Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

"Xiao Kun."

"You're back, my wife." Seeing Xu Jingping coming back, Yang Yukun put down the book in his hand: "Jingtian just called back and said that she's on summer vacation there, and will take a flight to the capital at around 6 o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

"It's May now, and Jingtian is indeed having her summer vacation. Will she come back this summer?"

During last year's summer vacation, Jingtian said she had found an internship at a company in Boston.

Xu Jingping thought that this girl would still not come back during the summer vacation this year.

"He said he missed us after not coming back for so long and wanted to come back and visit us."

"Then I'll pick her up at the airport tomorrow afternoon."

"She said she was with a few friends. Including her, there were 12 of them. One car couldn't fit them all, so we had to drive two cars."

"I'll call Xiaolan up."

"Then I will prepare dinner at home and invite Jingtian's classmates to come home for dinner."

"Row."

After having lunch at home, Xu Jingping went to Zhiweilou Catering Company.

With nothing to do, Yang Yukun rode his bike out and staggered to Zhiwei Wine Company, where he stayed for an hour.

The plan to open 1,000 direct-operated stores, which was originally scheduled to be completed in 1995, was completed as early as last year, and the overall scale of Zhiwei Wine Company has also expanded a lot.

Today, there are Zhiwei Wine direct-operated stores in major cities across the country.

After the 1,000-store plan was completed, the company discussed whether to launch a second 1,000-store plan to further expand the company's directly-operated stores to all counties.

After careful consideration, Yang Yukun decided not to proceed with the second 1,000-store plan and to take it slow for now.

As to whether the second 1,000-store plan will be launched in the future, it depends on the situation.

The Eight Immortals Drunk, Hanhai Qiongjiang and Jieyuhua produced by Zhiwei Wine Company are very expensive, and their selling prices are twice as expensive as Moutai. There is not much point in continuing to expand the direct store channel. One thousand direct stores are enough.

Moreover, Zhiwei Wine Company’s sales channels are not limited to directly-operated stores, but also directly supply to hotels such as Zhiweilou Restaurant.

At the beginning, the three wines produced by Zhiwei Wine Company, namely Baxianzui, Hanhai Qiongjiang and Jieyuhua, were only directly supplied to Zhiweilou Restaurant. Later, Huilou Restaurant, Jubanxian Restaurant, Xueru Restaurant, Jinchangsheng Restaurant, Chabalou Restaurant, Eryuehua Hotel, Diaoyu Pavilion, Didu Hotel, etc., also joined the supply and marketing system of Zhiwei Wine Company.

The amount directly supplied to hotels and restaurants such as Zhiweilou Restaurant is almost equal to the sales volume of the company's thousands of directly-operated stores.

Although the direct supply to major hotels and restaurants is at factory price and the profit cannot be compared with that of directly-operated stores, it is impossible to sell such a large amount of wine relying solely on directly-operated stores.

Another thing is to go back to the building and wait for the hotel or restaurant to get wine from Zhiwei Wine Company. This is something that I can't refuse and it is impossible to refuse.

After leaving Zhiwei Wine Company, Yang Yukun rode his bicycle to the Kunping Charity Foundation on Wenjin Street.

The foundation's general office, finance, review and administration are all located on Wenjin Street.

"Welcome Mr. Yang to come and give us guidance." When Yang Wen heard from his assistant that Yang Yukun had arrived, he hurried out of the office to greet him.

"I saw the news about the Kunping academic competition in the newspaper. Mr. Yang, this is a great thing to do."

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Yang. Please have some tea."

"How are the other groups progressing?"

"I was planning to go to the front building to find you after get off work this afternoon to report to you on the status of each group in our foundation."

Since the Kunping Charity Foundation officially started operation, the work of each group has been progressing in an orderly manner.

In addition to the Spring Sprout, Spring Breeze and Spring Bud action teams that require on-site visits to every household in each school, the progress of the Khun Phaen Scholarship, Khun Phaen Award and Khun Phaen Subject Competition is slightly faster.

Among them, the Kun Ping Academic Competition is scheduled to be held from June 1st to August 1st every year. There is less than a month left before the first Kun Ping Academic Competition.

The preliminary examination questions for each subject competition have been released. After the registration for the preliminary round is closed, the Foundation will print the preliminary examination papers based on the number of applicants.

The entire process will be recorded in audio and video, and the test papers will be escorted to each competition point by a dedicated person to ensure that the test questions will not be leaked before the competition begins.

As for the selection of the Kun Ping Award, it is currently underway. The award ceremony is scheduled for the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, which means ascending to the highest point.

