Chapter 237 [Zhou Yi's Super Generous] (First Update)
Chapter 262 [Zhou Yi's Super Generous]
It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. (Read the novel to the leaves・Yo~Yo.YZuU.)
In the past, Zhou Yi himself was an otaku, so it would be good not to cause trouble to his family, and naturally he couldn't help his family. But now it's different, he has money, ability and connections, and Zhou Yi can see that this restaurant has a very heavy weight in the second sister's heart, so he made up his mind to help the second sister;
Jacqueline was lucky. Her loyalty won Zhou Yi's attention, and because of this, she was passed on the secret skill of 'egg fried rice', and was directly promoted to chef; Zhou Yi is not a substitute, he also has a say in the second sister's industry, not to mention that this industry will be carried forward with his strong assistance, and become a giant in the catering industry in Paris, appointing a chef is nothing at all.
What Zhou Yi asked Henry to do is actually very simple, that is, to contact a local headhunting company in Paris to find the best Chinese and Western chefs, the salary is not a problem, the key is to have good skills. There will be brave men under the great reward, he believes in this truth.
In fact, this kind of spending money is just a phone call, Zhou Yi deliberately let Henry handle it, in fact, it is to increase his 'sense of belonging'; after seeing his works that day, Zhou Yi felt that the biggest problem of his foreign brother-in-law was confusion.
From his works, it can be seen that his style is still wavering, sometimes realistic, sometimes abstract, so that if he can draw the doorway, there is a ghost, and from a psychological point of view, Henry is a manifestation of impetuousness. And for a married man, this is caused by his low sense of identification with the family.
In other words, Henry lacked a sense of responsibility for his family. Of course, gambling and drug abuse ~ will also make him exaggerated and become an unstable element, and Zhou Yi has already had a solution to this.
It seems unreliable to spend a lot of effort for a French old hairman, but Henry has a baby with his second sister after all. From the perspective of the Chinese people, as long as there is a possibility, Zhou Yi still wants to save him. And not abandon him.
Henry is doing a hot job of explaining things to Zhou Yi. [. Men like orders more than women like to 'shop' consumption, and when they hear the price he offers, the people in the headhunter company immediately frenzy. When he took a bite of Mr. Henry, Henry's satisfaction was raised, and he invisibly had an unprecedented identification with the restaurant, and before that, Zhou Jingjing had always disliked him to ask about things in the restaurant, because he would always make everything very bad.
Henry now feels that his brother-in-law is much better than his wife, at least Zhou Yiken trusts him, is this the mutual understanding between men?
In fact, he decisively thought too much
"Zhou, the headhunter has promised that within a month, they will help us dig the top Chinese and Western chefs. But the cost they want is not low. 200,000 francs per chef. ”
"200,000 is not much, talent is rare. But isn't it too much of an exaggeration for a headhunter, a top chef, including that Master Louis?"
Zhou Yi laughed. After coming to France, he had already heard the name of the master Louis more than once. This person seems to have a faint tendency to dominate the Parisian food industry, but I don't know what kind of person he is.
"Of course it can't be. Besides, Master Louis is willing to come, I'm afraid we can't afford to invite us."
Henry was taken aback, he really didn't know what this rich brother-in-law was thinking, and he even dared to fight Master Louie's idea?
"Okay, let's do it first. The restaurant does not need to open for half a month. Turning around and asking Jacqueline to post the notice, she said that our Chinese New Year has arrived, and we are going to close down, so let's hold back those diners who have read the Aimeri feature. When Jacqueline has mastered the egg fried rice and the staff is in place, it will not be too late to open again"...,
Glancing at Henry, Zhou Yi suddenly stretched: "It's the New Year, let's go Henry, let's go buy some New Year's goods." Oh, I almost forgot, it's the Internet era, what kind of New Year's goods can be ordered online, this is not in a hurry Second brother-in-law, why don't you take me to that place to see?"
"Which place, where is it?"
Henry was stunned for a moment, feeling that his brother-in-law's expression suddenly became very weird, and he suddenly became polite, and he called his second brother-in-law?
"Where else? Of course you're looking for fun."
Zhou Yi laughed hesitantly, just like an old prostitute~guest. (Read the novel to the leaves・Yo~Yo.YZuU.)
"Huh?"
Henry suddenly narrowed his eyes: "Zhou, I understand what you mean, well, you mean women? Oh, Liu just happened to be away, this is really a good opportunity." In this way, there are a few mannequins I am familiar with are very good, not only have good figures, but also are much cleaner than those prostitutes~ women in the red light district, but they are more expensive, but you are rich."
"Henry, you've gone too far. It seems that you often look for women behind my second sister's back, how can this be reasonable!"
