The Industrial Kingdom of the Great Age

Chapter 473 Meet Uncle Lin

Sealand Street, where the Sealand Department Store was founded.

At this time, Xilan Street is much more crowded than it was at the beginning, and it was still a hardware industrial street a year ago. If you continue to walk in, it is actually a hardware industrial area.

But now, the store here is not only the Sealand Department Store, there are several, and there are even some other stalls and shops.

On both sides of a main road outside Xilan Street, there are also shops of various colors. In just one year, the neighborhood has undergone earth-shaking changes.

And this is all because of the strong entry of the first store in the mainland more than a year ago.

Today, the first store in mainland China is not only in Guangzhou, but also in southern China, where you can see Sealand Department Store everywhere.

In fact, at the beginning, Zhao Ming didn't want his store to open so fast, but the country is developing too fast, everywhere is booming, people are rich, everywhere is developing, and everywhere is making progress.

He didn't insist anymore, so half a year ago, he gradually increased the pace of expanding the store, and it was also because of this that he was able to have a net worth of over ten million.

This is all due to the fact that he has opened more than 100 stores in various southern provinces. Although it is not the main reason, it is a big factor.

Although many branches were opened, and many were opened outside the province, Zhao Ming never visited them. He dispatched special personnel to take care of them and hired local people to manage them.

Now, he returned to Xilan Street again, full of emotion in his heart.

After getting out of the car, Zhao Ming wore sunglasses and dressed casually.It's still early, and it's not even working time. The store has to open early.And because it's not working time, and it's not the peak time of store flow, there are not many customers in the expanded store.

Walking around the store alone, Zhao Ming occasionally saw a clerk yawning and whispering, but when he saw him, he smiled and nodded.

In the past, these clerks would come forward to sell them, but then Zhao Ming implemented a new policy, allowing customers to look at them freely and buy whatever they want.Unless there is a new product, it will be sold at a special counter.

And Zhao Ming was wearing sunglasses, and those shop assistants were a little listless, so they didn't realize that their big boss was watching here.

But gradually, some shop assistants noticed Zhao Ming, felt familiar, and looked at him with a slight frown. Someone even pointed to Zhao Ming with a colleague, as if talking in a low voice.

Zhao Ming came in with a briefcase, which was bulging and contained Moutai liquor and some food.Therefore, the security guards paid the most attention to such a person, so along the way, there were security guards who pretended not to care and glanced at him.

Looking all the way, Zhao Ming came to the front desk. Here, he saw Uncle Lin sitting on a bench behind the counter, with a smile on his face, very energetic. He scanned the store and saw He just nodded and didn't recognize him for a while.

The old man's eyesight was bad, so he just regarded Zhao Ming as an ordinary boss, but he still rarely saw anyone wearing sunglasses, so he took a second look.

But just looking at it one more time, he could see something was wrong.

He stood up suddenly, his eyes widened, as if he wanted to see clearly.But Zhao Ming had already stepped over the guardrail, came to his side, opened his hands with a smile, and embraced him fiercely.

There is an aisle behind the front desk, but the place blocked by the guardrail on the other side is for employees to rest, and guests and other people are not allowed to enter.

When Zhao Ming stepped over the guardrail just now, the cashier lady at the front desk and the security guard who was watching were about to come over, but when they saw him hugging Uncle Lin, they all backed away.

It seems that he is an acquaintance of Uncle Lin.

"came back?"

"Well, I came back last night. I missed you very much this morning, so I came to see you."

"Haha, good, good."

Uncle Lin was so excited that he couldn't speak. He could only pat Zhao Ming on the shoulder and couldn't help laughing.

Everyone is puzzled, why is Manager Lin so excited?Could it be his long-lost son?
The salespersons in other stores had nothing to do, and they also came to watch the excitement.It was the first time they saw Uncle Lin so excited, who is that person?
"You're wearing sunglasses, I haven't recognized you yet." Uncle Lin laughed and pulled Zhao Ming to sit down.

Zhao Ming was also polite, and said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll pick him up and let my uncle see me better."

As he said that, Zhao Ming took off his sunglasses, and his familiar face immediately caught everyone's eyes, causing bursts of exclamations.

"My God, it's the boss."

"It's really the boss, the boss is back."

"I feel familiar just now, but I can't remember where I saw it. I didn't expect that Boss Zhao really came back."

"Wooooow, I thought the boss has opened so many branches that he doesn't remember where we are."

"No, even if the boss forgets our branch, he won't forget Manager Lin."

The employees all stepped forward excitedly, and the front desk lady also came forward to say hello when she saw that there were no guests coming.

