Rebirth: Return to 1991 to be the richest man

Chapter 591: It’s a bit too much
Chen Jianghai holds the majority of Haidilao’s shares.

But his original intention of investing in Haidilao was purely for Lin Wanqiu's face, so he gave Lin Wanqing and his wife a hand.

Now that Haidilao is doing well, Chen Jianghai doesn't want to get involved in too many business matters.

But since Shang Yuanming has come to ask for help, it doesn't matter if he gives you some advice.

Before giving any advice, he still wanted to hear Shang Yuanming's opinion first.

As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man how to fish than to teach him how to fish. It is better to teach Shang Yuanming how to do something than to teach him why he should do it.

"Jiang Hai, my idea is to open Haidilao branches in several cities around Hangzhou first."

Later, Shang Yuanming explained the reason for doing this.

First of all, if you open a branch nearby, Shang Yuanming will be able to keep an eye on it in the early stage to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Moreover, the branch is close, so if there are any problems, they can be solved in time.

This is also a prudent approach to avoid being too far away and out of reach.

At the same time, the eating habits in surrounding cities are very different, and the taste of Haidilao does not need much improvement.

After hearing Shang Yuanming's answer, Chen Jianghai nodded slightly.

This idea is very conservative and can be considered a feasible direction.

In fact, according to Chen Jianghai's thinking, Haidilao's next step should be to develop southward and along the coast.

One thing that is undeniable is that in the next few decades, cities in these two directions in China will develop really fast.

If Haidilao can now take root in these places and become famous, its reputation as the number one hot pot restaurant will be completely established.

"Brother-in-law, your idea is good, but I think it can be modified." Chen Jianghai said slowly.

"Jiang Hai, tell me." Shang Yuanming responded humbly.

"The first choice for opening branches in the early stage is first-tier cities, and later we should expand to the south and the seaside."

Chen Jianghai raised his hand and gestured.

Shang Yuanming was slightly stunned after hearing this, as if he was wondering why Chen Jianghai said this.

"Brother-in-law, don't think about it. Once you have fished the bottom of the sea all over the first-tier cities, you will know why I said to go south to the sea." Chen Jianghai said with a smile.

"Well, I will start preparing for this after I go back today." Shang Yuanming nodded heavily.

"Well, if you have any questions, tell me immediately. Don't worry about funds."

"Sure, Jiang Hai, get busy, we're leaving first!"

With that said, Shang Yuanming stood up and was about to leave, but found Lin Wanqing still sitting there.

"Yuanming, I have something to tell Jiang Hai. Can you wait for me in the car for a while?" Lin Wanqiu waved her hand and said.

"Okay, I'll wait for you in the car. Jiang Hai, I'm going down first."

Shang Yuanming stopped talking and left the office happily.

"What's wrong, sister, do you still have any doubts about opening a branch?"

Chen Jianghai followed and asked.

"Jiang Hai, this is not what I want to tell you." Lin Wanqing shook her head.

Chen Jianghai couldn't help but be stunned. If it wasn't this, what was that?

"Jiang Hai, what's going on with your secretary...?"

Lin Wanqing pursed her lips and asked outside.

Chen Jianghai understood immediately that Lin Wanqing was worried about her sister.

"Hey, as you know, Qiu Hai's stall is now bigger and there are more things to do, so I hired a secretary from Hirayama to be responsible for arranging the work at hand."

Regarding this matter, Chen Jianghai did not tell Lin Wanqiu because he was afraid that she would worry and overthink it.

But now that Lin Wanqing knew about it, she took this opportunity to talk about it.

"Then why don't you hire a male secretary?"

Lin Wanqing had a hint of questioning in her tone.

"Sister, I know what you are worried about." Chen Jianghai was not angry, and smiled slightly: "If I really did anything to hurt Wanqiu, would I keep her by my side so openly?"

Hearing what Chen Jianghai said, although Lin Wanqing thought it was true, she was not completely relieved.

"Jiang Hai, I know that you have more than one secretary, as well as Boss Bai's daughter. I heard that there is also a female treasurer."

Chen Jianghai couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this: "Sister, according to what you said, we Qiuhai can't recruit female employees?"

"Jiang Hai, that's not what I meant..."

Lin Wanqing's face turned slightly red, and she knew that what she just said was a bit too much.

"Sister, you should be able to see how I treat Wanqiu. Am I the kind of person who changes his mind when he sees something different?"

Chen Jianghai asked rhetorically as his expression straightened.

This question stopped Lin Wanqing.

Yes, with Chen Jianghai’s current net worth, what kind of woman can’t be found?

If he really has second thoughts, no matter how much he says, it will have no effect.

Maybe the more he talks, the opposite will happen and Chen Jianghai will do something irrational.

At the same time, Lin Wanqing also thought of an incident in the past, which was the scene where Xue Chunli forced the two of them to divorce.

At that time, Chen Jianghai firmly disagreed, which showed that he had deep feelings for Lin Wanqiu.

Thinking of this, Lin Wanqing knew she could no longer dwell on this topic.

It's not easy for her sister to have the happy life she has now. She doesn't want to cause any misunderstanding between the two because of her words.

"Jiang Hai, I'm sorry. I think too much. Please don't take it to heart." Lin Wanqing said apologetically.

"Sister, I know you care about Wanqiu, it's okay." Chen Jianghai waved his hand.

"Jiang Hai, there is something I must tell you clearly. Today's matter has nothing to do with Wanqiu. It was just when I saw this female secretary that I became a little worried and asked more questions."

Lin Wanqing explained.

"Sister, don't worry, I know very well who Wanqiu is. If she has any questions, she will definitely ask me directly." Chen Jianghai said disapprovingly.

"Well, it's best if you think so. Then I'll leave first." Lin Wanqing stood up and said.

"I send you."

"No, no, no, just go about your business!"

"Ask your brother-in-law to drive slower on the way, and be sure to call back when you arrive, otherwise Wanqiu will be worried!"

Chen Jianghai nodded and warned.

……

At noon, Chen Jianghai accompanied Chen Shuyao to the dining hall and asked Chef Yan to watch him cook a few dishes.

Seeing the big boss coming, Chef Yan personally went into battle and cooked a few specialty dishes.

Looking at the delicious dishes on the table, Chen Jianghai couldn't help but praise: "Chef Yan, your skills seem to have improved a lot!"

"Hey, Mr. Chen, speaking of which, I still want to thank you!"

Chef Yan rubbed his hands and said cheerfully.

"Oh, how do you say this?" Chen Jianghai couldn't help but ask.

Ever since Yan Shaohui entered Qiu Hai's canteen, he was really busy at the beginning.

Later, he recruited several apprentices, and after several months of teaching by words and deeds, he was now able to help.

In this way, Yan Shaohui has a lot more free time.

He didn't waste his free time, but spent it studying the dishes.

Previously, Yan Shaohui had to make a living and was busy every day, so he didn't have much time to spend on improving his cooking skills.

After this period of study, his level has naturally improved to a higher level.