"Mr. Yang, I have another suggestion." Yang Wen said after thinking for a while.

"What suggestions do you have? Just tell me directly." Seeing Yang Wen hesitated to speak, Yang Yukun smiled and said, "I am not a cannibal. You are the general manager of the foundation. If you have any suggestions, just tell me."

"That's right, Mr. Yang. For the selection of the Kunping Award, I have come into contact with many top experts in related industries. It is not easy to come up with scientific research and technology results. It often takes several years or even more than ten years to hone a sword.

Previously, the selection criteria for our Kunping Award were every two years, and the selection objects were scientific research achievements in the past two years.

I suggest that the selection period be changed from two years to five years, and the selection time range can also be appropriately relaxed.

For example, those national classified projects that we cannot access, after these scientific research projects are released, should also be included in the selection criteria of our Kunping Award. "

The selection of the Kunping Award is personally supervised by Yang Wen.

He felt that the original selection range of the Kunping Prize was not appropriate. It was even more difficult for top scientific research projects to produce results in two years, and suggested that the selection period be changed from two years to five years. It was also not appropriate to set the selection time range within two years, and this time range should be relaxed.

He planned to go to Qianmenlouzi to find Yang Yukun after get off work today, with the main purpose of giving Yang Yukun suggestions in this regard.

Since Yang Yukun came to the foundation today, after reporting the situation of each group, Yang Wen went on to express his thoughts.

"Boss Yang, your suggestion is very good. I didn't consider it comprehensively before. So I'll follow your suggestion and change the Kunping Award to every five years."

"Thank you, Director Yang."

"I should be thanking you. Remember, you are the general manager of the Kunping Charity Foundation. Feel free to give me any reasonable suggestions."

Yang Yukun had indeed not considered the selection criteria for the Kunping Prize comprehensively before.

Yang Wen’s suggestion is very good. The selection of the Kunping Award will be based on this standard in the future.

After staying at the Kunping Charity Foundation for a while, Yang Yukun rode his bicycle back home.

Xiao Zongzi, Pingping and Xiao Yumi will be going home from school soon, so it's time to prepare dinner.

"Dad, we are back!"

"Woof woof woof..."

"Hehe... Dad, what are we eating tonight?"

"Eat fish."

"Dad, isn't Mom back yet?"

Yang Yukun smiled and said, "Not yet. Why don't you give mom a call and ask her when she'll be back."

"Okay." Xiao Zongzi picked up his father's mobile phone and called his mother. After a while, Xiao Zongzi said, "Mom said she is on her way back and will be home soon."

"Dinner will be ready soon. We can eat when Mom comes back."

"smell good."

"Dad, let me tell you..."

Yang Yukun was cooking while listening to Xiao Zongzi, Pingping and Xiao Yumi chattering about what happened in kindergarten today.

"Mom is back." Seeing Xu Jingping walking in from outside, Yang Yukun said to the little ones.

"mom!"

Little Zongzi, Pingping and Little Yumi ran out of the kitchen to greet their mother.

"I'm back, daughter-in-law. Dinner is ready. Let's eat first."

"Xiao Zongzi, Pingping, Xiao Yumi, go wash your hands. Look how dirty they are."

"whee……."

Not long after dinner, Feifei and Mengmeng ran over to play with Xiaozongzi, Pingping and Xiaoymi, and Han Chunming and Su Meng followed them into the yard.

"Uncle Kun, Auntie, Sister Xiao Zongzi, Pingping, Little Corn, Black Panther."

"Xiaokun, Jingping."

"Brother Xiaowu, Sister Su Meng."

"Uncle, aunt, Feifei, Mengmeng."

"Little Zongzi, get a chair for your uncle and aunt."

"Okay, uncle, aunt, please sit down."

Xu Jingping said: "Sister Su Meng, when did you come back?"

"I came back this afternoon and brought you some local specialties from Yangcheng." Su Meng handed a package to Xu Jingping.

She went to Guangzhou for something some time ago and didn't come back until this afternoon.

Her Jin Changsheng Restaurant now has five stores in Guangzhou.

"Brother Xiaowu, Sister Su Meng, have some tea."

After washing the dishes and cleaning up the kitchen and dining room, Yang Yukun made a pot of tea and took it to the yard, where they drank tea and chatted under the crabapple tree.

After a while, Fan Xiaojun and Zhao Lili came over with their children, and then Mada Luo and Mu Linai also came.

Natalia came to return the borrowed car, and when she saw Madaro and Mulinai were there, she left without even a cup of tea. (End of this chapter)
