I Just Broke Even on My Shop, and Now the Landlord Wants to Raise the Rent Tenfold

Cheng Yi takes over a restaurant drowning in debt and on the verge of closing down.

He revamps its business strategy and keeps developing new dishes.

The restaurant finally bounces back, drawing crowds of customers.

Food bloggers, livestreaming food reviewers, and celebrities from all walks of life flock there, making it an online sensation:

A simple plate of fried noodles has customers lining up for half a kilometer!

Then the greedy landlord makes his move.

He demands ten times the rent.

He wants to drive Cheng Yi out, take over the business, and run it himself.

Cheng Yi: "The tragedy for most people in this world is that their greed far exceeds their ability. They always think, 'If someone else can do it, so can I.'"
