Chapter 381 Surprise


Chapter 381 Surprise

The next morning.

"Hey, who is this? A rare visitor!"

"Do you still remember that you have a company and you still know how to come here?"

"Uh"

As soon as Huang Xu entered his uncle's office, he heard him teasing him. He touched his nose in embarrassment and quickly explained to his uncle.

"Sorry uncle, I was really busy a while ago and I was a little neglectful here."

"And didn't I come right over as soon as I finished my work?"

"Did you neglect that? I think you have completely forgotten about this?"

"And if I hadn't called you, wouldn't you have remembered that you still had a company?"

"Uh"

"You are the major shareholder of the company, so don't you know how to treat the company?"

"What will you do if something happens to the company?"

"If it comes here, it will be a business worth hundreds of millions?"

"Aren't you here?"

"With you here, I have nothing to worry about."

"You, forget it, just take a look at the company's situation during this period of time."

Looking at Huang Xu's playful and smiling face, Huang Wenfu revealed his happiness despite his helplessness.

He is happy because Huang Xu trusts him.

Although the two are uncles and nephews, with the development of the company, it is now very large, and the funds involved have reached hundreds of billions of won.

If converted into Chinese currency, it would be more than 200 million.

This money, I believe, is a fortune that cannot be ignored by anyone. In fact, they may keep an eye on this money 24 hours a day, for fear of something going wrong.

But what about Huang Xu?

After the initial stage is completed, the money will be ignored.

Even if I hadn't called him to come back, it was still unknown when he would come to the company.

As for the helplessness, it was because Huang Xu shook his hands too thoroughly.

For a month or two, I ignored the company and left everything to myself, which put me under a lot of pressure and responsibility.

He was just a cook originally.

In the past ten or twenty years, my work has always revolved around the kitchen. When I had the greatest rights and responsibilities, I was managing a kitchen with only seven or eight people.

What now?

In less than a year, he managed hundreds of billions of wealth, more than 400 franchise stores, and nearly 400 employees.

One can imagine how much pressure he is under now.

And he got involved with Huang Xu, the hands-off shopkeeper.

It can be said that during this period of time, he could not eat well, could not sleep well, and had lost a lot of hair.

Huang Xu looked at his uncle's complicated eyes, took the document decisively, then lowered his head to check it, avoiding looking at him.

As the owner of the company, how could he not know the current situation of the company?

He also managed the company when his uncle was home, so he knew how many things needed to be dealt with every day.

Now that he had finally found a capable and reassuring candidate like his uncle, there was no way he would let his uncle go.

If my uncle ran away, all this work would be put on me, and I would feel desperate just thinking about it.

Moreover, my uncle is only in his forties now, not yet fifty, so it is a good time to strive.

After spending more than ten minutes checking the company's information, Huang Xu already understood what kind of development the catering company had undergone during his absence for more than a month.

The first is Malatang, the first franchised product.

Although there are Malatang shops all over the streets in Seoul now, because the taste here is more authentic and it is the original check-in shop, the business is generally good.

There are more than 100 franchised stores in total. Currently, only a few stores are closed due to poor business. Basically, the business is pretty good.

It can be said that they are now the number one Malatang brand in Seoul.

Then there is their latest pickled fish shop.

Let’s not talk about the directly-operated stores. They opened relatively early, and the location was well chosen. With the advantage of cheap prices, it can be said that business has not been bad since the opening.

And those 300 franchise stores are basically open now, and their business is still doing well.

Not to mention the stores in good locations, but the businesses in not-so-good locations are doing decent business now.

Although the price is relatively cheap and the profit point is not very high, with the high frequency of turnover and the fact that there is almost no waste of personnel expenses and materials, the return on investment is not bad.

Even now, many people have begun to contact them to inquire about the second round of franchises.

Seeing this, Huang Xu raised his head and looked at Huang Wenfu.

"Uncle, how many people want to join Pickled Fish now?"

“Many, especially in the past few days, many people have called us for consultation.”

"It seems that our store business is really good!"

"These people can't sit still when they see the profit."

At this time, Huang Xu also remembered the last time before leaving Seoul, Kim Jong Kook came to him and said that someone wanted to get to know him.

They seemed to have seen the stores in Chishi Town making money, so they wanted to join them.

But then he remembered another question.

"Uncle, do you think we can open the franchise again now?"

"What do you think?"

Huang Wenfu did not answer Huang Xu's question directly, but threw the question back with a smile.

"You are the boss of the company now. Do you have any plans for the company's future development?"

"Continue to expand operations and become bigger and stronger?"

"Is it better to just keep the status quo?"

"I"

"It's okay, don't worry, you can think about it slowly. Just tell me when you think about it clearly."

Seeing the confusion on Huang Xu's face, Huang Wenfu was not in a hurry, but asked Huang Xu to go back and think slowly.

Huang Xu also nodded, and then briefly chatted with his uncle about the company's situation for a while, before returning to his office.

Sitting in the clean and bright office, Huang Xu looked directly at the scenery outside the window and fell into deep thought.

He now had to think carefully about the question his uncle asked just now.

After all, the implications of this matter are really huge, and there are many things that need to be considered.

Until noon, he still had not made a decision.

Huang Wenfu didn't force Huang Xu, he just asked him to think it through and tell himself.

In the afternoon, Huang Xu, who had been sitting all morning, left the company a little irritably and returned to Longshan Apartment.

"What's going on?"

"Why are you all here?"

After entering the door, Huang Xu was dumbfounded when he saw everyone in Girls' Generation in the room.

There are only nine of them in total, but there are seven or eight of them here today, filling a room full of people.

Huang Xu was a little confused. The house was deserted when he left. Why were there so many people all of a sudden?

