Chapter 15: A Different Kind of Life
Counting the days, Zhang Yunfeng has been in Jiangchuan for two years.
Although he has become an older bachelor, for him, from the hesitation and confusion when he first came, and the dazzle of the city's scene, to the fact that he has now completely integrated into the life of the city, the past two years are like an incomparably beautiful dream.
Nowadays, the situation of Lao Zhang's family no longer needs him to take care of it, and the days of eating the last meal and the next meal seem to have become a matter of the last century. As a family, each of them has their own new pursuits and dignity as a human being.
Father Zhang Laohan continued to work as a material manager in Yunxi Village Cooperative, working steadfastly, life is leisurely, mother guards the Zhang Jiqi Fengdu fish meal shop in the city No. 1 Middle School, the dedication is a step a day, the business is prosperous, as the first Zhang Jiqi Fengdu fish meal shop in Jiangchuan City, the city No. 1 middle school store has also become the first choice for breakfast for many students.
His younger siblings made him even prouder.
Although Xiaoxiao is a little naughty, it is really an intimate padded jacket.
Qiulan is now the general manager of Liansheng's marketing department, controlling the marketing of Longjingyuan and the market expansion of six regions across the country, with hundreds of employees under her hands.
Not long ago, Liansheng held a huge folk cooking competition in Lijin City, the provincial capital, Zhang Yunfeng was on the evening news on Lijin TV, and saw Qiulan talking in front of reporters as the general director, and he was really emotional. Two years ago, this eldest sister followed Yunqi from being a peddler, all the way to today, it is not easy, just a few days ago, Qiulan also asked him to go to Shonan University to sign up, to be a correspondence night student of the Department of Economics, saying that it would be beneficial to learn more about business management.
The second sister of the family, Chunlan, is sixteen years old, tearing open her body, as dignified and slender as a little poplar, and the increasingly wealthy living conditions of the family also make her more and more beautiful and clean, and she knows that she can stand out as a beautiful girl at a glance.
What makes the whole family even more proud and proud is that this girl doll worked hard to get from the mountains to the best middle school in the city with her hard skills, although there were no learning conditions for children in the city before, and there were hard injuries in some knowledge, such as English, at that time, rural children at that time did not have good conditions to study, as far as he knew, Chunlan used to go to school in Longwan Town, and the English class was still their math teacher, and this teacher was simply a half-baked level, but even so, after coming to the city No. 1 Middle School, she could still get the first grade in the exam。
How difficult it is.
Back then, he ran home from school at the age of 13 to work, just to provide for his younger siblings to go to school with his father and fight for the old Zhang family, and the younger siblings have never disgraced the family.
Needless to say, Yunqi has a far-reaching vision and ability, and some ideas and practices cannot be understood. In fact, Zhang Yunfeng has already seen that his younger brother's mind is not in catering, and he started this Zhang Jiqi Fengdu fish powder shop just to let his brother, who has little ability, have a career to settle down, and what makes him feel relieved in his heart is that Yunqi has never forgotten where he came from, and has not forgotten the poor people in his hometown.
Of course, Zhang Yunfeng also put his enthusiasm into his own business, and every day he thinks about how to run Zhang Jiqi Fengdu Fish Meal Shop well.
After two years of hard work, he has gradually opened Zhang Jiqi Fengdu fishmeal shop to 5, Ximen Street store, Yuxian Street store, City No. 1 Middle School store, City No. 2 Middle School store, City No. 6 Middle School store.
Don't talk about the market, the business is very good, this does not dare to boast about how good their business mind is, the main thing is that the fish powder is really the favorite of Jiangchuan people, choose the right direction, and have the first opportunity, the road is bright and easy to go, and Zhang Ji has undoubtedly established a good reputation in the hearts of Jiangchuan citizens.
With this career, Zhang Yunfeng is actually very satisfied in his heart, but Yunqi always says that this is a small fight. He also said that it is necessary to build catering companies, improve scale, standards, and systems, and engage in direct chain and franchise chains.
