Back to 2006

During dinner, Fang Jiahui touched Yang Xingyu's arm. When Yang Xingyu turned to look at her, she tilted her head toward the door and motioned for him to go out.

Yang Xingyu guessed that she had something to say, so he picked up more vegetables in the bowl, then stood up and walked out of the kitchen door with the rice bowl in hand.

Fang Jiahui also followed out with her job in hand.

Others eating in the kitchen saw this scene and exchanged glances with each other.

When Yang Xingyu and Fang Jiahui both left the kitchen, Cheng Bao laughed and asked, "What do you think they whispered when they went out?"

Jiang Jie smiled and said nothing.

Song Xiaoqiang said casually: "What's there to guess? It must be about today's investment and franchise meeting! I heard that many franchisees were recruited today, and Sister Fang will definitely report the details."

The others thought for a while, and many nodded in agreement.

Everyone was chatting happily.

Because seeing Yang Ji Roast Duck getting stronger and stronger, the future of these people is naturally bright. How can they be unhappy?

……

Outside the kitchen door, Yang Xingyu came to the middle of the yard with his rice bowl in hand, turned to look at Fang Jiahui behind him, "Sister, what's the matter?"

After asking, he took the rice into his mouth.

From today on, his net worth is at least over 10 million, but he still doesn't think about opening a small stove for himself every day and coming here to eat a big pot of rice with everyone every day. He thinks there is nothing wrong with it.

Because he had already eaten all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas in his original time and space.

After eating a lot of delicacies from mountains and seas, and even food from all over the world, he gradually found that the food he grew up eating was more comfortable to eat.

He thought it was a gastrointestinal problem.

The stomach and intestines inherited from his ancestors are definitely more adapted to the foods he has been used to eating for generations. As a person from an inland city, his stomach and intestines may not like seafood or food from other countries.

It doesn't matter to him whether the dishes are made delicately or crudely.

When he first studied cooking, it was not to satisfy his appetite for food.

What's more, eating a big pot of food with everyone every day can also bring him closer to everyone.

This is what he wants to keep.

If one day, everyone under him feels distant from him, then his failure may not be far away.

Fang Jiahui nodded and said with a smile: "Let me tell you about today's investment results first! A total of 42 new franchisees were signed today. Do you know this?"

Yang Xingyu hummed.

Fang Jiahui: "We only collected the deposit today, and we have to wait a few days for the balance to hopefully be received. Then you can ask your accountant Xiao Jiang. There are 42 franchisees, each with a franchise fee of 12, and the total is 504 million. This account is easy to calculate. However, according to the rules you announced, the first three franchisees who signed today will have some discounts on the franchise fee, as well as the various rewards you give to other franchisees. In the end, The franchise fee received is estimated to be only 500 million."

Yang Xingyu nodded, put a piece of roast duck into his mouth and chewed it.

Today’s big pot dish is roast duck stewed with cabbage and tofu.

For roast duck, if you want the skin to be crispy, you must sell it within two or three hours after it is cooked. The sooner it is sold, the crispier the skin will be. The later it is sold, the worse the crispy effect will be. .

For example, if the roast duck at noon is not sold out, it will have to be fried in a hot oil pan again in the afternoon. Even so, the skin of the re-fried roast duck will still not be crispy, and it can only make the skin slightly glossier and the aroma slightly better. Come out a little.

Moreover, compared with freshly baked roast duck, the skin of roast duck that has been fried for the second time will become wrinkled and black, and the color will be much darker.

Therefore, for the sake of the reputation of Yangji Roast Duck, Yang Xingyu had already announced that if the roast duck could not be sold out that day, he would take back the kitchen to make staff meals.

If you make it as a staff meal, add cabbage, tofu and braised soup to make it taste great.

In his memory, this seems to be one of the famous northern dishes in the book "Famous Chinese Dishes".

"The second thing is..."

When Fang Jiahui said this, he hesitated a little and looked at the big yard.

This large courtyard plus a small two-story building is not small in area, but it is a bit old.

"what?"

Seeing her hesitation, Yang Xingyu's curiosity was aroused.

Fang Jiahui smiled and said softly: "This second thing is not my business at first, but I see that you don't seem to have such a plan recently, so I just want to remind you."

Yang Xingyu became even more curious, "Sister, what is going on?"

Fang Jiahui looked at the two-story building in the yard, "Don't you think our company should buy this place now? You see, we have earned tens of millions of dollars from the last two investment promotion meetings, and this is our Yangji Roast Duck The headquarters is still rented, don’t you think it’s a little inconsistent with our company’s current strength?”

Buy this yard?

Yang Xingyu was a little surprised. He looked at the small building in front of him and then at the yard. He frowned and thought for a while, then quickly shook his head and smiled: "Forget it! Our company is booming now, and the landlord is not blind or deaf. I must have heard about it. If we proposed to buy this place at this time, the landlord would definitely ask us to pay a high price. It is not worth buying such an old yard at a high price!"

