Chapter 87: Beat your brother as early as possible
95, end of November.
Su Mingzhe's company's business license, food processing license, tax registration certificate and other procedures were finally completed.
Su Mingzhe used the account of his new company to transfer a total of 300,000 yuan in labor fees to Na Jie's Jiangbei Culture Media Company.
This included the various errand fees that Sister Na had paid to Su Mingzhe in the past half month, the largest of which, more than 200,000 yuan, was for introducing Mr. Ming to sell the Yuan celadon.
Brothers, settle accounts.
Once the accounts are done well, future business can start well.
After receiving the money, Sister Na generously forgave Su Mingzhe for molesting her before.
After resigning from the job arranged by the county, Lu Youguang rushed back without wasting a single day.
At this time, the company had just renovated two rooms in the first-floor office building it rented in the High-tech Zone.
Lu Youguang chose one as his general manager's office and started to get busy.
Su Mingzhe had been troubled by the problem of custom-made machinery, and Lu Youguang advised him not to worry.
Then Lu Youguang made a phone call and arranged to meet the other party. After hanging up the phone, he introduced Su Mingzhe:
"Boss, this guy is called Meng Zhiyuan. He also started out as a salesperson. We met on the train. He is now the sales manager of a machinery factory in the High-tech Zone. He is very decisive in his work. It should be no problem to ask him to help with this matter."
"Meng Zhiyuan?"
This name sounds familiar.
Su Mingzhe thought for a while before he suddenly remembered that this Meng Zhiyuan was the Old Meng in “All Is Well”, and the future master of his younger sister Su Mingyu.
Half an hour later, Su Mingzhe and Lu Youguang arrived at the machinery factory and met Lao Meng.
Sure enough it was him.
At this time, Lao Meng was still very young, looking to be in his early twenties, a spirited young man.
"Director Lu, long time no see."
Lao Meng was standing at the gate of the machinery factory, waiting for the two of them. As soon as they met, he walked towards Lu Youguang.
Lu Youguang quickly stepped aside, letting Su Mingzhe next to him pass, and introduced him, "Manager Meng, this is Mr. Su from our Tianlong Foods."
Meng Zhiyuan heard that he had made a mistake in priorities, and hurried to make amends, greeting Su Mingzhe again:
"It's Boss Su. Sorry, nice to meet you."
"Manager Meng, you are so polite. I hope you can take care of me in the future."
Su Mingzhe is not the kind of person who would get upset over trivial matters.
The three of them chatted as they, led by Meng Zhiyuan, walked towards the reception room of their office building.
With Lu Youguang's introduction, Meng Zhiyuan learned that Lu Youguang had found another job and was now the general manager of a newly established private food company.
Now, Lu Youguang and Su Mingzhe came here to customize machines for the new company.
Because the company was just starting out, the number of customized machines was small, only two.
After these two customized machines have been used for a period of time, we will determine the pros and cons of their functions and then make changes and improvements.
In theory, this is a small job.
The large machinery factory where Meng Zhiyuan works is unwilling to accept such orders.
However, Meng Zhiyuan was indeed decisive. Without any hesitation, he went to find the workshop master to discuss the specific data and price of the customized machinery.
After some communication, the workshop master nodded and said that there was no problem in customizing this kind of machine.
Meng Zhiyuan did not ask for an exorbitant price, but instead asked for a moderate price, deciding on two thousand five hundred yuan for each machine.
If the quantity increases in the future, we can discuss discounts.
This price is four or five hundred yuan more expensive than asking someone to customize it on the street.
However, such large machinery factories can arrange for people to come to your site to provide repair or replacement services.
The concept of "Three Guarantees" was a slogan put forward by various manufacturing industries in the early 1980s.
Later, the "Three Guarantees" policy became popular and the country also improved relevant laws.
At the beginning of this year, the state issued clear "three guarantees" regulations.
After both parties signed the contract, Su Mingzhe quickly expressed his gratitude and wanted to invite Meng Zhiyuan and the workshop master to have a quick lunch together at noon.
