Alas, it seems that it is impossible to stimulate the male protagonist by making money from Su Wenyuan in the future.
He Tiantian was a little disappointed.
Student D: ...I'm sorry, I have nothing to say.
"Okay, let's forget this! I misunderstood you before, I'm sorry, Xiaotian!"
Realizing his mistake, Ye Chen quickly adjusted his mentality, and then sincerely apologized to He Tiantian.
He Tiantian didn't want to complain about the male protagonist's uprightness and clear distinction between grudges. She waved her hand feebly, "You are my brother, and you are doing it for my own good!"
There was a smile in Ye Chen's eyes, and he said softly, "Just know that I am doing it for your own good!"
Suddenly, Ye Chen heard something, "By the way, how much do you have left of the 500,000 that Wenyuan paid you today?"
He Tiantian was stunned for a moment, her eyes rolled, "There's not much left. In addition to buying some electrical appliances for my home, I also bought you a new mobile phone and a watch for myself. !”
"But your phone is out of stock today. You can only go to the store to pick it up tomorrow."
As he spoke, He Tiantian shook her wrist.
Sure enough, a brand-new watch that didn't look cheap suddenly appeared in front of Ye Chen.
Ye Chen's smile deepened. This Xiaotian was as glib as ever.
Who just coaxed the old lady to say, "I can't bear to buy anything myself, so I bought a lot of gifts for you and your uncle," but in the end, didn't she secretly buy a watch for herself
Ye Chen doesn't know much about these famous watches, but he has a friend who is the only son of a richest man, and he still has some understanding of some luxury brands.
For example, Ye Chen glanced at the dial of the watch on He Tiantian's wrist and recognized a few familiar letters.
Rolex
But it is not a luxury version, but a relatively simple and basic mechanical watch.
However, Ye Chen estimated that a Rolex like this, which looked nothing special, should cost 110,000 to 20,000 yuan.
Dishwasher, water heater, washing machine, massage chair, etc. add up to about 100,000 yuan.
Coupled with the mobile phone he bought for Ye Chen, Ye Chen felt that half of the 500,000 his cousin had just earned might have been spent.
"How much money do you still have? 250,000, do you have it?" Ye Chen didn't say anything to ask He Tiantian to return the goods.
He already regards "He Tian" as his biological brother, and there is no need to say too many polite words between family members.
Too much pushing and giving makes people feel unfamiliar and they don't regard each other as family members.
"Yes -" He Tiantian's tone was hesitant, as if she didn't understand why Ye Chen was so concerned about how much money she still had.
Suddenly, He Tiantian seemed to have thought of something, and asked in a pretentious manner: "Brother, are you short of money? Oh, tell me you are short of money, and I will lend it to you!"
He Tiantian said extremely generously, his fair and handsome face filled with pride and hidden expectations.
This is like a scumbag who has been rejected by others for many years, and suddenly finds that one day he can help the god of learning that everyone praises. The scumbag feels endless glory and inexplicable pride.
Seeing He Tiantian's rich expression, Ye Chen suddenly felt a little emotional. Thinking of his cousin's childhood experience, the remaining prejudice and wariness in his heart disappeared without a trace.
Alas, it’s not easy for my cousin either. I lost my biological father when I was a child, and my biological mother remarried and moved to another place.
It is said that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather, and a biological mother who has remarried is no longer the biological mother she once was.
His mother's neglect, his stepfather's indifference, and his half-brother being favored... Growing up in such an abnormal family environment, it's not surprising that Ye Tian became what he is today.
However, even if Ye Chen originally had some prejudice against He Tian, he must admit it.
He Tian was just a petty villain, not even breaking the law.
And as long as he is given positive guidance, he can return to the right path.
No, He Tian just made some money and started buying this and that for his family.
How bad can the character of a person who knows how to be grateful be
The more Ye Chen thought about it, the more he felt that his best cousin could still be saved. As the elder brother, Ye Chen felt that he had the responsibility to discipline and guide his younger brother!
"Give me all that 250,000!"
Ye Chen's brain worked quickly, he clarified his thoughts, and then said seriously: "I want to open a private kitchen, do you know about this?"
"I know. Before my grandfather died, didn't he pass on all the ancestral recipes of our He family to you?"
He Tiantian waved her hands indifferently. Ye Chen's plan to open a private kitchen was originally set in the plot.
And Ye Chen also has the conditions to open a private kitchen - the ancestors of the He family served as imperial chefs, and there is still a fragment of the recipe book at home!
