Married at First Sight Chapter 4481
Zhan Muchen thought for a moment and said, “Is Uncle Seven’s cooking better than Uncle Six’s? If it is, we’ll eat at home. If not, Uncle Seven can take us out to eat.”
“Mom said every place has its own local specialties. I want to try the local food.”
Zhan Wei smiled. “Uncle Seven has learned to cook too, but he’s still not as skilled as Uncle Six. Your Sixth Uncle has loved cooking since childhood and has learned from many great chefs.”
“How can Uncle Seven compare to that? But his cooking is tasty too.”
“Let’s go out to eat. I’ll take you to the hotel we’re staying at this afternoon. The food there is delicious and features Yangcheng flavors.”

“OK!”
Zhan Muchen clapped his hands happily.
Beibei, standing nearby, saw her brother clapping and joined in, clapping her hands with joy.
Serenity said, “It doesn’t matter where we eat, but cooking at home is a bit more tiring.”
I guess Seventh Brother doesn’t usually cook.
Serenity had been in his kitchen before and checked the fridge. There were very few ingredients—mostly things for breakfast.
Looks like he eats breakfast at home and has lunch and dinner outside.
After all, he has to socialize.
“Seventh Brother, does your company have a cafeteria?” Serenity asked.
“Yes, there are two cafeterias—one for employees and one for management.”
“My company’s cafeteria needs a large amount of vegetables and fruits every day. Sister-in-law, does your company ship produce to Yangcheng? If so, I can ask our cafeteria’s purchasing department to source from you.”
Good resources should stay within the family.
He thought about it. Given the distance between their locations, if his sister-in-law’s business wasn’t doing well in Yangcheng, it might not be worth the cost to ship such a small amount of goods just for his company.
However, if a large wholesaler already bought from her, they might be able to include his company’s order in the shipment, which could help reduce the overall cost.
“Grain from the north is sent south, and vegetables from the south go north. Most of the vegetables from my market are shipped north, but no wholesalers from Yangcheng place orders with me.”
“The distance is too great. Even if your company buys a lot of produce, the quantity still wouldn’t justify the cost. There’s no need to buy from me.”
“It’s just too expensive. Does your company offer food subsidies, cover meals fully, or do employees pay themselves?”
“We provide subsidies. The company covers 70 percent, and employees pay 30 percent. Meals for management are fully covered.”
Management is considered talent, and of course, their benefits should be better than those of regular employees.
“Forget it. Like my sister-in-law said, no matter how much my company orders, the quantity is still limited. There’s really no need to transport goods from so far away. The produce at her market is indeed better than what’s available here, but the prices are slightly higher. When you add in shipping costs, the total food expenses go up.”
Yangtai Company’s meal standards are aligned with typical fast-food restaurants in Yangcheng. If costs rise, employee contributions will increase as well, and that could lead to dissatisfaction.
“The redness on your face has faded,” Serenity suddenly remarked, looking at Zhan Wei.
Zhan Wei touched the spot where Lan Ruoruo had slapped him and said, “That woman went crazy all of a sudden. She slapped me before I even knew what was happening. She did it on purpose.”
