Chapter 243: Wild Lilies Have Spring
In Lao Qin's opinion, Zhao Yili is not a thing in the pool at all, and sooner or later it will definitely soar into the sky! In today's patriarchal world, a strong man will definitely be surrounded by many excellent women, as for men, whether he sticks to his feelings from the beginning to the end, or has a broader mind to embrace all rivers, it depends on his ability to control the horse.
With his decades of eyesight, the relationship between Ma Yan and Zhao Yili is definitely extraordinary, and it is definitely not as simple as the so-called "good friend" he introduced when he first met, but he naturally will not pierce this layer of window paper, and he is also happy to see this ambiguous story between young men and women.
As for Si Shuangshuang's child, although he is also a very good girl, however, between people, it is necessary to pay attention to fate, in this regard, as an elder, and an outsider, he can only be happy to see it, besides, he has no reason to make a move!
After chatting a lot, drinking a lot of wine, chatting and chatting, the two of them almost killed the bottle of Wuliangye in a catty, Zhao Yili saw that the heat was almost over, so he mentioned the matter that Xiao Qin Si asked him.
As soon as Lao Qin heard that this was the case, his old face, which was already very red, became even more ruddy, and it seemed that he was also a little embarrassed.
When Zhao Yili was thinking about how to phrase to probe Old Qin's tone, he only heard a sigh, and Old Qin took the initiative to open his mouth:
The whole cause and effect of this incident is as follows:
I'm not afraid of the jokes of the two of you, my daughter is also there, although I am ashamed of this, but I can guarantee that I have never done anything out of the ordinary to disgrace this family, which I can swear to God.
Speaking of which, with Old Uncle Qin's current social status. In this matter, there was no need to lie at all, so everyone sat up straight and listened.
"Tan Xiu, is my classmate, both of us went to technical school after graduating from junior high school, and we both learned cooking, and at that time, among the classmates, the two of us were the most skilled, and we were almost always praised by the teacher at the same time. Almost all of the normal dishes are chosen between the two of us, this time I chose mine, and the next time I chose her, she has also won some more famous industry awards. The classmates and teachers all regarded the two of us as a couple, intentionally or unintentionally, and they can be regarded as childhood sweethearts. We also have a good impression of each other, but it's not love, and we can't say it well. Maybe I'm not good at expressing myself. ”
When he said this, Lao Qin seemed to have lightened the wrinkles on his face, and his eyes also shone brightly, and a clear-eyed person could know it at a glance. This man must be telling his own glorious history.
"We studied southern cuisine, and when we graduated, we made an appointment to go to a southern city to work hard, and then we did make the trip. We encouraged and supported each other through a difficult start. Soon I became a little famous in Guangdong, and I was going to partner together to make a catering business to show my talents, but I finally returned to my hometown because of the health of the elderly, and she resolutely stayed, just like that, we broke up, and we haven't seen each other for nearly 17 years.
"Later, I met Sisi's mother, her mother, you know, is a woman who knows cold and hot, I thought that the old people in the family were indeed I couldn't take care of it alone, so I became a family with her mother, and that Tan Xiu should have been married to a wealthy businessman at that time, and she never worked as a professional chef again.
"We are all working our respective tracks, wandering, and squandering our youth, until when I expanded our Qinhuai family to various representative cities under your suggestion, we met again at a small-scale thank-you banquet for city leaders.
"That year, old friends reunited after a long absence, so naturally we had to have a good chat, right, so we both knew each other's recent situation.
Later, she continued to follow my footsteps, and traveled to almost all the cities where Qinhuai people have branches, and I told her very clearly that I already have a family, a virtuous wife, and a lovely daughter, and I am very happy, and it is absolutely impossible to have anything further to do with her, but she said, just want to see me more, nothing else to think.
Later, Sisi's mother found out, they actually met, I don't know what they talked about, she really didn't come to see me very often, just occasionally make a phone call, ask for safety, or occasionally come to my store to bring friends to dinner, it's almost normal.
After Lao Qin said this, he seemed to hesitate, looked at his daughter, then at Zhao Yili, and then as if he had made up his mind, he drank a little wine in the last bottle, and then said without vomiting or unpleasantly:
"I admit that I still have feelings for her, but I can swear to God: I never thought of abandoning my wife and children to be with her. I will definitely fulfill the responsibilities of a husband, a father, naturally I still have feelings for the family and for my wife and daughter, I just, I also hope that occasionally in a corner of this city, there is such a confidant, can listen to me and talk to me about the occasional inner depression, is this really too much? ”
When they heard this, Zhao Yili and Ma Yan were silent, even Xiao Qin Si, who was originally a little indignant about his mother, was also infected by his father's story for a while.
