Vol 2 Chapter 2718: Xu Family Past

Xu Xinlan is the adopted daughter of Grandpa Xu Jingxi, so she is older than Xu Jingxi. Therefore, after Xu Jingxi met, she shouted: "Auntie Lan."
Although she is an aunt, she looks a bit younger in appearance.
Su Rui looked at this Xu Xinlan carefully. Since she is Xu Jingxi's most trusted woman in the entire Xu family, she must have an extraordinary distinction.
"Jingxi, the past two years have also suffered you outside." Xu Xinlan held Xu Jingxi's hand, her eyes reddened.
Su Rui believes that this is a manifestation of true emotions.
"Auntie Lan, didn't I come back." Xu Jingxi's eye circles were also red.
"I'm back, but I guess you will be back to the capital in a few days." Xu Xinlan took out a tissue and gently wiped her tears.
"And..." After a pause, Xu Xinlan said again, "I don't know when Brother Xingmin will be back."
When she said this sentence, Xu Xinlan's tears burst out.
Su Rui sighed secretly.
The Xu family, a century-old family with three generations of imperial cooks since the Qing Dynasty, is now in this generation, but it is also completely divided.
Brothers are of the same heart, and their profit cuts money. This sentence is definitely not a false statement. In history, the collapse of many large families was caused by the brothers' barriers.
The Xu family, which has the highest status among Chinese chefs, has come to this day, and it is really embarrassing.
"This is..." Xu Xinlan couldn't help asking when she saw Su Rui who was pulling the suitcase.
In fact, she already knew it in her heart.
Even if it is not Xu Jingxi, even if it is an ordinary girl, she chooses to take a man home, then the identity of the man is ready to be revealed.
Su Rui smiled, and did not answer directly, but said: "Aunt Lan, hello, my name is Su Rui."
After that, he glanced at Xu Jingxi.
The latter coughed softly, and a blush rose on her pretty face: "Aunt Lan, this is... my boyfriend."
The relationship between the boy and the girlfriend was discussed in advance by the two of them. In fact, if they didn't say this, it would be difficult for Su Rui to enter the door of Xu's house "justifiably".
"It's great, a kind of talent." Xu Xinlan nodded, and didn't seem to have any doubts about the relationship between Su Rui and Xu Jingxi, and then said, "Let's eat outside first, and then go home."
"okay."
Xu Jingxi nodded in response, and then gestured to Su Rui. The latter clearly saw that the blush on Xu Jingxi's pretty face had not faded.
Xu Xinlan drove a white Audi q7. Su Rui sat in the back row alone, looked around, and found that this was the top model, and it was considered a million-dollar luxury car.
It seems that although Xu Xinlan is an adopted daughter who has not gone through the "home entry procedures", her status in the family is not low.
But think about it, it is true, how much wealth does the Xu family have to save for a hundred years? As long as you are diligent and conscientious, don't be too irritated, then enough for several generations.
Before the founding of the country, Xu Yuanhua led the whole family to move back from Europe. This sincere heart moved everyone. Moreover, Xu Yuanhua has become a master of state banquets and a leading figure in the chef industry. If the Xu family can be stable, then this A glory will be maintained forever, no one can change.
However, after the disappearance of Xu Xingmin, the iconic figure of the Xu family, even outsiders can see the unrest within the Xu family. If this continues, there will only be an empty shell in the century-old family.
Su Rui sat in the back row alone, listening to Xu Xinlan chatting with Xu Jingxi in the front row.
"You haven't been at home for the past two years, and you don't know much about many things. Now, your second uncle is basically responsible for all things at home."
Xu Jingxi pulled the hair around her ears, her eyes showed a slight sadness: "It was the same before, and there hasn't been much change."
In the past, the boss Xu Xingmin had always been fascinated by the kitchen, and he didn't care about other things. In addition to accepting a lot of disciples, some family businesses were managed by the second child, Xu Xinglong.
Of course, the latter also has talent in this area.
However, if more management work is done, then the culinary instincts will be unfamiliar. Moreover, Xu Xinglong discovered that no matter how much hard work he puts in, others would instinctively think of Xu Xingmin when they mentioned the Xu family.
After all, in this generation, although everyone's culinary skills are considered masters, only Xu Xingmin is recognized as the top figure. The Xu family is based on culinary skills, and Xu Xingmin has naturally become this family. Of the banner.
The disciples are all over the world.
This is a natural thing.
However, Xu Xinglong's heart was a little unbalanced.
After all, in his opinion, the Xu family's current development and so many industries are the result of his comprehensive layout.
He should be the one with the best reputation.
However, although Xu Xinglong did not openly express this idea, everyone can see his attitude in many details.
