Chapter 128 Chapter 128 Continue to pursue your career.
Lin Quansheng is very satisfied with his current life and does not feel any burden about the treatment given by his good brother. He just earnestly promises to work hard to generate more income for his boss and try his best to share his worries so that he can focus on other business matters.
The topic naturally shifted to the fast food restaurant, and Lin Quansheng asked when they would start preparing.
"Hey, I've entrusted the noodle shop to you. As long as I find a helper to help you, I can start working on the new store. Let Brother Liang help me find a suitable store in the next two days."
"So soon?" Lin Quansheng was surprised. "You have to go back to your hometown soon. Why don't you wait until things are settled?"
Lin Nanjiang finally found a new way out and was filled with energy. "Making money doesn't wait. I still have more than a month left, which should be enough time for me to open the fast food restaurant before returning. Or I can first take care of things like renovations, recruitment, and training, and then return from my hometown to prepare for the opening."
Lin Quansheng knew immediately that this wasn't a rash decision, so he gave him a thumbs-up and said with genuine admiration, "You deserve to be rich! You're so proactive."
He sighed, "Actually, it was the same when you left the factory and started your own stall. You just jumped at the idea and didn't want to wait even a day. Back then, you hadn't even officially resigned, you just took a leave and rented a place to start your business."
"Yeah." Recalling the past, Lin Nanjiang was filled with emotion and a sense of high spirits. "That's why it's said that overthinking is useless. Many things can only be achieved by taking action. If you don't have experience, then slowly accumulate experience. The more you do things, the more mature you will become."
Lin Quansheng thought it made sense, but he decided not to participate. "This is the courage required to be a boss. I don't have this kind of character. I will just work for you honestly for the rest of my life."
Lin Nanjiang felt that his good friend had described him as too unmotivated. He frowned and retorted, listing the other party's many advantages, such as being down-to-earth, hardworking, loyal, and family-oriented. The topic had unknowingly deviated into the stage of mutual business flattery. Liu Suqin was amused and speechless, so she had to speak to get back to the point, "So, will you accompany my brother to look at houses tomorrow?"
During the dinner in the evening, Liu Suqin had already made an appointment with Li Liang. She would take her mother and younger brother to look at houses tomorrow. If there were no problems, they would just book one. Lin Nanjiang and the others would just go and open the store.
Lin Nanjiang didn't change his mind now. "You guys go look at the house first. I'll come back to you when there's nothing else to do at the store."
Liu Suqin nodded. "Okay, you can tell Brother Liang in person what kind of store you're looking for. If there's a particularly suitable storefront that the landlord won't sell, we can rent it first."
"I know it's hard to find a shop, but if you can't buy one, you can just rent it. Arrange these things as soon as possible. The most important thing is to open the store and make money as soon as possible."
Seeing how flexible he was, Liu Suqin felt completely relieved. She clapped her hands and stood up. "You two can discuss the rest between yourselves. I'm going to bed first."
Liu Suqin let go as she said and then focused on her own business. She quickly helped her younger brother finalize the house purchase and then focused all her attention on her business.
During the time she was away, the store operated normally and its performance increased instead of decreasing. Liu Suqin carefully checked the report details and made sure there was no problem. She then began to give out generous rewards. She gave big red envelopes to the store manager who managed the store in an orderly manner, and to several outstanding employees with outstanding recent performance. She also did not neglect other employees and chose an evening to invite everyone to eat skewers and sing.
Liu Suqin has always organized team-building activities on a voluntary basis. She does not require everyone to participate, and there are no rigid tasks such as drinking and playing games. The main focus is to have a good time eating and having fun. If someone at the party suggests playing some new and interesting games, she will happily join them. If no one suggests it, they will just eat, drink, talk and laugh. She usually takes them to sing if the employees themselves ask for it.
At this time, there is no Internet or other entertainment to enrich the spiritual world of young people, and there is no burden to have dinner with Liu Suqin, the young and easy-going female boss. Therefore, every time she organizes team building, everyone participates enthusiastically, and some people even actively apply to bring their families.
Liu Suqin expressed her welcome for this phenomenon, as it is more lively with more people, more communication and understanding between colleagues, and enhanced team cohesion. Compared with these benefits, having a few more people eating and drinking for free is nothing at all, as they won't make her go bankrupt.
