At the beginning of June, Lu Yi negotiated a lease contract for a shop in Wanhua Lane, with a rent of 8,000 yuan per month. The shop is a single-storey structure with an area of about 350 square meters, which is slightly larger than the first store on Dongguan Street. However, its location is close to the core business district of Ningcheng, so the rent is much higher than that of a store.

As the second store of Yuxiang Restaurant, Geng Zhiyuan decided to raise its decoration grade by one level, and took the decoration style of the store as a classic.

Money is needed for shop rent, decoration, and furniture, and in early June, each of the three shareholders paid part of the share capital as start-up capital. Geng Zhiyuan took out 80,000 yuan of shares at one time, Pang Dong paid 40,000 yuan, and Yu Qinghe paid 20,000 yuan, making a total of 140,000 yuan of share capital.

Since joining the work, he has saved a total of more than 81,000 yuan in wages, bonuses, subsidies and restaurant dividends, and after taking out 80,000 yuan this time, Geng Zhiyuan has become a veritable poor bastard, with only a pitiful thousand yuan left.

People are poor and short of breath, and horses are thin and long-haired. With no money in his hand, Geng Zhiyuan didn't dare to date Lin Chu. Because dating also has to be an economic account, it takes at least seventy or eighty yuan to watch a movie, and if you have a coffee and a meal, it will definitely cost more than two hundred yuan. Based on Geng Zhiyuan's monthly salary of more than 500 yuan, for a date at such a price, you have to drink the northwest wind about two or three times a month.

Before Geng Zhiyuan could figure out a money-saving way to date, Lu Yi and Pang Dong found him in a hurry.

"Zhiyuan, the food supervision department doesn't go through the formalities for us, what can we do?" Lu Yi said anxiously.

Geng Zhiyuan was puzzled: "Xiaodong, what's going on?"

Pang Dong complained: "I don't know what's going on, our application materials are fine, but the Food and Drug Administration won't give it to us." Today it doesn't work, tomorrow it says it doesn't work, anyway, there is always something that doesn't work. I'm almost lame, and people just won't let go. ”

There must be a demon in everything, Geng Zhiyuan said: "You didn't inquire, what is the reason?"

"I inquired, and I only said that it was strict and responsible for the health of the people. Pang Dong said.

"Hmph!" Geng Zhiyuan sneered: "What about the deceitful ghosts? There must be a reason in it." ”

"We have to find someone, or we don't know what the problem is. Pang Dong suggested.

"yes, I'll have to ask someone who understands. But who are you looking for?" Geng Zhiyuan doesn't know many people in the provincial capital, and the food and drug administration system is even more blind, and no one knows anyone, where can I find someone to ask?

"Catering Service License", "Health License" and "Food Circulation License" all need to be handled by the Food and Drug Administration, without these three certificates, the restaurant cannot be opened at all.

Geng Zhiyuan was so worried that he pulled his hair, and the shortcomings of having no connections in the provincial capital were exposed at this time. China is a relational society, and the more underdeveloped the region, the more so, and if there is no relationship, it is sometimes difficult to get things done.

"Hey, that's right!" Pang Dong patted his head violently and said, "Why am I confused?" Old Geng, Lin Chu's father is a department-level leader, he may be able to help. ”

"Lin Chu?" Geng Zhiyuan had a headache, just thinking about how to spend less money on a date, and now he has to beg someone, how can he spend less money?

"You lend me two thousand dollars. Geng Zhiyuan could only turn to Pang Dong for help.

Pang Dong was stunned: "You asked me to borrow money? You just gave you nearly 50,000 yuan last month, and you didn't spend it?"

"Nonsense, didn't I go all into the new store?" Geng Zhiyuan had to say truthfully: "I only have more than 1,000 left in my pocket now, and falling in love is a costly job, how can this money be enough?"

"I'm sorry, old Geng ......" Pang Dong said embarrassedly: "I don't have much money on me, my money is controlled by Wang Jin, and the poor jingle in my pocket." ”

"You...... Alas!" Geng Zhiyuan said deflatedly: "I didn't expect you to be as good as me." ”

Lu Yi looked at the two bosses in front of him who were complaining to each other and crying poor, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't cry poor." I have money, I'll lend it to you. ”

The next night, Geng Zhiyuan invited Lin Chu to Yuxiang Restaurant for dinner. When he entered the restaurant, Lin Chufang knew that this was an industry run by her boyfriend and Pang Dong.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Lin Chu complained: "You open a restaurant, let's go to eat somewhere else, why don't you let yourself earn this money?"

"Aren't you afraid that you will think I am not doing my job?" Geng Zhiyuan coaxed and persuaded: "Besides, we can't eat hot pot every day, we have to eat it elsewhere." ”

"Do you make money here?" asked Lin Chu as he looked around at the full number of diners.

"It's okay, barely profitable. Geng Zhiyuan said insincerely.

Lin Chu pouted and said, "Go! Who are you fooling? I'm your girlfriend, and you're still lying to me?"

Geng Zhiyuan sneered: "I can earn a little, not a lot." ”

Lin Chu knew that the relationship between the two people had not yet reached the point of being honest with each other, so he pouted and smiled: "If you open a store again, I also want to invest." ”

"Really?" Geng Zhiyuan glanced at her and asked, "How much can you vote?"

Lin Chu turned his mind, stretched out a hand and said, "This number, fifty thousand yuan." ”

"In addition to money,......" Lin Chu withdrew his hand and said, "I can also find talents for you." Don't forget, I'm from Ningcheng, and I have an advantage over you as a foreigner. ”

Geng Zhiyuan's heart moved, and he said secretly: "Lin Chu is really a wonderful fate sent by God. I was in need of help, and she came just in time, what an angel for me!"

