Chapter 68: 68: Killing Two Birds with One Stone



Yang Tiancheng nodded in satisfaction and looked at Liu Yujuan, “Yu Juan, you need to be involved in this too. Start preparing. I’ll have you manage one of the stores. If you can make one store a success, promoting you afterward will also raise no objections.”

Liu Yujuan was thrilled, “Okay, you can count on me. I’ll make sure to manage the store well.”

“Good,” Yang Tiancheng nodded with satisfaction.

It might be an exaggeration to say that when one person achieves enlightenment, even their pets ascend to heaven.

But indeed, Yang Tiancheng becoming the CEO did mean raises and promotions for Liu Yujuan and Yang Jingsheng.

As for Zhao Yulu, working at a bank, that was none of his concern.

Bank jobs are pretty good anyway.

On this front, Zhao Yulu was doing rather well.

Relying on her capabilities, Zhao Yulu had secured a job at the bank.

After his son Yang Jingsheng graduated, he couldn’t find a good job and had to rely on his position as the deputy general manager to arrange a position for him at Meiwei Group.

Later on, he was promoted step by step until he became a department head.

If not for his influence, his son would likely be stuck at the bottom, and getting a raise or promotion would be as difficult as climbing to heaven.

Despite knowing this, Yang Jingsheng was his son, and he didn’t say anything about it.

It was sufficient that if his son lacked capability, he, as a father, had it.

After all, the money he earned was ultimately for his son.

And his daughter would eventually marry and leave.

Besides, she wasn’t his biological daughter, so naturally, he wouldn’t go out of his way for her.

In fact, if it weren’t for Zhao Yulu’s beauty and the high likelihood of her marrying into a good family, he’d be even less inclined to concern himself with her.

In his view, Zhao Yulu’s only use was to marry well and benefit the family.

That’s why he had Zhao Yulu break up with Xu Yang and had his son introduce her to Chen Guanglei.

If Zhao Yulu married Chen Guanglei, it would be a tremendous boon for the Yang family and aid his career.

Chen Guanglei’s father was a billionaire owner. Having such a connected family would naturally give him more clout in the company.

It would also create a safety net for the Yang family; if Meiwei Group ever went under, he could turn to Chen’s family—his in-laws—for a good job.

His plans were meticulously crafted, although the outcome would only be revealed with time.

Yang Jingsheng said, “Dad, I think the hot pot restaurant should be located where there’s a lot of foot traffic. Once you have a crowd, business naturally picks up.”

Yang Tiancheng nodded in agreement, “Exactly. In catering, especially for hot pot, it’s crucial to be where there’s high foot traffic. Only with enough people can the business thrive.”

Yang Jingsheng’s eyes shifted as he looked at Liu Yujuan and said, “Mom, I think the diner of your ex-husband would be a great choice for a hot pot restaurant.”

Yang Tiancheng’s eyes lit up, “You’re right, the foot traffic there is huge, with many office buildings and malls nearby. It’s an absolutely fantastic location. Otherwise, Xu Yang wouldn’t be able to run his small diner so well, afford to support his daughter in buying a house, and yet his location is still underutilized. With some revamping, we could definitely turn it into a hot pot restaurant.”

Speaking of which, he had a score to settle with Zhao Hai.

Back then, the two of them were working at Meiwei Group.

He succeeded in driving Zhao Hai out by using some schemes, became the manager, and gradually rose to the position of vice president.

Not only that, but he also managed to steal Liu Yujuan, Zhao Hai’s wife.

In the struggle against Zhao Hai, he was the definitive winner.

This time, in opening a chain of hotpot restaurants, if he could rent Zhao Hai’s little diner, Zhao Hai’s reaction would probably be very interesting.

The thought alone was quite exciting.

Yang Jingsheng said with a smile, “Mom, why don’t you talk to your ex-husband and let him rent the store to us? He doesn’t make much from that small diner anyway. This way, it would be a win-win situation. He could get some relief and retire early, right?”

Yang Tiancheng also said, “Yujuan, Jing Sheng is making sense. Give Zhao Hai a call.”

His tone was full of an air that brooked no refusal.

“Okay.” Liu Yujuan did not refuse, immediately took out her cell phone, and went to the balcony to make the call.

She came back shortly, looking somewhat upset.

“What, he didn’t agree to rent the store to us?” Yang Tiancheng asked with a frown.

“He said he would never rent it to us and told us to stop dreaming,” Liu Yujuan said with a displeased look.

Zhao Hai spoke very heartlessly, outright denying her request, not taking into account any past father-daughter relationship, which angered her greatly.

“He might just be temporarily unable to accept it. Do this, after work tomorrow, go to his diner and talk to him in person. If he’s willing to rent the store, we can slightly raise the rental price, there’s nothing wrong with that. After all, once the hotpot restaurant is booming, we can quickly earn back the rental fees,” Yang Tiancheng said.

“Then I’ll go talk to him tomorrow; I can’t believe I won’t be able to persuade him,” Liu Yujuan said.

Although it was Yang Jingsheng who first brought up this matter, it had Yang Tiancheng’s approval.

You could even say it was personally assigned by Yang Tiancheng himself.

This was about Yang Tiancheng’s hotpot franchise plan; it had to be a success.

She needed to prove her worth.

Only then could her life at home improve.

“Mom, I wish you success,” Yang Jingsheng said with a smile on his face, like someone looking forward to a good show.

This smile made Liu Yujuan quite uncomfortable, but she didn’t say anything.

“By the way, Yu Lu, you should go with your mom tomorrow as well,” Yang Tiancheng suddenly suggested, turning to look at Zhao Yulu.

“Can’t Mom just go by herself?” Zhao Yulu didn’t want to go.

“Having you there will make it more effective. No matter what, you are Zhao Hai’s biological daughter. Maybe if you say a word, your biological father might soften up and rent the store to us. You are now part of our Yang family, and should contribute to this matter as well,” Yang Tiancheng said.

“That’s right, my dear little sister, you should come along. Whether we can secure this store hinges on the two of you,” Yang Jingsheng’s face once again showed that inexplicable smile.

This smile was also something that Zhao Yulu found very annoying.

To tell the truth, if she had the means to rent an apartment outside, she would have moved out long ago.

With her salary, she could only afford a very poor place, nothing like the comfort of living at home.

“Alright, I’ll go with Mom tomorrow,” Zhao Yulu agreed reluctantly.
