When Zhou An arrived at the scene with a few chefs, the fire in Zhuangweiyuan had not yet been completely burned, but the red light inside had already attracted many onlookers.

There was a lot of discussion, and there was a lot of noise.

Someone called the police, someone wanted to put out the fire.

But the fire fueled by so much liquor in the store was not so extinguished, and personal firefighting behavior was of little use.

Zhou An rushed over with a few cooks, originally wanting to catch the thief.

Just now I received a call from Lu Chaojun, saying that there was a flashlight beam in Zhuang Weiyuan that flashed twice, and he and Lu Chaojun's judgment was the same at that time.

- I thought there was a thief in the Zhuangwei Garden.

He never dreamed that it was not a thief who entered Zhuang Wei Garden, but an arsonist.

Moreover, this arsonist is still Zhao Qifeng.

The crime of arson is so serious that ordinary people don't dare to do it.

When he saw the fire all over the Zhuangwei Garden, his heart instantly pulled out the cold.

But when he saw Zhao Qifeng, who was pressed to the ground by Liang Yu and couldn't move, and heard Lu Chaojun and others say that it was this guy who lit the fire, his heart, which had already been cold, slowly warmed up again.

Looking at Zhao Qifeng, who was pressed to the ground, and then looking up at the Zhuangwei Garden where the store was on fire, he suddenly felt no more distressed.

Because he suddenly realized his loss, someone had paid for it.

And this person can afford it completely.

He smiled coldly at Zhao Qifeng and nodded slightly, "You are ruthless enough! I will obey you!

Zhao Qifeng's face was pale and embarrassed, and he bowed his head and was silent.

The fire truck soon arrived, and the high-pressure water cannon quickly brought the fire under control in Zhuangweiyuan.

When this happened, Shen Jinke, Tong Jinzhi, Tong Xue and Yao Jing, who were shareholders of Zhuangweiyuan, also rushed to the scene one after another, and when they saw the messy Zhuangweiyuan, their faces were naturally very ugly.

When they learned that the culprit Zhao Qifeng had been caught red-handed, they were relieved.

Yao Jing also wanted to step forward and slap Zhao Qifeng a few times, but she was late, Zhao Qifeng had already been escorted into the police car by the police, and it was impossible for the police to allow her to beat people in public.

When this happened, Zhou An, Shen Jinke and others discussed, and they could only choose to renovate Zhuangwei Garden.

Fortunately, Zhao Qifeng is not short of money and can afford to lose.

The funds for the redecoration of Zhuangwei Garden naturally fell on Zhao Qifeng.

Zhuangwei Garden needs to be renovated, and the opening date of Zhuangwei Garden can only be postponed.

Even the time to take Lu Chaojun and others to work can only be pushed back.

In order to keep Lu Chaojun, the head chef, Zhou An promised that during the renovation of Zhuang Wei Garden, the salaries of Lu Chaojun's master and apprentice would be paid as usual, and even the salaries of other chefs and waiters in Zhuang Wei Garden, who should have been on duty in the near future, would be paid as usual.

These losses will naturally be borne by Zhao Qifeng.

When Zhao Sanshan and Zhao Wuyue, who were in the detention center, learned about the incident, the brothers' reactions can be imagined.

Originally, two of the three brothers were going to go to prison, but now it's okay, all three brothers are facing prison.

For Zhou An, there are actually pros and cons to this matter.

The disadvantage is naturally that the opening of Zhuangweiyuan has been delayed, which has affected his income.

There are a few positive aspects.

For example, if Zhuang Weiyuan delays its opening, he can devote more time and energy to the preparation of the branch in Longma Lane.

For example, as soon as Zhao Qifeng was imprisoned, the threat of the three Zhao brothers against him was fully lifted, and at least for three or two years, he no longer had to worry about the revenge of the three brothers.

……

At the beginning of May, Zhou An's branch in Longma Lane officially opened.

On the signboard of the store, in addition to the name of the store "Fish Bites Sheep Raging Crayfish", there are two small words in the lower right corner of the signboard - 3 stores.

It's hotter in May, that's nonsense.

But behind this nonsense, it means that Zhou An's three crayfish shops have finally ushered in the annual peak season.

Not to mention the old store located in Yinma County, business has been getting better and better recently, and Zhou An's daily income is getting higher and higher, which he expected.

The branch on Xinbai Commercial Street has also seen a gradual increase in business recently, and it has become the norm to have a turnover of more than 10,000 yuan per night.

Even the new store in Longma Lane has not had a bad business since the day it opened.

This new store opened, and the offer of Zhou Anding was relatively long - for a week.

Within a week of the opening of the new store, the beer will be free of charge and the price of the food will be 70% off.

Free beer, provided free of charge by the liquor supplier, this piece does not need to be paid by Zhou An out of his own pocket, and the price of the dishes is all 7% off, which reduces his profits a lot, but he still makes a little money.

Of course, in the first week of opening, he didn't expect this new store to make him much money, and he was very content.

During this week's preferential period, what he wants is to be popular and build a reputation.

At this point, Tan Guang, who was arranged by him to work as the head chef of this new restaurant, did not disappoint him.

Tan Guang's high standards for dishes that are almost perverted have been well implemented throughout the kitchen since he became the head chef of this new restaurant.

Another new store officially opened, and Zhou An naturally went more frequently.

But every time he goes, in the kitchen that Tan Guang is in charge of, it is difficult for him to find anything wrong.

In terms of hygiene, the kitchen that Tan Guang is in charge of is the best among his three stores.

In terms of dishes, he went several times and saw a pair of chopsticks in the breast pocket of Chef Tan Guang's uniform, randomly checking and tasting newly cooked dishes.

When the one-week discount period ended, Zhou An thought that the turnover of the new store in Longma Lane would plummet.

But no.

At the end of the one-week preferential period, the turnover of the store in Longma Lane rose instead of falling.

When he first learned the news, Zhou An was very surprised.

I don't think it's scientific.

After careful investigation, I found that it was true, and for good reason.

There are two reasons for this.

First of all, after the one-week discount period, the popularity of that branch only dropped by two or three percent.

Secondly, after the end of the preferential period, the beer is no longer free, and the pricing of dishes is no longer 7% off.

For a week in a row, the daily turnover remained above 7,000.

1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks......

When the whole of May passed and the time entered a hotter June, the turnover of the new store in Longma Lane was still performing well and rising steadily, Zhou An was completely relieved.

Because as time goes by, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the number of people eating crayfish and drinking beer will only increase, and it will be difficult for the business of the new store in Longma Lane to decline again.

He believes that as long as this year's peak season is successfully passed, the popularity and reputation of the restaurant in Longma Lane will leave an impression on the hearts of diners and residents in that area.

By the time another peak season arrives next year, the popularity over there should be better than this year.

And this is a virtuous circle.

……

Time hurried to the end of June, and the renovation of Zhuangwei Garden finally came to an end.

After discussion, Zhou An, Shen Jinke and others decided that on July 1, the new Zhuangwei Garden was officially opened.
