By the time he slipped back into the store, it was already half past six, and the evening rush hour had arrived as scheduled.

"Set sail, where have you been, I've been looking for you for a long time."

"I'm going to walk around, I'm going to wander around."

No one cared what Li Kang did, because the flow of people continued to soar during the evening rush hour, and several people hurriedly moved the venue and went to the largest store with 780 tables to check the situation.

It's still very hot here, but the waiter is very professional, methodically gives the customers numbers, and arranges for them to go to the waiting area to have some snacks and refreshments, Liu Yifeng secretly nodded with satisfaction.

Later, I went to other stores to inspect, and the waiting situation continued until after 9 o'clock in the evening, but the attendance rate was still considerable.

Every table of customers is a profit, and by the time the doors close at 2 o'clock in the morning, the total sales of the five stores have also been counted, which is as much as 7.62 million!

"How can there be so many?" Li Kang was taken aback by this number.

Liu Yifeng was calm: "This is because we are too famous in Shanghai, and the expectations of Jinlin people are very high. If you want to make money, you have to look at winter. ”

The popularity for a while did not blindfold Liu Yifeng, he saw it thoroughly.

Even in Shanghai, if it weren't for the recent wave of purchases by Yihang Group, it would be difficult to wait for a place during peak hours, let alone in Jinlin, where they have just arrived, and Laowang hot pot is still quite marketable?

Laowang has nearly 20 stores in Jinlin, although each area is not large, and the largest one is only 1,500 square meters, but their tables add up to 3,500 tables, which is larger than the scale of Xianding hot pot.

Laowang hot pot has been operating in Jinlin for more than ten years, and unlike the people in Shanghai who love to try new things, Jinlin people prefer old brands, so Liu Yifeng has long been mentally prepared to fight a protracted war.

He has confidence in himself and in Xianding hot pot.

Considering that Laowang was not so easy to defeat in Jinlin, and the brilliant results of the opening did not make Liu Yifeng rashly open additional branches, the five branches with a large business area can basically cover the entire territory of Jinlin.

There is no hurry to expand, and when Laowang is defeated, it is a good time to open more branches.

Now, it is the most important thing for them to strive to improve the quality of service and the quality of dishes, and to innovate so that the public can keep Xianding fresh.

Of course, advertising is also essential.

Several people discussed this, and Li Kang couldn't help but look at Liu Fei.

In order to promote Xianding hot pot, Liu Fei, a god with a subscription of more than two million, actually took the initiative to ask for free of charge for the upper time, just to let more people see this book and let more people be interested in Xianding hot pot.

In Shanghai, Xianding hot pot was able to catch up, and Laowang was crowded to the point that he was ready to close some stores, and Liu Fei's promotion contributed a lot.

Tsk, this sacrifice is really too big, thinking of the positional relationship between the two that Liu Yifeng quietly told him, Li Kang felt that Liu Fei had made a big sacrifice.

It's just, it's just...... Bow your head and be willing to be a son of a cow.

Li Kang felt full again, and his stomach was full of dog food.

Next, the four of them rushed back to Shanghai in the early morning, and at the insistence of Hong Guiyan, Li Kang sent her back but went to live in the old house with her.

The Ji family's old house has a large area, and it is still in the urban area, and it is extremely rare to have a big garden in the city center.

Except for the Ji family, a wealthy gentleman with a family history of more than 100 years, who can have such a big place in the city center? Of course, when the Ji family built this house, it was also a suburb.

In the old mansion, only Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang, who have been with Ji Shen all his life, are taking care of it, and I am very happy to see this young man who helped with acting at that time again.

At that time, this old mansion was also taken away during the movement, but it was returned to the gentry in the 80s.

Ji Shen grew up in this house since he was a child, but his children are not.

When Ji Minxing, who was in his thirties, finally gave birth to Hong Guiyan, Ji Shen was still working in DìDū at that time, and the old lady of the Ji family lived with her granddaughter in the old mansion.

Since then, the descendants of the Ji family have returned to the old mansion to live like their ancestors.

Hong Guiyan grew up in the Ji family, as for the old couple of the Hong family, they had already gone in the turbulent years, Hong Guiyan's father Hong Hong was raised in the Ji family, and even the ancestral property of the Hong family, formerly known as Huning Bookstore and now called Huning Publishing House, was also brought back by Ji Shen.

When Li Kang was born, Ji Shen also took the initiative to retire, he was busy all his life, and after serving all his life, he retired successfully, and returned to the old mansion to make Sun Hao unhappy, so for Hong Guiyan and Li Kang, this old mansion is where they have stayed since they were born and then grew up here.

Even if Li Kang has only been here for three years.

"Baby, do you still have an impression of this place?" After the two got up and had lunch, Hong Guiyan asked Li Kangdao, his face full of expectation.

Li Kang nodded, although the scorching sun at noon was particularly scorching, the flowers and plants in the garden grew very well, and they were not afraid of the scorching sun and greedily absorbed light and heat.

He walked outside to stand still in the garden with more than half an acre of land, and he didn't have an umbrella, the whole person seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light in the sun, and the eyes of Hong Guiyan were a little moist.

Then Li Kang turned to look at Hong Guiyan, and said hoarsely in a deep voice: "I had a dream after I met you, in which you fluttered butterflies for me, and then the butterflies were pinched to death by me. ”

"Baby." Hong Guiyan's eyes were full of tears again.

Li Kang walked to Hong Guiyan's side in a few steps and helped her wipe away the tears before they fell.

"What." After wiping away his tears, Li Kang scratched his head in embarrassment: "Sister~ Can you change my name?" Baby this ...... What others heard...... I'm that old...... Belch...... You get the idea, anyway. ”

"Poof. Does the baby know to be shy? That's what you call ...... Editor-in-Chief Lee? Thinking of Li Kang's honest call for his editor-in-chief Hong for so long, Hong Guiyan wanted to laugh.

No wonder I felt cordial at the first sight of Li Kang, and I felt very close after a few contacts, and the relationship was because the two were originally relatives.

Now seeing that Li Kang is shy, Hong Guiyan can't help but want to tease him.

Editor-in-Chief Li's title is too official and too intimate, Li Kang hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't be so angry, just call me by my name." ”

Hong Guiyan felt that this was indeed the case, calling the baby so old would inevitably affect Li Kang's image too much, and after thinking about it, there was no more pleasant name than the word Li Kang, so he simply continued to call him Li Kang.
