Chapter 999 The Pork Ribs Rice Cake Is so Delicious
Every time he comes to Huanghe Road, Wang Yan always chats with Jingxiu for a while. Jingxiu is also willing to take out the Huazi that he is reluctant to smoke and give one to Brother Wang. Now that there is herbal tea, the weather is getting better and better. As the heat gets hotter, Jingxiu also gives a can of Qingxin herbal tea that costs two yuan.
It's a good friendship over a cigarette and a cup of tea.
"Brother Wang is going to Zhizhen Garden again, right?" Jingxiu looked like I knew it.
Wang Yan smiled and nodded.
"The boss lady of Zhizhenyuan is really awesome. Last time Brother Wang came over, didn't I tell Mr. Bao that Zhizhenyuan would only be open for three months? But I don't know how Zhizhenyuan negotiated with Jin Meilin and the others. In the past week or so, every hotel has changed their gas pipelines and added more stoves in the kitchen. It seems that they have all reached an agreement."
At this point, Jingxiu asked curiously, "Brother Wang didn't help, right?"
"Has Ms. Wang been to Huanghe Road recently?"
"Coincidentally, Miss Wang also asked me the same question. She also wore a pair of pearl earrings and said they were given by Mr. Bao."
Wang Yan smiled and drank Qingxin herbal tea.
"Oh, by the way, Brother Wang, you also know Mr. Fan, right?"
Seeing Wang Yan nodding, Jing Xiu smiled and said, "Mr. Fan is cooperating with Mr. Bao, isn't it? The brand is called Sanyang. I heard that it was originally scheduled to be launched on the Dragon Boat Festival. It has already been reported in the newspaper. Later, for some reason, it was changed to a few days later." On Valentine's Day, it was at the Hulian Commercial Building on Nanjing Road. Mr. Fan was so anxious that he ran around every day. Looking at Mr. Fan's appearance and the sudden change of the launch date, many people thought that Mr. Bao was It’s going to be a miss once.”
"What do you think?"
"I think Mr. Fan can't keep his temper."
"You're right, Jingxiu, now is a good time for doing business. There are laid-off workers and laid-off workers, and there is no shortage of workers and people with connections who are partners. You should have a lot of savings, right? Have you ever thought about starting a business?”
"It's a small business. If I can earn some money by guarding the phone booth here, I'll be satisfied. I can earn some hard-earned money. I can't get rich and I can't lose it. But I also have other ways to make money. Speaking of which, I still rely on Brother Wang. What a blessing."
Facing Wang Yan's questioning eyes, Jing Xiu smiled and spoke.
"I pay more attention to Brother Wang's business. I knew about it when you first started working in logistics. Later you launched a model of cooperation with car owners. I felt that Brother Wang was riding high and was right. So I borrowed some money. With my own savings, I bought a Dongfeng. My eldest cousin who was laid off from his job and his eldest son learned how to get a truck license. They formed a partnership and were affiliated with Caocao Logistics, running the Beijing-Shanghai line. It’s been a year now. Okay, I’m almost getting my car money back.”
"Not bad." Wang Yan nodded with a smile.
Nowadays, it is very profitable to do logistics. Jingxiu’s choice is more correct. If he buys a car by himself, it is not easy to make money by doing it blindly. After all, it's hard to deal with the car bandits and road hogs, and it's hard to negotiate the price for a job. It's different when you are affiliated with a company. Your business is guaranteed and your safety is guaranteed. This is the most important thing. There are even special driver homes in some cities, where you can be assured of rescue, car repairs, etc.
"When you make enough money, you can buy a new car. But in the future, the roads will be better, the security will be better, and there will be more cars, the freight will not be as expensive as it is now. It will become lower and lower, and drivers and car owners will become more and more expensive. The harder it is. But generally speaking, you can make money for twenty years with a minimum guarantee."
"What happens next?"
"Who can say for sure?" Wang Yan shook his head, put out the cigarette butt, and put down the empty herbal tea can, "Goodbye."
"Goodbye, Brother Wang."
Jingxiu still waved her hands so enthusiastically...
