Chapter 495: See Uncle Lin
Sealand Street, the founding place of Sealand Department Store. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, there were many more people on Sealand Street than at the beginning, and it was still a hardware industrial street a year ago.
Today, however, there is not just Sealand Department Store, there are several, and even a few other stalls and shops.
On both sides of a main road beyond Sealand Street, there are also all kinds of storefronts, and in just one year, the neighborhood has undergone earth-shaking changes.
And this, all because more than a year ago, the first store in the mainland entered strongly.
Today, the first store in mainland China has blossomed not only in Guangzhou, but also in all parts of the south, and Sealand Department Store can be seen everywhere.
In fact, at the beginning, Zhao Ming didn't want his store to open so fast, but the country is developing too fast, it is rising everywhere, people are rich, it is developing everywhere, and it is progressing everywhere.
He no longer insisted, so half a year ago, he gradually increased the pace of expanding the store, and it is because of this that he can now have a net worth of more than 10 million.
This is all due to the fact that he opened more than a hundred shops in the southern provinces, although it is not the main reason, but this component is very large.
Although he opened many branches, and many of them were outside the province, Zhao Ming did not go to see them, and sent special people to take care of them and hire local people to manage them.
Now, he is back on Sealand Street again, and his heart is full of emotion.
When he got out of the car, Zhao Ming was wearing sunglasses and was dressed more casually. It's still early, it's not time to go to work, and the store is going to open early. And because it was not the working time, and it was not the peak time for the store to be crowded, there were not many customers in the store that expanded again.
Walking around the store alone, Zhao Ming occasionally saw a clerk yawning and someone whispering, but after seeing him, they all smiled and nodded.
In the past, these clerks would come forward to sell, but then Zhao Ming implemented a new policy, allowing customers to look at it at will and buy whatever they want. Unless there is a new product, it will be sold at a special counter.
And Zhao Ming was wearing sunglasses, and those clerks were a little listless, so they didn't even notice that their big boss was watching here.
But gradually, some clerks noticed Zhao Ming and felt familiar, looking at it with a slight frown, and some people even pointed to Zhao Ming with their colleagues, as if they were talking in a low voice.
Zhao Ming came in with a briefcase, which was full of drums, containing Moutai liquor and some food. Therefore, the security guard pays the most attention to such a person, so along the way, there are security guards who pretend not to care and glance at him.
Looking all the way, Zhao Ming came to the front desk, here, he saw Uncle Lin sitting on a bench behind the counter, with a smile on his face, very energetic, scanning the store, and then saw him too, just nodded, and didn't recognize it for a while.
The old man's eyesight was not good, so he just regarded Zhao Ming as an ordinary boss, but he still rarely saw anyone wearing sunglasses, so he took a second look.
But after looking at it too much, he saw that something was wrong.
He stood up suddenly, his eyes wide as if he wanted to see clearly. But Zhao Ming had already stepped over the guardrail, came to his side, smiled and opened his hands, and hugged him fiercely.
There is a passage behind the front desk, but there is a guardrail on the other side, which is for employees to rest, and customers and miscellaneous people are not allowed to enter.
When Zhao Ming stepped over the guardrail just now, the cashier lady at the front desk and the security guard who was watching were about to come over, but when they saw him hugging Uncle Lin, they all stepped back.
It seems to be an acquaintance of Uncle Lin.
"Coming back?"
"Well, I came back last night, and I miss you this morning, so I'll take a look."
"Haha, okay, okay."
Uncle Lin was speechless with excitement, so he could only pat Zhao Ming's shoulder and couldn't help laughing.
Everyone was puzzled, why was Store Manager Lin so excited? Could it be that his long-lost son can't do it?
The salespeople in the other stores were all right, and they also came to see the excitement. It's the first time they've seen Uncle Lin so excited, who is that person?
"You're wearing sunglasses, and I haven't recognized you at a glance." Uncle Lin laughed and pulled Zhao Ming to sit down.
Zhao Ming was not polite, and said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll pick him up and let my uncle see me clearly." ”
As he spoke, Zhao Ming took off his sunglasses, and his familiar face suddenly appeared in everyone's eyes, which immediately caused a burst of exclamations.
"Oh my God, it's the boss."
"It's really the boss, the boss is back."
"I felt familiar just now, and I couldn't remember where I saw it, but I didn't expect it to be Boss Zhao coming back."
"Woo woo, I thought the boss had opened so many branches, and I don't remember us here."
"No, even if the boss forgets our branch, he won't forget Manager Lin."
The employees were all excited to come forward, and the front desk lady saw that there were no guests coming, so she also stepped forward to say hello.
