After eating, Cheng Liping drove Tian Zicheng home. In the car, Tian Zicheng said unhappily: "I was fired." ”

It turned out that she was very frightened by Wang Hongqi that day, and Cheng Liping was in prison, so she was in no mood to go to work at all. Hu Yikang arranged for the personnel director to call her and verbally convey the notice of dismissal.

Cheng Liping stretched out his right hand to hold Tian Zicheng's palm and said, "Orange, I'm sorry." ”

Tian Zicheng quickly pulled out his hand and said, "Drive well." I'll be fine, just go find another job. ”

The words were relaxed, but Cheng Liping could feel the loss in Tian Zicheng's heart. In the small city of Licheng, it is not easy to find such a good job, which is why Tian Zicheng hates Hu Yikang very much but has to stay there. sent Tian Zicheng home, and watched her enter the elevator, Cheng Liping sighed silently.

Back in the brick house, Liu Weiguo was already lying on the bed and sleeping. Cheng Liping's bed was originally small, and the two of them couldn't sleep at all, and he couldn't sleep when he had something in his heart, so he just sat in the room in a daze.

Liu Weiguo asked coldly: "Have you figured out what to do?" ”

Cheng Liping smiled bitterly: "Not yet." ”

Liu Weiguo said: "Don't worry. Register a company tomorrow and let her be the boss lady. ”

Cheng Liping shook his head slowly and said, "There is no money for the time being, let's talk about it when the fish outside are sold." ”

Liu Weiguo sat up and said, "How much can those fish be sold for, 30,000 yuan is the sky." ”

Cheng Li spread his hands and said, "Take your time." ”

Liu Weiguo said: "You are a good person, but you are not good at all. ”

Liu Weiguo didn't sleep, threw Cheng Liping a cigarette, and began to talk about his plan. Buying fish fry and raising and selling fish is too low-level. According to Liu Weiguo, a large catering company should be opened, and the fish and shrimp and other products produced in the fish pond can be digested in their own store, and then a few highly skilled Sichuan chefs should be hired to ensure that the business is thriving.

Cheng Liping smiled: "I have thought about my future many times before, and I really never thought about opening a restaurant." ”

Liu Weiguo corrected word by word: "It's not a restaurant, it's a restaurant group." ”

Cheng Liping smiled, there was no interface. Liu Weiguo took out a card from the old suitcase on the ground, threw it to Cheng Liping, and said, "There are two million in it, let's go register the company tomorrow." ”

Cheng Liping was stunned and asked, "Where did the money come from?" "When he was handling a case in Deqing some time ago, he clearly knew that Liu Weiguo was poor, why did he suddenly get so much money.

Liu Weiguo said: "Xiong Dawei and they cheated me out of the money, and the government returned it to me. The civil compensation for the wife and children has not yet come down. ”

Cheng Liping gave the card to Liu Weiguo and said, "This is your money, I can't use it." ”

Liu Weiguo said with a straight face: "If you don't go to Deqing to save me, my life is gone, how can I still have this money." I only have one request, the company name is Shell, my daughter's nickname. ”

Cheng Liping no longer insisted, and calmly took the bank card handed by Liu Weiguo. Having said that, it would be too hypocritical to refuse again.

The two discussed all night, had breakfast early the next morning, and drove straight to the city to find a suitable place to start a company. It is said to be a restaurant group, but the first step must start from the hotel in order to start the first shot into the catering industry.

The housing prices in Licheng are high, and the rent of the façade house is not low, so it is difficult to find a suitable place, and the landlord opens his mouth and says that the annual rent is at least 200,000 yuan. Cheng Liping tried to lower the price, but the landlord didn't buy it at all, saying that there is no such store in this village, and it is cheap to ask you for 200,000 yuan for this location.

Liu Weiguo looked back and forth, looked at the open space outside the façade room and thought for a few minutes, before nodding to Cheng Liping, and decisively said to the landlord: "Prepare the contract, we rented." ”

The contract was signed for five years, with an annual rent of 200,000 yuan, paid once a year, and no deposit.