The security guard of the store also came forward to say hello. Almost everyone in the store came to say hello to Zhao Ming, and those who couldn't leave their jobs also waved from a distance.

Zhao Ming also responded with a few words, and then the customers in the store also saw Zhao Ming. Some people were very plain and they didn't follow stars, but some people were very excited and came forward to shake hands with Zhao Ming and ask for warmth.

For this, Zhao Ming was very helpless, he came to reminisce with Uncle Lin, but now he is tired of being annoyed by other people.

In the end, he had no choice but to say hello, and then entered the lounge with Uncle Lin, and also asked someone to go to the store to bring a pack of peanuts, to go with the cooked food he bought, and drink directly in the morning.

"Uncle, try the Moutai in Xiaoqing's shop and see if it tastes the same as when Sister Wei got married?" Zhao Ming smiled and poured a glass of wine for Uncle Lin.

When Lin Wei'er got married back then, Zhao Mingdang was the wedding officiant. It was a miserable time. In order to give Lin Wei'er an unforgettable wedding, Uncle Lin even saved money for meals.

It was also because of this that Uncle Lin fired the manager of the factory back then. In short, at that time, his life was really miserable.Uncle Lin even felt desperate because of this, he didn't even have any drinks at the wedding.

Fortunately, Zhao Ming had already started to have money at that time, so he bought a lot of Moutai with the money and solved this problem.

"This one tastes better, haha..." Uncle Lin laughed loudly.

In fact, Uncle Lin has drunk a lot of wine recently, and Moutai has also drank a lot.The old man only has this little hobby. Now Zhao Ming pays him such a high salary, and he gets more than 1000 shares every month, which is enough to support him to drink every day.

But now that Zhao Ming is pouring wine for him, he naturally wants to drink more, and he also thinks it is very delicious.

"It's delicious. Today's wine is very delicious." Uncle Lin laughed, and his laughter even spread outside the lounge.

At this time, there are more and more people in the store. It is already the working time, and it is the morning working time. Generally, there are very few people at this time.However, there are so many people today.

After someone left just now, just passed a word, Zhao Ming came back, and he was in the lounge of this store.

Once spread to ten, ten to hundreds, it attracted a lot of people at once.

After these people came in, they were looking at it casually. No matter whether they needed something or not, they would pick it up and have a look. However, the lounge they looked at most was the lounge.

The sound insulation inside is actually very good, but Uncle Lin was so happy that he laughed loudly, and the laughter could be faintly heard outside.

After two hours, Zhao Ming came out of the lounge. He actually had a drink, not because he was too drunk, but because he had to drive later.

As for Uncle Lin, he basically finished the two bottles of wine, his face was a little drunk, and his mouth was full of grease.

He was so happy today that he forgot the rules he set himself. He was not allowed to drink alcohol during working hours. Besides, he just started working, that is, he had breakfast not long ago.

But even so, he still drank with Zhao Ming, mainly because he was too happy.

During the period, Lin Wei'er came once, and seeing Uncle Lin and Zhao Ming drinking happily, she just said hello and left.

"Uncle, I'm leaving."

"Okay, come back another day, no, come back when you have time, you have more things to do, so come back when you have time."

Uncle Lin originally wanted Zhao Ming to come more, preferably every day, but he thought that Zhao Ming was a busy person and had so many things to do, and they were all very important.It seems that there is something urgent today, and I just missed him when I came to see him.

Zhao Ming shook his head with a smile, and he still held Uncle Lin's hand when he came out. In just over a year, the old man looked even older.But the mentality is much younger.

As soon as he came out, Zhao Ming was spotted, and the crowd immediately surrounded him.

He is like a big star now, and many stars in Shenzhen are not as famous as him.Some people even say that he is more famous than Teresa Teng.

In fact, as an engineer, being able to mix to Zhao Ming's level is really remarkable.As for someone as famous as him, I have never seen one before.

"Mr. Zhao, is it really you?"

"Mr. Zhao, won't you leave when you come back this time?"

"Can you tell me, what are you doing when you come back? Are you going to start another business? Can you tell me something?"

"Ms. Zhao, my mother likes you very much, my father also likes you very much, and my whole family likes you very much."

These people are so enthusiastic, if the staff didn't know that they would still be able to see Zhao Ming often in the future, they might come over to say hello just as desperately.

Zhao Ming was also happy, and greeted them one by one. It took half an hour to finally get out, but when he got out to the gate, he found that there was also a lot of people blocking the gate.

Then it took another half an hour, but he was able to leave at noon, and even at noon, when it was time to get off work, more people rushed over when they heard that he had returned to Sealand Street.
