Chapter 388: Eat white food during the day and white silk at night (5500)
"I definitely remember this." Chen Qingrong did not deny it. "Little Red Book does have its uses, but there are too many crazy people on it. I still find it disgusting."
Tang Xiaoru said with a smile, "What if joining Xiaohongshu can bring us a large wave of traffic and help us achieve a small profit target?"
Chen Qingrong immediately changed his words, "Then move in immediately."
"Tsk, didn't you say you don't like the users there? You also said there are more crazy people there."
"I don't like it, but I like money. No one can resist money."
"..."
"What a double-standard man." Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him and said, "Let's put aside the issue of whether to join Xiaohongshu and Weibo for the time being. The most important thing for us right now is to put this matter into practice first."
"If we want to set up a network operations department, do we need to recruit new people or select from the current employees?"
Chen Qingrong tapped his forehead with his fingers, and after a moment he said, "This matter is of great importance. I think we should hold a meeting to discuss it with everyone."
"Okay." Tang Xiaoru nodded, "Then let me finish reading your draft before holding a meeting."
"Yeah." Chen Qingrong took out his phone, "Take your time to look at it. I'll order some takeout for the two of us."
Tang Xiaoru said, "No need to order takeout, I'll finish watching it right away, and then we'll go to a newly opened restaurant on Jianxin Road, across from our company. My mom told me about it."
"Hey, Auntie, how did you know there's a new restaurant there?"
"Because that restaurant was opened by the son of one of my mom's poker friends."
"So, we don't have to pay for meals?" Chen Qingrong's eyes lit up. "I love eating for free the most."
Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him fiercely, "You think too much. I don't plan to tell anyone about this. Besides, the boss doesn't know that his mother and my mother are friends."
Chen Qingrong smiled helplessly, "Well, it looks like I won't be able to eat for free today."
"You've become more successful. Since you can't eat for free during the day, I can treat you to some white silk at night." Tang Xiaoru winked at Chen Qingrong ambiguously.
Chen Qingrong smiled awkwardly and his waist began to ache.
What I mean is that although stockings are an attack speed item, you can’t use them every day to speed up your attack. Even an iron body can’t handle it.
But the problem comes back again. Chen Qingrong just likes attack speed equipment. He knows that his waist will hurt when Tang Xiaoru wears attack speed equipment, but he just can't say no to attack speed equipment.
You know, black and white stockings are really sexy.
After Tang Xiaoru finished looking at the sketch and gave Chen Qingrong some suggestions, the two left the company to have dinner.
Because the newly opened restaurant is just across the street from the company, it saves them time driving.
"Thai food." Chen Qingrong stood at the door and looked at the fake elephant used for decoration, and said helplessly, "I really can't get used to Thai food."
Tang Xiaoru took his arm and acted coquettishly, "Hey, I want to eat, so you can eat with me once. At worst, you can just pick out an outfit you like from wardrobe number one for me to wear tonight."
When talking about wardrobe number one, Tang Xiaoru's cheeks turned hot.
In their loving little nest, there is a magical wardrobe.
The wardrobe did not contain normal clothes that could be worn out, but various QQ uniforms and some small props to add fun.
Chen Qingrong called it Wardrobe No. 1.
As for the reason, Chen Qingrong explained that he had seen many novels and film and television works, in which people would use terms such as No. 1 person or No. 1 file to indicate that someone or something was important. The things in No. 1 wardrobe were also very important to their lives, so it was called this name.
Chen Qingrong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he whispered in her ear, "You said it, so just wait and see tonight."
Tang Xiaoru's cheeks flushed, and she didn't respond. She just dragged him into the restaurant.
"Sawadika~"
The waitress bowed slightly and greeted them.
Chen Qingrong was stunned for a moment, and whispered to Tang Xiaoru, "This restaurant is really willing to spend money. They actually hired Thai women to be waitresses. It's high-end, too high-end."
The waiter said weakly, "Sir, I am a local, not Thai."
"Forehead."
Chen Qingrong was embarrassed.
