Nevertheless, since Hong Dali said that he wanted to go out and play, they definitely had to follow him. They must learn from his experience in squandering!

Previously he had said that he wanted to start up a theme restaurant, but no matter how they thought of it, they still couldn’t figure out how this thing could earn him money...

“Young Master Dali,” Mu Yuxi whispered. “You were thinking of all these while you were having classes in the day?”

Hong Dali nodded and said, “Yes, I can’t be bothered with those things the teacher says, so I studied how to play. I feel that this themed restaurant that I’m going to build this time is quite interesting. Aiya, I had thought of building such a restaurant since a long time ago!”

See that? Sleeping in class is a source of inspiration!

Mu Yuxi secretly decided that in the future, she would sleep more and read more s in the day too!

After they had gone downstairs and got onto the car, the group went all the way towards the hotel in West Fourth Loop that was bought by Hong Dali previously apart from Hung Lung Hotel, Fu Hai Hotel!

This Fu Hai Hotel had enjoyed a great boost in fame because of Dali’s “Who listens as the plum flowers fall to the jade flute’s tune” and “Fine Match Soup.” Currently, its business was quite good, earning at least more money than that time when it had just been bought over by Hong Dali.

Hong Dali led the group inside. A staff had long spotted them and instantly cheered. “Young Master is here!”

Instantly, everyone gathered at once and stood orderly in two lines. “Greetings, Young Master!”

The customers who were having their meals in the hotel took out their phones and rapidly took pictures...

Hong Dali led the way inside, and he said as he walked, “En, good job. It’s clean. Reward, 2,000 each!” Being so filthy rich indeed made him different, just the tips alone were 2,000 to each person. All of the staff exclaimed, “Thank you, My Lord!”

After the reward had been given out, the lobby manager bowed and asked, “Young Master, what do you want to eat today?”

This was the God of Fortune, of course, he had to serve him well. If he served him well, happiness would definitely drop from the sky and money would come all at once!

In the end, unexpectedly, Hong Dali touched his chin and looked around, then he directly said, “Remove!”

Instantly, a few lackeys were already on standby to remove the signboard. The lobby manager almost fell to the ground. “Young Master, this is... Please tell me if there’s anything that I didn’t do well. You can’t remove it, this renovation was all quite expensive...”

“Oh, it’s nothing, you’ve done quite a good job.” Hong Dali grinned. “I’m just planning to change its style. It’s quite boring to remain like that every day...”

You could change it if you want to, but what would it be changed to?

Just then, someone courageously asked, “Young Master Dali, you said to change styles? Then what kind of style do you plan to change it to? Your ideas are all top-notch, can you disclose some of it to us?”

“Sure!” Hong Dali beamed with delight. “Change it into a Wuxia-themed restaurant. What do you think? I’ve even thought of the name already, it’s called ‘Wisdom’s Village’!”

“Wisdom’s Village!” The customer in front of him was a film lover of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre: Pugilistic World. That scene where the male lead treated the female lead’s injury, and then there was huge havoc at Wisdom’s Village was loved greatly by him. Thus, upon hearing Hong Dali’s words, he instantly gave a big thumbs up. “Young Master Dali is amazing, just this idea is simply so impressive!” Afterward, that person continued, “Young Master Dali, then, can you consider opening a restaurant chain for this Wisdom’s Village? If it can be done, I’ll help to manage it. I’m based in Beijin, it won’t have any conflict of interests with yours here!”

“A chain restaurant?” Hong Dali touched his chin. “OK, let’s not say so much already. I’m not very concerned about this type of thing. I’ll think of how to carry out the renovation first.”

As he spoke, he gestured to the male lackey. “You, come over! Do you know about this Wuxia-style? What should you say when customers enter?”

That male lackey imitated a waiter as he took a towel and placed it on his shoulder. “Aiyo, Sir. You’ve come. Please come inside! Our shop has premium beef and wine. It’s said that nobody can get through three bowls of wine without getting drunk! Sir, why don’t you give it a try?”

“That’s the way!” Hong Dali looked at the lobby manager. “How’s it, can you learn from him?”

The lobby manager’s eyes immediately lit up!

This is good! The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre: Pugilistic World was still being widely praised and discussed. If they opened a Wuxia-themed restaurant, it would definitely gain lots of popularity! Thus, the lobby manager fiercely nodded, “Young Master, I understand. This is simple!” The lobby manager mimicked Hong Dali’s actions as he snapped his fingers. “Everyone understands what to do, right? Let’s go!”

“Not bad!” Hong Dali nodded. “You do have some ability. Then let’s get going!”

Thus, the few of them entered again. On the lobby manager’s shoulder was a table cloth. He rushed over and bowed. “Aiyo, Sir, you’ve come. Please come inside! We have premium food and drinks here, what would you like to order?”

Those customers around laughed and started taking pictures. Quite a number of people whispered to each other, “This is interesting, haha. I’ve really not gone to a restaurant with such a style.” “After it’s reformed, we’ll come and have a look again!” “Of course, Young Master Dali’s ideas are all made of gold!”

The eyes of that person that wanted to act as Hong Dali’s agent for the restaurant chains also lit up. Just this style alone was already unique and attractive!

“Give me a plate of each type of food, let me have a taste of them.” Hong Dali found a table. “Aiya, what’s this table called?”

“This table...” The lobby manager couldn’t really react to it. “What can this table be called?”

“Stupid.” Hong Dali pouted. “Why are you so bad at divergent thinking? This table will be called Black Wood Cliff!”

“Black... Black Wood Cliff...” The lobby manager was almost scared to death. “Young Master, you’re planning to start your own sect?”

