Making a Fortune with Food After Losing My Job

In 1990, Chen Ying took a job at a garment factory to earn money. After enduring multiple delayed paychecks, she left the factory and set up an oyster omelet stall at the mouth of an alley with her coworker Li Yan, just to make ends meet.

Later, Chen Ying decided to open a Fujian restaurant.

In the summer of 1994, the first neon sign went up in Shicuo:

"Southern Fujian Family Restaurant"

"Life is like the waves upon the sea, sometimes rising, sometimes falling" - "Love to Strive and You Will Win"

* A tale of starting a business in a bygone era, food, and the gentle warmth of everyday life

* One-on-one romance, first love for both, both sexually inexperienced / a sweet exterior hiding a sharp mind x a little ray of sunshine

* Business success against the odds + everyday life in a Southern Fujian family
