50. Seize the opportunity
Turning around and looking back, it turned out to be an old man with a cold face. The old man is dressed in Chinese-style cloth clothes, and his expression gives people a feeling of fairy wind and bones, which makes people feel good.
Seeing that the other party looked respectable, I pulled Xia Qing to stop and asked, "What did the old gentleman tell us to stop?" ”
The other party smiled and hugged his fists and said, "I'm really embarrassed just now, I really frightened the two of you!" I've been here for more than 30 years, but this is the first time I've encountered something like this. ”
Listening to the old man say politely, it turned out that he was the boss here, claiming to be surnamed Jing.
"It's okay, old man. We just came here to have a meal, but I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing, I'm really sorry. Xia Qing smiled gently.
"Where, where, I think this little brother is good, I don't know where he has been guided? I, an old man, usually like to play with my fists and feet in addition to cooking, and I see that the young man is extraordinary, so I take the liberty to ask for advice or two. Old man Jing said politely.
Our provincial capital, also known as Guancheng, is close to the alpine land of Saibei, and has been a place where soldiers and horses have fought since ancient times. The so-called Guancheng means that the Humen Pass in the north of the city is the grassland in the north of the city.
Since ancient times, there has been a strong martial tradition around Sekijo. Every morning exercise, there are many old people in the park boxing and sword practice, in the TV industry is in a recession, there is actually a martial arts program on Guancheng TV.
Therefore, it is reasonable for this old man to say that he wants to compare and compare.
However, although the old man Jing said this, I really have nothing to point out to, because compared to ordinary people, I just react faster and have stronger strength.
So I apologized to Mr. Jing and said: "Mr. Jing has been promoted, I really have no sect, and I have not been taught by any master, but I like to exercise since I was a child, so I react faster." Besides......" I pointed to the guys who were still lying on the ground and snorted, and then said: "These people have drunk too much again, and they can't stand on their feet, where can they stop fighting, so they ......"
"Hahaha......" The old man laughed loudly: "The young man is young, but he is modest, so it doesn't matter!" But I like to make friends, this is my business card, young man, when I have time to come back, I will invite you to have a few drinks! ”
I also handed the business card of "Tianqing Investment" printed before the business trip to Mr. Jing, he took the business card in his hand and looked at it for a while and said: "Gao Chao, young and promising!" If there is anything you need help with in Sekijo, just say it! ”
"Old man, you just said that this shop has been open for thirty years?" I suddenly thought that Liu Youpeng was very happy to do it, maybe there would be something that needed the help of Old Man Jing in the future, so I asked.
"Yes, speaking of which, cooking is also our ancestral craft. After the reform and opening up, this store was set up here, and this store has been 38 years since this year. It's quick to think about it, remember that I was your age at that time! Old man Jing said with emotion on his face.
"I thought your food tasted really good, so I didn't think about opening a branch or something?" I asked, if Mr. Jing's restaurant is to be opened in Dragon City or Kyoto, the business must be good.
"This store is enough for me to be busy, where is there time to open any branches, to tell you that I only have a girl under my knees, and my daughter is unwilling to take over, I think that after this year, this store will have to close. I'm old, and I can't do it anymore! Old Man Jing sighed and asked, "Brother Xiaogao, I heard what you mean, and I am quite interested in our shop." ”
"I think it tastes good, but it's a shame if I don't. It just so happens that I have a friend who is also doing catering in Longcheng, and his business reputation is also good, so I don't know if Mr. Jing is willing to cooperate with us. I asked tentatively, if Old Man Jing is willing to teach us the craft, then it will really be earned.
"Forget about cooperation or something, I can't do this old bone, if you and your friends are interested, I can teach you." Old man Jing said.
"Okay, it's a word. When I went back to Dragon City, I told my friend that I think he would be glad to find out. I said happily.
We were chatting acquaintedly, and the goods lying on the ground sat up and were about to slip out.
"What's wrong? Little Sanzi, drink two glasses of wine and don't stop! I'm not afraid that you will know and be anxious! Old man Jing saw that the bucktoothed man was about to go out, so he shouted.
"Uncle Jing, I'm sorry for you! Just now, I ......" The bucktoothed man seemed to be very afraid of this old man Jing, and when he was stopped by the old man Jing, he couldn't even speak.
"What am I! How many times have you said that you are looking for something serious to do, and you don't listen to it! If it weren't for the mercy of this Gao brother, you would have been lying in the hospital again! Old man Jing reprimanded.
"Yes, yes, Uncle Jing said yes! I must change, I must change! The bucktoothed man said and was about to slip out.
"Run for what? Have you apologized to anyone? Just run! I saw that the old man Jing was quick-eyed, grabbed the collar of the bucktooth who was about to slip out of the door, and pulled the other party back.
Seeing this, the rest slipped away. Seeing that he couldn't escape, the bucktoothed man could only lower his head and say, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Dude drank too much just now! ”
This bucktoothed man was very arrogant just now, but he seemed to be very afraid of this old man, and when he saw the old man, it was like a mouse seeing a cat, and he only said what it was.
