"Let's not talk about this anymore. Brother, are you busy at the moment? We two brothers haven't seen each other for such a long time. Let's have a meal and drink together."
After Li Jianbin smiled awkwardly, he returned to normal and changed the topic.
It’s true that college counts as half of society. After going to college, Li Jianbin has obviously grown up.
Although the growth direction was not in line with Liu Hongchang's expectations, Li Jianbin's resistance was dissipated a lot.
After experience, the child has come to understand some realities, and knows that relying on my mother is the shortcut in life. At least it can give me a starting point, and he proudly and calmly accepts my arrangement.
I am more impulsive and emotional than before, and I am much more rational.
"You sit down first and wait a moment while I cook the food for this group of people. Let's have a drink together." After looking at the number of customers in the canteen, Liu Hongchang said.
Even though Li Jianbin grew crooked, Liu Hongchang did not give up on Li Jianbin.
In Liu Hongchang's opinion, this child wants to be his mother's baby, but it is obvious that he lacks Liu Hongchang's constant advice and encouragement.
Considering that Li Jianbin is still young, Liu Hongchang should still try to save him.
Liu Hongchang returned to the kitchen and quickly prepared the dishes he had ordered.
When I usually see the kitchen busy, it is Liu Hongchang who is fishing with his six sons.
If you really want to work normally, the work in the second cafeteria is actually not that much.
The kitchen just lacks a cook, not a stove. For a mature cook, it is not a big problem to control more stoves.
Because there is one less Su Hou, the dishes in the Second Canteen are mainly simple, and there are no dishes with complicated cooking methods. It takes one or two minutes to cook a dish, which is normal operation.
"Jianbin, tell me about your college life. Can you also give me, an old man like me, some insights?"
Liu Hongchang brought a plate of braised food first and sat down with Li Jianbin.
On the one hand, asking about college life is polite, and on the other hand, Liu Hongchang wants to help Li Jianbin find the reason.
"University is indeed different..."
To put it simply, Li Jianbin, who is considered a second-generation student in Ningzhou, felt the unevenness of life after going to university in the provincial capital.
Many people in Ningzhou want to help Li Jianbin's family, but of course they don't have this kind of treatment in other places.
After being unable to get along outside, Li Jianbin thought of the good things at home.
Originally, I felt that my wings were hardened and I wanted to spread my wings and fly high.
I just took half a step and experienced a little wind and rain.
The child clearly realizes that its wings are not strong enough to fly high, and it wants to return to its mother's nest.
"If that's the case, then come back."
If Jin Gui and Li Jianbin, college students of this era, stay in any unit in the provincial capital, they can easily get a higher ceiling.
It's actually not bad to come back. With my mother's care and paving the way, Li Jianbin has a higher limit.
If you consider the risks, of course a higher bottom line is more secure.
If this development does not meet Liu Hongchang's expectations, Liu Hongchang will praise the child for knowing current affairs.
"Brother, how have you been these past few years? Are you doing well?"
"It's still the same. When you left, I was the cook of the Second Canteen. Now that you are back, I am still the cook of the Second Canteen."
Liu Hongchang is living a good life, and his life has been very fruitful in the past few years, so there is no need to explain it to Li Jianbin in too much detail.
Even if Liu Hongchang deceived Li Jianbin, Li Jianbin had a good attitude towards Liu Hongchang and considered Liu Hongchang a good big brother.
But no matter what, as a man who cared about He Wenhui, Li Jianbin always stood by He Wenhui's side.
Liu Hongchang's life was so good after abandoning He Wenhui that it was not what Li Jianbin wanted to see.
"How is Wenhui?"
After a few words, he asked about He Wenhui and asked Liu Hongchang to confirm Li Jianbin. He asked him just out of politeness.
"What, you haven't contacted each other in the past few years?"
Even in the past few years, when Li Jianbin was on vacation, he basically stayed in the provincial capital and rarely returned to Ningzhou.
But Li Jianbin had no contact with He Wenhui at all, and Liu Hongchang still didn't believe it.
"We haven't had much contact for a while. I wrote to Wenhui, but she didn't reply to me much." Li Jianbin replied in a low mood.
It is normal for He Wenhui to be busy every day and find it difficult to survive. She has no time to talk about old friendships with Li Jianbin.
Li Jianbin would not give the He family any help when reminiscing with Li Jianbin.
Considering that college students in this era will never return to their hometown, Li Jianbin is obviously not part of He Wenhui's plans.
"He Wenhui is not having a good time these days..."
