Go back to 1980 and enjoy it

Nanning.

Since his fiancée Fan Yuemei took over the home appliance store, Deng Yunhua has completely become a hands-off shopkeeper, eating, drinking and having fun every day, and living a life of ease.

Recently, Deng Yunhua fell in love with playing billiards and often went to the billiards hall of his two brothers-in-law to play billiards.

Today, after lunch, Deng Yunhua, who had nothing to do, came to his brother-in-law's billiards hall again.

"Brother-in-law, you're here!" Fan Yueqiang came up to greet him.

Deng Yunhua pointed to one of the pool tables that was crowded with people and asked, "Are there any experts here today?"

Fan Yueqiang shook his head and whispered: "It's not a master, it's someone gambling. Brother-in-law, do you want to go over and take a look?"

Deng Yunhua understood clearly after hearing this. Generally speaking, there are only two situations where playing billiards can attract so many people to watch:

One is the one with awesome billiards skills. Watching those real masters play billiards is really a great enjoyment for billiards enthusiasts.

Another way is to gamble money by playing billiards, especially those where the bets are slightly larger, or if bystanders also follow the bets, which will attract crowds of people to watch.

However, gambling on billiards is really not very eye-catching among the various types of gambling. At best, it is just a small gamble for fun, and few people will take advantage of it.

Because this thing is based on skill, not luck. If you can't beat someone, you can't win. If you don't accept it, you have to accept it.

Of course, there are also masters who deliberately put out fishing lines, but they can only win a small amount of money, and it is difficult to win a large amount of money, unless they really meet a rich 250, which is another story.

Therefore, since the birth of billiard halls in our country, it is rare to see police stations going to billiard halls to catch gamblers. If they can even catch these people, there will be no need to open a huge number of mahjong parlors all over the country. Who doesn’t know how to come to a mahjong parlor? Everyone who plays mahjong gambles money, right?

Deng Yunhua picked up a billiard cue and said, "I won't watch anymore. You can play a few rounds with me!"

Fan Yueqiang responded and walked over to get a billiard cue.

Playing billiards is very much about talent. People with good talent will become amateur masters after a little practice, while people with poor talent will only have average skills no matter how hard they practice.

Deng Yunhua and Fan Yueqiang's talents can be considered good or bad, and they are evenly matched when playing. One moment you win a game, and another moment I win a game. The fight is still very interesting.

All competitive things have to be evenly matched to be fun. If it is just about abusing food, then unless it is gambling, both the loser and the winner will find it meaningless.

After playing seven or eight games in a row, Deng Yunhua was so happy that he put down his billiard cue and said, "Okay, that's it for today!"

Fan Yueqiang flattered: "Brother-in-law, you are really good. I practice here every day and I can't beat you."

"Okay, don't put your hat on me, I can't beat you."

At this point, Deng Yunhua saw that there were still so many people surrounding him. It was obvious that this contest was not over yet. He couldn't help but remind him: "Yue Qiang, remember, don't get involved in this kind of thing. I'll follow you later." Let me tell you, if there is a guest who needs an opponent, you can go out and play with the guest, but you can’t bet money.”

Fan Yueqiang nodded and said: "Brother-in-law, I know. My sister also told us about this problem. When we play with guests, the table fee is calculated for each game. If the customer wins, he does not need to pay the table fee. If he loses, he will pay the table fee. Fee is equivalent to accompanying them to practice ball.

We do not participate in real gambling. "

"That's good, okay, I'll go back first!"

"Okay, brother-in-law."

…

In the past two months, Master Kong instant noodles and Uni-President instant noodles have been at loggerheads.

This battle was undoubtedly started by Uni-President Instant Noodles. In the past few years, Master Kong has dominated the domestic instant noodle market, occupying a huge market share, and no other instant noodle brands can compete with it.

As Taiwan's leader in instant noodles, Uni-President also tried innovation after entering the mainland market. Unfortunately, their innovations could not shake the market that Master Kong had cultivated for many years. They could only take a deviant approach and began to imitate and plagiarize Master Kong's various flavors of instant noodles. Sale at reduced price.

Naturally, Master Kong would not watch helplessly. He directly opened the limited-time benefits and gave away ham sausages to fight, which actually achieved good results.

However, Uni-President Instant Noodles was also ruthless and chose to cut prices again. Even if it did not make money, it had to build its own brand first.

According to the original plan, Master Kong planned to give away two hams to offset the price reduction of Uni-President. However, seeing the unification coming fiercely, Master Kong, who is also a big business, is not used to it and wants to start a price war, right?

Then fight, who is afraid of whom?

As a result, Master Kong's instant noodles also cut prices across the board and held a limited-time promotion, directly reducing it to the same price as Uni-President instant noodles, and also gave away a piece of ham sausage.

