Chapter 492: Unforgettable

The waiter gave them hot towels to wipe their faces and hands before leaving the room and closing the door. Xiaowen looked at Lu Yao with a smile and asked, "Mr. Lu, how many dishes did I order suit your taste?"

"I'm not a picky eater, I eat all kinds of food from all over the world. I think the food you ordered is very good, and it is exactly the dish I want to order. Lu Yao replied with a smile.

"But it's expensive, it's definitely more than the cost of this room, you don't think I'm killing you, do you?" asked Xiaowen with a grin.

"How so, as long as you're happy, let me treat you to whatever you want. Besides, it's not easy to treat you to a meal now, it will take you a plane back for a hundred or twenty hours, right?" Lu Yao asked with a smile.

"That's right, you only invited me to a meal in three or four years, and I have to travel across the ocean and come back thousands of miles, so I can't eat too much. Besides, you're now a billionaire, so it's not a matter of inviting me to a meal. Xiaowen paused here when she said this, she thought for a moment and then said: "Originally, I planned to talk to you about something else before the meal, since I ordered so many precious seafood, let's talk after eating." Do you have anything important to do in the afternoon?" Xiaowen asked.

"I have already arranged for General Manager Wang Chengjie to be in charge of handling it, and I will have a meeting with them in the evening. Lu Yao said.

"In other words, you have arranged all the time for me this afternoon?" Xiaowen asked with a smile.

"Yes, except that I can't send you back to Yunhai City, I will send you wherever you go to Nanguang City. Lu Yao replied with a smile.

"That's fine, don't worry, I won't delay you for an afternoon. You are now the big boss of everything you do, and in a popular saying: time is money. You're making money every second, and if I waste your time, it's a crime to delay you making money, right?" Xiaowen asked with a smile flashing a pair of big eyes.

"It's serious, to be honest, I don't take money that seriously. Of course, we are businessmen, and we must make money for the survival and development of the company. But I would rather have a stable and meaningful job, preferably useful to society, not just to make money. Lu Yao said.

"I believe you are telling the truth, in fact, those who make a lot of money, who didn't think like you at the beginning? They are all single-minded and persistent, so that the business is bigger and bigger, and the money is more and more. When money accumulates to a certain extent, they have no concept of money, and they only look at a few sets of constantly changing numbers every day. Xiaowen said.

"You have a lot of truth in what you say, but I haven't cared about money or numbers since I started my business. Sometimes I really wonder if I'm suitable for business?" Lu Yao smiled.

"If none of you are fit for business, there is no one in this world for business. In my opinion, and even to many people who know you well, you are a genius in business. If you look back, you started from joining Liu Jing and fake Liang Hongkai's noodle restaurant, and until now, it has only been more than three years, how many people can do it? Even the richest man in Asia, Li Chaoren can't do it. You're young and you've already created a business miracle. Xiaowen said.

"To be honest, I really think back to the path I've traveled. I can't believe that I can get to where I am today. After careful analysis, I fully understood that in fact, it was not that I had much ability, and I was not a genius, it was just my luck.

When I was working as a security guard in a toy factory, I met you and Liu Jing, and that fake Liang Hong. It is your trust in me and your full support that I have successfully embarked on the road of entrepreneurship and made certain achievements. Everything that followed was given to me by my eldest sister and uncle, who gave me the stage and wrote the script, so that I could act according to the plot until today. I now know very well that none of this is my own, it's all about all the people who have always supported me, including you. Lu Yao said solemnly.

"It's rare that your mind can still stay clear, as long as you keep your head clear, I believe you can go further and create greater results. In time, it is not impossible for you to become the richest man in the mainland, or even surpass Li Chaoren. Xiaowen said with a smile.

"Thank you for your encouragement, I will always work hard, but I will not set any superman and the richest man as my goal to catch up, I just want to do everything well with my feet on the ground. Also, I'm not the same as the rich guys. The fundamental purpose of their business is to accumulate the numbers of wealth, and to maximize the numbers as much as possible, and what they do is addition. And I'm doing subtraction all the time in addition to addition. Lu Yao said.

"You mean subtraction, right?" Xiaowen asked.

Lu Yao nodded and said: "You know, I was born poor, and my experience of hunger and cold and lack of way to study is unforgettable. When I was young, I prayed every day that I would have a full meal, a leather jacket to wear to protect me from the cold, and a school to admit me. Even before I came to Yunhai City, I was suffering from hunger and cold. Whenever my stomach growls with hunger, my mind is fantasizing that I must make a lot of money in the future, that I will have to eat a full meal, that I will have big fish and meat to eat every meal, and that I will not only eat well for myself, but also for everyone around me to eat well.

Now that I have done it, I can eat well every day, the people around me will not go hungry and cold, and my younger siblings will be able to go to school with peace of mind. But as soon as I left this place and went outside, I saw that there were many people who were suffering from hunger and cold, just like I had a few years ago, and that many children were still unable to study, and I felt like I was back in the old days.

Xiaowen, you were born in a family with no worries about food and clothing, you have never experienced the taste of hunger and cold, and you have never even seen those people. If one day, you can see them in their sad and helpless eyes, and your heart will definitely be pierced by their eyes, and you will involuntarily want to help them. Lu Yao said excitedly. His voice was choked and his eyes were filled with tears.

At this time, the waiter came in with food and interrupted the conversation between them.

After the waiter set up the dishes, Lu Yao smiled and asked, "Xiaowen, have a drink, I'll pick up the wind and wash the dust for you at noon today." ”。

"Well, there are so many delicacies, how can you be without good wine? Oh, you don't drink, and you have to have a meeting in the evening, so forget it. Xiaowen said.

"I drink, and I'm not a small drinker, it's just that I don't usually drink. On this special day at noon, I will accompany you for two drinks. Lu Yao said.