Tang Xiaoru smiled and said to the waiter, "There are two of us, so let's arrange a quieter seat."
"Okay, please follow me."
The waiter smiled and took them to a table in the back of the restaurant. No one was dining there, and the table was relatively close to the violinist who was performing very hard, so it was considered a good seat.
"Please scan the QR code to place your order." The waiter brought up the lemonade and reminded them.
"Okay." Tang Xiaoru took out her phone and scanned the code. When she saw the waiter had left, she put the phone in front of Chen Qingrong and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Chen Qingrong pouted, "I've never eaten Thai food, so I don't know which one is better. You're knowledgeable so just order some. I'll eat whatever you order."
After a pause, he added, "Order me some coconut milk. I prefer coconut milk."
"Ok."
Tang Xiaoru started ordering food on her mobile phone.
Chen Qingrong also took out his mobile phone and connected to the store's wireless network smoothly and naturally.
The wireless network password of this type of restaurant is basically the same as that of large supermarkets, all of which are eight eights. This is also to make it easier for guests to connect to the Internet.
Only those stingy people would like to set messy and hard-to-remember wireless passwords, without any structure at all.
drop.
Liang Qingyun sent a photo to Chen Qingrong.
Chen Qingrong clicked on it and saw that it was a photo Liang Qingyun secretly took of two people holding hands. It should be him and Xiaoyuan.
Chen Qingrong teased, "You and Xiaoyuan are holding hands now? If you dare to hold hands now, I dare not imagine what you will do in the future. I despise you, despise you."
Liang Qingyun, "Brother Erhu, please don't tell her that I sent you the photos. She hasn't decided yet whether to agree to me or not. I don't want you to mess it up. I despise you."
Chen Qingrong, "Look at what you said. I'm your matchmaker, how can I ruin your relationship? Besides, what do you mean she hasn't considered whether to agree to you? You two are holding hands, and my wife and I saw her get out of your car that morning. You two must have done something bad on the night of your birthday, right?"
Liang Qingyun, "I really didn't do anything bad, but we did stay together that night, and I still respect her."
Liang Qingyun, "As for why she is still considering it, it's because she said that the gap between our two families is quite large, and she always feels that it is not realistic. I also told her that she and I are just us, and it does not involve our two families, but she is still a little hesitant."
Chen Qingrong, "You are being childish. Dating is dating, but when it comes to marriage, it is not something you two can decide. It is really a matter between two families. Your family is so rich, and Xiaoyuan's family is just an ordinary family. It is normal for her to have concerns in this regard."
Liang Qingyun, "What should I do? Just wait like this?"
Chen Qingrong, "If you really love her, I think you can wait forever, or you can take some practical actions to give her a sense of security. Women value security the most."
Liang Qingyun, "Does security refer to money or something else? Question."
"Who are you chatting with?" Tang Xiaoru couldn't help but ask when she saw Chen Qingrong typing quickly with his head down.
Chen Qingrong handed her the phone and said, "It was Liang Qingyun. He told me about him and Xiaoyuan."
Tang Xiaoru tilted her head to look at it, then chuckled, "He and Xiaoyuan are developing quite fast, but you are right, he seems to be less mature than Xiaoyuan, and he doesn't consider things as comprehensively as Xiaoyuan."
Chen Qingrong said, "It's normal. Men generally don't mature as early as women. Besides, he has been spoiled since he was a child. To put it nicely, he is naive and simple. To put it bluntly, he is inexperienced, clear-headed and stupid. Naturally, she doesn't think as much as Xiaoyuan."
"But wife, do you think they can be together in the end?"
Tang Xiaoru hesitated for a moment before saying, "If the storyline is developed according to idol dramas, such as the Cinderella-meets-the-prince plot, the final result will be good. However, after seeing the experience of Gao Qiang and Bing Bing, I am not optimistic about them."
"Don't you think Xiaoyuan's situation is similar to that of Mr. Liang, Gao Qiang, and Bingbing? One is a strong woman and a weak man, the other is a strong man and a weak woman. Neither of their families is equal."