"Oh, no, no, Zhou, you are completely misunderstood, they and I only have artistic exchanges, no dirty deals" Henry was stunned, and said to himself, so you are not here for this, so why are you so weird?
"I mean casinos. Hehe, I won't hide it from you, second brother-in-law, I don't have any other hobbies, I just like to gamble twice, and my gambling skills are superb, and I will win every time I gamble. It's good to relax and relax, but I'm not familiar with Paris, so you have to work hard to lead the way. ”
"Zhou, do you mean it really?"
Henry's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked Zhou Yi up and down, and the more he looked, the more he felt that this Huaxia brother-in-law was a cute guy who smelled like him: "Oh, Zhou, you won't be testing me for your sister, will you?"
After all, this product has nothing to do with artists, and he is not a complete idiot, and he has some doubts about Zhou Yi.
"Henry, you should trust me. You know that there are no casinos in China, but now that I have finally come to France, of course I want to see it. And we're all men. Isn't that right?"
"Yes, it's a secret among men!"
Being teased by Zhou Yi like this, Henry's heart seemed to have ants crawling, itching no, where would he think about it a lot? Suddenly he grinned and hooked Zhou Yi's shoulder: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go, brother-in-law will take you to the largest casino in Paris!"
If you're going to defeat the demons in your heart. You have to crush this demonic heart first, and then you can be reborn from the fire.
From the second sister and father, Zhou Yi has learned that Henry's gambling addiction is even bigger than drug ~ addiction. When he loses at the worst, he even attracts loan sharks to collect debts.
This is actually understandable. Those who engage in art are like gamblers, especially those who are depressed as Henry. It's basically a gamble in life, if you win, you can become famous, and if you lose, you will always be a 'future artist' who has achieved nothing, and no one will treat him as a dish except for himself.
In fact, Henry is very pitiful, maybe his nature is not like this, but he can't become famous in his thirties, and the huge pressure forces him to find a way to vent. Just like other 'future artists', some like women, some like alcohol stimulation, some take ~ drugs to death, and he is addicted to gambling and can't extricate himself.
To save Henry, he must first despair of gambling. It's not a small project. The best psychiatrists can't do it, but Zhou Yi can lift weights like light.
"Is it Brother Liu? I'm Zhou Yi"
Sitting on Henry's sign 409, Zhou Yi first dialed Liu Ke's phone: "Yes, I'm in France, give Brother Liu a visit to your early years." Oh, yes. I need a lot of money, can you use my share of the gambling stone profits first?"...,
When they were gambling on stones in Tengchong, Liu Ke and Zhang Zhao promised that if Zhou Yi helped them choose a stone, as long as it was green, they would give Zhou Yi 30% of the profit. Zhou Yi couldn't use any big money before, so he never asked for it. Now he is going to take Henry on a 'roller coaster', but it will cost a lot of money to have a good time.
"Hehe, what's the matter, brother, didn't you go to France to visit relatives? Why do you want so much money?"
Liu Ke didn't ask this because he was worried about money, but because he cared about Zhou Yi.
"I won't talk about it on the phone. I don't want to go to the casino to have fun? I don't want to play, how about playing if I want to play, Brother Liu, are you having trouble with funds?"
Zhou Yi is not easy to elaborate, although he is 'curing diseases and saving people', but after all, it is also a trick, it looks good or not.
"I see, I don't know which casino is going to be unlucky again, haha. has become an old brother, if you don't talk about the old brother, I won't ask in detail. Let's put it this way, it's still your eye poison, the stones you bought from Tengchong have risen ninety percent, just the profits that should be given to your brother are more than 500 million, and I will give you 3 billion first, is it enough?"
"Three billion RMB?"
Zhou Yiyi frowned, this money is still less, I am afraid that I will waste more time to implement my plan, this is almost the New Year, and I can't afford to delay.
"What? Isn't three billion enough? I said brother, just play a few games, don't you play with your heartbeat?" As soon as Zhou Yi was silent, Liu Ke's heart twitched.
"Brother Liu, I still have hundreds of millions in my account, but if I want to have a good time, this amount of money is really not enough. ”
Zhou Yi said with a smile: "There are at least two billion funds left. In this way, if Brother Liu, if you are not at ease, I will use the thirty percent of the shares that Mr. Li gave me as collateral, which can be regarded as borrowing from you."
"Brother, I'm going to be angry when you say that, brother?"
Liu Ke said angrily: "Two billion is a fart, is it enough for our brother's friendship, and you still want you to take the share mortgage? You are scolding me! In this way, I can still withdraw more than a billion yuan in my hand, and I will go back and let Lao Zhang come out with some more, and it is no problem to make up enough five billion yuan for you! Brother, you must not lose one in a hundred, what am I afraid of? I am afraid that you will play too much, don't cause any more trouble, France is not our territory after all, brother, I am worried about your safety." ”
