Siheyuan: Pioneer in anti-corruption, fighting against evil!

"Did Xu Huizhen ask you to come?"

"That's not the case!" He Yuzhu shook his head and said, "I really can't stand it anymore.

I work with Xu Huizhen and Sister Chen. The children call me Uncle He. Although I didn't see them grow up, they are right in front of them now.

It's uncomfortable for you parents to watch, I can imagine how they feel.

After hearing this, Fan Jinyou said, "Zhu Zi, how could we not care about the child?"

"The way of showing concern is wrong!" He Yuzhu continued, "Ever since they went to college, Hou Kui has had a special liking for Xu Jingli.

I don't believe Xu Jingli doesn't like Hou Kui. She is already thirty years old. Is she still waiting for someone else?"

"Hou Kui is one year older than her!"

"Are you two really not in a hurry?"

Chen Xueru retorted: "How can I not be anxious?"

"But why does this child fall for Xu Jingli?"

"What can we do about it?" He Yuzhu spread his hands, "You are a mother, of course you have the right to interfere, but if you interfere improperly, it may cause harm.

Between love and family affection, there is no deep hatred between your two families, and the conflict between you and Xu Huizhen should not affect the next generation.

"I know you're competing with each other, but from an outsider's perspective, I'd think you have a blood feud!"

"Does this make sense?"

"..." Chen Xueru was speechless after hearing this. After all, she and Xu Huizhen had no grudges against each other.

When they were doing business on Qianmen Street, these two women were the ones in charge.

If it were men, this situation might not have happened, after all, how could hundreds of merchants compete? However, it happened to be two women, and the competition and competitiveness between them would naturally be magnified. Over the years, they have become accustomed to it, but this cannot be a reason to delay the child.

Seeing that Chen Xueru's attitude had softened, He Yuzhu hurriedly persuaded her again: "The two children have grown up, and now is a good time to get married. Otherwise, it may not be easy to have children in the future.

"What if it's delayed?"

"Well..." Chen Xueru finally nodded, "Okay, I won't stop them anymore, let them get married!"

"Okay, then I'll start arranging this marriage, and Sister Chen, don't blame me when the time comes.

"He Yuzhu smiled with satisfaction and said half-jokingly.

"How could that be?" Chen Xueru agreed. On the one hand, it was because her reason told her that this was right, and on the other hand, it was just going with the flow and giving He Yuzhu some face.

He Yuzhu was very satisfied. After the two chatted for a while, he stood up and said goodbye.

After leaving Chen Xueru's house, he went straight to Xu Huizhen's house.

When Fan Jinyou saw He Yuzhu leaving, he asked, "Are you really planning to let Hou Kui marry Xu Jingli?"

"What else can we do?" Chen Xueru glanced at him, "This kid is very stubborn, and it's been several years.

"If I could change my mind, I would have done so long ago. If I really drag it out, I'm really worried that there will be problems.

"Now that He Yuzhu has come forward, I have a way out. If I don't resolve it, not only will I offend He Yuzhu, but my own son will also be affected!" Chen Xueru explained.

Fan Jinyou nodded in agreement: "Indeed, I didn't expect him to come forward on his own initiative, and it doesn't look like Xu Huizhen found him.

"Xu Huizhen wouldn't go looking for him, he must have taken the initiative.

"Chen Xueru recalled the past, "Didn't they go to Hong Kong Island together before?"

"The two families have always had a good relationship!" Fan Jinyou stroked his chin in thought.

“The main reason is that I don’t have enough manpower.

Chen Xueru sighed, "Xu Huizhen has Xu Jingli to help manage the hotel, so her life is easy, but what about Hou Kui..."

"Hmm..." Fan Jinyou's eyes flashed. He and Chen Xueru also have a son named Fan Xiaojun. "You can ask Xiaojun for help!"

"Him?" Chen Xueru rolled her eyes. "He's still very young!"

“You should give him a chance to exercise.

“Fan Jinyou was also considering his son. Hou Kui is the eldest son, and his position next to Chen Xueru is not stable.

"Well, let him try.

"Chen Xueru thought about it. After all, one is her husband and the other is her son," Let him take charge of a department first.

“Everything has to be done step by step.

"Okay, just give him a chance, I believe Xiaojun can do it.

"Fan Jinyou was very happy, and he had to tell his son about this.

Then, Fan Jinyou asked again: "How much money do you think He Yuzhu has?"

"His business is getting bigger and bigger. I heard he even invested in a TV series. Can that make money?"

