National Tide 1980.

Chapter 266 Candlelight Dinner

In 1976, the capital received less than 2 foreign guests a year.

But by 1980, the number of foreign guests had soared to 28, and accommodation suddenly became a rather thorny issue for the government.

At that time, there were only eleven hotels in the capital with better facilities for receiving foreign guests, with less than [-] rooms.

There are also some facilities that are outdated, need frequent maintenance, and are in a state of overloaded operation for a long time.

Even because there was a shortage of restaurants, when the embassies and consulates stationed abroad issued visas to foreigners who came to China, they had to first confirm whether their housing in the capital had been confirmed.

It can be said that at this time, our reception of foreign guests is really embarrassing.

After each foreign guest comes to the capital, the hotel must keep track of when and when to leave.

If a customer fails to check out as scheduled, the hotel has to find a way to lure such guests to Zhuozhou and Jinmen for an overnight stay.

Sometimes Zhuozhou and Jinmen can't live there anymore, and at night through the order letter, they will transfer the plane to Jinling to live with the guests.

Otherwise, foreign guests who cannot go to other places have to be arranged to spend the night in the restaurant or conference room of the hotel.

So the foreign guests inevitably complained, "We miss the capital and look forward to the capital, but why do we sleep in the restaurant when we come to the capital?"

Come to think of it, the situation would only get worse in 1982.

How could the Jianguo Hotel, which was originally established to solve this problem, be dissatisfied with its staff?

This is why, Pierre Caton has more and more employees in the Capital Hotel, and the scale of the company continues to expand.

But so far, the rented rooms are still only the original ones, which is why the company's office environment is becoming more and more crowded.

It's not that there is no money, but because there are few rooms.

You know, it is different from the joint venture Jianguo Hotel.

All the hotels in the capital, which still put political influence first, don't care so much about economic benefits, so it is even more difficult to squeeze out vacant rooms.

Therefore, the business of the "PC" clothing franchise store in Jianguo Hotel is booming!It became inevitable.

The first day of opening is actually the least turnover.

This also sold three suits, a set of women's clothing, and four shirts.Fifteen ashtrays and five silk figurines.

Five days later, the single-day turnover has increased from 3000 yuan to [-] yuan, and it will definitely exceed [-] yuan on weekends.

On average, selling more than [-] sets of clothing a day is no problem.

For this reason, Sai Tianxian, a fair lady, doesn't like red makeup and likes to work overtime, and the girls don't care about hard work for Ning Weimin.

Ning Weimin was of course embarrassed.

Taking advantage of May Day, he paid out of his own pocket and specially ordered a pure cream cake for each girl from the pastry room of the Jianguo Hotel, and asked them to take it to their families that day.

This holiday gift is not only a kind of encouragement and affirmation to these girls' positive work attitude, but also a kind of apology and compensation for their inability to spend the holiday with their families.

At the same time, Ning Weimin also canceled the handicraft discount at the Zhai Palace Exhibition Hall, and even raised the price by 5.00%.

And arrangements have been made for the training of new employees after the festival.

It's nothing else, he won't worry about selling things, he has already spotted it, and the business will only get hotter in the future.

Why earn less when you can earn more!Sufficient manpower must also be prepared as soon as possible!

Of course, there is an important person who needs to be appeased in the end.

That was Huo Xin who successfully pleased the leader and kept him.

In order to reward this great contribution, Ning Weimin made a special trip to host a banquet in the French restaurant of Jianguo Hotel.

For such an invitation, Huo Xin was flattered and overjoyed.

Because I don't know what happened, when Huo Xin and Ning Weimin got along, they looked down on him from the beginning, and later they looked at him with admiration and were upset.

Gradually it turned into uncompromising admiration and appreciation, so much so that now he is so obsessed that he always acts according to his face.

This feeling is very unique, and it has never happened to Huo Xin, a proud girl.

Deep down, she's both a little dreading the feeling and enjoying it at the same time.

Because since she has someone she likes, she has a real sense of belonging.

As long as Ning Weimin treats her better, she will be full of joy in life.

As long as Ning Weimin gave her some positive answers, she felt that her life was particularly fulfilling.

