Xia Ruofei thought for a while and said, "Forget about the reward. I don't think he will accept it …"
"No reward?" Feng Jing widened her eyes in surprise and said, "Chairman, this … isn't appropriate, right?"
Xia Ruofei could naturally see that Xu Lang seemed to have the intention of befriending him. If it was just Ma Xiong and the other Hong Kong tycoons greeting him, it shouldn't be enough for Xu Lang to treat him differently. However, Xia Ruofei couldn't figure out the reason behind it.
But at least Xia Ruofei didn't feel Xu Lang's malice, so he didn't waste his brain cells to think so much.
No matter what, Xia Ruofei had a premonition that if he paid Xu Lang, he most likely wouldn't accept it. Of course, Xu Lang came all the way here, so he couldn't let him come for nothing.
Xia Ruofei thought for a while and had a plan in his heart. He smiled and said, "I have my own arrangements. You can rest assured! I won't be rude! "
Feng Jing shrugged and said, "Alright then!"
While the three of them were chatting, the kitchen started to serve the dishes one after another. The Buddha jumps over the wall that Feng Jing couldn't forget was also served.
Xia Ruofei ordered four servings. He originally wanted to give it to Xie Bing, who was his driver today. However, Ling Qingxue was coming over later, so he thought for a while and said to the waiter, "Ask the kitchen to prepare another serving of Buddha jumps over the wall. My driver is eating in the front yard. Send it to him."
Xia Ruofei originally wanted Xie Bing to eat at the Flying Snow Pavilion in the backyard, but Xie Bing repeatedly declined. So, he could only ask for a small private room in the front yard.
The waiter's face twitched. He thought to himself, This young master is really extravagant! He even prepared Buddha jumps over the wall for his driver …
It should be known that an ordinary person would have to order this signature dish at least half a month in advance. If it was during the peak period of dining, such as a long holiday, it would have to be ordered much earlier.
Of course, the price was naturally very high. An ordinary working class definitely couldn't afford it.
Xia Ruofei not only did everyone have a serving of Buddha jumps over the wall, but he also had a serving for his driver. He was really rich.
However, the waiter only sighed slightly in his heart and quickly responded, "Alright!"
After the waiter left, Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Come! Try this Buddha jumps over the wall! "
"Let's wait for Qingxue!" said Feng's words.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "You're welcome. She's here to work and we don't know when she'll be done! She's not an outsider … Let's eat first! "
Then, she nodded and said said said said, "Alright! Since the chairman, let's not's, Boss Yun '' ''s's's's's's..
'' ''s's's's is' ''s' thank '''s's.
Xia Ruofei smiled and waved his hand. "It's just a meal. You've worked hard all this time. Just treat it as my reward! Oh yeah, do you want to drink some wine? "
Feng Jing shook her head and said, "I want to focus on enjoying the food. Let's talk about drinking later!"
"Alright! As you wish! "Xia Ruofei said.
The waiter came over to help them open the small jar. Suddenly, a strong fragrance wafted out. Dong Yun, who was tasting Ling Ji's' Buddha jumps over the wall for the first time, couldn't help but take a whiff. Feng Jing couldn't wait to taste it.
The waiter scooped out the various ingredients from the jar. The unique fragrance of Buddha jumps over the wall began to spread in the private room.
It was undeniable that Xia Ruofei's secret recipe had a significant effect on improving the taste of Buddha jumps over the wall. Originally, girls were afraid of getting fat from eating greasy food. However, Feng Jing and Dong Yun couldn't resist the temptation of Buddha jumps over the wall. They ate it with relish.
After a while, they had finished half of the Buddha jumps over the wall in the small jar. The other dishes were barely touched.
At this moment, the waiter knocked on the door. Then, everyone saw Ling Qingxue walking in.
"Qingxue, come and take a seat!" Feng Jing immediately greeted her.
Ling Qingxue smiled and asked, "Is the food here to everyone's taste?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Look at the results of these two beauties. You will know if the food is to your taste …"
Feng Jing was a little embarrassed. She said, "Chairman, you seem to have eaten quite a lot too!"
Xia Ruofei shrugged and said, "Yes. Actually, I ate about the same as Manager Feng …"
Dong Yun couldn't help but smile. It wasn't something to be proud of to eat about the same as a man like Xia Ruofei!
Feng Jing blushed. It was Ling Qingxue who helped her out. She rolled her eyes at Xia Ruofei and said, "Manager Feng, don't bother about this fellow. He has a bad mouth … If you like the food, you can come here more often in the future!"
