Chapter 320 Two ignorant young people treated me as a worthy son(4000 words)
If Xia Zekai doesn't take the initiative, this matter will be difficult to handle.
Let Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo bite the hedgehog, unable to bite it.
Xia Zekai took the key and walked out. He also called Zhang and Liang to go together and said, "Mr. Zhang, let's go. I just have time to take you for a walk."
Halfway through, Xia Zekai thought about it and called his wife Luo Xiyun in advance and said to her: "Daughter-in-law, you have to ask for leave this afternoon and leave early to pick up Yatou and Tongtong. I have two people here.
A friend from the capital, I will show them around."
"Why are you coming from the capital again..." Luo Xiyun had just finished speaking, and then continued: "Is the person you called that morning coming?"
"Yes, Mr. Zhang, whom we met on Sina Weibo, is here. I will show them around and have dinner together in the evening. Will you come?" Xia Zekai asked her.
Luo Xiyun refused directly. She said, "You go ahead. I will take Yatou and Tongtong around the city and buy them two sets of seasonal clothes."
Autumn has already entered, and by mid-October, I already feel a little cold. Yatou and Tongtong are growing up quickly, and the clothes they bought last year are no longer suitable, so they have to buy new ones.
This child just wastes money on clothes and shoes.
Speaking of clothes, Luo Xiyun still remembered Xia Zekai and asked him: "Do I still need to buy you clothes?"
"I don't need it, just buy two sets for yourself." Xia Zekai said.
The couple chatted for a while as if no one was around, and Xia Zekai hung up the phone.
Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo were not unhappy because Xia Zekai left them alone.
On the contrary, they all had a bit of envy on their faces. Zhang Yiming said: "Boss Xia is already married and has children. It's great."
"Does Mr. Zhang have a girlfriend? If so, get married and have children as soon as possible. Let me tell you, raising children is fun. Children are stupid, cute, and childish. They can make you laugh or cry." Xia Zekai said.
Started to show off.
When it came to his girlfriend, Zhang Yiming's pretty face looked a little shy. Before he could speak, Liang Rubo said: "Yiming already has a girlfriend, and she is a classmate of our university. They have a good relationship."
!”
"Oh, it's true. Your relationship is really enviable. I wish you a happier future and get married soon." Xia Zekai said.
Qicheng was just that big and there was nothing interesting about it, so Xia Zekai took them around.
But he also saw that Zhang and Liang were obviously not in the mood to hang out. When it was about five o'clock, Xia Zekai said, "I'll take you to eat some kebabs."
Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo felt it was quite fresh. Besides, they didn't know what to eat, so they finally agreed.
There is a place in the middle of Liuyuan Road that says ‘Laolonghe Barbeque’. There is a big yard inside. When they came over, there were already many cars parked here.
There are two rows of supported wooden shelves on the north side, and two shed sheep hang upside down on each shelf. The sheep's heads and limbs are gone, and they are taken to be processed separately. It is also a very good delicacy.
"That's it. I dare not say anything else. At least this mutton is pure." Xia Zekai chuckled.
Doing barbecue business is a complex matter, and quite a few businesses, in order to make profits, so-called mutton skewers and beef skewers are not necessarily mutton and beef.
I don’t feel at ease while eating.
Laolonghe BBQ relies on its "real ingredients" to stand up in this gap.
After all, there are still a lot of rich people these days, and everyone spends money just to eat and feel safe.
Lao Zhang and Lao Liang looked at each other, then looked at the stainless steel table in front of them, and the little dish that the store had just served, and they felt it was very novel.
"This is really the first time I've seen this thing. It's quite interesting." Zhang Yiming said with a smile.
At this moment, he had given up on investing, and was thinking about having a good meal and trying out what delicious food it was.
Xia Zekai directly ordered 3 kilograms of mutton, and asked the store to skewer the meat on large skewers. He also ordered a little pork belly with skin as a decoration, and got some vegetables, but didn't order anything else.
Waiting for the store to bring the half-cooked mutton skewers to the table, and two green onion dipping sauce packets, Lao Zhang took one skewer and looked at it: "Isn't it cooked yet?"
