Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 221 Checking out and freeloading

After dinner and wine, the matter was settled. Although the wedding date has not been decided, the marriage relationship between Liu Jinbo and Feng Xin has been recognized by both families.

In today's social climate, the social impact of being detained for unmarried cohabitation is very shocking. If you don't get married and find someone later, the treatment will be similar to that of a second marriage.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, everyone should disperse. As the host, Liu Yongliang naturally had to say goodbye to everyone one by one. As for the remaining work of sending people off, Liu Jinbo had to do it.

After opening a supermarket, Liu Jinbo learned how to be open-minded. Instead of sending people home in person, he stopped a few taxis and gave each taxi two yuan, which was enough money to get them home.

As for whether he got off the car in the middle, Liu Jinbo didn't care. Anyway, he felt that the trick he learned from Li Weidong would definitely make Feng Xin's parents look good, and he would be satisfied if he had good face.

But Feng Xin also left, and he felt a little lost. Men and women in love want to stay together every day, and it feels wrong to be apart for a while.

When he returned to the hotel, he saw Liu Yongliang about to pay, so he ran over and asked to pay himself.

"Dad, just let me do it!" Liu Jinbo thought that since he could make money, he wouldn't have to spend his parents' money anymore.

"Nonsense, what do you know!" Liu Yongliang felt relieved that his son was older and it was hard for him to say harsh words.

"Don't talk nonsense, this money can only be made by your father!" Yang Limei and the old man have a common understanding. This understanding exists in the hearts of many parents. It is a responsibility and mission to help their sons start a family.

The cashier looked at the bill and quoted the number. Liu Yongliang and his son were a little surprised and thought there was a mistake.

Liu Yongliang asked: "Why are there so few rooms for three and a half dollars upstairs? Is it a miscalculation?"

"Sir, this is your menu. The boss ordered me to give you a 20% discount!" The waiter was a little confused. Isn't it bad to pay less? There are people who dislike asking for less money. This is the first time he has encountered this.

Liu Yongliang and his wife looked at the menu, then glanced at each other to understand what was going on, and then handed the menu to Liu Jinbo. This was a favor that Liu Jinbo should know.

"This menu is wrong, isn't it? The lobster, abalone and other seafood are not included...!" Liu Jinbo realized as he said this. His brother-in-law said it was really free when he said it was free.

He didn't see Li Weidong when he turned around. His old man understood earlier than he did and had already started to pay.

Li Weidong cannot pay for this meal anyway, he can only work hard on the dishes. It is completely reasonable for my father-in-law to come to dinner and bring a few dishes.

No one can find fault. You can't really treat someone else's wedding as a guest.

The person who paid this money must be Liu Jinbo himself or his parents, otherwise it would be unclear.

At this time, Li Weidong was drinking sober tea and chatting in the general manager's office.

"How are you lately? Is the branch opening going smoothly? This store is quite lively. I see there are many people in the system eating there?" Li Weidong sat on the boss's chair with his legs crossed.

"The branch is opening very smoothly, but recently some companies have started to owe bills when they come to eat at our place. They are all from nearby government offices. We don't dare to be too tough. Are we worried?"

Li Weidong also scratched his head. This kind of situation will definitely happen in China. It is better in big cities. Some small places can directly bankrupt a prosperous restaurant.

When people within the system come to eat, it will naturally make the hotel prosperous. Without these units, the hotel will definitely be deserted, but the problem will arise. It is almost like freeloading.

Regardless of whether you are a joint venture or not, you are doing business here, why don't you come for a meal? It's not that I won't give you money, it's just that the time hasn't come yet, and it will be given to you when the time comes. As for the time, who knows?

It would be better if credit cards were popularized. If you swipe them out, you can still use them for a period of time before repaying them after they are reimbursed. But now there is no trace of credit cards.

"In this way, privately find those who signed the orders and tell them that we have a pre-deposit cashback activity. As for the amount of the refund, you will decide based on the profits!"

"You don't have to worry about where the cashback money goes. This will allow them to become your salespersons and your debt settlement personnel!"

"Brother, if this is the case, we will suffer a lot of losses!" Guo Huai understood the truth, but he did not dare or could not say such an idea of ​​losing the boss's interests.

"How can this be called a loss? It's not unprofitable, it's just making less money. This is called marketing cost. If you retain the customers, you will earn back your money sooner or later!"

"Also, I see you are equipped with a computer, and the cashier below is also equipped with a membership system. Those who top up money are members, and they can get discounts, use large private rooms, get cakes for birthdays, etc.!"

"We need to retain customers and make them rely on you to make purchases! The Internet will be available in two years, and you need to build a nationwide network. Anyone who has a Four Seasons Hotel membership can use it!"

Li Weidong drank sober tea and talked about a lot of business methods for future generations, but these are easier said than done and require execution. He is the boss, so if he says it, someone will do it.

Li Weidong saw a stack of newspapers on the table turned over. Some of them were obviously brand new and had not been read at all. He raised his head and glanced at Guo Huai.

"Brother, this newspaper is imposed by the post office. Maybe subscribing is not enough. Why don't I just put it here? Who has time to read the newspaper!" Guo Huai explained without understanding what Li Weidong meant.

"I have time to read the newspaper. I have said it before. To read the newspaper, you need to study. Look, your newspapers are all new!" Li Weidong said casually, which scared Guo Huai.

He really forgot about this matter. Li Weidong used to have the habit of reading newspapers wherever he went. Recently, he was no longer with Li Weidong, so he almost forgot about it.

Li Weidong did not look at Guo Huai's face, but an editorial in the People's Daily discussing the world pattern after the formal establishment of the European Union.

Only then did Li Weidong know that the European Union was officially established today. The previous May Treaty was just a preparatory establishment. He thought that the European Union already existed. No wonder the world didn't talk about the European Union!

To think that he has earned so much money from the UK because of this treaty, and still knows little about the EU, it is really the ignorant who are fearless, which strengthens his perseverance in reading newspapers!

Today's newspapers are much better than the Internet in later generations. At least some negative and false news will not be spread. Reading newspapers at least exposes you to positive energy.

Shaking his head, Li Weidong put down the newspaper and said: "You must always subscribe to the newspaper and read every issue. How can you do good business without reading newspapers? How can you do business if you don't understand the general trend!"

"Okay, I won't chat with you anymore. It's time for me to go back. The child is still at home!" Li Weidong stood up and said, and then walked out of the general manager's office.

Guo Huai said: "Brother, you have been drinking and it is inconvenient to drive. I will take you back!"

"Forget it, I'm just a free man. I'll walk back with your sister-in-law later and let Xie Ming drive the car back!" Li Weidong walked towards the stairs.

While waiting for the elevator, Li Weidong asked casually: "Are they still unwilling to sell this building?"

"I've asked several times, but it's not easy to deal with. Our lease contract is for ten years, and there will be certain changes every year. It's not expensive!"

Li Weidong had ideas about this building, but Guo Huai didn't have much money, so he was naturally not so active. Moreover, it was a state-owned asset and was difficult to deal with.

Li Weidong didn't say anything else. He couldn't worry about such things anymore. Although he planned to use his own real estate in the hotel and shopping mall, it was a bit unrealistic. Maybe the hotel didn't open, and he became the largest tenant.

"Brother-in-law, my sister is looking for you!" As soon as he came up the stairs, Liu Jinbo came out and saw Li Weidong and said.
