Xia Mingyue was blessed again, "I have met Mrs. He."
"Ms. Xia is out of town." Mrs. He hurriedly raised her hand.
"Ms. Xia, please sit down." Biyun brought the tea cup over, "Ms. Xia, please have some tea."
Shopkeeper Ge felt relieved when he saw that this guest in the private room was indeed familiar with Xia Mingyue. Come on, don't bother me anymore, just retreat first.
"Thank you." Xia Mingyue took the tea, put it on the table, smiled and said humbly to Mrs. He, "Thanks to the old lady for not dissing my poor craftsmanship."
"That's not right. If you are not good at your craftsmanship, is there anyone in Jinqiu County who is better at your craftsmanship than you?"
Mrs. He smiled and said, "You can be humble, but the fact is You need to admit it, otherwise your humble words will be taken seriously by others, and they may look down on you. People who want to entrust you with important responsibilities will also think that you are too conservative and not aggressive enough, so they will feel timid. ”
"What Mrs. He said is true." Please correct me more. "
The tone is gentle, the attitude is neither humble nor arrogant, and the words explain her own reasons. This makes Mrs. He more and more satisfied with Xia Mingyue, and the smile on her face is a little thicker.
“The way of the world and identity are indeed the most imprisoning things for people, but it doesn’t matter. The way of the world is determined by people, and identity is given by people. What you want to do ultimately depends on your own ability.”
Mrs. He smiled and said, "Although I don't say that I have seen everything in this world, I can be regarded as someone who doesn't care about it. But now that I am getting older and have more free time, I want to find something to do and pass my time. To pass the time.”
"I saw that Madam Xia founded Xia Ji, and now she co-opened a restaurant with others, and the business is very prosperous, so I wanted to ask Madam Xia if she would like to do some other business with my old lady?"
A partner comes to your door?
Xia Mingyue was happy in her heart, but she didn't reveal much on her face. She just smiled and asked, "I wonder what kind of business Mrs. He wants to do?"
"At the beginning of the war in Changzhou Fucheng Peace, everything is waiting to be done. Many people are afraid that Changzhou Fucheng is adjacent to the border and the war will start again. Many people are afraid to do too much business there. My old lady feels that there are many opportunities in such a place, so she wants to go there with Lady Xia. Do some food business.”
Mrs. He said, "I will pay to move Xia Ji's development model to Changzhou Fucheng, and let Lady Xia run and manage it. Let Xia Ji take root and develop in Changzhou Fucheng. In addition to the monthly salary to Lady Xia, the profit will be Madam Xia, I’ll take eight. Madam Xia can develop Xiaji and let me, an old woman, earn some money for herself.”
Money for herself?
Afraid is not the purpose.
From the moment she entered this elegant room, Xia Mingyue took a rough look at Mrs. He in front of her.
The clothes on her body look very simple, and even her gray hair is not wearing a few hair accessories. She looks like she is just an old lady with a decent temperament and a moderate family background.
But if you take a closer look, you can find that the brocade on Mrs. He's body is light and soft, with excellent gloss, and it is all embroidered with dark flowers using silk threads of the same color. The workmanship is exquisite, but it is not high-profile and luxurious. The few hairpins on the head are all exquisitely made with filigree, filigree and other techniques. Although the inlaid pearls are not big, they are round and full without any flaws, which shows that they are good.
Mrs. He definitely has no shortage of money for herself.
Combining Mrs. He’s general demeanor and the broad-mindedness and insight reflected in the words just now, the so-called making money for oneself is just a rhetoric. In fact, I probably heard her Xia Ji. This is probably because the indirect aid has helped many people from poor families get out of trouble, and Buyun Tower has also hired many people who are in desperate need of a living.
Xia Mingyue smiled when she heard this, "Mrs. He can make some money for herself if she wants to, but this business always involves losses and gains, so it may not necessarily make money."
"Of course I, an old woman, understand this. Please rest assured, Madam Xia. I have some savings and can afford it. Madam Xia only needs to plan well for me and do her best."
"I understand what Mrs. He means." Xia Mingyue smiled and nodded, "Then according to what Mrs. He said, We have reached a preliminary cooperation intention and can plan the next steps.”
“It’s just that Xia Ji’s model is easy to copy. It’s not difficult to re-establish a central kitchen in Cheung Chau Fucheng. It’s not easy to build a new Buyun Tower there.”
“Of course. It's not that Mrs. He doesn't have the financial resources to do this, it's just that the most important thing in a restaurant is the taste of the food. I can't do two things by myself. I can't do things here at Buyun Tower and cook in Changzhou Fucheng. , and it is not easy to train new cooks. If the taste is too different, it is extremely easy to ruin Buyunlou’s brand. "< br>
“I am looking for someone to make something in the past few days. After it is done, I will make a new kind of food. I will let Mrs. He have a taste. If you think it is okay, you might as well try to make this. As the main dish of the new restaurant, the new restaurant may have a wider audience and better business than Buyunlou.”
"That's fine." Mrs. He nodded, "Then let's follow Madam Xia's instructions and make Xia Ji first, and then build a new restaurant."
"I will send people to Changchun in the next few days. Zhou Fucheng, understand the current situation of Changzhou Fucheng, and ask Madam Xia to go over and prepare for Xia Ji."
"Okay." Xia Mingyue agreed with a smile.
After discussing with Mrs. He for a while the overall operating status of Xia Ji in Jinqiu County and some areas for improvement, Xia Mingyue also put forward some suggestions for the future development of Xia Ji in Changzhou Fucheng. Simple planning and ideas.
Seeing that Xia Mingyue had clear thoughts, many ideas, and unique insights, Mrs. He nodded frequently. Occasionally she would talk about her own ideas and things she didn't understand, and discuss them with Xia Mingyue.
This discussion took a full two hours, and it was not until the sun turned slightly to the west that Mrs. He got up and prepared to leave Buyun Tower.
"You can make a good plan when you go back, and then discuss it with the manager." Mrs. He said, "If you have some free time recently, you can make some pastries and snacks. I am in the New Year." As I get older, I like to eat sweets more and more."
As she spoke, Mrs. He lowered her voice and leaned into Xia Mingyue's ear, "Actually, the doctor said that I need less sweets as I get older. Eat some, otherwise it will be bad for your health, but I always feel that this person has lived and worked hard all his life, just to enjoy happiness and do whatever he wants in the little time left. If he wants to live a long life, he must If you restrain your actions and suppress your thoughts, what's the use of living so long?" (End of Chapter)
