After attending the end of the year from the five-star hotel in Donghai City, Lu Yao instructed the driver of the bus to send Lu Minghai and the others back to Xiasha Village first, while he and Su Jingya stayed in the provincial capital.

Since she has already come, she naturally can't leave immediately, and she has to go to see Situ Manqing, otherwise she will be angry if she knows that she is here and doesn't look at her.

It just so happened that Lu Yao bought a villa next door to Situ Manqing, so he didn't have to worry about having no place to sleep.

In addition, he still has something to ask Situ Manqing, this is about to be the New Year, and the villa has to find someone to clean it all, Lu Yao and his wife have no time to come over, so they can only come forward by Situ Manqing.

Driving back to his villa, Situ Manqing had already received a call from them and was waiting at home early.

Because it was a buffet at noon, the meal time was relatively long, so Lu Yao and Su Jingya were not very hungry in the evening, and Situ Manqing also came back from the hotel in the afternoon, and after afternoon tea, she was not very hungry.

In the evening, the four of them cooked a bowl of noodles casually and ate some casually, while the three of them were watching TV with a bowl of noodles without any image, while still chatting.

"Brother Yao, I have already asked the financial side to count the income of the previous few months a few days ago, and your dividends plus the payment for the purchase of the best seafood are a total of 3.79 million, when do you think it will be given to you?"

Situ Manqing took a sip of noodle soup and asked casually.

Lu Yao was different, he gulped down the noodles, and while watching the news on the TV, he didn't care and said: "I'm not short of money for the time being, you can continue to use the money to invest in the hotel." ”

"It just so happened that the last time you bought the shares, you helped pay it out, and then my dividends will help me repay, in addition, the Manqing Hotel is constantly expanding, and there are still a lot of places to use the money, and I don't expect dividends in recent years. ”

Situ Manqing drank the last mouthful of noodle soup, put down the rice bowl, pulled a napkin and gently wiped the corners of his mouth, looked at Lu Yao and said with a smile: "Brother Yao, you are quite conscious." Sister is not polite to you, now is indeed the time for lack of money. ”

Speaking of which, Lu Yao has a lot of money in hand now, but he has more places to spend money, and he has no way to continue to invest in Manqing Hotel, so he can only choose not to pay dividends for the time being.

Later, a few people chatted about the next development plan of Manqing Hotel, and Lu Yao advised Situ Manqing to slow down the pace of development for the time being, not too fast, so as not to be unable to keep up with the supply of the best seafood on his side.

"Sister Man Qing, I have asked the general manager of the company to look for a ranch overseas, and the company's involvement will be wider and wider, and the food that can be supplied to the hotel will also be more and more. ”

"I suggest that you don't cooperate with others to develop hotels for the time being, because the reputation of Manching Hotel is not enough now, and it will be more difficult to negotiate terms with others now. ”

"Let's continue to get a piece of land in the provincial capital first, rebuild a five-star hotel, and wait for others to come to the door to ask for cooperation, so that we can dominate. ”

Situ Manqing showed a thoughtful expression and nodded slowly: "What you said also makes sense, it's because I've been too inflated recently. If we don't have the best seafood you provide, we don't have any advantage in cooperating with others to build a hotel. ”

"Whew," she exhaled heavily, her eyes were a little unwilling, after waiting for so many years, she finally had a good opportunity in front of her, she thought she could turn over quickly, but she didn't expect to have to figure it slowly.

Lu Yao smiled and comforted her: "Sister Manqing, don't worry, our company's fishing ground is under construction, and it can be supplied in large quantities in a year or two at most." You can take advantage of this time to lay a good foundation, and then you can ride the wind. ”

To put it bluntly, the main focus of this Manqing Hotel is still catering, as long as the name of the high-end seafood restaurant is launched, there is no need to worry about bad business.

"Now what we have to do is to recruit more people to train, and in addition to the hotel's other supporting services, we must also keep up. After all, what you want to do is a hotel, not a restaurant. ”

As soon as Lu Yao's words came out, Situ Manqing suddenly woke up, and she felt that she was a little misguided, thinking that the hotel had made a lot of money in the past few months, but she didn't think that eighty percent of the profits were supported by the restaurant.

This is a deformity for the development of a hotel, and I am afraid that when the time comes, I will not be able to pass the five-star rating.

Situ Manqing said with palpitations: "Brother Yao, thanks to you for waking up my sister this time, I know what to do next, I can't be too anxious, I have to get the hotel accommodation together." ”

"Only when both legs are strong and powerful can you stride forward. Otherwise, even if I do a good job, no one else will think that the Manching Hotel is a good hotel. ”

"Hehe, Sister Manqing, it's best that you can think like this. Forget it, let's not talk about work, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so we have to relax. Sister Manqing, where are you celebrating the New Year this year?" Lu Yao asked as he changed the subject.

Situ Manqing said with a smile: "Of course I have been with my father, he is older now, he had a car accident last time, and his health is getting worse and worse, one more year is one year less, and I have more time to accompany him." ”

Lu Yao nodded and said, "Well, it's good to spend more time with your family." Isn't my uncle's body healed yet? Is he still worried about the Haisha Gang?"

Situ Manqing sighed: "I persuaded him to let go several times, but he didn't listen, saying that it was his life's work, and the key was that he wanted me to inherit it, so I didn't agree, so I had to let him go." ”

Lu Yao was silent, and only shook his head for a long time and said: "Sister Manqing, if you want your uncle to have peace in his old age, it's best to get rid of the entire Haisha Gang's affairs, and next year there will be an anti-crime operation across the country, and the Haisha Gang will be implicated." ”

If Situ Nanken had listened to his own persuasion a few months earlier and immediately washed the Haisha Gang ashore, maybe there would have been time, but he was indifferent until now, obviously taking his words as the wind in his ears, and Lu Yao would not bother to care anymore.

As long as Situ Manqing is not implicated, otherwise he will have to find a way to rescue her.

Thinking of this, Lu Yao asked: "Sister Manqing, you have nothing to do with the Haisha Gang, right? ”

Situ Manqing said with a smile: "Don't worry, except for a position in the East Bay International Seafood Trade Market, responsible for sales management, I didn't have a temporary position in the Haisha Gang. ”

"Although the Haisha Gang is in charge of the trade market, the trade market itself is still very innocent, otherwise it would not be possible for so many merchants to move in. ”

Lu Yao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "That's good, but since you have decided to shift your focus to making a hotel now, let the trade market completely let go." ”

Situ Manqing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”
