111: There will always be a man who will take the risk when there is a big reward.

With Young Master Li's wealth, what delicious food hadn't he eaten?

His discerning palate was obvious!

However, Yinhua City had no Michelin-starred restaurants, nor any famous grand eateries, making it practically a culinary desert.

At this thought, Li Yuntu's heart sank halfway.

Fortunately, at this moment, his assistant's eyes darted around, and she offered a suggestion.

"Boss, they say the best experts are among the common folk. Yinhua City is so big, there might be some niche but truly delicious restaurants, don't you think?"

Li Yuntu's expression shifted slightly, and he quickly gestured for her to continue.

Encouraged, the assistant spoke with increasing enthusiasm.

"Just like us girls, we love to go out and eat when we're off. With so many people in the company, someone must have stumbled upon an unexpectedly delicious meal somewhere. Why don't we ask everyone in the group chat for their suggestions?"

"Good, good, good!"

Li Yuntu happily said "good" three times.

He immediately turned to the department managers, instructing them to send out a mass message to solicit everyone's suggestions.

Since it concerned everyone's interests, no one dared to be vague and quickly complied.

Soon, all the company's work groups, including the notification group for temporary staff, became lively.

This unprecedented notification also shook out the 'read-only' lurkers in various groups.

[What the heck, asking us to provide information on good food?]

[Is the company planning to transition into the food industry?]

[Extra! Extra! The company is holding a food festival!]

[...]

All sorts of guesses abounded, but no one provided reliable information; most were just chatting and joking.

During this time, rumors of the company absconding, and other nonsensical things, kept circulating.

This infuriated Li Yuntu, who had been anxiously following the messages.

But anger aside, business couldn't be forgotten.

Li Yuntu, who was usually stingy, knew that a great reward would attract brave people, so he proposed an incentive.

"Employees who provide truly effective information will be promoted one rank! And receive an additional... two thousand in salary!"

After this message was sent to the group, the many employees who had been bragging and joking instantly went wild.

Just by providing food information, they could easily get a promotion and a raise!

Such good fortune must only happen in dreams!

Immediately, every employee began to rack their brains for suggestions.

The unread messages in each group also skyrocketed.

Li Yuntu hummed twice with satisfaction.

It was tough for the department managers, who had to filter constantly. A slight distraction, and the unread messages would turn into 99+... After a busy day, Lu Yu returned to his dormitory and was teased by his colleagues once again.

Lu Yu angrily pulled his bed curtain shut, then closed his eyes, intending to take a nap.

But not long after he fell asleep, his phone vibrated non-stop as if it had gone crazy.

That was fine; he could just turn off his phone.

However, the loud shouts and calls from his colleagues in the dormitory made Lu Yu incredibly curious.

He quickly opened the group chat, and upon seeing it, his blood rushed to his head, and his sausage-like lips, which had somewhat deflated, became noticeably swollen again.

"Hahahaha, the God of Wealth protects me!"

Lu Yu's wailing did not attract his colleagues' attention.

Only because they were all shouting the same way.

Lu Yu peered through his bed curtain, watching his colleagues furiously typing, and snorted.

You bumpkins, have you ever eaten real delicious food? Getting so excited!

Then, he quickly got out of bed, put on his shoes, and secretly slipped out of the dormitory.

After thinking about it, he was still uneasy, so he ran all the way to the rooftop.

After looking left and right and finding he was the only one on the rooftop, he furtively dialed Li Yuntu's number.

After a series of busy tones, the call finally connected.

Before Li Yuntu could speak, he excitedly whispered, "Boss, I saw your notification! I have reliable information here..."

However, before he could finish, Li Yuntu had already hung up on him.

[...]

Lu Yu awkwardly held up his phone, disheveled in the wind.

At this moment, in the conference room.

Li Yuntu frowned, his expression somewhat displeased.

Lu Yu could mess up his mouth like that just by eating something; he dared not listen to him.

If Young Master Li got sick because of it, the entire company might be dragged down.

No sooner had he hung up on Lu Yu than his phone rang again.

Li Yuntu initially didn't want to answer, but seeing the glances, intentional or unintentional, from everyone in the conference room, he reluctantly picked up.

This time, however, he spoke first.

"You brat, if you dare to lie to me, you'll be guarding the company gate tomorrow!"

On the other end of the phone, Lu Yu let out an "uh," seemingly startled by the remark, and didn't speak for a moment.

Li Yuntu didn't wait for Lu Yu's reply and was about to hang up.

The next moment, however, Lu Yu's voice rang out, anxious and flustered.

"Boss, don't hang up! I really do have reliable information, I guarantee it's the best food in the world!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Li Yuntu's eyes.

He knew Lu Yu, though timid, was very careful with his words.

This was also why he had appointed Lu Yu as an interviewer.

Could it be true?

Li Yuntu stroked his chin, deciding to give Lu Yu a chance.

"Then speak. If it's true, you won't be shortchanged."

Lu Yu immediately spoke with excitement.

"Boss, this was my unexpected discovery today! Their noodles are the best I've ever eaten! No exaggeration! The flavor is truly exquisite! I even think I wouldn't necessarily trade it for a Manchu Han Imperial Feast!"

Seeing Lu Yu unable to stop talking, Li Yuntu quickly interjected.

"Stop, stop, stop! Manchu Han Imperial Feast, indeed! You're getting more and more exaggerated. Where is this place?"

Interrupted, Lu Yu chuckled awkwardly, then said, "It's at the Talent Market."

Li Yuntu was clearly somewhat surprised.

"There's good food at the Talent Market? Why didn't I notice it before? Is it new?"

Lu Yu quickly nodded.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's new!"

Li Yuntu nodded knowingly and immediately instructed,

"All right, then I'll take Young Master Li there tomorrow at noon. You tell the owner in advance, don't slight Young Master Li."

Lu Yu immediately promised excitedly.

After hanging up the phone, Li Yuntu gave another instruction to the department managers.

"An employee reported a good restaurant to me, but just in case, don't stop collecting food information. If you find anything good, contact me immediately!"

A hint of envy appeared in the department managers' eyes, but they quickly nodded.

"Understood."

"Understood."

"Understood."

[...]

...Having received Li Yuntu's reply, Lu Yu was overjoyed, and his steps down the stairs were noticeably lighter.

"Hehehe, it seems the boss is also a person who doesn't fuss over minor details. As long as the food is good enough, he's willing to take people even to a small food stall!"

"After working for so many years, it's finally my turn for a promotion and a raise!"

In his excitement, he completely failed to notice that there seemed to be a misunderstanding in their previous conversation...
