Chapter 287 Dismissal

Yuli responded. "You're right, we've already reduced the labor force..."

"Stop talking, I don't want to hear about the details of your business, it's not my concern!"

The landlord interrupted Yu Li. "In such a prime location, you can't make any money, so you should reflect on yourself!"

"Oh, I have to think about it, and then I will answer you?" Yu Li asked.

"Okay, I'll give you a week to think about it." The landlord nodded. "If you don't accept the price increase, you should close down, and I will rent it to someone else!"

As soon as the words fell, the landlord left the scene.

Looking at his receding back, Yu Li stomped her feet fiercely. "This guy only has money in his eyes, he is really ruthless!"

When Yu Li came home, Yan Jiecheng was also at home.

"You look so ugly today, do you feel uncomfortable there?" Yan Xiecheng asked.

"I encountered something annoying today." Yu Li responded.

"What is it?"

"The landlord told me that he wanted to raise the price." Yu Li told Yan Xiecheng what happened.

"We are acquaintances with him, so there is no room for negotiation?" Yan Jiecheng responded.

"I think his attitude is very firm, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to give in!" Yu Li shook her head. "I know that the catering business on this street is booming, and sooner or later he will increase the price, but I didn't expect it to be so soon!"

"As the saying goes, icing on the cake is easy, but giving charcoal in the snow is hard!" Yan Jiecheng comforted her. "I believe that there must be a way for the car to go to the front of the mountain. You don't have to worry too much. Be careful not to get sick!"

"Do you think I want to be angry?!" Yu Li sighed. "The cash flow in the store is very poor now, I don't know how long it can last!"

Yan Jiecheng was eager to learn from his wits. "I thought of a way!"

"Tell me quickly, don't be a fool!" Yu Li urged.

"My father once said before that he should have invested in restaurants instead of just collecting interest, which shows that he is also optimistic about the development prospects of restaurants." Yan Xiecheng said. "Now that we are in trouble, why not ask him for help?"

"Your father is so stingy, will he help us?"

Yu Li questioned.

"That's what he said at the beginning, I don't think he'd go back on his word!" Yan Jiecheng responded. "Besides, there is no other good way now, I still want to try."

"You're right, but I don't want to talk to him!" Yu Li gestured. "Come and talk to him, whether or not the deal will be successful depends on your ability!"

Yan Jiecheng remained silent.

"You are the eldest son in your family, and other people's parents support the eldest son unconditionally!" Yu Li encouraged Yan Xiecheng. "Don't be afraid of him, you have to reason with him and express your thoughts bravely!"

"Honey, what you said makes sense!" Yan Xiecheng agreed.

"I still remember the last time your father asked you for the cost of raising him. At that time, you argued hard and refuted him speechless!" Yu Li thought after thinking for a while.

Yan Xiecheng agreed. "That's right, my aura completely suppressed him at that time!"

"You have to completely suppress him like last time, and let him support us with money!" Yu Li paused and added. "No, don't tell him that you support us, but support you."

"What's the difference between the two?" Yan Jiecheng asked with a curious expression on his face.

"Of course there is a difference. I don't want to see him show off in front of me!" Yu Li responded. "You are a family, and I am not your Yan family!"

"Honey, you are also part of our family." Yan Jiecheng tried to convince Yu Li.

"How much money he spends to support you is a matter for your father and son, and has nothing to do with me!" Yu Li shook her head. "Don't show off in front of me, I hate seeing him like that, taking a little money is like giving a big favor!"

"You don't get along with him, how can I have the nerve to ask him for money?" Yan Jiecheng thought. "One side is the wife, the other side is the parents, and neither side can afford to offend. This is really an impossible way!"

"We are not young anymore, but we are not yet ready to retire." Yu Libai glanced at Yan Xiecheng. "This restaurant is our business. For our own business, we must persevere no matter how hard and tiring we are!"

Yan Jiecheng nodded after thinking for a moment. "Don't worry, this matter is on me."

"Well, I'm waiting for your good news!"

Yan Jiecheng came to look for Yan Bugui.

He said straight to the point. "Dad, there is a problem in the store, and I want to ask you for help!"

"Oh, the business in your store was booming before, why didn't it stop all of a sudden?" Yan Bugui responded with a curious expression on his face.

"Silly Zhu is playing tricks. He holds all the cooking secrets in his hands, and he doesn't even tell Fatty where to buy the seasoning." Yan Xiecheng complained. "Fatty's poor craftsmanship and not telling us the truth has caused our store's business to plummet; but the landlord has raised prices, and now the store's cash flow is a problem!"

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and find a solution!" Yan Bugui showed an anxious look on his face.

"We asked Fatty to buy seasonings, but the dishes he cooked still didn't taste authentic." Yan Xiecheng explained. "I believe that after this period of time, business will turn around!"

Yan Bugui remained silent.

"Dad, you said before that you wanted to take a stake in our restaurant, and now the opportunity has come." Yan Jiecheng went straight to the point.

"Did I say that?" Yan Bugui pretended to be confused.

"Mom, you were there at the time, please remind Dad!" Yan Jiecheng turned to look at the third mother.

The three mothers shook their heads. "I'm old and my memory is bad!"

"Mom and Dad, although you have three sons and one daughter, they don't come to visit you during the Chinese New Year. They don't care about you two elders at all!" Yan Xiecheng tried to persuade Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui remained silent.

"Do you still remember the last time you were driven out of the security shed for the sake of timber?" Yan Xiecheng continued to persuade after a pause. "At that time, I was almost beaten by Jie Mine in order to protect the second elder. Later, Qin Huairu took us to Xu Damao's house. She said that Xu Damao just refused to let you live, and I had a conflict with Banggen again! I defended the second elder like this. Do you have the heart to watch the restaurant open when you encounter difficulties?"

"Okay, stop talking!" Yan Bugui interrupted him. "As the saying goes, the palms and backs of your hands are full of meat! Although you are the eldest son, Jie Mine and the others are also my children. I will treat them equally and not favor you too much!"

"Then you mean that you are not going to buy shares?!" Yan Jiecheng showed a disappointed expression.

"Your mother and I are both old and not in good health. We need to save some money for retirement!" Yan Bugui refused his request to buy shares.

"We are doing this to help you, the younger generation, reduce the burden, and let you concentrate on running your business well!"

"Dad, your words don't count!" Yan Jiecheng shook his head.

"No, I don't think you have found the root of the problem." Yan Bugui responded.

"Dad, what do you mean by that?" Yan Jiecheng showed a confused expression.

"On the surface, you are short of money! But in fact, you lost the signboard of Shazhu, which caused the business to plummet!" Yan Bugui reminded him.
