rebirth from small pockets

Chapter 191 School Opening Report

We had dinner that day in Quanjude again.

This was Liu Jianjun's suggestion. Although Chen Li suggested changing to another restaurant, Liu Jianjun felt that Quanjude was a time-honored restaurant and eating at such a place could express Erlong Town's gratitude to Deng Weimin.

Liu Jianjun is not Deng Weimin, nor is he Chen Li's father.

In Liu Jianjun's mind, Chen Li was just a college student with some potential. Therefore, Chen Li's suggestion was simply ignored by Liu Jianjun.

Although Chen Li helped to arrange Snow Beer's charity donation to Erlong Town before, in Liu Jianjun's heart, the main contributor to this matter was Deng Weimin.

As for Chen Li, in fact, in Liu Jianjun's heart, Chen Li's future achievements cannot even keep up with his own daughter.

After all, the signboard of Yenching University is there, and Liu Qingqing is the city's number one scholar. No matter what the name is, Chen Li, the Yenching University of Foreign Studies, cannot compare.

This is actually a kind of prejudice, but there are quite a few people who have this kind of prejudice these days.

Huaqing University and Yanda University, these two universities have a very high status in the minds of Chinese people these days.

Especially at this time, the university has not yet expanded its enrollment. Basically, as long as you can get into these two universities, you will have an extremely bright future.

As for Chen Li, he is indeed very good, but he is still a little bit less interesting.

This also led to a rather embarrassing situation during this meal!

Liu Jianjun has always been very enthusiastic about Deng Weimin, but Deng Weimin has always greeted Chen Li, and Chen Li has always taken care of Liu Qingqing.

In short, Liu Jianjun is putting his hot face on a cold butt.

Because in Deng Weimin's eyes, Liu Jianjun was really not a distinguished guest.

If Liu Jianjun was not brought here by Chen Li, Deng Weimin would not have agreed to Liu Jianjun's invitation at all.

After all, he is so busy, where can he have time to eat with Liu Jianjun?

So in the end, this dinner, which was originally meant to thank Deng Weimin, allowed Liu Jianjun to refresh his sense of Chen Li again.

So that night, Liu Jianjun even asked his daughter a question.

"Chen Li's father is really just the keeper of the grain station?"

Yes~! In Liu Jianjun's view, Deng Weimin's attitude towards Chen Li was actually abnormal.

After all, Liu Jianjun didn't know how much benefits Chen Li's "making suggestions" to help Deng Weimin brought to Mr. Deng.

Comrade Liu Jianjun subconsciously believed that the reason why Chen Li was so valued by Deng Weimin might be due to Chen Li's family background.

In fact, Liu Jianjun cannot be blamed for having such an idea.

Because for him, only this explanation can be more consistent with his cognition.

Whether it is Deng Weimin's attitude towards Chen Li or Deng Weimin's desire to recruit Chen Li to work part-time at Snowflake, this reason can be used to explain it.

After all, in Liu Jianjun's view, Deng Weimin used a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan to recruit Chen Li to do part-time work. The part-time job was no different from giving money to Chen Li.

Liu Jianjun has seen situations like this before, and such people are not a minority in some companies.

Most of these people have certain connections and backgrounds in their families, and the so-called job is actually just a name.

Liu Qingqing felt a little confused, but she nodded obediently.

"Well! Uncle Chen used to be a custodian at a grain station! But now he goes to Old Man Li Yuan's construction site to manage materials."

"What's wrong?"

After finishing speaking, Liu Qingqing looked at her father with a puzzled face. At this time, she didn't understand what her old man meant by his words.

"Nothing! Okay, you should go to bed early! We will climb the Great Wall tomorrow."

Liu Jianjun shook his head. In fact, he also knew that his guess was a bit nonsense.

After all, if Chen Guofu really had any background, he wouldn't have stayed at the gradually desolate grain station.

Although Chen Guofu has now left the grain station, managing materials on the construction site seems not as good as staying at the grain station.

After all, the grain station is a state-owned unit. Although the current efficiency is somewhat poor, as long as the agricultural tax is not abolished, the grain station will not fail.

At this moment, Liu Jianjun naturally could not have imagined that just a few years later, the agricultural tax would be cancelled.

On the second day after arriving in Yanjing, Liu Jianjun, accompanied by Liu Qingqing, visited several scenic spots in Yanjing.

Because Liu Qingqing had already been there once, Chen Li did not accompany him. But this time, even Huang Biao was left behind by Chen Li.

Chen Li contacted a kitchenware store that Huang Biao had contacted before and purchased a complete set of frying kitchenware from the other party.

Without some automation, the price of this kitchenware suddenly became very low, from tens of thousands of yuan to several thousand yuan.

This is because Chen Li chose brand products, otherwise the price would be lower.

Chen Li spent two days shopping for kitchen utensils, freezers, and kitchen appliances.

Fortunately, Huang Biao's stay in the capital this month was not in vain. Although his communication skills are a bit poor, he has a good partner.

Under the leadership of Xiao Zhang, Huang Biao has already explored the related items needed to open a fried chicken restaurant this month.

Just wait for Chen Li to make a decision, and then just wait for the workers to come to deliver and install it.

Chen Li divided the small store into two parts.

The front is the business area, and the preparation of fried chicken burgers is completed directly in the front business area.

At the back is the kitchen and storage area, where ingredients are cleaned and stored every day.

The only drawback is that the store is too small, both the business area and the kitchen area are not large.

