Urban Evil Emperor

For such an honored guest, Huang Min wished he could make the bed and fold the quilt himself.

It is true that she is a descendant of the declining nobles, but because of the decline, they are always looking forward to and looking forward to the reappearance of the former glory.

Huang Min has not only inherited the nobility and arrogance of her ancestors, but also looks forward to some miracle that will allow her to experience the glory of her ancestors again.

Although her husband Hui Donglai is also good, he has become the actual head of the generation of Huijiameng Paris Western Restaurant, and the two grown-up daughters are quite up-to-date and very capable, but the restaurant's operation is also struggling and can barely maintain With the expenses of the family, it is still very unrealistic to realize her dream and restore the glory of the past.

A decision made by the board of directors to test the waters suddenly changed everything. It took only a short year for earth-shaking changes to occur. This made Huang Min see the dawn of realizing her dream, and what brought her hope was This little friend of the second daughter Xiaoting, Zhou Tingdong.

She decided to talk to the young man herself.

As soon as she opened the door of her bedroom, she saw the little nanny running up from downstairs in a hurry. Seeing her, she hurriedly bowed to her.

Huang Min frowned, and asked, "Xiao Lan, what are you doing in such a panic?"

Xiaolan hurriedly replied respectfully: "Madam, it is the old man who asked Mr. Zhou to go over. I was afraid that Mr. Zhou would fall asleep, so I left in a hurry. Please forgive me, madam."

Huang Min nodded, looked at his watch again, and at exactly [-]:[-], he said to the babysitter: "Go, Xiaolan, please pay attention to me, if the conversation between the old man and Mr. Zhou is at ten If it ends before [-]:[-], tell Mr. Zhou that I have something to talk to him, and ask him to wait for me in the room, and then you can inform me."

Xiaolan agreed, turned around and left.

When Tingdong went to the old man's room, the three sisters also went back to their rooms, because Xiaolan sent a message: the old man only saw Mr. Zhou, and the others can rest.

The old man's room is very spacious. From the layout, it can be seen that there are three suites connected. The outermost one is the living room, the next one should be the study room, and the innermost one is the bedroom.

The old man received Tingdong in the study room, which was only half the size of the living room and only had two sofas.

Such a small space gives people the feeling that it is more private. Obviously, the conversation here is more important than in the living room.

Xiaolan only took Tingdong to the living room and told him that the old man was waiting in the front study.

Before Ting Dong knocked on the door, a slightly old voice came over: "Please come in, young man, the door is unlocked."

The old man was already waiting on the sofa, and stretched out his hand to invite Ting Dong to sit on the sofa on the other side. Two cups of hot tea were already placed on the coffee table. Obviously, it was not made by Xiaolan, let alone by the old man himself. , so who is it?

Tingdong bowed and sat down, and glanced at the door in the direction of the bedroom. Obviously, there was another person behind that, it should be Xiaoting's grandma, but it was not her own grandma, but his grandfather's third wife, Xiaoting His grandma passed away long ago.

Tingdong suddenly realized that the old man's wife was only 65 years old this year, and she also had a son and a daughter. The son gave birth to a son and a daughter, both of whom were minors. The son was 15 years old, and the daughter was only 13. age.

This is the youngest grandson of the old man.

The old man took a sip of his tea and said with a smile, "Son, I'm really sorry that I invited you here so late and affected your rest!"

Tingdong shook his head and said, "You are being polite, old man. Grandpa called me over so late, he must have something very important to tell the younger generation, and the younger generation will listen attentively."

The old man nodded and said, "It is true that I have something very important to ask, rather than me explaining to you?"

After a pause, the old man went on to say: "The old man likes to talk straight. Since you are Xiao Ting's friend, I won't treat you as an outsider. I invite you to come here. I want to ask you what you think about the development of Dream Paris. , and please do not hesitate to teach me for the sake of your granddaughter."

Tingdong smiled and shook his head, and said, "I don't dare to teach you. Since grandpa regards Tingdong as one of his own, Tingdong will no longer treat himself as an outsider. As a junior, he should communicate with grandpa what he can think of. Right, grandpa please consider.

"With grandpa's wisdom and decades of experience, of course he can see farther than the younger generation. It's just that grandpa is in it, and some things are not as clear as they can be seen from another angle."

The old man smiled heartily: "Haha! Son, don't put gold on my old man's face. When it comes to the traditional etiquette and craftsmanship of western food, the old man has not taken anyone seriously.