"Well, let's grill it ourselves." Xia Zekai slowly placed the half-cooked meat skewers on the small stove and spread it on a layer. He said, "It'll be quick, just wait a few minutes."
"Mr. Zhang, Gong Liang, please keep an eye on it. If it starts to smoke, turn it over quickly. I'll get some peanut butter and sesame paste."
"By the way, do you want to eat chili noodles?" Xia Zekai asked them.
The two of them were not opposed to eating chili peppers, but they were unfamiliar with the things Xia Zekai mentioned, so they nodded.
A few minutes later, Xia Zekai came back with two plates, each with three pieces of different dipping sauces.
He also pointed at the dipping ingredients and introduced them to the two of them, which one was peanut crisps, which one was sesame salt, and which chili powder was red. No matter how stupid you were, you knew this.
Xia Zekai went to get himself another plate, and he took up half of the plate of chili noodles.
Since he didn’t drink at noon, Xia Zekai thought about drinking some in the evening. Who knows that Zhang and Liang still didn’t drink?
The drinks prepared on the market are delicious, but they are made from pure pressed fruit pulp, which is a serious pure thing and is not the same thing."
He recalled the last time he brought Yu Shuping and Bian Ning here for dinner. It felt like it was a long time ago. Time flies so fast.
Xia Zekai turned the meat skewers over twice more, checked the color, and said, "It's done. Eat it while it's hot. It tastes better with the sauce."
While he was talking, he took a skewer and showed the two of them. He opened his mouth and tore off two pieces of meat. It was very exciting to eat.
Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo couldn't help but swallowed when they saw how delicious his food was, and quickly took two bites.
"Well, it tastes really good." The two of them praised.
Then, Xia Zekai changed his eating habits again. He tore open the cookie bag wrapped in a transparent plastic bag next to him, took out a particularly soft cookie, and said: "Put on some chives, put on the sauce, add a skewer of mutton, and...
Skewered pork belly is more delicious when rolled up."
As he spoke, he gave another demonstration.
The two of them learned from each other and had a lot of fun eating.
At this time, they also deliberately forgot that they came here to attract investment, and followed Xia Zekai to eat wantonly.
Xia Zekai also told them about the last time he invited Yu Shuping and Bian Ning to dinner here.
Hearing Xia Zekai talk about this matter himself, Liang Rubo confirmed that what Zhang Yiming told him in the afternoon was a fact. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Thinking about it, he himself despised people as laymen, but laymen could participate in Sina Weibo.
Bo's website opening press conference?
Xia Zekai arranged the place where they stayed at night. He arranged for the two of them to stay at Qicheng Hotel and took the initiative to pay for it. Zhang and Liang were not asked to pay for the whole process.
In his words, if the renovation of his family's new house had not just begun, he would have let the two of them live there.
Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo couldn't help but feel envious while listening to Xia Zekai's new house decoration.
Although they started a business in the capital, they had no money and could not afford to buy a house in the capital.
Two new members of society who have just graduated from university four years ago are also looking forward to the completion of the Jiujiufang project, so that they can live a life of "people are superior to others".
Xia Zekai chatted with them for a while and then left. He still had his wife and children waiting at home, and nothing was more important than spending time with the two grown men.
…
Let us say that after Xia Zekai left, Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo were discussing in the same room.
Lao Liang said: "Yiming, I didn't expect Boss Xia to be so hospitable. His reputation for hospitality is well-deserved."
"Yeah, but I didn't persuade you to drink. Did we make a mistake, or did the person telling us exaggerate?" Zhang Yiming's focus went astray.
But Liang Rubo corrected him: "Yiming, this boss Xia is not easy to fool."
"I also saw it. I wanted to talk to him about the price, but he didn't answer at all. He wanted me to give a low price. If it was too high, he wouldn't even bother." Zhang Yiming sighed.
He said: "Lao Liang, who else do you think we can look for?"
"There are many people who can find it, but not many people who are willing to bid." Although Liang Rubo came from a restrained background, he did not understand these things at all.
"Yes, you are right." Zhang Yiming was silent for a while.
He said: "I plan to make another price tomorrow. If he still doesn't agree, then we will go back."
"How much?" Liang Rubo asked.
Zhang Yiming stretched out five fingers and said: "5 million, give up 20%. This is my bottom line."