Although there are a lot of small frictions between Xu Xinglong and his eldest brother, Xu Xingmin, who has always put all his thoughts in the kitchen, does not take it seriously.
However, the most intense conflict between the two brothers finally broke out.
Because after Xu Xinglong expanded the family industry, he began to have capital to take a fancy to the unlimited prospects of the Xu family. Xu Xinglong was naturally very happy to enter it. He even thought about integrating all the industries under the Xu family into a multinational group. In that case, his wealth, prestige, influence, etc., will reach a new level.
However, for this idea, the boss Xu Xingmin is a rare fierce opposition.
Because Xu Xinglong wants to introduce the capital of the Xu family from North America-pure foreign capital.
This is something Xu Xingmin does not want to see.
He didn't have any intention to develop the Xu family into a so-called multinational group. After all, this went against the Xu family's ancestral motto.
In the eyes of the elders of the Xu family who have passed away, it is good for them to be a chef with peace of mind. As long as they do their job well, their reputation will naturally come. Too many industries want to get involved, which means too much distraction, which is completely contrary to the "craftsman spirit" of their family.
In Xu Xinglong's view, Xu Xingmin's thoughts are simply unreasonable, too outdated, too late to keep up with the times, and simply-fools.
In this era, who would take the initiative to make life difficult with money?
In fact, when Xu Xinglong scolded his brother angrily, he didn't realize that it was the "Xu Xingmin"-style craftsman spirit that gave the Xu family its current prestige and status.
Although the times are different, the spirit of craftsmanship is always needed.
Xu Xinglong and Xu Xingmin stand in different positions, so it is impossible to say who is wrong and who is right.
In the opinion of the boss Xu Xingmin, it is not impossible to introduce capital. However, it is best to use the capital of some domestic acquaintances. Although he stays in the kitchen all day, he also knows that many good local Chinese companies are continuously injected by foreign capital. A matter of complete annexation.
Xu Xinglong sneered at his elder brother Xu Xingmin's worry. In his opinion, this kind of people who stick to tradition has no future at all and will bring the entire Xu family into a dead end.
However, Xu Xinglong was still a bit hasty. He wanted to prove himself too much, and wanted to turn the Xu family industry into a monopolistic predator in the cook world. The capital from North America promised to give him a lot of support, but he had to sign. The next very demanding gambling agreement.
The content of the gambling agreement is very simple-if Xu Xinglong fails to meet the requirements of the capital side, then there is only one result-he handed over the Xu family and got out of the game.
Xu Xingmin knew about this gambling agreement, so he desperately opposed it. The two sides fought fiercely and stalemate for a long time without getting a proper result.
However, because Xu Xingmin is a leading figure in the Xu family, things he firmly opposes are basically difficult to accomplish.
Moreover, foreign capital is also fond of Xu Xingmin's golden signature. After all, he is now the most qualified character in the Xu family to inherit the chef king plaque. If he disagrees, then the competing chef king has lost at least half of its value.
Therefore, this matter was put on hold indefinitely.
Xu Xingmin doesn't take the matter of making money too seriously, but Xu Xinglong is different. If this matter is not completed one day, he will not sleep well.
Until later, Xu Xingmin disappeared inexplicably during a business trip to attend an exchange meeting.
Two kitchen king plaques have been hung in the main hall of Xu’s old house. After Xu Xingmin’s disappearance, the two plaques still seem to be invaluable, but everyone feels that there seems to be something missing that is unclear. taste.
"Now your second uncle is stepping up the integration of family industry resources, and the negotiations with foreign capital have never been broken. I am afraid that after a year, he will introduce capital into the Xu family." Xu Xinlan said.
After hearing this, Xu Jingxi's eyes showed a slightly sad look: "If the Xu family loses the gambling agreement, can the Xu family be called the Xu family?"
Su Rui sat in the back row and said,
Many of China’s century-old stores are down to this gambling agreement, and finally they are completely controlled by foreign capital.

If Xu Xinglong insists on going his own way, he is very likely to follow the old path of other century-old brands. When it comes to playing capital, how can he be the opponent of those foreign professional capital players?
"No way, I can't stop it, now only the eldest brother can come back to prevent this from happening." Xu Xinlan said and sighed again, "It's just that if that time comes, the Xu family can no longer be called Xu's house."
Brothers, where is home or home?
Xu Jingxi hesitated: "It's just that, can my father come back? In the past two years, even the police have not had any clue."
Having said this, an unspeakable sadness flashed in her big eyes.
Why did a big living person suddenly disappear?
If in the years of war, this event might still happen, but now, the probability of occurrence is too low, too low!
