Chapter 219 Zhao Yushui's Efficiency Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyi came here today just for this. Ning Weidong readily responded to Yu Yan's suggestion, "Brother-in-law, this is the situation..." Then he started talking about his idea of ​​expanding the company and moving to a new office building. Yu Yan was standing by, listening while taking a bite of food. Finally, Ning Weidong said, "It just so happens that a friend of mine said that the Fumin Hotel has a good location and a large space. The most important thing is that it has been losing money for the past two years." Yu Yan understood what Ning Weidong meant, that is, he wanted to use his connections with the Second Light Industry Corporation to directly take over the Fumin Hotel. He was from the Urban Construction Bureau. Although he was not from the Second Light Industry System, he was familiar with some situations. He pondered and said, "Weidong, this is not easy to handle. Although you said that the hotel has been losing money for years, the fixed assets are there..." Ning Weidong said, "Brother-in-law, I know." Then he looked at Zhao Ruyi and her sister, "Ruyi told me a long time ago that our family would rather suffer a loss than take advantage of the public." After hearing this, Zhao Yushui couldn't help but nodded. In fact, when she received Zhao Ruyu's call this afternoon, she felt a little unhappy.

I feel that Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu are ignorant and are just talking nonsense. If they really bring the hotel from the Second Light Industry Company, what will become of the Zhao family? If this matter gets out, it will have an adverse impact on her father's reputation and even his future. It’s just that Zhao Yushui is quite shrewd. Although she had not had much contact with Ning Weidong before, her elder brother Zhao Lichun had a high opinion of Ning Weidong. She didn't rush to say anything, but wanted to listen carefully and see what Ning Weidong would do, so she called them over. Hearing Ning Weidong's words, he felt that he might have misunderstood his brother-in-law before. Ning Weidong continued, "Whoever owns the fixed assets will own them. I just want an office space. We can pay you the rent for the building." Zhao Yushui nodded slightly, as long as Ning Weidong didn't try to take advantage of her. Ning Weidong added: "There is a precedent. The whole building was originally the Fumin Hotel, and now a small part of the north side is used as the office of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles. I think we can keep the sign of the Fumin Hotel, let me use most of the rooms as offices, and let them continue to run the hotel with the rest..." Ning Weidong explained his intention, and Zhao Yushui thought about it and felt that there was room for maneuver if this was the case. He immediately said, "I will go to Wang Hongying's workplace in person tomorrow and answer my call." Ning Weidong smiled and said, "Oh, Second Sister, thank you so much." Since Zhao Yushui said this, this matter is almost certain. It’s not that Zhao Yushui is so powerful, but mainly because Ning Weidong has lowered his expectations very low. If Ning Weidong wanted the building of Fumin Hotel, he would be stopped by Zhao Yushui without even having to say anything. But if you only rent an office, there is no problem. Ning Weidong had a few more drinks with Yu Yan, and the two of them finished a bottle of Moutai together. At about seven o'clock, Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu came out. Zhao Yushui and his wife accompanied them downstairs, waved goodbye as they walked away, and then turned around and walked back into the building. As Zhao Yushui went upstairs, he asked, "What do you think of Ning Weidong?" Yu Yan said: "If my father approves of someone, he must be good and capable of doing things." Zhao Yushui nodded and said, "That's right. He is indeed a man of measure. He knows what he can and cannot do."