What Liu Suqin wants is to get along well with her colleagues after get off work. She will occasionally take the initiative to bring her family to dinner parties. Li Hong and Zhang Mingliang also responded to this. As long as their partners are free, there will always be two of them at the dinner table.
This also brought an unexpected gain.
Zhang Mingliang's fiancée Chen Jiahui is a beautiful, wealthy woman. Her parents and brothers are all in business, and her sister's in-laws are even richer. Her family has no shortage of money or house, and they don't have any demands on her. They used their connections to find her a job.
Chen Jiahui herself doesn't like working all day. As a relative, she can show up at the company and punch in every day. Even though she loves her job and is dedicated to it, after punching in, she will ask her sisters to go shopping and have tea.
As a playboy, she certainly wouldn't miss the team-building activities of her partner and colleagues. After participating in them only once, she fell in love with the atmosphere of eating, drinking and having fun. The shopping and beauty party with her sisters was really not as colorful as their team-building activities. Whether it was singing, playing games together, or even just listening to them complain about weird clients, or chatting about the love and hate in clients' families, she was fascinated.
Chen Jiahui wishes Liu Suqin could organize team-building activities every day, and she is willing to sponsor part of the funds!
It's a pity. Liu Suqin does all this just to make her employees work for her diligently. Everything is for the sake of making money. It's already very difficult to organize an event once every one or two months. If she organizes more than that, it may affect her work. She doesn't want to end up losing more than she gains.
Chen Jiahui was a little disappointed, but she had attended two dinner parties and was familiar with her boyfriend's colleagues. Sometimes when she was bored or passed by their store, she would go in to say hello and see how they worked.
Zhang Mingliang is a man of strong business ability and he clearly distinguishes between public and private life. His girlfriend's visit to the set does not affect his work, and Liu Suqin has no objection to this. Sometimes they will chat when they meet Chen Jiahui. The girl is enthusiastic and cheerful, and is good at eating, drinking and having fun. Liu Suqin has been introduced to many stores by her, and she will take her sisters to check in when she is free. So far, she has never encountered any problems, which shows that she is indeed an expert in this area.
The boss was so easy-going and friendly that Chen Jiahui felt more comfortable going to the store. Occasionally, seeing other people busy with their work, she was also interested and took a set of personal photos on a whim. She was hooked and asked all her friends and sisters to come and experience it.
Not all of Chen Jiahui's childhood friends are rich and beautiful, but those who can eat, drink and have fun with her have a certain financial strength, so taking a few sets of photos is no problem. So various personal photos, girlfriends photos, and couple photos were experienced in turn. Chen Jiahui's actions brought a lot of results to her boyfriend Zhang Mingliang.
Of course, Liu Suqin is the biggest winner.
The bonuses were distributed, the team-building activity was successfully concluded, and Liu Suqin began to arrange new work.
Xiao Fangfang picked out some of the big bag of sparkling accessories brought back from the small commodity market for herself to play with and to share with her friends. Liu Suqin took the rest to the store, personally discussed the makeup and hairstyle matching with the makeup artists, and asked someone to make a batch of ancient costumes and cheongsams. She also added some related scenery to the studio, and then launched the new theme package in a lively manner.
The entertainment activities nowadays are mainly TV dramas. Martial arts dramas and Republican dramas are very popular among young people, so the new set meal in the store was warmly welcomed as soon as it was launched.
It just so happened that there were relatively few clients holding weddings and taking wedding photos in the summer, so ancient costume and Republican-era photos successfully filled this gap, and everyone started to get busy again.
Liu Suqin mainly participated in the early preparation work. Once the event was successfully launched, she would retire. While happily counting money, she also watched how her employees worked independently. She felt so satisfied and happy!
When the business in the store was back on track, Liu Suqin went back to arrange to pick up her nephews and nieces for the summer vacation. Under her rewards and encouragement year after year, the three elementary school students performed excellently and basically sat firmly at the top of the class. Their parents were overjoyed, and Liu Suqin was also full of a sense of accomplishment.
