C1 Open a Restaurant
"That's why life is always unsatisfactory."
Wang Lin's gaze landed on his sister who was sleeping on the bed and Wei Ran sighed.
Wang Siya had just turned 16 this year and today was Monday. Logically speaking, she should be attending school.
However, the sudden change from a month ago had taken away the siblings' parents, leaving behind a heavy debt.
Huaxia people had a tradition of relying on the heavens to eat. As a coastal city of Haiya City, Wang Lin's parents naturally became fishermen.
Compared to other families, Wang Lin's family's days were considered popular after his parents saved up a small restaurant.
Unfortunately, this sudden natural disaster had broken this ordinary and peaceful life.
Because of this, Wang Lin bid farewell to his high-spirited self when he had just left university. He left a financial company that he had gone through great difficulty to enter and returned to his hometown that he had been away from for a long time.
After settling the funeral of his parents and paying compensation for the crew members who had died in the sea with his parents, Wang Lin found that the only thing left was this seafood restaurant.
Thinking of this, he shook his head and came back to his senses. He reached out and touched his sister, who seemed to have had a nightmare and called his name in a low voice. A bitter smile appeared on his face.
Wang Lin, from now on, I will have to rely on you to take care of Ya.
Send her back to school as soon as possible.
With this thought in mind, he stood up and looked at the seafood restaurant that had been around for a while. He went down the ladder and opened the door to get some fresh air.
However, when the door was pushed open, he heard a familiar voice.
"Oh, is the door open to welcome us? Wang Lin, it seems like you know about your father?"
The mocking tone made Wang Lin frown. He looked up and saw his uncle and aunt walking over with red faces.
"It's uncle and aunt. What's the matter?"
Wang Lin did not let go of his brow. Instead, he frowned more and more.
These two nominal relatives of his did not have a good influence on him. He remembered that when Ya called to report her funeral, she had said that... Before he came back, they had come to his house several times. They had coaxed Ya into transferring the restaurant, so Wang Lin naturally did not treat them well.
The two of them looked at each other. Wang Lin's uncle, Chen Yao, let out a light laugh. He walked into the sixth floor from his side, as if he was inspecting his own territory. He looked up and down at the restaurant, then took out a piece of paper from his pocket. He slapped it on the table in the hall.
"You didn't know about this when you went out to study for the past few years." Chen Yonian smacked his lips and knocked on the piece of paper. "This is a loan from your father. Three years ago, he borrowed five hundred thousand dollars from us to sell fishing boats. Today is the day we pay our debts. "
Wang Lin picked it up and looked at it. His face sank. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Uncle, you have seen it too. Our family is now like this. We can't even take out that much money. Can we..."
He did not know where this thing came from, and it did have his father's signature on it. He even made a handprint, so it was impossible to shirk the responsibility. But if it could be delayed for a few more days, Wang Lin was confident that he could return it. After all, it was almost the peak of Haiya City's tourism season, and the location of his shop was pretty good. Five hundred thousand, at most it would be the peak of the season twice.
"What? You want to go back on your word?" However, before Wang Lin could finish his words, his aunt, Xu Caixia, rudely interrupted him. She sneered and said, "It's written in black and white. Let me tell you, if it wasn't for your father, I came to find you before the funeral! It has been delayed for a month. You must return it today! "
Chen Yaonian, who was standing at the side, acted as if he was playing a joke. He also said with a smile," Wang Lin, I have an idea for you. If you really don't return it, then... He would use this restaurant to pay off his debt. After all, they were relatives. I can agree to it even if I suffer a loss. "
Wang Lin clenched his fist. He understood that today wouldn't be a good day. The two of them clearly had something to rely on for their aggressive attitudes.
Sure enough, before he could reply, Xu Caixia continued, "Before we came, we already applied for judicial intervention. Let me tell you this clearly. My cousin is a political counselor in our district. If you don't agree today, let's use judicial means! "
Chen Yaonian also said half-threateningly and half-warning, "If you go to the police station and squat for ten days to half a month, what will happen to your sister Wang Siya then... Hehe, you have to think it through. "
"Crack."
The promissory note in Wang Lin's hand turned into a crease.
He took a deep breath and his body trembled due to anger.
After a long time, Wang Lin finally calmed down. His eyes were filled with pride as he said, "You will regret it."
"I want to see what a little kid like you can do to make us regret. Just say it. Do you want to enter the number or return the money?"
...
At noon, Wang Lin still brought Wang Siya out of the shop.
In Haiya City, he did not have any friends who could speak to him in public. His parents had been honest and honest for the rest of their lives. Therefore, for Ya's safety, he had to compromise and sign the transfer agreement that Chen Yaonian took out.
Wang Lin touched the bag on his shoulder. Inside the bag was the 50,000 yuan that Chen Yaonian had given him as a charity. He looked back at the restaurant that had changed hands for the last time and forced a smile. He touched his sister's forehead. "Ya, I'm going to make you suffer."
Wang Siya pursed her lips and shook her head firmly. She already knew what had happened. In her heart, other than feeling inhumane towards her uncle and aunt, she also felt sad. She only felt attachment to Wang Lin, so she comforted him sensibly, "Brother, I believe you. Let's work hard together."
Wang Siya's understanding made Wang Lin feel even more uncomfortable. He patted his sister's shoulder and said, "Ya is really obedient."
She was already bullied. If she didn't take revenge, would she still be a man?
Even if it was for Ya, I have to make a name for myself!
The thoughts in his heart quietly grew.
Three hours later, Wang Lin signed the contract of the real estate agent who rushed over and bought a shop that was close to the street.
Including the living space of the inner room, Wang Lin spent twenty thousand on the sixty square meter shop. He packed up the inner room, put his things away, and then went out to buy some food.
He just graduated and didn't have much work experience, nor did he have any connections. It was very difficult for his income to cover Ya's life and school fees, so he planned to open a tourist restaurant like his parents.
It was soon the peak season of traveling in Haiya City. If business was good, he could at least give Ya a stable life and a learning environment.
He thought of this and looked at the ingredients that he had no idea where to start. He gritted his teeth and picked up the kitchen knife.
