Chapter 527: Chapter 326: Dream Without Worries

Jiang Peiyao also stayed behind.

The liveliness of the urban village came from the influx of a large number of migrant workers at around the same time after work.

The not-so-wide street outside would also be filled with various kinds of stalls.

There were those eating spicy hot pot and those grilling lamb skewers, and many more selling cold skin noodles and other cold dishes.

The foreign population in this part of the urban village came from all corners of the country.

Leaving their hometowns to come to the big city, all they were after was a little bit of scattered silver.

By six o’clock in the afternoon, the urban village was buzzing with noise.

There was a large influx of young factory workers, and plenty of factory girls chatting and laughing.

There were also those delivery riders in yellow jackets, constantly shuttling through this narrow street on their small electric bikes.

Turning left outside their house, there was a small supermarket, run by a couple who were genuine Golden Mountain locals.

They hadn’t been relocated, and managed to live quite well by running a little retail business from their old house.

A bit further away, there was a “Qiang’s Fried Rice with Eggs.”

At the end of work, there would always be a queue at Qiang’s stand.

With his uniquely flavorful fried rice with eggs, he had become the most famous rice stall on this street.

Even further away, there were some young girls setting up stalls selling milk tea and pastries.

This was the urban village.

An unending stream of transient people, and a potpourri of human life.

Countless dreams were born here, and endless regrets continuously unfolded.

Chen Pingsheng’s little restaurant was called Carefree Restaurant.

There were two signs hanging at the entrance, the left one reading “Carefree, Carefree, resolving the worries of the world.”

The right one read “So Fragrant, So Fragrant, satisfying the desires of the tongue.”

These not-so-cultured words were clearly written by Chen Pingsheng himself.

The location of Carefree Restaurant was quite good, a roughly two hundred square meter space all done up in an ancient wooden style.

The whole restaurant had only eight tables, didn’t host banquets, nor accommodate many diners.

In the middle, there was a music stand, good for singing a few small songs.

Chen Pingsheng definitely wasn’t relying on this restaurant to make money; he was just using it to let his two little kids experience the vicissitudes of life.

Talking about it was one thing, experiencing it firsthand was another.

He was the chef and the owner all in one.

Besides Chen An’an, the restaurant had added another server, Jiang Peiyao.

As for Little Fart Kid, she was a tiny child laborer, usually responsible for dancing the “butt dance” on stage to attract customers.

As long as she wasn’t naughty or causing trouble, she could do whatever she wanted.

“Dad, are you really going to work as a chef here?”

“If I’m not working as a chef, would you still be serving here?”

Laughing, dad wasn’t working as a chef anymore, so how could she possibly serve.

The title of “Princess An’an” was not without reason.

Turning left out the door, a Rolls-Royce came to pick her up.

There was no way she could serve in this place.

Chen Pingsheng tossed her a white towel, “No more talk, we open tomorrow. Let’s honestly finish up cleaning today.”

“Dad, can’t you just hire a few people to tidy up lightly? With your status, is it really suitable for you to do this?”

“I have no status, my status for these two months is just that of a chef. Start moving quickly and be earnest about it. Even your mom complained to me that you’ve put on weight. She hopes you can slim down a bit.”

“Being chubby is a sign of being secured, isn’t that what you used to say, Dad?”

“I’ve changed my mind now.”

Chen Pingsheng started mopping the floor while Chen An’an began wiping the tables.

Little Fart Kid also made a show of wiping around with a little cloth, while Jiang Peiyao went to clean the kitchen.

It must be said, her beauty was still too striking, with no preparations made beforehand.

Even the clothes she wore were too branded; living in the urban village, it was better to keep a low profile.

Chen Pingsheng had her go buy a few sets of cheap clothes, the kind that didn’t cost more than five hundred per set.

By the time they opened the next day, no one would recognize her as a little star.

The next day, Carefree Restaurant opened as normal.

The opening hours were from 9:30 AM to 9:00 PM.

The opening ceremony was simply hanging a sign at the door that read “Welcome”.

The urban village was crowded, and most of the restaurants here were run by couples, each owning a single storefront.

Aside from Shaxian Snacks, the busiest spots were those offering a buffet where you could eat all you want for fifteen yuan.

For fifteen yuan, you could freely add more food, and the same went for the dishes.

Despite not being very sanitary, these eateries were most popular among the lower-class laborers, including delivery workers and construction workers, who frequently visited these places.

There were at least three or four such fast-food restaurants on one street, all offering meals for fifteen yuan.

Stir-fried noodles and fried rice with eggs were countless.

On the first day of Carefree Restaurant, Chen Pingsheng solemnly put a little apron on Chen An’an.

“Chen An’an, starting from today, you are the chief waitress of our Carefree Restaurant. Are you excited?”

“Not excited.”

Chen Pingsheng gave her a stern look, urging her to rephrase her words.

Chen An’an immediately stamped her foot, “Excited.”

“Good, just maintain that attitude.”

Chen Pingsheng then looked at the little fart kid standing beside him, who was seriously standing still.

“Chen Xinyi, starting from today, you are the leader of our Carefree Restaurant’s chief butt dance. Excited?”

“I… am excited.”

The little fart kid seriously clenched her little fists, waving them.

Chen Pingsheng also gave Jiang Peiyao, who was dressed up as a stunning waitress, a deputy manager sign.

“Starting from today, our Carefree Restaurant is officially open. We’re not just selling dishes; we’re also offering a ‘Carefree Plan’ for destined individuals. Get it?”

“Don’t get it.”

To know is to know; not to know is not to know.

Just frying some dishes and selling a Carefree Plan, what is Dad thinking?

Chen Pingsheng said seriously, “The so-called Carefree Plan is about making a dream come true for the destined ones. Understand now?”

“Dad, do I count as one of the destined ones?”

“What, you have dreams too?”

“Of course, I have dreams. What if they come true?”

“Then please share your dream!”

“My dream is to have two more cleaning ladies sent over. With my thin arms and legs, I’m not really cut out for cleaning.”

Chen An’an frowned.

Chen Pingsheng said, “Peiyao, go and bring our family’s scale from the front, let’s see where she has thin arms or legs.”

Hmm… Chen An’an hummed in dissatisfaction.

Her dad was unique; who else would place a scale at the entrance of a restaurant?

Isn’t that shooting himself in the foot?

But this dream of a Carefree Plan is also unique; after all, her dad never follows the beaten path.

With his status, who else would really open a restaurant to educate their children?

It was clear he wanted to use the lives of others to help Chen An’an and the rest grasp the complexities of real life sooner.

The saying goes that all human affairs are learning, and understanding people is like writing essays.

At the heart of all operation is simply being human-centric.

Only by truly understanding people and the complexities of life can one grasp the essence of management.

Without understanding people, all knowledge is just paper talk.

Like those experts who advise against raising wages for ordinary people.

Only Huaxia experts would stand at the pinnacle of the economic field to preach to the world with their professional theories.

Too high wages for ordinary people are not conducive to striving.

These are theories from those who are full and detached from reality; other than theorizing on paper, they are good for nothing.

Chen Pingsheng still wanted to use these two months to give his kids some practical knowledge that couldn’t be taught in textbooks.

The quickest way to grow in the long journey of life is to experience it through the lives of others.

As a father, he was doing his utmost.

Not only did he want to provide the best economic conditions for his children, but he also went out of his way to create the best educational methods for them.
