On the third day after Wang arrived in the capital, he made an appointment with his brother and sister, and the family gathered together for dinner. The venue was Su Meng's restaurant.
Guan Xiaoguan's plane landed in the morning and arrived at the company at noon to hand over work to Yang Xue.
Yang Xue told Guan Xiaoguan about the old man's will, but she didn't take it to heart at all and laughed it off.
"It doesn't matter if you donate your grandpa's collection, it will just gather dust if you keep it at home. It's better to put it in a museum for people to visit, and grandpa can still gain a good reputation." Guan Xiaoguan said.
"You and your brother-in-law really want to go together." Yang Xue said with a smile: "He also said that since the old man doesn't want to exchange his things for money, it is better to exchange for some reputation."
Guan Xiaoguan worriedly said: "If my parents don't agree, I'll talk to them later."
Yang Xue said: "Your mother is very excited, but your father is okay. He is worried about your brother-in-law's strength, so he can only break his teeth and swallow it."
Guan Xiaoguan shook his head and said with a smile: "My dad has always bullied the weak and feared the strong."
After Yang Xue finished talking about personal matters, she began to explain official matters.
"In the future, our Yang family will shift our sales focus to the south, so you must be prepared to suffer."
"Don't worry, Sister Xue, I will definitely complete the mission!" Guan Xiaoguan said puzzledly: "It's just that the market in the south is not saturated yet, so we went to the north. Isn't it a bit risky?"
Yang Xue explained: "The rise of Yuzhu Group in recent years has taken away a lot of our business."
Guan Xiaoguan hummed and said: "Luo Yuzhu and Chen Jianghe are really not the same thing. I think they were our Yang's dealers at the beginning. I didn't expect to use Yang's brand to develop our own brand."
Ten years ago, Wang Gang cooperated with Chen Jianghe, letting him represent Yang's products and developing him as a dealer.
But Chen Jianghe was very ambitious. While selling Yang's products, he was also promoting his own Yuzhu brand. Unexpectedly, he would actually break out of the way.
The Yang family has grown more than ten times in recent years, but the Yuzhu Group is not lagging behind and is gradually catching up, becoming Yang's biggest rival in the south.
Yang Xue once thought about dealing with Chen Jianghe and Luo Yuzhu, but was stopped by Wang Gang.
Wang Gang felt that the domestic market was huge and there was no need to focus on the southern region. Yang could take the opportunity to develop the northern market.
Because the South was the first to open up, its economic development has always been stronger than that in the North. However, as the North successively opened up, its economy also developed, and it was completely undeveloped fertile ground.
Instead of fighting to the death with the Yuzhu Group and losing both sides, it is better to open another track.
After Yang Xue listened to her husband's opinion, she directly discussed with Yang's father and finally decided to shift Yang's focus to the north.
Wang Gang's plan for the Yang family was not just about the north, but using the north as a springboard to enter the European market.
Father Yang greatly admired Wang Gang's spirit of daring to think and work hard, and directly agreed to the plan to move north. However, the Yang family was still somewhat dissatisfied with Chen Jianghe and Luo Yuzhu.
"Xiaoguan, prepare yourself. When the market in the north stabilizes, you will go to Europe immediately." Yang Xue took out a plan and handed it to Guan Xiaoguan.
Guan Xiaoguan took a few casual glances and was immediately fascinated.
"Ruan family?"
Yang Xue said: "The Ruan Group is very powerful overseas. Not long ago, they took the initiative to contact me and wanted to seek cooperation. Please contact me and see if there are any opportunities for cooperation."
Guan Xiaoguan said: "I have heard about the Ruan Group. Their reputation seems not to be very good. The current head of the Ruan Group, Ruan Wenxiong, is said to be a ruthless person."
Yang Xue said: "Ruan Wenxiong heard that we were forced to the north and wanted to cooperate to bring down the Yuzhu Group."
Guan Xiaoguan said in surprise: "Sister Xue, do you still want to deal with the Yuzhu Group?"
Yang Xue said coldly: "Your brother-in-law is good at everything, but he is too nostalgic."
Guan Xiaoguan instantly understood what Yang Xue meant.
Yang Xue spent the whole afternoon explaining work to Guan Xiaoguan. It was not until almost six o'clock that she asked the driver to take her to Jin Changsheng Restaurant. Then she found that her husband and children had not arrived yet. Brother Han and the others
Arrived early.
The waiter took Yang Xue to the private room. It was such a coincidence that Su Meng happened to come out of the office and bumped into Yang Xue.
"Are you Su Meng?" Yang Xue recognized Su Meng at a glance.
Su Meng also recognized Yang Xue.
When Wang Gang booked the private room, he did not do so in his own name, so Su Meng did not know that their family was coming to have dinner tonight.
