The next day, Chen Ming took his wife and daughter, and sent 10,000 bottles of sparkling wine to Jinxia City with Li Hu and Huang Mao driving a truck himself.

In that Sister Jin's office, Zhang Yuyan saw this again, a strong woman who can make three men scared when she drinks! It's just that Sister Jin is too busy, and during the conversation with them for a few hours and a half, she has answered at least twenty phone calls successively.

Zhang Yuyan quietly asked Chen Ming: "Does she work so hard every day?" ”

"Definitely, so you have to be mentally prepared in advance, and you will be as busy as her when the business gets bigger in the future."

"Then I'm not going to make the business bigger."

"Silly wife, this can't help you. Business is like a thief ship, and you can't decide which way the ship is going, unless you go out and scuttle the ship, and then die with the ship. ”

Chen Ming is talking and not going out of his mind! You are not afraid that this kind of alarmist description will scare away the confidence and courage that Zhang Yuyan has built up with great difficulty: to be a female boss in business......

Seeing that Sister Jin was extremely busy today, Chen Ming and his group did not continue to stay longer, but took the initiative to say goodbye very interestingly, and Sister Jin apologized to them one by one: "I'm really embarrassed, I'm really busy today and don't have time to entertain a few of you, let's make up for it next time." ”

Chen Ming replied with a smile: "Sister, you don't need to be so polite to us, the three of us are all your younger brothers, oh, there is also your brother and daughter-in-law and your little niece, all of them are a family, hehe." ”

This Sister Jin is really a female man with a bold personality: "Okay, since we are a family, then I won't be polite to you, I won't entertain you this time, let's talk about it next time we meet." ”

In this way, what was originally quite embarrassing turned into a situation where neither party felt embarrassed.

The biggest advantage of adding a hot pot restaurant in Jinxia City is that no matter what time you come, you don't have to worry about eating, and you can enjoy delicious food at any time. However, Chen Ming sticks to one thing: although it is his own shop, he will pay according to the price on the menu after every meal!

His approach made Li Hu, Huangmao and Zhang Yuyan admire him in their hearts.

Especially Zhang Yuyan was deeply touched by this matter, but she never forgot it: even if she only had the last penny left on her body before, Chen Ming couldn't wait to forcibly snatch away the virtue! As a result, he is now completely indifferent to money, which makes Zhang Yuyan feel emotional.

Chen Ming, who was satisfied with eating, sighed: "It is a happy thing to be able to eat hot pot beautifully every week. ”

Li Hu replied to him with a smile: "I've known you for more than ten years, but I never knew that you loved hot pot so much." ”

"That's because I used to be poor and couldn't afford to eat."

There is also a hot pot restaurant in Shannan County, to be precise, it should be called a "mutton shop", because people's main business is to sell beef and mutton, and at the same time selling beef and mutton, three tables and a few stools are prepared in the store, and then there are three hot pots that can be eaten with shabu.

The hot pot is very good, copper! According to the boss, his father's father is his great-grandfather, who stole it from the palace kitchen during the Qing Dynasty! It's something used by the emperor, empress and concubines!

But even so, it seems that no one has ever eaten shabu mutton at his house, because no one is willing to spend money on such expensive food! Only during the New Year's festival will some people in Shannan County have a luxurious meal of mutton at home.

But the process of shabu-shabu is extremely simple: grit your teeth and stomp your feet to buy a few catties of mutton slices, and then get any pot to boil the water, and at most there are some green onions and ginger slices in the pot in addition to water. The dipping sauce is a tahini sauce with salt in it.

Then the family had to take turns standing in front of the stove to eat, because the water in the pot had to be boiling all the time. It's so simple that it couldn't be simpler to "brush mutton", and it is definitely the most sumptuous meal in the family this year......

Huang Mao followed and said: "Who was not poor before? It's already thankful that every family can have two meals a day, and they still eat shabu mutton? Cut yourself, cut it, and eat it, it's almost the same. ”

Although he was joking, it was completely true, so no one in the room laughed: they all had a time when they didn't have food when they were young! Except that the current Chen Ming has never suffered this kind of hardship.

Seeing that the atmosphere instantly became dull and depressed, Chen Ming immediately raised his wine glass: "So now that we are not poor, we can afford to eat the proper mutton shabu, so try to eat and drink as much as possible!" Come, let's go together. ”

The hot pot they eat now has the bottom of the pot, dipping sauces, high-quality mutton slices, and all kinds of seafood and vegetables. Although the geographical location of Jinxia City and Shannan County is only a little more than 100 kilometers apart, the people of the two places are like living in two different worlds.

Unlike Shannan County, which is closed and backward, Jinxia City is already standing not far from the gate of a modern city. Of course, compared to that era, compared with the city thirty years later, the current Jinxia City is still nothing.

Chen Ming turned his face and whispered to Zhang Yuyan: "Before three o'clock in the afternoon, you must be busy with all the things in this store, because we have to drive back at three o'clock, and Li Hu and I have to go out to run errands tonight." ”

Zhang Yuyan immediately asked vigilantly: "Didn't you go out to fight?" ”

"Where did I think I went to you! It's a good day to eat and drink, but what kind of fight, do you remember Chen Meichun I told you? She insisted on inviting me and Li Hu to her house for dinner tonight, but she couldn't refuse. ”

Now the wife is relieved: "That's because people want to express their gratitude and gratitude to the two of you, it's normal, and I would do the same if it were me." ”

Chen Ming immediately thought in his heart, if it were you, I would not only ask you to invite me to dinner, but I also wanted you to promise me personally! You think you'll get me away by treating me to a meal? How can you be so cheap?

Zhang Yuyan would never have thought of her man at such a moment, and all kinds of "despicable, shameless, and dirty" thoughts had already turned in her mind, and all kinds of thoughts were trying to do wrong with her.

Chen Ming deserted and thought of another thing: should I post a notice here and recruit a boiler burner? Jinxia City is such a big place, there won't even be a boiler burner, right?

If I can't find this person, my bathroom will not be a white cover but a furnishing.
