Chapter 216 Su Hong Arrives 2
If it weren't for this relationship, Zhang Jing and Zhao Yi would be too ordinary for Su Hong, even though Zhao Yi and Zhang Jing are both working and Zhao Yi is a rare maintenance worker in the region.
To Su Hong, this was all normal. There were countless people like her in the factory where she worked.
Now the factory that he cooperates with his second uncle who lives far away overseas can even manufacture cars. People like Zhao Yi are rare in the village, but when put on the table, they can only be said to be ordinary.
"You two go ask for leave first, I'll wait for you here."
Su Hong said to the two of them.
Zhao Yi and Zhang Jing looked at each other, and then they went their separate ways.
Zhang Jing rode her bicycle to the garment factory, while Zhao Yi walked towards Li Mingzhu's office.
It only took Zhao Yi a few minutes to complete the whole process, and Zhang Jing might have just arrived at the factory.
"You own the restaurant across the street?"
Su Hong looked at Zhao Yi who was walking back and smiled.
"Um."
Zhao Yi nodded.
I just took a look around and I think you are a very brave guy. You may have some development if you go there.
Su Hong smiled.
For most people, a stable job is the most important thing. Although there are people doing business now, most of them are forced to do so because they have no job or source of income. Zhang Jing and Zhao Yi are both working people.
Although self-employed individuals are now allowed to run businesses, workers will not do such things because they are afraid that the authorities will suddenly prohibit business again. If this happens, they might be used as a handle to cause them to lose their stable jobs.
So when Su Hong heard Zhao Yi say that he opened the restaurant, she looked at Zhao Yi with a higher opinion. Only a few busy people in the restaurant didn't have this ability. Su Hong had met Zhang Xiang several times, but he didn't have this ability or the connections.
Even if the city is full of businesses, you may not even get any news.
So Zhao Yi is the most likely person, of course it is also possible that Zhao Yi helped take the lead.
But when Su Hong heard Zhao Yi admit that he did it, she was still very happy. At least it showed that Zhao Yi was not pedantic.
Su Hong has been staying in Kyoto, so he must have seen more than Zhao Yi. There are also many more young people who have returned to Kyoto than in the region. Many of the young people who have returned to the city have no jobs and no connections at home.
They can only make some food and sell it on the street. If their parents see them, they will say that they are not doing their job properly. It can be imagined that people nowadays do not approve of doing business, especially workers, even though they will buy.
The emergence of small vendors made it convenient to sell goods without tickets and at affordable prices, but for them, doing business was not a proper job.
Of course Su Hong knew that as long as she was not too high-profile in her business, or got approval from the higher-ups, then as long as nothing unexpected happened, she could still do business even if she only sold braised dishes on the street.
The taste is average, the price is affordable, and the weight is not insufficient. You can live a life without worries about food and clothing.
No one else can imitate Zhao Yi's business model. In the next few years, it can be said to be a unique business. The business is definitely incomparable to the current state-owned restaurants. Although Su Hong has never eaten there and has not seen how large the food portions are.
The procedures for Zhang Jing were rather complicated and it took until noon to complete the process.
When Zhang Jing came over, Su Hong was watching people walk into the restaurant and order food. When she saw that the portions of braised pork were no less than those in state-owned restaurants, Su Hong knew that Zhao Yi had a business mind.
Even if you don't need a ticket, the food is less than in state-owned restaurants. After a long time, people won't come and can only have a fresh meal. Once the supply is opened up in the future, that advantage will no longer exist.
But now it has accumulated a good reputation. Even if the supply is opened up in the future, this place will still be full of guests every day, because eating here has become a habit. As long as you don't offend customers over trivial matters, those who come here to eat now will become stable repeat customers in the future.
Zhang Jing came into the room and brought out a dish of braised pork, a dish of stewed pork, and a bowl of egg soup.
Invited Su Hong to have dinner.
Su Hong took a light bite and nodded. It's not that the taste was particularly good, but at least it wasn't bad. It was like an ordinary home-cooked meal. With this flavor, plus the habit of these few years, there would be no problem maintaining it in the future.
“Is it delicious?”
Zhang Jing asked with a smile.
“It tastes okay.”
Su Hong nodded.
Although Su Hong was looking at the customers, in fact the customers were also looking at Su Hong. People dressed like this are not usually seen, and now they are treating Su Hong like an animal in the zoo.
Su Hong didn't care about these furtive glances. Wearing such clothes and appearing on the street was indeed considered high-profile.
"Brother Yi, what's this?"
Li Baoyu, Chen Jiao and others also saw Su Hong for the first time, but the outfit she wore made them a little envious. When they saw Su Hong sitting with Zhao Yi and others for dinner, they came up to ask out of curiosity.
"This is my good sister Su Hong, who used to be an educated youth in Wangou Village. This is my cousin, and this is my second sister-in-law's family."
Zhang Jing introduced with a smile.
As for why they didn't introduce their names, Zhang Jing knew that this meeting was only because of her own reasons. Su Hong would not have much interaction with these people. Zhang Jing had been to Kyoto several times and knew what circle Su Hong belonged to. Those people went in and out in cars.
Nowadays, bicycles are luxury goods, and it is impossible for Baoyu and his friends to buy a car, even my family doesn’t have the chance to buy one.
"Hello."
Su Hong smiled and nodded.
"Hello, Sister Su."
Several people also shouted with a smile.
"I didn't bring any gifts for our first meeting, so these little things are for you as a gift."
Su Hong took out a few small items from her bag. They were all bought at a roadside stall in Hong Kong. At the time, she thought they were interesting and could sell them to Zhao Xuanxuan for fun. They were some fancy hairpins, and she brought them here for Zhao Xuanxuan.
"Thank you, Sister Su."
Several people were very happy to see such a beautiful hairpin.
After dinner, Su Hong took Zhang Jing's arm and went to the department store.
"Where's the little girl?"
"Your daughter is taking my parents on a wild ride."
Zhang Jing smiled.
Zhao Xuanxuan always calls Su Hong "Mom". Su Hong also feels that the little girl is likable so she accepts her as her goddaughter. She hasn't seen her for half a year and she looks quite like that girl. She doesn't know when she will come back from the south this time, so she bought her some beautiful dresses.
As they were talking, they walked towards the clothing counter and looked at some nice-looking pieces of braid.
"Oh, Xiao Jing, tell us what you have to say here quickly. We have to go there once. It's very close. It's troublesome to go back and forth. There is a large-scale development going on there now."
Su Hong spoke quickly as if she remembered something.
"I have already explained everything that needs to be explained. This time I am going to go with you to broaden your horizons."
Zhang Jing smiled.
Su Hong told Zhang Jing on the phone that there were many foreign products in the special economic zone, including large color TVs. Zhang Jing had rarely seen these things, so she was naturally very curious.
Su Hong paid for the travel expenses this time, so Zhang Jing naturally didn't feel any pressure.
