Chapter 828 Give you one million annual salary, follow me! (1250
At noon, they went to a nearby star hotel for dinner together. Xia Zekai took care of his grandfather's appetite and ordered a batch of soft and delicious food, and then ordered another batch according to the situation of his uncle and parents.
The eight-treasure rice, Jinyumantang, blueberry yam, and pumpkin-flavored taro balls that the children like to eat were not left behind, and I ordered two more.
As for Xia Zekai and his brothers, they just came casually.
Instead, he handed the recipe to his wife and asked his two sisters-in-law and cousin to order more dishes.
The uncle just came out of the hospital some time ago, and his two sons had emptied all the wine in his residence. Today at noon, he wanted to take advantage of his father's visit to have a drink, but his two daughters-in-law looked at him. I was too embarrassed to speak.
Finally, I drank green tea.
Xia Weicheng didn't drink either. He said to his elder brother Xia Weiguo: "Brother, why don't you stay here for a while? You've been in Qicheng for a long time and I'm not familiar with this place. Tell me something." ."
"It just so happens that Zekai has more rooms here. Let's have a good chat, brothers."
Before Xia Weiguo could say anything, Xia Yunfei and Xia Yunhui realized that this was a good idea...
But there is no need to live with my cousin. Xia Yunhui said: "Dad, why don't you go live with me and come over to talk to my grandpa and second uncle during the day."
The two brothers were really afraid that their father would go back and buy alcohol secretly, and then fall ill again.
Their father suffered from cerebral thrombosis this time, which shocked them both, but the reason for the illness made them both sad.
Before Xia Weiguo could say anything, his daughter-in-law Dong Fei said, "Dad, please stay here for a while. You can help us take Amy and Jingrui to school. After school, I can go to work."
This is true, her father Dong Guochuan has not yet recovered, and her mother Li Liyun is still taking care of her in the hospital.
If her father-in-law stayed here and could really help pick up and drop off the children, she wouldn't have to ask for leave anymore.
After seeing Amy and Jingrui off, my father-in-law could still ride his bike to the villa area to chat with his second uncle, which was quite nice.
Xia Weiguo couldn't resist the persuasion, and he felt a little moved in his heart, so he said, "Then I'll stay here for a while."
"Uncle, when you feel better, I will get you some good red wine. Drink a little less every day, and it won't be a big problem." Zhao Ting said.
Zhao Yan slapped him directly: "Don't cause trouble for me if you have nothing to do. Uncle can't drink now."
If someone else had slapped him, Zhao Ting would have slapped him back immediately, but since this was his sister, there was nothing he could do.
…
After lunch, he returned to the Purple Jade Garden Villa. Xia Zekai arranged for Wang Yi to buy some watermelons, bring them back and soak them in water with ice to remove the heat inside.
He asked his wife to take it directly to the children and sister-in-law when it was at room temperature.
"Zekai, I heard that your company wants to purchase a large amount of dried fruits. The city has asked farmers in Zhoucheng District to plant dried fruits. Do you know this?" The eldest brother Xia Yunfei said one thing.
Xia Zekai already knew from Wang Hongsheng that Qicheng had chosen a district and county as a pilot unit, but he really didn't know that Zhoucheng was chosen in the end.
Smiling, he said: "Brother, I will definitely accept it, but how did you know?"
"You remember the short and fat guy who drove the car with me, right?" When I received the notice, I stopped planting corn and planted dried fruits. They also said that when the finished products are produced, Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. will purchase them at a higher price than the market price."
"When I heard that this is your company, isn't it?" The expression on the eldest brother Xia Yunfei's face was particularly wonderful.
When he first heard the news, he couldn't even recover.
As soon as Big Brother mentioned this, the other brothers all looked over.
I really didn't expect this.
From the tone of Big Brother's words, I can tell that Xia Zekai is awesome. Every move of his company can affect the actions of a district or county.
"Brother Kai, you are so awesome!" Qi Lixin praised sincerely.
Xia Zejiang remembered what his brother had said at the beginning, and he thought that his brother had now become a business card of this city!
