40. Tasting & Limiting
When I entered the door, I realized that Lu Cheng didn't eat lunch. Aunt Yu also told her that he had stayed in the study for a day and never came out, so let her pay attention.
Is this disgusted that she didn't go out to find him, she agreed and regretted it, and regretted it and tortured herself in turn? Older men really can't understand!
Chen Ran sat down to have a meal with him, and after eating, the two went to the study together, he did his business, and she turned on her laptop to find the successful marketing model and famous dishes of famous dessert shops in Haishi and even in the country, as well as shops similar to selling Chinese dim sum.
It took another hour and a half to re-read the three books brought by Mao Xiaodao, and finally copied three kinds of sweet soup, wine-stuffed balls, assorted fruit soup, and longan jujube kernel soup, the method looks quite ordinary, but I don't know what the finished product will be.
When she turned around, she was about to say something to Lu Cheng, she was about to go downstairs to the kitchen, only to find that since she came to the study after dinner, his video conference with people had not stopped at all.
Chen Ran pursed his lips, carefully pushed away the swivel chair, stepped on the soft long-haired carpet, and couldn't help rubbing and rubbing. The indoor temperature is high, she is impatient to wear socks, and she wears cotton slippers barefoot, mainly because under her throne, there is the same carpet as in the living room of Wu City, pure white without variegation, soft and thick, and her feet feel quite comfortable.
Walking out of the blanket and kicking the slippers to the floor, Lu Cheng heard the movement and looked up at her, "What are you going to do?" β
Chen Ran turned his back, shook the paper in his hand, and said with a smile, "I'll make you sweet soup to drink, wait." β
"Leave it to Auntie, don't do it." Lu Cheng instructed.
Chen Ran should not fail to answer, made a grimace and quickly ran out of the door.
After a few words of answering, Lu Cheng returned to the video casually, and the people who were connecting the line recalled the scene just now with a strange expression.
Lu Cheng drew a few strokes on the text with a fountain pen, then pointed to the paper with the tip of the pen, and continued without knowing anything, "The estimated cost estimate is too high, the SD13 project in Southeast Asia is suspended, and Ai Wen continues to follow up." Next ......"
Those who haven't reacted yet: ......
"Who is it?" Lu Cheng looked down at Wen JiΓ n, and waited for a long time for no one to reply.
"Ah, I, I," Mr. Li in the video nervously cleared his throat, "the eastern section of Area A on the top slope of Hushi Mountain, the soil is desertified, the design drawings of the hydropower project have been revised, and the construction period has been delayed by ten days, and your signature is required." β
Lu Cheng found a stack of Hushi from the mountains of texts on the side, and then turned out the one about the re-reform plan of the hydropower process design drawing, and directly saw the page of the design drawing, which is probably a glance, and signed his name at the bottom right of the back page.
"It's okay," Lu Cheng closed the text and pressed it into the finished Wen JiΓ n folder, looked up and found that his call button was still on, and asked, "Is there anything else?" β
"You, the one, already live with her?" After Mr. Li finished speaking, he broke out in a hot sweat, curiosity killed the cat, the big gossip fell in front of him, he really couldn't help it, "The news from the sea market is true?" The dragon sees the fruit of the head but not the end. But the vice president of the administration department is her? β
Lu Cheng tapped the pen in his hand and asked coldly, "What, what is your opinion?" β
If it weren't for the fact that the two sides were actually two hundred kilometers apart, if they were face to face, Li Dafa might have been forced under the chair by him with a word, just now he was just relying on him to be angry and take him for a while, but he really saw that he was on the verge of anger, where not to coax, "No, where there is an opinion, originally, it is up to you." β
Lu Cheng looked away from his screen cubicle, looked at the other five grids, and asked in a similar tone, "Do you have any opinions?" β
No, no, obviously there is no call button, and the CEOs of International Hengrui, who have different skin tones, men and women, even waved their hands and spoke, swearing in their native languages, refusing to express this opinion.
If you want to say that Hengrui was founded, Lu Cheng is absolutely a word. After Hengrui stabilized, tens of millions of project managers have decision-making power, Lu Cheng and the board of directors only look at performance, only hundreds of millions of projects need to convene a board of directors, Lu Cheng personally accounts for 65% of Hengrui's shares, retaining a veto.