As they were talking, the two of them went back upstairs and closed the door. Zhao Yushui changed into slippers again and said while cleaning the table, "You should spend more time with him in the future. My eldest brother is going to Handong soon. From now on, it will be just Ruyi and I in the capital." "I know~" Yu Yan responded: "By the way, what do you think about letting Hongmei work for him?" Yu Hongmei is Yu Yan’s sister. She went to the countryside two years ago and still hasn’t found a suitable job. With Yu Yan's ability, it is not impossible to arrange it if he really tries every possible means, but his parents love their daughter and don't want Yu Hongmei to go to the factory. This is not easy to handle. Although the Yu family was far inferior to the Zhao family, it was not an ordinary family either, so they simply raised their daughter. Zhao Yushui was surprised and asked, "Is it possible? Last time I went to the cotton mill, it was a big state-owned enterprise, and I didn't want to go. Let's go to Ning Weidong's, that's a big collective." Yu Yan waved his hands and said helplessly: "That damn girl, does she care whether you are a state-owned enterprise or a collective? She doesn't like to go to the cotton mill because she thinks it is too far from home, so she rides a bicycle to and from get off work." Zhao Yushui blinked her eyes. She had been married to Yu Yan for five or six years, but she was not very familiar with this sister-in-law. When they got married, Yu Hongmei had already gone to the countryside. She came back a few times to visit her relatives, but she was gone after two or three days. Until I came back late last year. Zhao Yushui said: "Hongmei can't ride a bike? I remember she has ridden one before~" Yu Yan chuckled and said, "She can ride a bike, but she doesn't like it. When she was a child, she had just learned to ride a bike and someone was digging a ditch on the road. It was dark at night and she didn't see it, so she rode both herself and the bike into the ditch. Since then, she has been ill and usually doesn't ride a bike unless she can..." Zhao Yushui didn't expect there was such an allusion and couldn't help but smile. Yu Yan continued, "Ning Weidong's company is not far away. Even if she moves to that hotel in the future, Hongmei can still walk to and from get off work." Zhao Yushui said, "Then you go ask her later. If Hongmei is willing, I will go and talk to her." …… The next afternoon, Ning Weidong didn't expect Zhao Yushui to be so efficient. He originally thought that he would have to wait a few days before there would be any progress. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yushui called me the next afternoon: "Weidong~I'm your second sister." Ning Weidong hurriedly said: "I heard it, Second Sister~" Zhao Yushui said: "Go to the Second Light Industry Bureau to find Wang Yongfu now..." Ning Weidong agreed, and Zhao Yushui hung up the phone after he finished speaking. Ning Weidong hasn't quite reacted yet, is it over? But since Zhao Yushui called, it must be good. He immediately rode his bike to the Second Light Industry Bureau. In less than half an hour, Ning Weidong put his bicycle downstairs and walked straight inside. Go to the mail room and knock on the window.

The guard inside was dozing off, and was quite annoyed by being disturbed. He looked at Ning Weidong with his eyelids rolled up and said unhappily, "Who are you looking for~" Ning Weidong didn't care: "I'm looking for Wang Yongfu, please help me, which floor is his office on?" Just now on the phone, Zhao Yushui didn't say where Wang Yongfu was exactly, he just told him to come over. The security guard at the mailroom frowned and asked cautiously, "Looking for Section Chief Wang? Who are you?" Ning Weidong smiled and said, "My name is Ning Weidong. I just got on the phone. Section Chief Wang is waiting for me. If you don't believe me, you can call to confirm." The guard was stunned for a moment, and didn't dare to say anything more. He pointed and said, "Go up the stairs to the second floor, the third office on the east side." The fact that he was able to make a phone call before coming shows that the young man in front of him is not here rashly. Even if he is asking someone to do something for him, he must know how to do it. Ning Weidong thanked him, found Wang Yongfu's office, and knocked on the door. A voice came from inside: "Come in." Ning Weidong turned the door handle, pushed the door open, and smiled before he spoke: "Chief Wang!" In the office, Wang Yongfu was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "Are you Ning Weidong?" Ning Weidong took a few steps forward, stretched out his hand and said, "Excuse me, sorry to bother you, Chief Wang~" Wang Yongfu stood up with a smile and shook hands with Ning Weidong enthusiastically: "What do you mean by disturbing me? Your second sister and my younger sister are classmates. What Chief Wang? Just call me Brother Wang." Ning Weidong chuckled and said, "Then I will respectfully obey your orders, Brother Wang~" Wang Yongfu knew that Ning Weidong was the son-in-law of the Zhao family, so he did not dare to neglect him at all. He pulled Ning Weidong to sit down, took the teacup, poured water in it, and after exchanging pleasantries, he quickly got down to business. Ning Weidong explained the situation and his request again, and finally said: "Brother Wang, I know this matter is not easy to handle, and I certainly can't make it difficult for you. I can increase the rent by 20%, and I can also accept the remaining staff in the hotel." Ning Weidong knew very well what the higher authorities cared about and what they didn't care about. As for the rent, no one cares. All the money will be deposited into the public account and no one will get it in their pocket. The reason why Ning Weidong is willing to pay more rent is actually an attitude. Standing on the side of the Second Light Industry, what we fear most is actually trouble. If we really give Fumin Hotel to Ning Weidong, although Ning Weidong said that the sign can be retained, the remaining rooms can only support a few people. If we can't pay salaries at that time, no one will be blamed. If something really happens, that would be the most troublesome. Therefore, Ning Weidong took the initiative to propose that he could take in the extra personnel, which was equivalent to dispelling Wang Yongfu's worries in advance. Sure enough, after hearing Ning Weidong say this, Wang Yongfu smiled even more: "Weidong, you have thought ahead to everything." Originally, Zhao Yushui found his family through Wang Hongying, so he had to give him this face. Plus, Ning Weidong was so sensible, Wang Yongfu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Originally he was a little worried that it would be difficult to deal with the aftermath of the Fumin Hotel. Just at this moment, there was another knock on the door. Wang Yongfu shouted "Come in".

