Episode 37 People in the Rivers and Lakes (28) Jade Battle (I)
As the saying goes, "money can make ghosts push ghosts", in recent years, on the basis of this sentence, and invented, "money can make grinding ghosts" The saying that "money can make ghosts push ghosts" is often inspired by money, there will be unprecedented effects that are unexpected in advance, Guo Kaixin's "Lihua Hotel" is like this.
For the kitchen led by Zhuang Shifu, the three shareholders of 'Lihua' are in place, Zhuang Jingxian does not have the remuneration of white-collar workers, under his personal command, the dishes of the kitchen are on a new level, he originally accepted several older apprentices, who were originally working in several big hotels in City A, this time they jumped to 'Lihua', and the craftsmanship was also brought over, when some guests ate the exclusive dishes of other big hotels from 'Lihua', they felt that the dishes of 'Lihua' were more flavorful and more ' to the next level'.
Zhuang Shifu is a face-saving person, he doesn't want the apprentices to say that he is behind his back, although he also needs funds to open a store in the future, but he still gave Guan Yue an extra two percent to him, and gave it to the apprentices equally, Zhuang Shifu's great benevolence and righteousness also established his status in the food industry of City A more than ten years later, at that time, the three major shareholders of "Lihua" all withdrew, and dedicated the "Lihua Hotel" to Zhuang Shifu, and at that time, "Lihua" was renamed "Fulihua", becoming the most famous hotel in City A.
Got the back kitchen, the rest of the front desk service, it has become the focus of the work, fortunately, the company's vice president has many years of experience in managing the hotel, plus the teachers of the business school from time to time training, the quality of the service personnel, has also been greatly improved, it is worth mentioning that when some guests asked, "there is no escort service", the lobby manager will always refuse, "we are just eating here, nothing else", "Lihua Hotel" purity. Since then, it has started in City A.
Originally, the cost of consumption in the big hotel, in 'Lihua' can eat twice, and the dishes and taste are almost the same, naturally the guests took the initiative to come to the door, coupled with Guo Kaiying and Guan Yue's connections, 'Lihua' can be said to be a daily gold, not to be seen, because of its location, not close to any famous hotel in City A, nor can it be said to have taken away other people's customers. Even when Liu Sheng's 'Jihong Hotel' account reported to him that the turnover had dropped this month, Liu Sheng only smiled slightly, and now he looked down on the hotel's income at all.
After the large-scale entry of the 'Jihong Branch' in the small county's 'jade mining' business, a situation of 'three kingdoms' was formed, and the local businessmen in the small county headed by Boss Xie first carried out an effective attack on the 'Jihong Branch'. It didn't take long for the prescient 'Beijing merchants' to be in the main mining area of the 'Jihong Branch', as if they had discussed it with Boss Xie. They carried out land enclosure and purchased all the land in other villages on the left and right of their village, and the price rose to 800 yuan per acre. Coupled with the 'lai see money' in the province and county, it has reached 1,000 yuan per acre of land.
Lao Fu was originally arranged to be a 'stall watchman' in a small county, but he saw that he could no longer dominate the situation. I went to Liu Sheng overnight to make a report, and in desperation, I had to trouble Lao Fu to go to a small county, but now Lao Fu's wife's condition is quite serious, and the old couple has no children, which makes Liu Shengwei a dilemma in making this decision.
"Let him go, the company's affairs are important, he stays with me, and I won't be much better, your company can send me someone, preferably a woman," Lao Fu's wife is due to the old illness that fell during the turmoil, and has not been effectively treated, even if Lao Fu has money in recent years, but it is too late, and he can only insist on recovery treatment, and the hospital gives the saying, 'This disease will have half a year at most.' ’
"Auntie, don't worry about this, I will arrange three people for you, three shifts, I will definitely be able to take care of you," the high-level cadre ward of the Army General Hospital in City A, Liu Sheng has a way, in order to facilitate the care of medical personnel, he is looking for a room close to the 'nurse's station', this room is very spacious, facing south, the sun shines a lot, there is a separate bathroom in the house, and there is a 20-inch large color TV.
"I said Shengzi, you have arranged it very well, you are all busy, don't run to me if you have nothing to do, my old man is stronger than me, he can help you work for a few more years, if one day I am gone, you have to be worthy of him, the old man has helped you for so many years, it can be said that he has done his best," the old lady said to Liu Sheng, and shed a few tears, which can be called 'a man is dying, and his words are also good'.
"What are you talking about, I'm leaving, you can do it alone," Lao Fu naturally knows the importance of the small county of Ludao Road, and the current investment of 'Jihong Company' is more than six or seven million, if it is not handled well, it is possible that 'Jihong Company' will go downhill, so he can't go.
"You've been arguing around my ears all day long, you should go quickly, go quieter," the old lady twisted her head to the side against the wall, she didn't want her wife to go in her heart, but she couldn't help it, the small county had to pay for it.
On the day when Lao Fu went to the small county, Liu Sheng specially invited three retired nurses with medical experience to take care of Lao Fu's wife 24 hours a day. ’
"Jihong company" in the mid-eighties of the last century, known as assets of hundreds of millions, but most of these assets are industrial, such as cinemas, video halls, video game halls, karaoke halls, restaurants, etc., the real cash flow, that is, about tens of millions, for the jade business, the board of directors held several meetings, and finally agreed to invest tens of millions of funds into the small county, but also optimistic about the development prospects of the "local jade", and now the "small county branch" let two powerful opponents carry out' Sniper', Lao Fu was also very angry, he did not go directly to the location of the branch, but went directly to the village, he asked for first-hand 'intelligence'.
"Mr. Fu, you can come," the person in charge of the command is a deputy general manager of 'Kandui', who is about thirty years old, a top student from a famous university in China, and an assistant who Lao Fu has pulled up.
"What's going on?" Lao Fu looked at the materials that had been sorted out and asked about the current situation.
"These B's are crazy, keep enclosing the land to mine jade, the forklifts and bulldozers we hired before, have made them pry away at a high price, some of them are said that the price is high, let us add money, some say that the equipment is going to be pulled back for maintenance, anyway, there are only half of the people who can work."
"Is there any equipment from the provincial capital?"
"That's not true, it's all hired, it's from prefecture-level cities, and people from the province have asked, but they all said that they didn't leave because of Mr. Liu's face, anyway, even if they stayed, they didn't work hard, and the driver wanted this, and he wanted that, and he would blindly command people."
"What about the drivers of the construction company we bought, how are they doing?"
"What can they do, they are driving double wages, which is much higher than those who left, and they are all working hard."
"That's good, listen to me, immediately stop all the equipment that is not our company, say that we can't afford to pay for it, we can't afford to use them, let them go, leave immediately," Lao Fu finished reading the document, sat on the chair, lit a cigarette, and took a big puff.
"Ah, Mr. Fu, this is not good, we have such a big piece of land, and now the village is still urging us to turn over the land every day, they say that they are still waiting to grow food next spring, our company has only a dozen cars, if we do this, we can't finish it in a few years."
"Do it, by the way, you have the final say in the village, invite me in the evening, and prepare some good wine and food, and I will talk to them."
"I'm so tired," Lao Fu sat in command, and the people in the office also had the backbone, and the big guy was busy preparing everything according to Lao Fu's arrangement. (To be continued......)