And the fruit. However, Lu Cheng implements an irreversible β‘β‘ with 85% of the shares held by himself, and no one is allowed to point fingers at the established decisions, regardless of whether you are good, bad, and have pertinent opinions, he does not allow anyone to have a chance to speak in front of him. Of course, in recent years, with the fruit. However, with the strength of ten billion assets in ten years, those who want to say it will automatically shut up.
He wants to appoint a vice president today, and tomorrow he wants to give up the position of president to someone else, and he will make an announcement directly, without informing anyone at all.
Many people at the top of Hengrui can't understand this, not to mention his personal ability, people's energy is always limited, and while managing Hengrui, it is necessary to spend time controlling the results. However, under the double pressure, I am tired and panicked when I think about it.
Today, Li Dafa had a bad mouth, and driven by curiosity, he almost broke Lu Cheng's double bottom line, and he was very brave.
But for the high-level Hengrui who has become a demon, the smell from the three words and two sentences is absolutely extraordinary-Could it be that he has really been so clear from Hengrui from beginning to end, that is, he will be the boss's private treasury in the future!
I'll go, if this is true, if it spreads, none of their backhouses will be peaceful, and their own tigers will not be able to swallow them alive.
Regardless of the bosses on the six small screens, how wonderful their faces were, Lu Chengquan didn't see it, and continued lightly, "No opinion, just hurry up, Shukla is on your ......"
When Chen Ran and Aunt Yu were studying sweet soup in the kitchen, they found that for example, according to the traditional method of brewing balls with wine, it is Aunt Yu's method, which is also delicious, but in strict accordance with the Mao Xiaodao book, it tastes a lot better from the feeling alone, and Aunt Yu, the 'imperial chef' of the Lu family, gave a positive opinion on this matter.
The last pot of sweet soup was hotly put out of the table, and Secretary Lian came with someone.
"It's just right," Chen Ran tried several bowls just now, and his stomach was full, so he didn't come to help, "Taste the taste, by the way, tell me that the delicious in the blue bowl is still in the white bowl." β
"This is work?" Lian Cheng instructed one of his assistants to send Wen JiΓ n upstairs and walked over with the second assistant.
"Sort of," Chen Ran spooned out a few more bowls, and after putting them one by one, he gave him an intimate advice, "If you think it's too sweet, rinse your mouth with the water next to you." β
Lian Cheng brought a bowl of wine-stuffed balls in blue and white, and the second assistant left behind took the rest of the fruit sweet soup and longan jujube kernel soup.
"How about it," Chen Ran stared at them wide-eyed, and before he took a bite, he couldn't help but ask, "Which bowl is delicious?" β
Lian Cheng decisively pointed to the blue, "The sweetness is delicious, soft and chewy, I don't usually like sweets, but there is no problem after eating this bowl." β
"I think too, in the blue bowl," the assistant next to him, who couldn't wait to express his opinion, while talking, he still put his mouth on the edge of the bowl, swished a big gulp, and gave up the spoon directly.
Chen Ran was surprised and delighted, in the face of Lian Cheng, who had a weak sweet tooth, he naturally found a sweet fanatic, which made people look excited and busy, "You slow down, it's still a little hot." β
"No," Assistant II replied vaguely, sensing that something was wrong, so he hurriedly swallowed it in his mouth and said in a surprising voice, "It's as delicious as my mother made when I was a child." β
It's not easy to compare! Chen Ran tilted his head to look at him and just smiled.
Lian Cheng's throat choked, and he seemed to be smiling, "Your mother made it, which chef is your mother?" β
Clearly ridiculous, the second assistant reported to the leader quite seriously, "She is the best food in our community, if you don't believe it, you can inquire." β
Whoever wants to inquire about this, Lian Cheng's heart is full of anger, he shouldn't ask him, it's redundant.
