450. The feeling of a mother remarrying with a child (seeking a monthly ticket)
"You can get the price." Xu Ziling said in a very small tone, feeling like she insisted on winning the sweetheart shop.
Xu Ziling went on a business trip to Yuncheng and called herself on her own initiative. Xia Mo thought she was just here to take a look. A few months ago, she had heard that Jiangnan Banquet would separate various cuisines, and each store owner recommended one cuisine, including desserts.
But she didn't expect that Xu Ziling actually came to the shop and said she would buy the shop.
It has only been five years since the store opened. It started with a storefront, and now it has two floors and six rooms. At first, Xia Mo just likes to make desserts and likes to share his skills. He never thought about expanding the store.
However, as her popularity grew, she found that the small shop could no longer meet everyone's needs, so she expanded the store. Sweetheart Shop is neither a chain store nor a well-known brand. What is the use of Xu Ziling to acquire this store?
"Do you want our brand? The name of Sweetheart Shop? Or do you like the location of the store?" Xia Mo asked.
"Not either. What I like is that you are in this store. Do you want to be my dessert manager? In the future, where there are Jiangnan Yanyu, there will be a sweetheart shop, one company, two types of management, or you will manage the sweetheart shop, and you will provide technology." Xu Ziling's real purpose is to let Xia Mo work for herself.
"I will pay three times your current income, plus the use fee of the Sweetheart Shop."
Nowadays, the conditions offered by Xu Ziling are really attractive. Even though the shop is doing well now, it was closed last year and had no income for several months. However, employees' wages and rents are paid, and they are included in the Jiangnan Banquet, which can ensure income from drought and flood.
But this is a brand created by oneself, just like your own children. When you come to Jiangnan Yanyu, you always feel like a mother remarrying with her children.
There are many more precious things in this world than money, such as freedom and a sense of accomplishment.
Xia Mo and Xiao Tianlin are both free people and are used to being free. She can even be willful until she doesn't open the door on rainy days. At worst, she doesn't have a day's income or not. She can also not come to the store for a week. If she really wants to go to Jiangnan, she will always have to put in energy with such a high salary.
"Sorry, Mr. Xu, I can provide free guidance when I have time. You can even get desserts from me, but I can't go there. This store is not a profitable tool, but also my career and sustenance. Especially after my child goes to college, he will not transfer no matter how much money he pays. I hope you can understand." Xia Mo's tone was very light, but his expression was extremely firm.
Xu Ziling sighed softly: "This is also what I admire you, respect your decision, and thank you for your afternoon tea."
Then the two chatted casually for a while.
Xiao Xiao and Li Zexin took the clothes and went straight to their mother's office.
When Xiao Xiao pushed open the door, he saw Xu Ziling. He said in surprise: "Grandma Xu, why is it you?"
"Why, I can't come to your store?"
Xia Mo looked at her son and Xu Ziling in shock: "Do you know each other?"
"Well, every time we compete, Grandma Xu provides the meal, and Grandma Xu will deliver it in person." Xiao Xiao said truthfully.
"Ah?" Xia Mo still didn't understand.
"Jiangnan Banquet is the headquarters in the imperial capital. Isn't I also in the imperial capital most of the competitions? So I have met Grandma Xu several times."
"Xinxin is my niece and I. If it weren't for Xinxin in the team, we wouldn't have bid. Xiaomei is back, would you meet?" Grandma Xu changed her seriousness just now and became amiable.
"I forgot to introduce that my hometown is also in Yuncheng. Every year, my family will come back here for the New Year. Xiaomei is my granddaughter, about the same age as Xiao Xiao, and the only seed of our Xu family. I originally wanted to trick you into Jiangnan Banyu and invite you to a high salary, and directly establish a relationship with Xinxin, but I was rejected." Grandma Xu smiled bitterly.
Xia Mo admitted that she was not good at brains and she really didn't understand.
Li Zexin's smile froze. He understood. Isn't it just that Grandma Xu's granddaughter likes Xiao Xiao, and probably feels embarrassed to say it. Then Grandma likes Xiao Xiao very much, so Grandma comes to the door and knocks on the side, on the surface, she wants Aunt Xia to go to Jiangnan for some banquets, but in fact, it is for Aunt Xia to work there, and the Xu family and the Xia family are one step closer.
Xiao Xiao also understood, and he said awkwardly: "My mother is just a little new thing. She doesn't come to the store every day. She works all depends on her mood. If you ask her to go to Jiangnan for a banquet, believe it or not, she will make the overall work atmosphere worse."
Although I know my son is talking to me, it is a bit too much to harm me like this.
"Am I so unreliable?"
"Yes, it's definitely not suitable for managing such a formal enterprise. However, Grandma Xu, our cake house is not worthy of Jiangnan Yanyu."
"Why are you not worthy? They are all cooking. Isn't this with you and your mother? I want me to tell you, your mother is better than all the employees, Xiao Xiao, haven't you said when you have time recently? Didn't you make an appointment to go to Yuncheng before and have dinner at my house?" Xu Ziling looked at Xiao Xiao.
"I can do it all. It's winter vacation. Let's see your time. Is it too much to disturb your home?"
"Xiao Mei talks about you every day. If you want to go over, she must be very happy. Take your parents with you and our families will meet you." Xu Ziling said with a smile.
Xia Mo finally realized that this Xu always looked for a grandson-in-law. The granddaughter on the left likes Xiao Xiao, and the granddaughter on the right wants to meet Xiao Xiao, and the two families meet each other. Isn’t it just a blind date scene?
"We are very busy during the New Year. You are away from home all year round. I believe that many relatives need to go there once when we come back, so don't arrange for us to go there. You see, after the New Year, I will either book a restaurant outside and get together?" Xia Mo thought his son disagreed and helped him rescue him.
"There is no warm home outside. My chefs are all top chefs in Jiangnan Yanyu. We will not disturb you at all. We will discuss the date."
"This..." Xia Mo looked at his son.
"Or it's just these two days, I'm really busy after the holiday, and I even made an appointment with a friend." Xiao Xiao actually agreed.
Xia Mo:...
Li Zexin:...
Li Zexin's heart is like 10,000 heads, what does it mean? Is this meeting with parents? Isn't it just a hotel? Is his family rich? Xiao Xiao actually agreed. People say that they are so clear that their granddaughter likes him, don't you know how to avoid suspicion?
The boy frowned and said nothing.
Xiao Xiao didn't treat Li Zexin as an outsider and chatted unscrupulously in front of him. The more Li Zexin listened, the more depressed he became.
After another half an hour, Xu Ziling finally left.
Li Zexin asked angrily: "God, are you going to have a girlfriend?"
Xiao Xiao's eyes widened: "What?"