Feng Jing nodded and said, "Ling Ji's Buddha jumps over the wall is indeed a delicacy. If the price is more affordable … Forget it. Let's maintain the price! If not, I'm worried that I will get fatter soon. It's just right that I can't afford it now … "
Ling Qingxue couldn't help but smile happily. This was equivalent to praising the delicacies of Ling Ji's Private Restaurant.
She then looked at Xia Ruofei. Everything was clear without words. The recipe for Buddha jumps over the wall was provided by Xia Ruofei for free.
Opening a private restaurant was Ling Ji's attempt to develop into a high-end restaurant. The reason why this attempt was so successful was because Xia Ruofei had provided the recipe for 'Buddha jumps over the wall'.
After Ling Qingxue sat down, she asked the waiter to bring a bottle of red wine over. Everyone drank one or two glasses.
Xia Ruofei wanted to take out his newly brewed Semillon for everyone to taste. However, Xie Bing drove the company's Mercedes-Benz today. He didn't bring a bag or anything like that. If he were to make wine out of thin air, he wouldn't be able to explain it. Hence, he gave up on the idea.
Everyone enjoyed their lunch. Although Ling Qingxue, Feng Jing, and Dong Yun weren't very familiar with each other, it seemed that girls were born to be familiar with each other. Soon, the three beauties began to whisper to each other. They even looked at Xia Ruofei and chuckled.
Xia Ruofei was speechless. He didn't believe that Ling Qingxue, Feng Jing, and Dong Yun would have any private conversations. This was simply incomprehensible to men.
After lunch, Xia Ruofei and the other two returned to Taoyuan Farm. Ling Qingxue returned to the headquarters of Ling Ji's Restaurant. Everyone left Ling Ji's Restaurant separately.
…
The next day, Feng Jing took Liu Qian to Heron Island by high-speed rail early in the morning. Xia Ruofei stayed in the company to deal with some backlog of official business.
He first called Ye Linyun and Lei Hu to his office and told them about his plan to expand the security department and recruit drivers. He asked them to find reliable retired comrades. If they couldn't find enough, they could also recruit from the community. The general principle was that those with military experience would be the priority.
When they heard that Xia Ruofei was going to expand the security team to 150 to 200 people, Ye Linyun and Lei Hu were very excited. This meant that more comrades could get employment opportunities. Nowadays, the security positions in the Taoyuan Company had the highest salary among similar jobs. Moreover, the boss was also a veteran and was very generous to everyone. What could be more ideal than this?
Ye Linyun and Lei Hu also expressed on the spot that they would cooperate well with the personnel department. They would definitely complete the recruitment task of the security department successfully.
Xia Ruofei was very assured about the ability and loyalty of Ye Linyun and Lei Hu. With the two of them as the gatekeepers, Xia Ruofei didn't have to worry so much about the recruitment.
Dong Yun and the others were also very efficient. In just one day, the plan to buy a car, the plan to rent a house for employees, the plan to expand the farm, the plan to build a branch of the pharmaceutical factory, and so on were all sent to his desk.
When Xia Ruofei saw the thick plans, he couldn't help but have a headache.
Feng Jing had only been away for half a day, but he already missed her. If Feng Jing were here, he would probably throw all these work to Feng Jing to deal with.
Now that there was no other way, Xia Ruofei could only look at these plans by himself.
Xia Ruofei signed and approved the plan to buy buses and senior management cars. Dong Yun proposed to buy three Golden Dragon buses and six Mercedes-Benz S350s, which would cost about 11 million yuan in total.
In addition, Xia Ruofei also carefully looked at the rental subsidies for employees. Dong Yun's plan was very thorough. The subsidy plan used the base subsidy and additional factors. The base subsidy was the same, but there would be different additional factors according to the length of service in the company and the level. Multiplying the two factors together would be the amount of rental subsidies.
In addition, the rental subsidies were issued to employees who actually rented a house. They had to file the rental contracts. If they were found to have used false rental methods to obtain subsidies, they would be severely punished and the illegally obtained subsidies would be recovered.
In other words, if the employees continued to live in the company dormitory or in their own homes, they would not be able to receive rental subsidies.
Xia Ruofei looked at it and felt that this plan was very strict. The subsidy amount was also reasonable. Therefore, he did not hesitate and quickly signed and approved it.