After signing the lease contract, Cheng Liping and Liu Weiguo came to the Licheng Industrial and Commercial Bureau together and went through the relevant procedures. A few days later, the hotel was renovated, and the approval of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau was also obtained, and Licheng Shell Catering Co., Ltd. was officially listed.

Tian Zicheng was happy for Cheng Liping in her heart, but she still couldn't accept the change from a white-collar worker in the office to a hotel proprietor. Cheng Liping was not reluctant, because the two of them had been together for a short time, and they hadn't even met each other's parents. "Then Brother Liu and I will build the hotel first," Cheng Liping said with a smile, "When it becomes bigger and stronger in the future, you will come over to help." ”

Tian Zicheng also smiled and said, "If you get bigger, go public in a group, and I'll be your secretary." ”

Liu Weiguo didn't have time to flirt with the two of them, so he sat in the office interviewing the chefs who came to apply.

Strange to say, the per capita income of Li Cheng is not high, but hard consumption such as housing prices is very high. Take the fat cook in front of him as an example, let him take the initiative to speak, and the salary he asked for was only 4,600 yuan. After tasting the food he cooked, Liu Weiguo slapped the board on the spot and said, "Xiaofang, it's you, it will officially open in two days, let's have a good rest tomorrow." ”

The chef has settled, and he has to recruit a few more apprentices and waiters. This is very easy to do, there are many young people who have dropped out of school and fooled around, and they can recruit a large group of people with a salary of 1,800 yuan. Cheng Liping personally checked the checks, picked a few boys who looked a little more honest as apprentices, and recruited a few beautiful girls as waiters.

During the recruitment process, Cheng Liping even saw an acquaintance, who was Ding Er, who sold cars in a 4S store. Seeing Cheng Liping, Ding Er touched his head awkwardly and smiled embarrassedly.

Cheng Liping called him to the office and said with a smile: "Why don't you work in the 4S store?" The bill will be issued in half a month, and the boss should pay attention to it. ”

Ding Er smiled bitterly: "He fired me, and he didn't give me a commission for selling the car." ”

Cheng Liping was a little angry, this is not clear about bullying honest people. Angry is angry, and he can't stand up for others, so he had to take Ding Er in and let him be the foreman of the hotel.

After preparing all the ingredients, drinks and other materials, Liu Weiguo found a small ironware workshop and ordered some simple grills. Cheng Liping was puzzled and asked curiously, "Brother Liu, what are you doing with these things?" ”

Liu Weiguo didn't look back, and said: "It's hot after the beginning of spring, and the fish in the fish pond are used for barbecue, and the business is better." ”

Cheng Liping sighed and said, "Brother Liu, it's really hard for you." ”

Liu Weiguo bowed his head and said: "It's good to work hard, you can forget all the past." ”

Two days later, the hotel was officially opened. Cheng Liping's social relations are very ordinary, and there are few people who come to celebrate. In addition to a few close neighbors in Chengjia Village, it is the biggest name of Du Deyong, director of the Jinsha Road Police Station. Cheng Liping didn't care about this pomp, standing at the door of the hotel and smiling to welcome the lively guests.

On the first day of the opening, all dishes were 70% off, and a dish of three fresh crucian carp was given for consumption of more than 300 yuan. As soon as the 5,000-rang firecrackers were set off, Liu Weiguo sent the fish caught from the fish pond into the kitchen, and lunch began.

After doing catering, I realized the hard work of this industry. Lunch time started at 12 o'clock and ended at 2:20 p.m., just over two hours, and everyone was busy. Cheng Liping has no experience, a group of waiters are also inexperienced, and the apprentices who deliver and report dishes are even more inexperienced, and the whole backstage is in a mess. Fortunately, Liu Weiguo was in charge and guided, so he didn't make any trouble.