These were all her contributions, especially to her nephews and nieces from her mother's side. Without the influence of this little butterfly of hers, they would at best have obtained a junior high school diploma. Liu Suqin really wanted to see how far they could go.
Since her carrot was so effective, she didn't mind continuing to use it. It was just a piece of cake for her anyway.
Liu Suqin took some time off and called back to ask the families to discuss among themselves and arrange for an adult to send the three children over.
Once Lin Nanjiang and his team's passenger line is running smoothly, there will be no need for them to be escorted to and from the bus. The children can just follow the bus back and forth by themselves.
When Liu Qiang and his friends arrived home, Lin Nanjiang's house had already entered the later stage of renovation and had begun to recruit and train employees in full swing. Liu Suqin did not let him distract himself from taking care of household affairs. As usual, she drove the children out to play.
Teenagers really change every day. After not seeing them for half a year, Liu Qiang and He Xiaolei have grown into teenagers. It can be seen that they have been studying hard at home. They are fair and clean-looking. In addition, they can come to the big city to see the world every summer vacation. They don’t look like those who were raised in the village. They have some bookish air, and their speech and actions are more mature than their peers. They are also patient and sensible, and they are good at taking care of the little sisters. Liu Suqin really likes them no matter how she sees them.
The little girl Liu Yuting is even more sensible and considerate. She has been helping her mother take care of her younger brother at home since she was a child. As soon as she saw her little cousin Fangfang, she started running around her, helping her wipe her sweat, feeding her water, tying her hair and telling her stories. When she got home, she even competed with her grandmother to give her little cousin a bath and wash clothes. Seeing this, Liu Suqin felt both warm and a little sad.
Feelings are developed through interactions. The person Liu Suqin was closest to in her previous life was her nephew Liu Qiang, whom she took care of with great difficulty. The next closest person was Liu Ping's daughters. This kid was not ambitious and just lived a mediocre life. As an older sister, she had to worry about him. She had to take care of her nieces more because she had a pair of children of her own to worry about, so she had no time to take care of her second brother's two children.
Of course, her second brother and sister-in-law are capable, so she doesn't have to worry about this. After her niece graduated from junior high school, she went out to work for a few years and then got married under the arrangement of her parents. The boy's father is a leader in the town, and his family is well-off. He has a house and a shop in the county. The boy himself also works in the county with a civil service position. After the couple got married, her father-in-law found her a job as a women's director in a village near the county. It was not a civil service position, but the salary was good and social security was paid. Her second brother and sister-in-law also gave their daughter a car as a dowry. She drove to and from get off work, and the commute took only twenty minutes, which was no different from working in the city.
When my niece had a child, my parents-in-law retired and moved to the city to take care of the child. They used their retirement salary to subsidize their small family, and they lived a very comfortable life.
Later, the nephew started working and found a job with high pay, little work and close to home through the connections of his brother-in-law's family. The brother and sister were both supported by their elders. They were not rich, but they had enough food and clothing.
They lived very well on their own, and Liu Suqin had nothing to worry about. They didn't spend much time together. It was only in recent years that she invited the children to her home for the summer vacation. Even if they only stayed for ten days or half a month each time, they lived under the same roof with her. Liu Suqin couldn't help but ask about their food, clothing, housing and transportation. Over time, the aunt and niece became really close.
Seeing her niece being so sensible and mature, Liu Suqin was not pleased or satisfied. Instead, she remembered that her daughter was the same in her previous life. At a young age, she took care of her younger brother like a mother. Empathy made her hold the little girl on her lap and coax her gently and patiently, "Auntie brought you here to relax and as a reward for your good grades. So don't worry, just play with your brothers. You don't need to take care of your sister, and you don't have to help us with housework."
Liu Yuting felt that she was a grown-up girl and had never been so close to her parents at home. She was suddenly hugged by her aunt like a child. She felt shy and happy. Her aunt smelled good and she really liked it. She was reluctant to refuse this closeness and her little face suddenly turned red.
The palms and backs of her hands are all fleshy. Qian Juxiang looked at her eldest granddaughter who rarely acted like a spoiled child, and her heart softened. She picked up the little granddaughter who was tugging at the side and also wanted her mother to hold her, and coaxed her softly, "Mommy will hold her cousin, and grandma will hold the darling, okay?"
