Chapter 229 New Year's Eve Dinner, Gong Xi Fa Cai! (4/5) 60,000
At about 3:30 in the afternoon, Comrade Xu, with the help of Ge Lianghua and Xi Dongyang, prepared today's New Year's Eve dinner.
It's a whole-sheep feast.
This is a way he can think of to thank everyone and reward everyone.
In recent months, whether it is Xu Tonglin, Ge Lianghua, Xi Dongyang, Cao Min, Huang Mei, or Fang Fang, they have worked very hard, and Comrade Xu has seen it all.
Although the wages and benefits he gave them were not bad, they worked really hard. As the big boss of this store, Xu Tongdao thought that he should express this on this New Year's Eve.
If he pretends to be dead when it's time to win over people's hearts, why should he expect these people to still work hard for him in the future?
A complete whole-sheep feast is not cheap. He sells it here for 188 yuan a table.
Zhang Fangfa’s Zhiweixuan even sold for 388 per table.
But Comrade Xu is not stingy in this regard.
He likes this principle of being lenient to others and strict to oneself.
He can usually just cook some Yangchun noodles to fill his stomach, but to thank and reward his employees, he is willing to spend a lot of money.
Besides, their store has been selling whole sheep feast for a long time. None of the people in his store have had a complete whole sheep feast, including himself.
Today is New Year's Eve, and he happens to have time this afternoon.
Then make a table!
lobby.
Two dining tables were put together, and a whole-sheep feast was served with twelve dishes, each one filling the table.
The bowls, chopsticks and wine glasses were all set, as were the wine and beverages. Comrade Xu invited everyone to take their seats.
Everyone looked at this New Year's Eve dinner, and everyone was smiling.
Ge Lianghua: "You didn't expect that, did you? Even though none of us can go home to celebrate the New Year tonight, our New Year's Eve dinner is no worse than what we have at home, right? Haha..."
Xu Tonglin also warmly greeted everyone to take their seats as a small shareholder.
Huang Mei, the dishwashing aunt, took her seat and sighed: "I didn't expect such an expensive whole-sheep banquet. We also have the opportunity to eat at the table. The boss is so willing!"
Cao Min smiled, showing her white teeth, and agreed: "Yes! It's a bit wasteful to give us such expensive food!"
Fang Fang: "It would be nice if there were some vegetarian dishes, these are all meat..."
Xi Dongyang didn't smile much, but he also expressed a rare opinion today, "Xiaofang! You call this the worry of happiness, right? If I really give you a table of vegetarian dishes during the Chinese New Year, you probably won't think so.
.”
Huang Mei glanced at her daughter Fang Fang, "That's right! You damn girl can't speak, just stop talking! No one will think you are mute!"
Xu Tongdao picked up the bottle and poured wine for everyone in person. Listening to everyone's chatter, he said with a smile: "Everyone knows how busy the store is in normal times. I don't have the time to do this for everyone."
Many dishes, thank you for your hard work!
I'm sorry that I can't let you all go home to celebrate the New Year today. I hope that today's New Year's Eve dinner will satisfy everyone, Fang Fang! If you want to eat vegetarian food, it's okay. After today, there will be something for you to eat! Haha, come on
! Pour your own drinks! Let’s raise a glass together first. Fate allows us to do things together, and it is also fate that allows us to sit together and have such a New Year’s Eve dinner on this important day. Otherwise, I
I won’t say any more. Anyway, thank you all for your hard work over the past few days. Come on! Let’s raise a glass! I hope that in the new year, we can still live in harmony as a family. Come on! Let’s do it!!”
It's not like Comrade Xu doesn't know how to say nice things.
But most of the time, he wasn't in the mood to talk.
It always feels too fake.
But today is New Year's Eve, and he holds 90% of the shares in this small store. He should say something, both emotionally and rationally.
Before he finished speaking, everyone had already raised their glasses.

The smiling faces that caught Xu Tongdao's eyes made him feel very good. He raised his neck and drank the white wine in his glass.
Then it was so spicy that he grinned.
The atmosphere at the table was very good.
Ge Lianghua and Xu Tonglin are both talkative and lively. With them cooperating in creating the atmosphere, the atmosphere is bound to be the same.
The dishwashing aunt Huang Mei may be because of her age. Although her education level is not high, she is very motivated to say nice things, which also has the effect of livening up the atmosphere.
As for Cao Min, she is a young woman, not so shy, and is actively participating in everyone's conversations.
Even Fang Fang, who is usually a bit introverted, seemed a bit active tonight.
The most boring thing is probably playing Dongyang.
Comrade Xu usually doesn't talk much, but tonight he tried his best to greet everyone.
More than an hour passed, and it was almost five o'clock. As Comrade Xu had expected, the streets were still deserted, with no one around.
Not a single customer entered their store.
But they had almost finished today's New Year's Eve dinner. Comrade Xu smiled, put down the chopsticks in his hands, unzipped his cotton-padded jacket, and took out a few red envelopes from his arms.
He stood up and said to everyone: "I'm giving out red envelopes! On New Year's Eve, everyone stayed with me in this store, so I should show some respect, right?"
With that said, he smiled and handed the first red envelope to Fang Fang, "Xiao Fang! This is yours, the money is not much, don't be too little! Happy New Year!"
Fang Fang was surprised, "You sent it to me first? Thank you, boss! Thank you, boss!"
Her surprised look made everyone laugh.
Comrade Xu was also amused by her, and he joked: "Hey, Xiaofang, that's not right! The boss sends you a New Year's red envelope. You shouldn't say thank you to the boss. According to the rules, you should say 'Gong Xi Fa Cai', haha..."
Fang Fang was a little confused, and the others were also a little surprised.
Cao Min: "Is that so? I don't know either."
Xu Tonglin: "I don't know either."
Ge Lianghua laughed, "Don't talk about you guys, I've been out there for so many years and I've never heard of this!"
Huang Mei quickly winked at Fang Fang and scolded with a smile: "You silly girl! Why don't you say congratulations on getting rich? The boss has already taught you!"
Fang Fang woke up from her dream and immediately said "Congratulations on getting rich" to Comrade Xu with a shy smile.
Tongdao Xu shook his head with a smile and handed the second red envelope to Cao Min, "Sister Cao, this is yours, don't take it too little! Happy New Year!"
Cao Min immediately stood up and stretched out her hands to receive the red envelope. Because she had drunk some wine, her white face was as red as a peach blossom.
"Congratulations on getting rich, boss!"
She learned quickly.
Red envelopes were handed out one after another from Tongdao Xu's hand. Everyone except himself had one.
The money in each red envelope is neither more nor less. The money in each red envelope is one hundred yuan.
During the Chinese New Year, what he promised to give everyone was double wages and bonuses, so he could only give so much of today's red envelope.