If sold at this price, the profits of Master Kong's instant noodles will become very thin.

Fortunately, Master Kong has been operating in China for many years and has achieved the ultimate in cost reduction. Therefore, although the sales price is low, after calculation, it is still a little profit. If it were replaced by Uni-President, which had just arrived, it would definitely lose money in this way. .

Because Uni-President’s size in China is far from comparable to Master Kong’s.

And this is also true. Master Kang's move directly silenced Uni-President.

If ham is given away as a gift, then Uni-President will definitely lose money. Just losing some money is nothing. It can be regarded as using the money for advertising, but the key is that losing money may not necessarily make it better than Master Kong.

After all, to domestic customers, what is unification? I’ve never heard of it, but Master Kong is a famous brand.

At the same price, most customers would naturally choose Master Kong over Uni-President.

…

While Tongyi remained silent, July also came to an end and the festive August ushered in.

On the second day of August, the entire Wuyue Square was hung with red wedding cloths, and bright red 囍 characters were plastered everywhere, letting people know at a glance that someone was having a wedding banquet.

At ten o'clock in the morning, a dozen or so festively decorated wedding cars brought back the beautiful bride Fan Yuemei, along with the woman's wedding guests.

These wedding guests are all relatively close relatives and friends of the Fan family.

Among these relatives and friends, the one with the best financial situation is Fan Yuemei's aunt Qin Fengli. She married in Liuzhou and her family is engaged in breeding. It is said that she can earn tens of thousands a year, which is considered a great achievement among many relatives.

The relationship between Qin Fengzhen and her sister Qin Fengli is okay, but the two sisters are not in the same city. They only interact with each other when big events like marriage happen, and they usually don't see each other more than once a year.

This time, I heard that my niece was married to a super rich man, so all five members of Qin Fengli's family came.

After getting off the car, looking at the very festively decorated Wuyue Square in front of them, Qin Fengli's family secretly marveled. They had heard last night that this Wuyue Square also belonged to their nephew and son-in-law's home.

Of course, compared with an entire snack street, this Wuyue Plaza is nothing.

Soon, Qin Fengli's family and other wedding guests were led up to the fifth floor of Wuyue Plaza by the man's pick-up staff.

After entering the super mansion on the fifth floor, the wedding guests on the woman's side were all stunned.

“Oh my God, this house is so big and beautiful!”

"Even the ancient palace is probably nothing more than this, right?"

"It seems that my cousin-in-law's family is richer than we thought!"

"..."

All the relatives and friends were amazed, and this kind of exclamation was nothing new for the Deng Shirong family.

After all, every time a guest comes, they will be amazed when they see this mansion. So far, no guest has remained calm when facing this mansion.

Deng Shirong greeted with a smile: "Dear relatives, please be casual. If you want to drink tea, you can sit down and drink tea. If you want to visit, you can visit. There is no need to be restrained!"

At this time, who still wants to drink tea? After a few polite words, the wedding guests began to visit this extremely beautiful mansion in groups, and Qin Fengli's family of five were naturally among them.

When visiting the house, Qin Fengli's husband Zhao Guojin said with emotion: "Pengli, your niece has married so well, your sister's family is really going to be prosperous!"

Qin Fengli nodded and said: "Yes, Yuemei is so beautiful and has been admitted to a key university. I knew that she would definitely be good at marrying in the future, but I never expected that she would marry so well. In the future, I Sister, you can enjoy the blessing!"

Qin Fengli's daughter Zhao Fanghua said with envy: "My cousin's life is really good!"

Qin Fengli said: "If your cousin marries your cousin-in-law, she will definitely come into contact with rich and powerful people in the future. You should keep in touch with your cousin more often and ask her to introduce you to a good partner in a few years. ”

Zhao Fanghua blushed and said, "Mom, I'm only 16 years old, you think so far?"

Qin Fengli said: "Sixteen is not too young. Besides, I'm not asking you to find a partner now. I'm asking you to establish a good relationship with your cousin. Then let her find a partner for you. The conditions will definitely not be much different. of."

Zhao Guojin was moved in his heart and suggested: "Pineli, isn't your sister's sour food shop short of manpower? Anyway, Fanghua's academic performance is not good, and she probably won't be able to go to college. It's better to let her drop out of school and come to help your sister. "

Qin Fengli was a little moved when she heard this, but she still shook her head and said: "No, no matter whether I can get into college or not, at least I have to finish high school. This academic qualification is sometimes very important. When looking for a partner in the future, junior high school The weight of an academic degree is different from a high school degree.”

Zhao Guojin thought about it and it made sense, so he nodded and said, "Okay, Fanghua, you should finish high school first. After you graduate, I will arrange for you to come to Nanning to help your aunt."