Xiao Fangfang was a generous child after all, and she liked her cousin who always took care of her. She decided to lend her mother to her cousin for a minute, and her little hands cooperated by hugging her grandmother's neck. "Okay."
Liu Yuting calmed down and explained in a low voice, "I like Xiao Fangfang very much, and I want to take care of her."
Liu Suqin helped her tidy up the messy hair at her temples. She planned to take the little girl to get a suitable haircut and buy her two beautiful dresses and sandals. At the same time, she patiently coaxed her, "You are also a child, a little guest. If you like your sister, you can take her to play with you, but the prerequisite is that you have to have fun. Only then can it be considered a reward, right?"
The little girl, who was used to being considerate of her elders, couldn't help but think along these lines. Her aunt had rewarded her with a summer trip to the big city, so she really shouldn't let her down. She had to have fun to make the trip worthwhile. But she couldn't help wanting to help them, so she finally asked cautiously, "Can I take my sister to the bath? I can accompany her and teach her how to bathe and dress herself. My brother learned that from me."
Seeing that their younger sister was behaving like this, the two boys couldn't help but get involved and said that they could take their younger sister to play games and ride horses. They were so sensible that Liu Suqin said she couldn't take care of her.
So she made a decision. After checking in at several attractions in Shenzhen, she drove them to the neighboring Guangzhou for two days to develop a new map.
After Liu Suqin had properly entertained the little guests, Lin Nanjiang's preparations were also completed. When the day came to officially implement the cooperation with He Shengli and others, he could just take the little ones who were having so much fun playing with them back home.
This time he went back and stayed for a full week, but he got a lot of things done. He formally signed contracts with several partners, transferred money, bought a car, and finally returned to Shenzhen on the bus he invested in.
This is the advantage of partnering with a local boss. There is no need to queue up for reservations. They have picked out the cars in advance, and once the money is transferred, they will immediately drive the cars home, check them, register them, refuel them, and wash them. Without any major problems, the business can start off with a bang.
In addition, through the relationship with this partner, they successfully reached a cooperation with the bus station. The station helped them sell tickets and also took a commission from it. However, when passengers checked their tickets and boarded the bus at the bus station, they felt very formal and safe, so this cooperation was still very worthwhile.
Thanks to the endorsement of the bus station, their first trip had an occupancy rate of 60%, and they even picked up a few individual passengers on the way, which made both large and small shareholders very happy.
Although Lin Nanjiang knew the road and knew how to deal with the road bullies to pass smoothly, it was the first time for He Shengli and Lin Nanhe to drive on this section of road. They were still very cautious. They drove together, took care of each other and took turns to avoid fatigue driving.
The journey was indeed smooth. Following Lin Nanjiang's instructions, we drove the car to an unofficial station outside the customs.
Most passenger buses start and end their journeys here, and they also follow the local customs, dropping off the passengers at this station and then following him into the customs.
Lin Nanjiang planned to take the two of them home as guests.
Lin Nanhe was the first among his brothers and sisters to come to his third brother's house. He was very new to everything in the city. Liu Suqin also warmly entertained them and reminded her mother and Aunt Zhang to prepare a sumptuous meal.
In fact, she didn't need to remind her, Qian Juxiang had already brought Aunt Zhang home to prepare the bed and welcome them.
When the guests arrived, the whole family came out and surrounded the big car parked downstairs to admire it for a long time. Little Fangfang jumped up and down excitedly, treating it as a small playground. Qian Juxiang was amazed at what she saw. She knew that with her son-in-law involved in this business, it must be a huge investment to buy such a big and luxurious car.
However, when the words came to her lips, she still did not spoil the fun, but just kept praising how high-end and luxurious the car was, and said it must be more comfortable to sit in than the train.
This wasn't He Shengli's first time here, and he was quite familiar with Qian Juxiang. He immediately invited her warmly, "Auntie, come back to our hometown with us. We can just drive to the village, lie down and take a nap, and you'll be home. It's not only comfortable but also convenient."
Lin Nanhe was no stranger to dealing with things, so he quickly nodded in agreement. "Yes, just take our car back. Your family doesn't need to buy tickets, and you can have someone to take care of you on the way."
