Reborn 92's Business Tycoon

Chapter 475: Chapter 475: Revisiting the old days

A flight at 10 pm or later would still be catchable, but Boss Feng was now considered to have a modest fortune, and he would rather avoid red-eye flights if possible.

However, he didn't leave the next day either.

During the two days he was at home, his sister made breakfast in different ways. This morning it was a flaky pancake, crispy and golden brown, with minced meat and spring onions inside. A bite of it woke up his body, which had been a little sleepy.

'Delicious!' he said, giving it a thumbs-up.

'It's delicious, isn't it? We're planning to add it to the menu of the noodle shop recently,' Feng Yuxuan said.

'Is it troublesome to make it in bulk?' At present, apart from noodles, the noodle shop still only has two snacks on the menu: wheat cakes and sticky rice chicken.

'It's not too troublesome, just some new equipment,'

'Then do it, I have no objection,' as for issues such as the need to standardise, Feng Yiping didn't even need to mention it, his sister knew exactly what to do.

'With this addition, for the time being, three items will be enough, more than that is not a good thing,' Feng Yiping added.

'I know, it's not just something we picked at random. Last year we distributed some questionnaires in the store, and many people said that, especially in the morning, they still want to eat something fried. After the New Year, we thought about this. Deep-frying is too troublesome and unhealthy, but this pan-frying is just right.'

The food at the Old Home Taste Noodle House is all healthy, and there's nothing deep-fried, but sometimes our stomachs really want to eat something fried, even if it's gutter-fried.

For example, Feng Yiping, although he knows that deep-frying is unhealthy, even the well-known international fast food chains use the oil that has turned black to fry their food. By the same token, the standard of the roadside stalls is probably not high, but sometimes when you smell the aroma, you can't help but buy a handful of fried dough sticks or a spring roll.

'If you do your homework, your parents will agree,' Feng Yiping says. Of course, the big decision still needs the approval of his parents.

'Knock, knock,' Feng Yiping hears someone knocking on the door early in the morning. 'Yiping, are you up?' It's Xiao Zhijie's voice.

What could it be this early in the morning?

Feng Yiping went to the door with oil dripping from his lips. Not only Xiao Zhijie, but also Wang Changning was there. 'Wow, it smells good, sister, what are you cooking?' Xiao Zhijie was very happy today, smiling like a bun, and he darted in like he knew the way.

'Lasagna, eat it while it's hot, I'll make more if it's not enough,'

'Why is he so happy? Why are you up so early too?' Feng Yiping asked Wang Changning.

'Forget it,' Wang Changning said with a face full of distress, 'He spent half an hour on the phone with me last night, and then called me again at the crack of dawn to make an appointment to come and see you,'

'Did Qiu Ling call him or did Principal Zhang call him?' Feng Yiping guessed that this was the case, otherwise why would Xiao Zhijie, who had been so miserable the previous two days, be so happy today.

'We called them both, otherwise why would he be so happy?' Wang Changning laughed and gave Xiao Zhijie, who was munching on a pizza, a little tap on the head.

Xiao Zhijie wasn't at all annoyed. 'Our work hasn't been in vain. Qiuling and my family have agreed to come to the provincial capital to go to primary school,'

Small places have the comforts of small places, and big cities have the excitement of big cities. Before Feng Yiping's dream or delusion has been realised, the comforts of the town are still no match for the excitement of the provincial capital.

During the few days that Principal Zhang was in the provincial capital, he truly felt Feng Yiping's strength and also the friendship between the three of them. After some consideration, he realised that as long as his daughter's level could keep up, it would be much more realistic for her to take a position as a director of instruction at a key primary school in Binjiang District than for him to operate on his own and have his daughter become a leader at the town's middle school.

What's more, Feng Yiping's words about the future education of his grandchildren had even more of an impact on him.

'Congratulations!' Feng Yiping followed the old rules and said, "With such a happy occasion that achieves two things, Boss Xiao, how are you going to treat your guests?'

