Even with Tong Xue's reminder, Yao Jing still didn't lose Zhou An's temper this time.

The title of "Sister Yao" no longer seems to be her reverse scale.

She only glanced at Zhou An, and pouted in warning: "Pay attention in the future! If you shout again, I really turned my face with you, and today for everyone's sake, I will spare you again for the time being." ”

Zhou An expressed his gratitude.

……

After more than an hour, full of wine and food, Zhou An routinely sent them downstairs and out, watched them get into the car, and then watched their car go away.

He took out his cigarette case, touched the cigarette and lit it, and just stood on the side of the road and smoked thoughtfully.

In fact, he just looked thoughtful, but in fact he didn't think about anything, he just wanted to smoke a cigarette outside the store and take a breath.

Halfway through a cigarette, Qu Yanyang appeared from behind him, walked to his right hand and stood still, looked at his expression curiously, and asked, "What are you thinking?"

Zhou An's gaze moved for a long time, turned his face to look at her, and said with a smile: "Of course I'm thinking about you!"

"Shh

Qu Yanyang rolled her eyes, and then said with a smile: "Business in the store has been good recently, congratulations!"

Zhou An smiled.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Qu Yanyang's eyes rolled, and the topic changed, "Hey, by the way, do you really want to partner with them to acquire Zhuang Weiyuan?"

"What's there you can't take care of? Zhuang Weiyuan is so close to us. ”

Zhou An replied casually.

Qu Yanyang frowned and shook his head: "No matter how close it is to us, it is another store after all, you still have an old store in Yinma County, you are still preparing another branch in Longma Lane, and now you are going to acquire Zhuangweiyuan, Anzi, you are just one person after all, do you really have so much energy?"

Zhou Anwan'er spit out a puff of smoke and asked lightly: "Have you heard the story of Han Xin's soldiers?"

Without waiting for Qu Yanyang, who frowned, to answer, he gave the answer: "The story of Han Xin's soldiers tells us that it is actually very simple to lead thousands of troops and horses, you don't need to personally manage every soldier under you, as a general, you only need to make good use of those generals under you!"

Qu Yanyang was stunned for a moment before he realized what he wanted to express.

So she looked at Zhou An with a little more admiration in her eyes, and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean...... Can you just send a head chef over there?"

Without waiting for Zhou An to answer, she asked a question, "But do you still have a suitable chef candidate at hand now?" Chen Fayin is doing a good job in the old shop, if you transfer him, what will happen to the old shop?"

Zhang Honglin has just entered the state on this side of the branch, if you transfer him to Zhuangweiyuan now, who are you going to hand over to our branch? Tan Guang? But didn't you say before that you planned to send Tan Guang to the branch in Longma Lane? So if you transfer Zhang Honglin to Zhuangweiyuan and let Tan Guang be the head chef of the current branch, what will you do in the branch in Longma Lane? Anzi, I'll help you do the math, you still seem to lack a head chef candidate!"

Qu Yanyang was very worried.

Zhou An smiled, "Take your time! I will temporarily top the top of Zhuang Weiyuan, and then I will talk about it when I find a suitable candidate." ”

Compared with Qu Yanyang's worries, he didn't seem to care very much, and this was the confidence that he could stand up.

Lacking a head chef, he went to top it for the time being, and it was no problem at all.

……

Two days later in the afternoon.

Zhou An returned to Yinma County, and naturally Liang Yu was driving.

The reason why I came back, there is no special reason, one is to come back to settle the account, the business of the old store has been very stable, recently as the temperature rises, the business of the old store is getting better and better, and the revenue of the store is naturally improving, Zhou An has recently come back to collect the account almost once a week.

Every time I come back, it's tens of thousands.

In the first two months, when the business was sluggish, he could collect about 30,000 or 40,000 yuan a week, and he had 145,000 yuan a month.

Of course, these include various costs, not his net profit, excluding various costs, his monthly profit is less than half.

But even so, it was a considerable amount of income, after all, the old store basically didn't need him to worry much about it now.

The second is ...... There are several payments to be paid to suppliers, promising good things, there is no special reason, Zhou An is unwilling to break his trust.

For him, doing business is about integrity.

Integrity to customers, integrity to employees, and integrity to suppliers of all sizes.

These three links, no matter which one of them collapses, will not do his business any good.

There is a third reason...... Today is the day when the old store pays its salary.

Although Zhou An doesn't care much about the affairs of the old store now, the kitchen piece is handed over to Chen Fayin, and the front hall is handed over to his cousin Xia Wenjing, but he still insists on paying wages by himself, never pretending to others, and never being troublesome.

Because although he doesn't read much, there is a truth he understands.

That's – grace comes from above.

It was also heard from the owner of a hotel where he worked in his previous life, and the boss just said it casually, and he may not have been distracted.

But Zhou An remembered these four words, and after getting off work, he deliberately used his mobile phone to check the specific meaning of these four words.

Then it was found that this was a very important means for the superior to control the people below in ancient times.

For example, the emperor's control over the courtiers and the army, one of the most important points is the promotion and promotion of officials and generals, as well as salaries and silver, all in the hands of the emperor.

Even if it is the appointment and dismissal power of a Jiupin sesame official, it must be in your own hands.

Every penny of the soldier's salary was also paid in the name of the imperial court.

There is only one purpose...... Let the officers and generals below understand who gave them their future and salary, and let the people below understand who is the object of their allegiance.

Through this means, it is possible to avoid the birth of some powerful ministers, and it can also prevent some armies from being turned into their own private armies by the generals who command the army.

The emperor of Shengming can do this very well, and if the emperor does not do this well, he will often become the king of the country.

Zhou An's current small career is naturally not comparable to the emperor's world, but as far as he is concerned, he now has more and more branches in his hands, and he is no longer able to supervise many things one by one, so he gradually began to use some necessary small means.

Like paychecks, he likes to do it himself.

Of course, in addition to the above three reasons, when he came back this time, he also wanted to go home by the way.

Look at Mom and Dad.

The first three things, he did very well, there is nothing to say.

Fourth......

Going home to see his parents is actually quite smooth, nothing more than buying some food and clothing to take back, and when he comes home, he will say something happy to make his parents happy, and by the way, ask them about their recent physical condition, which is the routine of every time he comes back recently.

As a result, the problem lies with this matter of practice.
