"Alright, since you're willing to go, then go with Grandpa!”
Ye Chen smiled. He could tell that his granddaughter was a very assertive and thoughtful girl.
Since that was the case, he would let his granddaughter know about some of his businesses in advance so that she could adapt to the identity of the third generation of the super rich in advance.
It was still necessary to meet the world's top financial giants.
······
After some preparation, Ye Chen and Ye Yan left.
"Grandpa, where are we going?"
Ye Yan asked curiously after getting into the taxi.
Hearing Ye Yan's address to Ye Chen, the taxi driver was slightly stunned and turned to look at Ye Chen.
Good heavens, aren't young people nowadays too good at playing?
Was it no longer popular for couples to call each other brother or sister?
Grandfather?
A girl of such age called a young man grandpa. This was even better than orthopedic surgery!
"To Ping An Hotel! This shop should still be open now!”
Ye Chen didn't care about the taxi driver's gaze.
With his state of mind, he no longer cared about the opinions of strangers.
Moreover, there would probably be more and more surprised gazes in the future.
Ping An Hotel?
Ye Yan and the taxi driver were stunned when they heard the name of the restaurant.
Ping An Hotel was not an unknown restaurant. In fact, it was the most famous restaurant in Shanghai.
As long as one lived in Shanghai, there was no one who didn't know about this restaurant.
Ping An Restaurant was famous not because of its dishes.
It was because of the power behind it.
The Ping An Hotel had been established in the 1910s. It had experienced a hundred years of vicissitudes.
However, it still stood tall in Shanghai.
The reason was because of the powerful capital behind him.
With the power of this capital, no invader would dare to be presumptuous in this restaurant, even during wartime.
It was also because of the existence of this power that even though the cannons outside were raging.
As long as you entered the door of Ping An Hotel, you would be able to get a moment of peace.
Now, Ping An Hotel had been around for a hundred years. Although the capital behind it had changed, it still existed.
Moreover, the capital behind Ping An Hotel had become even stronger.
Because of this, the dignity of this place was still not to be violated by anyone.
Those who could go here were all high-end people in society.
For ordinary people, it was an inexplicable honor to have a meal at Ping An Hotel, even if it was in the main hall.
Ordinary people like Ye Yan and the taxi driver probably wouldn't even be able to walk through the door of Ping An Hotel in their lifetime.
Therefore, when they heard that Ye Chen was going to Ping An Hotel, the two of them were so surprised.
"Sir, are you sure you want to go to Ping An Hotel?”
The taxi driver asked carefully.
A person who could dine at Ping An Restaurant was not someone a small driver like him could offend.
However, he was a little puzzled. Why would such a big shot take a taxi when he went out?
"Yes! Just go there, you can drive in that direction!”
Ye Chen nodded.
Originally, he could have asked those three guys to send a car to pick him up, but he had just returned and did not know what their attitude was.
After being missing for forty years, no one could guarantee that his former subordinates would still be loyal to him.
"Good! Let's set off now!"
The chauffeur nodded and stepped on the accelerator, heading toward Ping An Hotel.
Although he was still cautious, he was not as surprised as before.
In his opinion, Ye Chen and the girl beside her were probably going there to play.
Ping An Hotel was a landmark building, and the address was easy to recognize.
Ye Yan had the same thought. In her eyes, her grandfather must be going to the nearby area, not really going to Ping An Hotel to meet someone.
······
Ye Yan's house was outside the Fifth Ring Road, while Ping An Hotel was on the First Ring Road.
The distance was not too far, but because of the traffic jam, the taxi took more than an hour to reach its destination.
"I didn't expect Shanghai's traffic to be so congested after 40 years!”
After getting out of the car, Ye Chen sighed.
Although Shanghai was also the economic center of the Dragon Country 40 years ago, there were definitely not so many cars on the road.
"That's right, Grandpa. Actually, it's much faster to take the subway than to take a taxi!”
Ye Yan whispered.
In the beginning, she had actually suggested that Grandpa take the subway.
Although the subway had to change trains, there was no traffic jam.
Including the transfer time, it was only half an hour.
Most importantly, it was cheap!
It was less than 20 yuan for the two of them to take the subway from their house to the subway station near Ping An Hotel.
However, as soon as she proposed this idea, she was rejected by Ye Chen.
"Yan, the first lesson I'm going to teach you is that you can't save money on small things!”
"Do whatever you feel comfortable doing!"
Although the subway was fast, it was not very comfortable.
Especially since the two of them looked young, they would probably have to give up their seats to the old, weak, sick, and pregnant.
Standing for half an hour or sitting for an hour was definitely more comfortable.
However, Ye Chen had already decided to move his family to the First Ring as soon as possible.
It was too inconvenient to be in the Fifth Ring Road.
······
"Grandpa, where are we going next?”
The two of them stood at the entrance of Ping An Hotel. Ye Yan subconsciously glanced at the restaurant's signboard.
As a person from Shanghai, he had naturally passed by this place countless times since he was young, but he had never entered.
"Hmm? Let's go in, they should be here already!”
Ye Chen pointed at the entrance of Ping An Hotel.
"What? Are we really going to eat here? I thought you were joking!"
Ye Yan looked at her grandpa in disbelief. She didn't expect her grandpa to be so serious.
He really wanted to bring her to Ping An Hotel.
"Hehe, isn't it just a restaurant? Let's go. Forty years ago, Grandpa came here often!”
"I wonder if the taste has changed after so many years!”
Ye Chen smiled as he dragged Ye Yan towards the entrance of the restaurant.
"Do you have an appointment?"
When they arrived at the door, a waiter in a tuxedo immediately greeted them.
"No! However, we are guests of the Heaven-class private room. They should have arrived by now!”
Ye Chen shook his head. He did not expect that after forty years, the rules of Ping An Hotel had increased a lot.
He actually had to make an appointment.
He didn't remember such a rule forty years ago.
Unfortunately, after 40 years, the waiters or managers at that time had probably changed.
The young man in front of him clearly did not know him.
However, he knew that those old fellows must have booked a private room and were waiting for him.
"A guest from the Heaven-class private room?"
The waiter was slightly stunned.
The Heaven-class private room was rarely used. He had been here for a few years.
But in his impression, this private room had never been used before.
It was as if the box had been waiting for its real owner to come.