Zhao Fanghua blinked and responded: "Okay, Dad."

Zhao Ziyang answered: "Dad, Mom, what about us?"

Qin Fengli shook her head and said: "Don't even think about it, you two. Even if a girl's family conditions are worse, as long as her own conditions are good, it is not difficult to find a partner with good family conditions, but it will be different if it is a boy. Unless you You are very good, otherwise a girl from a good family would not be able to marry you."

Zhao Ziyang: "..."

Not only Qin Fengli's family, but also other relatives and friends have made up their minds to get closer to Fan Yuemei in the future.

…

Eleven o'clock in the morning.

The hotpot on the second floor has an area specially designated for the wedding of Deng Yunhua and Fan Yuemei.

At this time, most of the guests have arrived.

There were no wedding companies in this era, and the wedding process was not that particular. Basically, the parents of both parties came on stage to say a few words, the bride and groom said a few more words, and then the ceremony was announced.

It is worth mentioning that both Deng Yunheng's family and Deng Yunsong's family came back specially to attend Deng Yunhua's wedding.

Today, Deng Yunheng is chatting with his senior sister Song Yu.

Deng Yunheng said: "Sister Song, look, even my fourth brother is married, you really need to hurry up!"

Song Yu sighed and said, "It's really difficult to find a suitable partner. My standards for choosing a spouse have been lowered very low now, but I still can't find a suitable candidate."

Deng Yunheng asked: "Sister Song, tell me the truth, what kind of person are you looking for? I'll see if I can help you look for it."

Song Yu said: "Actually, my requirements are not very high now. As long as I have a college degree or above, good looks, and good character, that's it. I don't have any other requirements such as family background or job." ”

"This requirement is indeed not too high."

Deng Yunheng nodded and said: "Then when I return to Fuzhou, I will look for you carefully and see if I can find someone who meets your requirements."

Song Yu smiled and said, "Okay, then I'm counting on you!"

Deng Yunheng said dumbfounded: "Sister Song, don't count on me. I can only help you look for it. I can't guarantee whether you can find a suitable candidate. You still have to pay attention to it yourself."

Song Yu said: "I will pay attention."

Deng Yunheng changed the subject and said: "Sister Song, how is your work now? When can you mention it to the boss?"

Song Yu said: "The work is going well. As for when it will be mentioned to the top, I don't know. But one of the leaders should retire next year. Let's see if there is an opportunity then!"

Deng Yunheng said: "If you need me, just tell me and I will give you my full support."

"If I really need it, I'll have to trouble you."

Having said this, Song Yu also asked: "What about you, is your work going well recently?"

Deng Yunheng nodded and said: "My work is going very smoothly. My current position is relatively easy. I get all the benefits and I don't have to bear the responsibilities."

Song Yu said enviously: "It's great. I am now the leader. I have the power, but the responsibilities are also heavy. Every day is like walking on thin ice. How can I be as comfortable as you!"

Deng Yunheng smiled and said: "You have a heavy responsibility, but you have also trained yourself very well and laid the foundation for the next promotion. This is called gains and losses."

While the two were chatting, the wedding banquet officially started.

Since the wedding banquet was held at a hot pot restaurant, the food and wine were also very unique. In addition to various essential stir-fried dishes, every table was served with mandarin duck hot pot. Such dishes are truly unique among many wedding banquets.

If there are people who can choose the taste of stir-fry dishes, then hot pot really caters to the tastes of all guests.

Less than ten minutes after the banquet started, the bride and groom started the toasting session.

After the bride and groom complete the toasting session, the wedding banquet is coming to an end.

Next, it’s time to see off guests again.

After all the guests had left, only my family was left.

Back at the mansion on the fifth floor, the family drank tea and chatted.

Ever since Deng Yunheng and Deng Yunsong started working, there have been fewer and fewer opportunities for family reunions. Even during holidays, there may not always be opportunities to reunite. Only major events such as the marriage of brothers and sisters can reunite the family.

Deng Shirong said happily: "It's rare for you seven brothers and sisters to get together, so each of you should report your own situation. Yuntai, you come first."

Deng Yuntai responded and said energetically: "Since Yunheng introduced me to a few capable assistants, the development of my supermarket chain has been on the right track, and as the management system has become more and more perfect, the development speed has become faster and faster. , now a new supermarket opens every few days on average.

So far, the number of our Yongjia supermarkets has reached 136, and it is still growing rapidly. This year’s net profit is conservatively estimated to be around 120 million. "

As soon as these words came out, the brothers and sisters took a breath of air.

As the new daughter-in-law, Fan Yuemei was even more stunned.

She knew that her eldest brother and sister-in-law ran Yongjia Supermarket, and she also knew that the business seemed to be very big, but Deng Yunhua didn't tell her much before. She really never expected that the business scale of her eldest brother and sister-in-law was so big.