Meng Zhiyuan did not refuse and took the workshop master to a restaurant outside to have dinner together, thus establishing a friendship.
It has to be said that Meng Zhiyuan is only in his early twenties, but he speaks and acts with grace, and his personal charm is refreshing.
Su Mingzhe felt that he really needed to learn this kind of temperament.
In the afternoon, Lu Youguang continued to be busy recruiting employees and setting up the company structure.
Su Mingzhe had nothing to do, so he went to the nearby Gusu University campus and posted a job notice.
At this time, college students are truly the chosen ones of heaven. When they walk, they are full of youthfulness.
When Su Mingzhe posted the recruitment notice, many people gathered around him and asked questions.
Su Mingzhe did not get bored and explained one by one.
These college students may very well become your employees in the future, so you should cherish them.
After visiting several universities near Gusu city, the sun was about to set.
In winter, the days are long and the nights are short, and it starts to get dark after five o'clock.
Su Mingzhe took a taxi home near the campus.
I got off the bus at the entrance of Tongdeli Hutong.
Before he even reached the house, he heard Su Mingyu's slightly stubborn cry, mixed with Su Mingcheng's giggling laughter, which made Su Mingzhe suddenly feel an inexplicable anger in his heart.
"Su Mingcheng, you bullied my little sister again!"
"Ah, brother—"
Su Mingcheng was so frightened when he saw Su Mingzhe who seemed to have fallen from the sky.
Recently, Su Mingzhe has been busy preparing for the company's affairs and has not paid enough attention to his family.
Su Mingcheng is such a cocky kid. Relying on Zhao Meilan's favor, he has become a little bully at home.
"You still know that I'm the eldest brother!" Su Mingzhe snorted coldly, picked up the broom in the yard, and walked towards Su Mingcheng. His tall figure pressed directly on Su Mingcheng's face, causing beads of sweat to appear on it.
Su Mingcheng's uncontrollable fear made him look panicked, and he couldn't help but beg for mercy: "Brother, I, I was wrong! Forgive me."
Su Mingzhe did not expect that he could put such pressure on Su Mingcheng. He could not help but frown and comforted him:
"Don't be afraid, it's just a beating. As the saying goes, if you make a mistake, you must admit it, and if you are beaten, you must stand at attention. After this beating, just remember not to bully my little sister in the future."
After saying that, Su Mingzhe raised the broom in his hand and started beating with a crackling sound, and it was over quickly.
Su Mingben wanted to be stubborn and not cry, but his butt hurt so much that he couldn't hold back his tears.
When Su Mingyu saw that her eldest brother stood up for her and beat her second brother so hard that he screamed in pain, she suddenly burst into laughter, as if she had forgotten how many punches she had received from her second brother just now.
Su Mingzhe beat up his brother, then called the two into the house and asked, "Mingyu, how did your second brother bully you just now?"
Su Mingyu wiped away the traces of tears on her face, and said with a little anger in her tone:
"Brother, my parents didn't have time to come back to cook, so they left two dollars for me and my second brother for food expenses. My second brother took the two dollars and refused to give it to me. When I asked him for more, he beat me."
Su Mingcheng stood aside and did not dare to refute, but his face showed some disapproval. After listening, he could not help but mutter:
"Su Mingyu has plenty of pocket money, so she doesn't need this dollar."
"My little sister doesn't need money, but you do?"
Su Mingzhe didn't expect that this kid would dare to grumble, so he raised his hand and wanted to beat him up again.
It’s better to beat your brother as early as possible.
It will be difficult to beat them when they grow up.
Su Mingcheng, however, was a meticulous guy. Seeing that he was going to be beaten again for just saying one word, he immediately put on a sad face and promised that he would never bully his sister again.
Su Mingzhe then gave up and asked the two to wash their faces quickly and do their homework, while he cooked for the family.
After Su Daqiang resumed his high school teaching position, it was not convenient for him to skip class and go home to cook after school in the afternoon because the course was very tight.