However, during the war, the He family's business declined.
Later generations died and fled, but great-great-grandfather He Tian, who was the only one to inherit the recipe, had no talent for cooking.
Therefore, starting from He Tian's great-grandfather, the He family has become an ordinary farmer family.
However, He Tian's ancestors always remembered the glory of the family. Even if there was only a fragment of the recipe, they kept it and treated it like a family heirloom, passing it down from generation to generation.
It's a pity that in Hetian's generation, it was still discontinued.
Mr. He lost his son in old age, and his grandson was also missing from his daughter-in-law.
He was lying on the hospital bed, unable to close his eyes.
Finally, I saw my grandson busy taking care of him, and thought that although his surname was not He, he still had the blood of the He family in his body.
The moment he closed his eyes, Mr. He had no choice but to tell Ye Chen about the incomplete recipe book, and told him to revitalize the He family's "Linxian Tower" if he had a chance.
Ye Chen promised his grandfather, but at that time he was still in college, and all he thought about was that he could become an elite in the workplace after graduation.
Open a restaurant
Ha, he studied for more than ten years and graduated from the 211 prestigious school. Is it just to become a cook? !
After graduation, Mr. Ye Chen couldn't find a suitable job, and he discovered that the so-called favored people still have to face various difficulties once they enter the society.
After stumbling and going around in circles for nearly a year, Ye Chen finally recognized the reality and re-planned his direction.
Opening a private restaurant and being the owner and chef doesn't seem that bad.
What family heirloom is in his hand
And Ye Mu has recounted the past events her ancestors told her in a nostalgic tone countless times -
Our ancestors of the He family had an imperial chef.
The "Linxian Building" founded by the He family is the first floor in the capital. Many dignitaries lined up to try the signature dishes made by our He family.
Ye Chen began to study the remaining recipe book.
Maybe it was because Ye Chen was smart and knew everything, even if he was learning to cook, he would have no problem.
Or maybe He Chen was destined to be a cook, so in just a few months, he mastered the basic skills.
Moreover, Ye Chen also reconstructed one of the signature dishes of Hejia Linxianlou - Mandarin duck and five delicacies stew based on the limited records in the recipe book!
This is a delicacy exclusive to the royal family in ancient times.
At that time, the He family also made a name for itself with several dishes including Yuanyang and Five Treasures Stew, and gained the reputation of being the first in the capital!
Ye Chen, as the grandson of the He family, has perfectly inherited the He family's talents.
He is confident that he can carve out his own niche with his cooking skills!
"Yes, grandpa passed on He's recipe to me and allowed me to use the 'Linxianlou' sign!"
Mentioning the long-dead Mr. He, Ye Chen said with gratitude and respect in his tone, "During this period, I have been preparing to reopen Linxian Tower!"
Of course, with Ye Chen's current strength, he couldn't afford to open a large restaurant with more than three floors.
However, there is no problem in opening a private restaurant and developing your own food empire through ordering and noodles.
"Okay, let's go and drive!"
He Tiantian seemed not to understand the meaning of Ye Chen's words and replied carelessly.
After saying this, she seemed to suddenly think of something, and looked into Ye Chen's eyes, "Ah! I understand, brother, you are still short of money to open a store? So-" She was thinking about the remaining 250,000 yuan. .
He Tiantian didn't say the last half of the sentence, but both brothers understood the meaning.
Ye Chen didn't rush to refute, and just looked at He Tiantian quietly.
He Tiantian knew that the male protagonist was waiting for him to express his stance.
Perhaps, this is the male protagonist's last round of testing for "He Tian", his best cousin.
If He Tiantian can pass the level, from now on, "He Tian" will be included in the scope of "one of his own" by the male protagonist.
"Okay, you can take it if you want to use it! Anyway, I can shoot arrows, and Young Master Su already knows my abilities. In the future, I can make more money!"
He Tiantian said quickly without hesitation for too long.
"Give it to me directly? Aren't you afraid that I will lose all your money?" Ye Chen still looked calm, with no trace of emotion on his face.
"Yes, I'll give it to you directly! As for losing money? Oh, brother, I'm not talking about you. How can anyone like you start worrying about losing money before the business is done? Is it bad luck?"
He Tiantian pretended to dislike the male protagonist, and then waved her hands freely, "If you really lose, then so be it. I'll buy you some experience."
While saying this, He Tiantian took out her mobile phone and said, "I'll transfer the money to you directly!"