She began to understand one thing. For a woman, the most important thing is not to have a lifelong partner who fully meets her own wishes.

So when Ning Weimin invited him this time with a soft light in his eyes.

"Huo Xin, your work has been very good recently. I hope you will do a good job in the future, take up a more important position, and become my right-hand man. How about this, don't I still owe you a meal? Then after get off work today, let me ask you When you eat, I should thank you."

Huo Xin agreed without even thinking about it.

"Okay, I didn't expect you to be quite romantic. A candlelight dinner is very suitable for a date..."

It's just that she reacted so quickly, coupled with this obviously misunderstood sentence.

Ning Weimin couldn't help being startled again, and suddenly felt annoyed that he had made a bad move.

However, now that the words have been spoken, it is too late for him to regret it, and it is definitely not enough to evade it now.

I can only bite the bullet and perfunctory.

"This is what it should be. I will not treat those who work hard for me badly. Just order whatever you want, don't consider the price. Don't treat me as a leader, and don't be polite to me."

To be honest, although Ning Weimin couldn't hide the dryness on his expression.

But Huo Xin didn't see it at all.

You know, love brain is really a disease, and girls who are caught in their own emotions are also paranoid.

Now Huo Xin is almost the most typical patient.

She will only look at the problem according to her own understanding.

Thus, she saw a new level in Ning Weimin's politeness that did not exist at all.

And this step made her heart beat, flustered, and full of anticipation.

"He wants to date me?"

Huo Xin's darling, "plop plop" kept dancing.

"That's right, his consciousness is that he wants to associate with me, I'm absolutely right..."

The heart is full of enthusiasm, and the ripples continue.

But on the surface, they had to pretend to be calm.

Otherwise, it will make people feel frivolous and without depth.

Especially for beautiful women, this is the most taboo thing.

I don't know how many times this truth has been said by Huo Xin's mother, so Huo Xin remembered it.

So she smiled slightly, and didn't express too much, just said, "Then I will be disrespectful."

In the end, she pretended to be calm, which somewhat reassured Ning Weimin.

Things in the world are like this, expectations and reality are often at odds.

Especially the matter between men and women, because it is difficult for anyone to explain, misunderstandings are everywhere, and it is difficult to clarify.

It is also difficult to grasp and predict specific changes.

Like that night, this meal was more interesting.

Ning Weimin's original intention was to just have a meal.

When people come, order food, bury your head in eating when the food comes, and leave after eating. If you leave, it is a victory.

Unexpectedly, Huo Xin dressed herself up meticulously in order to show her charm.

She bought a set of "PC" clothes, and after changing into them, she attended with great solemnity.

Not to mention, a confident woman is indeed unstoppable,

When the gorgeously dressed Huo Xin appeared in Justine's restaurant with a small bag Tingting on her shoulders.

The gold thread on her new clothes, and the gorgeous outfit, in the soft light and candlelight of the restaurant, dazzled Ning Weimin, who had been waiting for her for a long time, and almost couldn't open his eyes.

For the first time, he discovered the dazzling beauty of the opposite sex on Huo Xin.

"Hey! This figure, this line, this dress... Isn't she too cold?"

Even the other guests in the restaurant were dumbfounded.

There are also many foreign women who are angry with their silly-looking foreign husbands because of Huo Xin's appearance.

So Ning Weimin stood up and waited for Huo Xin to sit down. He didn't order anything else, so he ordered a jug of lemon juice from the waiter first.

I drank the half liter of liquid in one breath.

This is entirely due to the effect of hormones. Simply greedy, I can't resist it at all.

Just like that, Ning Weimin felt very uncomfortable today.How would you like to eat this meal?

His mind is really a little dizzy, and his performance is far from being as calm as usual.

As for his attentive serving of dishes and refills of wine, he was going to talk about work, but he didn't say anything because of his hunger and thirst.

But his performance like this made Huo Xin so happy that his heart almost jumped out.

She regarded this meal as the happiest meal she had ever eaten in her life.

From then on, she will always remember the hot eyes that Ning Weimin looked at her.

She really felt the joy of being a woman who pleases herself.
