Next, Du Shaojie went to visit Director Luo again and cooked a table of authentic Cantonese dishes at Director Luo's home.
Director Luo was filled with emotion. How many years have passed? The saplings of that year have grown into towering trees. He told Du Shaojie that Du Xiaomei need not worry about school affairs in the future, as someone will take care of her secretly. It
would be inconvenient to cook for Dr. Lin by herself, so Du Shaojie invited him to the Cantonese Restaurant for dinner, which was considered to be a courtesy.
Finally, Du Shaojie invited Xiaomei's classmates and roommates to dinner. He personally cooked this meal, and the dishes were exactly the same as those for Uncle Chai and the others, except that the portions were a little larger.
When they parted, Du Xiaomei kept crying.
She didn't know what other people's brothers were like, but Du Shaojie was simply great to her. An elder brother is like a father, and no one can do better than her own brother.
"Why are you crying? I have to come back in two days. I have to go to Shenzhen. There is no airport there. I have to take a plane back. You should take good care of yourself. Don't do strenuous exercise in the next few months. Wait until you are fully recovered."
Du Shaojie returned the rental house and the storefront, took his luggage and boarded the train to Shenzhen.
Shenzhen was still a big construction site at that time. There was no airport, but there was a train. He went there mainly to build a house for himself, otherwise there would be nothing to see now.
Of course, the location of self-built houses is relatively remote, but as long as it is a population gathering area in the future, it will be fine.
To be honest, although Du Shaojie had expectations in his heart, he could still see the shadow of the small fishing village when he arrived in Shenzhen. The plan is grand, but it is still on the drawing.
"Master Du, I have helped you with the self-built house, but I have something to say in advance. After you build the house, you may not have much income for the time being, and I don't know how long it will take."
"It doesn't matter whether there is income or not. At worst, I will use it myself in the future. Anyway, I don't plan to rent it out."
After Cai Jing received Du Shaojie, she took him around and it was very desolate everywhere. After all, the Special Administrative Region was only established in August this year, and it is not so fast to change its appearance.
It is easy to build a house by yourself, but the key is whether you can stand the loneliness.
Du Shaojie does not care about the income of the house itself. His requirements are very simple, facing the street and spacious.
Things went smoothly. The land that Cai Jing helped to find is more than 300 square meters. It is a bit far from the current prosperous area and is indeed very remote.
But it is backed by the Deep Bay, so it is very convenient to go to the sea.
There is a village not far away, and the planned urban main road is not far from here.
He knows very well what kind of development will happen here in the future.
Even now, it will slowly become prosperous in two years, and opening a restaurant can
make money. Du Shaojie took the land without hesitation, spending more than 30,000 yuan in total. It seems not cheap, but he still thinks it is worth it. In a few years, Shenzhen will implement a land auction system. At that time, it will cost several times the price to get this land.
The money he has is only enough to pay the initial expenses. He called Wang Yuxiu to send a sum of money.
Afterwards, Cai Jing helped him contact a design unit and a construction unit. The design drawings would take half a month to come out, but after communication, the two sides basically determined the overall idea.
After all, it was just a three-story building with more than 300 square meters and a yard, which was not complicated.
On the construction unit side, he signed a framework agreement with them. After the design drawings came out, the two sides signed a supplementary agreement to determine the final project cost and other matters.
The start date is set after the beginning of next spring, and the specific matters can be discussed by phone.
Du Shaojie did not run away after signing the supplementary agreement. The agreement can be signed by mail. Anyway, with Cai Jing's help, he had nothing to worry about.
After finishing these things, Cai Jing sent a car to take him to Baiyun Airport. When he arrived, there were only two hours before takeoff, and he didn't have time to see Xiaomei again.
Fortunately, Cai Jing promised to find a way to notify Xiaomei, so he flew back to Xijiang directly.
In the evening.
Su Dapeng, Dong Jun, Yu Jianxin, Huang Tingting, Qin Xiaomei and others came to Du Shaojie's house. The other party had been gone for more than a month, and everyone had a lot of things to talk to him about.
Zhong Fuxiang didn't come, he was at the private restaurant and couldn't leave.
Du Shaojie sat with everyone in the yard next door. Dong Jun went to make a few dishes, and everyone chatted while drinking
. It was not until after ten o'clock in the evening that everyone dispersed.
In general, including the [Dezhou Braised Chicken] restaurant, snack bar, private restaurant, [Da Pan Ji] specialty store, etc., all operated normally, and some minor problems that occurred were effectively solved.
Du Shaojie slept soundly at home. When he got up in the morning, he was the only one left at home.
He went out to buy breakfast and then went to Liang Meiqin's house.
"Shaojie, you are finally back."
Liang Meiqin has been suspicious recently. When she heard a noise, she hurried to the yard to check. Every time she thought it was Du Shaojie who came back, but she was disappointed every time.
Today, she finally saw each other. She reached out and kept touching his cheek.
"You've gained weight."
"Hahaha, have you ever seen a chef who looks like a skinny monkey? Let's go and have breakfast first."
