27 Great

Yang Zheng came to the hotel where Lao Zhang worked at half past eight.

Although it was past the meal, there was an endless stream of people eating.

Looking at the full hotel, Yang Zheng remembered a sentence that was once popular in the business circle and on the Internet.

That sentence is that catering is absolutely inseparable from the Internet now.

At this time, this lively scene seems to subvert this sentence.

After all, he knows Lao Zhang and the owner of the store, both of whom are forty or fifty years old, and they don't have much concept of the Internet.

Perhaps for them, the Internet is just the role of watching videos, playing games, and posting WX chats.

But without the catalysis of the Internet, why is this store getting bigger and bigger?

Yang Zheng looked around at the customers in the restaurant again, and he seemed to understand something.

He raised his head and looked at the old-fashioned TV hanging high in the store, he didn't know why, his heart warmed, and he honestly sat in the rest area of the store, silently waiting for the vacant seats.

By nine o'clock, the number of people in the restaurant was slowly decreasing, but the queue was increasing.

Many takeaway guys who have just finished busy, like Yang Zheng, are quietly waiting for the vacant seats in the store, and they are also like him, quietly watching the TV in the store.

It is said that TV is an ornament in most families in this era, and many families can't turn on the TV several times a year.

Not only that, but in more and more restaurants, TV seems to have changed from "regular" to "rare", and more and more restaurants choose to replace the original location of TV with a variety of billboards.

And this small restaurant has always adhered to the tradition of watching TV, although now TV shows are becoming more and more difficult to watch, and most of the TV dramas are difficult to explain, but TV is a kind of spiritual sustenance that cannot be said for many elderly people.

At this time, the TV was playing an old-fashioned Hong Kong drama, as if it was about entrepreneurship, although I started watching it halfway, but it did not affect the interest of these old boys at all.

They watched it with relish, and it seemed that in this old Hong Kong drama, they temporarily let go of their fatigue after a busy day today.

The shopkeeper also looked at the group of young people who were young to him, and a smile inadvertently appeared on his face.

After all, for the owner of a restaurant who has opened a restaurant all his life, watching TV is his interest, and at the same time, watching these young people is also one of his interests.

He didn't look down on these busy young people who had no money in their pockets as the store expanded.

On the contrary, the bigger the store, the deeper his understanding of these young people becomes.

In this era of soaring prices, in this era of difficult employment, every industry deserves to be respected.

Because he respects everyone, his purpose in opening a restaurant is to let everyone eat well.

It is precisely because of this purpose that he has become less calculating, and he has become less dependent on anyone, let alone the Internet.

He doesn't know what business thinking, nor does he know how to reduce operating costs to obtain high profits, let alone save labor costs.

He only knows that he can pay his employees every month, pay the rent for water and electricity, and it is enough to have a surplus.

This was what his father taught him.

Contentment and happiness are his life principles.

But his father also taught him another truth in life.

He vaguely remembered that when he was very young, his father took him out to dinner.

On the way, father and son met a beggar.

The beggar reached out for the broken bowl in his hand and begged for some change.

And his father, instead of choosing to give him money, bought him a meal.

Afterwards, his father did not use the beggar as an example to let his child study hard, as most parents do.

Instead, he said to him what he thought was the meaning of reading and being a man.

He said that studying is not for money, nor for status, but to be able to see clearly what he wants.

He also said that if he could, he hoped that when his children grew up, they would not look down on anyone, but should respect everyone. In the end, he also said that if he could, he hoped that his children would be able to help these homeless and poor people after learning to see what they wanted.

After all, his father was very kind, and he also believed that kindness would be the greatest and most valuable asset of an adult.
