Chapter 2291 Planting Trees and Picking Peaches

Qin Feng had anticipated from the beginning that the catering company would make money. With Yu Na's business ability and the catering company's successful experience and mature team in Dongyang, it would be hard not to make money.

But Qin Feng didn't expect that the catering company would be so profitable.

The catering company has only been in Zhongjiang for one year, and within that year it has opened five chain stores in Zhongjiang. Business in each store is booming.

The reason why every store is doing so well is not only because Yu Na sets extremely high standards for the service and food quality of each store, but more importantly, Yu Na has strengthened the promotion of this chain brand and at the same time endowed this chain brand with valuable attributes.

Not only that, Yu Na also boldly innovated and spent a lot of money on promotion on new media and self-media short video platforms. Up to now, this chain restaurant brand has become synonymous with catering in Zhongjiang. It is an Internet celebrity restaurant that all tourists must check in when they come to Zhongjiang. It is also the first choice for local people in Zhongjiang for weekend gatherings. However, you can't eat there without making an appointment in advance, and the price is expensive and the consumption is high.

Based on the above, the company's profits are very considerable. However, as Li Jing said, this is the first year and it is the investment stage, so there are not many dividends at present. However, after a few years when it comes to the payback period, this dividend will make people jealous.

The two talked about this catering company for a long time. In fact, Qin Feng didn't care how much money this company would make in the future. What he cared about was when he could pay back the money he owed Li Jing and Xiao Jianan.

"Hong Yue left yesterday afternoon?" Qin Feng finally couldn't help but ask Li Jing.

After hearing Qin Feng's question, a trace of sadness flashed across Li Jing's eyes, but she immediately concealed it.

Li Jing knew that Qin Feng came here today not to see her, but to find Hong Yue.

"Yes, after seeing you come back yesterday and having lunch, she went back to Dongyang." Li Jing nodded.

"Why... so anxious?"

Li Jing looked at Qin Feng, thought for a moment and then answered: "She said she had taken a few months off. Now that you are fine, she has to go back to work at the school for the disabled. Although the leader is very tolerant of her, she can't be too presumptuous."

"Of course, this is just her excuse. You should know why she is so anxious to return to Dongyang." Li Jing continued.

Qin Feng nodded. Both Qin Feng and Li Jing knew what Hong Yue was thinking.

"How is her...physical recovery?" Qin Feng asked.

It had been almost a year since Qin Feng last saw Hong Yue. There were many people around yesterday and they didn't talk much.

"She's recovered very well. She's now healthier than a normal person. Because we've lost something before, we cherish it even more."

"Although her body has long returned to normal, she still insists on exercising every day, and it is high-intensity exercise, which she does without fail. So her body is very healthy, much better than mine. She runs five kilometers every morning and occasionally runs a half marathon on weekends. The most important thing is that she feels very relaxed after running..." Li Jing said with a smile.

Hearing that Hong Yue was in such good health now, Qin Feng was also very happy, happy from the bottom of his heart.

In fact, Qin Feng could have called Hong Yue himself to ask, but he knew that Hong Yue would not tell him so much even if he asked, and he didn't really want to call Hong Yue.

Qin Feng asked Li Jing many questions, all about Hong Yue.

Li Jing kept answering with a smile, showing no sign of unhappiness.

Originally they were planning to eat here, but while chatting with Li Jing, the child started crying in the room. Qin Feng asked Li Jing to go over and continue to accompany the child, and he said goodbye and left.

After leaving Li Jing's house, Qin Feng made a phone call, then drove to the entrance of the Propaganda Department of the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee. After waiting for more than 20 minutes, Qin Feng saw Xie Simin walking out of the Propaganda Department in a professional suit.

Xie Simin stood on the side of the road and looked around. She obviously didn't find Qin Feng, nor did she recognize that the car belonged to Qin Feng. She muttered to herself and began to take out her cell phone to make a call.

Qin Feng knew that Xie Simin must be cursing him, so he honked the horn twice with a smile, then rolled down the window and shouted to Xie Simin: "Here!"

Only then did Xie Simin see Qin Feng. She walked over quickly, opened the car door and got in.

"Is this my sister-in-law's car?" Xie Simin asked.

"Of course. If I could afford this car, I wouldn't be able to come out this time." Qin Feng asked while driving.

"You really have no scruples now, actually driving this car out to show off in the city."

"I'm already like this, what else should I be afraid of?" Qin Feng said with a smile.

Qin Feng was just joking, but to Xie Simin it had another meaning.

"Qin Feng, I'm sorry, that's not what I meant, I..." Xie Simin thought she had hit the nail on the head on Qin Feng's sad story.

"You're not sorry, what? Do you think I'm as fragile as a woman? I'm not exaggerating, this matter is indeed not a small matter. If you say I don't care or feel sad at all, I'd be lying. But if you say I'm upset because of this, you're underestimating me."

"Although your brother is not very old, he has experienced a lot in his life. He has even been in front of the King of Hell several times. Compared with the previous times when he almost lost his life, this incident is nothing at all." Qin Feng said with a relaxed look.

Xie Simin felt a lot more relieved when she saw Qin Feng's relaxed look. However, as someone in this circle, Xie Simin could roughly understand the blow Qin Feng suffered this time, and she could also understand that Qin Feng was definitely not as relaxed as he said on the surface.

"Isn't there any explanation from the province about this matter?" Xie Simin asked.

"What explanation do you want the province to give me?" Qin Feng asked with a smile.

"Since you were released, it means you were framed and wrongly accused. You were imprisoned as a criminal for more than half a year. Even if you are not given a compensatory promotion, you should at least be reinstated, right? What does it mean that there is no explanation now? A deputy mayor is gone just like that? He is imprisoned just like that?" Xie Simin was very excited.

"Although you have returned to Zhongjiang from Xiquan to work, you must be well aware of the political changes in Xiquan. Now the executive vice mayor of Xiquan City has been appointed, and it is said that he is doing a very good job. He is doing a good job, but you want him to step down and let me take over?"

"What's more, I have been the executive vice mayor of Xiquan for more than half a year and have not achieved any political achievements. On the contrary, the Xiquan Municipal Government has been plagued by various accidents. However, as soon as he took office, he carried out drastic reforms and development. The entire Xiquan City is now thriving."

"If it's a provincial leader instead, will you let me go back? Besides, there's no reason for me to be suddenly given a new position when others are doing well." Qin Feng teased, but there was a hint of sourness in his words.

Qin Feng had chewed the tough bone of Xiquan City, but when it was time to eat the meat, it was someone else's turn. It was like it was Qin Feng who planted the trees, but when it was time to pick the peaches, it was someone else's turn. Anyone would feel somewhat uncomfortable.