Her finger poked at the screen.
In less than two minutes, Ye Chen's mobile phone received a text message indicating that the bank account had arrived.
Ye Chen didn't look at the phone, but looked at He Tiantian intently. After a while, he smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll take it and use it!"
Deep down in his heart, Ye Chen was thinking—
If his private restaurant develops smoothly and can make a profit quickly, he will regard the money as an investment.
In the future, he will pay dividends to his cousin in proportion.
In this way, as long as his private kitchen is still open, his cousin will always have income.
If the private restaurant does not run well and loses money, Ye Chen will regard the money as a loan, and he will pay it back to his cousin with interest.
He Tiantian didn't know what Ye Chen was thinking, but if she knew it, she wouldn't be surprised.
Gee, he is the male protagonist, and he is also the kind of aloof male protagonist who only talks about friendship and not interests with the only son of the richest man.
In some aspects, his character is absolutely reliable!
Therefore, He Tiantian directly transferred 250,000 yuan to Ye Chen without even asking for a voucher.
Because she believed that Ye Chen would never treat her badly, let alone default on his debt.
"One more thing, Xiaotian, that He family recipe is an heirloom of the He family. Although my grandfather passed it to me and you expressed your unwillingness to have it, I still hope that you can learn from me! "
Ye Chen really lives up to his reputation as a male protagonist and behaves openly and aboveboard.
"...I, I—" He Tiantian subconsciously wanted to refuse, but soon, she thought of something else and deliberately showed an embarrassed expression, "What's so good about cooking? It's smoky—"
"What's not hard to do in this world?"
What Ye Chen hated the most was the lazy look of "He Tian" who was unwilling to endure hardships and refused to be down-to-earth.
At this moment, he has taken his cheap cousin under his wing, and he has an inexplicable sense of responsibility and mission for his cousin.
No, "He Tian" can't continue to mess around like this.
Even if he can do archery, it is too unreliable to win games or win bets, and there is no guarantee of long-term stability.
The most important thing is for my cousin to truly master a craft that allows him to make a living!
Being a cook may not sound so fancy, but cooking is definitely the most practical skill.
No matter when or where you go, as long as you can cook and make some tricks, you won't starve to death.
After making up his mind, the hero will resolutely execute it.
Therefore, in the following days, while Ye Chen was decorating the shop, he learned to cook from He Tiantian in the kitchen.
"Brother! I don't want it! I don't want to be a cook. I'm smoky and sweaty, and I have to practice basic skills. My, my hand will be broken!"
He Tiantian was crying in the brand-new kitchen, holding up her two fair and delicate hands, acting pitiful without any regard for the man's dignity.
"Ding! The male protagonist's anger value +1!"
Ye Chen finally knew what a naughty child was.
What the hell, my cheap cousin is such a troublesome naughty kid.
However, Ye Chen is not a person who gives up easily.
In order to let his cousin learn the craft in a down-to-earth manner, Ye Chen also pinched the fate of "He Tian": "Hurry up and learn! I have said hello to Wen Yuan, and he and the people in his circle have I won’t ask you to play archery or competition!”
"You, just teach me how to wash and chop vegetables!"
"Brother, no, you are my brother, you can't do this to me!"
He Tiantian continued to wail like a ghost, and his voice was definitely a demonic sound that could be heard.
"Ding! The male protagonist's anger value +1!"
Ye Chen's forehead twitched. He really couldn't bear the cry of his cheap cousin. After thinking about it, he threw out a carrot and said, "Let's do this. If you can learn how to cut vegetables, I will allow you to go find Su Wenyuan to make extra money!"
Upon hearing this, He Tiantian's eyes lit up.
But she still didn't forget to make sure something was, "Brother, how can I say I have learned how to chop vegetables!"
Ye Chen: ... What a brat, his mind works extremely fast when things are not serious.
"When the potato shreds you cut are even in thickness and can pass through the nose of a needle, you will be considered good at chopping vegetables!"
Ye Chen didn't hesitate and threw a pot of potatoes to He Tiantian.
After putting down the words, Ye Chen went about his own business, because according to his experience, it would take at least a month or two to cut the vegetables well.
Even if you have talent, if you are dumber, you may not be able to make it in half a year.
As a result, as soon as Ye Chen went to the front to discuss the details with the decorator, He Tiantian shouted: "Brother, I've cut it!"
"Ding! The male protagonist's anger value +1!"
