Siheyuan: Pioneer in anti-corruption, fighting against evil!

There are not many dishes, just four dishes and one soup!

While eating and talking, He Yuzhu said: "There is no need to invest in the restaurant, but I plan to open a hot pot restaurant chain.

"Your ideas are quite advanced!" Lou Xiao'e was a little surprised, "There are not many chain brands in Hong Kong, but there are many abroad, such as supermarket chains.

“What’s the specialty of your hot pot chain?”

“It’s Sichuan style.

"He Yuzhu explained: "For the unified hot pot base, I will also set up a food factory to specialize in the production of this base, which will be used for household consumption and for supplying hot pot restaurants.

“Of course, it’s not just the base sauce, there are also dipping sauces, hot sauces, and other food and beverages that will be launched.

“This requires a recipe, and there are many recipes for Sichuan cuisine, and I have some research results myself.

"Well, it sounds like a good project!" Lou Xiao'e said excitedly, "Are you looking for investment?"

“After all, I still have a lot of deficiencies in management. Instead of slowly training me, it’s better for me to cooperate with you.

"He Yuzhu shared his idea," You can invest a part of it and then be responsible for the operation of the company.

Then, Lou Xiaoe asked: "How much can you invest?"

“You can only invest in the hotpot chain, holding 30 percent of the shares, and you will be given 5 percent of management shares, but no salary.

"He Yuzhu made it clear.

Lou Xiao'e was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, you are now a qualified businessman.

“I’m not a businessman.

"He Yuzhu shook his head," In the food industry, conscience is the most important thing. I will not blindly pursue profit maximization.

"Hehe~" Lou Xiao'e suddenly laughed out loud.

He Yuzhu asked in confusion: "What are you laughing at?"

“Business people also focus on quality.

"Lou Xiao'e responded.

He Yuzhu shook his head again and said, “Not necessarily. There is no need to delve into this topic. The chain store does not accept franchisees, and the future goal is to expand nationwide.

“A branch company needs to be set up in each province, each store needs a store manager, the branch company will be responsible for the purchase of raw materials, and the rules and regulations must be unified.

"You have to take care of all these things. What do you think?"

"No problem!" Lou Xiao'e agreed without hesitation, "I can already imagine the future scale, 30% of the shares and 5% of the management shares, the dividends will not be small.

“The only challenge is how to expand.

“We have to understand that we cannot afford such a scale at the moment.

"Of course, this has to be done slowly. I am confident in my recipe, and Sichuan hotpot is suitable for most people.

"He Yuzhu said, "It is not yet time to roll out the policy nationwide, after all, reform and opening up have not yet been fully launched.

"Didn't you start from Sijiucheng and Tianjin?"

"There is no doubt that the pilot cities there can follow up and keep up with the country's opening-up policy.

“Well, you have a point.

"Lou Xiao'e was slightly startled. He Yuzhu had given her quite a few surprises today. He always said something unexpected, which was not a habit that a chef, especially one that could be developed in an environment like the mainland, could develop.

However, Lou Xiao'e did not delve into the matter further.

She came to He Yuzhu because she admired his cooking skills, but she didn't expect that He Yuzhu already had his own restaurant.

Everyone thought there was no hope, but then things took a turn for the better. He Yuzhu was ambitious and knew how to use his strengths.

He chose to work in a field he was familiar with and play to his strengths. In fact, He Yuzhu had no other special talents.

Although he came from another world, he was unfamiliar with many things. He was just an ordinary person in his previous life and had no chance to learn new knowledge after traveling through time.

With the system in hand, he could only concentrate on cooking, and he specialized in Sichuan cuisine, knowing how great the market potential of Sichuan cuisine and Sichuan flavor would be in the future.

He planned ahead, founded the "Master He" brand, seized market share, and maintained product quality, which is the most important thing.

Even if he has a lot of money, what does it matter? He has no intention of going public. He only plans to operate the business himself, maintain quality, and expand sales, so as to maintain the level of price without raising prices. Naturally, competitors will emerge in the future.

As for other investments, he can participate, but will not manage them personally. It would be nice for him to be an angel investor in the future.

The two reached a consensus at the dinner table, and the next step was preparation, but there was no rush because the reform of state-owned enterprises had not yet been completed.

In addition, the equipment problem has not been solved yet. Lou Xiao'e needs to return to Hong Kong Island to investigate clearly before implementing the plan.

...

"Mom, look at Dad!" He Wenjia whispered after Lou Xiao'e left, "He actually chatted so well with that woman, aren't you jealous?"

