Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 94: Li Ji

Views:

There are four major families in Shengjing Province, including Lin Bai and Su Yang. The companies under the names of these four families almost monopolize half of the economy in Shengjing Province.

The Lin family runs a pharmaceutical company and the Bai family runs a private hospital. The two have always had a good relationship with the outside world, with one producing and the other selling.

Of the other two, the Su family is involved in the largest number of industries, including antiques, real estate, electronics, catering, clothing, etc., and the Yang family's main industry is the supply of medicinal materials. However, the Yang family and the Lin family have always had a hostile relationship, so The Yang family's medicinal materials will never be supplied to the Lin family.

Among the four major families, the Bai family has always kept aloof from the world. However, although the Bai family acts in a low-key manner, it is the one with the deepest background among the four major families. The reason is that although the Bai family in Shengjing and the Bai family in Kyoto are not the same family, they are They are of the same origin.

The Su family is the most flamboyant. It can be seen from their involvement in all walks of life that the Su family is very ambitious. When Su Mingyuan, the current patriarch of the Su family, succeeded to the throne, he made even bolder claims that he would make the Su family prosperous within ten years. Eight years have passed since they became the first family in Shengjing Province. The Su family has changed from the fourth place to the second family in Shengjing Province after the Lin family.

Under the four major families, there are two more worth mentioning, namely the Shengjing Li family and the Shengjing Qin family.

The Qin family in Shengjing is Qin Zhen's family, and the Li family in Shengjing is the family where Li Mo comes from.

The Qin family in Shengjing is a famous family. In terms of historical origin, the Qin family is deeper than the four major families. However, Qin Zhen has never bothered to rank, so the Qin family does not have the name of the "four major families", but it has the name of the "four major families". A distinguished family with real family status.

Twenty years ago, among the four major families in Shengjing, there was not the Bai family, but the Li family. However, in recent years, the Li family has experienced frequent troubles and its financial resources have been greatly reduced, which has allowed the outsiders, the Bai family, to join the four major families.

The Li family in Shengjing has only one industry, catering. From five-star hotels to fast food chains, the most famous restaurant in Shengjing is none other than the Li family.

The streets and alleys of Shengjing Province are full of restaurants of the Li family. The golden plaques "Li Ji" clearly show the extraordinaryness of this family.

The 'Li Family' plaque was inscribed by a senior official of Shengjing Province more than 30 years ago. It is of extraordinary significance, so it is regarded as a symbol of the Li family and hung on every shop.

Li Mo was sitting in a 'Li Ke' shop at the entrance of Xisi Hutong, eating Li Ke's signature 'Yangchun Noodles'. After taking a few bites, he frowned slightly.

The taste of 'Yangchun Noodles' ten years ago was completely different from what it is now. The quantity was also much smaller, and the bowl was still the same big bowl. Unfortunately, the number of noodles was reduced by half, and the taste became even more unpalatable.

Looking around, the environment in the store was extremely unhygienic. At noon, including Li Mo, there were only two customers eating here, and the store was empty.

It’s no wonder that this kind of catering is so popular.

Li Mo sighed, threw down the ten dollars and wanted to leave. The waiter came over and said, "Sir, thirty-one bowls of Yangchun noodles."

Li Mo was startled for a moment, then took out the money and made up for it.

Li Mo asked: "I remember there used to be a master named Yu in this shop. The noodles he made were delicious. Is that master still there?"

"You said Boss Yu, he quit five years ago."

"Is it due to health? Master Yu has only turned fifty this year, right?"

"It's not because of health. Master Yu changed jobs. He has worked here for more than ten years and his salary has never been increased. He went to the Qin family's store and is now the chef. He earns tens of thousands a month. ”

"Master Yu's craftsmanship is so good, why don't you give him a salary increase?"

The waiter smiled: "Has anyone in Li Ji's store ever received a salary increase?"

Li Mo frowned.

The waiter left, and Li Mo saw that when the waiter handed the received money to the counter, he left part of it behind.

Li Mo walked out of 'Li Ji', crossed a street, and saw a 'Qin Ji Noodle House'.

When we walked in, it was already full and there were more than a dozen guests waiting in line. This scene was in stark contrast to the deserted Li family.

The environment in the store is spotless, and every waiter wears a headgear, mask, and gloves.

Although this is just a small store, in terms of environment, it is no less than a star hotel.

Li Mo stood behind more than a dozen guests and waited in line for ten minutes before getting a seat.

The price is clearly marked on the wall of the shop, and it is written clearly, Yangchun Noodles are ten yuan.

The fragrant Yangchun noodles were delivered, and an extra bowl of 'barley tea' was also given.

Li Mo only took one bite and was impressed. The taste was no different from ten years ago.

There is still a difference. Ten years ago, this person's surname was Li, but now his surname is Qin.

"The eldest...eldest young master?"

While Li Mo was eating noodles, a well-dressed man passed by him and recognized him at a glance.

"Uncle Yu." When Li Mo saw this person, he was startled and stood up.

This man's name is Yu Yonggui, and he is exactly the Master Yu that Li Mo wants to meet.

"Young master, when did you come back? Why didn't you call me when you came back? Oh, look at my memory. My phone number has been changed a long time ago. Blame me, blame me."

"Young Master, you are exactly the same as you were ten years ago, your appearance has not changed at all."

Li Mo smiled and said: "Don't call me the eldest young master. I am no longer the eldest young master of the Li family in Shengjing, and you, Uncle Yu, are no longer Li Ji's people."

Yu Yonggui was a little embarrassed and said: "Young master, it's really... really... that I left the Li family..."

"Needless to say, I just saw everything. Your choice is right."

Yu Yonggui's eyes were firm: "Young Master, I don't care about others, but if it's you who says something, I will quit my job right now. I will do whatever you ask me to do!"

"If it weren't for the eldest mistress, I, Yu Yonggui, would have been finished a long time ago. Twenty years ago, I was given two million for free to treat my mother's illness. Who am I? I was just a boy at the time, and my monthly salary was less than Three hundred yuan, I haven't even repaid this kindness yet," Yu Yonggui choked.

"Don't mention the past, Uncle Yu. By the way, where is my brother Yu Dali? Is he in school?"

Yu Yonggui showed an angry look on his face: "That bastard ran away ten years ago."

"Ah? Ran away?"

"Just a few days after you ran away from home, that bastard seemed to have something wrong with him. He said he wanted to learn martial arts, and then he left and never came back."

"But you don't have to worry about him. That bastard will send a letter back every few months, and sometimes he will send photos. He still looks like that. He is dark and strong and healthy. He has never had a cold since he was a child. He is so disobedient. I have scolded him many times. I have tried both soft and hard methods, but he just won’t come back. After so many years, he has never cared about me. Instead, he has asked about you again and again, and I don’t have yours. News, hey..."

"It's okay."

"Young master, let's go and sit inside. There are too many people here and it's not convenient to talk."

"good."

"Uncle Yu, don't call me eldest young master. You should just call me by my name."

"I understand, young master."
