In addition to a variety of good wines, Shi Xiaolei also brought back some dry goods that are difficult to buy here in the United States.

For example, the dried plum vegetables used to make plum vegetables and pork belly, spring bamboo shoots, morels, porcini mushrooms, chanterelles, and bamboo fungus picked and dried by the mountain people from the mountains, plus the more common vermicelli, yuba, Day lily, white fungus, fungus, etc... Three of the four snakeskin bags in the cargo compartment contained these things.

The remaining snakeskin bag contains some small items with Chinese characteristics.

Small lanterns, small hydrangeas, Chinese knots, painted facial masks, etc. Shi Xiaolei planned to use these things to decorate the store and add more Chinese characteristics.

"Yes, that's right."

"Lisa, move the pendant a little to the right, okay, that's it."

"Chappell, hang this painting over the counter. It's too close to the kitchen and it's easy for the oil smoke to catch on."

Although there were not many things, it still took a while to visit, and it also took some time to prepare the dishes. Before I knew it, it was around 11 o'clock in the morning, and customers started to come to the door.

Not daring to delay any longer, Shi Xiaolei rolled up his sleeves, got into the kitchen, and started taking orders for cooking.

I have to say that with the addition of a chef in the back kitchen, the efficiency is indeed much higher. No, after just over half an hour of work, Shi Xiaolei discovered a new experience that he had never encountered before - the speed at which the dishes were served in the back kitchen was actually faster than the speed at which the guests in the front ate. In other words, the kitchen even occasionally gets a few minutes of rest before the guests finish their meal and leave, that is, turn over the table to take the next order.

You know, when Shi Xiaolei was the only one in charge, he never had this kind of leisure.

As long as the stove is on, he has to keep frying and frying. It is not until three or four o'clock in the afternoon, when there are no customers, that he can leave the kitchen and take a short rest.

‘How about letting Lao He stay? ’ Suddenly, such an idea came into Shi Xiaolei’s mind.

Just do what comes to mind.

So, when the time advanced to the afternoon, Shi Xiaolei took the initiative to ask He Liangxi during the lunch break: "Old He, what are your plans next? Are you going to open a shop by yourself, or find a job in a restaurant?"

When asking questions, you still have to be more tactful.

After all, the other party is the nephew of his master, so they have to leave some room for each other. It is best not to fight to the end and make both parties embarrassed and unable to step down.

"I haven't thought about it yet." He Liangxi, who was sitting under the air-conditioning vent, picked up a towel and wiped his sweat. While thanking Lisa for bringing the iced Coke, he replied: "I don't think about it these days. Account, if you want to open a store, you will need at least 30,000 to 40,000 U.S. dollars in start-up capital. As you know, Boss Shi, my two children will be reporting here in a few days, so we have to set aside a sum of money for their tuition. After deducting the daily food, drink and rent, the little money I have left is still short of leaving the store."

After pausing for a moment and taking a sip of cold Coke, He Liangxi continued: "My uncle does have a little money. But as you know, he is an old man and has some senile diseases. Medical expenses here in the United States are not as cheap as in China... He has to keep his money just in case, and I have no intention of borrowing it from him."

"So? Are you planning to go to the bank to get a loan to open a store?" Following He Liangxi's words, Shi Xiaolei asked.

"Let's see, wait until my wife comes over, and discuss it with her." He Liangxi shook his head, with a bit of hesitation on his face: "It's not my business alone, it's a bit involved, I have to listen to her What should I say? And when I came here, she also said that she would mention this matter to her parents' family. If she could borrow some from my two uncles and bring it over, I wouldn't have to. Let’s stop thinking about the loan.”

In and out of the words, it all means ‘I prefer to open my own store’.

After hearing what he said, Shi Xiaolei had almost given up on the idea of ​​persuasion: "What about the address of the store? Lao He, have you decided where to open the store?"

"Not yet." He Liangxi shook his head again: "I plan to wait for the children to sign up and then go around their schools."

"Open a store near the school?"

"Yes. It's closer, so it's easier to take care of the children. Moreover, if you open a store near the school, your customer base will be guaranteed, so it should be easier to operate." At this point, He Liangxi sighed again: "I just don't know this. Is it the same as in China...I'm not worried that the rent of stores near the school is more expensive. I'm just worried that the habits of students here are different from those of children in China, and they won't deliberately choose restaurants closer to the school to eat."

"I don't know about that, but they should be able to give you some useful information." Shi Xiaolei laughed and pursed his lips at Lisa and the three of them who were enjoying a working meal.

"Yeah. When my family comes over and they decide to open a store, I'll ask them again." He Liangxi said seriously: "Think more before making a decision. It's never wrong to be on the safe side."

"That's right." Shi Xiaolei also nodded: "If there's anything I can do to help, just ask."

"I will, Boss Shi, thank you."

"What's there to thank you for? You are the master's cousin, and you have helped me so much. If I need help later, it is only right that I give you a hand." Shi Xiaolei smiled and stood up: "Yes. It’s almost time to rest, let’s eat too, we’ll have to continue working in a while.”

"Okay, let's eat first."

Just as he was talking, the crisp sound of wind chimes came from the door.

Turning around, I saw that it was 2B who opened the door and walked in.

"Eh? Why are you here?" Shi Xiaolei was not surprised by the unexpected arrival of 2B, but because there was a Yixian following behind her: "Didn't you say we were going to the Statue of Liberty for a walk? Are you done?"

"Well, I just finished reading." 2B smiled and nodded: "I originally planned to go back directly, but Yixian said he wanted to come over and have a look."

"oh oh."

Meeting Shi Xiaolei's gaze, Yixian's eyes were a little curious and a little eager to try: "Point to...that, Xiaolei, is there anything I can do to help?"

Ever since he learned that Shi Xiaolei had opened a small store in New York and was busy working in the store every day, Yixian had fantasized about coming to the store to help him and using his skills to contribute to the store more than once.

She was just a little worried that Shi Xiaolei would not agree, so she kept silent.

But now, when she came to the store, the thoughts she had hidden in her heart could not be suppressed anymore. She opened the lid called 'uneasiness' and quietly emerged.

"Help? No, Yixian, why did you suddenly..." Halfway through his words, he suddenly felt that the current situation was indeed in line with Yixian's character. Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but stop asking, with a faint bitter smile on his face.

Lisa, Claire, Chappell and He Liangxi were also a little surprised by Yixian's words.

"Boss." Chappell, who couldn't hold back, raised his hand and said, "Who is this little beauty? Aren't you going to introduce her to us?"