"So you think they can't succeed?" "How dare I say that?" Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at Chen Qingrong. "If I say they can't succeed, and they really do succeed, won't you use this to ridicule me?"
Chen Qingrong laughed obscenely, "How do you know I'm capable of doing that?"
"Don't I know you? As soon as you stick your butt out, I know what shit you're going to do."
"..."
Chen Qingrong thought to himself, how dare Xiaoru say that I am disgusting? Doesn’t she also say such disgusting things before meals?
Soon, the waiter brought the dishes. The first dish was curry. Looking at the color of it, Chen Qingrong really had no appetite.
The two of them had four dishes and one soup. After paying the bill and leaving the restaurant, Chen Qingrong began to complain, "It's so expensive. Let's not eat Thai food in the future. The portions are small and we can't feel full."
Tang Xiaoru gently held his arm and smiled, "You said the same thing when we were having Western food before. You, don't be so stingy. You make money to enjoy life. It's nice to have some petty bourgeoisie once in a while."
"Well."
Chen Qingrong didn't say anything else.
After returning to the company, Tang Xiaoru personally convened a meeting, which mainly discussed network operations.
During the meeting, Tang Xiaoru mentioned the establishment of a new department and asked employees who had experience in network operations. What the couple didn't expect was that Qinqin, who wore thick glasses every day and looked unconfident when talking to anyone in the company, was actually an Internet celebrity in private.
The total number of her fans on Bilibili and Douyin's Xiaohongshu has reached a "terrifying" number of more than 200,000, making her a "big internet celebrity" with a considerable scale.
But unfortunately, all the accounts she created are for sharing skin care products, making her a beauty blogger. These accounts have nothing to do with the needs of Tang Xiaoru and others, so Tang Xiaoru cannot let her shoulder all the burden of this new department.
After some discussion, Tang Xiaoru finally made the decision.
A new department is to be opened, and new employees with network operation experience are to be recruited into the company. As for the person in charge of this new department, Tang Xiaoru decided to let Gao Qiang be the person in charge.
This is not because she deliberately promoted Gao Qiang, but mainly because Gao Qiang's sense of smell in this matter is quicker than her and Chen Qingrong, and Gao Qiang is hardworking, easy-going, and has a good relationship with many people in the company. With a little training, he will inevitably become a general of the company in the future.
"Then it's decided. The recruitment of new employees will be held in the near future. Alice, you and another HR will be responsible for this matter. Synchronize it to the online recruitment platform. As for the salary, please set it according to the average salary."
"Well, if there is nothing special to report, let's adjourn the meeting and get back to work."
clap clap.
After Tang Xiaoru finished speaking, Chen Qingrong led the applause, and then the meeting adjourned.
Chen Qingrong did not walk out directly. Instead, he waited until all the employees had left before coming to Tang Xiaoru and tentatively asked her, "Do you really want Gao Qiang to be the head of this new department?"
Tang Xiaoru smiled playfully, "What's the matter? Are you not happy about your good brother promoting you?"
Chen Qingrong hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's not that I don't like it. I'm definitely happy that you promoted him, but speaking objectively, Gao Qiang has no management experience, so I'm still a little worried."
Tang Xiaoru smiled and patted his arm. "Oh, it's okay. We are here to check it out. There won't be any problems. Besides, after he broke up with Bingbing, he is working like crazy and is eager to prove himself. It's good to give him a chance to gain some experience."
Then he changed the subject and said, "If he is really not competent, then we can replace him. However, if it really comes to that, you will be the one to notify him."
Chen Qingrong's mouth twitched, and he said resentfully, "You are so good, Tang Xiaoru. You promote me when it's time to promote me, and it's my turn when it's time to oust me, right? Aren't you making him hate me?"
"You two are good brothers, he won't bear a grudge against you. Besides, as long as he does a good job, he won't give us the chance to kick him out."
"Hopefully."
……
After get off work in the evening, Chen Qingrong and Tang Xiaoru left the company first.
They are going to Tang Xiaoru's grandparents' house for dinner tonight. Tang Xiaoru's parents will also be there. The reason is very simple: tonight is Tang Xiaoru's grandmother's birthday.
