Chapter 475: Three Days of Farewell
In two weeks, Ning Weimin almost ran to the cultural relics store out of nowhere.
Not only did I become more familiar with the heads of the two cabinet stores.
With this ability to make friends, I bought most of the good things in the two stores.
At least the three main colors of porcelain, namely bright yellow glaze, peacock blue, and malachite green, which were almost the same age as the official kilns and were in good quality, were all sold out by him.
In addition, he also collected a lot of Ming blue and white, Ming enamel, Kang, Yong and Qian pastels, and kiln glazes.
All kinds of things, thousands of kinds of good porcelain, he spent less than 200,000.
If he hadn't been worried about continuing the steady stream of water in the future, and had other things to do urgently, this kid wouldn't have been willing to stop here.
But even so, his greed made the managers of the two stores turn a little green and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
They all said they really didn’t expect Ning Weimin to be so good at buying, and he took away half of the things they had packed in the store.
He also said that this was just this time and would not happen again.
If Ning Weimin comes again in the future, it is really impossible to give him such a big discount.
Otherwise, the things we finally collected would be sold so cheaply, and we would not be able to pay bonuses to our employees.
After all, Ning Weimin is a knowledgeable person.
While thanking the two managers again and again, he explained repeatedly that it was just a contingency plan for the opening of the restaurant.
At the same time, he expressed his personal generosity by expressing his "thank you" very well with practical actions in private.
This was able to eliminate the resentment between the two big managers in time and prevent the newly established friendship from being ruined.
Of course, not only the cultural relics store complained that he bought too much, but also the deputy director of the Temple of Heaven Park.
The deputy director introduced Ning Weimin to the person who connected the cultural relics store. He also did not expect that he would be so generous and spent 200,000 yuan on porcelain.
You know, how much money is there in the joint venture restaurant’s account?
Not counting the 50,000 yuan compensation for moving the hardware store, as well as the money for digging the basement and decorating it.
The remaining 500,000 yuan may not even reach 300,000 yuan.
So when I saw the porcelain that Ning Weimin bought, the deputy director's eyes almost fell to the ground and he couldn't close his mouth.
I thought about it, if all the funds in this account were to buy porcelain, what else could I do?
Fortunately, Ning Weimin had already thought of his words,
After some explanations, in the end, not only did the deputy director not get angry, but he also smiled happily.
Ning Weimin said this. First of all, among the 200,000 worth of porcelain, only less than half of it was of a color and style suitable for the restaurant. He chose it for the restaurant.
And he knew very well that the restaurant had limited funds and could only spend fifty thousand yuan at most.
So the money to buy the porcelain was raised and advanced from elsewhere, and it would not occupy the restaurant's scarce funds.
As for the porcelain that the restaurant wants to keep, you can wait until the restaurant is renovated, and then it depends on the specific situation.
Anyway, the cultural relics store issued an invoice for everything.
At that time, I will put whichever one I feel is suitable.
Which one is on display will be considered as bought by the restaurant.
If there is no other use, he will take it away and use it for other purposes. Is this a good thing for the restaurant?
Well, just like that, the deputy director was successfully deceived by Ning Weimin again.
It's obvious that Ning Weimin took advantage of this and used the relationship with the Temple of Heaven Park for personal gain.
But after hearing what he said, the deputy director felt that he was changing his plans for the restaurant again.
I completely regard him as a great good person.
Look, what is confusing right and wrong?
This is it. And it also makes people feel grateful.
When you are a bad guy, you have to live up to it, then you can be regarded as a bit moral and a higher level.
Those who are evil on the surface, can be seen through at a glance, no!
But then again, since Ning Weimin is such a person, he must have such friends around him.
Birds of a feather flock together, and people flock together.
So if this kid is not careful, he will inevitably be tricked by others.
No, Qiao Wanlin quietly let him take the blame.
And it made him feel so wronged that he couldn't express it.
What's going on?
I dare to say two weeks ago, just after the decoration plan was finalized.
When Ning Weimin pushed open the door to find the deputy director, wanting him to contact the cultural relics store.
I happened to catch up with the deputy director of the Temple of Heaven entertaining several people from the ancient construction team in his office.
At that time, the deputy director was also trying to find Ning Weimin to sign and formalize the contract for the construction of the ancient building.
At the same time, Ning Weimin also needs to come forward at noon to accompany the people of the ancient construction team to have a meal.
It goes without saying that this is what Ning Weimin should do.
