"Boom" dark clouds rolling, lightning and thunder, and the hideous, distorted sky, as if it is about to collapse at any time, giving people a sense of suffocating oppression.

The little girl Lin Yu buried her head deep in Zheng Zhishang's arms and wrists, her young arms hugged Zheng Zhishang tightly, her weak body was still shivering. But he was also frightened by this thunder.

Zheng Zhishang gently stroked the little girl's back, and at the same time, his arm was slightly forced, hugging the little girl tighter, and said softly: "Yaya, don't be afraid, there is a brother." ”

"Hmm" Although the little girl was barely bold, her little head rubbed up and down on Zheng Zhishang's body and nodded. However, with a "pop", thunder came, and a lightning flash, as if it was split outside the window. Although I didn't see that scene, the white light instantly illuminated the dark room.

is still so scared that the little girl is not light, and she almost cries out in fright.

Seeing this, Zheng Zhishang was distressed, but there was no way at all, the sky was going to thunder and rain, and this was not something he could call the shots, he could only hope that the lightning and thunder would pass quickly, covering the little girl's ears, and softly relieved.

I don't know how long it took, but the thunder finally faded away, and the sound of "crackling" rain began to sound outside the window. At this time, Zheng Zhishang breathed a sigh of relief, and when he looked down at Lin Yu, he found that the little girl had fallen asleep at some point, sweating profusely, and even the little pajamas on her body were completely wet with sweat.

I didn't care about the little girl who fell asleep with great difficulty, and woke her up softly.

"It's raining, brother......" Lin Yu, the little girl who opened her eyes in a daze, said without a beginning or an end.

"Hmm" Zheng Zhishang nodded and said, "Yaya, don't sleep yet, Brother will go fetch water for you, wipe the sweat on your body, and sleep." ”

"I'm so sleepy...... muttered, Lin Yu still got up sleepily, yawning while rubbing his sleepy eyes.

Help the little girl get a basin of hot water so that she can wipe the sweat on her body. But it's a pity that the little girl is still too young after all, and she can't do many things. Zheng Zhishang had to bite the bullet and help the little girl wipe the sweat on her body. In other words, this is the first time Zheng Zhishang has helped the little girl scrub her body.

For so long, in addition to starting to help the little girl get dressed, and when she got dressed, the weather was not very hot, and she wore a lot. In the past few days, because of the arrival of summer, there are fewer and fewer clothes on her body, Zheng Zhishang has not helped the little girl change her clothes, and let her wear them by herself every day, or Grandma Huang will help her change her clothes.

As for taking a bath, it is impossible to wash the little girl, every day Grandma Huang helps her wash, although Zheng Zhishang also thought about waking up Grandma Huang, but in the end he still didn't go, the time was too late, it was almost eleven o'clock, at this time, Grandma Huang had already fallen asleep.

Although the little girl is still very young, but helping the little girl scrub, Zheng Zhishang is still a little awkward in his heart, and he hastily helped the little girl find a new set of pajamas and let her put them on by herself.

Lying on the bed again, letting Lin Yu stay close to him, quietly listening to the sound of rain outside the window, although it was late at night, Zheng Zhishang did not feel sleepy at all. Can't sleep at all.

"Brother ......" I don't know how long it took, Lin Yu, who was lying beside him, shouted softly.

"Hmm...... Not asleep yet? ”

"Can't sleep......"

"Uh" Zheng Zhishang was slightly stunned, but he hadn't just scrubbed his body, his fatigue and sleepiness were also scrubbed, and even after such a toss, he didn't feel sleepy at all, he sighed secretly, and said, "Then I'll tell you a story." ”

finally coaxed the little girl to sleep, and Zheng Zhishang himself was about to fall asleep in a daze.

Heaven was not beautiful, and another deafening roar and thunder came. The sleeping little girl was frightened and woke up again. made Zheng Zhishang sleepy, and couldn't help but curse this god secretly, he couldn't wait for the little girl to fall asleep and thunder.

Early the next morning, after getting up, Zheng Zhishang looked at the sleeping little girl, and couldn't bear to wake her up, but it wasn't last night, the little girl didn't sleep much, and there was lightning and thunder outside the window, wind and rain. After a night of tossing, Zheng Zhishang was also tired enough, and he couldn't sleep at all.

After eating breakfast and talking to Grandma Huang, Zheng Zhishang came to the store alone in the rain with two panda eyes and a sleepy face.

Despite the rainy day, the business in the store is still very good, and many people come to the store to eat in the rain, which is no longer the result of relying on the kind doctors and nurses of the junior Chinese medicine hospital. Seeing Zheng Zhishang, Wang Yimei also looked tired, listless, and reluctantly greeted her, saying; "Star, you're here."

"Sister Mi, didn't you sleep well last night?" Zheng Zhishang asked with concern:

Wang Qimei shook her head and said with a smile: "No, I have already done the profit statement of last month that you want to see." ”

Zheng Zhishang took the financial statement handed over by Wang Qimei, read it carefully. What is the daily marketing situation of the store, Zheng Zhishang knew at the beginning of the month.

With its own high-quality service, good taste, especially barbecue and drinks, it has continuously introduced new ones, attracting many young men and women, children to come to eat, and it is also a little famous in this piece, and it only took a month to not only collect back the principal invested by themselves, but also the liquidity on the books of the store is also extremely sufficient, no longer as when it first opened, nervous.