Du Shaojie was amused by Liang Meiqin's appearance. He pulled her to sit at the table, and the two of them started eating together.
While eating, Liang Meiqin talked about her recent situation. Her condition has improved again. As long as she doesn't go to the streets, she can walk alone near her home.
Liang's mother took her to the hospital to check her eyesight a few days ago. Her eyesight was close to 0.1, and she could see blurry shadows. She couldn't see anything beyond 4 meters.
But for Liang Meiqin, this was already a huge improvement.
"The doctor said that my eyesight is in the recovery period, and it is best not to correct my eyesight with glasses. I have to continue taking medicine and treatment."
Liang Meiqin was in a good mood. After dinner, she cleaned up slowly by herself and resolutely refused to let Du Shaojie intervene.
Du Shaojie was naturally very happy. If he had been holding on to a glimmer of hope before, hoping for a miracle, then now he has seen the dawn of victory.
"This is really great news. Come on, celebrate."
Du Shaojie opened his arms, and Liang Meiqin naturally came forward.
He hugged her and turned around the room several times before putting her down.
Liang Meiqin seemed very excited today, as if she had endless things to say. Du Shaojie didn't leave until near noon and went to the private restaurant.
"Master Zhong, thank you for your hard work during this period!"
"Why? It's not for nothing. Manager Du, I'm glad you're back. Check the accounts quickly and pay our wages and bonuses. Don't say those useless things."
Zhong Fuxiang was naturally very happy to see Du Shaojie.
It was rare that he even made a joke and then drove Du Shaojie out of the kitchen. There were four tables at noon today. He didn't let Du Shaojie intervene and asked him to check the accounts quickly.
Du Shaojie didn't arrange the bonus distribution because he knew he wouldn't stay in Yangcheng for too long.
Zhong Fuxiang was joking just now. The wages must have been paid on time, and the bonuses were not paid on time.
Private restaurant and [Big Plate Chicken] specialty store do not have full-time accountants. In fact, most small restaurants use the form of running accounts. But he thought that was not good, so he found a part-time accountant.
The accountant and the cashier check the accounts once a week, which greatly facilitates Du Shaojie's accounting work.
After calculation, the profit of the private restaurant was 31,000 yuan last month.
Zhong Fuxiang received the first-tier bonus of 50 yuan per month, which was increased by 40% according to performance, that is, 70 yuan. Now, in addition to Zhong Fuxiang, his subordinates who received the first-tier bonus include Dong Jun and Yu Jianxin. People like Huang Tingting, Xiao Jianjun, Qin Xiaomei and others all received the second-tier bonus.
To be honest, the profit of the private restaurant now exceeded his expectations.
"It's a waste to leave the lounge upstairs there. Those special customers don't come every day, so it can be fully utilized."
Zhong Fuxiang explained his confusion after he was done. The lounge is a private room with tables and chairs. If an important guest comes, can't the tables and chairs be removed in advance?
The business of the private restaurant is so good now that reservations need to be made three to five days in advance. How can we not improve the utilization rate of the space?
After listening to this, Du Shaojie was a little moved. The old comrade is really different. He is very proactive. So he gave Zhong Fuxiang another bonus of 100 yuan without saying a word, calling it a "rationalization suggestion award".
When he went to the south this time, he clearly felt that the price of goods had loosened and some commodities began to rise in price.
The era of low income, low prices, and the supply of materials by ticket is about to pass. In this process, the situation of the dual-track system will continue for a long time, but everything has changed.
"Master Zhong, thank you. Next year, I plan to raise the bonus standard. As long as everyone works hard, I will not treat anyone unfairly."
Du Shaojie decided to follow the trend of the times to avoid being hit hard by the wage reform.
Zhong Fuxiang couldn't help laughing. No matter how it is changed, the most important thing is that everyone can get benefits.
Du Shaojie then went to the [Da Pan Ji] specialty store. The situation here is also very good, and the monthly profit has been able to stabilize at around 20,000 yuan.
Of course, whether it is a private restaurant or a [Da Pan Ji] specialty store, rent is not calculated. This fee will also be added starting from next year, so that real financial data can be obtained.
Four o'clock in the afternoon.
Du Shaojie went to the bureau office. There was nothing to do, just to show his face.
Then he went to the snack bar, and the day passed like this.
"Brother! Why are you here?"
"I came here from the bar when I was a child. I picked you up from school on the way."
"Okay, okay."
Du Shaojie picked up Xiaoya on his way home.
Xiaoya has grown very fast in the past two years. She is already over 1.63 meters tall, but her personality has not changed much. She is still lively, cheerful and loves to eat. She is definitely a foodie.
In the evening.
Du Shaojie prepared several dishes carefully, and Du Xiaoya ate them so deliciously.
Even Wang Yuxiu ate half a bowl of rice more than usual, which shows that during the time he was away, the mother and daughter did not eat anything good.
It's not that there are no good ingredients, but that they can't taste good. (End of this chapter)
