Chapter 189: Breaking Up
(Jingzhou Past Events Exchange Group: 290116110)
After lunch, everyone dispersed.
Qiao Yong drove back to Changdong County.
Wang Qiao stayed at the Tucai Restaurant, preparing to spend a rare leisure weekend in Shannan.
A new tea table was added to the office of the local restaurant, and Ai Min skillfully brewed Tieguanyin and placed the small cup in front of Wang Qiao.
Emin said, "If you don't come today, I'm going to call you." When she said this, she finally made up her mind to side with the laid-off old sisters, a decision made after a long period of torture, and her tone was a little serious.
Wang Qiao drank with his teacher and brother, a little excited, but still noticed that Emin's demeanor was different from usual. Some of the things that Lu Yifan said in advance made him a little prepared. He deliberately pretended not to know anything, and said with a smile: "After so many years of cooperation, I believe in you." Now that I work in Changdong County, it is impossible to reconcile the accounts every week, or even every month, I think it will be reconciled once every six months or quarters in the future. β
Emin shook his head and said, "It's not a matter of reconciliation, but the old restaurant can't go on." This year, the university will expand its enrollment, and the campus of Shandong University will be expanded, otherwise it will not be able to accommodate so many college students. The plan approved by the Shannan municipal government is to expand on the spot, and the old restaurant is among the demolition. We had a good relationship with the landlord for a few years, and she came to say hello early and let us get ready for the move. β
Wang Qiao said: "Nowadays, universities are expanding their enrollment, and it is reasonable to demolish them. We can rebuild a restaurant outside of the school's relocation and replicate the experience of the old restaurant. The main source of customers is still there, and business should be able to work. β
Emin stopped talking and took a sip of tea. said calmly: "Since Brother Man came over today, we will settle this year's account." I hired a professional accountant. The total assets and debts of the restaurant were thoroughly sorted out. β
Hearing this, Wang Qiao knew that Emin had finally made up his mind. So he stopped going around the bend and said, "You mean that you don't want to be a local restaurant anymore, and finally make a general account?" β
Ai Min said: "Everyone has been doing a local restaurant for a few years, and they are all a little tired, this house is going to be demolished, the old taste local restaurant can't be opened, and the catering company doesn't exist." Before mentioning this, she had been nervous for a long time, and now she opened her mind. Instead, I feel better.
Wang Qiao nodded and said, "It's okay." β
Emin said, "I'll bring the watch book, you read it slowly." β
During this period of time in Changdong, Wang Qiao encountered a series of tricky things. Who knew that after leaving Changdong, the mood still could not be completely relaxed. The local restaurant accompanied Wang Qiao's college career and was a part of his youth. Every time I think of what happened at the local restaurant, I feel warm, and now all this will disappear with the demolition. He suddenly felt a little upset, and said, "I'll take a nap first, and I'll take time to watch it in the afternoon." β
The third-floor attic room was originally his bedroom, and he originally thought that if he didn't come to live for a while, he would accumulate dust. When I entered the door, I found that the house was spotless, and it was clear that someone was cleaning up the hut every day.
Wang Qiao was lying on the bed thinking about this, carefully thinking about Ai Min's demeanor and what he said, and said, "If it weren't for Lu Yifan's reminder. I will also fall into habitual thinking, thinking that the local restaurant was invested and founded by me, and it should be mine. But. Emin and her sisters thought differently, they thought I wasn't doing anything. I have to take a lot of money every year. They are upset and want to go it alone. It's also understandable. β
"Emin and her sisters' only skill for a living is to open a restaurant, and they still have to open a restaurant, they just don't want to partner with me anymore. If the two sides were to swap places, maybe I would have thought the same thing. β
Wang Qiao lay on the bed blowing the cool breeze, and continued to think: "Now that Emin and her sisters have the technology, channels, experience, and funds, why should they send me money for nothing, since the local restaurant is going to be demolished, they take the opportunity to do it alone, this is really human nature." My investment has long paid for itself, and I have made a lot of money, and since they have centrifugation, let's get together and disperse. β
After figuring it out, he could sleep.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Qiao came to the office downstairs.
Emin took out a stack of tables and said, "This is the old financial report, you can take a look." β
Wang Qiao said: "Sister Du, the watch book is too long, I won't read it carefully." β
"Restaurants also have a lot of assets, both tangible and intangible. β
Wang Qiao interrupted: "The cooperation between the two of us depends on mutual trust, I will not do the catering industry in the future, it is useless to take these things, you directly calculate the money for me, I will take the money and leave, so that it is convenient for everyone." β
This is also the result that Emin hopes for the most. She fiddled with the abacus for a while, wrote a number, and handed it to Wang Qiao.