A middle-aged man pushed the door open from outside. Wang Yongfu smiled and said, "Old Chen, you've come at the right time. Let me introduce you. This is Comrade Ning Weidong, and this is Manager Chen from Fumin Hotel." Ning Weidong stood up and shook hands with Manager Chen. Manager Chen looked at Ning Weidong with a complicated expression. He obviously knew what was going on. He forced a smile and said, "Manager Ning, you are indeed a promising young man." Ning Weidong said: "Manager Chen, you are too polite." What followed was another round of negotiations, with Wang Yongfu coordinating and the bureau setting the tone. Manager Chen of the Fumin Hotel knew that the situation was hopeless, so he did not cause any trouble and went through the formalities smoothly. From today on, three quarters of the building originally occupied by Fumin Hotel will belong to Dongyi Company. The rent is three hundred yuan per month, paid directly to the bureau. At the same time, Ning Weidong also had to take over twelve original hotel staff members. With the remaining one quarter, Fumin Hotel continues to operate. Ning Weidong was naturally very satisfied with this result. He thanked Wang Yongfu profusely and promised to treat him to a meal later, and only then did he leave the Second Light Industry Bureau. Without further ado, Ning Weidong returned to the company's courtyard and immediately called Ning Wei over, asking him to take people to Fumin Hotel to take over that place. Although at this juncture it is almost impossible for anyone to discover the safe hidden in the wall on the fourth floor, it is better to be safe than sorry. Ning Wei was stunned when he heard this. Ning Weidong hadn't let anyone know before, but he actually got half of the building in one go. He immediately rushed out with Liu Dong, Wang Xuewen, Zhao Chunming and others. As soon as they left, Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi came out of the office opposite: "Manager, what happened?" Ning Weidong smiled and said, "I have an office building in Xidan. When we get it sorted out, we can move there." Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi were both stunned. Wang Kaixuan asked, "Why are you moving when everything is fine?" Ning Weidong said, "Our yard is so small, and we will definitely need to hire more people as the company grows in the future. It's better to prepare for a rainy day than to be stretched to the limit when the time comes." Wang Kaixuan suddenly realized something, half-truthfully: "Manager, you are the one who has foresight~" Ning Weidong laughed and said, "Don't give me that. You're flattering too much." He then said to Hu Bayi, "Old Hu, you've been a leader in the army and have management experience. Don't hide it. You need to make full use of it." Hu Bayi's heart moved, and he understood what Ning Weidong meant: "Manager, if you have any instructions, I will definitely do it." In fact, Hu Bayi has been feeling a little uneasy these days. Ever since coming to Ning Weidong, he has been hanging out with Wang Kaixuan every day and has nothing serious to do. Although he worked with Wang Kaixuan and used his connections in Fujian Province to get two approval documents and earned several thousand yuan, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan had different personalities.

He was a soldier. Wang Kaixuan felt that this kind of life was pretty good, but Hu Bayi felt uncomfortable. When he heard that Ning Weidong wanted him to do something today, he suddenly felt eager. Ning Weidong called the two of them to the upper room, sat on the sofa and said, "Old Hu, I'm planning to set up a winery recently..." Blah blah, I told him about my idea of ​​using low-quality liquor, filtering it, adding water, making vodka, and selling it to the Speed ​​Union people. Ning Weidong had nothing to hide from King Hu and the other man. After Ning Weidong finished speaking, Wang Kaixuan slapped the armrest of the sofa: "Fuck! You can still do this!" Hu Bayi was more calm, but he also felt that Ning Weidong's ideas were wild and unrealistic. At the same time, he also understood what Ning Weidong meant: "Manager, are you going to let me manage this factory?" Ning Weidong said: "It's not management, it's construction! Now we have no venue, equipment, personnel, anything. Lao Hu, I want to hand this over to you." Hu Bayi licked his lips and met Ning Weidong's gaze: "You are choosing my general." Ning Weidong smiled and said, "Do you dare to accept it?" Hu Bayi sat up straight, his back straight: "Why not? As long as you trust me, I promise to complete the task." Although he has been away from the army for more than half a year, Hu Bayi's spirit and energy have not dissipated due to the hardships of life. Ning Weidong said "OK" and immediately made the decision: "Old Hu, I'll talk to you in detail. You have to come up with a plan as soon as possible. As for the funds... I'll give you 10,000 yuan first. You will be responsible for selecting a site, recruiting people, and finding the equipment you need. If there is anything you can't solve, come to me directly."