"I don't know, but I have thought about it. He was just a chef. How much savings could he have?" Chen Xueru analyzed. "Even if he took private jobs, how much could he earn?"

"Then I thought, he first ran a restaurant for several years, then opened a branch, invested in Xu Huizhen's hotel, then opened a hot pot chain with Lou Xiao'e, and now invested in our hotel, all of which are profitable businesses.

“Coupled with his food factory, instant noodles are now selling like hot cakes.

Fan Jinyou added.

"That's right, how can a chef make so much money?" Chen Xueru sighed, "But he is indeed courageous. He invested so much in a five-star hotel, but he only checked the accounts and didn't do the actual operation.

Fan Jinyou smiled and said, "Indeed, he has it much easier than you and Xu Huizhen. Most of the affairs are taken care of by others. He only needs to pay attention to the food factory, and the food factory has a factory director. He is mainly responsible for developing formulas.

"What a graceful figure! It looks like you are all working for him to make money!"

"..." Chen Xueru glared at Fan Jinyou fiercely, "Watch your words, I'm the chairman!"

He Yuzhu walked into the tavern and found that it was still open. It was also very bustling here years ago.

"Hey, Master Niu, you are here?" He Yuzhu saw Master Niu as soon as he entered the door and quickly bowed.

"Boss He is here?" Niu Ye said with a smile, "You are very busy now, it's rare for you to come.

"Stop busying yourself. Take your time drinking. I'm going to go look for Xu Huizhen and her husband.

"He Yuzhu walked towards the counter. Cai Quanwu was already there. When he saw He Yuzhu coming in, he did not interrupt them.

Until this moment, he said: "Zhu Zi, your sister-in-law is behind.

"Just go in!"

"OK.

"He Yuzhu walked to the backyard and shouted as soon as he entered the door: "Sister-in-law, it's done!"

There are many female members in their family, so they always have to say hello when entering or leaving the backyard.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Xu Huizhen lifted the door curtain and came out to ask, "Is it done?"

"Yes, Chen Xueru agreed, I will be the matchmaker.

We will start preparations after the New Year, and you can choose a good day then.

"He Yuzhu smiled and said: "Tell the children first and let them have a good new year.

“Good idea, they are at the hotel, wait for me to go back and tell Jingli.

"Xu Huizhen had a good impression of Hou Kui. If it weren't for Chen Xueru's relationship, she would have been very supportive of this marriage,"Come in and sit down.

"Okay, I'll have another cup of tea.

"He Yuzhu entered the room, Xu Huizhen made tea, and the two chatted while drinking, mainly discussing business matters.

Dividends had been distributed before the New Year, but the hotel is open all year round, and Xu Jingli is busy with work at this time.

At present, Xu Huizhen has no plans to expand other businesses. The hotel will take several years to develop and she also needs to accumulate funds.

Cai Quanwu looked at the tavern and didn't come over. He Yuzhu drank a cup of tea and said goodbye and left.

In the new year, the He family is very lively and the festive atmosphere is strong because of the large number of people.

After the New Year, the children left one after another, and Jiang Defu and An Jie also set out on their journey home.

The yard gradually became quiet, but He Yuzhu was still busy. The instant noodle factory started production after the New Year and sales were still booming.

He is constantly introducing new flavors.

He was supposed to go to Qiandao Lake, but as a matchmaker, he had a heavy responsibility, so he began to contact the two families and asked Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru to sit together to discuss the children's marriage.

Hou Kui was naturally overjoyed about this and even came to the He family to express his gratitude during the New Year.

Xu Jingli was more reserved, but did not explicitly oppose.

He Yuzhu acted as a matchmaker and adjusted the atmosphere so that the two ladies could make a smooth decision, otherwise it would have been very difficult for them to reach a consensus.

After the date was confirmed, He Yuzhu took Jiang Weimin straight to Qiandao Lake.

Good water quality is key, but future maintenance is also critical.

After arriving, He Yuzhu inspected the environment and then contacted the local ** department to explain his purpose.

The other party was very enthusiastic. After the reform and opening up, all regions were seeking economic development, and they would of course warmly welcome anyone willing to invest and build a factory.

He Yuzhu introduced himself as the Master He brand. Although it is not well-known in China, its instant noodle products are quite famous.

When they learned that He Yuzhu was going to build a beverage factory and use water from Qiandao Lake, they were concerned about infrastructure construction and water quality protection, which are indeed not to be ignored.

Building a factory is inevitably inseparable from basic facilities such as water and electricity, and has special requirements for water quality and site selection.

