High point

The dedicated butler, Lao Li, stood straight at the door and waited for them. He took the coats of the two of them, and Mr. Huo asked, "Is the food ready?"

Lao Li said: "Yes, young master, you can eat right away."

Follow Mr. Huo to the spacious dining room. There is a rectangular table with six chairs on each side. There is no main seat, and there is room left.The cloud pattern decoration on the wall next to it has a western flavor. On the small recessed platform, there are several bronze sculptures of different shapes, and a big-leaf bonsai next to it adds a bit of spring to the dining room.

After washing my hands in the side hall, I found that the dishes on the dinner table were really "homely": braised potato and chicken nuggets, steamed bream, fried Chinese cabbage, fried corn kernels with green beans, pork with pickled vegetables, scrambled eggs with tomato, and so on. There is steaming shredded mustard soup with pork.

A very sumptuous dinner, although they are not luxurious dishes, but almost all of them are really Su Ling's favorite food.

Just now, I still had a dull appetite, but I was suddenly aroused by this table of delicious home-cooked dishes.

I felt hungry all of a sudden.

As soon as the two of them sat down, a bowl of fragrant rice was served. Su Ling couldn't help but picked up the chopsticks.

Potatoes are actually not easy to cook, especially it is much more difficult to cook than chicken. It takes a lot of skill to make the chicken taste not old, and the potatoes are just cooked. Today's chicken is very delicious, potatoes and braised sauce , As soon as you bite your mouth, the unique crispy powdery feeling of potatoes immediately overflows your mouth.

Steamed bream, the body of the fish has been cut beforehand, fully allowing the mellow aroma of rice wine to enter into the plump meat, and the shredded ginger next to it is very good at removing the fishy smell of the bream, while retaining the freshness of the meat Well, except for bream, Su Ling basically doesn't eat much fish, and it's the first time he's eaten such a good bream.

Chinese cabbage looks very delicious, with light green leaves and stalks, plus some lard fully fried in it, without any other seasoning, it has captured its light essence.

Next is fried corn kernels with green beans. Both green beans and corn have a bit of sweetness. There is no extra ingredients in the dish, but more vegetable oil is added. Even though the flavors of the two plants are well blended, they are also fragrant and appetizing.

Pork with pickled vegetables, a typical southern dish, because preserved vegetables are only popular in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, borrowed from some braised cooking methods, the color is crimson red and oily, but pork belly tastes fat but not greasy, the fragrance of preserved vegetables and a little pine nuts The mellow fragrance of the two flavors, added together, does not conflict at all, but complements each other.

As for the tomato scrambled eggs, which is popular in the north and south, the most important thing is to use the sour taste of the tomato itself to affect the egg cubes, while retaining the crispy aroma of the eggs. The combination of red and yellow is very beautiful.

Mustard pork shredded soup, Su Ling can make this dish himself. This is one of his favorite soups. The recipe is actually very simple. The soup I drank today is filled with tender shredded pork and marinated crispy mustard , It's salty enough without salt, the soup is well done, so it doesn't look cloudy at all, it's really an appetizing soup.

Su Ling ate two bowls in a row and drank two bowls of soup. Later, he was really full, so he put down his chopsticks reluctantly and didn't eat any more.

To be honest, he likes to eat something that he thinks is delicious until he doesn't want to eat it. This is a very funny habit of Su Ling.

Mr. Huo also ate a lot. Although six dishes and one soup were a bit too much for two people, the dishes were basically not wasted. In the end, there was not much left, and the meal was almost enough.

The two of them didn't talk much during the dinner. On the contrary, Boss Huo would sometimes help him pick up vegetables. Su Ling regarded this as a courtesy from him to fulfill his master's will, but then he probably was too "busy" to eat, and even the soup It was all done by Mr. Huo, so Su Ling felt a little embarrassed.

To be honest, although he is not a very independent person in "life", it is true that many things were done by the nanny and elder brother when he was young, but he is not a person who stretches out his clothes to eat and opens his mouth. Su Ling feels that he is taken care of like this Some indescribable feelings.

Although Su Ling can be regarded as a person who has been used to being taken care of since he was a child, when he grows up, especially after going to university and working, he does the laundry and room cleaning as a part-time job, and he does everything else by himself. Several girlfriends are the type who are not very good at doing housework, and the two of them basically go out to solve the problem of eating.When he was single, he also learned to cook some simple dishes, such as cooking noodles, cooking dumplings, boiling water, and so on, and gradually got started.

Nothing bad, not tired anyway.

So in the past few years, I have gotten used to taking care of myself, and it is really strange to be taken care of by others all of a sudden.

The care and concern from relatives is a natural process. Friends who have not known each other like Mr. Huo for a long time surprised Su Ling, and... a little moved.

Because Mr. Huo did it so naturally.