"Now Zekai's every move can affect the local policies in Qicheng. You guys have to work hard," Xia Yunhui said.
Xia Zejiang said 'hmm' and said, "I just brought the packaging box factory to the road, but I'm exhausted."
He also asked with great interest: "Brother, when you first started your business, I couldn't even imagine what you relied on to sustain it. During Labor Day, I almost collapsed."
Xia Zekai looked at him with a smile and said, "How else can you hold on? Just remember that if you don't work hard, your children will have nothing to eat or wear, and you will have no dignity. It's that simple!"
"If I hadn't worked hard at that time, my family of four would have been crowded into an 80-square-meter house. When there were more people in the family, I would have to sleep on the sofa. Your sister-in-law wouldn't dare to eat, buy, or wear clothes. She just couldn't wait for a dollar.
Split it into two and spend it all, think about what day it will be."
"I remember one time I got sick and I fought hard for five days. I didn't dare to go to the hospital at all..."
"Snapped!"
Qi Lixin slapped his thigh, and he said with some excitement: "Brother Kai is absolutely right. I was earning four to five thousand yuan a month, and after paying off the mortgage of more than fifteen hundred yuan, I still had the rest.
You still have to pay a ridiculous amount of fees, and the remaining two or three thousand are just the expenses for the family. I don’t dare to buy them. I usually have to choose the cheap ones when I see fruits. Sometimes I’m tight, so
Just use a credit card, forget it."
"I remember that when I started my own business secretly, I used credit cards to get the money. I didn't dare to tell Yan'er for fear that she would worry."
"It failed at the beginning. How desperate I was at the time. Speaking of which, it was Brother Kai who gave me some advice and I turned around. Otherwise, I wouldn't even be able to change my credit card."
Xia Zejiang paused for a while and suddenly realized that he lacked such an experience.
Each of these brothers has come out of the most desperate place, and now they are not afraid of any difficulties.
But as soon as I started my own business, I received stable orders from my elder brother’s company and money from my elder brother. These are conditions that 99% of entrepreneurs do not have.
If there is survivorship bias in entrepreneurship, Xia Zejiang feels that he is exactly the type who survived from the beginning.
But it was too easy to obtain, which made him a little anxious when he was unable to make standard samples during the product prototyping stage, and when production was still delayed, the hired workers resigned. He had to bear such a little setback.
It's about to collapse.
But this setback is nothing compared to my eldest brother, cousin-in-law and others.
Big brother Xia Yunfei patted him on the shoulder and said: "Zejiang, don't think too much about it. You, in one word, are called to stand on the shoulders of giants to do your business. You can't be like us and have to be taller."
It’s about the goal, you know.”
"You have to push yourself all the time. We brothers will set a goal for you today." Big Brother said this and asked him: "You are making packaging boxes now, right."
"Yeah!" Xia Zejiang responded.
The big brother said: "If you don't mention anything else, first make yourself the largest packaging materials factory in Qicheng. Can you do this?"
"I..." Xia Zejiang lost his confidence and felt very difficult to hear.
The second brother said: "Forget it, don't embarrass Zejiang. Just ask me to spend enough money. Everything should be done step by step. If Zejiang can really get to that step later, it will be his ability."
On Luo Xiyun's side, the topic has shifted from the children to Shen Jiayi.
Sister-in-law Li Aijuan also mentioned: "Xiao Shen, how are you preparing for your wedding?"
"Sister-in-law, there is nothing to prepare. The hotel and the emcee have been booked, but the motorcade has not been booked. The rest is to tell the relatives at home and they will come over then," Shen Jiayi said.
Luo Xiyun said: "There is no need to order a fleet. We still have a few cars at home. You can use that car as a wedding car when the time comes. Let your brother help with the rest. Why can't we pull out a fleet of cars?"
The second sister-in-law looked at her belly and asked her: "Xiao Shen, how are you? You two have been together for such a long time. Is there anything going on?"
After all, Shen Jiayi was not as open-minded as her sisters-in-law. After hearing this, her face turned red with embarrassment. She quickly waved her hands and said in a mosquito-like voice, "Not yet!"