After thinking for a while, Liu Hongchang decided to tell Li Jianbin about He Wenhui's situation.
Not being able to hide it is one aspect, but the He family will have more troubles next.
It’s not bad to have Li Jianbin to attract firepower.
I still need Li Jianbin's help to fill in the Hejia hole.
Otherwise, my daughter will gradually grow up and become sensible.
The life of his daughter's biological mother was so miserable that Liu Hongchang was indifferent. He was too cruel to his daughter.
"Did something happen to her?" Li Jianbin stood up anxiously.
"Don't worry, you are already a college student now, a talent that the country has worked hard to cultivate. How about you be more stable? What does it mean to be so frizzy? Nothing happened to her, but during this period, there were a lot of things happening in his family...
"
After Liu Hongchang reprimanded Li Jianbin, he told Li Jianbin the important things about the He family as simply as possible.
"Brother, I'm sorry. We'll eat the meal later and drink the wine later. I have to leave first."
After listening, Li Jianbin couldn't sit still at all.
"What are you going to do?"
"Look for Wenhui."
"They are at work. Didn't you delay their work in the past?"
"I can't care anymore." As he spoke, Li Jianbin had already reached the door of the Second Canteen.
"Brother, what does this person mean? I've been waiting for you for so long to drink, and the food hasn't even been served yet, and now he's running away again?" After Li Jianbin left, Liu Zi walked out with the food.
Liu Zi loves to be lively and care about all kinds of things.
"If he doesn't drink, someone will. Sit down and let's drink together."
Waste must not be wasted, and supplies are only just a little full. In this era, wasting food is still a "crime".
After the vegetables were cooked and the wine was served, Li Jianbin ran away, and Liu Hongchang happened to be drinking with Liu Zi. It happened that the two of them had something to talk about.
"Brother, was that He Wenhui's first love just now, your former love rival?"
Liu Zi was not familiar with Li Jianbin, but he had some impression of him.
"That's the guy."
"Didn't he go to college?"
"I'm about to graduate and start my internship. If I go directly to an institution, don't worry about me. How are you doing with the things I asked you?"
"No, brother, he is already a college student, and he is still chasing after He Wenhui like this?"
Obviously, Li Jianbin's words about going to find He Wenhui were also overheard by Liu Zi.
"People are happy. Do you understand the brains of intellectuals? Just stop worrying about it and get down to business."
"I've asked, and it turns out that there are some small collective workshops that can no longer operate. But brother, these are small workshops that can't make any money, and they are the ones who want to sell them. Why should we take over them?"
"If you don't make money in the hands of others, it doesn't mean that you won't make money in the hands of your brother and me. If you take it over, there is a natural reason to take it over. Don't invest in a coal mine because it will make you big-hearted and look down on these small businesses.
All businesses have been started since childhood, so use some snacks to inquire about them."
One look at Liu Zi's appearance, and Liu Hongchang knew that Liu Zi had a disdain for small factories and did not work properly.
"Brother, I don't look down on you. I'll hurry up and inquire about it in the next few days."
"We don't have money right now, so be careful when asking about it. If you can contract it from the public sector, try to contract it from the public sector."
To be honest, if you want to make a fortune in this era, you should take advantage of the public advantage.
The cost of accepting a small factory or workshop from the public is much lower than investing all your own capital.
The next morning, Li Jianbin ran to the Second Canteen again.
This guy hasn't reported to the agency yet, so he is indeed very free.
Before the canteen opened, Liu Hongchang took Li Jianbin to the front hall to drink tea and talk together.
The time in the middle of the morning is not suitable for drinking, only tea.
"Brother, did you know that Wen Yuan was expelled from school?" After sitting down, Li Jianbin looked anxious and worried.
"When were you fired?"
Liu Hongchang was not surprised that He Wenyuan would be fired. He just wanted to confirm the time.
If something like that happened to He Wenyuan and it was widely spread, it would be impossible not to treat it differently from students, teachers, and everyone you know.
To be honest, the correct solution to the problem is for He Wenyuan to leave Ningzhou, change his environment, and live in a place where no one knows him.
"Just a few days ago."
"How could I know what happened a few days ago so quickly?" Liu Hongchang replied casually.
"Brother, do you know now?"
"Yes, I understand." Liu Hongchang nodded.
"Brother, can you help Wenyuan?"
"No, Jianbin, what do you mean? How do you want me to help He Wenyuan?"