Su Ling always accepted it naturally at the time, but he would think more about it afterwards.

But there is no unacceptable feeling, it's just that there is such an idea in my heart.

It's because it feels so good, so I think about it.

But why?

Why does Mr. Huo know what he wants?

Every time he didn't think of it, he could think of it?

Even a little liking that he revealed was silently observed.

But really feel intimate.

Even friends who have been friends for many years may not have such a tacit understanding.

Su Ling glanced at Mr. Huo, and heard him say, "Just finished eating, let's go for a walk?"

Su Ling nodded.

Going outside, Mr. Huo said: "I met an official from the Ministry of Land and Resources at a meeting today, and told him about the recent construction of land information technology across the country. Talents are very scarce, and if construction is outsourced, there will be errors caused by ignorance of local conditions.”

Su Ling didn't speak, and listened to him continue.

"I thought at the time, this is an opportunity. In fact, the construction of information systems or platforms is not a problem. These are hard conditions, which can be easily satisfied by investing funds and personnel; I mainly see the differences between provinces. Now the above-mentioned policies are issued uniformly. But the situation is different in different provinces. My company has planned activities and assisted projects for the government before, but after all, it is still a macro aspect, and I don’t have much experience. It is enough to make enough scale and effect. If it is for a department, combined with professionals from university research institutes, It is a direction with great potential to make detailed planning for the department, and then supplement it with platform and electronic information construction."

Su Ling finally understood now. He was surprised by Mr. Huo's wide range of acquaintances, and was also impressed by his sharp and forward-looking analysis.

In fact, it’s not that Su Ling didn’t take over the software orders from local government agencies, but that’s how it ended later on. He didn’t think too far. It’s not that he didn’t know the hidden market in this area, but he just felt that he couldn’t find out the depth at the moment, coupled with domestic policies. Changes, staff changes, and relationships are easy to break. Su Ling didn't specialize in this area.

It's just that Mr. Huo can dig out so many things from a single conversation of an official. Su Ling really admires his market awareness and exploration ability. Mr. Huo is right, but this requires the support of strong government relations. Su Ling knows his strength It's very big, but he didn't expect him to have the ability to touch this blue ocean, which is not considered a blue ocean.

Su Ling said: "Mr. Huo, your analysis is very reasonable, but this idea may still need a certain amount of investigation data to support it. How to do it and where to start, can we have a more secure plan." Su Ling was very excited. Quickly understand, although Mr. Huo's words today are for business, but to a large extent, he also means to support himself. There are so many good software companies, and Su Ling's company is not the most experienced in this area, but Mr. Huo today Talk to him alone, just want to help him.

Mr. Huo glanced at him appreciatively: "Well, I called you here today mainly to discuss with you. If you are free recently, I want us to go and have a look by ourselves first. I have already For those with ideas, the pure consulting business can no longer be broadened in the face, I need more directions, and I think you are too."

Su Ling pondered for a while, and then said: "Mr. Huo, you are right. I have carefully read the report given to me by your company team today, and it is very consistent with what you told me last time. The next step is indeed to start Let's go, if you are willing to give me this opportunity, I think I will not let you down."

Mr. Huo said: "I believe in you, Su Ling, you are a very smart person. The reason why I choose you as my partner is because I hope for the future potential of your company. In fact, in the report I will give you today, It's all stylized stuff, do you want to hear my personal thoughts?"

Su Ling nodded, willing to listen to his opinion.

Mr. Huo said: "Your company structure is still very clear, and the personnel structure is quite reasonable. The most important thing is that you didn't make the mistake of shelving it after finishing it. Judging from your company's case, you are constantly summing up, which makes me very happy. Appreciation, the company's development speed is also within a reasonable range, and it has not blindly accepted strategic investment. Of course, this will cause problems in your company's capital chain to a certain extent. This time I also intend to try to let someone help you slowly solve it This question. If you do it slowly, I feel quite confident. So I told you last time not to worry too much."

Su Ling said: "I was really anxious before, but after reading the report today, I feel that there is still a lot of room for adjustment, and it is not as rigid as I thought before. Speaking of this, I haven't thanked you very much, Mr. Huo , this time is really thanks to you for taking so much trouble for our company."

Mr. Huo said: "Don't be so polite. We will be partners in the future. I hope to win-win. In fact, doing business is not difficult. Your company has already gone through a certain stage, and there is always a stage and process of transformation in the development period. , I hope I can spend this stage with you. This is also a rare experience for me. As far as consulting is concerned, what we have done in the past is mature expansion ideas, such as providing a single national brand Support or company expansion blueprint planning, I also hope to make a comprehensive mid-to-long-term case through your company, which also requires your trust and cooperation to do well." Speaking of this, Mr. Huo looked at Su Ling with a smile. "Will you trust me, Su Ling?"