A year's net profit is as high as 120 million. What is the concept?

You know, even in Nanning Snack Street, when the preferential period for rent ends, the income in a year will be only a few million at most. Compared with the supermarket chain of Big Brothers Big Sisters, it is at least ten times worse. This is simply It's so scary.

Deng Shirong nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good, but don't be complacent. The reason why we are developing so smoothly now is because the foreign supermarket giants have not yet entered the country. After those foreign giants enter the country, Others can enjoy the best policy support, whether it is taxes or rent, it will be so low that you can't imagine it.

At that time, your supermarket chain will lose its cost advantage and competitive pressure will follow.

Before your competitors come, you must seize the time to develop, seize the market first, and then find ways to retain new and old customers. Specifically, you must first discuss with the supermarket management and come up with a feasible plan. "

Deng Yuntai nodded and said: "I understand. We have already worked out the plan. Let me show it to Dad later."

Deng Shirong hummed, then looked at his eldest daughter and said, "Azhen, please tell me about your situation."

Deng Yunzhen said with a smile: "I have nothing to say. The Suifeng Hotel and the Yongjia Supermarket given to me by my elder brother and sister-in-law add up to an income of about two million a year, which is enough for me.

Junjie's work is also going well. If nothing goes wrong, he should be able to become the county magistrate of Bobai County next month. "

Hearing these words, Fan Yuemei, the new daughter-in-law, was secretly shocked. She did not expect that the eldest sister could be so powerful, and the position of the eldest brother-in-law shocked her even more.

Although she was engaged to Deng Yunhua before, she had not actually married him yet. She was too embarrassed to ask about her future husband's family in detail, so she only knew that her husband's family was super rich, but she didn't know how rich they were. of.

Naturally, I didn’t know that my eldest brother-in-law had become such a big official.

After hearing this, the brothers and sisters also congratulated Zhu Junjie one after another. Becoming the county magistrate was considered a "high and powerful position".

Zhu Junjie's attitude was very humble. In front of his two brothers-in-law, Deng Yunheng and Deng Yunsong, he really had no pride at all. Needless to say, Deng Yunheng had been promoted to deputy director four years ago.

Even for Deng Yunsong, his brother-in-law, the level of the couple is equal to his, and according to their promotion speed, it is only a matter of time before they surpass him.

Under such circumstances, how could Zhu Junjie be proud?

Deng Shirong smiled and said: "Yunheng, it's your turn!"

Deng Yunheng said: "My leaders here have also talked to me. There may be a chance to make some moves next year."

As soon as these words came out, the whole family became excited.

You know, Deng Yunheng is now a full-time deputy secretary. If he makes a move, there will be nothing but promotion.

Fan Yuemei was a little confused when she saw this, not knowing what everyone was excited about.

Deng Yunhua explained to his wife excitedly: "Yuemei, my second brother was already the deputy director four years ago. If he is promoted again, he will be the main director. You should understand what this means, right?"

Fan Yuemei showed a horrified expression when she heard this. The second brother was the deputy director four years ago. How is this possible?

Not to mention the uninformed Fan Yuemei, even Pei Qinghua, who has the most powerful identity and background, showed a surprised expression at this time. If the second brother can really be promoted successfully this time, then he will definitely be the youngest chief executive in the country. one.

Seeing that his family was so excited, Deng Yunheng quickly added: "It's just a chance, the matter has not been decided yet!"

Deng Shirong said with a smile on his face: "Very good, since your leader has talked to you, then this matter will most likely be successful. We are waiting for your good news!"

Deng Yunheng nodded and said, "I will try my best."

Deng Shirong hummed, looked at his youngest daughter and said, "Azhu, it's your turn."

Deng Yunzhu said with a smile: "Since Brother Dong resigned and came to help me, the development of my hotpot chain has accelerated a lot. There are currently 38 hotpot restaurants. The annual income is naturally incomparable to that of my elder brother and sister-in-law's supermarket, but There is still a profit of 10 to 20 million.”

Hearing this, the bride Fan Yuemei was shocked again. Her husband's family was ten times more powerful than she imagined.

Other brothers and sisters also congratulated Deng Yunzhu.

Deng Shirong smiled and looked at his third son and said, "Xiao Song, tell me too."

Deng Yunsong smiled and said: "Dad, everyone knows that this is my achievement, so there is no need to say more!"

Deng Yunhua promptly explained to his wife: "My third brother is the second-in-command of a county-level city, and my third sister-in-law is the director of the municipal finance bureau. They are both division-level cadres."

Fan Yuemei was completely numb when she heard this!

How many officials have come out of this husband's family?

Moreover, the lowest ranking cadres are all division-level cadres, which is simply unbelievable.