It was rare to see that Secretary Lian still had no choice about anyone, the smile on Chen Ran's face became more and more uncontrollable, and he persuaded vigorously, "Then you eat more, there are still here, make more, you can eat as much as you want." β
Assistant Erxin thought so, and poured all the rest of the bowl into his mouth, Chen Ran saw that foodies always appreciated it, pointed to the pot at hand and said, "Don't worry, you can't finish eating, you can take it away." β
"Hmm......" There were so many things in his mouth that he couldn't speak clearly, and the second assistant nodded desperately.
Lian Cheng didn't even have a roll of his eyes, so he directly pushed him behind him, let him eat slowly, and talked to Chen Ranna, "You don't like to eat for the family." β
The plan was not mature, she was embarrassed to talk casually, but if someone asked, she didn't want to keep it secret, not to mention that the other party was still a secretary of Lian, and she sincerely wanted to ask, "I want to open a Chinese dessert shop, what do you think of this idea." β
Lian Cheng replied with a smile, "I think it's very good, where are you going to drive?" I think you can think about it directly, sure enough, I'll send you information about the shops that have recently been terminated or idle...... Of course, there are special requirements for the square orientation of the store, you can tell me directly, or you can tell me sΓΉ Xiaohong...... I believe that the decoration is handed over to Xiao Yezi, he is unreliable, and the design is still good...... When it comes to recruiting employees, you can go to him. β
Lian Cheng's index finger stretched back, and behind him stood the second assistant who couldn't raise his head soaked in the sweet soup.
Chen Ran just asked for an opinion, and Secretary Lian decisively added her follow-up, the most critical elements of opening a store, easily in less than a few minutes, until it is properly resolved, if you want to find something as simple as Chen Ran opening a store in this world, there are not many possibilities.
But then again, Chen Ran didn't have no intention of doing this kind of trivial thing, but took it for granted that it should be easy, and it turned out to be true, so he concentrated on how to make the desserts in the store most attractive to customers, and not seem thin.
So, in the back of Lian Cheng, "I ate the dim sum you brought to the company last time, and I ate it really well, especially the Qingtuan, of course, it would be better if it was filled with pickles." β
You see that everyone is difficult to reconcile, he thinks that he should put pickles, and she is more acceptable to put red bean paste, or sesame filling, or meat floss in it! When arranging a recipe, she must think carefully.
Chen Ran was directly caught in hard thinking by his last sentence, the variety of dim sum cannot be set according to personal taste, the sweet soup is too sweet, and you have to find a light or salty taste, and then you have to think of a main product, the price is cheap, and the taste must be unforgettable.
What is it, maybe she should do a few survey materials, put them at the front desk of Hengrui for personal gain, one per person, and hand it in before work, will it be too much!
She thought deeply, lowered her eyes, poked and scratched with her fingers on the marble-faced counter, and then got down from the high stool, and went into the kitchen without saying hello, forgetting the person who greeted her.
Lian Cheng just shook his head funny, a person with a professional spirit is the boss, it is better to save worry and effort than to come without caring about everything.
"Leader, leader, am I ashamed?" The second assistant saw the female boss leaving, and followed Lian Cheng in a hurry.
Lian Cheng rolled his eyes, he almost forgot that there was such a guy beside him, "You still know, what did I tell you before I came?" "This kid is very professional, but he often acts unexpectedly and makes people weak.
"I did what you wanted."
Lian Cheng was surprised and stopped to look at him, "What do I mean?" β
Assistant 2's aggrieved defense, "What do you mean is that when you come here, one is not to offend the female boss, the other is not to make the female boss hate, and the third is to strictly follow the previous two articles." You see, I'm doing my best to please the female boss. β
Lian Cheng almost choked to death by his own saliva, and snorted people from beginning to end like looking at rare species, "Boy, you have the ability, the African continent needs talents like you very much, let's report tomorrow and take office." β
"Leader ......" assistant two was frightened and begged bitterly with his eyes, but he didn't dare to say anything begging for mercy under the forced gaze of Secretary Lian.
It must be that I ate too much dessert, the sweetness overflowed, and I was miserable, what should I do.
When he went to work on Monday, Chen Ran listened to Professor Qian's class as usual, Yunni and them were also ordinary, and Master Ye still played with his mobile phone in class, but during the recess, he didn't talk to Yunni, so that the atmosphere in the small conference room was too calm than usual. It's just that whenever Chen Ran is free, his mind is full of the idea of the dessert shop, and he doesn't notice it at all.
