The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 318
There is a saying that the life of the rich is unimaginable.

We only know that Qiao Gang is rich, with an old house worth over [-] million yuan. Who would have thought that he is also engaged in real estate and has his own shopping mall.From the outside, he looks like an antique player, but it turns out that he is hiding something.

In fact, there are many low-key businessmen like him in our country, and those who always appear in the media may not be rich.They belong to the kind who retire after success, even if they donate money, they will not leave traces, but will appear in the name of a subsidiary company.

Such people are well versed in world affairs and know how to protect themselves wisely.Therefore, it is difficult to be a top bird, and the relationship with the officialdom is close, try not to touch it, and maintain a delicate balance.

They are not involved in gangsters, and follow the way of businessmen, only doing business and not talking about politics.There are many friends, from all corners of the country, and they are all between morality and righteousness.There are very few friendships like Gu Yi's. They can no longer be judged as friends, they are brothers.

After he settled the supermarket with one phone call, he said to Old Tan, "Brother Tan, please do something."

Old Tan was a little surprised, and hurriedly said, "Brother Qiao, what's the matter?"

"Brother's company also has a lot of managers. Hey, it's a joke to tell people. I spend a lot of money every year to send them out to study, but the effect is mediocre. It only takes three days to come back. After the heat is over, it's still the same. What? It doesn't work.

I heard from Qiao Shan a few years ago that your management team was trained by you. You speak well, are practical, down-to-earth, and you can learn something, and you are willing to listen.Especially when it comes to being a person and doing things, everyone is convinced.

I'm thinking about whether you can tell my brother's management when you are in good health, and help with training. "

It turned out that Lao Tan thought about it for a while and said, "Most of what I'm talking about is about catering, I'm afraid I may lead your elite astray."

"No deviation, the management is the same, no matter what kind of catering building, or buying and selling antiques." Qiao Gang laughed.

"That's fine. I'm fine anyway. I'm going to prepare, do courseware, and exercise. After May Day, I'll go home and see the children." Old Tan agreed.

After Qiao Gang and Gu Yi left, Zhou Xiaomei was busy going to the mall to sign the contract, and Lao Tan was left alone in the room. Just about to lie down for a while, Yaru led a lady in.

The lady is beautiful, buxom, and criminal to look at.

It's Tong Xin.

During the Chinese New Year, she called Lao Tan. Lao Tan knew about her situation and the meaning of her call. Without saying anything, she arranged to work as a store manager in Jining.

Tong Xin was grateful to Lao Tan, who did a good job there, and gradually recovered her relationship with her ex-husband and son.

She didn't come to Suzhou to see Lao Tan on purpose. Her son's comrade-in-arms in Suzhou opened a company and invited her son to start a business together.She mainly sent her son off and visited Lao Tan by the way.

Old Tan asked in surprise, "When did you come?"

"It arrived in the morning." Tong Xin said as she put down a bag of fruit, wiped the sweat off her face, and said, "What a coincidence, I just caught up with you to be discharged from the hospital."

"How did you find it?" Old Tan asked.

"My son's comrade-in-arms knew about our store and sent it to me. The waiter led me here."

"Oh--"

Yaru poured water for Tong Xin and put it down, and asked, "Sister Xin, haven't you eaten yet?"

"I've eaten it. I ate it at my son's comrade-in-arms. I'll come over after eating." Tong Xin said.

"Come back and stay for two days?" Yaru asked.

"I can't wait. I'll go back tomorrow. The store is busy." Tong Xin said.

"You're back—"

Tong Xin talked about sending his son off.

Speaking of children, the two women found a common topic and chatted together.Lao Tan felt a little tired, so he lay down and closed his eyes to rest.

To be honest, he misses his son a little bit. Although he is not at home these few years, it is much better than previous years, and he can stay with his son for two days.Besides, the son is getting older, and now the child matures precociously and understands many things. Sometimes the father and son can chat together.

He planned to return to the provincial capital tomorrow.

Called Zhou Xiaomei, Li Shuang and Xiao Gao that night, explained some things, and got on the plane the next day.

Lin Yan came home from get off work, opened the door and smelled the aroma of the food, and then heard her son shouting: "Mom is back."

Then I saw the meals and Lao Tan on the table.

She glanced at Lao Tan, looked him up and down, and asked, "Is everything all right?"

"Okay." Old Tan said.

"Okay, take two steps, let me see, don't cause any sequelae."

Old Tan took two steps, he was good after all, he didn't dare to strenuously with his legs, he limped.

"Why are you still lame?" Lin Yan asked.

"Can it be that fast? It's not good, you have to take it easy." Old Tan sat down and said to Lin Yan, "Let's eat."

This is the first time for a family of three to sit and eat together after the Spring Festival. Generally speaking, it is relatively harmonious.

During the meal, Lin Yan asked Lao Tan what his plan was, whether he was still planning to work in Aqiao, and Lao Tan said yes.

"I don't suggest you do it." Lin Yan said: "Tell me about you. You were injured in Hohhot, and now you are injured again. You still suffer for others. Don't do it. Open a small restaurant and care about earning more or less. What do you say? Do it for yourself too.”

"The main thing is that I won't be able to leave for a while," Old Tan said.

"Why can't you leave? Aren't you taking Xiaomei with you now? Isn't she taking over from you?" Lin Yan asked.

"It is to replace me, but it can't be handed over to her immediately, she still has to practice."

Lin Yan stopped the chopsticks holding the vegetables, and said, "I think you are reluctant, it would be nice to be there, traveling around in the palace—"

Old Tan smiled and said, "It's the emperor's return."

"I don't care about you, I'm just talking." Lin Yan turned cold and said, "Just get the money back by the end of the month. My son is still in school."

"Which month is missing you." Old Tan was a little annoyed.

"That's what you should do." Lin Yan said.

Old Tan gasped, stared at Lin Yan's face and said, "It should be, but you didn't say that."

"Okay, I don't want to tell you, don't delay my meal." Lin Yan turned to her son and said, "Hurry up and do your homework after eating."

"I've finished my homework," said the son.

"The review is over!"

Seeing Lin Yan like this old Tan lost his appetite, lit a cigarette and walked to the balcony, Lin Yan said behind him: "I still smoke, I don't know what it is, don't tell me if you vomit blood."

Then he shouted: "Stay at home like this, don't go out to drink, and continue to take anti-inflammatory drugs."

Old Tan let out a "huh".

"If I ask my dad to go out, I won't take it out. It's inconvenient for him to go up and down the stairs." The son said.

"That's right, once you hear about drinking, you'll be fine." Lin Yan said in a sarcastic tone.

Old Tan's voice came from the balcony: "Is that good for nothing?" Then he said: "I need someone to take care of me now, I can't do it alone—"

Lin Yan said, "Don't you have a son?"

"Aren't you my wife?" Old Tan said.

"I'm not your daughter-in-law. I'll go to whomever I like."

Old Tan exhaled smoke without making a sound, and shook his head.

"I told you not to smoke in the house, neither my son nor I can bear it." Lin Yan's voice came.

"Also, your medical expenses have been reported by the company, don't spend it yourself.

When you come back, someone must come to see you and ask for fruit and food, but you cannot accept money.

Don't tell me to watch women come to our house and make some nonsense—"
