Chapter 849: It Could Be Anyone
Father Yang did not neglect the customers in the queue because of Jian Ai’s arrival. However, he felt that the speed at which he processed the roast duck had increased.
Half an hour later, Father Yang finished handling the last customer’s duck and went to the yard.
“Child, you’re hungry, right? Uncle will give you some sliced duck to eat?” Father Yang looked at Jian Ai kindly and asked.
Jian Ai quickly waved her hand. “Uncle, don’t worry. I came over after eating.”
Father Yang nodded and sat opposite Jian Ai. He said, “Uncle should thank you for what happened last time…”
“Uncle Yang, you don’t have to be so polite,” Jian Ai said in a calm and gentle tone. “I’m leaving the capital tomorrow, so I came to see you and Xiaoman before I left. It’s fate that I met you two and even entered the police station together.”
Father Yang nodded in agreement. “It’s fate. You’re our family’s benefactor. If not for you, those people might have ruined my shop, eventually.”
The reputation of the roast duck restaurant had accumulated for over ten years, but it was only a matter of minutes to destroy it.
Only those who had experienced it themselves could understand how powerful rumors were. Therefore, Father Yang’s gratitude to Jian Ai came from the bottom of his heart. In Father Yang’s heart, Jian Ai had saved his life.
Seeing that Father Yang thanked her again before he could finish, Jian Ai couldn’t help but smile helplessly.
Changing the topic, Jian Ai looked at Father Yang and said, “Uncle Yang, when I came over just now, I passed by Golden Top Fresh in the prosperous area in front. I think that shop is not small, but is already closed.”
When he heard this, Father Yang felt exceptionally appeased. He immediately said, “That’s right. On the second day after the boss of Golden Top Fresh was arrested, the roast duck shop posted a notice of transfer.”
Golden Top Fresh Duck Restaurant had always been losing money under Shangyige’s suppression. Now that they had detained the boss for breaking the law, it was impossible for the roast duck restaurant to continue operating.
Jian Ai immediately looked at Father Yang and said, “Uncle Yang, I remember that you’ve always wanted to expand the shop, right? I think the location of that Golden Top Fresh is not bad. It’s close to your house, and it was previously a roast duck shop too. The equipment inside should be complete.”
When Father Yang heard this, he was stunned. After a while, he muttered, “You mean, you want me to take over the space of Golden Top Fresh?”
Jian Ai nodded.
Seeing this, Father Yang couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head. “It’s not that easy…”
“Is there a problem with the funds?” Jian Ai asked Father Yang.
Father Yang shook his head and looked at Jian Ai with a smile. “Child, Uncle won’t hide it from you. Although Uncle’s roast duck is cheaper than those big shops outside, Uncle still earned a lot of money after so many years.”
Jian Ai knew that Father Yang was not exaggerating because in her previous life, she knew how popular this roast duck restaurant was.
On second thought, Jian Ai said, “I know. Uncle mentioned before that some documents for the opening couldn’t be approved, right?”
Father Yang nodded. “It’s mainly because I don’t know who’s so bad, that Uncle Yang’s roast duck shop was considered the public enemy of the entire capital’s roast duck world, so anyone is possible.”
As he spoke, Father Yang couldn’t help but laugh at himself.