Chen Qingrong asked as he drove, "Why didn't you tell us in advance about such a big thing as grandma's birthday? We are so embarrassed to go there without any gifts prepared."
Tang Xiaoru explained with a smile, "You don't understand the situation. My grandma doesn't like birthday celebrations. When she turned 68 two years ago, my parents wanted to give her a big party, but she didn't want to. So, for her birthday this time, our family just needs to have a meal with her. There's no need to prepare anything else."
Chen Qingrong was a little curious, "Why doesn't grandma like to celebrate her birthday? My grandma had a birthday party before, and I thought all elderly people would like that."
Tang Xiaoru shook her head. "Everyone has different ideas. My grandma thinks that the older you are, the more unlucky it is to have a big wedding."
Chen Qingrong's mouth twitched, and he asked weakly, "Then when I see grandma, can I still say auspicious words like 'May you be blessed with great fortune and live as long as the Southern Mountains'?"
Tang Xiaoru said with a smile, "Of course you can. My grandma just doesn't like to celebrate her birthday, not to hear auspicious words. What are you afraid of?"
"That's good, that's good." Chen Qingrong breathed a sigh of relief.
He had prepared a lot of birthday speeches, and if he couldn't say them, he would be suffocated to death.
Tang Xiaoru suddenly changed the subject, "However, even though we are just accompanying my grandma for dinner, we still have to buy some things. Let's stop by a certain store and buy some new clothes for my grandma, grandpa and grandma."
"By the way, buy my grandma a gold bracelet. My grandma prefers gold."
Chen Qingrong said, "Then I, as the grandson-in-law, will pay for this. Don't compete with me for the bill later."
Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him and said, "Your money is my money. It doesn't matter who pays for it, right?"
"It feels different. I like the feeling of making large purchases." Chen Qingrong started pretending.
Tang Xiaoru curled her lips and said, "If you really like to spend a lot of money, then buy me a villa."
"Ah? Buy it in the Magic City?"
"Hmm, or you can give me a courtyard house within the second ring road of Beijing. I don't worship money."
"You'd better kill me."
Chen Qingrong felt wronged and cried.
How many billions would a courtyard house within the second ring road of Beijing cost?
Compared to that, he still felt that the probability of him being able to afford a villa in Shanghai in his lifetime was greater.
As they were talking, the car stopped and the couple quickly entered the store.
When buying clothes for the elderly, there is no need to go to those particularly fashionable brand-name stores, because there is no chance that they will have clothes for the elderly there, unless it is a brand store targeting the elderly.
If you want to buy it, you can just buy it in the large clothing malls.
Tang Xiaoru had a good aesthetic sense and was very patient. She picked out two new sets of clothes for both her grandparents, and then went with Chen Qingrong to buy a gold bracelet and a gold necklace for her grandmother.
Of course, all the money was given by Chen Qingrong.
She wanted to give it to him, but Chen Qingrong refused to let her.
After buying the things, I drove to my grandparents’ house.
After Tang Xiaoru got out of the car, she saw her father's car parked at the door, so she urged Chen Qingrong, "Hurry up and get out of the car, my parents are here."
"I'm coming."
Chen Qingrong took down the bags containing the new clothes one by one. As for the bracelet, it was in Tang Xiaoru's bag.
"Let's go, let's go in."
"it is good."
Tang Xiaoru took Chen Qingrong's arm and walked towards the courtyard with him. As soon as they walked in, they heard an angry roar from the lobby, "Get out of here, you bastard! Don't let me see you again! Get out now!"
This sound...
"It's Grandpa's voice!" Tang Xiaoru's face changed, "Who is Grandpa scolding? Come on, go in and take a look."
Chen Qingrong followed her in hurriedly, and then saw five people in the lobby, Tang Xiaoru's parents, grandparents, and a fat old man. Tang Xiaoru's grandfather was pointing at the fat old man angrily, and it looked like he was going to hit someone.
"Uncle?" Tang Xiaoru exclaimed in surprise, "You're here too? What happened?"
