1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 521 Chapter 523 The strait is gone, Hou Ming’s position is in crisis
Capital City, in the east wing of Baihua Courtyard.

Luo Tao was lying calmly on the leisure chair, reading today's "Daily", with a sleeping little lazy cat lying in his arms.

She is almost four years old, and as long as she is with Luo Tao, she is still very clingy and can't get rid of him.

Luo Tao also enjoyed the early family happiness.

He slowly put down the newspaper, patted the sleeping little girl, and murmured: "It was supposed to come, but it has come."

Since the first Wanwan compatriot returned to his hometown on November [-], the shallow strait no longer exists.

Today all newspapers across the country have reported on this incident.

The little girl shouted without opening her eyes: "Dad...Dad..." Luo Tao thought that what he just said had woken up his daughter.

"What's wrong? Dad is here." He patted her curled up little body very gently.

I don’t know who invented this method of coaxing children to sleep. The whole country likes to pat children on the back. I don’t know if there is any scientific basis for this.

Seeing that the little girl had her eyes closed and didn't respond, Luo Tao called softly again: "Girl?"

There was still no response. As I got closer, I could still hear the little girl's gentle breathing.

Luo Tao pulled the blanket that was draped over the little girl's body, and said with a smile: "The daddy just now, the feeling is that you little girl is talking in your sleep."

With my daughter by my side, everything else seems like a blur.

After wandering for a while, because the weather was getting colder, the little girl couldn't sleep in Luo Tao's arms all the time.

Lifting the corner of the quilt on the kang, he took out the hot water bottle that he had put in to warm the bed earlier, then gently put the little girl into the quilt, covered her, and then patted her gently for a while.

Seeing that the girl's eyes were narrowed, her long eyelashes exposed, and she showed no sign of wanting to wake up, she tiptoed, holding the newspaper on the table with one hand and the hot water bottle on the kang with the other.

Gently close the door.

Then he breathed a sigh of relief, stretched his muscles and bones, lay down on the leisure chair and hugged the little girl for half an hour, which would be impossible for most people to stare at.

I walked to the pool, held the newspaper between my arms, unscrewed the hot water bottle, and drained the cold water inside.

A hot water bottle is not a rare thing. It is a common household item in northern winter.

This is a must-have for singles in winter!

If you don’t have the spare money to buy this thing at home, you can go to the health center to find a larger glass bottle for intravenous drip.

If you don't have the above, then remove the thermos bottle at home and use the bottle bladder as a hot water bottle.

Su Guilan was resting in the north room when she heard a sound in the courtyard, so she went out to take a look. When she saw it was Luo Tao, she asked, "Is the girl sleeping?"

"Oh, I went to bed. Mom, didn't you go out for a walk?"

She patted the hem of her blouse, walked down the steps and said, "Why are you sneaking around? I can be like your dad, who never runs away every day without leaving home."

Regarding the matter of the old couple, Luo Tao, as a son and daughter, didn't have much to say, so he just smiled.

"What's the matter, Mom? I have something to do and need to go out later. Please keep an eye on the little girl."

"Okay, I understand, go about your business." After saying that, she ran to the east wing.

Luo Tao followed him into the room, put down the things in his hands, and took his coat from the hanger. "By the way, Mom, remember to give her milk when she wakes up. She didn't drink at noon."

Su Guilan heard what Luo Tao said with a look of impatience, "Got it, let's go!"

Luo Tao had already stepped over the threshold, and had to stop and look at my mother. At this time, her mind was all on the little girl, and she didn't even look at Luo Tao seriously.

Isn't this self-indulgent?

Without saying much, I drove to Xichang by myself.

When he saw Hou Ming, he asked anxiously: "Are all the responsible persons from various places here?"

Hou Ming followed Luo Tao's steps and answered Luo Tao's question: "Yes, almost all the main people in charge from each region are here."

The group of people headed to the conference room impatiently.

As soon as Luo Tao came in, all the Xichang senior officials who had come to the conference room earlier stood up and said, "Hello, Mr. Luo."

Luo Tao came to the main seat and sat down. He pressed his hand and motioned for them all to sit down.

"To be polite, we won't talk about it today. I think everyone knows something about the poisoning case at the Shanghai Hotel at the end of October.

…1000 people were poisoned at a dinner party for 700 people. It’s really appalling.

Although this incident did not happen in our Xichang, it sounded the alarm for us about food safety.

Think about it, these [-] people may be connected to hundreds of families... When customers come to eat here, they trust us, and we can't put their trust in the belly of a dog.

