Siheyuan: The Qing Dynasty is back

As time went by, "He Family Private Restaurants" opened one after another in the four directions of the city: southeast, northwest, and northeast.

He Daqing founded Lao He's Catering Company.

As the chairman of the company, he is basically a hands-off boss.

Chen Xueru was appointed as the general manager of the company, responsible for all the work of several restaurants. This allowed this descendant of a business family to bring out her original talents and manage the company in an orderly manner.

He Yushui is specifically responsible for financial management. This was planned by He Daqing a long time ago. He graduated with a major in accounting and has worked in the finance department of a steel rolling mill for many years. He has the experience and the professional match, which is perfect.

Yu Li, head of logistics procurement, is responsible for all procurement.

Having worked in the kitchen for so long, she is no problem at all. Moreover, Yu Li is smart and capable, and she is very good at logistics and procurement.

Sha Zhu, the person in charge of "He Family Private Restaurant" in Dongcheng District of Sijiu City, is the head chef and leads a dozen of his fellow apprentices.

This is the restaurant closest to his home and the first one to open, so He Daqing handed it over to Sha Zhu.

Nan Yi, the person in charge of "He Family Private Restaurant" in the southern part of Sijiu City and the head chef, also leads a dozen or so fellow apprentices.

Zhang Tieshao, the person in charge of "He's Private Restaurant" in Xicheng District of the old city...

Ma Hua and Luo Xiaofeng are jointly responsible for the restaurant in the North City District.

For each restaurant, He Daqing purchased a piece of land of similar size to a siheyuan. Some of the restaurants even purchased a siheyuan directly for renovation.

According to his vision, the four restaurants in the east, south, west and north were decorated in different styles by him. The environment is elegant, the privacy is good, and more importantly, the taste is unique.

He Daqing assigned apprentices with different strengths to each restaurant. Some were good at Sichuan cuisine, some were good at Shandong cuisine, and Tan cuisine was also taught to each apprentice by He Daqing. As for how much they could learn, it depended on their individual circumstances.

When the business opened, He Daqing used the personal connections he had made over the years to invite many industry leaders and old customers from the government.

The moment these people entered the restaurant, they were attracted by the unique decoration style. The warm and thoughtful service coupled with the delicious food opened everyone's eyes.

Before opening, He Daqing made many adjustments to the dishes in the restaurant, giving them a unique flavor that customers will definitely enjoy after eating.

With the success of its opening, the reputation of He's Private Restaurant became more and more famous in the city.

At that time, there were not many large private restaurants in the city, but there were quite a few small, fly-infested restaurants.

If some distinguished guests want to entertain friends, they can either go to a state-owned restaurant or choose He's private restaurant.

Everyone knows what a state-owned restaurant looks like.

With the start of the movement in recent years, there have been cases of waiters in some restaurants insulting or even beating customers. As for service, forget it.

We are all comrades of the people, why should I serve you?

Anyway, they have a stable job and are not afraid of losing it. Even the managers cannot fire them at will.

In such an environment, Hejia Private Restaurant's warm service, beautiful environment and unique delicacies have become the first choice for most people.

Chen Xueru and the others, who were originally a little worried, were once again impressed by He Daqing's unique vision after seeing how popular the restaurant was.

Everyone was receiving high salaries and high commissions, and they were full of energy. At the same time, they were also grateful for their wise choices. After all, they had resolutely chosen to follow He Daqing and give up their iron rice bowls, which was risky. Now it seemed that it was definitely a wise decision.

When "He's Private Restaurant" was booming, He Daqing used the funds he had earned over the years to start buying up idle land in the old city and set up a real estate company again.

At this time, Beijing was just beginning to develop, and wealthy people took advantage of the country's opening up to sell their property and leave the country.

It was not until the 1980s that the craze for going abroad reached its peak.

He Daqing took advantage of the opportunity to purchase real estate and land and develop commercial residential buildings.

When his first batch of buildings were built, he exchanged them with the people living in the courtyard houses. Anyone who was willing to live in a building could exchange their courtyard house for a high-end building.

Almost no one in the entire courtyard objected to such a good thing. Everyone was quite satisfied with the house with a bathroom and running water. When He Daqing proposed it, everyone readily reached an agreement with him and moved into the building together.

At that time, the siheyuan, or slum, was worth nothing at all, and exchanging it for an apartment was simply a pie in the sky.

After all the neighbors in the courtyard moved out, the entire courtyard became He Daqing's.

He called the decoration team under his company to carry out an overall renovation of the courtyard house.

Without destroying the original style, water, electricity and bathroom were renovated, making the courtyard house more convenient and beautiful on the basis of the original style.

Fortunately, He Daqing's family is now prosperous and has many children, otherwise such a large courtyard would seem deserted if they were the only ones living there.

As He Yuchen and He Yuyao grew up, got married and had children, the courtyard was filled with the sounds of children playing.

In the days that followed, as Chen Xueru grew older, He Daqing divided his huge fortune among his children and took Chen Xueru to travel around to see the beautiful rivers and mountains of the motherland.

Until Chen Xueru passed away in her nineties, He Daqing held a grand funeral for her, solemnly burying this partner who had been with him silently for decades.

Because he has upgraded his superpowers three times and the energy has improved his physical fitness, He Daqing, who is now over a hundred years old, has a physical fitness that is not inferior to that of a man in his thirties or forties.

It's just that he has been disguising his appearance for many years, so it's impossible to tell his exact age.

After saying goodbye to Chen Xueru, Sha Zhu, He Yushui and others, they all gradually retired and lived out their days at home.

On a sunny day, He Daqing left a letter home, quietly left home, and began his journey to find and improve his supernatural powers.

He donated most of the antiques and cultural relics he had collected over the years to the country while it was still dark.

Under the courtyard, He Daqing built an extra-large basement.

All the gold, silver, jewels, calligraphy and paintings in the space were hidden underneath by him.

The family letters also clearly told their descendants that unless it was absolutely necessary, the things inside must not be touched.

Now He Daqing doesn’t even know how many descendants he has. His family tree has already counted from his generation to five or six generations later.

Some have developed in China, and many have chosen to develop abroad, but their roots are always in the courtyards of Beijing.

As for He Daqing, his descendants hardly ever heard any news from him again. It was as if he disappeared silently in the long river of time without a ripple.

The book is finished!

(Thanks to all the readers. It is your support that allowed Sui Sui to finish writing this book. I would like to thank you all again here (bow!). The new book has been released. Sui Sui wants to change to a novel subject. Although it is still based on the Siheyuan, it will focus more on hunting. The Siheyuan is just the background blueprint. Welcome everyone to continue reading the new book "Siheyuan, My Hunting Career"! Thank you!)
