Chapter 346: Makings of A Conglomerate

The call was soon picked up, and Master Chef Ding’s voice was heard.

“Hey, Lil Bro Tang! Is there anything? I’m a little busy now!” Master Chef Ding shouted.

In the background, the sound of pots, bowls, and woks clanging could be heard. Evidently, the master chef was in the kitchen.

Tang Hao briefly explained the encounter with the Ling family earlier.

“F*ck their mother! This is ridiculous! They’re animals!” Master Chef Ding was furious in an instant. “If it’s not for you, Lil Bro Tang, then how could there be such amazing magical cuisine? Magical Kitchen won’t be as popular as it is now.

“The prescription is yours, and the menu is a joint effort between you and me. What did Tai An do? They opened a restaurant. Who the h.e.l.l doesn’t know how to open a restaurant?

“Now that the restaurant is popular, they’re going to burn bridges, and they want you to hand over your prescription too. How convenient!” Master Chef Ding scolded and cursed angrily.

In the background, the sounds of cooking slowly ceased when the other chefs heard him.

“What? Who’s burning bridges?”

The chefs crowded around Master Chef Ding and shouted.

“It’s Tai An. They want to remove Lil Bro Tang from the picture and want to steal his prescription!” Master Chef Ding said angrily.

“What the h.e.l.l? Are they even human?”

“Is this President Ling’s doing?”

The chefs started shouting and cursing loudly.

“Lil Bro Tang said that it’s not President Ling. It’s an internal decision by the Ling family. Don’t blame President Ling, she’s being put in a difficult spot too.

“The Ling family has appointed another person to handle Magical Kitchen. It’s President Ling’s brother. He’s at Westridge now and he had just left Lil Bro Tang’s office after threatening him.”

The chefs once again grew agitated and started shouting.

“What? He’s threatening Lil Bro Tang? Is the Ling family full of animals?”

“I’m not going to work here anymore! This p.i.s.ses me off!”

“This incident is very disturbing, Big Bro Ding. What is Lil Bro Tang saying? If he’s splitting up with Tai An, I’ll quit here and follow Lil Bro Tang.”

“Right! We’ll follow Lil Bro Tang! I’m not going to work for a bunch of animals!”

“Don’t be hasty, let me ask Lil Bro Tang,” Master Ding said, then returned to the call, “Do you hear that, Lil Bro Tang? Everyone is supporting you.”

“If that’s how the Ling family wants to play, then I’m not collaborating with them anymore. I plan to open my own restaurant, and I’ll be making preparations for that soon.”

“Alright, we’ll follow you!” Master Chef Ding said.

Then, he turned to shout at the chefs, “Alright, brothers, we quit!”

“Right, Master Chef, remember to bring the bronze jars along with you. There should be four of them left,” Tang Hao said.

Master Chef Ding was surprised. “Indeed, there’s only four left. Tai An took one of them away this morning.”

“Then bring the four with you. The bronze jars aren’t part of the contract. Tai An won’t be able to touch you,” Tang Hao said.

“Alright, let’s bring them all! Let’s go, brothers!” Master Chef Ding yelled again.

After the call ended, Tang Hao smirked coldly.

Without Master Chef Ding and the bronze jars, Magical Kitchen could not operate. That should take the wind out of the Ling family’s sails.

He thought for a while, then picked up his mobile phone and planned to give Old Master Luo a call.

However, the phone started ringing. It was from Old Master Luo.

“Hey, Grandmaster Tang, what the h.e.l.l is going on with your restaurant? Why are all the chefs leaving all of a sudden? The restaurant is a mess now! I want my Eight Treasure Soup!”

“I’ve parted ways with Tai An. I’m no longer in Magical Kitchen!” Tang Hao said.

“What? Wasn’t everything just fine? How could this be?”

“Tai An is too greedy. They want to take over my shares of the restaurant.”

“Are they out of their mind? How dare they cross you!” Old Master Luo could only find it ridiculous.

Grandmaster Tang had supernatural abilities. Furthermore, he was very closely connected to the He family and even brought down the previous province leader. The Ling family must have lost their minds to find trouble with him.

Then, he understood what happened. The Ling family must be unaware of Grandmaster Tang’s abilities. They could not withstand the allure of money and thought that Grandmaster Tang was a pushover.

“Hah, the Ling family is a bunch of idiots!” He mocked, but soon, he became worried. “Grandmaster Tang, if you and the chefs have left Magical Kitchen, where can I eat your food?”

After tasting magical cuisine, everything else was tasteless.

“You can go to Imperial Kitchen. Master Chef Ding and the other chefs will be operating from there in the meantime. I was just about to call you to ask you for help in looking for a suitable spot near Magical Kitchen for a new restaurant,” Tang Hao said.

“You want to start your own restaurant? Alright, I’ll survey a suitable spot for you. You should reopen soon. Otherwise, I won’t have a place to eat.”

After ending the call, Tang Hao brought Liu Yan and Han Yutong to Beyond Heavens Restaurant.

They waited a while before Liu Dajun and the others arrived one after another.

Secretary Qian as well as the newly installed District Mayor Liu arrived.

They exchanged some pleasantries and sat down around the table.

When everyone was there, Tang Hao stood up and briefly recounted the earlier incident.

Liu Dajun and the others immediately looked indignant.

“Because of that, I plan to expand the company as fast as possible in the short term. Haotian Co. Ltd. needs to grow in size, and Masculine Wind Co. Ltd. needs to pick up speed. After this, I also plan to start a liquor factory and a restaurant.

“The restaurant will specialize in magical cuisine. If the Ling family doesn’t want to collaborate with me, then I can start my own restaurant. As for the liquor factory, I’ll let you all taste my specially brewed liquor later.

“We do have the finances to expand rapidly, but we don’t have enough talent. That’s why I’m requesting you all to use your connections and recruit anyone capable that you know. I’ll hire anyone who has talent and capabilities. Masculine Wind needs more people, and the two new companies all need people.”

Everyone exclaimed in surprise after they heard that.

“Starting two companies at the same time? You’re putting everything in, Lil Tang]!” President Li exclaimed.

“I think that works. We need to be this fast to take over the market by storm. We’re not short on money. We can combine the four companies into one Haotian Group. Don’t you think that sounds so cool?” Liu Dajun said with a smile.

“Haotian Group? That’s great!” Secretary Qian laughed.

With more companies, the economy of the district would grow, and he, as the district secretary, was happy about that.

If a big group of companies was formed in Westridge during his term as the secretary, he would share the glory as well.

District Mayor Liu nodded. He had studied and researched Haotian Co. Ltd. before. Within months of operation, it had already recorded hundreds of millions in profits. Its growth was unmatched and showed no signs of stopping.

He also heard that Masculine Wind Co. Ltd. would be manufacturing male health products. The effects of the products are said to be amazing as well.

The restaurant would specialize in magical cuisine. He saw on the Internet that magical cuisine was incredibly popular.

If the three companies were already so amazing, then the liquor factory would not be any worse either. Haotian Group would be a formidable ent.i.ty in the business world once everything was put in place.