“En, these words have a flavor of the pugilistic world.” Hong Dali casually started to point out. “That table would be called the Beggars’ Sect, that one will be called Shaolin Temple, and name the rest with all those Qingcheng, Wudang, Huashan, Songshan, Ming Cult and so on!”

By now, the eyes of all the customers had lit up brightly. Those names that Hong Dali said were all the names of the sects that often appeared in Wuxia s. Black Wood Cliff was the famous big antagonist in The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre: Pugilistic World. With so many such tables put together...

“Dali, you’re planning to start a battle in the pugilistic world!” Tang Muxin, with Little Meow in her arms, objected. “You have to match them well together, the Five Mountain Sword Sects can’t be put together with Black Wood Cliff!”

“I’m only giving my opinion.” Hong Dali grinned. “The exact details have to be arranged by this manager here, right?”

“Right, right. I’ve got an idea!” The lobby manager had a big burst of inspiration. “If this table can’t be named, then put a small wooden table and a long stool at the side! Those of the sects can be put in the chartered rooms, and over here will be Ming Cult, and over there will be Black Wood Cliff. We’ll change all the chairs inside to fauteuil chairs. How great is that!”

“En, good idea!” Hong Dali nodded. “Then what are you still standing here for? Serve the dishes!”

“Alright!” The lobby manager gestured towards the kitchen. “Chef, prepare to cook!” As he spoke, he brought the menu over. “Young Master, what would you like to order?”

“Let me see.” Hong Dali took the menu and pointed at it. “Change all the names!”

“Ah?!” The lobby manager asked, “What should they be changed to?”

“For example, this one.” Hong Dali randomly pointed at a dish named “Beautiful Pork Knuckles.” “This, change it to Dragon Taming Palm!”

Alright, braised pork knuckles have become Dragon Taming Palm...

All the customers around clapped. “This is good!”

The lobby manager was soaked in sweat. “Then what about this... Four Happiness Balls?”

Hong Dali said without hesitation, “Dali(Big Strength) Balls, can increase five years’ worth of strength and skills!”

The surrounding customers clapped!

Lobby manager: “Braised pork in soy sauce?”

Hong Dali: “Flame Knife!”

Lobby manager: “This Clear Noodles in Chili Sauce?”

Hong Dali: One Sun Finger!”

Hong Dali had named every dish according to their methods of cooking and their appearances. Eventually, the lobby manager gritted his teeth. “Then, this Deep-fried Goat Penis...”

Hong Dali immediately decided. “Name it Sunflower Treasured Book!”

A thunderous round of applause sounded all around!

It was really not easy to come up with such nice names for such ordinary dishes!

By then, all the surrounding customers were already pretty excited. They really wanted to try the Sunflower Treasure Book...

Now that things had been done this way, the Wuxia-themed restaurant was finally decided. Meanwhile, Mu Yuxi wrote furiously on her small notebook at one side...

“Title: Diary of squandering

“Yesterday Dali said he wanted to improve the renovation and style, and today he really came!

“And what I didn’t expect it to be so creative! A Wuxia-style layout, and riding on the explosive success of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre: Pugilistic World, he’s going to open a theme restaurant on that. Probably nobody would have thought of that, right? Moreover, judging from the reactions of the hotel customers present, they’re all very interested in it. There was even someone who said he wanted to set up restaurant chains! action

“No wonder he could become the family’s Rookie King of the year. If I still had some doubts about it previously, now, I totally concede to him.

“Squandering truly takes skills. Dali’s squandering is full of amazing ideas. If others were to squander, they’d probably only mess things up and fail...

“Looks like I’ll have to continue learning in future. Young Master Dali’s amazingly creative ideas are, as expected, not something that ordinary people like me would be able to think of. Just this Wuxia-theme restaurant business service alone will be able to earn at least hundreds of millions of franchise fees based on the foundation built by the movie!

“This is the essence of squandering!”

While Mu Yuxi was writing her diary, Catherine had already run out to make a call—

Catherine: “Sir, Young Master Dali has done something new again!”

Horace: “So fast? I’ve just lied down, lady.”

Catherine: “The problem is that this time, it looks like Young Master Dali is doing something very big. And it’s very special as well.”

Horace: “Oh? What thing? What’s unique about it?”

Catherine: “Young Master Dali plans to open a Wuxia-themed restaurant. Currently, it looks like the idea is very well-received, and there was even someone who wanted to collaborate with him and start up a franchise on the spot. I predict that just the franchise fees alone will be enough to bring in hundreds of millions of yearly earnings.”

Horace: “So impressive! Continue following him for now, I’ll call the team of professionals right away to analyze this!”

Very soon, the team of professionals that specialized in studying into Hong Dali’s behavior and intentions took their places. Horace asked, “Hong Dali has started up a Wuxia-theme restaurant today. Analyze and see what’s his purpose of doing so! Quick!”

Afterward, the team of professionals, with their eyebags still remaining under their eyes, started to analyze. One person said, “Restaurant chain? Will it clash with ours? Our Mc Condalds and Kenducky have many franchises in Heavenly State!”

Another person said, “I think it’s very possible! Boss, think about it. Since Hong Dali wants to set up restaurant chains, he must find the best location and the best service. If all the consumers go to his restaurant franchise to eat, then our Mc Conalds and Kenducky franchises will definitely suffer a setback!”

The third person said, “Looks like Hong Dali is going to launch his attack against our franchises so soon. This tactic, according to the Heavenly State’s military tactics, is called feigning action in one place and make the real move in another. It’s really powerful!”

Horace: “Makes sense!”

Afterward, he took his phone and informed Catherine: “Continue keeping a close eye on Hong Dali. Once there’s any news, you must report at the first instance! Never hide any information!”

Catherine: “Yes... Yes, sir!”