"We have no money now. We must get the money and push the product to the market as soon as possible. It is in our best interest to get the money one day earlier." Zhang Yiming said.
"Well, just think about it. I support your decision." Liang Rubo didn't say much else.
…
When Xia Zekai returned home, his wife had finished washing the two girls. The three of them had spread a purple yoga mat on the floor and were playing with stacking blocks on the yoga mat.
Seeing Xia Zekai come in, Yatou and Tongtong wanted to cover him, but as soon as they took two steps, they smelled the strong smell of barbecue. The two sisters couldn't stand it anymore. They covered their noses and said, "Dad, it's so difficult."
Smell it."
Xia Zekai chuckled and said, "You guys have fun first, I'm going to take a shower."
Luo Xiyun was still concerned about his investment and asked: "Zekai, how is your discussion going?"
Xia Zekai was still looking for clothes in the bedroom. He said without looking back: "It's not good. The price quoted by these two young men was too high. They just came up with a product framework and they quoted 10 million before it went to the market."
The price is so high, I really doubt whether the two of them know what these 10 million can accomplish."
"Well, then go take a shower quickly." Luo Xiyun felt certain.
After Xia Zekai finished washing and came out, the three of them moved from the yoga mats on the floor to the bed in the bedroom.
The girl was holding a transparent plastic bag to put away the toys on the bed, and Tongtong was helping.
From time to time, Luo Xiyun pointed out to them where there were remaining toys that had not been put away.
She didn't step forward to help either. This was a habit she had taught her two daughters to develop. She had nothing to do but cleaned up the mess she had made when she had enough fun.
Slowly develop good habits for them.
It was another Friday, and Xia Zekai sent the two sisters to the kindergarten. When he left, he found that there was still only the younger security guard in the security room, and Lao Wang was still missing.
Xia Zekai also said: "This old Wang is too presumptuous. How long has it been? Doesn't he have any idea in his mind? Does he still want to go to work?"
But Teacher Tian Qing in the kindergarten didn't say anything, and he couldn't cross this limit.
When he drove to Jingtong Food Factory, Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo had already taken a taxi.
Still waiting in Xia Zekai's office, after seeing Xia Zekai, Zhang Yiming was not in a hurry to directly quote his base price to Xia Zekai. He also thought about having a 'tug of war' with Xia Zekai later and finally adjusting the price bit by bit.
Come down.
But Xia Zekai stopped playing with them like this. He said, "Mr. Zhang, Gong Liang, I will take you somewhere later."
This time it was not just for fun, Xia Zekai drove them both to the new location of his factory.
The engineering construction company below Acme has started construction, and a fence has been built around the land belonging to Xia Zekai.
Workers were installing wooden stakes, pulling up a barbed wire fence outside, and starting to build a temporary office inside.
Xia Zekai pointed to this place and said to them: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Liang, this is my place. It has a total of 43.7 acres of land and cost me 10 million."
"This is real wealth. I don't deny that Jiujiu Fang may become very valuable in the future, but you have to eat it one bite at a time."
He said: "Let me tell you a story!"
Neither of them spoke. They looked at the area under construction and listened intently to what story Xia Zekai wanted to tell.
Xia Zekai told them: "It has been almost eight months since I rented a garage with a monthly rent of several hundred yuan, and I was making and selling melted beans in that garage, all by myself.
At that time, my monthly net profit was more than 10,000 yuan, and later it increased to 20,000 to 30,000 yuan."
"Then another month passed and I couldn't keep myself busy, so I hired an employee. I found that I was still too busy, so I started to recruit people again, but the small garage had a limited area and couldn't accommodate so many people.
I just changed my business to another place..."
"After that, it took me 8 months step by step to get to where I am today. I'm not afraid to tell you that it cost me 10 million to buy this land and 20 million to build this factory. There will also be various equipment in the future.
It’s a huge expense…”
"Even if I don't invest in you, if I invest this money elsewhere, I believe that I can get a generous return within a year. I don't know if you believe it or not?"
Xia Zekai narrowed his eyes and asked them softly.
Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo both seemed to understand what Xia Zekai wanted to say, but they also nodded subconsciously, believing it in their hearts.