Equally enthusiastic was Manager Pan who was standing at the gate of Zhizhen Garden. She came up to greet him: "Boss Wang is here. Are you going to take a private room or a banquet today?"
"If you can sit on the Santai, sit on the Santai. Why am I a freeloader asking for so much? I am wasting your private room by myself and delaying business."
"Here you go, Boss Wang." He led Wang Yan to a corner seat by the window, and Manager Pan left. I didn’t ask what kind of food to eat, so I naturally served whatever was delicious. More than ten dishes were placed on the small square table.
After drinking the tea served by the waiter, it didn’t take long for the table to be filled with dishes one after another. At this time, Li Li came over with a bottle of Maotai and sat across from him. After pouring the wine, he touched it with Wang Yan.
Then he spoke to Wang Yan: "The matter has been resolved. Thank you very much, Boss Wang, for taking care of me."
"Drink less." Wang Yan smiled, then raised his head and drank the entire glass of wine.
Li Li didn't miss any wine this time, so he drank the same stuffy drink. Seeing Wang Yan's funny look, she picked up the food and drank the wine, took a breath, and said with a smile: "When the wine comes, you feel the mood."
"Crap."
"Zhizhenyuan has a total of eighty-eight tables, including private tables and private rooms. Eighty-seven tables are like this."
Wang Yan smiled: "I heard the relief in your words."
He was sure that Li Li would do things in his name because he was more powerful and simple and direct. Abao, who is similar to his old friend Mr. A, obviously does not have as strong a deterrent as Wang Yan.
Moreover, Li Li does not have a backer, and she actually does not have much money. In the play, the uncle said that Li Lipan Hotel took out a bankbook with a turnover of 30 million. The turnover was 30 million, not the actual capital of 30 million. A very simple analogy is that an account running scoreboards and money laundering has a lot of turnover, but the head of the household doesn’t have much money and is still in jail.
Then of course she would choose the simple and direct method without hesitation to solve the trouble as soon as possible.
Just like in the original drama, Li Li's fight with the proprietresses of several other restaurants, and with the help of Po, seems to be really good and hot. But in fact, the non-happening of all this is more advanced and more powerful.
It seems that now, even if it hadn't been for A Bao's previous announcement that it would only last three months, people knew that the other boss ladies headed by Lu Meilin would definitely cause trouble, because there was a precedent of Golden Phoenix to follow. But suddenly, Jin Meilin and other restaurants began to renovate the gas supply and add new stoves in the kitchen. Everyone understood that something must have happened, and Lu Meilin and others relented.
This will make Li Li more mysterious and unfathomable, and the benefits to her will obviously be greater.
"It's easy to solve a problem without losing any blood. But Boss Wang, I'm curious about something. Can you explain it to me?"
"Tell me."
Li Li leaned forward: "Three years ago, Lu Meilin invited you and Mr. Tao to have dinner at Jin Meilin. What happened that day? Why is Jin Meilin so afraid of you?"
"You don't seem to be a curious woman."
"Sometimes too."
"It's okay to tell you. At that time..." Wang Yan shook his head in a funny way and briefly talked about what happened when Du Honggen pointed a gun at Jin Meilin.
Li Li's eyes passed through the glass, looking at the black Poussin parked next to the Jingxiu phone booth, and then turned back to Wang Yan, who was eating food leisurely.
"Boss Wang is really awesome." That was all she could say.
"It's just that I have learned some boxing before, and being alone, I am not afraid of anything." Wang Yan said it lightly.
"You shouldn't be short of money to buy a better car now, right? Why are you still driving this Santana?"
"There are actually other cars, but I'm used to driving this one, and that car has actually been modified, so it's still very comfortable. You'll know how it feels when you feel it."
Li Li smiled politely: "Boss Wang, eat slowly. I'll go and get busy first. If you need anything, ask the waiter anytime. You are the most distinguished guest of Zhizhenyuan."
Wang Yan shook his head in a funny way and started eating his food...
After the meal, he drove slowly across the Yellow River Road to feel the prosperity of the day, and then went for a stroll by the Suzhou River.