Seeing the bucktoothed man in front of him pretending to be pitiful, Xia Qing smiled and said, "Forget it, forget it, it's nothing, let him go." ”
When the bucktoothed man saw Xia Qing talking, his face turned red, but he didn't dare to look at Xia Qing, and he heard the old man hum, so he hurriedly trotted away.
"Hey, this kid......" Old Man Jing couldn't help but sigh when he saw the bucktooth man leaving.
"This person, do you know the old man?" Xia Qing asked.
"It's not just acquaintance, my father and I used to work in the same unit, and we both lived next door. His father died early, and his mother took the three of them alone, and he didn't have time to care. A few years ago, I made some mistakes, and I went in for a boxed lunch for two years, and then I came out and couldn't find a job well. If you have nothing to do, you can run to me here to eat. Like his father, when he doesn't drink, he is a normal person, and when he drinks, he is easy to make mistakes! Ahem, don't talk about him! The old man waved his hand.
While we were talking, a girl with bright eyes and long hair and a shawl walked in from the door, looking like a nearby white-collar worker who was tired of shopping and looking for food.
The woman glanced at me and Xia Qing, and then said to the old man: "Dad, you haven't closed the door yet, what time is it?" "It turned out that the woman who came in was actually the daughter of the old man.
"Sipan, come over here and get to know these two young people." Old man Jing greeted.
After introducing each other and chatting for a few words, Jing Sipan stood on the side, obviously not interested in her father's nagging.
"My daughter, everything is good, and she is also very filial, but she doesn't want to touch pots and pans. You said it would be nice to follow me to open a store here, but you have to do some business! Girls' families! Old Man Jing complained repeatedly.
"I'm doing business in the wholesale market, isn't it also business when you open a restaurant?" Jing Sipan muttered.
"Oh, Miss Jing used to be a wholesale market? I don't know what kind of wholesale market it is? I hurriedly asked.
"The fruit business is mainly engaged in imported fruits." Jing Sipan glanced at me and said.
Xia Qing and I glanced at each other, thinking that there was nowhere to find this broken iron shoe, and it didn't take any effort to get there! So he introduced the fruit processing factory in his hometown, and then asked, "I wonder if Miss Jing is interested in dealing in local fruits?" ”
"Mr. Gao, what we mainly do is imported fruits from Australia, kiwifruit from New Zealand or something, although the price is a little expensive, but the supply and quality are guaranteed. I've heard of the fruits in Gaojia Town you just mentioned, but the locals don't necessarily buy it! Now we are all looking for peace of mind. Jing Sipan said in business.
"It's okay, I'll just say that, and we're also getting in touch with organic certification. You know that we have been growing fruits in Gaojia Town for all these years, but the brand is still a little hot. I quickly explained that although I only started a fruit processing factory when I returned to my hometown this time, I still hoped that through the fruit processing factory, my family would become rich.
"Don't say it, if there is really organic certification, sales will definitely go up. However, organic certification is not easy to get, and the cycle is relatively long. In fact, packaging and brand are also very important, I have a few acquaintances here, and I can introduce you to it when the time comes. Jing Sipan said.
I chatted with Mr. Jing and Jing Stepan for a while, and basically finalized the matter of Liu Youpeng coming over to learn the craft, and asking Jing Stepan to try to sell the Gao family's fruits.
In particular, the consignment of fruits makes me even more happy, after all, it is a little farther away than the dealer in Kyoto, and if Jing Sipan can help in Sekijo, it will save a lot of trouble.
As a farewell to the father and daughter, walking back to the hotel, Xia Qing said thoughtfully: "Gao Chao, you have really changed recently. ”
"Oh, really? Isn't it more handsome? I said with a smirk.
"Not really. I mean, you've been really stuck in the cracks lately, and you've been thinking about business all the time. ”
"That's a must! Since you are in business, you must find opportunities! Do you think that among the rich people in China now, which one is not a master of looking for opportunities? If Brother Pony hadn't caught ICQ, where would there be the current Penguin Empire? If Rebus hadn't made a Xiaomi mobile phone, where would there be the limelight now? During this time, I read some books, and I feel that these successful businessmen have not only made the right choice, but also are masters of seizing opportunities! ”
"Yes! In the past few decades, the land of China has created many myths, and I hope that we can make a difference in sunny day investment! Xia Qing suddenly sighed.
"However, I feel that the projects we are investing in now are still a bit miscellaneous, you see, there are movies, software, catering, and now there is another fruit business."
"It's a little, it's still a little blind at first, and we still have to sort out our thoughts when we go back to Dragon City. If you want to become bigger and stronger, you still need to focus on a certain area. "Summer sunshine.
"That's true, it's a bit of a grabbing of eyebrows and mustaches right now." I said.
The night breeze was slightly cool, Xia Qing was only wearing a thin coat, and she felt that her whole body was shivering when the cold wind blew.
When crossing the street, I hesitated, but still grabbed Xia Qing's hand. Xia Qing's hand shrunk coldly in my hand, a little resistant at first, but finally obediently held it in my hand.
My heart couldn't help but pound, I hadn't felt this throbbing in a long, long time. Is this love? Thinking about going back to the hotel, there are only two of us alone, men and widows, if this feeling of nothingness is a little more, will there be anything worth looking forward to tonight?
