"And, when we transfer the shop, we're also transferring all those chefs and workers to you!"
"This way, it can save you a lot of trouble!"
Zhao Feiyan had been suppressing her emotions all along.
But Zhao Dajun, not only did he not know when to stop, but he kept pushing his luck.
Finally, Zhao Dajun completely enraged Zhao Feiyan.
Zhao Feiyan decided to stop caring about family ties and face, and said loudly.
"Zhao Dajun, I've tolerated you for a long time. Our family has indeed made some money doing business, so what?"
"The money we earn is our family's money, what does it have to do with you?"
"Although I am also a daughter of the Zhao family, I am now a married woman!"
"No matter what I do, I must put my husband first!"
"Otherwise, our family won't be able to go on living!"
At this moment, Zhao Dajun slammed the table and stood up.
"Zhao Feiyan, are you speaking human words? You dare say such things in front of Dad and Mom?"
"So, they raised you, their daughter, for nothing, right?"
"Alright, both of you, stop arguing!"
At the critical moment, Zhao Tianhai spoke up: "We are all family, we can't let such a small matter damage our harmony!"
"Since Feiyan is unwilling to take over the Moon Restaurant, then so be it!"
"It's better to close the restaurant as soon as possible, and it can save on quite a bit of wages for the workers!"
"The restaurant continuing like this, every day we persist, we lose more money, it's really not worth it!"
"Sigh!" Jiang Aiying also sighed, wanting to say something, but in the end, said nothing.
What could Jiang Aiying say?
The Moon Restaurant's current predicament was entirely Zhao Dajun's own doing.
Zhao Dajun was an adult, and an adult should take responsibility for his actions.
If you ruin the restaurant, why should others pay for your mistakes?
"How about this!"
Finally, Zhao Feiyan couldn't bear to disappoint her parents, and added.
"If the Moon Restaurant really can't be transferred, I can buy the equipment from the restaurant!"
"Our family's restaurant can use it anyway, and their restaurant's lease is about to expire!"
"Once all the restaurant equipment is sold, there's basically nothing left!"
"Okay, then it's settled!"
Zhao Dajun was about to refuse again, but was interrupted by Chen Yue.
"Tomorrow, we will pack up all the tables, chairs, pots, and pans from the restaurant and bring them over."
"We'll count them in person, and I'll transfer everything to you."
"Okay, then it's settled!"
Zhao Feiyan's final decision was a godsend for Chen Yue.
The lease for the Moon Restaurant was basically about to expire.
Every day the restaurant was open, it incurred costs for ingredients, labor, and rent.
Closing it directly would save a lot of money.
Selling all the restaurant equipment to Zhao Feiyan, although it couldn't cover all the losses.
At least, it could help the bankrupt restaurant recover a little bit!
Otherwise, all these things brought home would just be a pile of useless junk, annoying to look at.
Zhao Dajun's blind opposition was because he was stubbornly refusing to admit his failure.
But Chen Yue, on the other hand, was quite flexible.
Chen Yue knew that the Moon Restaurant was completely finished and there was no need to persist any longer.
...
The next morning, Zhao Dajun and his wife packed up all the restaurant equipment and brought it to Feiyan Restaurant, handing it over to Zhao Feiyan.
These were all used items, but Chen Yue sold them to Zhao Feiyan at new prices.
Zhao Feiyan only glanced at the bill and immediately paid them.
Chen Yue, after receiving the money, was overjoyed.
Zhao Dajun, however, still had a rigid, stern face.
Zhao Feiyan didn't haggle with him over this.
After all, Zhao Dajun was a man who valued his reputation.
Now that the Moon Restaurant had gone bankrupt, it had dealt a huge blow to Zhao Dajun's pride.
Zhao Dajun was currently in a heavy mood, and Zhao Feiyan didn't want to bother with him.
After giving the money to Chen Yue, Zhao Feiyan invited Chen Yue and the others to stay for lunch at the restaurant.
Zhao Feiyan herself, however, left Feiyan Restaurant alone.
After watching Zhao Feiyan leave, Chen Yue went to find Zhao Tianhai.
"Dad, our Moon Restaurant is completely bankrupt now. Although I'm still not reconciled, this is how it has to be!"
Zhao Tianhai responded with comfort: "It's alright Chen Yue, don't be too anxious!"
"Victory and defeat are common in warfare. This time, you must have learned quite a few lessons from your failure!"
"If there's a chance in the future, perhaps we can make a comeback!"
"Go home and rest for a while. Have Dajun go back to work at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill."
"He's a technician, and as long as he works hard, he can earn enough to support the family!"
Chen Yue said with a solemn tone: "Dad, Dajun will consider his work situation himself."
"Now, I want to talk to you about something else."
"What is it?" Zhao Tianhai inquired.
Chen Yue continued: "Dad, I'm idle now, and I want to stay and work at Feiyan Restaurant!"
"Ah, you want to stay and work at Feiyan Restaurant?"
Zhao Tianhai's brows furrowed: "Can that work? You were the proprietress of the Moon Restaurant before!"
"I can't make decisions about the matters at Feiyan Restaurant, that's up to Feiyan herself!"
"Why don't we discuss this later, and everyone can try not to be so hasty for now?"
"Dad, you've misunderstood!"
Chen Yue replied with a smile: "I don't want to come to the restaurant to be a proprietress!"
"I'm just bored at home and want to find a job!"
"Just let Feiyan arrange any position for me, even if it's a waitress!"
"We're all family anyway, it's just helping each other out!"
"Uh... Alright then!"
Zhao Tianhai nodded, and reluctantly agreed.
Chen Yue, this woman, was a genuinely intelligent person, her IQ was much higher than Zhao Dajun's.
After all, Chen Yue was Zhao Feiyan's sister-in-law.
Zhao Feiyan would either refuse to arrange a job for Chen Yue, or if she did arrange a job, she would definitely not arrange it as a waitress!
She would definitely arrange a comfortable and easy job for Chen Yue!
