468 Fortune of Three Lifetimes



As he spoke, he followed Liu Yanran to Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan looked at the Old Master carefully. The Old Master looked to be in his sixties or seventies, but he did not look old. He was full of energy and had some muscles on his body. He did look good.

The only shortcoming was that he was limping. When he walked, he limped, but he still insisted on cooking and loved to bring delicious food to the world. It was really admirable.

While Ye Xuan was scrutinizing the Old Master, the Old Master was also scrutinizing Ye Xuan.

He was very surprised. He did not expect this seven or eight-year-old child in front of him to be called "Young Master". How could someone with such wealth have a small background?

He immediately revealed a kind smile and greeted Ye Xuan respectfully.

"Hello, Young Master. Why did you call me over? Could it be that this dish doesn't suit your taste?"

When Ye Xuan heard this, he quickly waved his hand. He stood up and shook the Old Master's calloused hand with a smile.

"No, your dish is really a treasure in the world. It's so delicious that I almost chewed my tongue."

"I'm very curious when I saw that you even know how to cook the famous dish of the palace, Imperial Prince Residence's roasted deer tendon."

The Old Master smiled and wiped his sweat with a towel.

"My ancestor was a palace chef and also had some skills. When he passed it to me, he learned how to stir it with some salt. It's not a big deal."

When Ye Xuan heard about the palace chef, he had already guessed that no one other than the palace chef would be able to cook the Imperial Prince Residence's roasted deer tendon.

At that moment, he spoke frankly.

"It's like this. I plan to invest in you and get the Old Master to open a bigger restaurant. You don't have to worry about the construction of the restaurant and the recruitment of personnel. I'll do it for you."

"When it opens for business, you can just go in and cook. However, I'll leave the name of the signboard to you, Old Master."

"Moreover, I only want 10% of the profits earned every day. The rest is all yours. Old Master, what do you think?"

When the Old Master heard this, his expression immediately turned serious as he exclaimed.

"Aiyo, Young Master, I can't take this. This— This— This… You're too polite. I just play with spoons. How can I accept your great kindness?!"

He only wanted 10% of the profits. What kind of concept was this?

This was equivalent to giving all the investment money to the Old Master. He would help him open his shop for free and advertise it. Ye Xuan would be in charge of all the expenses in the early stages.

How could anyone bear to hear this?

However, Ye Xuan only smiled faintly. He held the Old Master's hand and spoke.

"Old Master, your craftsmanship is good."

With that, he turned to Liu Yanran and continued.

"Pay attention to this matter and don't make any mistakes. Set up a shop in the city center and try your best to prepare everything in a month."

Liu Yanran nodded happily and replied to him.

"Yes, yes. I promise to complete the mission."

She already felt that it was a pity that the Old Master could only stay here despite having such culinary skills.

Now that she had Young Master Ye Xuan's help, she was naturally happy for the Old Master.

When the Old Master saw that Ye Xuan was so domineering and was about to book a shop for him, he was filled with emotions and felt like he was in a dream.

In his entire life, he had been in a hurry and had never met such a benefactor. As a result, even though he had all the skills, he could only lower himself to this small shop to earn some money.

Now that he was more than 50 years old, he had finally waited for someone who truly understood him. Immediately, all kinds of emotions surged in his heart. In the end, they turned into a long sigh and he thanked him with a determined expression.

"I'm also lucky to have met a benefactor like you at this age. I'm really grateful. From now on, leave the shop to me. I'll definitely run it well and not let you down. I'll testify with my old name."

Ye Xuan looked at the Old Master's determined and excited expression and sighed in his heart. What people feared the most in their lives was not meeting someone who could really understand them.

No matter how talented he was, if no one understood him, just based on the faint fragrance in a dark alley, how much could he do?

Ye Xuan felt the same way, so the moment he saw the Old Master, he made this decision.

Now that the Old Master was indeed happy, it was exactly what Ye Xuan wanted. He smiled and nodded.

"Old Master, you're being too serious. The noble really can't take it. I don't have much ability either. I can only do my best in terms of the shop. As for the quality of the business, it will depend on your skills. I can't help you with this."

"Hehe, it's already a great help for you to buy a shop for me. I'm really grateful."

The Old Master cupped his fists and bowed twice. He had a reserved smile on his face and was a little polite.

Seeing that the matter had been settled, Ye Xuan didn't say anything else. He turned around and gave Liu Yanran a look before speaking to the Old Master.

"Then it's settled. When the shop is done, my secretary, Liu Yanran, will come over. When the time comes, you don't have to worry about everything, Old Master. Everything will be arranged."

"After the shop is sold, if there's anything, you can tell Liu Yanran. We can discuss what needs to be discussed and change what needs to be changed. It's not a big deal. Old Master, you don't have to be so polite."

"After all, it's been a long time since this shop has fallen. Old Master, with your physique, decades shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first. I won't delay the Old Master's business. There's a long queue over there."

Ye Xuan smiled and pointed at the crowd that was gradually forming outside the shop. Then, he cupped his fists at the Old Master and turned to walk out of the door.

Seeing that Ye Xuan had left, Liu Yanran didn't dare to delay. After taking two steps, she suddenly thought of something and turned to nod at the Old Master and the attendant. She smiled.

"It's fine. I'll come over and tell you the address after I've arranged the shop. We can take a look together then. If there are any decorations that don't suit the shop, we can change them. I'll leave first."

"Thank you, thank you. Hehe, I'm really sorry that this shop didn't prepare any gifts. I'll definitely visit you next time. I will never forget your kindness. Thank you."

The Old Master followed behind Liu Yanran and Ye Xuan respectfully. His attitude was extremely sincere, and the flattered expression on his face had yet to soften. He looked very simple and honest.

Liu Yanran and Ye Xuan did not say anything else. After walking out of the door, they stopped the Old Master and did not let him send them off. After all, there was still business to take care of in the shop. Moreover, the Old Master's legs were not good.

Then, they walked straight out of this deep alley. As soon as they walked out, they saw many passers-by taking photos and recording videos around the Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended edition. Their faces were filled with surprise.