The guests were gone, and Cheng Liping was eating around a large table. The fat chef's name is Lin Deyi, and Liu Weiguo nicknamed him "Conscience Chef", because such a chef's monthly salary in the south cannot be less than 10,000 yuan. Lin Deyi shook his head while eating, and said: "Boss Cheng, Boss Liu, it's not okay for us to do business like this, you two have to buy a machine, what dishes the guests order, what orders the machine makes, so that the background will be clear." Just relying on Ding Er and them shouting here, it will be all messed up after a while. ”

Liu Weiguo nodded approvingly and said with a smile: "Conscience Chef, this suggestion is very good, I'll get one when I go back." ”

Ding Er also spoke enthusiastically, saying: "Brother Cheng, let's get Alipay and WeChat payment together, we don't have so much change in our store." ”

Cheng Liping said with a smile: "We are still a small place, and these two things are not needed for the time being." I'll take care of the change later. ”

Several of the other apprentices were also excited, gossiping about it. While eating was in full swing, two thin black men walked in and shouted, "The boss is not there?" ”

Cheng Liping stood up, inexplicably shocked. He knew the person who came, and it was the subordinate of Uncle Six, the owner of the Shengshi Hotel.

The man who had been injured by Cheng Liping glared at Cheng Liping and did not speak. Another man smiled slightly and said, "Boss Cheng, the sixth uncle is here." ”

Outside the door, the door of an Audi A8 slowly opened, and the sixth uncle, dressed in light blue clothes, walked out. Cheng Liping walked up quickly, although he was very surprised, he had a smile on his face, and said, "Boss Shi, welcome." ”

The sixth uncle waved his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Cheng, congratulations, congratulations." ”

Cheng Liping took the sixth uncle to the private room on the second floor and asked with a smile, "Boss Shi, what do you want to eat?" ”

The sixth uncle shook his head and said, "I came to eat, it's nothing, I heard that you have opened, so I came here to congratulate you." ”

Cheng Liping said with a smile: "That's really thanks to Boss Shi." ”

The sixth uncle glared at Cheng Liping dissatisfied, and said, "Don't be so outward, call the sixth uncle." ”

Cheng Liping became more and more surprised in his heart, he thought that he didn't have much friendship with the sixth uncle, how could he look at the appearance of the sixth uncle and want to kiss him. Cheng Liping didn't want to deal with this kind of person from the bottom of his heart, but he couldn't refuse directly, so he told a lie euphemistically and said, "I'm sorry, Boss Shi, my sixth uncle just passed away not long ago." Chengjia Village demolition, you must have heard of it. ”

Cheng Liping refers to the old Uncle Cheng, although in terms of age, he is not the sixth uncle. But the sixth uncle didn't know, nodded when he heard the words, and said, "Well, I've heard of it." That demolition was not small. By the way, your sixth uncle's kid is still running away now, isn't he? ”

Cheng Liping nodded and said, "Yes, I haven't been in touch." ”

The sixth uncle pondered for a while, and sighed: "He is also a ruthless character, he has such a big battle with the police in the cemetery, I have lived in Licheng for decades, and I really haven't seen it." ”

Cheng Liping was a little impatient, he didn't believe that the sixth uncle came to congratulate him on purpose, and he didn't have any friendship with him, on the contrary, there was a small contradiction. He was so kind to congratulate him, but there was a pit behind him.

Seeing that Cheng Liping didn't talk about it, the sixth uncle finally stopped going around in circles, and said with a smile: "Boss Cheng, I came here today to bring you a message in the middle." Chen Dufan, the boss of the Field Building, has a bit of a holiday with you, right? ”

Cheng Liping nodded neatly and said, "Yes." ”

The sixth uncle said: "Boss Cheng, it's not that the sixth uncle said you, you can fight so well, you can't find a second one on Licheng Road." If you can work with Mr. Chen, you will be able to become the king in half a month, half a month. ”

Cheng Liping said with a smile: "I don't want to mix in the road, just like you, Uncle Six, it's good to live a simple life." ”

The sixth uncle looked directly at Cheng Liping's eyes, as if he wanted to see if what Cheng Liping said was true. It's a pity that Cheng Liping's eyes didn't have a trace of nervousness. The sixth uncle smiled, his smile was a little unfathomable, and said, "Since this is the case, then I will rest assured." ”