It is true that Lao Qin has now started a family, married a wife and had children, but it does not mean that he cannot have his own circle of friends, if it does not endanger family life, with Lao Qin's current social status, it is too normal to have a few social friends.
The reason why the people around me are angry is that they are just concerned and confused, and it seems that the truth of the facts, in many cases, is not as simple as what we see with our own eyes.
Xiao Qin Si stood up, hugged Lao Qin's neck, and said slowly to Lao Qin: "Dad, I blame you, I'm sorry." You're a good dad, and my mom and I have always believed in you. ”
In fact, maybe his mother has not made any further moves because of this matter, after the misunderstanding was resolved, Qin Si did not see his mother have any more depressed moods, now that he knew the truth of the matter, then naturally speaking, the clouds will disperse.
Lao Qin himself felt guilty in his heart. Hearing such a few empathetic words from my daughter, I felt even more emotional.
After the meal, Xiao Qin Si flattered him to use the tea ceremony he had just learned to make tea, divide the tea, and several people continued to chat.
Lao Qin took a sip of tea, pressed the wine down, gradually recovered his relatively normal mood, and said to Zhao Yili:
"When you come back this time, you won't leave, what are your plans?"
"Hmm. I will go to Hong Kong to study for graduate school next, and at the same time, I have set up an investment company headquarters there, and will continue to look for suitable investment projects in major cities in China. ”
Lao Qin sighed and said, I don't know how expensive firewood and rice are if I don't belong to my family. I'm really not a manager, and the 20 or so stores are already a little tired of management, so I need to expand the scale. It's definitely not going to be fun, Stone, you should have a lot of contacts in this area, help me find a management talent. It also made my old man concentrate on studying my cooking, and managing this thing is really not what I am good at.
Lao Qin is actually not unreasonable, a family-owned business was founded at the beginning. Because of the small scale, flexible management and enterprising spirit, it is very able to adjust the strategy in a timely manner and seize the opportunity to develop rapidly, such as the development opportunities of Qinhuai people.
On the one hand, after the reform and opening up, the common people generally have some savings in their pockets, resulting in the original few set foot in the restaurant, restaurant is also overcrowded, because of the prosperity and development of the economy, whether it is an enterprise or a public institution, how much more? This actually provides a market opportunity for the birth of personalized private restaurants.
In addition, these private restaurants provide niche services, exquisite dishes, elegant and chic environments, and avoid the peak of tips for public catering.
However, once the enterprise is scaled, the requirements for management have become more than one notch.
First of all, after most enterprises are on the scale, they are rarely able to maintain the style of "starting from small things, learning to suffer losses, and cooperating with others" in the early stage of entrepreneurship, but all of them are considered in the general direction, the details are not in place, and they compete viciously with their peers, and live by the credit books of the past, do not seek innovation, and do not reflect, which leads to the rigidity of the management of the branches.
These factors will lead to an enterprise in a short period of time to lose its valuable competitive advantage, and gradually degenerate into mediocrity, Lao Qin's Qinhuai family is also a microcosm of it, although now it shows that the business is prosperous, but in fact, all aspects of the embodiment of the gang faction, coping with things, middle-level management cadres lack experience, unwilling to take responsibility, but to reap the benefits, for credit in this area of these energetic undercurrents, but also really make Lao Qin a headache.
Zhao Yili can imagine this situation, and it is normal, but what should be said is still to be said:
smiled and comforted Lao Qin:
"Uncle Qin, I think these situations you mentioned are very normal, and they are also a process that must be experienced after the enterprise develops to a certain scale.
"In fact, to be a business and be the boss, you should set the direction, set the team, set the tone, and whip it! You don't have to overcomplicate it. ”
Lao Qin was a little stunned: "What do you mean by setting the direction, setting the team, setting the tone, and whipping?" Xiao Qin Si and Ma Yan were even more confused.
At this time, most of the entrepreneurs seem to be in a simple management structure, that is, if the boss says a word, it is the credit of the boss to do well, and if they do not do well, everyone will wait for the tree to fall and scatter, and leave with severance pay. (To be continued.) )
PS: After most enterprises are on the scale, they are rarely able to maintain the style of "starting from small things, learning to suffer, and cooperating with others" in the early days of entrepreneurship, but all of them are considered in the general direction, the details are not in place, and they compete viciously with their peers, and live by the credit books of the past, do not seek innovation, and do not reflect, which leads to the rigidity of the management of the branches.
These factors will lead to an enterprise in a short period of time to lose its valuable competitive advantage, and gradually degenerate into mediocrity, Lao Qin's Qinhuai family is also a microcosm of it, although now it shows that the business is prosperous, but in fact, all aspects of the embodiment of the gang faction, coping with things, middle-level management cadres lack experience, unwilling to take responsibility, but to reap the benefits, for credit in this area of these energetic undercurrents, but also really make Lao Qin a headache.
