I have a sea in ancient times

Chapter 258 I Have a Girlfriend
(This chapter is more than 4000 words.)
After Zhang Xiaoli left the coffee shop, Lu Hai did not leave, but rested on the sofa of the coffee shop.

He checked the time, it was only eleven o'clock, and he made an appointment with Mr. Li at three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still four hours left. Go back and take a nap.

Lu Hai picked up his mobile phone and played a few games to pass the boring time.

It just so happens that this restaurant provides simple lunches, including pasta and steak. Lu Hai has eaten it before, and the taste is not bad.

When Lu Hai was playing the game, the waiter in the shop really had a big opinion on him. He thought that this unsightly customer would leave soon.

I didn't expect to play games in the store, and look at the other people in the store. Is there anyone like him? Which one doesn't bring a notebook and some plans to make forms.

The worst one is also talking about business, he is the most idle person, sitting in an ugly posture, and has no appearance at all.

Zhang Quan also felt that he cared too much about this customer. This was not the attitude a boss should have, but for some reason, he was just upset with him, and he was just jealous that he had such a beautiful girlfriend.

After playing a few games, Lu Hai shouted, "Waiter."

"Is there something wrong?" Zhang Quan walked over.

"Bring me a plate of spaghetti with beef and black pepper, and get me a sparkling coffee."

"Is there anything else you need?"

"Nothing."

When ordering, Zhang Quan still kept smiling as much as possible. After all, this is his profession and he cannot bring his personal emotions into it.

And right now.

A new batch of customers came to the store, and it was almost time for dinner. Indeed, some office workers would come to the store to eat steak and pasta.

"welcome."

Zhang Quan's original ideal was to be a "self-baked coffee shop", which only sold coffee and some bread, but after half a year of operation, he found that the financial bills were all in the red.

The monthly rent here is 3 yuan per month, and the staff expenses, plus medical and social insurance, add up to about 3 yuan.

These are real expenses, and the property fees and water, electricity and sewage treatment fees are not included here.

In addition, the raw materials they use are relatively good, and they are all bought back from Neon Country. In fact, the profit of each cup of coffee is not very high.

Although he has gained a reputation, he knows the real situation. In the past few years of opening a coffee shop, Zhang Quan often suffers from insomnia, ideals and reality are like enemies.

One party will always be beaten to the ground.

In the end, Ideal was the first to be beaten to the ground, and a pure coffee shop could not afford to support this shop.

Later, he added some pasta, steak and diet light food, which made the coffee shop's accounts look a little better.

Among them, the profit of pasta and light weight food is the highest. The profit of pasta is 100%, while the profit of light weight food is as high as 300%.

Just some vegetable leaves, throw in a few slices of avocado, then add some chicken nuggets, sprinkle with a little Thousand Island sauce, and you can sell more than 30 servings.

And those female white-collar workers in CBD prefer this kind of simple food to fast food.

But today, when shop rents are getting more and more expensive, to be honest, Zhang Quan feels that he will not be able to hold on any longer. If he says it, people may not believe it.

As the boss, he doesn't earn as much money as the employees in the store.

Those friends who started a business with him have now bought several houses and changed several cars, and although he is well-known.

People in the circle call him Boss Zhang.

But in fact, he doesn't even have a house in Licheng, and he rents in an old community, and he only takes the bus to work.

Wrong choice, hard work in vain!

He planned to post the transfer in the afternoon and post it on the Internet by the way, at least to earn back the transfer fee and the decoration money.

Lu Hai is very satisfied with the pasta here. The chefs here are very skilled and the ingredients are very authentic.

Speaking of which, Lu Hai hesitated many times when he came to eat at this restaurant. After all, a meal would cost at least [-] bucks.

It was a luxury to eat here with his meager salary when he was at work, but with his current assets, let alone eating here, it would be no problem to buy this place.

Speaking of which, when Lu Hai used to work here, he really had the idea of ​​buying this place, and he didn't know why he wanted to buy it, maybe he just wanted to buy it.

Just when Lu Hai was halfway through eating.

Hearing a familiar voice suddenly, Lu Hai raised his head and happened to find three acquaintances.

The other party also looked at him in surprise.

"Lu Hai, why are you here?"

"It's really Lu Hai."

"They're all back here, and you don't call us, you are heartless."

Lu Hai scratched his head in embarrassment, and looked at the three women in front of him, all of whom were colleagues from the former company.

