Manhattan's Chinatown, where Lee's grandfather, Li Rong's restaurant, is located. Pen, Fun, Court www.biquge.info This Chinatown is unlike any other Chinatown in the United States.

Most of the Chinese people gathered in other Chinatowns also serve most Chinese, although I don't want to say that, but the geographical location and security situation of most Chinatowns in the United States are not very good.

But this part of Manhattan is different.

This Chinatown is adjacent to Wall Street, close to the New York City Hall, and just a stone's throw from the famous Broadway.

It's one of the most prime locations in New York City, and even Manhattan's Chinatown has become a recommended attraction in New York travel magazines.

The shops here are not exclusively for Chinese, and there are many people of different ethnicities who come here to shop or dine.

Mr・Li is located in one of the best areas of the street. This is what Li Jie's grandfather has spent a lifetime working hard to achieve.

It is a large restaurant with 50 countertops, and there are also 12 private rooms that can be found in 12 Chinese restaurants.

Today is a day worth celebrating, because Li Jie's grandfather, Mr. Li Rong, has officially purchased this property, and from today onwards, the restaurant will be completely his.

As a celebration, Li Rong invited many neighbors from Chinatown and friends from the Overseas Chinese Association to come to dinner. As a Chinese, no matter where I go, the tradition of liking excitement has never changed.

As Li Jie's friends, Peter and Harry also came to say hello to his grandfather, which was a sign of respect for the old man's traditions, and they also brought their girlfriends with them.

"Is this your restaurant?" asked Li Kit, as the weather in New York turned cold in October, Mary Jane, who was wearing a goose yellow coat, rubbed her cold little hands.

"Yes, welcome to you. Li Jie was accompanying Harry and Peter to the introduction. "This is my grandfather's restaurant, to be exact. ”

"My parents weren't much interested in inheriting the restaurant. ”

"But you're sure you'll be a good boss, and you'll be able to make this restaurant even more prosperous, and even get featured in world-class food magazines." Gwen put her arm around Peter and smiled.

"yes, come in, students. Li Jie pushed open the door of the restaurant and invited everyone to enter. "Welcome to Mr. Li. ”

This is a large restaurant with nearly 400 square meters, and the 50 tables are placed in the spacious hall and are not crowded at all.

Each table is kept at the right distance so that diners don't feel like they're sitting on an island, or they get too close to each other to hear the conversation next door.

The second floor is home to twelve private rooms.

Wooden partitions and traditional Chinese carved wooden doors dominate the restaurant's décor, with unpainted elm doors and window grilles placed on the walls of the restaurant.

This brings a Chinese twist to the restaurant without being too eye-catching.

There are many Chinese restaurants in foreign countries, in the decoration will use a large number of Chinese red as the main color, of course, this is not to say that this color is not good, but as a wake-up color, strong red for too long will give some people a sense of unease.

On the other hand, mr・li's decoration style is more natural style, and the furniture and decoration style are closer to the simple Ming style.

This is unique among Chinese restaurants in the United States that are predominantly decorated in the Qing style.

"Wow, this Chinese restaurant doesn't look like anything I've been to before. Gwen glanced up and down at the restaurant. "It feels more relaxed here, not as restrained as a typical Chinese restaurant. ”

"Yes, Jason's restaurant is my favorite Chinese restaurant. Peter shook Gwen's small hand and said.

"Well, Jason, where is our master today? I brought a good champagne as a gift. Harry, with champagne in his hand as a congratulatory gift, was looking for Li Rong everywhere.

"Come on guys, upstairs. Li Jie led everyone to a private room on the second floor, and pushed open the door, his parents Li En and Jia Sili and grandfather Li Rong were all in the room.

And the fellow villagers and neighbors invited by his grandfather Li Rong were in several other boxes.

"Hello Uncle Enge, Aunt Gasley, and Grandpa Rong. Peter and Harry greeted Leekit's elders with two beautiful girls.

"It was a gift I brought, a nice bottle of champagne that my father picked for me. Harry said as he handed the gift he had brought to Li Rong.