While he was driving, he turned his eyes inadvertently and saw Mr. Fan squatting outside Red Heron, chewing something. Immediately, as soon as the steering wheel turned, Wang Yan's car stopped in front of Mr. Fan.
Mr. Fan saw a Santana parked directly in front of him and stood up, sullenly ready to curse. But no matter what, it was Boss Wang who saw Boss Wang turning off the engine and getting out of the car.
The originally angry expression suddenly turned into a silly smile. He walked up to her and said, "Oh, what a coincidence, Mr. Wang, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Wang Yan took out Huazi and gave one to Mr. Fan. He lit one himself and looked up at the glass window on the second floor of Honglu. People were flickering there. If nothing else, there should be the same group of women socializing enthusiastically. , Miss Wang singing with a microphone.
He said: "I heard that Sanyang's launch date has been changed to Valentine's Day, February 14th. It's only a few days away. If you don't go back and ensure the transportation of goods, why are you guarding Miss Wang here?"
"Oh, don't mention Mr. Wang. Seeing that Sanyang is about to go on the market, I can't find Mr. Bao. I heard that they are either driving some Remy Martin or dancing some disco. Where is Miss Wang, look, look Look at her, Mr. Wang, it’s already this time, and she’s still here drinking and singing with others.
I don’t think they take me Sanyang seriously at all. There are thousands of workers in my factory, they spent millions on raw materials, and pressed on tens of millions of goods. If I don’t become a famous brand in Shanghai for a day, I can’t do it for a day. Peace of mind. Look, Mr. Wang, I’ve just eaten this much oil in one day. "
Wang Yan shook his head and patted his shoulder: "The contract you signed with Mr. Bao is an underwriting contract. If it doesn't sell, you will pay millions. Mr. Bao will also pay you liquidated damages. It's basically enough for you to recover the cost, right? Let it go. It's easy. Have you sent all the clothes?"
"What was delivered today is from Mr. Wang's Caocao Logistics, which is very reliable. Mr. Wang, I can't help but be anxious. You know your business is big, and good opportunities come only once in a lifetime. Sanyang's sales are not good, it's true. The compensation cannot be too much, the factory can bear it.
But Mr. Wang, what about the unearned money? It was possible to make money, but because Mr. Bao didn't do it well, he couldn't make the money he should have made. In that case, he would have lost tens of millions. Moreover, Sanyang has become a famous brand in Shanghai, which is crucial to the future development of our factory. Such a big thing cannot be taken lightly. "
At this time, Red Heron's store manager Ruth sent the customer out, heard Mr. Fan's loud voice, and saw Wang Yan standing with Mr. Fan.
She smiled and walked over to say hello: "Boss Wang, when you come to the door of Honglu, why don't you come in and sit for a while? Even if you don't eat, it's good to have a cup of tea. Miss Wang is entertaining friends upstairs."
Before Wang Yan could say anything, Mr. Fan took two steps forward and said, "Oh, I'm just here to see Miss Wang. I'm Fan Xinhua. Could you please go up and call Miss Wang down?"
"This..." Ruth looked at Wang Yan, and seeing the latter smiling and nodding, she responded, "Boss Wang, Mr. Fan, please wait a moment, I'll go up and call Miss Wang."
"Mr. Wang still has face on Huanghe Road."
"What kind of face is this? Ruth and I have known each other for a long time."
"Oh, yes, yes, I have forgotten for a moment, Mr. Wang started his business selling mutton skewers here."
Within a few words between the two of them, Miss Wang walked out of Honglu, first looked at Mr. Fan angrily, and then looked at Wang Yan even more angrily.
"Why did you two go together?"
"Mr. Wang was passing by and he met me." Mr. Fan didn't care so much and took two steps forward. "Ms. Wang, where is Mr. Bao? Where is Mr. Bao? Miss Wang, you must help me find him." he……"
Mr. Fan said roughly the same words as he just said to Wang Yan. The central idea was still the same. Abao was not working hard for Sanyang to go on sale.
