1398: Chapter 679: Provincial City Encounter_2 1398: Chapter 679: Provincial City Encounter_2 It was such a coincidence that Yan Fei ran into him in such a large Provincial City.
Yan Fei and another person whispered behind a tree for a while before Chen Yingjun leisurely strolled over with a girl, completely unaware as they passed by.
Yan Fei called out softly from behind, “Chen Yingjun, you’re in trouble, co with us!”
Chen Yingjun’s body froze on the spot, then he slowly turned around, his eyes lifeless and his face pale.
“I an, Old Chen, it didn’t have to be like this, right?
Can’t you take a joke?” Chen Yingjun’s reaction actually startled Yan Fei and Xu Xiaoyan; it was just a joke, did it need to scare him like that?
Hearing Yan Fei’s words, Chen Yingjun ca back to his senses and instantly relaxed, his stiff body softening, “Brother Fei, is that you?
Do you know you can scare a person to death?
I almost got confused by your fright.”
In front of his girlfriend and his own wife, there were so questions that weren’t appropriate to ask, so Yan Fei smiled and said, “I saw you coming from a distance and thought it was quite a coincidence, so I made a joke.
Is it not busy at ho anymore?”
“How busy can I be?
It’s the sa whether I’m there or not,” Chen Yingjun replied irritably, seemingly really shaken by the scare, which was an unusual reaction for him toward Yan Fei.
“It’s better when I’m not there.
When those rich folks go in to dine, many of them tip the waitstaff like they do abroad, leaving extra money without asking for change.
If I was there, they wouldn’t be able to accept those tips so easily, but in my absence, they benefit a bit and work harder.”
Yan Fei was taken aback, “It’s such a simple thing, why don’t you just make it a rule that the extra tips go to them?”
After exchanging a few words, Chen Yingjun also recovered, and seeing Xu Xiaoyan whispering with his girlfriend, he chuckled softly, “Brother Fei, you’re used to being a big boss and don’t understand the struggles of ordinary folks.
If I officially allow them to take it, that makes it a legitimate inco.
You know, a wife is not as good as a mistress, and a mistress is not as good as a stolen affair; that adrenaline from covert inco can’t compare to legitimate earnings.
It’s more valuable when it feels like a hidden rule; they’re more motivated!”
Yan Fei thought it over for a mont, and it sowhat made sense.
For ordinary waitstaff, salaries are fixed and bonuses are minimal, not to ntion that they might lose money if there’s a custor complaint.
But with this hidden inco, they naturally feel a bit of pride — it’s human nature, extra inco feels different when it’s perceived as a ‘covert bonus’ compared to when it’s legally obtained.
If it’s a lawful inco, they feel entitled and take their pay boldly.
But keeping this sense of pride, they might also feel sowhat guilty, which makes them work even harder!
anwhile, Xu Xiaoyan was pulling that girl, repeatedly calling her Sister Huihui, and they soon drifted a bit away from the n.
Yan Fei then asked, “What was going on just now, is there sothing wrong at ho?”
Chen Yingjun paused before sighing deeply, “Isn’t it said that one should earn money rightfully to spend it peacefully and not worry about sleeping poorly at night!
It’s all because of my shady past in car dealing, with rumors getting closer to these days, you see I can’t even stay at ho comfortably!”
“Without that shady past, you hardly stayed at ho before, did you?” Yan Fei scorned him.
“But it’s good in a way, you get to stay away from those old circles more, avoiding potential troubles.”
“Exactly!” Chen Yingjun sighed again.
“I’m currently considering spending so money on charitable deeds to build a good reputation.”
“That works too.” Yan Fei nodded.
“If you’ve thought about it, go ahead and do it.
Don’t just hang around your girlfriend, make sure you don’t neglect what needs to be done.”
“Yeah!” Chen Yingjun hesitated.
“But I’ve been thinking about expanding further, finding a place to open another restaurant.
I’ve realized that there are more wealthy people these days than I ever knew.
I used to think that the rich folks I knew were all of them, but seeing how booming the restaurant business is, there are so many more low-key rich people out there!”
“Isn’t that obvious!” Yan Fei laughed.
“You think rich people are all like those you knew, flaunting their fancy cars and playing golf?
There are so many legitimate businessn who don’t show off.
Go ahead and open a new place, if you’re short on cash just say the word, from this end…”
“No need, no need,” Chen Yingjun waved his hands, a grateful look on his face.
“Really, no need, Brother Fei.
I’ve been ssing around for so long, besides what I earn from the restaurant now, I had also secretly prepared so reserve funds for ergencies during my reckless tis, which I never touched.
Now I think it’s okay to use it, as long as the new place kicks off well, it won’t take long to earn it back.”
Seeing his reaction, Yan Fei dropped the topic.
He knew very well that despite Chen Yingjun’s Oil-headed Powder-faced, Young Master appearance, he was very astute in his dealings.
That so-called reserve fund, put plainly, was ergency getaway money he set aside from his previous dubious dealings, unsure of their outcos.
Now that he was running a legitimate business, using that money was indeed appropriate.