Due to the nature of Zhao Meilan's work, as the weather gets colder and the number of patients visiting the hospital increases, her working hours become unstable.
The dinner problem of Su Mingcheng and Su Mingyu does need to be resolved.
Su Mingzhe quickly prepared four dishes and a soup, and also steamed a pot of rice using the newly bought electric rice cooker at home.
Su Mingcheng is a heartless guy. He ate two big bowls of rice in one breath.
Su Mingyu was much quieter. After eating a bowl of rice, she went to do her homework.
At around seven o'clock, Zhao Meilan came back from get off work.
Su Mingzhe wanted to heat up the food and let Zhao Meilan eat first.
However, Zhao Meilan said that it was not necessary and she would wait for Su Daqiang to come back to eat together.
It was past nine o'clock when Su Daqiang came back. When he saw his wife waiting for him to have dinner together, his face was full of wrinkles due to smiling.
Sure enough, Su Daqiang is Zhao Meilan's bootlicker. He feels very happy when he gets a little bit of good response from her.
Seeing that nothing happened at home, Su Mingzhe went back to Li Ansheng's house.
During the time he was away from school, Li Ansheng's learning progress was obviously slowed down, which was not a good sign.
After school, Li Ansheng didn't see Su Mingzhe coming to pick him up, so he sneaked back home. He was watching TV at home to kill time. When he heard the door open and saw Su Mingzhe, he immediately ran over to him dependently.
"Husband, MUA~"
"Okay, why are you like a sloth?"
Su Mingzhe carried his thin girlfriend into the living room and sat down. With a doting look in his eyes, he reached out and stroked his girlfriend's little head.
The two people looked at each other tenderly, and then their lips moved, and a warm atmosphere slowly enveloped them.
The commercials broadcast on television provided cover for the two men.
Just as their body temperatures were slowly rising, the sound of someone unlocking the door startled them both.
Su Mingzhe quickly pried open the hands that were tightly hugging his neck, pushed his girlfriend away, and whispered:
"Ansheng, maybe Aunt Chen is back."
Li Ansheng was still a little confused. After calming down, he looked up at the door and saw his biological mother Chen Xiaofang pushing open the door and coming in with a suitcase.
"Mom, why are you back so late?"
Li Ansheng quickly got down from the sofa and went to greet him.
This time, Chen Xiaofang was gone for half a month, and she was on a business trip to Jiaopenji, which made Li Ansheng very worried.
This kind of worry is not groundless.
A lot of big things happened to Jiaoben Chicken this year.
The gas incident caused panic around the world.
In addition, this year marks the 50th anniversary of victory, and the public sentiment in both countries is somewhat confrontational.
Li Ansheng was relieved when he saw Chen Xiaofang return safely.
Chen Xiaofang also enjoyed her daughter's reliance on her. After hugging her daughter for a while, she reluctantly pushed her away and replied with a smile:
"My mother took a flight in the morning and arrived in Shanghai at noon. She had a meeting with her colleagues in Shanghai, had a meal, and then rushed back."
Just come back.
Su Mingzhe stood aside, quietly waiting for the mother and daughter to calm down, then went to the kitchen to make a pot of brown sugar ginger tea to drive away the cold and warm Chen Xiaofang's stomach.
Every time Chen Xiaofang came back from a business trip, she would buy various gifts for her daughter.
When she was a child, Li Ansheng was not interested in these gifts. She would rather steal or rob than accept them.
But in recent years, under the guidance of Su Mingzhe, Li Ansheng gradually learned how to express his thoughts and is no longer as extreme as he was when he was in elementary school.
"Mingzhe, this is the windbreaker I bought for you. Try it on and see if it fits you."
"And mine?"
Su Mingzhe was a little surprised. He looked at the gifts Chen Xiaofang brought back in her suitcase. Except for the ones for Li Ansheng, some were for himself.
This mother-in-law is really thoughtful.