Miss Wang was quite impatient, and finally waited for Mr. Fan to finish talking. She also said in the same loud voice: "Mr. Fan, you have such a good voice, why don't you start storytelling? From the beginning to now, you are the one who has failed... Xiaobu Do you know who are the people who ate and sang with me? The editor of "Shanghai Fashion", the photographer from Hong Kong and his model...
Mr. Bao paid for me to entertain them. Only when these people wear whatever they want will other people imitate them. If you ask a few uncles and aunts to buy two or three pieces, Sanyang will not become a hot commodity. I work voluntarily here, you know I don’t have to do these things, right? You are in such good spirits here, you go and stay with them while I go back to sleep. "
After Miss Wang finished speaking, she turned around and left without looking at Mr. Fan. When she passed by Wang Yan, she was caught by Wang Yan. Ms. Wang shook her hard but did not shake her away. When she heard Wang Yan say, "I will send you off," she stopped struggling.
Mr. Fan asked in surprise: "Really? Miss Wang E?"
"Fake!" Miss Wang was still angry.
"Ms. Wang, you can go back to sleep peacefully. I'll go up and accompany them. In fact, I, Old Fan, can sing pretty well, too, isn't it Annie? I can sing. Mr. Wang, I'm going up. Goodbye."
"Goodbye." Wang Yan nodded with a smile and watched Mr. Fan go upstairs to sing Annie.
"Can you let go?" Miss Wang's dissatisfied voice sounded.
"It's not loose."
Although he said so, Wang Yan still let go: "Get in the car and take you back."
Miss Wang snorted, went straight around to the passenger seat, opened the door and got in.
Wang Yan started the car and continued on the road.
"Why are you here with Mr. Fan? Did you go to Zhizhen Garden again?"
"so smart."
Miss Wang snorted: "I heard that the restaurants on Huanghe Road have recently borrowed Li Li's credit and added more stoves in the kitchen. People are talking about it being Li Li who dealt with Lu Meilin and the others. Did you help?"
"That's not even possible. I just asked Li Li to take my name and talk to Lu Meilin."
"Isn't that the same? If Lu Meilin doesn't give you face, why don't you still want to make trouble for her? You are really interested in Li Li."
"I have only met her three times so far." Wang Yan shook his head and changed the subject directly, "I heard that Mr. Bao gave you a pair of pearl earrings?"
"Hey, that's what you're wearing." Miss Wang also deliberately lifted her hair and tilted her body so that Wang Yan could take a closer look.
"It's very beautiful, don't you want to hand it in?"
"It looks good, so of course I should keep it for myself."
If Wang Yan doesn't ask, then Miss Wang will probably turn it in. But when he asked, Miss Wang deliberately wanted to compete with him and decided to stay. But as said before, a pair of earrings is not the main problem;
Seeing Wang Yan, he just smiled and said nothing.
Miss Wang asked: "Where did you hear about it?"
"Jingxiu told me. I asked him if Miss Wang had been to Huanghe Road recently. Jingxiu said, 'What a coincidence, Miss Wang also asked me the same question. She also wore a pair of pearl earrings, which she said were treasures. Always given.'"
Obviously, Miss Wang would not pay attention to pearl earrings at this time, but asked angrily: "Why are you asking about me?"
"Then why are you asking about me?"
"Leave me alone?"
"Leave me alone?"
"Oh, this is so annoying." Miss Wang couldn't bear the frivolity and ambiguity in Wang Yan's words, so she slapped him angrily.
Maybe women all have the habit of being hands-on, but this is also a good sign. Because this means eliminating the unfamiliar safe distance and bringing each other closer.
"Look, if you can't talk, you have to take action."
"I'll just beat you. No man is good."
"Don't make trouble, we are driving now. If one of us falls into a ditch or hits a wall, we will both leave together, and you won't be able to stay with me if you don't want to."
"Fuck you as hard as you can, the devil will be with you."
"Then what did I say?"
Miss Wang rolled her eyes, crossed her arms, turned her head and looked out the window, ignoring Wang Yan.
This is really a damn man. I am really happy to be with him, but I can't help but think of him as a playboy, and he declares it without any embarrassment, without hiding any bad intentions.