Qian Juxiang hesitated for a few seconds, but finally stood firm. "No, that won't work. Your business is relying on the Spring Festival travel rush to make money. Don't miss out. We can just take the train."
Afraid that they would persuade her if she continued to watch, she quickly waved and said, "The food is ready. Let's go up and eat first. Fangfang, it's time to go home."
With the warm hospitality of the family, He Shengli and Lin Nanhe had a sumptuous and delicious dinner. After the meal, they did not leave the table, but drank tea and talked in the restaurant. After eating and drinking to their heart's content, they talked to their heart's content. Finally, they patted their butts and went back to sleep with Lin Quansheng.
In fact, Qian Juxiang had already made an agreement with Aunt Zhang that the two of them would squeeze in tonight, and the two guests would sleep in the same room with Liu Laogen. They were both grown men, so it would be no problem for them to just spend one night together.
But after Lin Quansheng finished his business, he came over under the pretext of reminiscing about the past, and before they could even say a few words, he took them to his house. The reason given was that there were many empty rooms in his house, and Lin Nanhe and He Shengli could each have a room, and everything had been cleaned up in advance and they could move in at any time.
Yes, Lin Quansheng's family was well prepared. It was not the first day they knew that their good brother's family was short of housing. The three children had come to visit during the summer vacation before. Except for Fangfang who took the initiative to sleep with her sister, the two brothers Liu Qiang and He Xiaolei also went to Lin Quansheng's house, and he was also the one who took the initiative to invite them.
Lin Quansheng himself is a recognized good guy among his friends. His wife and mother-in-law are both good-tempered, and they always silently care for and help Liu Suqin's family. Recently, Lin Quansheng was promoted and got a raise, and he is also half the owner of the noodle shop. The family is happy and wants to do something to help them in return. When they find some room to play, they feel like they have been injected with chicken blood.
Qian Juxiang was so frightened that she was afraid that if things continued like this, she would lose her job.
The pressure belongs to the workers. As people who are cared for and protected, Liu Suqin and Lin Nanjiang accept it well and even enjoy it a little.
So with the help of his good brother, Lin Nanjiang perfectly entertained his brother-in-law and his younger brother. When they drove to the outside of the customs to pick up customers early the next morning, he also focused on preparing for the opening of the fast food restaurant.
Liu Suqin was willing to let go before because of her absolute trust in his ability, not because she was really indifferent.
Besides, although the new store was rented, Lin Nanjiang still used his wife's name when he went to handle the formalities. As the real boss lady, Liu Suqin couldn't just be a hands-off boss. Seeing that the opening was imminent, she still found time to come up with a lot of ideas.
Especially in the field of opening planning, which she was good at, Liu Suqin basically took care of it all by herself. She dragged Lin Nanjiang to find someone to print flyers for promotion without saying anything.
Their fast food restaurant mainly relies on small profits but quick turnover, so there is no way to offer discounts for the opening event. She also asked Lin Nanjiang to prepare free soup, cooking a large bucket of it like in the school cafeteria and placing it on the table. Those who want it can help themselves, so there is no gimmick of free soup. In order to attract people who received the flyers to come into the store to check it out, Liu Suqin chose to give away mineral water.
Ordinary people like to join in the fun, and with a little inducement, they will definitely flock to it.
Lin Nanjiang watched his wife plan the event with his own eyes, and he immediately learned from her mistakes and added a freezer to the store before the official opening. In the heat of autumn, wouldn't it be more attractive to give away free iced mineral water?
After the event is over, the freezer can still sell some cola, soda, cold tea, etc., so it will not lose money.
When a husband and wife work together, they can achieve great things. The fast food restaurant became very popular. During the first three days after its opening, the restaurant was packed with people at meal times. Many customers spontaneously shared tables. During the busiest time, there were long queues at the food serving and payment weighing areas.
The store manager carefully selected by Lin Nanjiang is very capable. He takes on the task of comforting customers without him having to show up. The other employees are also very motivated and efficient. In addition, the store is clean and bright, the ingredients are carefully processed, and the taste is not bad. It is very popular among the office workers in the surrounding area and can be said to be all the rage.