"Oh, women are like this. They all want to be mothers. Jiayi, why are you so shy?" The sister-in-law teased her, and Shen Jiayi couldn't stand it even more.
…
The next day is the Dragon Boat Festival holiday.
Xia Zekai didn't go to the company. He arranged for Wang Yi to buy an electric wheelchair with the most complete functions yesterday afternoon. After exercising this morning, after waiting for his grandfather to get up, he used the wheelchair to push his grandfather to the park opposite the villa area.
.
At this time, compared to the following years, the traffic flow on this road was relatively less. However, as Qisheng Lake Park became more and more beautiful, there were quite a few people coming to play, and there were people running here in the morning for morning exercises.
More.
If you come over and take a look, you can see many people wearing "xx Marathon" short-sleeved shirts, walking as fast as flying.
Xia Zekai watched carefully for a while. He felt that if he ran up there, he would not be much slower than these people. The confidence in his heart came back.
After arriving here, Xia Shande no longer sat in a wheelchair. He walked slowly with a cane as a form of exercise.
Xia Zekai was afraid that his grandfather would lose his balance, so he followed him. Cui Xiaofeng, who had followed him, pushed his wheelchair and walked slowly behind.
Xia Shande said to him: "Zekai, you don't go to work."
"Grandpa, today is Saturday, it is also the Dragon Boat Festival, and the whole country is on holiday. Look at the number of children here in the park." Xia Zekai pointed not far away and said.
There were many children there, under the supervision of their parents, lying on the railings to feed the goldfish in the water.
As Xia Zekai watched this scene, he suddenly thought of the time when the three brothers went to the reservoir to play together and happened to rescue Wang Hongsheng's son from the lake.
It's a pity that similar tragedies have happened more than once, but many people still can't remember it and always feel that this kind of tragedy will never happen to them.
After Xia Zekai helped his grandfather to the other side, he shouted to the group of people: "Everyone, please be safe and don't let the children fall in. Someone fell in here a few days ago. The water is quite deep.
Fortunately it’s okay”
"Okay, thank you brother for reminding me." Someone heard it and immediately called their children to leave.
But some people complained: "Mind your own business!"
When he met such a person, Xia Zekai didn't bother to argue with him and just helped his grandfather away.
Two days later, Qicheng News Channel reported an incident.
On the first day of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, a tragedy occurred in Qisheng Lake Park, which was under construction. Two children accidentally fell into the lake and disappeared while playing.
Because the park was still under construction, various rescue facilities were incomplete, and parents failed to rescue in time. As a result, one of the children missed the best rescue time and died on the spot. After the other child was sent to the hospital, the rescue was ultimately ineffective and he died.
Already.
The news channel of Qicheng TV Station specifically reported this incident. The host also called on parents to take good care of their children as the summer vacation approaches and avoid children coming into contact with dangerous places such as rivers and lakes.
Qisheng Lake Park was also temporarily closed for a week because of this incident. It is said that the construction team is installing danger warning signs.
When Xia Zekai was having dinner with his family at home in the evening, he saw the news and laughed it off.
Xia Shande also saw the news, and he asked with some distress: "Zekai, did we go for a walk in the park that day?"
"Grandpa, we went, but some people just didn't listen." Xia Zekai said.
Hearing what his grandson said, Xia Shande remembered his grandson's kind words to those parents that day. Some of them listened and took their children away.
Some people didn't listen at all and blamed their grandson for being 'nosy'.
What can such a person say?
…
When I spend time with my family, I feel that my time is very fulfilling.
Xia Zekai took his grandfather out for fun every day, so Xia Zekai spent less time with Yatou and Tongtong.
It was as if the book had just turned the page and the long vacation was over.
Luo Xiyun went to work, and Xia Zekai also went to the company.
Yan Jinghua from IBM Consulting Services Department called Xia Zekai and said she wanted to talk to him.
After arriving at the company, before Xia Zekai went to the office, Yan Jinghua stopped him downstairs.
"Boss Xia, do you have time now?" Yan Jinghua asked him.