Not only should he accompany him at noon, he should also go next door to inform Qiao Wanlin.
There are only three leaders in the operation team. It would be outrageous to have two leaders and leave one behind.
However, what happened next was very unexpected.
Because this day, everyone sat at the banquet and toasted in order.
Ning Weimin discovered that among the people in these ancient construction teams, there was actually someone he had seen before.
And it was someone I met under special circumstances for special reasons.
That is Lan Lan's father.
Why haven’t you recognized it yet?
For no other reason than because Ning Weimin suddenly opened the door of the deputy principal.
I met the people from the ancient construction team in a very hasty and unexpected situation.
There was no time for formal introductions and greetings.
His only polite nod was to the eloquent business director of the ancient construction team.
After hearing that he was asked to sign, he readily agreed and immediately took the deputy director and director of the ancient construction team to his office.
Think about it, all things considered, he could only stay in the deputy director's office for a minute or two at most. How could he possibly see everyone's faces clearly?
Professor Lan, on the other hand, is a professional technical expert and has the noble spirit of a scholar.
In social situations, he usually does not participate in non-essential topics that have nothing to do with technology.
Most of the time, I just sit quietly and drink tea.
And because I had only seen Ning Weimin once on the Great Wall, I was not very impressed.
In Professor Lan's memory, Ning Weimin was just a hutong guy wearing cloth clothes and shoes, a jobless vagrant who made money by selling scrap copper.
Who would have thought that in just two years, this kid would turn into a business manager of Pierre Carton Company in suits and leather shoes, chatting and laughing.
He even became the big boss behind the scenes who could spend money for the Temple of Heaven Garden and hire their ancient construction team to provide services.
So even though Ning Weimin looked familiar after meeting him face to face, Professor Lan didn't dare to think that way.
But the problem is that according to the etiquette and procedures of the banquet, everyone sits together, and eventually they have to be introduced face-to-face in a more formal way.
In this way, when Ning Weimin and Professor Lan recognized each other's identities, they felt very embarrassed at the same time.
Don’t forget, whether in officialdom or in shopping malls, there are rules, and banquets and banquets are based on dignity.
First of all, the business director of the ancient construction team was very clear on the issue of who to invite whom. It was impossible for the operation team to pay for them.
Although Ning Weimin is young, he is the leader. He is the most distinguished guest at today's banquet.
Even if he gave in politely, the deputy director did not dare to overstep his bounds and sit down on the chair. What's more, Ning Weimin just signed the contract for the ancient construction team today and approved the first project payment.
Isn’t he the person the business director of the ancient construction team is looking for and should be complimented to the best of his ability?
So even if everyone here is older than Ning Weimin, age must be ignored at this banquet, and Ning Weimin must sit in the chair.
Secondly, the business director, as the leader of the party hosting the guests, must also serve as the introducer after the toast.
According to the order of seats, take the initiative to introduce the people of the ancient construction team to Ning Weimin and Qiao Wanlin one by one.
When making a toast, the people from the ancient construction team also had to respect Ning Weimin first, then the deputy director, and then Qiao Wanlin.
To put it bluntly, if Ning Weimin doesn’t move his chopsticks, no one can do it first.
This is an attitude of respecting the superior first and the following respectfully.
It can be seen from this that Professor Lan was introduced to Ning Weimin when he had no choice but to act like the people in front of him.
I was surprised to find that their status was completely reversed. How would Professor Lan feel in his heart?
That’s it for others. The key is that Ning Weimin is the person that Professor Lan really disliked and forced his daughter to stay away from.
If nothing else, just make a mistake.
Is it enough for Professor Lan to have his self-confidence bruised and have doubts about his life experience?
What's more, he would inevitably doubt, did Ning Weimin really not recognize him?
Are you waiting for this moment on purpose?
You just want to embarrass him?
Following this line of thinking, how else can Professor Lan be in a good mood?
See you with admiration for three days apart! That's right!
A noble son comes from a poor family! Enemy!
But I have to add another sentence at the end, his grandma’s!
Ning Weimin, on the other hand, was also extremely wronged and was also caught off guard.
To be honest, this kind of plot in online novels, in which young people are not bullied into poverty and they are passively pretending to be cool and slapped in the face, would not be that pleasant if it were placed in reality.
And it is definitely not what he wants to see.
Because the higher the level of people living in real society, the more they care about their image in the minds of others.
Although many gestures are hypocritical, they must be done properly and must be shown to others as best they can.
