Chapter 24: Spring Festival
This is a unique tea party, everyone can speak freely, every question, Zhao Yu personally answered, after more than two hours, everyone's questions were asked, and the wine was almost drunk.
In the end, Zhao Yu ordered someone to send a piece of paper and a pen to each person, asking everyone to leave basic information, including academic qualifications, specialties and opinions. Then tell everyone that tomorrow night there will be a banquet in the Red Pavilion, the first big dinner, and tonight is the end of it.
Red Tassel and Ruthless also left, they were already ordinary people.
Zhao Yu still left five people, this is the person he screened out according to the information just now, the Four Dao Society has just been established, there is nothing, he needs to cultivate some people, these five people are the first batch of key objects he wants to cultivate.
"Our Four Dao Societies have been established, but there is still the Blue Dragon Gang in Belvedere, and we have to guard against it, so the Four Dao Societies will first set up two halls, one Golden Dragon Hall and one Wolf Warrior Hall. β
Zhao Yu looked at a featureless middle-aged man: "Li Qing, you are temporarily acting as the deputy hall master of the Golden Dragon Hall, select ten people from these people, and completely decorate this place, I only have one requirement to be high-end and high-grade." Questions?"
Li Qing didn't expect that he would become a deputy hall master, but he was not too happy, but after thinking about it, he asked: "President, this is a huge amount of money, and the business losses caused during the renovation period will not be less." Is it really necessary?"
"It's necessary, we're going to start from scratch. In this way, you first contact some decoration companies, let them come up with a few plans and budgets, and we will choose one later, and re-order a plaque, which will be called Night Road in the future. β
"The four of you, for the time being, belong to the Wolf Warrior Hall, and you will start training with me in the original underground boxing gym from tomorrow, and whether you can take charge of yourself in the future depends on your training results. β
Su Jun, Jiang Tao, Fang Qin, and Miao Dashan were ecstatic, who didn't want to be a good martial artist, they had seen Zhao Yu's skills, and they could get the special training of the president, they couldn't ask for it.
After a few people left, Zhao Yu was left alone in the huge bar, he smoked a cigarette and looked at every corner of the place, like a miser, admiring his own territory.
The next night, Zhao Yu hosted a banquet for all the brothers in the Red Pavilion, and paid everyone the first month's salary, so that everyone could go home early for the New Year.
Zhao Yu is not afraid of the Blue Dragon Gang, if he dares to attack, he will destroy Lei Zhentian.
Zhao Yu and each of the brothers drank a glass of wine, and then broke it. When I woke up, it was already noon the next day, and I found that I had slept in the Red Pavilion for another night.
"Squeak", the door opened, and a figure came in, wearing a long skirt, and plum blossoms adorned it, like peach blossoms. When Zhao Yu saw it clearly, he was really taken aback: "Sister Hong, you... You..."
"What's wrong? You don't know me. Sister Hong is still a little shy when she speaks, is this still the same as the previous Sister Hong?
When he came to Hongying's office, Ruthless was drinking tea while seeing him come in: "Zhao Yu, come, how about tasting my tea art?"
Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, sat down and asked, "Are you two okay, one is dressed like a flower girl, and the other is talking." β
"Who do you say is the flower girl?" Hongying threw over a pen, and Zhao Yu dodged over.
"The two of us, now we are no longer people on the road, as ordinary people, we should look like ordinary people, what do you say?" ruthlessly said the longest sentence ever. was shocked that Zhao Yu was scorched on the outside and tender on the inside.
Zhao Yu picked up the phone and was about to call Li Qing, but the phone rang at this time: "Hall Master Li, I was just about to look for you, you can come to the Red Pavilion." β
Half an hour later, Li Qing came, and Zhao Yu asked him to buy last night's order first. Then looked at the renderings that Li Qing took from several decoration companies: "Why is it so fast?"
"They all know what I used to do, and besides, this is a big business, who doesn't want to get it, so they rushed to work as soon as possible, of course, this is only the first draft, and the president will see which one is better?" Li Qing said.
"This one is good-looking, but it's not heroic enough, we want a faΓ§ade that can reflect our strong capital, so this can't work. Zhao Yu said while watching, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at a picture of praise.
Ruthless and Hongying both said that it was good, so it was decided, Zhao Yu asked Li Qing to hurry up and arrange, start construction earlier, open earlier, and lose a little less money.
Since Zhao Yu took over the property of the White Tiger Gang, after dismissal, dinner, and everyone's first month's salary, such a toss, the liquidity has long been insufficient, fortunately, there are five million given by Sun Quan, and now there are more than two million left, which is not enough for the decoration money just now, so Zhao Yu was melancholy, so poor.
After saying goodbye to Hongying, Zhao Yu came to Sun's villa, but did not come in the morning because he was drunk. After seeing Sun Yuanqing, he chatted with Sun Quan for a while as usual, and borrowed five million by the way, saying that he would repay it in three months, and the interest would be calculated according to the market price.