"I need you to help me right now. "Until now, Geng Zhiyuan no longer hides it, and 1510 will explain the problems encountered by the second store in detail.

Lin Chu smiled and said, "What should I do? This is easy to do, one of my best friends is in the Food and Drug Administration, tomorrow I will ask her to see which link I am stuck in?"

The problem that gave Geng Zhiyuan a headache turned out to be a trivial matter to Lin Chu, and he was overjoyed: "Oh, I have to thank you." ”

Lin Chu smiled evilly: "How can you thank me?"

Geng Zhiyuan's heart froze, and he hurriedly said: "Let you fall." ”

Lin Chuzhi said proudly: "I don't ask for anything else, you have to call me Chuchu in the future, you can't call me by my full name." ”

Geng Zhiyuan couldn't ask for it, so he opened his mouth and came: "Chu Chu ......"

Lin Chu changed color and said: "It's not good, it's sweet, come again." ”

Geng Zhiyuan looked at the crowd around him in embarrassment, and whispered: "There are too many people, let's get in the car and call again." ”

Men want face, Lin Chu would not be stupid enough to slap his man's face in public, and immediately laughed arrogantly: "When you get in the car, you have to call me all the way." ”

After getting into the car, he arrived at the design institute before he called twice, and Geng Zhiyuan was about to get out of the car, when he found that Lin Chu was looking at him with affection and love. Fascinated by the confusion, Geng Zhiyuan didn't know where he got the courage, so he hugged Lin Chu and kissed him.

With a long kiss, Lin Chu's cheeks turned crimson with shame, and he said angrily: "You made me unable to drive the car." ”

"Go sit with me for a while, it's still early anyway. ”

Lin Chu was already in the spring, where was he willing to part with his boyfriend, and immediately nodded and said, "Well, you sit down, I'll drive." ”

Parking the car in the courtyard, Geng Zhiyuan took his girlfriend into the office building, and just arrived on the seventh floor along the stairs, when he met Jia Rui humming a little song and walking downstairs. The enemy's eyes were very red when they met, Jia Rui glared at Geng Zhiyuan fiercely, and then he was dumbfounded.

Is this a heavenly immortal? Why is it so beautiful? Jia Rui's small eyes widened, staring at Lin Chu's delicate face, and he didn't know how to step down.

When Lin Chu saw a lewd man looking at him in a daze, he was immediately unhappy, and dodged behind Geng Zhiyuan. Geng Zhiyuan saw Jia Rui's gaffe, so he had to shout: "Jia Gong, are you working overtime?"

"Oh, uh, overtime...... Overtime. Jia Rui came back to his senses, prevaricated a few words and hurriedly went downstairs.

"Who is this, why is it so obscene?" Lin Chu asked quietly.

Geng Zhiyuan waved his hand silently, led her into his office, and then said, "A colleague named Jia Rui has a lot to do with me. ”

"Oh?" Lin Chu became interested and asked, "Why don't you deal with it, you tell me." ”

Geng Zhiyuan smiled indifferently and briefly said the grievances between him and Jia Rui.

Lin Chu smiled and said, "Small-bellied chicken intestines, don't be like him." ”

"Hmph, I'd have been like him, I'd have already cleaned him up. Geng Zhiyuan took out a disposable paper cup and poured a glass of water for Lin Chu: "Take a sip of boiled water, it's too late to make tea." ”

"Thank you. Lin Chu took the cup and looked at the office and said, "You're pretty good here." ”

"Let's make up for it, the place where our engineers work is not as rich as your telecommunications bureau. ”

Lin Chu smiled mischievously, and suddenly asked, "How many girls have you brought here?"

Geng Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement: "Why are you asking this?"

Lin Chu took a sip of water and said quietly: "I just want to know, how many ex-girlfriends you had before me." ”

"What about you?" Geng Zhiyuan retorted, "Can you tell me how many ex-boyfriends you have?"

"Not one!" Lin Chu swore solemnly: "There are dozens of people who have met, and there are more than a dozen people who have met two or three times, but ......"

"But what?"

Lin Chu blushed and bowed his head and said, "You are the only one who has been kissed." ”

Geng Zhiyuan was moved in his heart, and came to her side to hug her and said: "I also tell you the truth, my ex-girlfriend has had three, and only one has kissed, and you are the second." ”

Lin Chu's face sank and said, "Who is that girl?"

Geng Zhiyuan sighed and told him about his past with Wei Xiao one by one. Lin Chu said emotionally after hearing this: "It's a pity for the two of you, Wei Xiao is really confused! Oh, no......

She suddenly had an epiphany: "Wei Xiao is afraid that he still has an old relationship with Luo Yang, and he will break the connection, otherwise he will never go to him for help." If it were me, even if Luo Yang helped me save my father, I wouldn't promise it in person, because I still have someone I love. ”

What Lin Chu guessed, Geng Zhiyuan had also thought of, but the matter had come to this point, and it didn't matter if he understood the truth or not, because the past could not be turned back, and Wei Xiao could not return to himself.

"Now the person I love is you!Chu Chu, I love you!" Geng Zhi was far away, and confessed with Lin Chu in his arms.

"Zhiyuan......" Lin Chu snuggled in his arms and murmured: "I finally chose you, don't let me down." ”

Geng Zhiyuan gently kissed her smooth forehead and said: "If I can meet you on a blind date, this is the fate that God has given us, I will cherish you, Chu Chu!"

"Well......" The two hugged each other tightly, hoping that the sweet moment would never stop and last.