On the other hand, some shortcomings that ordinary people have must be covered up.
For example, Han Xin endured the humiliation and did not retaliate after gaining power. This was entirely due to his status.
Otherwise, he will not receive dedicated service from others, and may even scare away those who can help him accomplish things and do things for him.
Not really that magnanimous.
Especially for someone like Ning Weimin who has reached a high position of power at a young age.
Arrogance, publicity, and frivolity are definitely taboos among taboos.
Who wants to work with such a young man? Working for such young people?
Can such a boss respect your value? Can I treat you as a human being?
Every normal person will have a question mark in their mind.
So no one is willing to do anything but flatter the master who has no ability and wants to take advantage of others.
Be like those arrogant rich second generations thirty years later.
As long as you keep a high profile, you will do whatever you can't do, and you can't even pick up girls well.
It’s really not a problem with personal ability, it’s mainly because I don’t understand this truth, so there are a lot of ghosts and monsters around me.
But Ning Weimin is different, he is a sensible person.
Of course, you must always show that you respect others and are willing to abide by the rules of public consensus.
Only in this way can he accomplish what he wants to do.
For now, Professor Lan is embarrassed in front of him. Regardless of whether it is his fault or not, what will these people here think of him?
How could he be willing to cause pollution to his character? It's just a disease.
What's more, even he thinks that he is a scumbag in his heart, and thinks that Professor Lan is right to let his daughter break off the relationship with him.
Any qualified father in the world will do this, and he should do this.
So how can he be in a good and complacent mood?
The only thing he was worried about was how to eliminate Professor Lan's unhappiness and try his best to eliminate the embarrassment that no one wanted to see.
However, the suspected relationship between men and women is the most unclear. He can't mention Lan Lan rashly. This is even more taboo.
Even if others knew that he had something to do with Professor Lan's daughter.
It’s easy to misunderstand him and think the worst about him...
Look, how difficult it is for him!
It should be said that Ning Weimin actually did quite well.
Because when someone toasted him at the beginning, he stood up, his posture was relaxed, but not arrogant.
And once he recognized Professor Lan, he reacted quickly enough.
The one-handed toast immediately turned into two hands, and after finishing a round of toasts from the Gujian team.
He took the initiative to propose a round of wine on the grounds that young people respect their elders.
Even his speeches were particularly beautiful. He thanked the director for the invitation and praised the restaurant's environment and dishes.
I also deliberately asked for advice on the technical difficulties of construction.
During the banquet, Professor Lan was constantly given opportunities to demonstrate his knowledge.
His attitude surprised even the deputy principal and Qiao Wanlin.
Because they really didn’t expect that Ning Weimin would be so interested in ancient architecture and would give such face to the ancient construction team.
In short, although Ning Wei did not point out anything at the table, he fully expressed his kindness to Professor Lan.
Although Professor Lan is stern, he has something to say.
But his face and eyes looked more and more normal, and it didn't look like there was any misunderstanding or grudge.
But the problem is that God’s calculations are not as good as those of humans!
Ning Weimin made these preparations because he actually planned to wait until the construction started and then contact Professor Lan in private at the Beishen Kitchen site.
Then there will definitely be no misunderstandings by then, and maybe we can learn about Lan Lan's situation by the way.
But he never expected that when work started, Professor Lan didn't come at all.
The relevant technical consultant actually changed his position and became a horse expert.
Ning Weimin originally thought that Professor Lan was unwilling to come because of him. Later, when I inquired about it, I found out that it was Qiao Wanlin who had done the trick.
This guy actually said hello to the deputy director, and then asked the business director of the ancient construction team to "change the general".
As for why, the reason behind it is even more unexpected and reasonable.
Professor Qingqing Lan’s son Lan Zheng is the most competitive business opponent among people at the same level as Qiao Wanlin in the District Service Bureau.
Lan Zheng's superior also did not deal with Director Jin.
Of course Qiao Wanlin doesn't want Lan Zheng's father to participate in a project related to his future.
What else can Ning Weimin say?
It’s not just pig teammates who can trick people!
Like teammates who are too smart!
Ning Weimin could only sigh, realizing the true meaning of the situation, and helplessly accepted the reality.
The injustice was injustice. He estimated that Professor Lan, who had been wiped out, would probably regard him as the culprit of the evil, a villain who did one thing to his face and another behind his back.
It is inevitable that people will scold him behind his back! Maybe the whole family is scolding him!
This Qiao Wanlin, let him carry a big pot!
