Life is more than just living

On the way back, Chen Xu frowned and kept thinking. She didn't speak for a long time, but Lin Zhiyuan was not used to it. He asked what was wrong, why didn't she speak? Chen Xu turned to look at Lin Zhiyuan, "Brother, actually I don't understand. What do you think the person behind this wants to do? In the words of movies and TV series, isn't this just a warning?"

Lin Zhiyuan smiled, "What they want is to alert the snake. If this matter has anything to do with me, then I will definitely expose it in order to cover it up. These people really want this matter to have something to do with me."

Chen Xu sighed, alas! Lin Zhiyuan smiled, "Why are you sighing? The peaceful days have been boring for so long. If they want to play, just play with them. Your father Liu is right, the life is too comfortable, it's really not good, Easeful days can easily make people lose their fighting spirit.”

One day while having breakfast, Lin Zhiyuan suddenly asked: "How is Han Yidao's business?" Chen Xu stirred the porridge in the bowl with a spoon, "I didn't ask much, after all, it is not his company alone, and Xue Li and Ma Mingchuan's share may make some money, but the distribution to each person should be limited. After all, those things are only bought when they are needed, unlike clothes, which can be bought when they want."

After finishing his meal, Lin Zhiyuan took out a paper towel and wiped his mouth, and said: "Beicheng's commercial city needs a knowledgeable person to run it. Last year, Guo Jian tried hard in many ways, but he didn't make a profit. It's okay if he doesn't make money. It also involves too much of Guo Jian's energy. Now I have no motivation to operate it. During this time, I have been thinking about whether to change it to the model of Longcheng Commercial Building here for all leasing, or to continue to operate it by myself. This is a question. If I continue to operate it, there is no suitable person. Management was not possible in the past, and Guo Jian was busy running both ways. If it were rented out, just to clear out the warehouse, there might be chaos for a while. If Han Yidao is interested, we can leave it to him to run it."

Chen Xu looked up at Lin Zhiyuan, not fully understanding what he meant. Lin Zhiyuan stood up, took his bowl to the sink, washed it, dried it and put it on the shelf. Then he wiped his hands and came back and said: "If you have time, tell him that the supermarket on the first floor has two months left to expire. That one is rented out. Currently, only that supermarket is profitable. The shopping mall upstairs is empty. If Han Yidao is interested, the first floor can be taken back when it expires and he will run it. Two days ago, Guo Jian told me: He worked for nothing last year and made no profit. He felt very ashamed. In fact, there was nothing he could do about it. With so many employees, the daily electricity bill is high. The supermarket downstairs is quite prosperous, but it is rented out and only the rent is collected to make up for the loss upstairs. In fact, the upstairs is closed and only the first floor is rented out. The supermarket still has hundreds of thousands in rent. Unexpectedly, the supermarket owner asked Guo Jian to bargain with Guo Jian a few days ago and wanted to lower the rent. He was sure that the upstairs would not be profitable, so he thought Guo Jian would have to give in. Little did he know that there were many People are staring at that supermarket, that mall has customers. Guo Jian said that some time ago, Zhang Jiaqi's cousin was still thinking about that supermarket, but that person was not reliable, so Guo Jian rejected him directly. This matter is not forced, if Han Yidao is interested, it will be a win-win situation for everyone, but if he is not interested, it doesn’t matter.”

Chen Xu finished the porridge in the bowl, wiped his mouth, then looked at Lin Zhiyuan and said, "Brother, thank you. I know you want to give Han Yidao a chance and get him here to create opportunities for both of us." Lin Zhiyuan smiled, "Silly girl, don't keep saying thank you. Just think that I am selfish. I hope that boy will slowly shift the focus of his work here. I can't bear to have you leave Longcheng. During the Chinese New Year this year , it’s so lively, I got greedy. There are your parents, your little brother, and Han Yidao over there, I’m really afraid that I can’t compete!”

Chen Xu felt a little sad after what he said. He understood Lin Zhiyuan's loneliness and wanted to spend more time with him. But, hey, forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. If Teacher Lin was still here, he wouldn't leave at all. He would definitely want to be around him. Around Teacher Lin, two lonely people now accompany each other!

Chen Xu found time to tell Han Yidao about Lin Zhiyuan's proposal. Chen Xu was very careful when he said it, for fear that Han Yidao would feel uncomfortable. Unexpectedly, Han Yidao responded generously and said: "Let me think about it. Now our company and the electrical appliance store have encountered a bottleneck. When I go to the Longcheng store in two days, I will stop by Beicheng to inspect it before doing anything. Decide."

Han Yidao kept his promise and came to Longcheng within a few days. Accompanied by Guo Jian, he went to the Commercial City in Beicheng. He stayed there for three days for on-site inspections and finally made up his mind to take over the management of the Commercial City. After he made his decision, Lin Zhiyuan received him personally, asked him to come and talk in detail, and stayed with him to eat.

This is the first time Han Yidao has seen Chen Xu's house. He didn't expect the house to be so big. Chen Xu made no secret and said that when he was about to resign, he had no place to live. This was the house lent to him by his eldest brother. The younger brother arrogantly bought this house from his eldest brother and gave it to him.

Han Yidao nodded and said, "Yes, having two brothers to take care of you is a sign of God's love for you." Just now, Han Yidao had been talking for a long time in Lin Zhiyuan's room, but Chen Xu didn't ask what specifically he said. Instead, the meals were carefully prepared.

After the three of them finished eating, Chen Xu made tea for the two of them and asked them to sit on the sofa and talk while he went to the kitchen to clean up. Lin Zhiyuan said: "I have given housing to all the key people under my command, but this building is currently full. However, on the sixth floor of the unit next door, there is a gym and a monitoring room. The monitoring room is usually manned 24 hours a day. Let's clean up that house for you to live in. That house is more than 200 square meters and has the same layout as this one. The monitoring room and their duty room are in the same room. There are three other rooms available. If you think it's okay, If you find it inconvenient to live here, you can rent a house elsewhere and the company will pay for it.”

Han Yidao shook his head and said, "Don't bother me. Didn't you say that house has several bedrooms? I only need one room, and I can't stay here for a long time. My grandma is over there. I may be there during the preparation stage." Stay here for a little longer and wait until the mall operations are on track. I don’t need to stare there every day." Lin Zhiyuan nodded in agreement.

Han Yidao said: "I will draw up a plan first. After finishing it, I need to make a budget. I can give you the plan next week. I plan to go back this afternoon to put grandma in place, and then come back next week when the plan is ready. If If you think it's feasible, you need to do some preliminary preparations." Lin Zhiyuan nodded in agreement, and he was pleased to have another capable person.