Wen Li stretched out her finger and tapped He Wenjia's forehead, accusing him, "What kind of evil ideas are you thinking of in your little head?"

"How old are you?"

“If she were a teenager, I might have been more careful.

But how much younger is Lou Xiao'e than your father?"

"You, study hard and stop daydreaming.

When He Yuzhu came back from seeing off the guests, he found He Wenjia already studying in the room. Wen Li was sitting in the living room and when she saw He Yuzhu come back, she looked at him with a strange look.

"Hey, what's that look in your eyes?" He Yuzhu was a little creeped out by the look, "What are you looking at?"

He even looked back, and Wen Li was amused by He Yuzhu, "Puchi... You are so funny, I thought you were doubting something?"

"Hey, are you teasing me?" He Yuzhu wondered what was wrong with his wife today!

Wen Li burst into laughter, as if she had heard something extremely funny. She held her stomach and laughed continuously, leaving He Yuzhu confused.

"What are you laughing at?" He Yuzhu looked at her helplessly.

"Your daughter...she asked me if I should be worried since you and Lou Xiao'e were getting along so well!"

"..." He Yuzhu was overwhelmed by his daughter's thoughts, and finally shouted angrily: "This girl, she is so old and still doesn't use her brain, how can she ask such a question?"

"She asked what happened?" Wen Li's tone changed, "I want to ask her!"

"How old am I?" He Yuzhu pointed at his nose, "Forty-seven, almost fifty.

“My eldest son is married, so maybe next year I will become a grandfather.

“Whether you are a philanderer or not has nothing to do with age.

"Wen Li was actually a little worried, after all, Lou Xiao'e knew how to dress up.

Despite her plump figure, she looks very attractive in her fashionable clothes.

After her daughter asked, although she was driven away by her, Wen Li still looked at herself in the mirror. She was only one year younger than He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu raised his eyebrows, wondering if his wife had entered menopause. Such a thing was really hard to reason with.

"It seems that you are really itching for a lesson and need to be taught a lesson!" He Yuzhu laughed, then walked forward, picked up Wen Li, and walked straight to the bedroom.

"You...let me go!" Wen Li was shocked. What was this old guy up to?

"You must be punished. You can even think wrongly about serious matters. It seems that you need family discipline education.

"He Yuzhu carried his wife into the bedroom and then began his "family law".

After making love, the two fell asleep in each other's arms. He Yuzhu asked, "Didn't you like dressing up in the past?"

"Why is it so simple now?"

"How can it be the same?" Wen Li replied, "I am the principal now, how can I dress like a vase?"

"If it doesn't work out, then quit!" He Yuzhu didn't care much about Wen Li's job. After all, she was just a primary school principal.

Wen Li hesitated for a moment, then continued:

"Isn't this inappropriate?"

"What's inappropriate?" He Yuzhu immediately persuaded: "Look at Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru, they are in their fifties, and they still dress up, don't they?"

"You are younger and prettier than them, so how could you lose to them?"

"But there's something wrong with their attire, otherwise I'll take you to Hong Kong Island!"

"Hong Kong Island?" Wen Li was stunned. "What are you going to do?"

“Of course it’s shopping. We are short of supplies here, so we have to go there to buy things. There are more and better things.

"He Yuzhu has already started to act. "Can we invite the in-laws to come as well?"

“Well, that’s a good idea.

"Wen Li's eyes lit up, "You can choose to go in winter. Autumn is almost over. Aren't you going to open a branch store?"

“We’ll go after your branch opens, after all, you promised MCA.

“Okay, that’s settled.

"He Yuzhu nodded in agreement," I will call my in-laws tomorrow and agree to go there before the New Year and come back before the New Year.

"If Wenxuan and the others are on vacation, let them go home for the New Year. Since the in-laws don't have to go back, they can just celebrate the New Year in Beijing.

The plan was very well arranged. He Yuzhu was busy preparing for the branch and also participated in the opening ceremony of Chen Xueru Hotel.

...

When Chen Xueru opened the hotel, she did not invite Xu Huizhen, as the two were in a cold war over the issue of their children.

Chen Xueru's first son, Hou Kui, was born to her and her ex-husband. After the resumption of the college entrance examination, Hou Kui was in the same university as Xu Huizhen's eldest daughter Xu Jingli, and he began to pursue her.

Xu Jingli was born at the end of 1955 and is nearly years old. He is about the same age as Hou Kui, both of whom are young people about to turn .

