Chapter 383 Banggeng prepares to do business

Li Shengli ignored Liu Xikui, and there was no relationship between them anymore. Liu Lan went to Lou Xiaoe's restaurant and found Sha Zhu just like in the plot.

Liu Lan is not young anymore, and she cannot compete with other young girls when looking for other jobs.

Liu Lan found Sha Zhu and wanted Sha Zhu to introduce her to work in Lou Xiao'e's restaurant, but Sha Zhu had no say in this matter. Moreover, Liu Lan was Li Huaide's lover before, and many unpleasant things happened between Liu Lan and Sha Zhu.

Liu Lan had no other choice. Ordinary restaurants would not want to hire someone of her age, and even if they offered a job, the salary would be very low. So she found Sha Zhu. After all, she and Sha Zhu were old acquaintances, so she wanted Sha Zhu to help her.

Sha Zhu originally didn't intend to help her, but Liu Lan had indeed helped him a lot in the cafeteria before, so Sha Zhu found the manager of the restaurant. The manager knew that Sha Zhu knew his boss so he gave him face and let Liu Lan join the kitchen.

When Liu Lan first entered the kitchen, she was quite timid and did not dare to bring anything home.

Just when the steel rolling mill was being reformed, Qin Huairu in the courtyard was also a little worried. Banggeng had been back for such a long time but still had no job. Moreover, something happened when Banggeng had a fight with the two brothers of the Liu family. Now the whole street knows Banggeng's nickname, and Banggeng has not been out for a long time.

Moreover, the old man was angry about Li Shengli's incident again, and now Yi Zhonghai has become even more incoherent in speaking and doing things. Qin Huairu was originally thinking about whether Yi Zhonghai could help find a job for her son, but now Yi Zhonghai is in such a state that he barely needs someone to take care of his pee and pee, let alone find a job for Banggeng.

The most important thing is that the old man has retired a long time ago, and no one in the factory gives him face.

The most important thing is that Qin Huairu felt very strange. There were so many retired workers who were re-employed outside, why was this old man not among them? She also didn't know whether the old man didn't want to continue working.

Sha Zhu was also worried enough about Bang Geng's work. Sha Zhu had previously suggested that Bang Geng continue to learn cooking with him, but Bang Geng was unwilling to do so. He still thought it was a bit embarrassing. What's more, even if he became a chef, he still had no money, and these people would still remember what happened to him.

Banggeng is a man who cares about his reputation. He doesn't want to be surrounded by a large group of people as soon as he goes out. These people are saying dirty words like thief, jet and so on.

"Banggeng, why don't you come with me to the restaurant?" After returning home that day, the whole family was having dinner. Shazhu looked at Banggeng who was eating silently and asked him again what he thought, "It's not a good idea for you to be idle at home every day. If you can't do it, just come with me to the restaurant and work. This restaurant is owned by Lou Xiao'e. You can just go and tell him when the time comes."

Ever since Banggeng came out of prison, he knew about what happened between his biological mother and Shazhu. He has never been nice to Shazhu. After all, he doesn't want to have an extra half-brother or half-sister.

Banggeng looked at Shazhu with disdain. Who would be willing to be a lousy cook? Now Shazhu seems to be okay and his salary is quite high, but compared with the other people in the yard, Shazhu's salary is nothing.

Look at Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong behind them. They can make enough from just one business deal to make Sha Zhu several months’ salary.

"I won't go. Who knows how many years it will take for me to learn it. By then, how much money a poor cook can earn?" Banggeng rejected Shazhu's suggestion without even thinking about it.

Banggeng used to work in a steel factory. This skill seems to be quite lucrative now, but there is too much work to do. He has to leave home early and come back late every day. It was OK in the factory canteen because there were not many fried dishes, but in a private restaurant like this, there is too much work to do.

"Hey, kid, if you don't want to be my cook, what do you want to do?" Sha Zhu was unhappy when he saw Bang Geng despised his profession. Sha Zhu still valued his craft very much. After all, his craft has brought him so many things. "With your current condition, who would dare to hire you if others ask about your situation?" Sha Zhu's mouth was not only foul but also quick, and he blurted out his true feelings without paying attention.

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, everyone at the table was unhappy. Bang Geng immediately pressed the chopsticks in his hand heavily on the table in front of him, stood up and was about to leave.

When Qin Huairu saw Banggeng's reaction, she quickly stood up and grabbed him: "Banggeng, what are you doing? Don't take it to heart. Your silly uncle just speaks quickly, he didn't mean it."

Qin Huairu said this while trying hard to push the stick back into the seat, and at the same time winked at Sha Zhu.

"Silly dad, look at what you are saying." Xiaodang and Huaihua were also scolding Shazhu.

Knowing that Banggeng is very sensitive, Shazhu is still making such sarcastic remarks at this time. Isn't this just causing trouble for Qin Huairu?

Sha Zhu received the look Qin Huairu gave him and heard what Qin Huairu, Xiaodang and Huaihua said. Then Sha Zhu remembered what kind of person Bang Geng was. He had ignored him for several years because Xu Damao had arranged for Liu Guangfu and Yan Jiekuang to hang a pair of old shoes around his neck. Now, if he didn't agree to his marriage with Qin Huairu because of what he said,

Sha Zhu couldn't help but shudder when he thought of this: "Bang Geng, it's my fault. I shouldn't have said those words."

Shazhu first said humble to Banggeng: "Banggeng, although my words are a bit rough, what else do you want to do if you don't follow me?"

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, Bang Geng paused for a moment, then under Qin Huairu's strong pressure, Bang Geng sat down again and picked up the bowl of rice.

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, the others also agreed with him. With Bang Geng's conditions, not only could he not be hired by a factory, but even ordinary private places would not want him.

"Bang Geng, what are you going to do? Your silly uncle is getting paid so much now, what do you want to do if you don't work with him?" Qin Huairu also wanted to see what her son was going to do. "Or you can take over my job at the steel mill, and I can take this opportunity to retire."

Qin Huairu's plan was very good. She could get an extra pension by retiring on her own.

"I'll take a look first. If it doesn't work out, I'll try some small business. Nowadays, those small businesses out there make money so quickly..." Bang Geng has been inquiring about what's going on outside these past two days. Looking at the vendors setting up stalls outside, Bang Geng is very envious of their income.

"My dear grandson, running a small business is very tiring. Can you bear the hardship of going out early and coming back late every day?" Jia Zhang knew very well the difficulties of doing business. It was just like Sha Zhu going to work in a restaurant.

"Hey, Banggeng, why don't you go find Xu Damao and ask him to help you do business." Qin Jingru, who had been eating quietly, opened her mouth and put forward her suggestion.

"I say, Banggeng, you can do business with anyone but don't get involved with Xu Damao anymore." When Shazhu heard Qin Jingru's bad idea, he couldn't sit still anymore. Everyone knew what kind of person Xu Damao was.