Of course Su Meng has an impression of Yang Xue. After all, Yang Xue is the chairman of the Yang family and is often in the news.
"Mr. Yang." Su Meng suppressed her uneasiness.
When Yang Xue saw the waiter calling Su Meng "boss", she immediately understood that she owned the restaurant, and her face immediately sank.
The two women looked at each other and looked at each other. Yang Xue quickly smiled.
"Sister Su Meng, do you own this restaurant?" Yang Xue said kindly.
Su Meng was gradually suppressed by Yang Xue's aura.
"This is my uncle's restaurant, I'm temporarily managing it." Su Meng suddenly felt that she was really inferior compared to the dazzling Yang Xue.
Yang Xue has been managing the Yang family for many years, and has gradually developed the temperament of a person in power.
Although Su Meng opened a restaurant and an engineering company, compared with Yang's, there was a huge difference in size. They were like an ant and an elephant.
"I will be here with my children in a little while in Chunming. Then we can catch up on old times," Yang Xue said.
Wang Gang has never concealed his relationship history, and there is no need to conceal it. Yang Xue knows everything about him and Su Meng.
"By the way, I heard from Taozi that you have a son who is in junior high school!" Yang Xue asked intentionally or unintentionally.
Su Meng was startled and avoided Yang Xue's eyes.
"I'm preparing to find a school for my child, and I don't know much about the educational resources in the capital. We can talk about it when we have time." Yang Xue took Su Meng's hand and said enthusiastically.
Su Meng swallowed and had the urge to run away, but then she thought, she shouldn't be afraid of Yang Xue!
She is not a mistress!
Speaking of which, it was Yang Xue who should be panicking. If it hadn't been for her, she and Wang Gang would have become a couple long ago.
Su Meng straightened up and said, "You should consult Cai Xiaoli in this regard, she is the expert."
While talking, Wang Gang brought his family to the restaurant and saw Yang Xue and Su Meng.
Ordinary people would probably turn around and run away when faced with this kind of Shura field.
But Wang Gang showed no signs of timidity and directly pulled the child over.
"Children, this is your Aunt Su, dad's old neighbor." Wang Gang also introduced the children to Su Meng.
Su Meng and Yang Xue were both stunned.
Wang Gang said to Su Meng in front of his wife: "I came to see you before and wanted to get together with old friends, but I didn't expect you were not here."
Su Meng looked at Wang Gang with a complicated face and didn't know what to say for a moment.
To be honest, Su Meng had fantasized about many scenes of reuniting with Wang Gang, but this was definitely not the case.
"Sister Su Meng, why don't we all have dinner together later?" Yang Xue said proactively.
"No, I'm still busy with some things and have to go out soon." Su Meng said awkwardly.
Wang Gang asked: "Do you have a business card? Give me one and I will contact you again if you have the opportunity."
Su Meng mechanically took out her business card and handed it to Wang Gang.
Wang Gang accepted the business card and then led his family to the box.
Su Meng looked at Wang Gang's back with mixed emotions. When she saw them as a happy family, she immediately wanted to take her children back to Xiangjiang.
…………
Wang Gang and Yang Xue entered the box, and Brother Han and the others immediately greeted them.
"Xiao Wu, you are finally here." Brother Han smiled and gave Wang Gang a hug.
"Xiao Wu, you have been in the capital for a few days, why did you come to us?" Second Sister Han said dissatisfied.
"Second sister, I'm sorry, I'm really busy with work and I finally have time today." Wang Gang apologized.
A family gathering together looks very lively on the surface, but anyone with a discerning eye can tell something is wrong.
Almost everyone, whether it is the eldest brother, sister-in-law, second sister or second brother-in-law, is catering to Wang Gang and Yang Xue.
Among them, the eldest family and the second child's family hardly spoke, and they didn't even make eye contact.
The eldest sister and the eldest sister-in-law rarely communicate with each other. It is most appropriate to describe them as seemingly inseparable but distant from each other.
Mother Han on the side also saw the problem between the brothers, but she couldn't solve it.
Mother Han has figured out many things in the past ten years and no longer expects her children to love each other.
"Xiao Wu, are you still leaving when you come back this time? I heard that your 100th branch is about to open?" Brother Han said:
"You still have the ability. Unlike your second brother and me, I can't even manage a restaurant and will go bankrupt soon."
Wang Gang glanced at his brothers and sisters coldly, knowing that they all wanted his support.
"Actually, when I go back downstairs, I'm going to expand overseas markets. If you're interested, I can let you manage a store." Wang Gang said.
Brother Han said happily: "Xiaowu still misses family ties and thinks about his brothers and sisters. Where do you plan to open a store?"
"First go to Thailand, then Vietnam, then Nanyang, you can choose any one." Wang Gang said calmly.
Brother Han and others all had their smiles frozen on their faces.
They don't want to choose any of them, they are all crappy places!