"Okay, Mr. Yan, what's so urgent?" he asked.
Yan Jinghua said: "Boss Xia, I found a problem. Most of our company's managers rely on experience management without actual management theory knowledge. They don't even know various management tools and can't do lean improvement. Personally, I
I think this is a very big problem, and if we don’t deal with it now, there will be big trouble later.”
"Mr. Yan, do you think there is a better solution?" Xia Zekai asked him.
He also knew that this matter must be very troublesome, but since Yan Jinghua brought it up, he must have a better way.
Sure enough, Yan Jinghua said: "I suggest that all managers of Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. be given a systematic management training course in batches. In this regard, our company has relevant training content."
"How much?" Xia Zekai asked him directly.
Yan Jinghua didn't even react, but then he realized that Xia Zekai had misunderstood and thought he was promoting IBM's products?
"Boss Xia, I think you misunderstood. This training course is within the scope of our full service this time. I am just here to ask for Boss Xia's opinion. If Boss Xia agrees, we will notify the on-site managers in several batches next time.
A comprehensive system management training course for mid-level managers and senior managers.”
"I believe that after our training, they will be better able to solve the problems currently encountered by the company." Yan Jinghua said.
Xia Zekai didn't even think about it and said directly: "I agree."
He said: "Mr. Yan, let's do this. I'll ask Wang Yewei, the manager of our company's human resources department, to contact you. You will make a connection later and try to complete the training of the company's managers as soon as possible."
"Okay, that's what I mean. Our company's managers have kept up with the pace ideologically, and we will solve problems faster and more efficiently." Yan Jinghua did not deny this.
Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. spends 3.8 million yuan every month to ask them to come and help revise, improve, and upgrade the company's existing management processes to help Jingtong Development build an information factory. They must not just mess around, they must come up with their
Come with your own stuff.
For them, the more the managers of Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. know, the easier it will be for them to solve problems. This is a win-win situation.
After talking about this matter, Yan Jinghua was ready to go to the scene and continue working.
Xia Zekai suddenly remembered something and stopped Yan Jinghua, who was about to leave, and asked him: "Mr. Yan, how much money do you get every year from the IBM Enterprise Consulting Services Department?"
"This..." Yan Jinghua didn't know why Xia Zekai asked, but he didn't say it out of confidentiality.
Xia Zekai asked again: "Is it three hundred thousand a year?"
Yan Jinghua still had a confident smile on his face, smiling without saying a word.
Xia Zekai understood. With this number, he asked again: "Does Mr. Yan have 500,000 a year?"
Yan Jinghua smiled, but the smile on his face faded a bit. This change was obvious.
Xia Zekai understood again that Yan Jinghua's annual income does not exceed this amount.
"Does Boss Xia have anything else to do? If nothing happens, I will go to the production site for a walk." Yan Jinghua said.
The smile on Xia Zekai's face was particularly bright. The next moment, he said: "Mr. Yan, I will give you one million a year, how about you come and help me?"
"..." Yan Jinghua suddenly heard this number, and his heartbeat slowed down by half a beat.
To be honest, this year's income has more than doubled his current income, and he is really excited.
Xia Zekai did not rush him, but with a warm smile on his face, he said: "Mr. Yan, why don't you think about it carefully and don't agree in a hurry."
Seeing that Xia Zekai had entered the office building, Yan Jinghua fell into deep thought this time.
He didn't take Xia Zekai seriously at first. He always felt that a boss like Xia Zekai who came from a wild background relied on good luck to get to the forefront of policy. Coupled with a bit of personality charm, he gathered a group of like-minded people under him.
People, everyone worked together to make the company bigger and stronger.
But management is a science, and not all problems can be solved by loyalty.
The differences in opinions among these people who worked hard together have become more and more serious, so much so that now, the internal management problems of Mastery Development Co., Ltd. have been exposed.
But Xia Zekai's actions just now made him realize that this was not the case. Xia Zekai made him a little unpredictable.
"One million? Dig me?" Yan Jinghua thought, to be honest, his heart moved.