Both of them were unmarried, and this dispute made Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen unhappy. Chen Xueru did not invite Xu Huizhen to the opening of her hotel.

However, Xu Huizhen didn't care about it and went directly to the hotel, and the two had a conversation in the office.

The next day, Xu Huizhen called He Yuzhu and invited him to the pub.

He Yuzhu felt strange and didn't understand why Xu Huizhen suddenly came to find him, but he still drove there in the morning.

"Is Zhuzi here?" As soon as Cai Quanwu saw He Yuzhu, he warmly invited him into the house and then served him the dishes, which left He Yuzhu a little confused.

"Brother Cai, what's going on?" He Yuzhu asked puzzledly.

“Our boss will talk to you in person later.

" Tsai Quan-wu remained expressionless.

He Yuzhu raised his eyebrows, although he was confused, he could only wait.

After a while, Xu Huizhen came out and said, "Zhu Zi, you are such a real bastard!"

"Hey?" He Yuzhu was stunned. "What does sister-in-law mean?"

"The chef you introduced to Chen Xueru is really skilled in cooking Shandong cuisine!" Xu Huizhen said with a smile, "Why don't you introduce one to me?"

He Yuzhu understood immediately after hearing this, and then smiled and said, "Okay, sister-in-law, just say whatever you want to say!"

"Don't blame me for this. After all, Chen Xueru was the one who brought it up first. It just so happened that a friend of mine wanted to start his own business, but he had no experience. I was afraid that he would suffer a loss, so I introduced them to each other.

"Heh~" Xu Huizhen smiled, "Okay, it's not your fault.

But I also plan to do something else.

"Oh, what are you doing?" He Yuzhu asked curiously.

“I plan to open a hotel. If I do it, I will do it to the best of my ability.

"Xu Huizhen said, "Are you interested in investing together?"

"Hotel?" He Yuzhu was slightly surprised. There was indeed a plot in the drama where Xu Huizhen opened a hotel. Now the city of Beijing really needed such facilities. With the increase in the number of tourists, the demand for hotels increased greatly.

"So what are you going to do?" he demanded.

“I want to integrate accommodation and dining.

Xu Huizhen explained, "What do you think?"

He Yuzhu shook his head and said, "Integration is good, but there must be a core. After all, you run a hotel and most of the guests are from other places.

"They come to Sijiucheng mainly to do business, so breakfast and lunch are fine, but dinner is unnecessary.

" He added.

“There’s no need to hire a chef, after all, we have to share the profits.

Xu Huizhen nodded in agreement: "I think so too.

"Hmm?" He Yuzhu was stunned again, "Then you come to me..."

"Investment!" Xu Huizhen said, "My own funds are limited, so I want to bring you in so that we can open a larger hotel.

He Yuzhu pondered for a moment and decided that Xu Huizhen was a good person and cooperation was worth considering.

He himself is not short of money, so there is no problem for him to be an angel investor.

"Okay, but how big will your business be? How much of the shares will be given to me?"

"I know you have money, but... are you interested in running a hotel?" Xu Huizhen is a strong woman who looks similar to Chen Xueru on the surface, but is essentially different.

Xu Huizhen's dominance is deep in her bones, while Chen Xueru is only strong on the surface, but she herself does not intend to directly participate in hotel management.

“I have my own business and plan to open a branch. I also have other projects next year. You will definitely be responsible for operating the hotel.

"He Yuzhu made it clear," If the funds are not enough, you can solve it with a loan. Bank policies are also relaxed now.

After thinking it over, Xu Huizhen agreed with his point of view. "Okay, let's put the shares aside. I plan to open a five-star hotel. What do you think?"

“I have no problem with the scale, but the design and decoration must be carefully planned and not too ordinary.

"Besides, many things in a five-star hotel need to be imported. I happen to be going to Hong Kong Island in the winter. Would you like to go with me to investigate, sister-in-law?"

Xu Huizhen's eyes lit up and she immediately responded, "Okay, I'll go. There's no rush. Let's choose a location first and then go for a field survey.

"That's it. I happen to have a few friends there, so let them be our guides.

He Yuzhu nodded in agreement.

Then, Cai Quanwu and Xu Huizhen accompanied He Yuzhu to drink, but He Yuzhu did not drink excessively because he drove here. After drinking two glasses, he said goodbye and went home.

When he got home, he called his father-in-law first: "Brother, I'm going to go shopping in the winter, do you want to go with me?"
