Chapter 196 Vice President (Nine Updates)
The banquet ended several days ago, and Suming was still feeling the pinch.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
That day, when he settled the bill, it totaled 136,000! The bulk of it was alcohol, and at least half of that was guzzled down by Su Meng himself!
Even for a five-star hotel, even for a high-class place, that meal was ridiculously expensive!
Zhao Yun even got wind of it and called specially to tease him, saying something about thanking Mr. Su for donating to the hotel and how he should send a "Good Samaritan" plaque to Mr. Su when he had time.
"Why must brothers make things difficult for each other!"
But on second thought, having gotten all those big and small bosses utterly drunk, even though it cost a hefty sum in alcohol, he had saved on the expense of taking them to nightclubs for a happy time... After a few out-of-town bosses woke up, none of them mentioned drinking again, presumably, no one would dare challenge Suming to a drinking contest in the future.
"Looking at it this way, I've actually reversed a bad practice in the business world!"
"Mr. Su, your cousin is too much, even the professional drinking companions can't match his tolerance, he's definitely talented. With that capacity for liquor, he could easily land a job paying two or three hundred thousand a year."
Zhang Siming half-joked and then handed a pile of company certificates to Suming.
"There's also the matter of hiring some clerical staff. Especially an accountant," Zhang Siming reminded.
Currently, Taoyuan Fisheries Company was nothing but a shell, with Suming as the boss and a bald man as the sole person handling specific tasks. Physical labor aside, which could be taken care of with temporary hires, a dedicated accountant was a must.
Over the past few days, Zhang Siming had helped with the accounting, and once the fish produce from Shuijun Lake and the reservoir were all sold, the total revenue had already approached ten million! Managing such a large sum required accounting and tax payments, and Suming still needed to prepare for investing in a distillery, next year's fish fry and feed for Shuijun Lake and the reservoir...
There was Zhao Yun, still wearing that utterly out-of-place pajama set with lots of bear patterns, speaking seriously about the preliminary plan for the distillery. He said if Suming wanted a major share, the investment had to exceed six million.
"I just... " Suming slapped his forehead. Just a few minutes earlier, he had been a millionaire, but now, after all the ins and outs, the available funds in hand were still the two million left from selling Monkey Wine.
"Money, oh money, the more I earn, the less it seems! Anyway, Su Meng, let's go for a walk in the garden."
Strolling leisurely in the zoo with his hands clasped behind his back and Su Meng in tow.
These days, the wolf-dog brothers spent most of the week in the back mountains playing like crazy with Huiya and the other dogs. According to various signs and information, the pack had gradually adapted to living in the wild, with some dogs even starting to eat raw meat.
Huiya had completely turned into a wild child, barely distinguishable from wild wolves, except it usually wouldn't harm humans—probably because of spending so much time with Suming.
However, the wolf-dog brothers were stressed about one thing!
In a wolf pack, only the alpha has the right to mate. Now that the dog pack was much like a wolf pack, Huiya transformed from a sweet baby into a dominating leader and became the alpha, with the wolf-dog brothers just below it. They had the prestige, but when it came to relationships, they couldn't solve their problems and felt quite pitiful.
Farther away, the bee army of Hundred Flowers Valley was already fully reorganized...
To be honest, Suming didn't know how the two Queen Bees had managed the reorganization, and he couldn't be bothered to find out. As long as the pair didn't cause trouble, that was good enough. The supply of Big Blue Honey was more than plentiful, enough to bathe in even during the cold days, not exaggerating.
The stock of Monkey Wine was almost gone, down to just one mineral water bottle. In a few days, he planned to take the Monkey King to the back mountains to find a secluded spot to start brewing Monkey Wine and get the recipe.
"Wow, it's been a while since I've been this relaxed."