This is why Chen Li rented a large house with three bedrooms and one living room to Huang Biao.

In fact, the fried chicken restaurant is very small. Apart from Huang Biao, the "chef", it only needs one or two employees.

Chen Li has already hung a recruitment notice on the rolling shutter door of the store.

These days, there is no need to worry about not being able to recruit people. After all, Chen Li is not a shady boss, and the salary he offers cannot be said to be generous, but it is definitely not small.

After all, he hired cashiers and handymen. In fact, this position was originally reserved by Chen Li for his brother-in-law and aunt.

However, Chen Li's father refused Wang Jianjun's move to follow Chen Li to Beijing on the grounds that Chen Li's shop was not on track.

Chen Guofu's reasons are very good. It doesn't matter if Chen Li loses money in business, Wang Jianjun cannot make money to support his family.

Chen Li's mother also had the same suggestion, which made Chen Li a little helpless, but he had to admit that his parents' considerations were not unreasonable.

Although Chen Li had successfully opened a kebab shop before, it was in the small county town of Huilong.

And now the place where Chen Li opens his store is Yanjing!

This is Yanjing and cannot be compared to the small county town of Huilong.

To be on the safe side, let's wait until Chen Li's store has established a firm foothold before thinking about other things.

Chen Li was speechless about this, because what his parents said actually made sense.

Although Chen Li feels that he will definitely succeed, it does not mean that others will think so.

Therefore, Chen Li needs to recruit people!

But it was in this matter that he thought was very simple that Chen Li encountered difficulties.

In his previous life, Chen Li also recruited people, and even hired many people.

It's just that at that time, Chen Li recruited all beauties, mainly based on their looks.

But now when recruiting people, we can’t just look at looks.

"Brother Li~! I think the girl who came for the interview this morning is very good!"

Obviously, Huang Biao didn't think so. This guy still wanted Chen Li to recruit a beautiful girl to be his partner!

"Get out~!"

"The one in the morning doesn't look like he can endure hardship."

"Although our fried chicken restaurant doesn't have much hard work, the smell of oil smoke is inevitable when making fried food. That girl probably won't be able to cook for long."

Chen Li rolled his eyes! He naturally understood what Huang Biao was thinking.

The girl who came for the interview in the morning was probably only a 7 in terms of appearance, but with makeup and dressing up, she suddenly improved her appearance to an 8.5.

If Chen Li opened a teahouse, cake shop, coffee shop or other business establishment, then such a girl would be quite suitable to be a cashier.

But in a fried chicken restaurant, especially a small fried chicken restaurant like this, a girl like that is obviously not suitable.

What Chen Li wants to recruit at this moment are employees who can bear hardships and stand hard work, and are not vases who rely on their appearance to attract attention.

If the business is stable in the future, it is not impossible to hire such a fried chicken beauty, but now is obviously not the time.

Chen Li looked at the worker who was installing the range hood in the store, took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to Huang Biao.

"Keep your eyes peeled and send smoke rings to the masters."

"I'll go to the other side and give my name first."

Today is August 30th, and major universities in Yanjing have already started registration.

Liu Qingqing had already gone to Yanda accompanied by Liu Jianjun. Chen Li originally wanted to follow, but was persuaded to leave by Liu Jianjun.

Okay~! The rest of my life is very long, and Chen Li will not seize the day.

With the admission notice in hand, as well as the procedures and documents for relocating his household registration, Chen Li went directly to the other side of the road.

After walking around half a circle, we reached the main entrance of Yanjing International Studies University.

Banners have already been hung here, and people are coming and going at the gate of the campus.

Most people are either carrying luggage or accompanied by their parents. There are some empty-handed people like Chen Li, but most of them are seniors from the school.

"Is this your school?"

"It looks pretty big!"

Comments about Yenching University of Foreign Studies came from passersby. Chen Li turned his head and looked at the parent who was speaking, speechless.

This parent is just talking nonsense, otherwise he will go back to college.

You must know that Yenching University of Foreign Studies is known as the smallest 211 school in Yenching.

Compared with the Polytechnic University opposite, the size of the University of Foreign Studies is really not worth mentioning.

Chen Li entered the University of Foreign Studies with a swagger, holding the notice and household registration procedures in his hand.

There are banners and signs on the campus, and Chen Li only needs to follow them to get to the freshman reporting office.

Just when Chen Li was about to arrive at the freshman reporting office to go through the formalities, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder.

"Hallo~!"

Chen Li turned around and saw a tall, long-legged and fair-skinned Western beauty.

Uh. It looks familiar!

Immediately, Chen Lili remembered that he had indeed seen this girl. Isn't this the German-speaking girl he met in a taxi in front of the store two days ago?

"Uh~hi!"

Chen Li didn't know whether to speak to this girl in German or English for a moment. In the end, he could only say "hi" using international greeting words!

"You are indeed a student at the University of Foreign Studies!"

"Let me introduce you, I am Hannah, from Frankfurt am Main."

The girl stretched out her hand towards Chen Li, but Chen Li felt a little helpless about Hannah's name.

The reason why Chen Li was helpless was because the Ultraman in his system space introduced himself as Hannah every time he practiced German with him!

No way, that's what it's called in the textbook.

Although Ultraman turned into a beautiful woman, Chen Li should be happy, but after hearing Ultraman say it so many times, Chen Li always felt a little weird.

But in the end, Chen Li also extended his hand and spoke in fluent Chinese.

"Chen Li~!"
