Chapter 363 Preparations

Twenty-seven years ago, Wang Jianye traveled to this world and became a chef apprentice at Fengze Garden.

Twenty-seven years later, Wang Jianye became the head chef of Fengze Garden and a nationally renowned culinary master.

Wang Jianye and Chen Kejia met and fell in love. They went through ups and downs together for 25 years and had five children.

The eldest brother, Wang Mujia, is 23 years old this year. He has made outstanding contributions to the country's fertilizer industry. He is now an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and just married a wife named Zhang Qin this year.

The second child, Wang Bingbing, is 20 years old this year. She took part in the college entrance examination which was resumed in 78 and was admitted to Tsinghua University with excellent results. She studied materials science and engineering and is now about to graduate with a doctorate.

The third child, Wang Xuecheng, is 15 years old and is in his third year of high school.

The fourth child, Wang Wenxin, is 11 years old and is in the first year of high school.

The fifth child, Wang Brunei, is 8 years old this year and is in the first year of high school. He attends the same school as his older brothers and sisters.

The younger ones behind, although they have the same talents as Wang Mujia and Wang Bingbing, are also very outstanding.

However, Wang Jianye did not let them take the college entrance examination directly. Instead, he let them enter college step by step from junior high school and high school.

Wang Jianye and Chen Kejia had just met when Chen Kejia started working at the Sijiucheng Antibiotics Research Institute.

After so many years, Chen Kejia became the director of the institute with his solid achievements and prestige.

Chen Kejia led the team to overcome one problem after another and made contributions to the country's antibiotic cause.

Wang Jianye's mother, Zhang Lan, had already retired from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill and did not retain her job.

Because Wang Jianye's younger brothers and sisters were all very promising, they had no need for the worker positions at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

……

Wang Jianye discussed his idea of ​​opening a shop with his apprentices in the front yard of his home.

The apprentices all expressed their willingness to give up the high salaries at Fengzeyuan and follow Wang Jianye.

"Thank you for supporting me. I, Wang Jianye, will not treat you unfairly."

Wang Jianye's eyes swept across everyone's face and he raised the wine glass in his hand.

"Here, cheers."

With a clang, Wang Jianye's eleven disciples also raised their glasses.

[]~( ̄▽ ̄)~*
Drink it all in one gulp.

Chen Xiaoyang, Ma Hua, Wang Yijun, the Defu brothers, Cheng Jie... and other eleven apprentices not only have red cases, but also white cases.

Together with their apprentices, there are definitely enough people to support a restaurant.

Wang Jianye will have no shortage of chefs for the new restaurant he is about to open.

"Master, where are you going to open the restaurant?"

The eldest disciple Chen Xiaoyang asked curiously, and the rest of the disciples also looked over curiously.

Wang Jianye had already decided: "It's on Nanxinhua Street, in the Changdian area. My master has three shops facing the street there. They were rented out to others to open a dried fruit and preserved fruit shop.

I plan to take all of them, connect them together, and connect the yard behind the storefront, and renovate it so it can be used as a restaurant."

Master Luo passed away in 70 and left all his assets to his only disciple Wang Jianye.

Master Luo had no children during his lifetime. As a famous chef in the city, he earned a lot of money and used it to collect rent from his shop.

The courtyard Wang Jianye moved to in 53 was given to him by Master Luo. In addition to these two places, Master Luo also has properties in three or four other places, but the locations are not very good, so Wang Jianye only rents them out and they are not suitable for restaurants.

"That's great, Master. Now that we have a storefront and a business license, we can open the restaurant."

Chen Xiaoyang said with a smile.

ヽ(`)Ma Hua, Wang Yijun and others were also very excited.

After all, we have already got a glimpse of the fate. After the renovation, it won’t be long before the new restaurant can open for business.

It is such a wonderful thing that they can help the master to run the restaurant successfully and fulfill his long-cherished wish.

……

The owner of Fengze Garden, Jiang Rongqing, is too old and retired five years ago. Now the person who takes over the position of chairman of Fengze Garden is Jiang Rongqing’s son Jiang Qinfeng.

Wang Jianye has worked in Fengze Garden for so many years. Fengze Garden has always been very good to him and has always taken good care of his apprentices.

Therefore, before leaving Fengze Garden, Wang Jianye needed to make things clear with Jiang Qinfeng and handle the matter of taking over the kitchen so that Fengze Garden could continue to operate normally after Wang Jianye and his apprentices left.

"What? Master Wang, you're leaving?!"

Σ(っ°Д°;)っ Jiang Qinfeng widened his eyes, frowned his thick eyebrows, and his face was full of disbelief.

Wang Jianye nodded: "That's right, I want to leave Fengze Garden and start my own business. I can't work for others all my life."

Jiang Qinfeng panicked.

Wang Jianye is the head chef of Fengze Garden. With Wang Jianye around, Fengze Garden can continue to be popular, because many customers come to Fengze Garden to eat because of Wang Jianye's reputation.

If Wang Jianye were to leave now, Fengze Garden would lose a major attraction. In this case...

Jiang Qinfeng felt worse and worse, and asked hurriedly: "Master Wang, what about your disciples? Are they going with you?"

┐( ̄ヘ ̄)┌Wang Jianye said helplessly: "If they are willing to follow me, then there will be a place for them in my new restaurant."

Jiang Qinfeng clenched his fists, completely panicking: "But Master Wang, you can't take them all away. These chefs are the backbone of our Fengze Garden. If they are all gone at once, our Fengze Garden will probably go bankrupt."

ε=(ο`*)))Alas, Wang Jianye sighed: "Not only that, my apprentice's apprentices also want to follow me. I am also very distressed."

"Master Wang, this won't work. If so many people leave at once, our Fengze Garden will definitely be doomed!"

Jiang Qinfeng stood up suddenly, his face flushed with anxiety and veins exposed.

Fengzeyuan is a fifty-year-old restaurant. It has not been easy to get to where it is today despite all the ups and downs. Jiang Qinfeng does not want Fengzeyuan to be ruined in his hands.

"Master Wang, could you please persuade them not to take so many at once? We at Fengze Garden can't handle it."

Jiang Qinfeng played the emotional card with Wang Jianye: "Master Wang, look, we at Fengze Garden have never treated you and your disciples unfairly over the years, right?

You have food to eat, drinks to drink, and treatment to receive. You can't just walk away.

My father said that Fengze Garden is a small temple and you will leave sooner or later, but you left too suddenly and left me unprepared."

Wang Jianye said helplessly: "I'm not leaving right now, I just want to tell you in advance to let you know.

My restaurant had chosen a location, but had not yet renovated the storefronts, registered for a business license, or even decided on a menu.

It’s still quite a while before the opening. In the short term, my apprentices will not leave Fengze Garden.
Besides, the ones who are going with me are only my apprentices. As for the students that your father arranged for me, I have no intention of taking them with me.

They have been learning from me for so many years. Although their talent is a little lacking, they have reached the level of a chef. It is not a problem for them to support Fengze Garden..." (End of this chapter)