"Oh~ and mine, this is a brownie I made with Gwen, it's not too good, but I still hope you like it. Peter said as he took out his own gift.

"Thank you, thank you Harry, and thank you Peter. Li Rong smiled and accepted the gifts handed over by the two children.

Li Rong is 65 years old this year, but his body is still very strong and his lifestyle is very healthy. Go to bed and eat on time every day, and maintain a moderate amount of aerobic exercise and muscle building.

This makes Li Rong look just like a middle-aged man in his early fifties, and he can't see his old age at all.

As an old man who has experienced many ups and downs, Li Rong has always been in a peaceful state of mind, and he is a master of Chinese cooking in the United States.

After years of struggle, it was his dream to finally have a restaurant of his own, and mr・li was not a small restaurant on the side of the road.

Although their son and daughter-in-law are clearly not interested in inheriting the restaurant, they prefer to wear a suit to commute from 9 to 5 in the bank in the morning.

But after all, his grandson Li Jie is willing to inherit his own business, especially Li Jie has made it clear that he does not want to go to college, and Li Rong hopes that he will officially take over the restaurant after graduating from high school.

However, Li Jie's late arrival on this important day today still makes the old man unhappy. "Xiaojie, you're late today, we're all waiting for you. Li Rong's voice was a little serious.

"Oh~ Grandpa, you know, I don't really like toasting each other with people from the Chinatown Association. "Li Jie was deliberately late.

He didn't like the habit of toasting each other, whether in his past life or in this life, but many Chinese liked to do this, which made him speechless.

And some people completely ignore the law that minors can't drink alcohol, and pull him to say that a few drinks of his age are nothing, and what kind of beer is not alcohol.

For this kind of bastard, Li Jie has no desire to deal with it at all.

"Okay, I know that Lao Wang's guys are a bit of a bastard, but they are all neighbors, so don't take some things too seriously. Li Rong said.

Li Jie shook his head and didn't want to argue with his grandfather about this kind of thing, if he really wanted to take over this restaurant in the future, the style of the restaurant would be overturned according to his ideas.

He couldn't tell his grandfather about it, because he was afraid that the old man would have a bad heart.

"Jay, you should find a girlfriend too, look what a good girl Harry and Peter have found. Li Jie's father, Li En, once again talked about this topic.

"Yes, Gwen and Mary are two of the prettiest girls I've ever met. Lady Gasli spoke.

"Okay, can we eat first?" Li Jie immediately wanted to end the topic.

"Don't be shy Jason, I can introduce girls to you on dates, there are a lot of Broadway girls who like you. Mary Jane said with a soft smile.

"Yes, Jason, I have a lot of beautiful girls at Midtown Middle School, maybe one day we're having an outdoor barbecue, and I can invite a few of them over. Gwen also said with a wink of her big beautiful blue eyes.

"Okay, thanks. Li Jie touched his neck uncomfortably. "Grandpa, I don't see any other customers in the store today, what's going on?"

"Today is a family dinner, so I pushed off all the reservations and individual guests for a day off. Li Rong opened the champagne Harry had given him and poured himself a glass.

"And these days, I don't know why, there are suddenly more RB people on the market. ”

"Is it because the tourist season is coming? ”

"I don't know, but a few days ago, the gift shop opened by Lao Chen's family quarreled with an RB person, and was beaten by an RB person, and the RB person really broke Lao Chen's two hands. ”

"Today is a good day, and I don't want to cause this kind of bad luck, so I just don't open. ”

When did the RB people become so arrogant? In the United States, they also fight in the streets? Well, today is a good day, don't think about it for a while.

Lee Kit was now thinking about other, more important things, Harry Osborne and Norman Osborne.

He didn't know if the green goblin would still appear according to the original plot, and he didn't know if this green goblin appeared because of a virus or because of chemical contamination.

But looking at Harry, who was chatting happily with his family and smiling happily, Li Jie felt that he might need to check on the situation of the Osborne Group.

Hmm~ That "intern" should be able to help a lot.
