Chapter 224

It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish.

In the past, Zhou Yi himself was a homebody. He just didn't cause trouble to his family, and naturally he couldn't help his family. But it's different now. He has money, ability and connections, and Zhou Yi can see how important this restaurant is in the second sister's heart.

It was very heavy, so he made up his mind to help the second sister; but even if the help came, he didn't want to go into battle himself, so he made various arrangements to help the second sister weave a big fishing net, help her onto the horse, and then

Two more rides...

Jacqueline was very lucky. Her loyalty won the respect of Zhou Yi, and she was taught the secret technique of 'Egg Fried Rice' and was directly promoted to chef. Zhou Yi did not count as a substitute, he also had a say in the second sister's property, not to mention this

With his great help, this industry will continue to flourish and become a giant in the catering industry in Paris. Appointing a chef will mean nothing at all.

What Zhou Yi asked Henry to do was actually very simple, which was to contact a local headhunting company in Paris to find the best Chinese and Western chefs. The salary was no problem, but the key was to have good skills. He believed in this truth that there must be brave men under heavy rewards.

In fact, just making a phone call is all it takes to spend money like this. Zhou Yi deliberately asked Henry to handle it, in fact, it was to increase his sense of belonging. After seeing his work that day, Zhou Yi felt that he, the foreign brother-in-law, was the biggest

The problem is confusion.

It can be seen from his works that his style is still fluctuating, sometimes realistic and sometimes abstract, so if he can draw a doorway, it will be weird; from a psychological point of view, Henry is

A sign of impatience. For a married man, this is caused by his low sense of identification with his family.

In other words, Henry lacks a sense of responsibility for his family. Of course, gambling and drug abuse will also make him exaggerated and become an unstable element. Zhou Yi already has ideas for solving these problems.

It seems unreliable to spend so much effort for an old French guy, but Henry and his second sister have a baby after all. From a Chinese perspective, Zhou Yi still wants to save him as long as there is a chance, rather than abandon him.

Henry was enthusiastic about what Zhou Yi told him. Men like to give orders far more than women like to spend money. When they heard the price he offered, the people in the headhunting company immediately flattered him. Every mouthful of Henry

Not to mention Henry's satisfaction as a teacher, he also had an unprecedented recognition of this restaurant; before that, Zhou Jingjing had always disliked him asking about things in the restaurant, because he would always

Everything went very wrong.

Henry now feels that his brother-in-law is much better than his wife. At least Zhou Yi is willing to trust him. Is this mutual understanding between men?

In fact, he decisively overthought it

"Zhou, the headhunting company has promised that within a month, they will help us find the top Chinese and Western chefs. But the fee they want is not low. Each chef will cost 200,000 francs."

"200,000 is not too much. Talents are rare. But are the headhunting companies exaggerating? Top chefs, including Master Louis?"

Zhou Yi chuckled. After arriving in France, he had heard the name of Master Louis more than once. This man seemed to be vaguely the leader in Paris's catering industry, but he didn't know what kind of person he was.

"Of course that's impossible. Besides, even if Master Louis is willing to come, I'm afraid we can't afford it."

Henry was shocked. He really didn't know what this rich brother-in-law was thinking. He actually dared to take Master Louis's idea?

"Okay, let's do this for now. The restaurant doesn't have to open for half a month. I'll ask Jacqueline to put up the notice later, saying that we are going to close down during the Chinese New Year. Let's hold back for a moment those who have watched the Ameri feature.

diners. Once Jacqueline masters the egg fried rice and the staff is in place, it won’t be too late to open the business again.”

Looking at Henry, Zhou Yi suddenly stretched out: "It's the Chinese New Year, let's go Henry, let's go buy some New Year's goods. Oh, I almost forgot, this is the Internet age, you can just order what New Year's goods you want online.

I’m not in a hurry, second brother-in-law, why don’t you take me to that place to have a look?”

"That place? Which place?"

Henry was stunned, feeling that his brother-in-law's expression suddenly became very strange, and he suddenly became polite, even calling him his second brother-in-law?

"Where else? Of course it's your place to have fun."

Zhou Yi laughed out loud, like an old prostitute.

"ah?"

Henry suddenly narrowed his eyes: "Zhou, I understand what you mean, um, you mean women? Oh, Liu just happens to be away, this is a good opportunity. Well, there are a few very good mannequins I am familiar with.

Yes, not only do you have a good figure, but you are also much cleaner than those prostitutes in the red light district, but they are more expensive, but you are a rich man."

"Henry, you are going too far. It seems that you often find women behind my second sister's back. How can this be unreasonable!"

"Oh, no, no! Zhou, you completely misunderstood. They only have artistic exchanges with me, not dirty transactions." Henry was stunned and said to himself, it turns out that this is not what you are doing, so why do you look so weird? Isn't that right?

Is it a scam?

