After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person

Chen Yu took out his phone and called Zhou Shengtao to briefly explain the situation here.

He then quietly moved closer to Hou Jianchang.

Six people descended from the truck, looked around, and then went onto the construction site to load the leftover steel onto the truck.

Hou Jianchang held a stick in one hand and his phone in the other, recording from a distance.

Chen Yu even picked up a steel rod, ready to rush over and capture the culprits.

Just then, a spotlight suddenly shone down, enveloping the six men.

"Who's there? What are you doing?"

A voice abruptly rang out, and the workers staying at the site rushed down en masse.

The six men were startled, quickly dropped what they were holding, and were about to drive off.

But Chen Yu was already waiting beside the truck for them.

As they ran toward him, he struck each one with the rod, knocking all six to the ground.

When the workers from the prefab house chased over, they looked ferocious, as if they were ready to tear the six men apart.

Simple workers like them truly hated these thieving scoundrels to the bone.

When they worked on construction sites before, many things were never certain.

If something really went missing, they might even have to compensate for it out of their own pockets.

Chen Yu quickly stopped the crowd.

"Folks, I've already called the police. The relevant personnel will be here soon! You all did a great job, and there will be bonuses for everyone later,"

The workers then calmed down, thanked Chen Yu, and went back to their dormitories.

Chen Yu also breathed a sigh of relief. If the workers had accidentally killed someone in the heat of the moment, things would have gotten really complicated.

It wasn't long before Zhou Shengtao hurried over with several people and took the six culprits away.

"Chen, you're really my lucky star. We've been looking for these guys for a long time, and I didn't expect them to end up in your net. If you don't consider a career in public service, it would be such a waste,"

Chen Yu coughed twice, "It was just a coincidence. I can't take much credit for it."

"Don't say that, even if you're not on the payroll yet, I've already reported this for you. As long as the approval comes through, you'll be able to draw a salary from us. We won't interfere with your daily life at all, as long as you can help us out when needed,"

Chen Yu raised an eyebrow, not quite accustomed to Zhou Shengtao's enthusiasm.

"Then thank you, Captain Zhou!"

After seeing off Zhou Shengtao, Chen Yu went with Hou Jianchang to the factory area.

After two days of operation, all the workers were essentially up to speed, working more than twice as fast as on the first day.

It wouldn't take long to complete all of Tong Group's orders.

"Old Hou, the factory is basically running smoothly now, and you don't need to keep watch here all the time, especially since there are other workers outside,"

Hou Jianchang sighed and rubbed the dark circles under his eyes.

"I'm just scared of being conned again. Besides, you're the one who invested this time. We can't let your money go to waste, can we?"

Chen Yu waved his hand, "No worries, lost money can be earned back, but a broken body is irreparable! Come over to my place sometime. I'll cook you a medicinal meal to help you recover."

Excitement flashed in Hou Jianchang's eyes.

He had heard about Chen Yu's culinary skills, especially his medicinal cuisine that had cured many complex ailments.

Moreover, the house Chen Yu now lives in was the one he had flipped and sold.

Even though he hadn't lived there for a long time, it was still his home.

"Okay, I'll definitely visit when I'm free!"

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Chen Yu drove straight back to Shuiyue No.1.

The next morning at six o'clock, when Chen Yu arrived at the shop, it was as crowded as usual, packed with people.

However, there were noticeably more people today than before.

When they saw Chen Yu, they rushed up to him as if they had seen a superstar.

"Mr. Chen, yesterday at Tianfu Small Street, you prepared a long-lost secret dish. Are you an expert in this area?"

"According to Chef Jin, that is a family heirloom recipe of theirs, even he doesn't know the essence of it, but you managed to make it. Could that mean you are suspected of stealing someone else's family recipe?"

…

Chen Yu couldn't help but frown, these people's questions had the professionalism of reporters, but what they held in their hands were equipment belonging to various self-media.

One look and he knew these were unscrupulous self-media looking for traffic.

Chen Yu didn't want to say much to them, he simply went straight into the shop.

Chu Hong saw Chen Yu come in and hurriedly greeted him.

"Brother Yu, these people came early in the morning, very annoying. Some have even accused us of stealing others' recipes. The three chefs are also quite upset."

Chen Yu turned his head to look at the kitchen and noticed Wang Qingshan, Ning Kai, and Li Gang fuming as they tossed pots and pans around.

"It's fine, let them talk. The reputation of our shop stands firm, it's not something they can ruin with a few words."

Chu Hong nodded, looked angrily at the door for a moment, and then went to attend to the customers.

Without saying much more, Chen Yu rolled up his sleeves and went straight to the kitchen.

"Chefs, do we have plenty of fish in today's delivered ingredients?"

Wang Qingshan glanced at the water tank beside him: "It's okay, what's up? Are we featuring fish today?"

Chen Yu nodded: "Something like that. It's just a plain old fish fillet! I'll need the three of you to go out and buy some more fish; we might not have enough."

With that, Chen Yu began to seamlessly wield his knife like flowing water.

It wasn't long before a large number of golden, crispy fish fillets were served out.

The aroma that spread in that moment attracted the customers in the shop to gather around.

"It smells so good, what is this?"

Chen Yu chuckled: "This is the legendary 'Five Dragons Leaping to the Golden Palace', but to me, it's just an ordinary fish fillet, five yuan a piece. If you like it, line up here!"

With those words, the entire shop suddenly buzzed with excitement, and a long line formed before long.

Actually, Chen Yu had noticed when he arrived that those so-called self-media might have been invited by the people from Tianfu Small Street.

Yesterday, he had only conquered Chef Jin and the diners of the day, not the capital behind the scene.

The incident yesterday could help them create a wave of traffic for Tianfu Small Street, but it would also plummet their reputation.

From then on, the dish 'Five Dragons Leaping to the Golden Palace' would probably have to be removed from their signboard.

In order to minimize losses, they invited a multitude of self-media to maliciously smear Chen Yu.

Since they had struck first, Chen Yu had no intention of being polite and directly introduced the so-called fish fillet to his shop!