'I came to see you early in the morning, didn't I? Sis, do you have time for lunch? Join us for dinner,'

Feng Yuxuan came out with a plate of freshly baked lasagna, "I don't have time, you guys eat by yourselves, but one thing, drink less, if you drink, Yiping, don't drive.'

'Tell me, where do you want to eat? Chinese food, Western food, or fresh seafood?' Xiao Zhijie sat in the boss's seat in the back, crossed his legs, and looked very pleased with himself.

He couldn't help being happy. Zhang Qiuling's arrival in the provincial capital meant that all his previous worries had vanished, and his spring had also arrived. Although they couldn't live together, they were so close that it would be easy to get together two or three times a week, wouldn't it?

'I think we should eat at home, as we used to, instead of eating out. It's so convenient, and if we drink too much, we can just go to bed,' Wang Changning suggested.

'I think that's a good idea,' Feng Yiping agreed.

'Okay, then, shall we go to your place or mine?' Xiao Zhijie asked Wang Changning.

'Your place, just the three of us,' Wang Changning said.

It seems that Auntie was right: once a man has a steady girlfriend or is married, he really misses the days when he was single and hanging out with his buddies.

In Xiao Zhijie's quiet kitchen, it had been lively since the morning. The two stoves were firing on all cylinders, with Feng Yiping making braised pork and Wang Changning making braised carp. The host, Xiao Zhijie, who had the worst cooking skills because he had so many sisters, was last to cook, making chicken soup with vegetables and steaming shrimp.

Feng Yiping's dish is actually the easiest. Once the preliminary preparation is done, it just needs to be simmered over a low heat. He is watching 'April Rhapsody' in the living room. Although the movie is also about the concept of 'torture as love', Huang Xiaochu has not yet put on weight, Yi Nengjing has not yet cheated on her boyfriend, and Zhou Xun is really quite pretty. Now, there is no frown lines on his face, and his appearance is quite high, so it's a good way to kill time.

In fact, there is also a scene in the kitchen at this time. Wang Changning and Xiao Zhijie, although they have already grown up from junior high school students to college students, there is no progress in their words. They are still attacking and insulting each other, just like they used to do in the rented apartment in the dormitory building of the rural hospital.

The portions were as big as ever: three catty of three-layered streaky pork served in a casserole, Wang Changning's braised crucian carp, a full bowl of six fish, a large portion of chicken soup with vegetable hearts, one and a half pounds of steamed shrimp, and sliced beef that had already been prepared.

Feng Yiping's proposal to drink wine was unanimously rejected by the two of them. 'It's sour and not very tasty,' Xiao Zhijie laughed and took out the Maotai he had just bought at the supermarket. 'These are the only two bottles for lunch today,'

it looked like they were going to drink until they got drunk at lunch today.

Today's meal was the same. They didn't talk about anything serious, and the most they talked about were the hard times in junior high school. Four or five years ago, those days that made them feel very stressed and miserable were actually very interesting when they thought about them now.

They also talked about some things after they went to college, focusing on the department and school flowers of their respective schools. Even though they don't have those thoughts now, they can't help but take a few extra looks when they see them normally.

When Feng Yiping said that Wen Hong also worked at Youjia, Xiao Zhijie said with a mischievous smile, 'You're a refuge for female classmates. Look, Jingping, Wang Jinju, Hu Junting, Lin Hui are also doing business with you, and now there's Wen Hong to add to the mix.'

Wang Changning didn't yet have the same level of drinking capacity as later on, and was almost at his limit at this point, 'You're the best, you've wooed the principal's daughter!'

Xiao Zhijie laughed foolishly when he heard this, like a complete idiot.

Although they didn't talk about anything serious, this was probably the most relaxed day of the year for the three of them. Two bottles of high-proof liquor were unknowingly drunk bit by bit, and when they were woken up by the phone, Feng Yiping didn't quite remember how it ended, and he found himself sleeping in bed.