If you fail them today, no one will believe you tomorrow.

What kind of behavior is it to make unsafe and unhealthy food and then sell it to customers who trust us? "

Luo Tao looked around both sides and continued: "The person who stepped on the horse was seeking wealth and murder, or an acquaintance committed the crime."

The heads of the various regions present were all nervous. Seeing Luo Tao being so angry, they did not dare to breathe loudly. The air in the conference room was condensed.

It’s not surprising that Luo Tao was angry about this. Later, many diseases were not caused by food, especially the upcoming hepatitis A, which was caused by people in Shanghai liking to eat raw clams (han).

After Luo Tao calmed down, "This time I urgently summoned everyone to Beijing, I want to tell you that you must tighten the string of food safety. Anyone who dares to relax will be told: get out."

These two words are more important than anything else. After Luo Tao finished speaking, how many people in the conference room dared to turn around and look at him.

“Xichang doesn’t raise idlers, and it certainly doesn’t raise black sheep.”

"Food safety is a top priority, not only for the Xichang Building, but also for the Xichang Vegetable Basket Project. In the future, the food safety inspection of the Xichang Building can only be [-]% higher than the national standard. Who can't do it within a year?" Looking at both sides, Simply said: "Leave."

Luo Tao always speaks unscripted in every meeting. If he is passionate, he will speak more, and if he is not passionate, he will speak less. In short, the length of the meeting depends on his mood.

A thought suddenly came to his mind, "One more thing, I heard that many people in coastal areas like to eat raw food, right?" Luo Tao asked several people in charge of coastal areas.

Someone replied: "Yes, Mr. Luo, this is a bit like the sashimi of my childhood."

Luo Tao frowned and said dissatisfied: "I have no control over other restaurants. In the future, Xichang Restaurant's dishes, in addition to cucumbers, carrots, etc., all animals and seafood must be processed at high temperatures.

Especially people in Shanghai and Hainan like to eat raw clams. I personally think this is very bad. Sometimes when I read what is said in the newspaper, I wonder if hepatitis A is caused by this thing. Comrades in Shanghai and Hainan, please do a survey after you go back. one look? "

Luo Tao mentioned the hairy clam as the source of hepatitis A in a casual chat.

This is not something Luo Tao knew because of his rebirth. In fact, someone had raised this possibility in the early years. It is unknown why it was not found out at that time.

They naturally nodded in agreement and said they would investigate the matter when they got back.

Luo Tao's tone became calmer again now, and the next meeting became more relaxed, "Let me give you an example that everyone knows, that is, if you eat too many green beans before they are cooked, they can be poisoned.

... Cooking also pays attention to the mutual restraint of the five elements. Not all vegetables can be mixed together. I know that eating eel with dog meat will kill you. "

Every time Luo Tao said something, they took notes carefully, not daring to miss a sentence. They were really afraid that they would not be able to accurately convey Luo Tao's meeting spirit when they returned. “The current Xichang Restaurant is no longer the small restaurant that opened in a corner of Houhai with only seven people. After years of vigorous development, in addition to the restaurant, we have also expanded into industries such as Xichang Vegetable Basket and Xichang Winery.

Without bragging, there will be more in the future.

In the future, we will strengthen the training and assessment of our personnel. For example, chefs, waiters, factory operators, and management must all pass an inspection screen, and those who are capable will be promoted and those who are mediocre will be demoted.

Our team must not only improve in quantity, but also in quality. "

During this food safety meeting, Luo Tao also revealed to them many times that he wanted to lay off employees.

The time has not been announced, but the standard has been set.

As for who is capable and who is mediocre, just let time test it.

He ignored their surprised expressions and said to himself: "Back then, our goal was just to surpass Dongxing Tower. In the future, we will build the first internationally renowned restaurant in China, so that all foreigners will have a feeling after leaving. : If you haven’t eaten Xichanglou’s food, you haven’t been to China.”

These words were very morale-boosting, and the applause of the meeting under the leadership of Hou Ming lasted for a long time.

This one-man show by Luo Tao lasted for more than two hours.

There was really nothing more to say, so the meeting ended.

In Hou Ming's office, "Why is Liu Xiang not here today? What is he busy with now?"

As soon as Luo Tao entered the meeting, he found that Liu Xiang, one of the top executives of Xichang, was not present. He didn't say anything, but he had already been blamed in his heart.

Hou Ming was busy pouring tea for Luo Tao, "Brother, this...I don't know much about this. You should ask Manager Qin about this, right?"

