Zhang Fenglin looked at his partner's mobile phone and the coordinates displayed were Old Street, and his expression suddenly became a little complicated.

The partners continued to nag, imagining that they could open the store to the old street and show their ambitions on the old street. Zhang Fenglin used the skills of the chef of Fujinglou to overwhelm the heroes on the old street.

Zhang Fenglin's apprentice Liu Quan finally couldn't help but say: "Boss Ji, we can't open a shop on that street."

Ji Renjie looked at Liu Quan and asked in confusion: "Why? Is it because that old street is going to be renovated? You don't have to worry about this. I have asked friends for inquiries that the street is to be repaired as old and will not be demolished as a whole.

Moreover, many shops over there are now undergoing low-priced transfers due to the news of remodeling, which is just our opportunity."

Ji Renjie weaves a bright prospect for the master and apprentice.

"We first bought a shop with a suitable price, which can lower the price on the grounds of renovating the old street. We rented it directly for three or five years at a low price.

Then we don’t move over directly. Let’s wait and wait until the renovation of the old street there begins before we decorate it.

The progress is about the same. After the renovation of the old street is completed, we will also renovate it and our restaurant will open directly, so that we can seize the opportunity."

Ji Renjie really weaves a very beautiful prospect, as if their restaurant will become a hit by then.

Zhang Fenglin looked very bad, and finally couldn't help but say, "Lao Ji, let's not think about opening a restaurant there. Our place is already in the best position, and it's the same for us to manage the restaurant well."

After hearing Zhang Fenglin's words, Ji Renjie was really helpless: "Old Zhang, I really didn't have to change the place, but you actually saw that our business is very bad now."

After pausing, Ji Renjie said very seriously: "And I tell you the truth, the reason why we are not doing business here is because we are out of place with the atmosphere here."

Zhang Fenglin looked at Ji Renjie with some confusion. He didn't understand what the so-called "atmosphere is incompatible" meant?

Seeing that Zhang Fenglin didn't understand very well, Ji Renjie could only say: "Old Zhang, to put it simply, some things in our restaurant cannot keep up with the preferences of young people here and are out of date."

Zhang Fenglin still doesn't understand. He has been learning cooking skills for so many years, so why did he suddenly fall behind when he comes here?

Could it be that no one has appreciated the traditional old cooking skills?

But the business in Fujinglou is still very good?

Ji Renjie saw that Zhang Fenglin still didn't understand, so he could only pull Zhang Fenglin out of the restaurant together, stand in front of their restaurant and point around.

"Look at it yourself. The place we are standing now is a modern business center. The restaurants here are mainly Western food, and there are various Internet celebrity stores, all of which are full of fashionable features.

Compared with others, stores like ours are really out of place with this place. We are too traditional.”

Zhang Fenglin stood in front of the door and looked around. The surroundings were filled with tall buildings with glass walls.

Where their restaurant is located is a circular commercial food street, surrounded by modern street views, and there are very beautiful floor tiles at the foot, and the surrounding modern buildings are connected by flybridges.

After seeing this, Zhang Fenglin had to admit that it seemed that a restaurant like them was indeed incompatible with it.

Next door to their restaurant, a very famous Western restaurant.

A fashionable restaurant full of fashion elements and is very consistent with the young people's petty bourgeois plot.

Being caught between these two stores, Zhang Fenglin and his restaurant did not have any advantage. The customers who came here didn't even want to take a look at their house.

Liu Quan followed him out at this time and stood beside his master. Seeing his master looking around, his face gradually became a little helpless.

Finally, the apprentice couldn't help but say, "Master, I've actually heard some guests passing by saying that our decoration is too rustic, and our dishes don't look fashionable at all."

This scene really made Zhang Fenglin feel deeply frustrated for the first time.

He has been learning cooking skills for many years and has even become a top chef and the most famous chef in Fujinglou.

As a result, I now open a restaurant myself, but I can't compare to some second-rate and third-rate ordinary chefs next to me.

All this really had a blow to Zhang Fenglin.

Even this kind of blow was even bigger than the blow he was driven away from Fujing Tower, a young girl in Fujing Tower who took his place.

Ji Renjie saw Zhang Fenglin silent, his face gradually became very bad.

Ji Renjie quickly said: "Lao Zhang, it's not your fault. You don't have to blame yourself. This is mainly because I chose the address at the beginning. I shouldn't choose such a place. This does not conform to our characteristics and is not suitable for your identity.

So Lao Zhang, let’s change the place and go to that old street. That’s the place that suits us the most. I believe we will definitely regroup there.”

After hearing Ji Renjie's words, Zhang Fenglin suddenly came to his senses and asked with a smile: "Old Ji, how much did you invest in this restaurant?"

Ji Renjie was a little surprised: "What are you asking about this? Oh, don't worry, you don't have to think about that little money. Let's try it out. Next, we will start over again."

Although Ji Renjie is not a very rich boss, in fact, this restaurant has not spent much money on him in just one week.

That's why Ji Renjie thought of changing places as soon as possible, finding a more suitable place, and stopping losses in time.

Zhang Fenglin thought for a while and said, "Lao Ji, you rented this store. At that time, you paid the rent for three months and had to add a deposit. The total should be nearly 500,000, right?"

Ji Renjie nodded subconsciously and continued to ask strangely: "Lao Zhang, what do you mean? You really don't have to calculate it so clearly. Since we are a partnership, I am ready to lose money."

