Metropolis: My Rising Life

Chapter 266 Don’t be fooled by money

While several people were chatting, dishes were served one after another.

Scallops and lotus leaf rice, stir-fried rice noodles with XO sauce, macaroon paste, stuffed fresh crab cover, red suckling pig with skin, braised top group wings…

A dish of home-cooked or hard-goods dishes were served on the table. On the whole, these dishes are not as exquisitely presented as the high-end Japanese or French dishes when viewed from the outside.

It even seems to have a feeling of eating at home, making people feel that such a meal is worth thousands per person.

But as soon as he picked up the chopsticks and picked up the dishes, Chen Yi immediately lit up, and gave a thumbs up to the chef who finished the dishes and came to the box.

“Chef Chen, you didn’t say this dish, it’s authentic! I don’t have any adjectives, just two words to describe it, it’s delicious!”

Chen Yi praised, the forty-something chef smiled on his face, and the chef was naturally happy to be praised so much.

Besides, Chen Yi looks like a wealthy second-generation, the kind of delicacy that eats all over the world. Such a person praises you, and it is more comfortable.

I have to say that Chinese food is delicious. Each major cuisine has its own characteristics. The only drawback is that the name of the Chinese food is good, but the sense of ceremony is slightly inferior.

This makes Chinese cuisine seem a bit unpretentious in other countries, which is quite regrettable.

“Then you just eat, call me if you have anything!”

Chef Chen came to the box and said hello to Yang Tiantian and Chen Yi, and then left, and several people continued to eat.

At this time, inspector Chen arrived, and the heroic inspector said as soon as he entered the door: “…You didn’t wait for me to eat, it tastes quite fragrant!”

This inspector does not recognize the birth, and is also generous and hearty.

After get off work, Chen Yuyan changed her inspection suit and put on casual clothes.

The white silk gown was draped over the body, showing a slim figure, the upper body was tight, a jacket was draped outside, and the lower body was a pair of long jeans with high heels.

The black high-heeled shoes showed the back of the instep, and the back of the instep was dressed with light shreds of meat. You can barely see the green veins. It seems that Chen Yuyan is not like a supervisor at all, but more like a white-collar woman, fashionable and fashionable. Capable.

Especially those thin legs, although they are hidden by jeans, they can also be seen as vigorous and slender, which makes people wonder what the beauty of this inspector Chen looks when he wears a skirt.

Because of work needs, Chen Yuyan’s face makeup is very light, but her facial features are exquisite, her eyebrows are embroidered like peaks, her nose is high, and her hair that is not long or short makes her look charming.

Chen Yi’s eyes lit up, but before he greeted him, Yu Jinyu just stood up and smiled: “…Sister Chen, sit here!”

After Chen Yuyan saw Yu Jinyu, she also walked over with a smile on her face.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

After all, they are all girls and they are easier to get along with.

Chen Yi mentioned to a bitch before that someone like Chen Yuyan can have a deep friendship. The more you get to know and communicate with this kind of higher class people, the more chances you have to upgrade your class.

The previous bitch didn’t have this thought at all, but followed Chen Yi with him. After being reminded by Chen Yi, she realized it.

By following Chen Yi, she herself has countless times more opportunities than ordinary people to contact people of higher strata. As long as you seize this opportunity, it is really simple to change your life.

How did those ladies and ladies come out? It’s not all kinds of interpersonal interactions.

After understanding this, there is no problem with the EQ of a bitch. Maybe at first he will be a little restrained and will habitually lower his status, but after chatting, he will become familiar.

Just like now, the bitch just got acquainted with Chen Yuyan in a few words.

Although the two girls are five or six years old, and their daily lives do not overlap, the women can always find their favorite topics in the shortest time.

“This restaurant is worthy of being the most famous Cantonese restaurant in Hong Kong. The taste is really well-deserved, but it is said that the owner behind it has ever been fighting and breaking up?”

Chen Yi searched for topics differently. He didn’t think too much about Chen Yuyan, but as his status was different, the people and things he met were different, and Chen Yi also changed.

He, who was not interested in socializing in the past, now knows that these are all necessary. No matter how strong you are, you have to understand the sophistication of humanity.

Therefore, when he sees people who are worth knowing and interacting with, he will try to get to know them, and he may be able to use them in the future, which gradually makes him feel like friends all over the world.

“This store was previously opened by Cui Lao. After Cui Lao passed away, it was handed over to his two sons to take care of it.”

At this time, Lawyer Wang took the topic of Chen Yi and started chatting with him. He also used this opportunity to test the specific content of hiring him that Chen Yi said before.

“At the beginning, Mr. Cui’s two sons were still very harmonious. The fifth elder brother was in charge of the accounting affairs and the seventh elder brother was in charge of the kitchen. The two worked together to make Fulinmen bigger.”

“…But then the two got into a dispute. Brother Fifth wanted to open a few more stores, thinking that this would be able to increase revenue. You know Shao Chen, even if it is Fulinmen, the most upscale and most famous store in Xiangjiang, the profit will be a year. Only tens of millions.”

“Look at the Haidilao chain restaurant. It has a net profit of 2 billion a year. Who wouldn’t be greedy! But Brother Qi thinks that Fulinmen is doing a signboard. The quality of this restaurant will inevitably decrease when it opens. It is not a fast food restaurant after all. Will self-smash the signs.”

“…The two went to court like this. At that time, I was still a young lawyer and I was fortunate enough to participate in it. In the end, the fifth brother was supported by our Hong Kong local consortium.”

“The consortium thinks that Fulinmen’s sign can make a lot of money. Even if the locals in Hong Kong don’t want Fulinmen to be trapped by capital, there is still no way. In the end, the fifth elder brother won and used the money to take the shares in the seventh elder brother’s hand and sweep him out.”

Attorney Wang sighed for a while. As a barrister, he has naturally seen a lot of worlds and he understands the terrible capital.

Even if it is such a century-old signature restaurant, it can be said to be the backbone of Xiangjiang Cantonese cuisine, but it seems so weak in front of capital.

But Chen Yi had a more unique perspective. He smiled and asked, “…what happened to that seventh brother in the end? Would you like to leave with the money like this?”

“…I don’t think anyone will be unmoved by money. Even if he wants to maintain quality, he still wants to pay for money. He is afraid that the quality will decrease, but his income will decrease!”

When Lawyer Wang heard this, he took a deep look at Chen Yi, and said with some admiration: “… Shao Chen, you are right. After Brother Seven exchanged shares for money, he still had that money with his reputation. , Opened another store, called Fuqi.”

“…This store is not only in Hong Kong, but also has branches in the mainland and Tokyo.”

Chen Yi burst into laughter after hearing this.

The Seventh brother had an attitude of asking for quality and not expanding, but after he got the money, his own shops blossomed everywhere. Maybe he did what he did before.

It can only be said that wealth is touching, and in front of capital, even brothers can smash the wall.

This made Chen Yi warn himself more, don’t be fooled by money, and be sober in money.

“Shao Chen, what about the hiring of me you said before?”

Attorney Wang asked cautiously at this time.

With a seven-figure salary a year, even a barrister can’t help but be tempted.

He, who just told a touching story about wealth, was also seduced by money.