He answered Luo Tao's questions very deliberately.

Luo Tao still didn't know what happened here, so he said in a deep voice: "I just want to hear what you have to say."

Hou Ming paused and hesitated. Seeing Luo Tao's serious face, he knew that there was no room for negotiation on this matter.

So he boldly said: "Manager Qin asked for three days of sick leave on his behalf."

Luo Tao was confused, "Oh, what's the disease?"

"It's not mentioned in the leave note, so I can't ask."

"Did you approve the fake or Qin Chun's?"

"It's Manager Qin."

Hou Ming answered honestly, not daring to hide anything.

After hearing this, Luo Tao's face showed an unnoticeable change, and he held the handle of the tea cup with his hand. This time he secretly made a decision in his heart that he would kill a chicken on a large scale to scare the monkeys at the right time in the future.

But he said to Hou Ming calmly: "Oh, that's it. Forget about the sick leave, tomorrow you will go to his home to visit on behalf of me and the company."

Hou Ming didn't ask too many questions and just said, "Okay."

"From now on, we must organize people to express condolences to senior staff who ask for sick leave, and don't care about anything." Luo Tao hit him pointedly again.

Seeing that nothing happened, he prepared to go home. When he passed by Qin Chun's office, he took a special look and said to Hou Ming, "Tomorrow, you can change offices with Manager Qin."

Hou Ming was stunned, and so was his secretary. Why did he suddenly say that he wanted to change offices?

He really couldn't think of what Luo Tao was singing.
Facing Luo Tao's non-negotiable eyes, he said, "Okay."

Luo Tao glanced at him secretly, and he could see the unwillingness in his heart.

After all, he was suddenly demoted from the symbolic second-in-command in Xichang to the third-in-command for no reason, which would be uncomfortable for anyone.

But now Luo Tao didn't want to explain anything to him, so he strode out of the Xichang Company's office building in Wangfujing.

As soon as Luo Tao left, there was an explosion within the company.

"No way, General Manager Hou started his career following his boss?"

"This matter can still be false, it's still being spread."

"What do you think the boss is thinking? Now we are changing offices. In the future, we are planning to remove General Manager Hou. This is too..."

"Hush! Be careful and don't talk about state affairs."

For a time, people in the company said that Hou Ming had offended Luo Tao, and there were even rumors that Luo Tao was preparing to imitate the founding kings of previous dynasties and attack the elders of Xichang.

None of the two parties expressed dissatisfaction or happiness, and they all carried out the handover work in an orderly manner.

The next day, Hou Ming changed offices with Qin Qiu, and afterwards he went to her house to visit Liu Xiang with condolences.

In this way, the matter became more and more troublesome.

Later, with the heads of Xichang Buildings from various places who came to Beijing for meetings, it spread to various units under Xichang.

Some small newspapers went so far as to make waves out of the scandal, making it look like a palace fight.

Now everyone in the capital knew that Xichang might have to change generals, and some major newspapers also followed suit.

Luo Tao, who took the lead in this matter, felt like a needle was thrust into the sea afterwards, without any response.

The less he responded, the more it showed that the matter was over. After all, the change of office was true.

"What do you think? Hou Ming is the one who followed you to start the family. He has worked hard all these years without credit... When he was the manager, Qin Chun was still a waiter. You don't have to worry about hurting people's hearts by doing this."

Facing Zhu Lin's accusation, Luo Tao remained calm and said: "You don't need to talk about this matter. I know in my heart who has contributed or not? If you have nothing else, I would like to ask you to go out. I want to be quiet."

Zhu Lin snorted coldly: "One day you will regret it."

Looking at the back of her leaving angrily, Luo Tao muttered softly, "Long hair has short knowledge."

Luo Tao did what he did that day to hit Hou Ming intentionally, and he blamed him for his lack of food.

Although he knew that Liu Xiang was not really ill, Hou Ming, as the general manager of Xichang, was very conciliatory in handling the matter.

After years of testing, Luo Tao also knew that Hou Ming was not as strong as Qin Chun in the company's business capabilities.

As for why he is still allowed to sit in the position of general manager, firstly, he is a veteran, and secondly, he is loyal. As long as Luo Tao orders something, he will complete it without compromise.

This is something that no one else has, and at the same time, it is also what Luo Tao likes the most.

But now he encountered some things and actually acted as a peacemaker, and he didn't tell the truth to Luo Tao, how could Luo Tao not be angry.

Now it's just a change of office, but he hasn't really removed his general manager.

Why did Luo Tao do this?There is his own consideration here.