Zhang Fenglin nodded and said, "Well, I'm ready to lose money, so I plan to give you the rent, and I will bear the risk for the next six months alone."

Ji Renjie was stunned for a moment, and Liu Quan was also stunned.

Zhang Fenglin said extremely seriously: "I am the chef of Fujinglou. I have been learning to cook for more than 20 years. Now I am indeed disappointed, but I cannot be defeated, and I cannot give up just like that.

So I decided to work hard for half a year, and I will continue to stay here. Next, based on the actual situation around, we will redecorate our store and I will also make some improvements to the dishes."

Speaking of this, Zhang Fenglin looked at Ji Renjie who was already stunned and could not speak at all.

"I can't let you try with me and follow me to pay for the money, so I decided to return the money you invested to you. I will take all the risks for the next time. If it doesn't work in half a year, I will admit it."

Ji Renjie was really completely confused.

But Liu Quan looked at his master and seemed to understand what his master meant.

The master was unwilling to bow his head. He had his pride, so he still had to persevere. He wanted to prove that as the chef of Fujinglou, he had the ability to run his own restaurant well.

At this moment, Liu Quan felt that his master had become tall and responsible.

Ji Renjie finally came back to his senses and asked in confusion: "Why? Lao Zhang, after a week, you should have seen that we may really not be suitable for this place."

Zhang Fenglin shook his head and said, "No, it's only been a week, I won't give up like that."

Ji Renjie looked helpless: "But, we obviously have a better choice and can succeed more easily."

Zhang Fenglin looked at Ji Renjie and asked very seriously: "Do you think it will be better if we moved to the old street and after the renovation of the old street is completed, we will open there?"

Ji Renjie said very surely: "Of course, I have conducted a survey there. There is a traditional cultural area. Lao Zhang, the cooking skills you learned must be the most suitable there. I dare say that there is nothing more suitable for Huaicheng than you."

When Liu Quan heard this, he couldn't help looking at his master, and he felt that Ji Renjie was saying too much.

Not to mention the top devil on the old street.

If Zhang Fenglin is the most suitable one in Huaicheng, why was he driven out of Fujinglou by a little girl?

Of course, Liu Quan thought about this in his heart, but he did not feel disrespectful to his master at all. He just felt that Ji Renjie's pledge was too obvious.

Sure enough, Zhang Fenglin heard this and said directly: "You are clearly praising me. Lao Ji, do you really don't know that is a real big devil in the cooking arts world hidden on that old street?"

Ji Renjie asked strangely: "The Great Devil in the Cooking Arts Industry? What does it mean?"

Zhang Fenglin continued: "This word is a word I recently took the time to chat with my son and saw some cartoons he heard from him, that is, there is a stronger existence on that old street that I can't defeat at all."

Ji Renjie was a little surprised: "Yes, is that true? Is there such an existence? It is even more powerful than that girl from Fujinglou?"

After saying this, Ji Renjie quickly apologized to Zhang Fenglin: "Ah, I'm sorry Lao Zhang."

Zhang Fenglin didn't mind: "The girl from Fujinglou is expected to be young and has a strong strength, but compared with the one on the old street, she is simply an incomparable little ant."

Ji Renjie was even more surprised: "Lao Zhang, didn't you deliberately scare me? Is there such a powerful person? Will you open a restaurant on that kind of old street?"

Zhang Fenglin did not answer, but asked: "Lao Ji, where did you notice the old street?"

Ji Renjie said: "Oh, isn't this a common certificate for the latest issue of Philippine? I saw that many people were watching and chatting, so I took a few glances and felt that the atmosphere of that place was really suitable for you, Chef Zhang."

Zhang Fenglin continued, "Then have you finished watching the program of the common proof of the Philippines?"

Ji Renjie was stunned: "I really haven't finished watching it yet."

Zhang Fenglin nodded: "Well, then you'd better go and finish watching, and then you'll understand everything."

Ji Renjie hesitated for a moment, and saw that Zhang Fenglin and Liu Quan were very serious. He could only walk back to the restaurant. He took out his cell phone, connected to the restaurant's WI-FI, and looked for the video from the phone.

Zhang Fenglin continued to stand at the door and observe the surrounding environment. This was the first time he had learned about it so seriously.

During the week I came here, Zhang Fenglin spent most of his time in the kitchen and rarely observed the surroundings so carefully.

What his partner Ji Renjie said today actually made Zhang Fenglin start to face up to the problem.

After all, he is no longer the chef of Fujinglou.

Now that you are doing business by yourself, everything needs to be calculated by yourself. Many things have to be observed and seriously considered. You cannot expect another operator to help you do it.

Zhang Fenglin stood at the door and observed and wrote down all the shops that were often visited.

He decided to go to those stores to find out the preferences of some customers here and the characteristics of those stores.

Zhang Fenglin had already decided in his heart that he would never retreat easily this time. He would definitely cheer up and work hard again. He should rely on his own ability to open a restaurant of his own.

Now his goal is Su Ji, but he also knows that he can't really do what Su Ji is like.

But Zhang Fenglin decided to stick to his own path, just like the generations of Su Ji.

After carefully recording the locations of some surrounding stores, Zhang Fenglin also planned a way to explore the store.

At this moment, Ji Renjie's exclamation sounded in the restaurant: "I'm going, is this true? Oh my God, is this a dish? This is simply a work of art. I don't know. Is there really such a top chef in Huaicheng?"

Hearing Ji Renjie's scream, Zhang Fenglin also led his apprentice Liu Quan back to the restaurant.
