Chapter 37: Parents (1)
Ah Le went to country W to participate in the barbecue competition of the International Food Festival and returned with honors. This is a big news in the small town, and through the popularity of Guò Po City's daily network, Ah Le and his green barbecue have repeatedly increased their popularity among the people, and they have also been recognized by the government.
People take food as the sky, and eating is the first priority. The restaurant industry directly faces the consumer, so cooking is not a pure work of art, but only recognized by the people is the most important thing.
A chef is popular only when he is recognized by the people. More popularity brings fame, and more fame is a celebrity chef.
Relying on Ah Le and his green barbecue brand, the people of Pocheng have concentrated their efforts on creating the first burning of the world's dome in the Pocheng barbecue concentration camp.
What the rivers and lakes like to advertise the first thing the most. In addition, the Sichuan dialect is often indistinguishable, and there are many people who say that there are many people, so many friends are very reverie, and Pocheng is a city of beautiful women like clouds. How sassy is the first saucy in the world's dome? Therefore, in order to find out the problem of the first burning or the first commotion, the people who come here make a special trip from far away, first, to travel, second, to taste food, and third, to appreciate beautiful women. There is even such a saying in the folk that if you come to Shunan and don't go to Pocheng, it is equivalent to coming to Shunan in vain; if you don't eat barbecue in Pocheng, it is equivalent to coming to Pocheng in vain; if you don't see the beauties in Pocheng after eating barbecue, it is equivalent to eating a barbecue in vain.
The implication is that the beauties of Pocheng are so delicious. Look at the beauties, please come to the river!
The Legend of the Rivers and Lakes is the most affordable and effective advertisement. Pocheng Barbecue is famous for its international awards and numerous folklore and rumors.
As a result, Ah Le and his peers' business has become more and more prosperous. There is an endless stream of people who come to eat barbecue and drink night beer. The People's Government of Pocheng City carefully packaged barbecue as a representative of the tertiary industry and publicized it at a variety of investment promotion meetings and tourism product recommendation meetings.
Barbecue work has changed from a subsistence occupation for laid-off workers to a fashionable occupation, and some people have even advocated on the Internet to establish a barbecue vocational training course in Pocheng...... Train a team of professional barbecue talents.
People are very realistic, seeing that they can earn money by doing barbecue work, and some parents also hope that their children can make a living as soon as possible to reduce the burden on the family. Some children are about to graduate from high school, and they are brought by their parents to ask them to learn art: "Master A Le, we are from a rural family, and our family is in financial difficulty...... My wife is old and sick, and she can't afford to study...... You can just take my child as an apprentice, right?"
Ah Le saw the old man's sick and crooked appearance, and his compassion suddenly rose, and if his wife was also sick, the family's life would be really difficult. However, seeing the child's smart and clever appearance, he categorically refused: "I'm sorry, I can't accept the child as an apprentice......"
"Why? Is my child not smart or disobedient?...... This kid is very real, you can rest assured!"
"No, the key is that he is too young and has a good future, and we can't delay his future...... It's better for your child to continue studying. ”
"Master, his academic performance is not very good, it seems that there is no hope of being admitted to a prestigious university. Nowadays, too many college students can't find a job. Anyway, after studying in college, you still have to go to work to earn money, so why don't you work early? Knowing that you can't get into a famous brand or a key university, it is a waste of time and money! It is better to learn some craftsmen as soon as possible, and live a happy life. ”
Ah Le said: "No matter what you say, I still can't accept this child...... I can't bear to delay the happiness of my child's life. Although we are currently making ends meet, we are not as profitable as you think. It's also hard to make money in business. Children should read more books and have greater achievements in the future...... Uncle, I advise you to support your child to continue studying, lest he grow up and complain about you. He is still young and ignorant, and he can't understand himself correctly, and now, in the prime of school, there is only one such opportunity in a person's life, and learning a craft can be carried out at any time......"
The boy continued Ah Le's words and said, "Master, I ...... I thought about it. This is also something I am willing to do, anyway, I can only take two exams in the school's rankings, although I don't negotiate tuition, how can it cost more than 100,000 yuan after four years of college. We have nothing left in our family now, and by the time I finish college, find a job, buy a house in the city, get married, have children, and pay off my debts, I'm afraid I'll be very old...... Therefore, choosing to learn a craft to find cash is also my own idea, and I will not blame my father in the future. ”
"Child, you still don't understand, now is the era of reading, and there will be no chance to read in the future, and even if there is an opportunity, there is no thought. You have to think about it......"
"Master, don't persuade me...... I really didn't have the motivation to study at all. Not only is the foundation not very good, but because I see through the boring reading, I am often distracted in class and can't listen to what the teacher is talking about. What's more, I almost lost confidence in whether I would be able to find a job after going to university. Even if Tong Guò worked hard to be admitted to university, he still spent tens of thousands of yuan in his family, and he still couldn't stand on his own two feet after studying in college...... It's time and money, it's better to learn the craft early and make money......"
Ah Le sighed and said, "Child, don't see these dark sides, but see the future and the bright side." I believe that these will not last long, and they will definitely get better. The so-called natural I will be useful, and I hate less when the book is used. When the time comes to use you, you didn't read, and it's too late to regret it. I had to go back to school and finish the last few months of high school. Strive to go to college...... In fact, I feel both honored and saddened by your persistent pursuit of learning my craft. It is an honor that our craft has finally been recognized by people. Sadly...... Our craft was born from humble beginnings...... It's just a profession to make a living. ”
"No matter how high or low the occupation is, as long as it can earn money, it is a good occupation, and rural people, whatever you talk about, you can make money!" said the child's father.
"Actually, when I was young, it was because I didn't have the opportunity to read more books, and when I was competing for a job, I was only laid off because I didn't graduate from a regular full-time school with a diploma. I've always regretted it...... After joining the work, I worked very hard, and I also paid attention to strengthening my further education, and I studied at Han University and night college, and I got a lot of diplomas, but I was laid off because I was not in a regular school. That's why I still insist that my child finish high school......," Le said.
The child's father said harshly, "Okay...... We learn from you because we admire your reputation as a barbecue king. How do you know that you are also the apprentice of Master Liu Yishou Liu, I am afraid that if you teach the apprentice well, you will starve the master......? If you don't learn barbecue, you can learn other crafts!"
Ah Le said: "Don't be angry, you misunderstood what I meant. It's not that I don't take in apprentices. I'm really afraid of delaying my child's future, because my child is the golden time for learning, and I can't mislead him...... Knowledge is very useful in any industry. For example, this barbecue bar involves a lot of knowledge about hygiene, nutrition, medicine, and so on...... Without a knowledge base, how can you innovate?"
