It's raining.

Chen Xu sat in the office, looking through the glass of the window, looking at the rain outside in a string, looking at it, it was like a white line.

Suddenly, a few drops of rain slapped on the glass, splashing out, forming a small droplet of water sticking to the glass, and the scene outside suddenly became blurred.

Grunt......

In the electric kettle on the coffee table, there was the sound of boiling water, and a white mist rose at the top.

There was a soft click, and the switch jumped automatically.

The gurgling sound in the kettle gradually subsided, and a plain white hand reached over, lifted the kettle, and poured hot water into a purple sand teapot containing tea leaves.

During the steaming of the water mist, the purple clay pot was filled with water, and a layer of foam floated on it.

Secretary Jin put the kettle back in its place, closed the lid of the purple clay kettle, poured two cups of tea, and said to a middle-aged man sitting on the sofa, "Mr. Chen, please use it slowly." ”

"Thank you." The middle-aged man said politely and watched her leave the office.

After the door closed, he said, "Chen Xu, you're really good here." ”

"Third uncle, don't make fun of me."

Chen Xu stood up, walked to him and sat down, and said, "I'm here, where is your office as magnificent." ”

This middle-aged man is none other than his third uncle Chen Xinyi, who has just returned from his hometown and brought him something by the way.

"I just got it there for the sake of arrogance, Ziqi always dislikes the rustic. You're a little bit smaller here, but that's what it's like to do things. In addition to the good place, the people are even better. ”

Chen Xinyi pouted outside and asked, "You found such a secretary, and your girlfriend has no opinion?" ”

Chen Xu took a sip of the teacup and said, "No, Secretary Jin was introduced by Xiyun." ”

Chen Xinyi's eyes changed a little, and he sighed and said, "Chen Xu, why didn't I find out before that you are so good at women." I've heard them say that your girlfriend looks like the big stars on TV. ”

"It's almost time, you stay for dinner, and I'll take her out to meet you." Chen Xu glanced at the time and said.

Chen Xinyi said, "Okay, that's it." ”

Then, he said what he really meant, "Last time you said on the phone, you started a company with others, and I just came here to take a look this time, by the way, how do you operate?" ”

Chen Xu suddenly realized that the third uncle was usually so busy, and he would actually make a special trip, so he asked him for business, "Which aspect do you want to know?" ”

"Actually, there have been people who want to take a stake in my supermarket before, but you also know that most of the partners in our business are not very good, not to mention that the business is yellow, and the relationship is gone. So, I didn't have that plan for a long time, and I rejected them all. ”

Chen Xu nodded, indicating that he was listening, while refilling his teacup.

"However, in the past two years, I have found that my career has stagnated, and if I want to develop, I will always encounter such and such problems, take the new store opened this time as an example, the new manager always makes mistakes, if I don't keep an eye on the store, within a few days, there will be problems. However, if it were someone else, I was not at ease. ”

"It's the same with other things, I can't do it alone, and if I leave it to others, either I can't do it well, or I just can't trust it."

"I know, it's management that can't keep up. You're young, you're smart, you've read a lot of books, and you're running a company. You are the most promising of your generation, so I have come to learn from you. ”

Chen Xu knew that he didn't say a word, and he trusted himself.

He didn't believe it, there was no one with a higher education than him around the third uncle, he just couldn't believe it, and he was worried about being deceived.

He also had the trouble that the third uncle had now, so he was particularly understandable, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Third uncle, according to the current scale, can you handle it?" ”

"Reluctantly, it's just too tired."

"What if we add another store?"

"I don't think so."

"With the current scale, will it be able to take care of it in three or five years?"

Chen Xinyi frowned and said, "What do you want to say?" ”

"Third uncle, I don't understand the profound truth. I only know that we are just ordinary people, and the brain can process so much information, and the time is so little, even if we don't eat or sleep 24 hours a day, how much can we do? So, when necessary, make trade-offs. ”

Chen Xu said calmly, "Actually, you must understand this truth." It's just that it's up to you to make a choice. ”

Chen Xinyi frowned and thought about it.

Chen Xu didn't bother him, and sat there silently drinking tea.

After a while, Chen Xinyi spoke, "You should tell me about cooperating with others to start a company." ”

Chen Xu knew that his concept could not be changed in a few words, and he did not force it, so he carefully talked to him about the negotiation with Jinyun Group.

Chen Xinyi listened from the sidelines, asking a few words from time to time.

Before you know it, it's already night.

The rain also stopped, Chen Xu booked a seat at a nearby restaurant, and made an appointment with Luo Xiyun to have dinner with the third uncle.

Originally, Chen Xu wanted him to stay overnight, but he didn't agree, saying that he had to go back to the store to watch.

Luo Xiyun went to the bathroom, and when there were only the two of them left, Chen Xinyi said, "Your girlfriend is really good, with such a look and temperament, I haven't seen a second one for so many years." You have to be kind to others. ”

"I will."

"Also, there's something I'd like to ask you to help with."

Chen Xu said, "Third uncle, if you have something to say, don't be so polite." ”

"You should have heard Ziqi say about me. I want you to help me persuade her. She's willing to listen to you now. Chen Xinyi said.

Chen Xu was surprised, "Aren't you separated from that woman?" ”

"Alas, it's hard to put into words, but in short, you have to help me with this."

Chen Xu saw that Luo Xiyun had come back and said, "I'll do my best." ”

"Please."

…………

After sending the third uncle away, Chen Xu and Luo Xiyun walked hand in hand and in the direction of the company.

"What were you talking about when I wasn't there?" Luo Xiyun asked with some curiosity.

"He found a girlfriend and asked me to persuade Qi."

"This is a good thing, it is not easy for him to bring Ziqi up alone. If you want to find a companion now, Ziqi shouldn't stop it. ”

"Ziqi didn't agree that he was with that girl."

"Girls? In your twenties? ”

"Hmm."

"Then it's no wonder."

Chen Xu was about to speak, when he was suddenly stunned, and a prompt popped up in front of his eyes, "The system update is complete, this update has loaded a large-scale Valentine's Day special event, do you want to participate?" ”

PS: This is the first shift, and there is another shift before twelve o'clock.
