Daddy, Come Home For Dinner!

Chapter 1111: Chapter 1111: He Really Loves Making Money

"After practice, you don’t need to clean up; we have staff dedicated to cleaning. This includes the student dormitory, which is also taken care of," said Lu Chenghong. "We can say that our school’s students just need to focus on mastering culinary skills."

As for when you work in a restaurant in the future, where chefs also need to take care of cleaning duties,

that won’t happen for students from Changping Academy.

Graduating from Changping means starting off at a higher level than most people.

It’s impossible to start as an apprentice upon graduation.

At the very least, you’ll be a sous chef.

If you enter a restaurant under Changping, even as a newcomer, you don’t need to handle those tasks; there are dedicated staff for that.

Everyone has their own duties, without those pressures or so-called tempering.

If you open your own restaurant, that certainly won’t happen either.

So, within Changping Academy, there is no intention to make students clean up themselves.

"The school also often has tests. Like regular schools, there are monthly exams, mid-terms, and finals," Lu Chenghong patted his head. "I actually forgot that regular universities don’t have monthly exams."

"But the exams at Changping are strict, more like high school exams: monthly tests, mid-term exams, final exams, and graduation exams."

"Monthly test results count toward credits, as do mid-term and final exams. If your scores across the year aren’t passing, you might be held back or even expelled. So it’s not all smooth sailing at Changping."

"For small daily matters, our school won’t let students worry about them. Instead, since the school has created excellent conditions for you to focus solely on your culinary skills, if you still don’t achieve good grades, it’s really unjustifiable," Lu Chenghong felt that expelling a student wouldn’t be too harsh.

Ye Fei nodded.

"But what if these practice rooms aren’t enough? Or during exams, if a student has some secret techniques or doesn’t want others to see the dishes they’re preparing, what should they do?"

"Please come with me," Lu Chenghong said with a smile.

They went up to the next floor, where Lu Chenghong introduced, "This entire floor consists of individual practice rooms, accessed by swiping cards."

Ye Fei noticed a small card reader at the entrance of each practice room.

"These practice rooms need to be reserved in advance and have usage fees, charged hourly," said Lu Chenghong. "Otherwise, everyone would skip using the large practice rooms and queue up for these individual ones, which wouldn’t be enough."

However, Ye Fei was quite suspicious, thinking Zhao Guoxian was cleverly coming up with ways to charge fees.

Ye Fei asked Zhao Gushen, "Was this idea also Gu Xian’s?"

Zhao Gushen nodded with a suppressed smile, quietly saying to Ye Fei, "Don’t think Changping Academy is less profitable than things like Changping and Changlin. Actually, aside from tuition fees, there are many other profits from Changping Academy. Even the inconspicuous shared bicycles have been turned into a booming business by Gu Xian."

Ye Fei quietly muttered, "No wonder you have to assign him more work; Gu Xian is quite good at making money."

Moreover, even though people know he is earning, no one thinks his ways of making money are bad.

That’s quite impressive.

In everyday life, while consuming, you inevitably hear complaints.

Like "How can this be sold at such a high price? Why not just rob people?"

Things like that.

But for Zhao Guoxian, you’ve never heard such remarks.

"Gu Xian may be lazy and dislikes work. To ensure his rest time, he has to continually boost his work efficiency, but he does love earning money," Zhao Gushen explained, "He’s a bit contradictory."

"It’s fine to let him work, but it must not sacrifice his rest time. Daily work must stick to eight hours without any exception. No amount of work can exceed eight hours a day."

"He firmly believes that life is hard, so one cannot waste it. One must rest well and experience the wonders of the world, and not let work occupy most of it," Zhao Gushen said.

"That’s why he especially values work efficiency. But once he takes up a task, he has to do it well," Zhao Gushen said.

"It’s a bit of an obsession," Ye Fei remarked.

Who would have thought that the cheerful guy who came to the family house during New Year is so diverse and complex.

Zhao Gushen nodded with a smile, saying, "Moreover, he really enjoys highly efficient ways to earn money. Simply put, he loves making money."

"Dislikes working long hours but loves making money," Ye Fei shook her head in admiration, "Gu Xian really is quite a character."

Zhao Gushen held back his laughter, and the two continued their quiet conversation, while Lu Chenghong sensibly maintained a distance, not eavesdropping.

He stopped to introduce anything noteworthy along the way.

Without realizing it, they reached the student dormitory.

Due to the design of Changping Academy, student dormitories are not very tall.

The uniform structure is four-story buildings, which don’t look out of place in a Chinese architectural style.

Although the exterior is Chinese style, the interior is very convenient.

Despite being four-story buildings, they’re equipped with elevators.

Each corridor on every floor has vending machines.

From beverages to snacks, a wide variety is available.

Completely meeting daily snack demands.

"Most students don’t live here, using it as a lounge instead, so it’s usually quiet with few people going in and out. Only during exam periods, when students are busy preparing and often working late, do they stay here. So everyone pays accommodation fees to reserve a room for emergency use."

"The dormitories have plenty of vacancies, enough to go around. Each unit has the same layout, and later, I’ll show you the records of vacant floors for you to choose from," Lu Chenghong explained.

He found an empty apartment to show Ye Fei and Zhao Gushen.

The room was small yet exquisite.

It’s a one-bedroom, one living room unit, equipped with a kitchen.

If expectations are not high, one can even practice cooking right in the apartment.

After becoming familiar with the academy, Ye Fei chose an apartment on the second floor.

Not as exposed as the first floor where everyone coming and going could see inside, and convenient due to not being too high up.

She wouldn’t stay there regularly, just for resting.

Ye Fei’s requirements were quite simple.

Everything is part of Changping’s own.

No tuition or accommodation fees are necessary.

Ye Fei just needs to carry a bag for classes.

As an auditor without academic status, but since she’s using Changping’s facilities, she needs to have her records properly managed.

Once everything was taken care of, Ye Fei left with Zhao Gushen and the little one.
