Chapter 54: Unhappy
"yes. I stole half a day of leisure, and I just sat and wanted to read a book for a while, but I didn't expect to take a nap accidentally. He smiled, and it always felt strange to talk to the future. He was an elder at her age, but he felt like she was talking to him like an adult.
"Hello uncle, I am the owner of this house, my name is Xia Wenxiong. I've lived next door for so long, and I haven't officially said hello to my uncle. ”
Seeing the old man staring at him burningly, he often traveled around on business, and he didn't know who lived in the neighborhood, and he didn't have the opportunity to stop and talk to each other like this.
"My surname is Chen, you can call me Old Man Chen." Old man Chen pursed his mouth and glared at Xia Wenxiong. Who is your uncle, you don't necessarily have to be much younger than me, right? "Who are you? Do you own a bar? ”
"I didn't run a bar, I just ran a restaurant." Xia Wenxiong didn't take his attitude to heart, the old man seemed to be faintly hostile to him, and he found it amusing and inexplicable. "This little girl went to my restaurant last time to sell wine, made a beer chicken wings or fried chicken wings, my son has been thinking about it after eating, I originally wanted her to make it for me to taste, if it is really delicious, maybe I will consider signing a big order with her, who knows that she turned around and ran away. It seems that we are quite fated, but I didn't expect to meet here. ”
"I'm sorry, I asked this little girl to come to my house as a guest today, I remember that I still have something to say to him, that, I'll visit you again, let's have two drinks together!" Old Man Chen arched his hand towards Xia Wenxiong in a humble manner, and his tone seemed to erupt from his nostrils. It doesn't matter if Xia Wenxiong understands it or not. He just finished what he wanted to say in one go, turned his head and shouted, "Future girl." Come in with me, I have something to ask you! ”
Future glanced at Xia Wenxiong quickly. Then he withdrew his eyes, responded to Old Man Chen, and raised his feet and followed him towards the fence in the backyard.
Tie Keng, who was a few steps behind the future, stepped forward and looked at Xia Wenxiong steadily. He had met Xia Wenxiong on the day he first joined the company, but he hadn't spoken to the other party yet, and the other party obviously didn't know him yet.
He wondered if he should say hello to Xia Wenxiong, even though he was about to leave the Invitation Moon Building, Ben was the first friend he made after coming to G City, from this point of view. He is Xia Wenxiong's junior.
Wouldn't he be embarrassed if he accidentally met Ben because of him next time?
So, he opened his mouth and was about to greet him, but he didn't expect the other party's mobile phone to ring suddenly, Xia Wenxiong nodded at him, reached out and took the phone from his trouser pocket, pressed the answer button, and turned around and walked away while answering the phone.
Tie Keng smiled. Then he scratched his head with his hand, well, he is not to blame.
Turning around, he trotted towards the backyard of the house. Old man Chen called the future in with an unkind face, what did he want to say?
"You're in a hurry to go back and sell beer right now?" In the living room, Old Man Chen walked around with his hands behind his back. While questioning Zhang Future, "Tell me about it." How much money you can make by selling beer for a day, I'll pay you! Wrong. What kind of beer are you selling, you tell me, I'll make a few calls to my customers, how much stock do you have, and I'll clear it all for you! ”
"Huh?" Although Future was frightened by his tone, he couldn't help but feel happy when he heard him swear that he would help clear the inventory. In this way, she even solved the matter of Song Ding, and now she really threw away all the baggage and did her own thing. Since he said that he is making condiments, most of the customers are restaurants and restaurants, so he doesn't think it's a lie.
"Ahh Chen Zhuzi looked very angry, "If you ask you to follow me, you won't, just for a few bottles of broken beer, you run away." You sell beer, you sell beer, what else do you give people to eat? Since you have good cooking skills, wouldn't it be good to open a restaurant by yourself, and what kind of beer you want to sell at that time is not your word? Aren't you putting the cart before the horse? In vain, I think you are a smart person, it turns out that you also have times when you are confused and stupid! ”
In the future, she scolded her so much that she covered her head and brain, but she felt that this somewhat childish old man was cute and cute. So instead of being dejected or frightened and ashamed as he had imagined, she looked at him with sparkling eyes and interest.
"What are you doing? What's your expression? After the old man Chen finished speaking, he saw that the future not only did not wake up, but had a hippie smile, and he was even more angry, "I scolded you, you are very happy!" ”
"You scold me, it means you care about me! If it's an irrelevant person, it doesn't matter if you're smart or stupid. Future hugged the pillow on the sofa, wrinkled his nose and pretended to be cute and coquettish, "Uncle Chen thinks I've been wronged, so he's helping me fight the grievances, right?" ”
"Hmph, it's good if you know the way!" Chen Zhuzi snorted coldly, but instantly swept away the gloom on his face, leaned over and asked, "What kind of beer chicken wings did that guy say just now?" What did you cook for his family? You can do it for me, too! How many beers are you going to empty, tell me, don't think that you are the only one who can do it, I will show you today that I am not a vegetarian! Tell me, what brand of beer, how much does it cost, and how much stock is there? ”
Future's face was overjoyed, but he saw that Tie Keng had already walked in, and he deliberately stepped on his footsteps very loudly, and his enthusiasm for the future was immediately diluted, "Uncle Chen, will this make you owe others favors?" ”
"I owe a favor, that's my business, you don't have to worry about it!" Chen Zhuzi shook his head again and again, looking unconcerned.