"I'm talking about the casino. Hey, to tell you the truth, second brother-in-law, I don't have any other hobbies, I just like to gamble, and my gambling skills are superb. I will win every time I gamble. Isn't it the Chinese New Year? Relax.

That’s fine, but I’m not familiar with Paris, so you’ll have to work hard to lead the way.”

"Zhou, are you serious?"

Henry's eyes suddenly lit up. He looked Zhou Yi up and down. The more he looked, the more he felt that this Chinese brother-in-law was a cute guy who had the same taste as him: "Oh, Zhou, you are not here to test me on behalf of your sister, are you?"

After all, this guy is related to artists, and he is not a complete idiot. He has some doubts about Zhou Yi.

"Henry, you should believe me. You know there are no casinos in China. Now that I have finally come to France, of course I have to see it. And we are all men. Right?"

"Yes, this is a secret among men!"

Being teased by Zhou Yi, Henry felt like there were ants crawling in his heart. He was so itchy that he couldn't think too much. He immediately hooked Zhou Yi's shoulder with a smile: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go, brother-in-law will take you there."

The biggest casino in Paris!”

If you want to defeat the inner demon, you must first crush the heart that has been blocked by the demon, and then you can be reborn from the ashes.

From his second sister and his father, Zhou Yi already learned that Henry's gambling addiction was even worse than his drug addiction. When he lost the most, he even attracted loan sharks to collect debts.

This is actually understandable. Those who engage in art are almost like gamblers, especially a frustrated painter like Henry. They are basically gambling in life; if they win, they will become famous, if they lose, they will always have a future of nothing.

As an artist, no one will treat him as a dish except for himself.

In fact, Henry is very pitiful. Maybe his nature is not like this. It's just that he can't become famous in his thirties. The huge pressure forces him to find a way to vent. Just like other 'future artists', some like women. Some like the stimulation of alcohol, some take drugs to death, and he has a severe gambling addiction that he cannot extricate himself from.

To save Henry, we must first make him despair of gambling. This is no small project. Even the best psychiatrist cannot do it, but Zhou Yi can do it with ease.

"Is it Brother Liu? I'm Zhou Yi"

Sitting on Henry's 409, Zhou Yi first dialed Liu Ke's phone: "Yes, I'm in France. I wish you a good year, Brother Liu. Haha, by the way. I need a lot of money, can you give me that Will you get a share of the profits from betting on stones first?"

When they were gambling on stones in Tengchong, Liu Ke and Zhang Zhao promised that if Zhou Yi helped them choose a stone, as long as it turned green, they would give Zhou Yi 30% of the profit. Previously, Zhou Yi didn't have much money to use, so he couldn't. He has never asked for it. Now he is planning to take Henry to ride a 'roller coaster', but he needs a lot of money to enjoy it.

"Haha, what's wrong, brother, aren't you going to France to visit relatives? Why do you need so much money?"

Liu Ke asked this not out of concern for money, but out of concern for Zhou Yi.

"I won't go into the details of the phone call. Don't I want to go to the casino to play? I'm planning on either not playing, or if I want to play, how about playing in a big casino? Brother Liu, are you having financial difficulties?"

It’s hard for Zhou Yi to elaborate. Although he said that he was ‘treating diseases and saving lives’, it was still a dirty trick after all, whether it looked good or not.

"I understand, I don't know which casino is having bad luck again, haha. Now that I'm a brother, if you don't say brother, I won't ask you in detail. Let's put it this way, brother, your eye poison was bought from Tengchong. 90% of the price of the stone has gone up. The profit that should be given to you, brother, is more than 5 billion. Is it enough for me to give you 3 billion first?"

"Three billion

What?"

Zhou Yiyi frowned, the money was still a little short, I'm afraid I would have to waste more time to implement my plan. It was almost the Chinese New Year and I couldn't afford to waste it.

"What? Isn't three billion enough? Brother, just play a few games and don't play with your heartbeat?" Liu Ke's heart twitched when he heard Zhou Yi's silence.

"Brother Liu, I still have hundreds of millions in my account, but if I want to have fun, this little money is really not enough."

Zhou Yi smiled and said: "There is still at least 2 billion short of funds. Let's do this. If you are worried, Brother Liu, I will use the 30% of the shares that Mr. Li gave me as collateral to borrow from you."

"Brother, you are going to make me angry if you say this to me?"

Liu Ke said angrily: "Two billion is nothing. Is it enough for the friendship between our brothers? Do you still need to pledge your shares? You are scolding me! Come on, I can still get a dozen more on my hands now." 100 million, go back and ask Lao Zhang to offer some more. I can give you 5 billion, no problem! Brother, you must be sure to hit the mark. What am I afraid of? I’m just worried that you will play too big and don’t cause any more trouble. France After all, it is not our territory, brother, I am worried about your safety."
