Top of the big era

Father Meng frowned, puzzled, and asked, "You are still students, and you are also a milk tea shop and a convenience store. If you don't study hard, what are you doing?"

Meng Houkun said unconvinced: "There are ten people in our core team, and each of them has a group of people under him. We carry out at the same time... Forget it, it's useless to talk so much. You analyze and analyze the milk tea shop for me. Don't tell me. I don't understand you either."

"What did you say?"

"If you don't understand, Bai has been in the officialdom for so many years... Oops! Dad, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, don't kick me..."

In the study, Meng Houkun was kicked several times.

Father Meng taught his son a lesson, and his complexion improved. He hummed, "Have you read history?"

"That's for sure."

"Emperors in ancient times liked to use corrupt officials. Why?"

"ah?"

Meng Houkun stretched his neck, with a strange expression on his face, "Dad, what are you going to say? Just say it straight, don't lecture."

Father Meng choked with anger, gave him a hard look, and said in a deep voice, "There are many benefits to employing corrupt officials, and the most important one is to consolidate power."

"What?"

Meng Houkun was a little hard to understand, and said impatiently: "Dad, don't be a fool, I told you, I'm not in politics, it's useless for you to teach me these things."

Father Meng really hated that iron cannot be made into steel, so he had to make a long story short: "The ancient emperors, as long as they were not too stupid, knew who was a corrupt official and who was an upright official. However, those who held important positions were often corrupt officials, and upright officials at most served as officials in the Imperial Academy. Some words are clear."

"why?"

"Because the emperor has a lot of handles on corrupt officials. This makes corrupt officials more conscientious when they do their jobs. In fact, it is the same. Corrupt officials are corrupt, but their working ability is much better than those of Confucius and Mencius."

"oh."

Meng Houkun blinked, thoughtful.

Father Meng continued: "In ancient times, the power of the prime minister could restrict the power of the emperor. This kind of thing was very common in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and also in the Song and Ming Dynasties. If the prime minister is an upright official with no merit, praised by hundreds of officials, and famous, the constraints on the emperor will be even greater. Even shake the imperial power."

Meng Houkun quickly said: "Yes, Wang Mang."

"Many famous figures in history suppressed imperial power. Therefore, in order to consolidate his throne, the emperor was often very cautious in the choice of ministers. Corrupt officials are often the best choice. Apart from the fact that corrupt officials are usually more capable , the more important thing is the lack of threat to the emperor. Once the imperial power is threatened, the death penalty can be imposed, and the officials will not object, but will shout, "My emperor is holy, and all people praise it."

"Well, Emperor Jiajing and Yan Song, Emperor Qianlong and Heshen. If things are done well, the emperor will receive credit. If things go wrong, the treacherous ministers will be blamed."

"right."

Father Meng nodded, and then looked at his son, "Do you understand now? What is Zhou Buqi's method?"

Meng Houkun was startled, and almost slipped from the sofa to the floor, "Dad? What are you talking about? Zhou Buqi is playing the emperor technique? Are you flattering him too much? How can you be so exaggerated?"

Father Meng shook his head and said, "It's not an imperial technique, it's very normal...a means of dealing with interpersonal relationships."

"this……"

Meng Houkun was a little unbelievable, "But Zhou Buqi has almost completely delegated power, and Liu Wenbo is in charge of the milk tea shop."

Father Meng said: "Didn't you say, Jiajing and Yan Song, forgot? Not showing up doesn't mean not taking power. Let's put it this way, what do you think is the core thing of your milk tea shop?"

Meng Houkun said proudly: "Of course it's the supply chain, I'm in charge."

Father Meng pointed out: "You are half right. The core business of your milk tea shop is personnel affairs and logistics. With personnel rights, you can appoint store managers for each store and make salary budgets. With the logistics department , there is a supply chain, and equipment, formulas, and raw materials are all in hand.”

Meng Houkun opened his eyes wide and took a deep breath, "These two departments are in charge of Xue Baoshan!"

"Understood now?" Father Meng glanced at him with a half-smile.

Meng Houkun hesitated and said: "No, but the four businesses that Liu Wenbo is in charge of are also very important, finance, marketing, security and new store expansion."

"Okay, I'll tell you one by one."

"Finance, this is a sensitive topic. Exorbitant taxes are very heavy now, and the tax reform plan is raised every year. In my country's catering industry, one counts as one, and no one has a clean book. For example, your milk tea shop sells 1,000 cups a day or 100 cups , How do the tax authorities check? Isn’t it just as much as you said you sold?”

"Marketing, this is the biggest problem in running a milk tea shop. Can Liu Wenbo do a good job? Just you few college students, I guess that kid Zhou Buqi has a little thinking. Liu Wenbo's taking charge of this business will only make him very embarrassed. When he can't handle it, Zhou Buqi will come forward to solve it."

"Security, this is something that offends people. Once something goes wrong, you have to deal with the school, which is thankless. Do you think this is the core business?"