At the beginning, Aunt Tan Lin helped to do the meat approval, which could not meet the needs of the store for a long time, and in the end it could only be supplied in limited quantities, although many customers were dissatisfied, but everyone was considerate and understanding, and did not make trouble. Even for this reason, Zheng Zhishang raised the price when he withdrew from the new product, but in the end, Zheng Zhishang still underestimated the enthusiasm of customers.

In the end, with the help of Aunt Tan Lin, Zheng Zhishang made a larger number of approvals, and finally barely satisfied the meat supply in the store.

At this time, there was no trace of tiredness on Wang Qimei's face, and she looked at Zheng Zhishang a little nervously. I was afraid that Zheng Zhishang would not be satisfied, and asked her to redo it.

It's not Zheng Zhishang's report that he reads now, it's the fourth report that Wang Yimei has redone this month. It's not that Zheng Zhishang intends to embarrass Wang Yumei, but the first three points of the report are indeed unsatisfactory. Even Zheng Zhishang, who has not studied finance, can find a bunch of problems.

Until I heard Zheng Zhishang say: "What I did this time, I can only be regarded as qualified, I don't know a lot about finance, you have to study and study yourself." ”

Wang Yumei breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly nodded yes.

"By the way, have all the newly recruited employees been arranged?"

The business in the store is busy, and in addition to operating breakfast, lunch, and dinner, Zheng Zhishang also hopes to do the supper, which will also make Wang Yimei, Chen Xiaonan, Hong Aiyue and other original nine people, extremely heavy work, and there is not much time to study every day.

After some consideration and research. Today's nine people have also been on track after this period of study and practice, Sammo Hung and Yu Mei can also cook alone, and Zheng Fang, Wu Jinfeng, and Wang Ximei, who studied with Wang Qimei, have also achieved some results.

Zheng Zhishang finally decided to recruit a group of employees, disrupting the new and old employees, and dividing them into two shifts. With two shifts, even if you start with a late-night snack, no one will only work nine hours a day, and there will be plenty of time to rest and study.

Although the working hours have been reduced, the wages of a single pair have not been reduced, which makes the nine people happy, and Wang Yimei even joked with Zheng Zhishang, saying: "Xingxing, you are like a capitalist, we have an easier time to work than to work in a factory, and we have one day off every week." ”

Wang Yumei nodded and said, "It's all arranged, the counter, Jin Feng and Zheng Fang have both learned how to do it, and the two of them can be completely responsible." ”

Zheng Zhishang nodded and said: "For the specific work, you can discuss it with Sister Xiaonan and Sister Aiyue, and the three of you should also hurry up for the training of all employees, I plan to open the first branch within this year." ”

Hearing Zheng Zhishang's words, Wang Yimei couldn't help but be stunned, but she was also excited in her heart, the branch, I didn't expect that the branch would be ready for less than two months after it opened. While rejoicing, he couldn't help but be a little worried, and said, "Xingxing, will this be too fast." ”

Zheng Zhishang shook his head and said: "Now we have to seize the market as soon as possible, and when there are more people in the future, the competitive pressure will be great, and the sooner we take the lead in the market, the more beneficial it will be for us." ”

Wang Qimei nodded and asked, "Xingxing, where are we opening the first branch?" ”

Zheng Zhishang thought for a while and said: "You and Sister Xiaonan and Sister Aiyue are responsible for this matter, Sister Jinfeng, Sister Zheng Fang, Brother Jinbao, Brother Degui, Sister Yu Mei, and Sister Ximei They cooperate with the three of you, go to every place in Xiamen to see, investigate, and get results, and also write a report and hand it to me." ”

Wang Qimei nodded, she was used to Zheng Zhishang's way of working, although it was just a restaurant, Zheng Zhishang never listened to oral reports, only read written reports, and asked questions while reading the reports.

"I'll give you two months to do this, and in two months, I'm going to see your first report." Zheng Zhishang added:

After hesitating for a while, Wang Qimei looked at Zheng Zhishang and said, "Xingxing, you haven't come to the store in the past few days, there are a few joint defense guards, who came to the store and asked us to ......."

"Hmm" Zheng Zhishang's brows were furrowed, but he was also angry in his heart, and said, "Do you pay protection money?" ”

The so-called joint defense officers, in fact, are also public officials, subordinate to the police station of the Public Security Bureau, and are just a group of non-staff personnel who are idle in society, trust relationships, and go through the back door. In this era, it can be said to be very remarkable, although it is only a group of supernumerary personnel, it can be regarded as a law enforcement officer.

Not to mention the 21 st century, a relatively complete legal system has been established. The well-known chengguan has not often caused some scandals. Not to mention that in this era when the legal system is not yet perfect, even if they are asked to enforce the law according to the law, there must be a law to follow.

It is better to say that they are supernumerary joint defense personnel, but it is better to say that they are underworld forces and a cancer in society. However, in the eyes of ordinary people, they are officials, and they often act as prestige on the street.

Although they have been bullied a lot, and although they are dissatisfied with them in their hearts, no one really dares to care about them. Not to mention the present, even in the previous life, the situation was only in the 21st century, and it has not changed much, unless the problem is found from above and it is stabbed to a higher department.

Otherwise, the local people, even if they knew, would not complain. The phrase "officials protect each other" is not unreasonable, and the one who can become a public official does not have a little relationship.

Wang Qimei nodded, looked at Zheng Zhishang's uncertain face, and reminded in a low voice: "These people are not easy to mess with, they have all ...... them to open shops and do business."

"Pay them protection money, do you want to buy peace?" didn't wait for Wang Yimei to finish speaking, Zheng Zhishang mentioned Wang Qimei and said it.
