Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

Zhao Shanhe said, "But then again, not everyone can have a state banquet. Don't leaders usually cook home-cooked dishes? Our restaurant still has a bright future."

"Of course, I have always believed in your vision, Shanhe." Li Huaide said

"Come on, let's drink. I wish our hotel business will be prosperous and make a fortune every day." Deputy Mayor Li raised his glass and said

The three of them raised their glasses and drank them all.

Deputy Mayor Li left first as he had other things to do, so Li Huaide stayed.

"Old Li, don't be hesitant. I saw that you wanted to say something, but you held it back."

"It's mainly because Vice Mayor Li is here. I was originally going to say something, but I also wanted to ask for your opinion."

"Old Li, just tell me what's going on."

"I have a big business that I can't handle by myself. I wonder if you are interested?"

"Home appliances, Lao Li?"

"Shanhe, you guessed it. I really don't know what's wrong with your brain."

"No, Lao Li, this is hard to guess. You are the director of the Motor Vehicle Department and you are in the export business. Our country is short of home appliances, and other countries may have problems with customs, but for you, isn't it easy?

You have business dealings with Europe, America, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Those countries don't lack these things. As long as you have the means, isn't it normal to do some private work?"

"So what do you think of this business? I wanted to say it, but I've dealt with Deputy Mayor Li before, but we weren't close friends, so I held back."

"Old Li, let's not talk about Deputy Mayor Li first, let's talk about business first. This business is huge, but I'm not optimistic about it."

"Shanhe, why do you say that?"

"You also know the national policy. These things are all planned. Unplanned things are actually being worked on. Just like the steel mill in the past, as long as you have the ability to get it,

But you have to know that to do these things you need a strong background. In the past when it was difficult, if you could get something done, you were considered capable, and the higher-ups tacitly approved it. But to do these things you need a strong background.

Otherwise, once something goes wrong, you will be cannon fodder. I believe that there are people who are doing these things now. If you check the background of these people first, you will understand. You are still far from being a director. Your father-in-law is not much different from you now, and he cannot protect you.

You are the director of the motor vehicle department, and I am a newly promoted second-level engineer. We are being watched. Believe it or not, our partnership has been made public for a long time. This restaurant is just a small business, and we have a bright future and are valued by the higher-ups.

Others just don't want to touch us. If we get involved, believe it or not, someone will definitely mess with us. I don't believe that you don't understand this after all these years, Lao Li."

"Hey, brother, I was careless, but that Deputy Mayor Li's family is very powerful, how about bringing him along?"

"Old Li, we still have to do it. Who wouldn't be envious of such a huge cake? But we can't do it this way. I originally planned to join the game in a few years."

"Shanhe, what do you think we should do?"

"Legalize him,"

“How to legalize it?”

"To attract investment, it shouldn't be difficult for you to get an identity from the other side. Now there is policy support and the land is free for you to use. It just so happens that I have all the technology to make TVs and watches. Wouldn't it be legal to build a factory there? Wouldn't the unplanned become planned?

As for those people with powerful backgrounds, they become the biggest umbrellas of protection. Instead of acting secretly, they might as well cooperate with us. Don't you think that making money together will reduce the risks?

What our country lacks the most is workers. Then the cost will come down and everyone will make money. Don’t you think it’s better than doing it secretly? ”

"Shanhe, that's amazing, do you really have the technique?"

"Compared to cars, that thing is not difficult at all. As long as you have the materials, assembling it is a piece of cake. There are mostly black and white ones now, and color ones are expensive. I have a way to reduce the cost and make it color.

It's just that the materials are hard to get, those things are very strictly controlled. Also, we are short of money, and building a factory is not a small amount of money, so why I said these things are in my subsequent plans.

It's not worthwhile to cooperate with others. We can't get the majority of the technology, and we will just be making things easier for others. So, Lao Li, you should be steady for a few years and rely on small businesses to accumulate initial costs first."

"Okay, I'll listen to you and we'll talk about it in a few years. Brother, if you have any business, please help me."

"Old Li, you shouldn't be short of money, right? Even if the restaurant has invested part of it, you should still have some, right?"

"Shanhe, no one has too much money, right? Don't you think so? Don't you need it too?"

"Old Li, you are wrong. I really do need it. You have seen that our Zhao family has too many brothers and sisters, and there will be even more in the next generation. The assets I have are not enough for my children to share. I have to work hard for them.

Otherwise, why would I, a second-level engineer, start a business? It’s all for the sake of my children.”

"Shanhe, now that you mention it, there must be more than one business, right? Take me with you."

"Old Li, to be honest, I am planning to start a garment factory, but it will be a small one," Zhao Shanhe was about to find an excuse to fool Old Li, but after thinking about it carefully, he still needed Old Li's help for the raw materials.

"Old Li, it's no problem for me to take you with me. Brothers should be clear about accounts. I'll be frank with you. I definitely can't give you that many shares of the hotel. I want to maintain absolute control. And you only participate in dividends, not decision-making. Do you think you can accept that?"

"Shanhe, how much are you going to give me?"

"Five percent at most. I have to share it with my brothers and sisters."

"Like you said, professional matters should be left to professionals. I won't be involved in decision-making. But isn't 5% too little? It should be at least 10%."

"Lao Li, 5% is not a small amount. Think about how many people there are in our country. My goal is not just domestic, but also to go abroad in the future. By then, it will be hundreds of billions or trillions. Think about how much you can get with 5%. I promise you that I will guarantee you 5% in the future."

"Okay, 5% is 5%, but you have to involve me in future business."

"Old Li, do you trust me so much?"

"If I don't trust you, who else can you trust? I always feel that you have everything under control, as if you can predict what will happen in the future. I have to hold on to your thighs tightly.

And the clothes for the waiters are made by your clothing factory, right? The clothes your waiters wear are better looking than those outside, so your clothing factory will definitely be successful."

"Okay, I believe you won't regret this decision. Happy cooperation."

"It's a pleasure to work with you. I'll give you the money later."

It was not until the next day after get off work that Zhao Shanhe learned how much the store had sold on the opening day.

The main thing was that I was busy until 11 o'clock in the evening on the first day, and it was midnight when I finished the statistics.

He earned nearly 20,000 yuan a day. His restaurant serves expensive dishes and fine wines, and the news leaked out on the first day of opening gave him such a good income. In the future, he estimates that he will earn about 10,000 yuan a day. Excluding costs, it will only be a few thousand yuan a day.