"You designed it so quickly," Chen Ran took the drawing handed over by Ye Shikai in surprise and looked at it carefully.
Folio Chinese-style wooden doors, hollow panes, a cursory look, the details depicted, from the lighting to the tables and chairs, flowers, pendants, all of which combine the classical charm and the bright combination of modern atmosphere, the key is to draw the sincerity of the painting, obviously the details are the lines of the trace, seducing your spontaneous imagination infinitely.
Chen Ran raised his finger and praised, "It's really good, I didn't expect you to still have a set." β
"That's not it," Ye Shikai raised his head arrogantly, "Don't look at who I am, this is my old job, if this doesn't work anymore, why are you still alive." β
"You're talking too much," Chen Ran wanted to say, since that's the case, what are you doing in Hengrui. But she also muttered in her heart, always feeling that if she broke it, it might be a sad thing, so why bother.
"But I haven't found the shop yet, and your design draft is too early."
"What's this, it's almost this style, if you think you can, fine-tune the details." Ye Shikai is very confident in this.
"Okay, then you can also help me see, how about this menu." Chen Ran simply took out the menu that he had studied for the weekend.
As soon as Ye Shikai got started, he called out without looking at the two lines, "I haven't drunk the sweet soup, the hibiscus cake of this flower series of pastries, plum blossom cake...... I haven't eaten anything before, I've only eaten the three colors in the eight-color crystal cake, you don't let me taste it first, what's the use of just looking at it. β
Indeed, the assistant brought by Secretary Lian was too strong, and when he left later, he walked away with the pot, but his face was not very good, as if he was forced to behave, but when he first tasted it, he liked it very much. So, when she went to work on Monday, she didn't have any stock to bring to the company, "or you can go home with me at night, and there is still a little leftover at home, all for you to eat." β
When Ye Shikai heard this, he didn't pursue the rest, but just looked at her strangely, "Boss Lu went out to socialize at night, and you didn't follow?" β
"What?" Chen Ran couldn't turn a corner, the key was that he should not be entertained and invited him to taste at home with her, there was no conflict, and there were no rules at home, and foreign men were not allowed.
Ye Shikai looked at her a lot, and almost looked at her before asking, "I said, haven't you asked about the Du family, or Boss Lu refuses to tell you." β
Chen Ran was really stunned for a moment, to be honest, if he hadn't mentioned it, she would have forgotten about it at all, "You mean to say that Lu Cheng is going to have dinner with Du Wei at night?" β
"How is that possible, she has such a big face, it is estimated that Boss Lu still doesn't know who Du Wei is, it was Mrs. Du who invited Boss Lu to dinner and discuss the matter of Yan Zhou, do you understand, Du Wei will also go."
"Oh......" Chen Ran finally understood, looked back and thought about it carefully, and spread his hands, "He really didn't tell me." β
Ye Shikai heard that she was sure, and he had an expression that was really like this, and he lowered his voice to follow the temptation, "Then you go and ask him now, if he goes home for dinner in the evening, see what he says." β
"He's busy at this time." Chen Ran was a little unsure.
"When he's not busy, you just send a text message." Ye Shikai seemed to be eager to know some possibility, and he was a little anxious.
"Okay," it's over, text them anytime, anywhere.
[Do you want to go home for dinner at night?] I want to ask Xiaoye to come to my house to try dessert. γ
After less than a minute, the text message returned, [Eat outside, you come with me, and deliver the dessert to the company tomorrow............ Master Ye opened and closed his mouth!!!! γ
The ellipsis and the exclamation point of the screen are swiped, is this really Lu Cheng's reply? Chen Ran looked up in surprise and inquired, but saw that Ye Shikai's face turned into a pig's liver, and the fashionable hairstyle on one side was about to be erected into a cockscomb, and he said angrily, "I just don't close it, what's the matter, if you have the ability to throw me back, I thank him." β
This is tsundere, Chen Ran also felt incredible, how did he know, could it be that there were people around, or cameras were installed in all directions in the lounge of the pantry?