The chubby one on the left is from the Finance Department, named Li Shiguang, the more handsome one in the middle is from the Administration Department, named Che Ziyi, and the other is from the Human Resources Department. Only this person, Lu Hai can't remember her name.

"Are you alone?"

Lu Hai nodded.

"Don't mind if we sit here."

"welcome."

Perhaps because of his handsome looks, Lu Hai has always had a good relationship with women in the company. Almost all the girls treat him very well, but judging from his appearance, he is considered a high-quality stock.

Among them, the one named Che Ziyi had a little bit of meaning for him, but she never found out.

When we meet again.

She looked very surprised, her eyes had been staring at Lu Hai, she hadn't seen him for half a year, and the change was quite big, she used to feel that her skin was very fair, and she looked very refined.

Now the skin is obviously darker, but it looks healthier, and the body is also much stronger, giving people a very sunny and powerful feeling.

After the three women sat down.

Zhang Quan, the owner of the coffee shop, has black lines all over his forehead.

These three female customers have always been regular customers in the store. He has been paying attention to that girl with long black, straight and sweet appearance for a long time.

"Too unscientific."

"This guy is from Qidian Orphanage."

"Lu Hai, where did you go after you resigned? I heard that you became an anchor, but it seems that you haven't updated for a long time." Li Shiguang asked.

"I'm selling seafood." Lu Hai replied.

"Is it really selling seafood?" Li Shiguang said pleasantly, "Then I'll buy seafood from you directly. Is there any discount?"

"It's necessary, Sister Li asked me to buy it, and I'll give you a [-]% discount."

Lu Hai had a very good impression of Li Shiguang, with a carefree personality, but he seemed to be a relative of the boss, after all, he belonged to the finance department.

Lu Hai's approval was handed over to her, and she passed it easily every time. During the two years of working, speaking of it, she took a lot of care of her.

"I seem to have heard from Fatty that your family seems to be running a factory. It's ok. It's hidden so deep. Did you come to our company for training?" Li Guangguang laughed.

Hearing this sentence, Che Ziyi, who had always been quiet, raised her head, looking forward to Lu Hai's answer.

"It's just a small workshop." Lu Hai scratched his head and said.

Che Ziyi lowered her head again.

"The rich second generation are very low-key now. Not long ago, the company came to an intern. After working for a long time, I realized that she is the daughter of the chairman of the headquarters."

The female colleague, whose name Lu Hai couldn't remember, smiled wryly: "I was about to be scared to death, the leader actually arranged her in my department, and I ordered her around several times. Fortunately, she came and went quickly, otherwise every day It's all torment."

Listen to their chat.

Lu Hai already guessed who it was.

The three women are really good at chatting together. From the time when Lu Hai first joined the company, until Lu Hai left the company, but the one who complained the most was always the leader. Everyone had opinions on Yao Ziming.

"Lu Hai, you don't know, that Yao Ziming usually looks awesome, but since that intern came, he is as obedient as a pug dog."

"And your former boss, Li Qiushuang, was directly dismissed by her."

"Get fired?" Lu Hai was a little surprised.

Li Shiguang nodded: "It happened two months ago. Speaking of which, it still has something to do with you. Since you left, the performance of your department has declined severely."

"The new little boss checked the unexpected performance report of your department, and accidentally found that your performance and assessment scores were not equal, so he called Li Qiushuang in. The next day, he packed up and left."

Lu Hai smiled awkwardly, Su Nuannuan really has no scruples, but it is also a good thing for the company to fire bastards like Li Qiushuang early.

A bad department head can ruin a lot of people, garbage is not suitable for management.

But Lu Hai always felt that Su Nuannuan didn't find out about his performance by accident, but went for Li Qiushuang.

When I was rushing to the sea, I sometimes complained about some things at work. Even if I didn't need to be introduced, Su Nuannuan had a relatively comprehensive understanding of Li Qiushuang.

In the past, every time I complained about Li Qiushuang, Su Nuannuan was always very indignant in the barrage he posted, and said: If I were the boss, I would definitely fire this kind of scum.

No idea, I really resigned.

In the following chat, Li Shiguang saw that Che Ziyi hadn't spoken from the beginning to the end. As a best friend, she naturally knew what this little fairy was thinking.

"Lu Hai, next Friday, it happens to be Che Ziyi's birthday. We are planning to hold a party. Would you like to come over together?"

Che Ziyi's face flushed instantly: "Didn't it be agreed that only women are invited?"

"They're all women, what's the point?"

"I think so too."