Wang Qiao nodded.
Emin was completely relieved and said apologetically, "Brother Man, I'm sorry. β
The distribution results were not thin for Wang Qiao, which made Wang Qiao feel that Ai Min was indeed a kind and good person, and he said sincerely: "There is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed, so it is good to gather and disperse." Everyone has their own interests to choose from, not to mention that you also have a bunch of old sisters, which is normal. What's next for you? β
Emin told the truth: "Our group of people can only do catering, and we will find a place to cook restaurants in the future." She looked at the restaurant where she had spent countless efforts, and said: "Tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans can still come in handy, but the decoration can't be taken away, it's a pity." β
Wang Qiao said: "The things in the pavilion on the third floor are temporarily left for me, and when the time is lifted, I will move out." Seeing Ai Min's expression, he was somewhat embarrassed, and joked: "In the evening, I will invite Fat Dun and Qingpi to prepare some special dishes, whether to pay cash or hang the bill." By the way, when you open a restaurant in the future, you can still use the old taste. β
Ai Min said: "Brother Man really sees the outside world when he says this, I pay for the dinner, it's free." β
After talking about business, Wang Qiao went upstairs.
Several old girls had been watching outside, gathering around Emin's office to inquire about the outcome of the negotiations. Emin said gloomily: "I told you a long time ago, Brother Barbarian is a good person, you live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and he didn't care about us at all." β
An old sister who participated in the creation of the old taste local restaurant said: "Why did he take hundreds of thousands, in the past few years, our sisters have helped him do it, he is a capitalist who does not work." Without us, he wouldn't have made a penny. β
Emin said, "You can't think like that. The old taste of the local restaurant is a partnership. Brother Man contributed the most, and it was natural for him to take money according to the proportion of shares. The early days of entrepreneurship. He found the house and the name of the restaurant. Many channels are also pulled by him, and without him, this company would definitely not exist. Don't forget to dig wells, and when our business improves, we drove the founder away, and I feel a little sorry for him. β
An old sister said: "Ai Min is kind, Brother Man invested tens of thousands of yuan and took away hundreds of thousands, and a few of us worked hard to help him do it for a few years, worthy of him." β
Emin thought about the past. "Without him, we would still be opening a small restaurant in Jingzhou." β
Since Wang Qiao graduated from University and left Shannan University, the old sisters who used to be shareholders often clamored to stand on their own. This time when she encountered the demolition, Emin felt that this was an opportunity not to offend Wang Qiao and unite the old sisters, so she agreed to stand on her own.
An old sister walked over from outside the door and said happily: "I have got the key to the faΓ§ade, and I can decorate and make signboards tomorrow." A month later our new restaurant could open, and we went to pick up an auspicious name. β
Ai Min said: "Don't change the name of the restaurant, Brother Man will let us continue to use the old taste of local cuisine." β
The sisters were a little surprised, and one of them said, "Brother Man is so easy to talk to." β
Emin said: "He is an emotional person. He has his own career and doesn't want to compete with a group of us, and many of our ideas are wild. β
Wang Qiao is the largest investor. The investment has already been recovered more than ten times. Nowadays, the management team wants to stand on its own, and the best attitude is that it will rain and the mother will get married. Let them go. In fact, even if you are calculating, people's hearts are scattered. It's not interesting either. He took his helmet downstairs and scrubbed his new one-year-old motorcycle clean.
Emin stood by the window and watched Wang Qiao ride his motorcycle to the campus of Shandong University. She couldn't help but recall the first time she met Wang Qiao in a roadside shop outside Changdong City, and sighed again and again.
About half an hour, Wang Qiao rode his motorcycle back to the old taste local restaurant, he was going to call Zhao Bo, who was guarding the Shandong University, to have dinner together, but the video studio and rental room were closed, and Zhao Bo was nowhere to be found after searching the campus.
At six o'clock in the evening, Chen Qiang, Chen Xiuya and Du Jianguo came to the old taste local restaurant on time.
Wang Qiao's impression of Chen Qiang is still stuck in the era of Shannan No. 1 Detention Center, and in his impression, Chen Qiang is a weak and down-and-out scholar. At this time, Chen Qiang, who was standing in front of him, turned into a short-haired middle-aged man with a black and red face and a sturdy body, and his expression, temperament and body were similar to those in the detention center. If it weren't for Chen Xiuya standing beside him, Wang Qiao really couldn't believe that the person in front of him was Chen Glasses who needed his own protection.