If she doesn't speak, Wang Yan won't stop talking. A few words of happiness were enough. Of course he also understood that Miss Wang was fighting again in her heart.
When they were approaching the downstairs of Miss Wang's house, Miss Wang asked, "Have you been to the Spare Ribs Rice Cake recently?"
"not yet."
"Why?"
"I'm always afraid that I won't be able to meet you."
"I think I'm used to the big meals at Zhizhenyuan, so I no longer want to eat pork ribs and rice cakes."
Wang Yan stopped the car abruptly, shifted into neutral, and pulled the handbrake all at once. When Miss Wang was confused, he stretched out his hands to hold her face, and nibbled on Miss Wang's mouth.
"Well……"
The lips touched, and the strong manly breath hit her. Miss Wang's eyes suddenly widened, and her mind went blank. After she came to her senses, she continued to hammer and struggle with her bastard fists.
But in the end, the hammering and struggling only lasted for a while. As the temperature in the car heated up, Miss Wang took the initiative to hold Wang Yan's neck, and was fascinated by this sudden, passionate, and unforgettable kiss...
After a long time, their lips parted. Miss Wang pushed Wang Yan away hard, panting heavily with a blushing face. She glared at Wang Yan fiercely, rubbed her mouth with her sleeve, and punched Wang Yan again in frustration. On Wang Yan's body.
"It's disgusting." She was very dissatisfied.
"I don't even dislike you."
"You are acting like a hooligan, do you know that? I'm going to call the police, and you just wait to be shot."
"I'm telling you, I'm willing to eat pork ribs rice cake. The pork ribs rice cake is so delicious." Wang Yan raised an eyebrow at Miss Wang with a smile on his face.
For a moment, Miss Wang's face turned even redder. She hit Wang Yan hard again and shouted, "I'm annoying you to death!"
Then, he turned around, opened the door and got out of the car, slammed the door hard, and ran away quickly.
It was not far from the downstairs of Miss Wang's house, and Wang Yan did not chase her. He just turned on the headlights, lit a flower, lowered the window, and watched Miss Wang run back.
It wasn't until no one was seen that he started again, turned around and left. If Miss Wang can sleep well tonight, he will lose...
Abao has indeed put in a lot of effort in order for Sanyang to go on sale and become a hit, just like in the play. Especially after going to Zhizhenyuan for a meal and Li Li got pirated mercerized cotton clothes from nowhere, which were not damaged by fire, he was actually more anxious than anyone else.
Even though his net worth is much higher than at the same time, no one would dislike having more money. This Sanyang deal would bring him millions of profits. Furthermore, his reputation is there. If Sanyang does not do well, it will have an impact on him in the future.
Ms. Wang affirmed that certain factors accounted for it, but it was definitely not the whole reason.
In the blink of an eye, the time has arrived on February 14th, which is Valentine's Day in the West. It is the great day that Mr. Fan has been looking forward to for a long time when Sanyang goes on the market.
Wang Yan, however, came to Night Tokyo after his daily exercise and breakfast.
Lingzi, Teacher Ge, Linghong, Xiaowen, and Xiaoqin were picking vegetables, while Tao Tao was chopping ingredients in the kitchen with a desperate look on his face.
Hearing the bell tied to the door ringing, and seeing Wang Yan walking in, Lingzi greeted him enthusiastically.
"Boss Wang is here, oh, Big Brother is so heavy, just leave it here." Lingzi took the Big Brother in Wang Yan's hand and put it on the counter, and took out a bottle of Qingxin herbal tea, " Are you thirsty? Hey, this is the new Qingxin herbal tea. I heard that drinking it is good for your health and can also stimulate your appetite."
Not only that, she even opened the tab and inserted a straw into it, which was a considerate service.
"You were so anxious on the phone. What did you say? Boss Wang, it's not good, something happened in Tokyo Night City. Come here quickly. I can't do it without you. Did I remember correctly?"
"Yes. Today Sanyang is on sale at Hulian Commercial Building. Mr. Bao shipped a batch of Sanyang goods here before, so I asked the young monk to go to Hulian Commercial Building to pay attention to the news. Once Sanyang is sold over there It’s hot, let’s sell it here.”