As for the expansion of the farm and the construction of the pharmaceutical branch factory, Xia Ruofei did not make a decision immediately because it involved the coordination with the local government. Instead, he wanted to wait for Feng Jing to come back and discuss it with everyone.
After busily dealing with the daily affairs, the day quickly passed.
Feng Jing also called. They had successfully picked up Xu Lang and his assistant. They were now on the high-speed rail.
From Heron Island to Sanshan, it would take more than an hour by high-speed rail.
After Xia Ruofei received the news, he waited for a while. Then, he drove the Knight XV off-road vehicle and asked Xie Bing to drive the Mercedes-Benz. The two vehicles left Taoyuan Farm one after the other and went straight to Sanshan South Railway Station. It also took 40 to 50 minutes to drive from the farm to the South Railway Station.
These two vehicles were already the best vehicles in Taoyuan Farm. In fact, the Knight XV was not very suitable for receiving guests.
Xia Ruofei once again realized the need for the company to buy a few good vehicles.
On the way to the South Railway Station, Xia Ruofei specially called Ling Ji Private Kitchen to confirm the menu for tonight. He also informed them of his approximate time of arrival. This way, the private kitchen could calculate the time and prepare the Buddha jumps over the wall in advance.
After waiting for more than 20 minutes at the South Railway Station, the high-speed rail that Feng Jing and the others took arrived at the station.
In the past, it would take at least three to four hours to drive from Sanshan to Heron Island. Now, the high-speed rail only took more than an hour. The time was more than halved. This was indeed the amazing speed of Huaxia.
Xia Ruofei stood at the exit with Xie Bing. After a while, he saw Feng Jing, Liu Qian, and Xu Lang, a total of four people, walking out of the passage.
After passing through the gate, Xu Lang waved in the direction of Xia Ruofei. The old man looked hale and hearty.
"Uncle Xu, welcome to Sanshan!" Xia Ruofei greeted him with a smile. "You've had a hard journey!"
Xu Lang laughed and said, "Mr. Xia, the high-speed rail in our motherland really opened my eyes! It's fast and stable. If I closed the curtains, I wouldn't even feel the car moving! "
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Yes! Didn't a foreign friend do an experiment? He put a coin on the high-speed rail, and it didn't fall down until the end. This shows how stable our country's high-speed rail is! "
"Amazing!" Xu Lang gave him a thumbs up. "The strength of our motherland is shown in many ways. This also makes us, the people of Huaxia, feel proud!"
Xu Lang was a very old-fashioned Hong Kong person. He was full of a sense of belonging to his motherland, and he was very disgusted by the way some young people in Hong Kong were doing things. He once used the metaphysics of Feng Shui to say that a small group of people were destroying their own karma, and that there would be a big disaster in the future.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Uncle Xu, the car is just in front. Let's go and have dinner first! I've already booked a place … "
"Okay, okay!" Xu Lang laughed and said, "I heard from Miss Feng on the way that Mr. Xia wants to treat us to the most authentic Buddha jumps over the wall. I'm looking forward to it!"
Xia Ruofei then remembered that Xu Lang seemed to have said that he was an authentic glutton, and he was obsessed with food.
Xia Ruofei also felt that his idea yesterday was correct. If Xu Lang didn't want the reward, then he could express his gratitude in other ways!
The group took two cars and soon arrived at Ling Ji Private Kitchen.
The son-in-law wanted to hold a banquet here, and he had even booked the menu in advance. He even called in the evening to ask about it. It could be seen that he valued his guests, so Ling Ji Private Kitchen didn't dare to be negligent. All the preparation work was done very well.
Xia Ruofei and the group were quickly welcomed into Flying Snow Pavilion.
They had just sat down for a while when Buddha jumps over the wall was served. Many of the ingredients for Buddha jumps over the wall needed a few days to prepare, and even if it was half-finished, it still needed to be simmered for half a day before it could be ready to be served.
The fact that Buddha jumps over the wall could be served so quickly meant that the kitchen had put in a lot of effort to calculate the time.
Pots of Buddha jumps over the wall were opened amidst the rich aroma.
After tasting a small mouthful, Xu Lang was full of praise for the Buddha jumps over the wall, and he kept giving it a thumbs up.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Uncle Xu, eat slowly! I've also prepared a few bottles of good wine. Let's drink and chat! "
After that, Xia Ruofei gestured to the waiter, and the waiter immediately took out two bottles of wine from the bag that Xia Ruofei brought.