"Then it's settled like this, or let's have a villa party."

"Yes."

Lu Hai was very embarrassed, wanted to interrupt but couldn't. During the time next Friday, he should not be free, and listening to their conversation just now, it seemed that no man was invited to the birthday party, and he was alone. It's not that they will be eaten directly by them.

Lu Hai weakly raised his hand: "I won't be in Licheng next Friday."

The atmosphere was instantly awkward.

"Xiao Hai, to save face for my sister, I will give you a chance to say it again." Li Shiguang said seriously.

"Sister Li, I'm really not in Licheng. I have to accompany my girlfriend to Shanghai for a meeting. It may take several days."

The atmosphere became more awkward.

Che Ziyi's face was just flushed at first, but now it's even redder, feeling a little dark, she calmed down, and after eating the avocado, she smiled and said, "I still have something to do, I'll go back to you first, you can talk slowly."

When Che Ziyi left, her hands and feet were very agile, as if she wanted to escape from this coffee shop.

"Zi Yi, wait for me."

Another person named Chen Mingyu followed closely: "Lu Hai, I'm going first too."

"Ah~"

Li Shiguang sighed and looked at Lu Hai with a frown. Half a year had passed, how could this guy's ability to perceive words and emotions be so bad.

Can't you see that we are helping the two of them to have a relationship? Even if you have a girlfriend, you don't have to say that, but it's all her fault.

Without knowing the situation in advance, just pulling the red line casually, this is really a step on the thunder.

"You really have a girlfriend." Li Shiguang asked.

"Ah."

Li Shiguang sighed, then smiled and said: "Congratulations, if you come back next time when you are free, remember to contact us, don't forget us."

"No, Miss Li."

"Then I'll go first too. It's been a long time since we met. I've invited you to dinner. It just so happens that it's my turn today. I'll invite Che Ziyi and Chen Mingyu to dinner. One more of you is not too much."

"It's really not necessary. Let me invite you. Speaking of it, I haven't even thanked you for taking care of me."

Before she could pay, Lu Hai went straight to the waiter and paid the money without giving her a chance to take out her phone.

Li Shiguang, who failed to pay the bill, sighed: "Then next time, I will treat you again, I have to go first, see you next time."

"See you next time." Lu Hai smiled.

When Lu Hai was paying, he accidentally found four big characters printed on a piece of A4 paper on the cash register.

"Our store transfer"

After seeing this, Lu Hai asked suspiciously: "Is your store going to be sold?"

Zhang Quan looked at the young man in front of him very unhappily, thinking that he had finally paid the money and was going to leave, but he didn't expect to talk so much.

In fact, he has been hesitating whether to post this assignment. Once it is posted, it will be tantamount to a waste of four years of business.

If he doesn't transfer it, he can't afford to lose money, and he can't afford to wait. In two years, he will be in his third year. At that time, he won't even have a deposit, and he will really have a mid-life crisis.

"Well, the boss is closed." Zhang Quan said.

"That's it." Lu Hai sighed with emotion. He had planned to buy this coffee shop just now, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come like this.

Mainly, he quite likes it here.

Worked here for two years.

I have also been to this coffee shop many times, and I have left a lot of memories. Anyway, now that I have some spare money in my hand, I just want to play with it.

"How much is the sublet?" Lu Hai asked.

"You want it?" Zhang Quan said in surprise, this bumpkin doesn't look like a rich man.

Lu Hai said seriously: "There is such a plan."

"The cost of running this coffee shop is very high." Zhang Quan really didn't want to continue chatting with this person.

Lu Hai also saw his impatience, so he had to pretend to say: "Let's make a price, money is really not a problem."

Afterwards, Lu Hai took out the business card that STAR gave him. It is said that few people use it, but it can really show his identity at critical moments.

When taking out his business card, Lu Hai accidentally dropped the black card of Yunlan Hotel on the cash register.

After the waiter helped to pick it up, he was completely stunned. What he couldn't figure out all the time, he suddenly figured it out. No wonder there would be such a beautiful woman as his girlfriend, and all the people he came into contact with were beauties.

These days, there are indeed some people who are relatively low-key, including some of his friends. Those who drive BMWs are not necessarily rich, and those who wear slippers are likely to be rent collectors.

It seems that I judge people by their appearance, and the people who own this card are all big bosses.

Zhang Quan's face was like flowers blooming, and he said very respectfully: "Mr. Lu, hello, if you really want to know more about the coffee shop, I can introduce it to you."