Zhang Yunfeng didn't understand much.
Zhang Yunqi knocked on the melon seeds and said: "Think about it, although there are five stores now, but these five stores are operated separately, except that the decoration and signboard are the same, there is no unified training for employees, there is no unified concept of management, there is no unified standard for service, they are all independent operations, don't you be particularly tired as a boss? ”
Zhang Yunqi said: "If we can set up a company, we can connect these stores in series, focus on planning and organizing the marketing network, take the franchise and direct sales model, use synergies, so that our capital turnover can be accelerated, and the bargaining power of franchisees will be strengthened, and the logistics will be comprehensive, so as to achieve economies of scale and promote Zhang Ji to the whole country." At that time, what is the point of 5 franchisees? What we want is 500 franchise stores all over the country. ”
Zhang Yunfeng was stimulated by Yun Qi's words and was restless.
Since then, a new kind of ambition has risen in his heart. He felt that he had been too poor in the past, and that he was a little satisfied once his life improved. Now it seems that he should be free to develop his own business.
The first thing to do is to raise a new company.
According to Yunqi's assumption, in addition to the existing assets of the five Zhang Jiqi Fengdu fishmeal shops, another 500,000 yuan will be injected into the operation of the company, and the dividend will be increased by 21 to 5, and the brothers will be half each. Zhang Yunfeng didn't agree, although Yunqi didn't have time to manage, but the money to open the fishmeal shop was all paid by him, and without Yunqi, Zhang Ji's brand couldn't be done, and he had to let his younger brother take the lion's lead.
Of course, there is a higher pursuit in his career, Zhang Yunfeng, an "older" young man who is about to turn 25 years old, has reached the age of the mountain, and emotionally he is forced by the second elder of the family to be unable and dare not slack off.
Since the beginning of the year, Zhang Guorui, the party secretary of Yunxi Village, has not interfered in the affairs of him and Xiaonan.
Zhang Yunfeng vaguely guessed that it was his younger brother Yunqi who was working hard behind his back, at first, he felt uncomfortable, and felt that Zhang Guorui was a powerful person! But after thinking about it, he was a little frustrated, what right did he have to blame Zhang Guorui?
If it weren't for the green smoke coming from the ancestral tomb and the emergence of a capable figure in the family, how could Zhang Guorui look down on him in the tattered mess of his family, and why would he marry his precious daughter to him?
Although since the founding of New China, the country has vigorously advocated the freedom of love and the elimination of feudal thinking, but since this old tradition that has been passed down for thousands of years can exist, there is its reasonableness, and there is nothing wrong with an old father who wants his daughter to live well.
Of course, without Zhang Guorui's threshold, he and Zhang Xiaonan no longer have to worry about gains and losses. In addition to attending classes at school, she will go to his store to help the rest of the time, Zhang Xiaonan used to eat in the school cafeteria, and now, at night, he goes home to eat with him, originally from a village, the relationship was good before, Xiaonan is very affectionate to the old and young in the family, and calls the old man sweetly, as soon as she has time on the weekend, she will give Chunlan and Xiaoxiao tutoring homework, and several younger brothers and sisters call her the nominal sister-in-law.
During that time, Zhang Yunfeng was happy, he felt that the whole world was smiling, and life became a different way, what it was like in a dream.
As the relationship between him and Zhang Xiaonan became more and more stable, the marriage of the two was naturally put on the agenda. This is already the biggest heart problem of the second elder of the Zhang family at the moment. In September, Zhang Guorui made a special trip to the city to discuss his marriage with Xiaonan with his parents.
Yunqi was also there that day.
Although he is still only a half-grown child, he has the right to speak in this family.
He and Zhang Xiaonan's marriage, Yunqi did not intervene.
The agreed result was a marriage on New Year's Day.
What made Zhang Yunfeng uncomfortable was that Yunqi proposed to split up.