Liu Hongchang was planning to dump the He family's troubles on Li Jianbin, but he never expected that Li Jianbin would think of kicking the ball to him.
"Brother, can you help Wenyuan find a school?"
"Li Jianbin, you are a cadre's son and you are a cadre yourself. You can't solve the problem. Let me, a cook, solve it. Do you think I, a cook, am so capable?"
"Brother, you also know my situation. Our family doesn't want to see me having a relationship with Wen Hui. Previously, Wen Tao was expelled from school. Brother, didn't you find a school for him?"
"Can it be the same? He Wentao was expelled. He was a primary school student and in the compulsory education stage. He Wenyuan is in high school. This is already secondary education and is beyond the compulsory stage. After being expelled, how can he be easily accepted by other schools? Besides,
The situations of the two siblings are also different. Why was He Wenyuan expelled?"
When Liu Hongchang helped He Wentao find a school, Li Jianbin shouldn't have known about it.
Li Jianbin still found out, and the source of the information could only be the He family.
Thinking this way, Li Jianbin came to find Liu Hongchang, and the He family's instigation, consciously or unconsciously, was indispensable.
He Wenhui knew how to use this method, but Yu Qiuhua was actually better at it.
"Their school said Wenyuan colluded with gangsters outside the school to bully his classmates, so Wenyuan was expelled."
No matter how much things changed, He Wenyuan still got involved with gangsters.
After you make yourself smelly, you will inevitably attract flies.
"That's it. No matter how big of a mistake He Wentao made, he made it outside of school and it did not affect his teachers or classmates. No school would dare to let someone like He Wenyuan, who colludes with gangsters and bully his classmates, go."
When you want to do something, you only need one reason; when you don't want to do it, you can find countless reasons.
"Since I can't get into the school, brother, can you help arrange a job for Wenyuan?"
Li Jianbin looked at Liu Hongchang expectantly. He even had a plan B. Liu Hongchang really doubted whether Li Jianbin had such a brain.
Liu Hongchang looked at Li Jianbin now, and all he could see was himself a few years ago, so stupid that he would be taken advantage of by the He family.
Li Jianbin's behavior was the same as that of Liu Hongchang during that time. He completely regarded himself as a member of He's family and cared about He's family's concerns. However, Li Jianbin only raised problems and looked to Liu Hongchang for solutions. This was a bit excessive.
"Jianbin, I'm just a cook, not a union leader like your mother. I really can't do these things. Otherwise, you should go back and discuss it with your mother."
If Li Jianbin is not a mother's baby, the consequences will be that Liu Hongchang will be the one to solve everything.
Liu Hongchang still wants Li Jianbin to continue to be his mother's baby.
If it is for the He family to be the mother's baby, Liu Hongchang expresses his support.
"Brother, I came here to find you, but they all sneaked out..."
In this regard, Li Jianbin is no different from what he was four or five years ago. He is still managed like a kitten by his mother.
I didn't dare to mention it at all and asked my mother to help the He family.
"Bang, bang bang!"
Suddenly, there were several sounds of kicking the door outside the Second Canteen.
"Fellow chefs, it's now open for business, we're taking orders!"
Then I saw a gangster come in and said casually.
"Bang bang bang, here are the people, we are picking up the guests, we want to eat (we want to eat)!"
Then a few more men and women followed the gangster, and when they came in, they started banging the table and shouting.
"Go away, who gave you the courage to act wild in the second cafeteria? Didn't you see it's not business hours? Who let you in?"
Seeing these attitudes, Liu Hongchang scolded him directly.
It is impossible for Liu Hongchang to have a good attitude towards this kind of thing that looks like a gangster and a gangster at first glance.
The Second Canteen is a state-owned unit. It is a place with rules. It does not receive customers before business hours. It is much more principled than a private restaurant.
After the canteen was asked to improve its service attitude, the attitude of customers has indeed become worse and worse.
As a customer, Liu Hongchang did not like the original service attitude of the canteen.
But as a canteen employee, Liu Hongchang still likes the hard-core service of the original canteen.
"Isn't your canteen just a place to sell food? We want to eat, why don't you sell it?" The gangster sat down on the dining table and shouted arrogantly.
That is to say, young people who have not experienced the past few years dare to be so arrogant in a state-owned unit.
"He Wenyuan, come in. Don't you have your enemy here? Look at how I will vent your anger."
After the shouting was over, the gangster shouted towards the outside of the cafeteria.
"He Wenyuan!" Next to Liu Hongchang, Li Jianbin, who had never encountered trouble, muttered.
