Qu Lianjie thought that he was indeed a little busy recently. He couldn't come back on the same day even if he went back to his hometown. Then he thought for a moment and said:
"Let's do this. When the time comes, you can drive my car back, and you won't have to take the train!"
"No need..." Qu Lianshun subconsciously refused.
When Qu Lianjie saw this, he interrupted him:
"Brother Shunzi, let's not argue. I don't drive this car very much. Having a car will make it easier for you to go back, and the children will suffer less!"
"Okay, I'm causing trouble for you~" Qu Lianshun felt that everyone said this, and if he didn't accept it, he would be a bit confused.
The three of them chatted while eating, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Especially when Qu Lianjie mentioned the cuteness of his nephew Qu Zeyang, Qu Lianshun and his wife's faces were filled with happy smiles.
Afterwards, Qu Lianjie took the initiative to chat about work matters:
"Brother Shunzi, how do you feel about this newly recruited driver? Will he obey your management?"
"You underestimate your Brother Shunzi too much. I was a squad leader in the army back then, and I had eight or nine top soldiers under me!"
Qu Lianshun may have had a little drink, and there was a hint of arrogance in his tone of voice because he felt that when he was the squad leader in the army, it was the most glorious moment in his life.
At this time, Qi Hong smiled and interjected:
"Lianjie, you don't know that now your brother, the purchasing manager who only cares for one person, is doing a decent job!"
"The new driver, Xiao Wang, also served in the military and was discharged last year. And by coincidence, they are both from the same army, so the two of them get along very well now. Xiao Wang has always called your brother the squad leader!"
Qu Lianjie felt very interesting after hearing this and laughed out loud: "Hahaha, that's good!"
Then another thing came to mind, Qu Lianjie said to the two of them half jokingly and half seriously:
"When these two branches open in a while, my brother Shunzi will no longer be responsible for just one person, and his purchasing department will definitely grow and develop accordingly!"
"When the time comes, sister-in-law, you have to keep an eye on me for Brother Shunzi, otherwise I won't be abducted by those little girls in the store!"
In fact, Qu Lianjie said this just in case. After all, he brought it out to their family, so don't end up doing bad things with good intentions.
"If that's the case, then it's my own fault for not being attractive. Hurry up and make room for the newcomer!" Qi Hong's answer was very high in emotional intelligence, and this sentence was considered to be enough to give her husband face.
Qu Lianshun was naturally very happy when he heard his wife say this, and at the same time he quickly expressed his loyalty:
"Honey, even though I have this evil heart, I don't have the courage to do so. If I really dare to do this, my dad will kick me out of the house!"
After hearing this, Qu Lianjie directly joked:
"Brother Shunzi, it's not right for you to be thief!"
"Huh?" Qi Hong also turned her head very cooperatively, staring at her husband expressionlessly, pretending to be very angry.
"Uh, honey, you know that's not what I meant. I..." Qu Lianshun was speechless for a moment, nervously touching his knee subconsciously.
"Hahaha, okay, just teasing you!" Qi Hong couldn't stand it anymore and laughed out loud, which was considered as giving her husband a step forward.
Seeing this, Qu Lianshun stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his head, and said with a shocked look on his face:
"It scared me to death. I thought you were really angry. You scared me so much that I woke up. I have to drink another drink to calm down the shock!"
"Drink, drink, it's all up to you, as if I'm harming you by not letting you drink!" Qi Hong said helplessly.
Qu Lianjie also laughed a little, and then made some suggestions to the couple while eating:
"Brother Shunzi, your education is still a bit low. You should pay more attention to your studies. It's best to improve your academic qualifications!"
Qu Lianshun got a headache when he heard the word "study" and said with a troubled face:
"Lianjie, is this necessary? You also know that your brother has not been a student since he was a child!"
After hearing this, Qu Lianjie put down his chopsticks and said in a serious tone:
"Brother Shunzi, as more and more branches open in the future, a company will definitely be established for unified management. By then, it will be difficult for you to advance further with your academic qualifications!"
Qi Hong's mind turned quickly and she understood what Qu Lianjie meant. It basically made it clear that if someone wants to promote you, you won't be able to do anything about it if you don't have enough academic qualifications.
So she stretched out her hand and pinched her husband, and said with an expression of hatred:
"Lian Jie is doing this for your own good. Just listen. I remember you said before that when you were in the army, our dad got you a technical secondary school diploma."
"Yes, that's the case!" Qu Lianshun nodded.
When Qu Lianjie heard this, he was a little surprised at first, and then said with a relaxed expression:
"It will be easier if you have a diploma from a technical secondary school. I'll find someone to help you later and see if you can get a correspondence college or something!"
Qu Lianshun naturally knew what was good and what was good. If it weren't for Fa Xiaojia's relatives, there would be no need for Qu Lianshun to tell him this.
So he said with a grateful face: "Then I will cause trouble to you, Lian Jie!"
"I really don't know how to thank you. You have helped our family so much!" Qi Hong sounded excited.
Qu Lianjie smiled and waved his hand:
"It's okay, this is nothing. What's our relationship? It's too foreign to say this!"
…
A few days passed after the Lantern Festival, and the decoration of the branch was on track. On this day, Qu Lianjie lent his car to Qu Lianshun to go back to his hometown, so he didn't run around. He just went to an advertising agency not far away. Checked it out.
After that, he returned to the main store and sat in the office all morning. Qu Lianjie felt that it was not interesting, so he called Wang Xu.
After the call was connected, we greeted each other as usual:
"Eldest son, are you busy today?"
Wang Xu was naturally not to be outdone:
"Your father is not busy today. If you have anything to do, you will report it early. If you have nothing to do, you will leave the court!"
Qu Lianjie smiled into the phone and said:
"If you're not busy, come to my shop and let's have a drink. It's just the two of us today. We haven't seen each other for more than a month. We must have a good drink!"
Wang Xu thought for a moment that there was indeed nothing to do today, so he agreed:
"Okay then, I'll go find you~"
After hanging up the phone, Qu Lianjie stood up and went to the front desk downstairs to ask store manager Zhao Mei to help find a quieter private room. Then he sat on a chair in the private room and waited for his friend to arrive.
After waiting for less than 20 minutes, Qu Lianjie saw Wang Xu being brought in by Zhao Mei herself. The two friends hugged each other and said hello.
After sitting down, Qu Lianjie ordered Zhao Mei who was standing aside:
"Mr. Zhao, let's have a mandarin duck pot with some meat, vegetables and so on. Let the chef prepare two cold dishes. Finally, bring over the two bottles of wine that I treasure!"
"Okay, Mr. Qu~" Zhao Mei said, stepping on her high heels, turned around and left the private room.
After all, the boss ordered all kinds of dishes to arrive very quickly. Qu Lianjie and Wang Xu chatted while eating. After a while, they had already downed a pound of liquor. Just when they were about to open the second bottle, they heard a burst of sound. knocking.
Then I saw Qi Hong opening the door of the box, walking in and saying anxiously:
"Mr. Qu, it's bad, there is a group of people making trouble downstairs. After eating, they insist that our meat is not fresh, even if they don't give up the order, they insist on asking us to pay 5,000 yuan for mental damage!"
"Store manager Zhao can't hold it anymore. Let me come up and ask you to see how to solve it~"