"That's it, Uncle Chen, because this beer I make is not a well-known brand, and I don't want to make it difficult for you. I'll bring a bottle of wine tomorrow, and you'll decide after you've drunk it, I'll come back tomorrow to make you dinner, okay?" Future felt more and more that this old man was really cute, and she couldn't bear to let him down too much.
"Well, that's fine, instead of enjoying the blessings of the mouth today, it is better to separate and enjoy it every day." Chen Zhuzi probably felt that he was a little impulsive, and since he said so in the future, he said smoothly, "Then I said it, you must come tomorrow, by the way, you call me then, and I will send a car to pick you up." Alas, this is too inconvenient, or you can get a driver's license quickly, and I'll send you a trolley. ”
"I appreciate your kindness, so it's better to wait until I make money to buy a car myself." Future politely declined his proposal and said confidently.
"Ambitious!" Chen Zhuzi gave her a thumbs up, "Just make it your first life goal!" ”
After a few more jokes, the future and Tie Keng said goodbye and left, Chen Zhuzi asked the driver to drive them back, the future was in a hurry to do something, but did not refuse this proposal.
First, he sent Tie Keng back to the Invitation Moon Building, and in the future, he went to prepare to rent an office.
Tie Keng got out of the car, waved goodbye to the future, and the car slowly started and quickly drove away from the spot. He watched the car move away from afar, then retracted his gaze and turned to step onto the steps of the restaurant.
Now that he has decided to advance and retreat with the future, he must be ready to leave. Before looking for Manager Cheng to resign, he also had to ask Assistant Yang in the purchasing department if he had heard of the condiment of the brand "Tianxiang". After inquiry, I learned that the name of "Tianxiang" is still very loud, the Chen family started with food spices, or agents or mergers of all kinds of peripheral condiments, and successfully seized more than half of the catering market in southern cities, their products are only provided to major restaurants and restaurants, but not often in the ordinary market, these restaurants are not only their distributors, but also their retail clients, his unique spice recipe is not only the secret weapon of the hotel, but also for him to ensure a stable source of customers (or distribution base). Also because of this special recipe, the price of Tianxiang brand condiments is slightly higher than that of ordinary condiments, and his customer base is also concentrated in mid-to-high-end restaurants. Because Tianxiang does not have a price advantage, Yingyuelou did not make bulk purchases, but only selectively purchased a few necessary products.
When asked about Chen Zhuzi and his person, Assistant Yang told him that Chen Zhuzi is the founder of Tianxiang and the current chairman of Tianxiang Group, because his name is special and approachable, and it is easy for people to remember him.
Hearing Assistant Yang say this, the doubts in Tie Keng's heart were also dispelled. Chen Zhuzi's ability to achieve today's scale shows that his vision and courage are unusual, so he sees the potential of the company in the future.
After inquiring about the matter, he went to the manager's office to find Manager Cheng to resign.
As soon as he heard that he was going to resign, Manager Cheng was surprised: "Did you ask for leave today to interview for a new job?" Where are you going to go to high school? Didn't you say you wanted to see Mr. Xia? Wait a minute, Mr. Xia is going to come over. ”
"No need now, the matter has been settled." He smiled gratefully, "Xie Lu Xie Cheng took care of me during this time, I know that I am a little sudden, I can do it for a few more days, and I will leave when you recruit people." ”
As long as you post a recruitment notice, it is not difficult to recruit people, this industry is the most liquid industry, it is easy to recruit people, but it is also the most difficult to retain people.
Manager Cheng has long been accustomed to this kind of coming and going, and he will not have much regret and nostalgia for any employees who have the intention of going, but it was not long after Tie Keng came, but he was very pleased with Ben, and he just looked at Tie Keng differently. And he also boldly speculated that because he knew Ben's identity, Tie Keng deliberately curried favor with Ben, otherwise, he repeatedly asked to meet Xia Wenxiong for what?
"Are you sure?" Manager Cheng confirmed to him, "Ben still doesn't know what to do, right?" Didn't you promise to go to his house for his birthday party last time? ”
"Even if I quit, I'm just as good a friend as Ben." It's not a conflict at all. "If I could see him before I left, I would say goodbye to him personally; If you can't see him, please tell him, I will definitely go to his birthday party. ”
"Uh, okay!" Manager Cheng saw that he had made up his mind, so he didn't keep it anymore, and nodded and agreed to his request. Thinking of the incident last time, he suddenly asked again, "By the way, what is the relationship between you and that Zhang Future?" (To be continued......)