"What does it have to do with me?"
"Oh, Boss Wang, it's hard to say things like this." Under Wang Yan's deep gaze, Lingzi stopped pretending and showed off her cards.
She said, "Okay, okay, there must be someone paying attention to what's going on in the Hulian Commercial Building. I don't have so many employees like you, and you can call hundreds or even thousands of people."
"So you sent the young monk there?"
"That's right, then there will be no chef in the store. Boss Wang, it's not my fault. You still need to practice cooking from time to time. Otherwise, your good skills will be rusty, and your cooking will not taste good in the future. . Now there is such a good opportunity for you. You can help me for half a day and it will be done after lunch. How about it? Help me? "
Lingzi bumped into Wang Yan with her shoulder, "Oh, Boss Wang, we are all friends, it's okay to help."
"If you say that, I still need a warm bed. How about you come back with me tonight?"
Teacher Ge, Ling Hong, and Tao Tao beside them started to make noises. Lingzi waved her hands angrily: "Let's play hard."
Another slap was slapped on Wang Yan's back: "Just tell me whether you can help me or not."
"Everyone is here, how about leaving?" Wang Yan shook his head, took off his coat and was taken over by Lingzi, "You have heard the story about the boy who cried wolf, Lingzi, you have to be careful."
"Oh, you can't be the same as me. Hurry up, it's almost ten o'clock, it's time to get married." Lingzi didn't care and urged Wang Yan to work together.
Wang Yan smiled and walked into the kitchen.
Tao Tao looked at Lingzi who happily went back to pick vegetables. She came over and said to Wang Yan: "Boss Wang, do you think Lingzi is bored to death? Oh, I was playing mahjong all night yesterday, so you asked me to come over to work. I don’t feel like this at home.”
"Fangmei feels sorry for you." Wang Yan said with a smile, "Who are you playing mahjong with? My sister-in-law?"
"Hehe~" Tao Tao smiled and nodded.
"Have you got any ideas? Fangmei is afraid that she will chop you with a knife."
"It must be broken into pieces." Tao Tao looked scared and shuddered, "Boss Wang, sometimes I envy you very much. Of course I envy you for having so much money, but what I envy you even more is , you are so free."
"Go away and get sore. This is for women, not for men, understand? If it were you, you would be chopped down by Fangmei. What, you and my sister-in-law slept together?"
"Don't you dare to talk nonsense, Boss Wang, we are innocent and have done nothing. I'm scared too." Tao Tao shook his head repeatedly. After saying this, he couldn't help but smile crazily, "We are just talking. What matters is love, what matters is etiquette, is that what they say?"
"yes."
"You don't know, Boss Wang, my little sister-in-law's eyes are sparkling. Every time she looks over and smiles at me, oh, it's like a kitten scratching her heart and liver, so soft and numb..." Tao Tao looked intoxicated.
"You are dead."
"No, Boss Wang, don't you want to tell Fang Mei? You must not..."
"Of course the wife is the one who knows her husband best. It's okay now. Fangmei will definitely notice it as time goes by. And you are so afraid of Fangmei. You might be caught in a dream and talk in your sleep. Then you will be in trouble."
"Hiss..." Tao Tao took a breath of air.
It's always lively when a bunch of people get together. In the midst of this excitement, time passed slowly.
The phone in the Tokyo store kept ringing at night, so Lingzi took Xiaowen and Xiaoqin to move the boxes of clothes up and down. Finally, near noon, Fei Xiang appeared on Nanjing Road and sang a song that was a hit in winter, and Sanyang's sales boomed.
Lingzi and the others were overjoyed. Tao Tao stopped talking about the little sister-in-law and immediately moved two boxes of clothes back to Guling Road to sell them. Linghong also sold them in the store. Lingzi started to sell to the diners in the hotel. Poor Teacher Ge, holding a piece of clothing, stood outside and used a voice like a mosquito to attract Lingzi.
Wang Yan was in the kitchen, rattling a large spoon...