The local government held a banquet especially for He Yuzhu, during which the leader took the initiative to ask: "Boss He, we welcome your investment very much, and we are also obliged to provide infrastructure.

But what is the size of your investment...exactly?"

“You know, Qiandao Lake is very large, and the lives of many people living around it depend on it.

"He Yuzhu responded: "Let's not talk about the scale of investment for now. It is difficult for me to give a specific number at the moment, but I can introduce our products to you.

"..." The leader looked confused. What does it mean to introduce the product?

He Yuzhu ignored the leader's confusion and continued, "First, we will launch two beverages, both of which are tea drinks with tea fragrance, which requires deep processing of tea leaves.

"Do you have the conditions to grow tea here?" he asked.

"of course can.

The leader responded immediately.

"In this way, I have promoted the local economic development, haven't I?" He Yuzhu spread his hands and explained, "Suzhou and Hangzhou have had famous tea since ancient times, but we don't buy expensive tea, but choose high-quality varieties with moderate prices that are suitable for large-scale planting.

“The closer the raw material source is to the factory, the lower the cost.

I will purchase directly from local sources, thereby promoting the development of tea cultivation and providing tea farmers with a stable income.

“This also requires **’s technical support, and the standards and safety requirements of the food industry are very strict.

“In addition, there are fruit-flavored beverages, and deep processing of fruits can also boost the economy.

Therefore, the scale of investment is not a problem.

“Our factory is built upstream, and aquaculture can also be carried out downstream, and this part also needs to be clarified.

"Well, that makes sense.

"The leader's eyes lit up," Your point of view is very unique. The industrial chain that a factory can drive is indeed extensive.

“I mean, this place is not suitable for chemical and heavy industries, after all, they will bring pollution, and once the water source is damaged, the losses will be huge, and many industries will be affected.

"He Yuzhu emphasized, "What we need to think about now is how to make full use of high-quality water resources, which is also the focus of my investment.

“The scale of the factory should be planned according to future operations. Beverages with good water quality will naturally be more popular, and factory expansion is necessary. Factors such as employment and raw material procurement will increase accordingly.

“Well said, I understand.

I will hold a meeting tomorrow. Please wait for two days and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. Come, I will toast you a glass.

"After that, the topic no longer revolved around work, but frequent toasts. He Yuzhu accepted all the drinks, but most of the wine was put into his space.

He did not want to drink excessively with these people, nor did he ask Jiang Weimin to stop them from drinking.

When the time was right, he pretended to be drunk and was then sent to a local guesthouse.

Back in the room, He Yuzhu patted Jiang Weimin on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I'm not drunk.

"Jiang Weimin looked at him in surprise.

"Uncle He, are you acting?" he asked.

"We have to act. This meal will never end. They are looking forward to our investment!" He Yuzhu sat down and Jiang Weimin quickly poured him some water.

(After taking a sip of water, he continued: "Our investment scale is not small. Now we need the local government to give us some preferential policies. At the same time, we also need to support tea and fruit farmers in technical training and plant according to our production plan.

These all require ** to come forward to coordinate.

“So, we can’t easily agree to invest, but we should let them take action instead of passively waiting for our capital investment.

“These things need to be done simultaneously, otherwise once the factory is built, if there is a shortage of raw materials or the price is too high, it will cause problems.

“Yeah, I understand.

"Jiang Weimin nodded. This was He Yuzhu instructing him.

）

"By the way, don't forget to buy some local tea leaves. I'll have to study how to adjust the production formula of the beverage when I get back. It would be best if it's new tea that hasn't been roasted.

"He Yuzhu said.

“Okay, I’ll go ask around tomorrow morning to see where I can buy it nearby.

You should take a rest first!" Jiang Weimin immediately went out to find out the news.

......

The next day, the local ** meeting began.

The leader thought about He Yuzhu's suggestion again and again, and the more he thought about it, the more it made sense.

Their region is not suitable for large-scale development of heavy industry. Resources are mainly concentrated around Qiandao Lake and are mainly based on agriculture. Master He Food Factory is the most suitable choice as an investor.

Therefore, they decided to do their best to retain He Yuzhu, and cooperate with his product production to gradually expand the scale.

The meeting lasted two days, and each department proposed its own cooperation strategy.

It is not yet the peak period for investment promotion. Many people’s concepts are still changing, and there are not many innovative ideas and methods, which makes it difficult for leaders.

The solutions proposed at the meeting were still the ones put forward by He Yuzhu yesterday, such as technical assistance and infrastructure construction.
