I was forced to start the second round because I was raised in poverty

Chapter 162 Doctoral Scholar
After the number of customers in the store decreased a little, Tang Li finally had some time to spare.

However, Tang Li did not come directly to Su Cheng's table. Instead, he answered a phone call and met someone at the door of the store.

Through the glass, Tang Li saw him greet the man enthusiastically, then welcome him into the cafe and walk straight towards them.

"Please allow me to introduce you."

"This is my uncle's son, my cousin."

Tang Li introduced Tang Ke and his relatives.

The four of them also looked at Tang Ke who was sitting down.

Tang Ke looks young, probably around 30 years old.

He was very tall, perhaps over 1.9 meters, and his slender frame held up his black aviator hunting jacket very well. He wore a stand-up collar white shirt underneath with a gray checkered vest.

Distressed washed work pants are tucked into brown Martin boots, and the gold frames of the square glasses are pressed against the high bridge of the nose, echoing the metal buckles of the jacket.

The corners of Tang Ke's eyes are sharp, and when he lowers his eyes, his thin eyelashes make him look a bit scholarly.

"Brother, what would you like to drink?"

It seemed that this wasn't Tang Ke's first time at the cafe. He glanced at the drinks ordered by Su Cheng and the others and said casually, "I'll have something simple. An iced Americano will do, a double shot."

"Oh ok."

After Tang Li helped Tang Ke sit down, he quickly went to the bar to start making the food and soon brought it to Tang Ke.

Tang Li was holding a thermos cup in his hand, but it didn't seem to contain plain water. Judging from the color and the cold steam coming out, it seemed to be iced American coffee.

"Cousin, let me introduce them to you too." Tang Li began to introduce Su Cheng and others.

Zhang Yangwen sat in his seat properly. Now there were six people sitting at the same table, a bit like their small group gathering, but the atmosphere was not as warm as that of a small group. Instead, they were a little uncomfortable with such seriousness.

"Is this your new colleague? I don't think I've seen him before." Tang Li was referring to the unfamiliar face Zhang Yangwen.

Su Cheng explained: "Yes, our new colleague."

He didn't use the word "intern" because there was no need.

Tang Ke and Tang Li sat sideways, so they were one body length away from the table, which made it convenient for them to cross their legs high.

Tang Ke took a sip of his iced Americano, then smiled and said to the four people, "Can I see your resumes?"

Su Cheng:?
Ye Li: ???
Qin Fen: ???
See...resume?
They are on a field trip, so please carry a resume with you.

Is Tang Ke trying to test their qualifications?
Producing a resume is not a problem, it is a small problem.

They did have clients who asked for their information and resumes before, but they were rare, mainly because they were not polite.

However, they can understand this concern, and they will give it to customers as long as they want to see it.

But not today.

Because if they have to go through that process again, there is no need to come to the cafe to talk. They should go to the company to talk.

Su Cheng and others thought that Tang Li was their old customer and tacitly acknowledged their strength, so they came here to discuss business directly.

Several people looked at Tang Li at the same time.

Tang Li was a little embarrassed, but he agreed to Tang Ke's request.

Finally, Ye Li had to take out the tablet he carried with him: "Mr. Tang, we only have the electronic version, you can take a look."

"Uh-huh."

Tang Ke took the tablet from Ye Li and looked at it very seriously.

While watching, he also looked up at the four people, as if Su Cheng and others were the interviewees, and Tang Ke was the interviewer in charge of them today.

He spent more than ten minutes looking at it, and from time to time he would ask Ye Li, Qin Fen and others some questions about the experience on the resume.

Su Cheng was getting a little impatient and was about to speak when Ye Li quietly kicked his calf, signaling Su Cheng to keep quiet.

Ye Li spoke for Su Cheng: "Mr. Tang, have you finished reading it?"

"Well, I've finished reading it." Tang Ke said and handed the tablet back to Ye Li.

Tang Ke had a deeper understanding of the four of them.

A Stanford graduate who is consistently ranked in the top two by QS.

The other graduated from Cornell University, which is usually ranked in the top ten in QS.

Cornell University is not as famous as Stanford, but it is also one of the Ivy League.

The most popular method is probably the Cornell Note-Taking Method, which originated from this university and uses the R5 recording framework for thinking and application. As for what is Yuzhou University?

Tang Ke originally had a good impression of Su Cheng and Ye Li, but after reading their resumes, he felt that his judgment was wrong.

He tried hard to recall the qualifications of Yuzhou University.

This university doesn’t seem to be a 985 university, right?
There is only one 211 university in the entire Yuzhou.

These two people don’t even have a master’s degree, they just have a bachelor’s degree?
Not even a double first-class university?
However, what confused Tang Ke was that the two people with backgrounds from prestigious overseas universities were actually ordinary team members, while Ye Li and Su Cheng were actually K8 and K7.

Tang Ke asked with a malicious smile, "I didn't expect that the Dihao Group also ranks people based on seniority?"

Ye Li didn't know what he was talking about at first, but then she realized what he was talking about. She could only smile awkwardly in response, "Uh, our specific personnel transfers were arranged by the higher-ups, not by seniority as you mentioned, Mr. Tang."

"oh oh."

Su Cheng was already very unhappy at this point.

But Tang Li's "questioning" continued.

"Was it also the case you helped my cousin with last time?"

Ye Li replied: "Yes, it's us."

"Whose idea was it exactly?"

Ye Li became cautious: "Mr. Tang, is there any problem?"

Tang Ke suddenly smiled and waved his hand: "No problem, no problem. I think you guys are doing great, so I want to know who it is."

The three people involved were her, Su Cheng, and Qin Fen, but the specific plan was made by Su Cheng.

But Ye Li didn't tell Tang Ke about this. She also felt that Tang Ke was being a little secretive: "It was our joint idea."

Tang Ke understood enough. Ye Li wanted to get to the point as soon as possible: "Mr. Tang, what is your request for us to come here? Could you please tell us briefly?"

Tang Li was also a heartless person: "Sure, I've wanted to say it for a long time, but I didn't have the nerve to interrupt you."

He began to talk non-stop.

Tang Li is still the same.

There was a lot to say.

But these three sentences don't hit the point.

After talking for several minutes, we still haven't gotten to the point.

Tang Ke, who was standing next to him, felt helpless after hearing this.

Ten minutes later.

Su Cheng and others finally understood what Tang Li meant.

To put it simply.

After he listened to Sheng Yue's suggestions last time, the number of customers increased exponentially. Now the store is packed every day, which is beyond Tang Li's imagination. So he wants to open another branch and invite them to come over for advice and suggestions.

Su Cheng's expression eased a lot.

Even fools can be smart sometimes.

He felt that Tang Li had learned his lesson this time.

If you look for them from the beginning, you can greatly avoid your losses.

"I understand, Mr. Tang, you want to open another branch."

Ye Li smiled and nodded.

“Yes, in fact, we have already started to do it.”

Su Cheng:......

He took back his words praising Tang Li.

Ye Li couldn't help but be surprised. She gestured for Qin Fen to take out a pen and paper to take notes. "Mr. Tang, could you please tell me more about what you've done? Where are you at now?"

"Uh, I've already taken down the upstairs."

"Upstairs?"

"Correct!"