"The expansion of the new store is even more ridiculous. Don't forget, the power of personnel is in the hands of others. Liu Wenbo has worked so hard to open the new store, so what? He opened the store at the front, and someone else sent someone to take it over... "

Meng Houkun was completely shocked!

Fuck!

That's okay too?

Is it too dark?

Especially the last one, it's chilling to the bone. Yes, Liu Wenbo is working hard to plan the Tsinghua store, full of ambition and high spirits.

But so what?

The personnel rights are in charge of Xue Baoshan.

When the Tsinghua store opened, Xue Baoshan directly arranged for her people to seize the fruits of victory.

Fuck!

Too cruel! It's too insidious!

How can ordinary college students react to this kind of routine? Even Liu Wenbo was dazedly intoxicated by it, thinking that he was being reused.

In fact, before anyone knew it, Zhou Buqi set him up.

Meng Houkun shuddered, he couldn't believe it, he opened his eyes wide and said, "Dad, what you said...could it be a coincidence? Zhou Buqi is only eighteen years old, can he think so deeply?"

Father Meng snorted coldly, "If he was as naive as you, more than half of the milk tea shop would have been carved up. It's a coincidence, do you think it's a coincidence? Why do you think he kept Liu Wenbo on purpose?"

Meng Houkun's throat was dry, and he swallowed hard, "Dad, why do I feel so horrible."

"Do you think that being in business is cleaner than being in politics?" Father Meng took a deep look at his son, and tried to persuade him again.

Meng Houkun immediately shook his head: "No, I'm not in politics!" After a pause, he asked again: "Dad, you said that the emperor loves to use corrupt officials, so what should I do? I don't have those messy thoughts."

Father Meng waved his hand and said calmly: "Just do what you want, don't worry so much. There are still some differences between business and politics. You are now in the early stage of starting a business, the team has just been established, and Zhou Buqi's personal authority is not enough. If it is stable, he must adopt some special measures. After a long time, you have made a lot of money, and no one can threaten his status and shares, then it will be fine."

Meng Houkun breathed a sigh of relief, and patted his chest, "That's it, it's okay, it's okay."

Zhou Buqi's calculations against Liu Wenbo, if he didn't have a talk with his father, he probably wouldn't be able to figure it out for the rest of his life.

"Dad, what do you think Zhou Buqi will do with Liu Wenbo?"

"What do you say?"

"I don't know. Liu Wenbo is in charge of the milk tea shop now. He is really good at managing the milk tea shop. He is really capable. I'm afraid it's a ticking time bomb."

"When the expansion of the milk tea shop is on the right track and the business is stable, it's time to kill the donkey."

"Ah? That's a hero."

"There will always be a way, and it depends on how the kid handles it." Father Meng thought for a while, and sighed softly, "The current college students are really amazing. He can play this kind of trick, just watch, he The handling of Liu Wenbo will definitely be beautiful."

Meng Houkun nodded, and gave a soft "hmm", "I understand, that's it, you can be busy, I'm going back to school."

"Going back so late?"

"Well……"

"To see your girlfriend?"

"ah?"

Meng Houkun's eyes widened, "How do you know I have a girlfriend? Are you spying on me?"

Father Meng said angrily, "I am your father!"

Meng Houkun was very angry, gritted his teeth, and nodded, "By the way, just now you told me that the emperor always appointed corrupt officials in order to consolidate power. I think it makes sense. Dad, let me ask you, when you promote your subordinates, you promote clean officials. Or corrupt officials?"

"Um?"

Father Meng's eyes widened suddenly, his face was ashen, furious, and he shouted a word from his throat: "Get out!"

Meng Houkun ran away in a hurry, feeling that he was better, and secretly proud of himself.

But when he thought of Zhou Buqi, he became discouraged again.

The same is a college student, why is the gap so big?

...

Now, there are three rooms in the University Student Activity Center belonging to Zhou Buqi.

201 is his office and also the conference room of the Entrepreneurship Alliance.

202 is the technology research and development department, and there is a temporary warehouse downstairs.

All the desks, chairs, sofas, computers, switches, servers, and other equipment were provided by the school, and were moved by the school's student union.

This incident naturally attracted the attention of the student union.

You know, Beike's BBS forum is managed by the study department of the school's student union.

Li Hongrui led the team himself.

The meaning is very clear, he hopes to arrange the technical center of the BBS forum here.

Why?

Because there is a 5M dedicated line broadband, free of charge. Not only that, the water and electricity bills are free, and there are high-performance computers provided by the school.

It will save the learning department a lot of operating expenses for the forum.

The school student union is menacing.

Fortunately, Guo Pengfei wasn't a fuel-efficient guy either. As a man of the hour at Beike, his influence was comparable to that of a mere vice-minister of the study department.

Immediately, he didn't give Li Hongrui a good face, and flatly refused.

Li Hongrui said with a cold face: "Guo Pengfei, let me tell you, I represent the student union of the school and all the students in the school. Please think carefully about it!"

"On behalf of the whole school? Who are you?" Guo Pengfei looked contemptuous and sneered, "Don't interfere with our work, get out!"