Fang Jiahui frowned, "You haven't even asked the landlord. What if the landlord is a decent person and doesn't charge a high price?" Yang Xingyu still shook his head, "No way! Everyone doesn't like money. When I rented here, I had dealings with the landlord. He doesn’t look like that kind of honest person.”

Before Fang Jiahui could speak, Yang Xingyu added: "Moreover, this is a village in the city, and the surrounding areas are well developed. Everyone can see that this place will be demolished sooner or later. The landlord is not a fool. He must be waiting for the demolition. Let's make a fortune. Under such circumstances, do we still want to buy this place at the normal price? Impossible!"

Fang Jiahui fell silent.

He frowned and thought for a while, then asked: "Then our company will always rent a house? Otherwise, would you consider finding a suitable place nearby to buy it? Then we can move the headquarters there?"

Yang Xingyu nodded and said with a smile: "This is a good suggestion, you can consider it."

Fang Jiahui's brows widened and a smile appeared on her face, "Then when do you plan to buy it? Do you want me to take the time to help you look for a suitable place?"

Yang Xingyu shook his head: "No hurry!"

Fang Jiahui was speechless, "Why are you not in a hurry again? Didn't you just say that my suggestion was good?"

Yang Xingyu tried hard to remember in which month this year the Apple smartphone was officially launched for sale?

But I can't remember it no matter how much I think about it.

I only vaguely remember that it should be this year.

However, based on common sense, he thought it wouldn't be winter.

Because the weather is cold in winter, there are far fewer people shopping. Apart from winter clothes and shoes, the effect of selling other items in winter may not be very good.

Therefore, he feels that the launch of Apple smartphones should be very close.

Thinking of this, he smiled and said to Fang Jiahui: "Sister, just wait a few more months! When we have more funds, we will consider buying a place for the company's headquarters. Don't worry! If nothing happens, it will definitely happen this year. purchase!"

"Really?"

Fang Jiahui looked at his expression carefully and suspiciously.

Yang Xingyu nodded.

Fang Jiahui breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I hope it's true! In fact, it's none of my business. The company is yours. I'm just giving you a suggestion. I definitely don't understand running a company as you do, but I I feel that running a company and being a human being are sometimes similar. For example, as a human being, if we dress in rags every day, we will definitely be looked down upon by others, right?"

Yang Xingyu smiled and nodded.

Fang Jiahui added: "I think the same is true for starting a company. If a company never has its own office space and still rents such an old yard, I think it will definitely be looked down upon by outsiders, which may also be detrimental to recruiting franchisees in the future. ,What do you think?"

Yang Xingyu felt that what his cousin said made sense.

"Yes, sister, believe me, we will definitely buy it within this year."

Fang Jiahui smiled happily when she saw that his statement did not seem to be false.

Then, he asked in a relaxed tone: "Hey, by the way, Xiaoyu, there is not much time before the school's final exam in the first half of this year. When you first persuaded me to come here to help you, you said that you would help me arrange for my son to be here." I went to a city school to study in junior high school, do you still remember this?"

Yang Xingyu always remembered this. When his cousin asked him about it, he nodded quickly, "Remember! Don't worry, nothing will go wrong with this matter. Even if I have to pay for it, I will definitely arrange for your son to attend junior high school in a nearby school." You can rest assured about this!"

A grown man should keep his word when he makes serious promises.

What's more, Fang Jiahui worked diligently at his place. Not only did she do her job seriously, she would also take the initiative to help him keep an eye on and supervise all the big and small things in the kitchen, which saved him a lot of worry.

Therefore, Yang Xingyu will definitely help her make arrangements for her son's education.

Besides, this is not difficult for him.

You know, Zhen Xin is still teaching at the No. 7 Middle School in the city, and there is no problem with his relationship with Zhen Xin. In this case, he asked Zhen Xin to help him make some arrangements and arrange for Fang Jiahui's son to be admitted to the No. 7 Middle School in the city. How difficult is it?

"Really?"

Fang Jiahui seemed a little doubtful.

The look in her eyes made Yang Xingyu feel puzzled, "No, sister, do you doubt this little thing? When have I ever lied to you? To make you so distrustful of me?"

Fang Jiahui smiled a little sheepishly, looked around, then looked at Yang Xingyu, lowered her voice and said, "I'm not looking at your girlfriend Xiao Zhen. She hasn't been to our place for a long time. I'm a little I'm worried that you two may have a conflict or break up, right? If you two break up, it might be difficult for my son to be transferred to the No. 7 Middle School where Xiao Zhen works."

Yang Xingyu: "..."

At this moment, Yang Xingyu was a little bit dumbfounded.

Seeing his cousin looking at him expectantly, waiting for his answer, he suddenly wanted to make her anxious, so he lowered his head and took a big bite of rice and vegetables.

Fang Jiahui frowned. Seeing that he had been immersed in cooking and never raised his head to answer her questions, she couldn't help but kick him in the calf and said angrily: "You want to kill me? Why are you so bad? You What a stinky Xiaoyu!”

Yang Xingyu took a breath of air.

Being kicked by her toes wearing leather shoes really hurt. (End of chapter)
