Tongdao Xu is at the renovation site of Ximen Yipin Hot Pot Restaurant, inspecting the renovation of the hot pot restaurant. Water pipes and wires have already been laid out here.
Designer Tong Tianzhi and secretary Tang Qing accompanied him.
Suddenly, the cell phone on his body rang.
Yes! He finally got a mobile phone.
Nowadays, he has more and more properties under his name, and someone may have something to report to him at any time. It would be very inconvenient to use a bb machine.
For work, he finally bought a mobile phone at the strong suggestion of his cousin Tan Shi.
A silver-gray Nokia candy bar phone.
By the way, there are more and more mobile phone brands on the market today, such as Motorola, Ericsson, Nokia, Sharp, Samsung, etc., which are becoming more and more popular.
Big Brother, which was still very impressive a few years ago, has gradually lost its limelight to mobile phones.
This is an era of rapid change.
After the call was connected, Zeng Xueyi's voice came from the phone, "Is it Mr. Xu?"
A few days ago, she took leave and hasn't returned to the company yet. Tongdao Xu didn't even know where she got his mobile phone number.
He just bought this phone two days ago.
"Well, it's me, Mr. Zeng? What's the matter?"
"Well, Mr. Xu...I, I may have to take a few more days off. I, I can't go back to the company for the time being..."
"Oh? Did Zeng always encounter something?"
Everyone has curiosity, and at this time, Comrade Xu would inevitably have some curiosity.
Zeng Xueyi: "Well, yes! Yes, yes..."
She hesitated, "It's the child's problem. My daughter was taken away by my father-in-law and mother-in-law. I have been busy with this matter for the past few days, but there is no result yet. I am going to find a lawyer..."
At this point, she exhaled and changed the topic, "Anyway, I may have to take a few days off, Mr. Xu, I'm sorry!"
My daughter was snatched away by her father-in-law and mother-in-law?
Tongdao Xu frowned before realizing what was probably going on.
Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for father-in-law or mother-in-law to rob the daughter-in-law's children. They are all family members, and there is no question of whether they can rob them or not.
But Zeng Xueyi has become a widow.
Her husband died.
Her father-in-law and mother-in-law may have the custody of their daughter with her.
After probably figuring out the key, Xu Tongdao was a little speechless.
I also feel a little sympathy for Zeng Xueyi’s experience.
This woman seems to be possessed by a weak spirit recently. She has been having bad luck one after another, and there is no one left.
"Okay, okay, I understand. Then you can concentrate on your work. You don't have to worry about the company. It doesn't matter when you finish your work and when you come back to work."
Anyway, even if she comes to work in the company, Tongdao Xu has no hope in her ability to work.
After all, she was just a full-time wife before, and her performance as the general manager of Meijia Decoration for a short period of time... was indeed unremarkable.
Therefore, when she asked for leave this time, Tongdao Xu readily agreed.
…
In the afternoon of the same day, Comrade Xu drove back to Shazhou alone to see Li Xiaoshan's research progress.
In the evening, he was not in a hurry to go back to the city, and knocked on Wu Yali's bed in the middle of the night... Uh, no! He knocked on her window.
Then he knocked on her bed with her.
…
Time flies.
day to day.
Many people's lives have not changed much. They live according to routine and live calmly.
Tongdao Xu, on the other hand, has been very busy.
Every morning I go to Meijia Decoration Company to review and approve documents and handle the company's affairs. In the afternoon, I sometimes go back to Daolin Barbecue in Shazhou to check and follow up on Li Xiaoshan's research progress; sometimes I go to the decoration site of Ximen Yipin Hot Pot Restaurant to observe the progress of the decoration;
Sometimes he would randomly go to an Internet cafe under his name to see how the Internet cafe was doing.
These things all require his energy to focus on.
At Meijia, he is currently the general manager, and he needs to make decisions on many matters.
Over at the barbecue restaurant, Li Xiaoshan, who has been researching hot pot recipes recently, is not completely reassured. He has to master what Li Xiaoshan has researched before he can be reassured.
He didn't dare to completely take over the decoration of the hot pot restaurant. After all, the investment was huge and it was the largest investment he had made since his rebirth.
The annual rent is 250,000 yuan, and the total decoration budget is more than 280,000 yuan. The two sums alone are more than 530,000 yuan.
Later, we have to recruit personnel, purchase various equipment and ingredients, etc., as well as publicity...
These all cost money.
With such a huge investment, he couldn't help but not be interested.
Because this is not only related to whether he will waste so much money after spending so much money, but also related to his layout for the future.
If the hot pot restaurant is successful, it will be logical to open branches and franchise stores in the future, and play the game of "endless descendants".
The financial future... is very promising.
On the contrary, if he wants to develop a plan to walk on two legs, he will have to give up.
Hmm...
That's not right. Since he took control of Meijia Decoration Company, his development path has no longer walked on two legs, but on three legs.
Anyway, missing one leg is definitely not good.
He doesn't want to fail.
As for the Internet cafe?
That is his current basic base, giving him the base camp for all his plans to continue to build blood.
There is absolutely no room for error in this area.
If he fails... all his current plans will face collapse.
Therefore, he also allocated time and energy to focus on this area.
He knows he is on the verge of playing with fire.
Once he loses control, all his hard work since his rebirth may be in vain.
Of course, high risk also comes with high reward.
If it can stabilize and ensure that it can survive this year smoothly without collapse, then it may have a bumper harvest next year.
For him, this is a big gamble.
This is the first time in his life that he has made such a big bet.
Very exciting.
There was no way out. He had already come this far, so he could only grit his teeth and push through. If he took a step forward, the sky would be brighter, if he took a step back... Although he would not be doomed, he would not be able to regain his strength for several years.
The psychological pressure is great.
The great psychological pressure caused him to gradually develop two habits.
One is to drink a cup of Erguotou every night before going to bed.
Not for anything else, just to have a good night's sleep after getting drunk.
Another habit... was that every time he returned to Shazhou and went to Daolin Barbecue to learn about Li Xiaoshan's research progress, he would not go back to the city that night, but would go to Wu Yali's place and bang on the bed with her. Every time
Can successfully relieve the pressure in his heart.
Wu Yali... gradually became synonymous with "stress-free" in his heart.
It has become a stress-free spiritual haven.
Until... "Small waist girl" Dong Feifei returned early. Her summer vacation had not ended yet, and it was still early for the new semester to start. She actually returned to Shuiniao City in advance. As soon as she came back, she came to see Xu Tongdao,
Then I officially moved into Xu Tongdao's dormitory - the room on the second floor of Ximen Road Internet Cafe No. 1.
As soon as she came, Comrade Xu went to see Wu Yali less often.
