Chapter 327 Zhang Tong's Choice
"I still have a small request." Zhang Tong said to Wang Qian, "Although I'm honored to help Auntie manage the hot pot shop or something. But I actually have some ideas of my own. .”
Wang Qian looked at Zhang Tong and said noncommittally, "Oh, tell me."
"It's like this. Although I said that I am willing to help you manage the hot pot restaurant in the future. But at the same time, I don't want to close the small shop I am opening now." Zhang Tong expressed his thoughts. This made Wang Qian a little confused: "Huh? Why?" Wang Qian really didn't understand Zhang Tong's idea.
Because if Zhang Tong wants to help him manage the hot pot restaurant, then he will be very busy. If you are distracted from opening this small shop, it may affect the normal operation of the hot pot restaurant. Wang Qi frowned: "If the hot pot restaurant opens, your monthly income will be more than that of this small shop. Today I helped you take care of the business at night. Although you have a lot of customers, your restaurant sells The price of the food is not expensive, and the materials used are a bit too good for restaurants. In the catering industry, the cost of general materials cannot exceed 25% of the total price."
"If you sell a meal for 10 yuan, the cost of ingredients should not exceed 2.5 yuan, otherwise you will not make any money. Because the 10 yuan also includes the expenses of artificial water and electricity and store rent." Wang Qi has a great say on how the catering industry should make money.
"Even if the small shop you opened has no rent, most of the labor is your own. The wages of Xiao Xiao and Xiao Hei are not high. But your cost is still very high, and the price is so low. Although the flow of people It’s big, but your monthly net profit is at most 20,000 yuan.” Wang Qian only stayed for one dinner to figure out the profitability of Zhang Tong’s small shop.
Zhang Tong smiled awkwardly: "Hehe, you are really an old Jianghu." The price Wang Qian calculated was really about the same. If he didn't count the windfall, he would earn around 20,000 yuan a month. profit only.
"The hot pot restaurant has opened, and the salary I will give you is definitely more than 20,000 yuan a month." Wang Qian looked at Zhang Tong as if she wanted to see through him: "So why do you still guard this small shop here? And This will also affect the daily business of hot pot restaurants."
After thinking for a while, Zhang Tong said: "Actually, I don't value money that much. It doesn't make much difference to me personally whether I earn 10,000 a month or 20,000 a month. I'm a person whose desire is not so strong. I don’t want to be an entrepreneur to make a lot of money, or become a restaurant tycoon or something. I just want to live a comfortable and ordinary life.”
What Zhang Tong said is true, if no one disturbs him, he can live slowly at his own pace. So even if it is his own powerful power, Zhang Tong will not use it indiscriminately. At most, it is used for dust removal and sterilization when cleaning.
Then I chase after the girl I like, and then I just live my whole life like this and die of old age. This kind of life is very good. How can there be so many power struggles and disputes. In Zhang Tong's view, some people like to pursue power, fame and money, which is understandable, because this is everyone's ideal. Everyone has their own pursuits, and what they pursue is actually a relatively peaceful life, as long as no one disturbs them. Of course, I will secretly deal with the troubles that come to me, and then continue my life.
Sometimes gaining power is not to pursue money and power, but to obtain a right to choose. It's like when Zhang Tong read "Swordsman" when he was studying, he just thought it was a martial arts novel, but only after he read "Swordsman" recently did he understand a lot of its deep meaning. In particular, he understood that Liu Zhengfeng was only a confidant with the elders of the Demon Sect in music, but why did the golden basin lose his hand; and Linghu Chong could take the Demon Sect saint aunt Ren Yingying out of the arena calmly, and no one bothered him? In the final analysis, it was just because Linghu Chong was already the number one swordsman in the world at that time. When he retired from the world, how many people dared to say that he would be able to beat him? If Liu Zhengfeng had the same strength as Linghu Chong, who would dare to fart when he was washing his hands?
In the final analysis, great power is only the basis for making choices, and it does not mean that if you have great power, you must choose the correct route that everyone thinks you should choose: striving for the king.
"Actually, I'm not afraid of your jokes. I'm a person without much ambition. I just want to live a mediocre life." Zhang Tong smiled helplessly: "If possible, I would like to live like this. But I also know that being a person in this world always requires some responsibility. Just like Jiang Hua, she will always shoulder her own responsibilities and do her own thing."
"So I don't resist taking on my own responsibilities." Zhang Tong said lightly: "And this small shop is one of my thoughts." Speaking of this, there is an indescribable nostalgia in Zhang Tong's eyes: "Here Everything that happened seemed to happen right in front of my eyes.”
"I bought this store from our family, the decoration of the store, and the purchase of materials. My parents get up early and go to bed late every day to work in the kitchen, and the guests who greet them. Just standing here I can feel all of this. Everything happened in front of my eyes. It seems that everything happened yesterday, and I seem to be able to touch everything that happened yesterday." Zhang Tong said here with a helpless smile: "I am a very family-loving person. , I hate my time-traveling. Because of the time-traveling, I lost more than ten years of being here with my parents. I couldn’t even send them on their last journey.”
"Every day I was in another world, I was thinking about how to go home. I tried my best to go home. But I came back too late. I could only kneel in front of my parents' grave and cry, but there was nothing I could do. Because everything It was too late. They couldn’t tell me how much they suffered, how much they suffered, how much they cried and soaked the pillow covers. Many stories were told before they had a happy ending. It's a different person." Speaking of which, Wang Qian noticed that there was a trace of tears in Zhang Tong's eyes. Ruthless is not necessarily a real hero, how can Lianzi not be a husband?
"Here I can feel the footprints of my life in this world. So after I came back, I decided to run this small shop until the day I couldn't do it anymore. This is my personal choice and my point Be self-willed." After Zhang Tong finished speaking, he looked at Wang Qian and said softly, "I hope you can understand."
Wang Qian looked at Zhang Tong, and after a long time, she sighed softly: "You child, you are also an idiot."