In the underground boxing gym, Zhao Yu and the Soviet army are in full swing with four to four, Zhao Yu is fighting with beasts in the mountains to learn by himself, without systematic and scientific training, so he will not have a stage of step-by-step training, what he can do is to give them the environment of actual combat, so that they can improve themselves in actual combat.
After a fight, the four of them were tired and panting like cattle, but Zhao Yu was only sweating slightly.
"President, your skills are absolutely invincible in Belvedere, why did you suddenly come out?" Jiang Tao and Zhao Yu After many battles, they also figured out Zhao Yu's temperament.
"When I had no one at home, I came out of the mountains to see, and it was the closest to Belvedere, so I came. β
"Then who taught you this martial art, your master must be very powerful," Fang Qin asked.
"Haha, my master was killed and eaten by me!" Zhao Yu said jokingly. Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, the four of them retreated together, as vigilant as if they were looking at aliens.
"I said you were too cowardly. I taught myself how to fight wild beasts in the mountains, so they are my masters, do you understand? I really think that I eat people, and I can't eat you guys with rough skin and thick meat," Zhao Yu said dissatisfied.
For the next period of time, Zhao Yu did the same thing every day, talking to Sun Yuanqing in the morning, then going to the boxing gym to practice with the four, and then going to the night road to see the progress of the renovation after the end. Not to mention, spending money is different, dozens of workers start work at the same time, it's really the same every day.
Zhao Yu has been paying attention to the progress of Sun Yuanqing's case, but today, half a month has passed, but there has been no progress. Even Ye Cheng looked for him and learned some details again so that he could make progress, but the result was still unsatisfactory.
In the blink of an eye, it was the thirtieth day of the lunar month, that is, Chinese New Year's Eve. This is Zhao Yu's first New Year away from Dashan. He wanted to cook a table of food at home according to the custom of his hometown, drink some wine with Song Wen and chat, but Sun Quan asked him to celebrate the New Year together.
Catching up with the sunset, Zhao Yu and Song Wen came to the human garden, the two of them held some beer, walking in the picturesque villa area, Zhao Yu sighed that he could often come and go in such a place, he had never dared to think before.
But Song Wen didn't feel much, just walked quietly, Zhao Yu thought that he was a technical otaku, and he probably didn't have much interest in these. It wasn't until many years later that he knew that Song Wen's calm many times was not uninterested, but habitual.
"Xiao Zhao, Xiao Song is here, hurry in. Why do you still bring wine, do I only have tea here?" Sun Quan said with a smile.
"Hello Uncle Sun, the first time you come to the door, you can't be empty-handed, just take something casually, don't dislike it. Song Wen said politely.
"Song Wen, what you said is very level, why haven't I found out for so long" Zhao Yu was surprised.
"Ah, yes, it's the first time I've visited Uncle Sun, so I'm probably nervous," Song Wen hurriedly said. It's just that he thought in his heart: Maybe it was the touch of the scene that made him reveal his true feelings for a while.
The three of them sat down on the sofa, Sun Quan began to fiddle with his tea set, and Song Wen stepped forward and said, "Uncle, I'll come."
"Okay, you are much stronger than Zhao Yu, every time he comes, I make him tea, hum!" Sun Quan said dissatisfiedly, seeing Song Wenxing's smooth movements, Sun Quan was a little surprised, but he didn't show it.
You drink slowly, I'll cook, Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, to eat hearty. After speaking, Zhao Yu went to the kitchen. The refrigerator is already full of ingredients, enough to eat for a few days.
Ping Pong, soon the meal was ready, the three of them moved to the living room, Sun Quan asked Zhao Yu to go up and call his aunt to come down and eat together. Because Sun Yuanqing's situation is special, and he doesn't have a woman in his own family, his aunt can't leave for the New Year.
At the dinner table, even the aunt who often cooks praised Zhao Yu's good craftsmanship, and it was a pity not to open a restaurant. Sun Quan joked that he was a person who did big things, so how could he be a cook.
"Xiao Zhao, how are you doing over there now?" Sun Quan said about the matter of the Four Dao Society.
"Now the place is being renovated, everything else is suspended, people are on holiday, and it is estimated that it will be able to open after the year. After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he sighed again: "It's just that there is a shortage of talents, you also know those people, according to our plan, many places are not needed." β
Speaking of this, Zhao Yu was anxious, and now he really understands the importance of talents. If you want to develop talents in the White Dao, even the finances of the Four Dao Societies are managed by Li Qing alone, and there is no finance.
"It's easy to do, you can recruit. You haven't changed yet, and you are still the same gang as before? You can't do this, you don't agree with your own group from the heart, and how dare others agree with it."
Sun Quan's words were like an initiation, which made Zhao Yu feel good, and he picked up a can of beer to salute Sun Quan, and Sun Quan was also happy and drank half of it. In previous years, there were only two people at home, but tonight, although Yuan Qing couldn't serve the table, there were many people and it was lively.
