Chapter 550 - 550 548 Sorting Out Ideals

550: Chapter 548 Sorting Out Ideals 550: Chapter 548 Sorting Out Ideals As the MC cried out “Let the banquet begin,” the gift-giving ceremony officially came to an end.

Li Han, Chen Yang, Yang Ruoxi, and Wu Kexin stepped down from the stage and began to oversee the serving of dishes.

Today was the old master’s birthday, with a hundred tables set, creating a truly spectacular scene.

The entire second-floor hall was filled with guests.

Putting together such a grand event on short notice was quite challenging for the hotel’s normal operations.

After all, there were only so many hands, but several times more tables needing service than usual.

Not just the staff, even Li Han could feel the pressure of the workload.

To avoid any mishaps, Li Han, Chen Yang, Wu Kexin, and Yang Ruoxi chose to postpone their meal to take care of the event first.

They had already agreed to eat after ensuring everyone else had finished their meals without any issues.

So, as soon as the banquet officially started, the four quickly divided the tasks among themselves.

Li Han returned to the office, taking command of the entire venue, while Wu Kexin and Yang Ruoxi were responsible for maintaining order at the scene.

Chen Yang went to the kitchen alone to direct its operations.

The kitchen staff had started cooking early in the morning, so many dishes were already prepared and kept warm in the cabinets.

Now, they just needed to be served directly.

Even so, the kitchen remained a hive of activity.

Since many dishes needed to be cooked just before serving to maintain their flavor, they couldn’t be left in the warmers and had to be stir-fried and served immediately.

Among these dishes were the wild mushrooms.

“Be careful with the wild mushrooms; to keep them delicious, the heat must be controlled just right.

Don’t let anything go wrong.

After we get through today, President Li will give everyone a raise!” Chen Yang reminded everyone with a smile as they cooked, simultaneously boosting morale.

Everyone was too busy to chat, and the kitchen was filled only with the sounds of cooking, not a word more.

But upon hearing Chen Yang’s words, they all laughed, and their spirits were instantly lifted.

“Haha, then let’s thank President Li in advance!”

“A raise?

Great!

I’m full of energy!”

“Remember that, Boss Chen, don’t worry, we’ve got this.”

…

The chefs cheerfully responded to Chen Yang.

Seeing everyone’s mood uplifted, Chen Yang also felt much more at ease.

While sitting in the kitchen watching everyone busily at work, Chen Yang would occasionally walk around the kitchen during quieter moments, casually offering tips to the chefs.

Although these chefs were professionals, Chen Yang’s cooking skills were nothing to scoff at either.

And when it came to stir-frying wild mushrooms, he was particularly knowledgeable.

He knew exactly what needed to be added and when to bring out the richest flavor of the wild mushrooms.

That’s why he stepped forward to give guidance.

The chefs listened to Chen Yang’s instructions, following his advice on how to cook with no objections.

In this way, under Chen Yang’s direction, the kitchen ran smoothly all afternoon.

Once all the dishes were ready and served out of the kitchen, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“We’re finally done, that was exhausting.”

Exhausted, Wang De wiped the sweat from his forehead and sat down beside Chen Yang to rest, frowning.

Seeing how hard everyone had worked just to get the job done satisfactorily, Chen Yang felt somewhat guilty.

So he stood up, went to the hotel’s main hall, and brought back some beverages and beer for everyone in the kitchen.

“Come on, everyone worked hard this afternoon, take a break with some drinks.

President Li will come down after he’s done to treat us to a meal—and give us that raise,” Chen Yang called out with a smile.

Everyone was exhausted and just wanted to sit down comfortably and rest.

But when they saw that Chen Yang had brought so many drinks, including beer, everyone suddenly perked up.

Gathering around Chen Yang, each person grabbed a bottle of drink or beer and started to drink.

“Haha, thanks, Boss Chen.”

“Wow, that feels great!

Thank you, Boss Chen.”

“It’s okay, Boss Chen, you go ahead with your work, we can eat later.”

…

While sipping their drinks, everyone also started to politely tell Chen Yang it was okay and they could rest, suggesting that he should go ahead with his tasks.

“Okay, you guys rest up; I’ll go check on the other areas,” Chen Yang responded without pretension.

After distributing drinks and beer, he left the kitchen to check on the situation in the banquet hall on the second floor.

To see if there was anything he needed to help with.

Chen Yang was busy in the kitchen all morning, and Yang Ruoxi and Wu Kexin were no better off.

When Chen Yang found them, they were still bustling around, attending to the banquet scene.

A hundred tables weren’t a small affair.

The noise had never stopped.

“Those three tables over there still need drinks, get someone to bring them up quickly.

And the tables to the west are asking for bowls and chopsticks, go fetch them!

Don’t dawdle.”

While the guests were enjoying their meals, Yang Ruoxi and Wu Kexin were frantically busy.

They were continuously directing the waitstaff, assigning tasks on-site.

Sometimes, when they were short-handed, even the two of them would jump into the fray.

Seeing Chen Yang, Yang Ruoxi’s face lit up with joy, and she immediately turned to him for help, “Wow, Chen Yang, are you done with your work?

Come help me out; the hall is so busy we’re short of hands.”

Seeing Yang Ruoxi sweating profusely from the busyness, Chen Yang felt a mix of distress and gratification.

It was good for Yang Ruoxi, who was usually idle, to have some work to do.

“I came over to help you.

What do you need me to do?” Chen Yang asked with a smile as he approached her.

Yang Ruoxi thought for a moment, “You take over commanding here; I need to use the restroom and I’ll be right back.”

“Alright, I’ll stand in for you,” Chen Yang nodded in agreement, and then Yang Ruoxi left for the restroom with a smile.

The hotel banquet scene was boisterous, and Chen Yang, standing backstage and observing, noticed quite a few influential figures from the county.

“Being wealthy really is good.

Chen Yang sighed inwardly once again, and at the same time, his desire to become rich intensified.

Ever since the greenhouses and the breeding farm had become routine operations,

Chen Yang had been caught up in various trivial matters, almost forgetting his own ambitions.

He intended to lead the entire Liuhu Village to prosperity together.

How had he become content with this small measure of security?

Recalling these thoughts, Chen Yang couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty.

But at the same time, his mind quickly began to strategize, thinking of ways to continue making money.

“Now, the business I have includes not only my own breeding farm but also shares in medicinal meals, construction projects, and a mining venture.”

“The shares in the mining venture definitely won’t generate a substantial profit in the short term.”

“Therefore, my focus should still be on the construction projects and medicinal meals,” Chen Yang thought seriously.

After a comparison, he decided on his next course of action.

“After this birthday banquet, I’ll take the initiative to talk with Uncle Yang.

Moving the medicinal meals into the provincial city market soon could be a considerable opportunity for me,” Chen Yang’s eyes brightened as he made a silent decision.