The security guard of the store also stepped forward to say hello, and almost all the people in the store came to greet Zhao Ming, and those who couldn't leave their jobs were also beckoning from afar.
Zhao Ming also responded a few words, and then the guests in the store also saw Zhao Ming, some people were very bland, they didn't chase stars, but some people were very excited, came forward to shake hands with Zhao Ming, and asked for warmth.
In this regard, Zhao Ming was very helpless, he came to catch up with Uncle Lin, but now he is tired of others.
In the end, he had no choice but to say hello, and then went into the lounge with Uncle Lin, and also asked someone to go to the store to bring a bag of peanuts, with the cooked food he bought, and drank directly in the morning.
"Uncle, try the Moutai in Xiaoqing's store to see if it tastes the same as when Sister Wei got married?" Zhao Ming smiled and poured a glass of wine for Uncle Lin.
When Lin Weier got married, she was Zhao Mingdang's wedding host, and she was still miserable at that time, and Uncle Lin even saved money for meals in order to give Lin Weier an unforgettable wedding.
It was also for this reason that Uncle Lin fired the manager of the factory at the beginning, in short, at that time, he was really miserable. Uncle Lin even felt desperate because of this, and he didn't even have any drinks at the wedding.
Fortunately, Zhao Ming had already started to have money at that time, and he bought a lot of Moutai to go back and solve this problem.
"This one tastes better, haha......" Uncle Lin laughed.
Uncle Lin has actually drunk a lot of wine recently, and Moutai has not drunk less. The old man only has this hobby, and now Zhao Ming gives him such a high salary, and he gets more than 1,000 shares every month, which is enough to support him to drink every day.
But now that Zhao Ming poured him wine, he naturally wanted to drink more, and he also thought it was extraordinarily delicious.
"It's delicious, today's wine is very delicious." Uncle Lin laughed, and his laughter even reached outside the lounge.
At this time, there are more and more people in the store, and it is already working time, and it is morning work time, and there are usually few people at this time. Today, however, there are a lot of people.
After someone left just now, it was just passed that Zhao Ming was back, and he was in the lounge of this store.
One spread ten, ten spread hundred, and it attracted a lot of people at once.
When these people came in, they were also looking at it casually, whether they needed anything or not, they would pick it up and look at it, but what they saw the most was the lounge.
The sound insulation effect inside is actually very good, but Uncle Lin is so happy that he laughs loudly, and laughter is faintly heard outside.
After two hours, Zhao Ming came out of the lounge, he actually had a drink, not because he was too drunk, but because he had to drive later.
As for Uncle Lin, basically he drank both bottles of wine, and there was a hint of drunkenness on his face, and his mouth was full of oil and water.
He was so happy today that he forgot his own rules, he was not allowed to drink during work hours, and besides, he had just come to work, that is, he had eaten breakfast not long ago.
But that's it, he still drinks with Zhao Ming, mainly because he is too happy.
During this period, Lin Weier came once, and when she saw Uncle Lin and Zhao Ming drinking happily, she just said hello and left.
"Uncle, I'm leaving."
"Okay, come back another day, no, come back when you're free, you have a lot of things, or come back when you're free."
Uncle Lin originally wanted Zhao Ming to come more, preferably every day, but he thought that Zhao Ming was a busy man, there were a lot of things, and they were all very important. It seems that there is an urgent matter today, and I miss him purely to see him.
Zhao Ming shook his head with a smile, and when he came out, he still held Uncle Lin's hand, and in just over a year, the old man looked even older. But the mentality is much younger.
As soon as he came out, Zhao Ming was discovered, and then the crowd instantly surrounded him.
He is now like a big star, and many domestic stars in Shenzhen are not as famous as him. Some people even say that he is more famous than Teresa Teng, as for whether it is or not, it is the opinion of the benevolent and the wise.
In fact, as an engineer, it is really remarkable to be able to mix to the extent of Zhao Ming. As for being as famous as him, I really haven't seen it before.
"Teacher Zhao, is it really you?"
"Teacher Zhao, won't you leave when you come back this time?"
"Can you tell me what you came back for? Is it time to start another business? Can you reveal some of that? ”
"Teacher Zhao, my mother likes you very much, my father likes you too, and my whole family likes you very much."
These people are too enthusiastic, if the staff didn't know that they would be able to see Zhao Ming often in the future, maybe they would have come over to say hello desperately.
Zhao Ming was also happy, greeted them one by one, and finally took half an hour to get out, but when he got out of the gate, he found that there were also a lot of people blocking at the gate.
Then it took another half an hour, and it was only at noon that he was able to leave, and even at noon, when it was time to get off work, more people heard that he had returned to Sealand Street, and rushed over.