Chen Qiang took Wang Qiao's hand, called "Brother Man", and said sincerely: "Brother Man, I reduced my sentence by one year and came out early." β
Wang Qiao patted Chen Qiang on the shoulder affectionately and said, "Old Chen, why don't you wear eyes." β
Chen Qiang said: "It's strange, I've been picking tea in the mountains for a few years, but my eyes are not myopia, and I don't wear glasses anymore after I come out." β
Chen Xiuya and Wang Qiao are college classmates, knowing that their father has a special relationship with Wang Qiao, they still feel embarrassed when they hear their father call Wang Qiao "Brother Man", and their eyes look at their boyfriend. Du Jianguo shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, expressing helplessness.
Wang Qiao glanced at Du Jianguo and said, "I am in the same class as Chen Xiuya and Du Jianguo in college, Du Jianguo is still my sworn brother, I should call you Uncle Chen to be in line with etiquette." β
Chen Qiang ignored Wang Qiao's suggestion at all, and said: "I remember all my life the time when I first entered the detention center, the detention center practiced the law of the law of the jungle, the closed environment was extremely lacking in materials, and human dignity was completely trampled on. No matter what changes happen in the future, I call you Brother Man, you call me glasses, and I sound awkward when I call Uncle Chen. β
Wang Qiao said: "I call you glasses, I'm afraid Du Jianguo and Chen Xiuya will make trouble for me." β
Chen Qiang said: "If she dares to trouble you, I will teach her a lesson." We each call each other, and we do not affect each other. β
Chen Xiuya felt embarrassed and pulled Du Jianguo outside to order. Only two roommates from Shannan No. 1 Detention Center were left in the room. Wang Qiao said: "The past is gone forever, don't think about it, what are you going to do in the future?" β
Chen Qiang said: "I didn't think about it. There was a company that wanted me to do technology, but my family meant that it was better to do a small business than to work for others. I've been wondering what I can do but build roads and bridges and pick tea. β
Wang Qiaodao: "You have worked in the Department of Transportation for so many years, and you always have some old relatives and friends, and it should be no problem to set up a company to build bridges and roads, and get some small projects." β
Chen Qiang said: "I don't tell lies in front of real people, I have been a chief engineer for many years, and I know a lot of secrets in the hall. This time I was in prison, and I didn't say a word. From this point of view, it is not a problem to find some small projects in the province, the key is that I have no capital, and I don't want to deal with those bosses anymore, which is not shallow. β
Wang Qiao said: "If you want to do business, you are the boss no matter how big or small." So change your mindset and don't look at the boss with colored glasses. If you can trust me, I'll introduce you to two partners. β
Chen Qiang said: "I must trust the people you introduced." You have to make it clear to them that I am a person who has been in prison, and don't lie to people about this, otherwise there will be a lot of conflicts in the future. β
"I'm only responsible for the introduction, and it has nothing to do with me whether you can cooperate or not." Wang Qiao has two suitable candidates in his mind, one is Zhao Hai, who is engaged in investment, and he is very likely to be willing to invest money in the road and bridge company; The second is Wang Xiao, who has been looking for something to do since giving birth to a child. He can hand over the money from the old taste local restaurant to his sister to take care of it and invest it as part of the road and bridge company.
"Brother Man's suggestion is very reasonable, let me think about it carefully." Chen Qiang said: "There is one thing I have to remind, I heard that this local restaurant was invested by Brother Man, and it was a very worthy thing to advocate when I was a college student in the past, called entrepreneurship." Now Brother Man is the leader of the urban management committee, and he has a future in politics, if he does business, he will be the target of his political enemies in the future, and then it will not be a matter of falling into the ground, but a stab in the back, and he will kill you, my lesson is too profound. β
Wang Qiao said: "The local restaurant is about to be demolished, and this matter has no impact on me." If I really want to do business in the future, I will definitely not come forward directly, but use an agent. β
Chen Qiang thought about his past and said, "If someone really wants to harm you, the agent can't believe it." β
Wang Qiao smiled: "The cobra was bitten by a snake, and all the well ropes became snakes. The times are different now than they were a few years ago, and doing business is a generous business. But thank you for the reminder, I'm in my own hands. β
Chen Qiang said: "I have been working in the transportation system for decades, and I also have a few friends who are still officials. β