"However, from a business point of view, not only the old man, but also Donglai, Xiaoting and Xiaowan, and even the entire Hui family together, can't withstand the event of you alone. I understand that what Tinger said The achievement she has achieved is because she met a friend like you, otherwise she would not be much better than Wan'er.

"So, my old man is really asking for advice with an open mind. The brand of Dream Paris has existed for 60 years, and it can be regarded as a time-honored brand in Spring City. If it cannot develop and grow in time, it will soon be overwhelmed by foreign western restaurants. There are many, so I am distraught.

"With the intelligence of Xiaowan and Xiaoting, it is not a problem to settle down. However, this Dream Paris has been devoted to my whole life. How can I bear to watch it decline like this? So please help me feel the pulse and see Where is the way out for Meng Paris?

"I can tell you the truth. Although our Hui family has a large population, this cannot affect the development of Dream Paris. I have only one purpose, and that is the survival and development of Dream Paris. You are only considering it from this perspective. , don’t have to consider our family’s personnel arrangements, how to do what is beneficial.”

Ting Dong smiled: "Grandpa, I understand what you mean, old man, you want me to stand in your position, level the bowl of water, and then think about the future of Meng Paris.

"Indeed, your idea is correct. If you want to consider the development of Dream Paris, you must choose an angle. An objective and fair angle is the best. However, I am a friend of Sister Ting. I am afraid that my suggestions will always be more or less Or at least consider it from her point of view, if there is any inconsideration, please forgive me."

The old man nodded, with a reassuring expression on his face. Tingdong understood why the old man had such a cautious expression when he was observing him when he just walked into the hall. He must be afraid that he would rob their Hui family's property.

No matter who it is, there will be a little fear when facing a smart person who can determine his own future and destiny. Then, the old man at this moment should not only hope to get his own help to develop Dream Paris, but also fear that he will become a friend because of more contacts. Dreaming of Paris creates a coveted heart.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, he is afraid that Ting Dong will take a different stand from him.For example, his own ultimate goal is to leave Meng Paris to his little grandson instead of the three granddaughters, so helping Xiaoting expand his strength may conflict with his fundamental interests.

These may become the old man's concerns. Tingdong is now Xiaoting's man, and he can only consider the problem from the perspective of Xiaoting and her parents and sisters. In fact, for the long-term development of Meng Paris, he can only so consider.

Tingdong decided to test out the old man's fundamental thoughts.

He took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "The younger generation basically has so many ideas, and it has been verified in Jiangcheng that it is feasible. With strong working ability, it shouldn't be a problem to transplant Jiangcheng's experience to Chuncheng, right?

"With Spring City's status as the provincial capital and a population three times greater than that of Jiang City, the development of Spring City's headquarters in Paris will not only be twice or three times that of Jiang City."

In this sentence, Tingdong expressed three meanings. One is that the board of directors of Dream Paris is united under the auspices of the old man;

Among them, the first and second items are prerequisites and facts, and the third item is a possibility.At the same time, Tingdong also indirectly complimented the old man's leadership. Under his leadership, the board of directors worked as one.

Through the observation of the dinner just now and a simple board of directors, it is not difficult for Ting Dong to come to this conclusion.

However, the old man frowned slightly. Apart from the compliment, he also heard the reminder in Tingdong's words. Tingdong's overtones:

The board of directors is united, but the premise is that under your leadership, you are highly respected, and you are the father and grandfather of other directors. Of course, there is nothing wrong with you in charge of the board of directors. However, if one day you are gone, the board of directors will still be united like this what?

If it can't be done, will there be more than double and triple the development of Jiangcheng as mentioned below?Even if such a good situation occurs, how long can it last?

This sentence is actually Ting Dong's first suggestion to him: the smooth transfer of the power of the board of directors, that is, to make arrangements for the old man after a hundred years, will be a prerequisite for the long-term prosperity of Dream Paris.

If the arrangement is not good, no matter how good the layout is today, it may disappear after the old man leaves.

The old man's gaze at Tingdong changed from sharp to soft and serious.

He sighed, and suddenly cupped his hands at Ting Dong, saying: "The old man has been taught, son, you are really not simple!"

Ting Dong hurriedly got up in panic and bowed to return the salute, joking, how could he, a teenager, bear the salute of an 80-year-old man?