However, the girls seemed not to notice Huang Xu's dull expression, and they all smiled and greeted Huang Xu.

"Hello, brother-in-law!"

"Hello, brother-in-law Huang!"

".""Hello, hello."

After hurriedly greeting them respectively, Huang Xu saw Sunny in the crowd.

"What's going on?"

Sunny saw the confusion in Huang Xu's eyes, took Huang Xu's bag with a smile, and then explained.

"Isn't this our rest? They have nothing to do at home and can't go shopping, so they come here to play together."

"Okay."

Huang Xu listened to Sunny's explanation and expressed his understanding.

As the most popular girl group at the moment, they seem to be very glamorous and very popular. They are followed by many people wherever they go.

But correspondingly, they also have many restrictions.

For example, in daily life, you need to be very careful.

When ordinary people take a break, they can go shopping, eat, watch movies, or even travel in various places.

But they can't enjoy this kind of fun now. During their breaks, unless they go to places with fewer people or go abroad, they can only stay at home.

Or, in a few years, after they have passed away, no one will pay attention to them, and they will naturally be free.

So Huang Xu understood them quite well.

As for why they came here instead of going back to the dormitory, of course it was because there was a lot of fun here.

Not to mention that the combined area of ​​the two apartments now is a little more than 1.5 times that of their dormitory, but the various recreational facilities here are not comparable to their dormitory.

The various games that used to be played in their dormitory were now basically moved here by Sunny.

And in addition to those games, there is also an extremely fun toy that they have never seen before: mahjong.

Although some of them have only played this ancient board and card game a few times, and some of them have not played it yet, they are all already attracted to this game.

Some people have even become addicted.

This is also the reason why so many people came at once.

In addition to various games and mahjong, there is also a lot of fitness equipment in the apartment next to it.

For Huang Xu, these equipment may only be a warm-up thing, but there is no way to make him enjoy himself.

But for female idols like them, it's enough.

Various aerobic fitness equipment, plus Pilates equipment for body shaping, can be said to be very complete.

It is enough to meet their exercise requirements.

For example, Kim Taeyeon and Kwon Yuri came here to work out.

After figuring out the whole story, Huang Xu also brought out various fruit drinks and various snacks and specialties to entertain everyone.

In addition, everyone was familiar with him, so for a while, the apartment was very lively.

It's just that after Huang Xu stayed for a while, he felt a little irritable.

On the surface, there are all kinds of charming girl group idols in the room, which should be an enjoyable experience.

After all, their looks and figures are indeed good.

In addition, it is summer now, and their brothers are wearing vests and hot pants, which can be said to be quite eye-catching.

Logically speaking, Huang Xu should be in a state of enjoyment.

But now Huang Xu wants to say that being with one or two people is eye-catching, or even three or four people, Huang Xu doesn't think it is a problem.

But there are eight people here, and they are eight very familiar people, so the situation is a little different.

As the saying goes, three women can make a thousand ducks, let alone eight of them here?

And these are the eight girls from the Hongzi Group?

When Huang Xu first came back, it was okay when they didn't let go, but after they became completely familiar with each other, the situation changed.

Huang Xu was dumbfounded when he saw the living room full of people, as if he had entered a vegetable market.

"Are you always like this?"

"Well, are you a little uncomfortable with it?"

Looking at Huang Xu's expression, Sunny also felt a little regretful at this time.

She has been getting along with her teammates for several years, and it can be said that she has gradually become accustomed to their noisy teammates.

And she might still be the noisier character in it.

But seeing the discomfort on Huang Xu's face, she also felt a little apologetic.

"Sorry, I didn't expect this to happen."

"It's okay. It's not easy for them to come here. Opportunities like yours are also rare."

Huang Xu waved his hand and kissed her forehead gently, indicating that he was fine.

Then he patted her back gently and said to her.

"Go and play with them. I'll help you cook. There will be a big dinner for you later in the evening."

"Yeah!"

Sunny raised her head and glanced at Huang Xu, then stood on tiptoes, lightly touched the corner of Huang Xu's mouth, and then happily ran to the side of her teammates.

Huang Xu looked at Sunny's cheerful back and shook his head, muttering in his heart.

"Let's play. During this period of time, you won't have the chance to have this kind of free time."

Thinking back on the plan that he and Li Xiuman had planned, it was foreseeable that the lives they would take over would be very difficult.

The Chinese market is not comparable to that of South Korea. If they can become famous, I believe that in the next one or two years, except for Sunny, the rest of them will either be traveling or on the road to traveling.

If you want to play cards and games in such a leisurely manner, it is basically impossible.

So after Huang Xu told them again, he left the apartment directly and prepared to buy some ingredients.

He was now going to make amends to them with a big meal.

In the evening, Huang Xu made a big meal and entertained Sunny's teammates, which lasted until about 11 o'clock in the evening.

After sending them downstairs together, Huang Xu and Sunny returned to the apartment.

As soon as Sunny entered the door, she jumped directly on Huang Xu.

"Huang Xu, thank you so much today. It's really troublesome for you to have so many people here."

"And they are so noisy, but you are not angry."

"You are so."

"What? You suddenly sent me a good guy card?"

Huang Xu smiled and ruffled Sunny's hair, then looked at Sunny with complaining eyes.

"They are all your teammates and your closest friends. How can I get tired of them?"

“What’s more, there’s Taeyeon inside?”

"You're so kind!"

Sunny looked at Huang Xu, her eyes full of gratitude.

This kind of boyfriend who understands her and is not disappointed is too lethal to her.

And thinking back to Huang Xu's consideration for her earlier, Sunny's face was full of happiness.

Then when he got excited, he lay directly in Huang Xu's ear and said.

"Go take a shower first, I'll have a surprise for you later."

"???"
