Chapter 16 After all, there is still no escape from fate.
Jinhua looked through the materials submitted by Abao and frowned when she saw the company name column.
"What's the relationship between grandpa and you?"
Abao pretended to be calm: "He is now our company's treasurer."
Jinhua continued to flip through the materials and asked seemingly casually: "He didn't mention me to you?"
"No, what I discussed with him was all business." Abao was not stupid, this was obviously a lie to him.
This time Jinhua did not continue to ask, she raised her head and glanced at Abao, and said in a businesslike tone: "Have you found a factory to take over the order?"
"Not yet, but as soon as the order comes through, I can find an OEM factory."
Jinhua saw that Abao's answer was honest: "How can you guarantee that you will get all the money after the order is completed?"
"I signed this order through a company in Hong Kong. We have a contract." Abao did not say anything about his relationship with Liu Sen. He was mainly afraid of causing trouble to Liu Sen. After all, he is now the heir to the Liu family.
Jinhua found a copy of the contract among the documents. After checking it carefully, she put all the documents back into the document bag and handed it to Wang Mingzhu: "Follow this list and work carefully."
"Okay... Section Chief." Wang Mingzhu's eyes lit up. She finally no longer had to scratch stamps every day.
Coming out of the section chief's office, Abao smiled and stretched out his hand to Wang Mingzhu: "Ms. Wang, we will be partners from now on, please take care of me."
Wang Mingzhu put her hands on her hips with a arrogant expression on her face: "Humph, I will keep an eye on you until the order is completed. Don't try to cut corners to make dirty money!"
Abao was speechless for a while: "Do I look like a profiteer?"
"My master said, no businessman is unfaithful, and you can do anything to make money. Why does foreign trade have to be reviewed by the Foreign Trade Corporation? It is to prevent unscrupulous businessmen from passing off inferior products and ruining the reputation of Made in China. That's what I want.
Stand the last duty for Made in China." Wang Mingzhu said with a serious face.
Well, Po was completely defeated.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Abao raised the document bag in his hand angrily: "The order has been approved, of course I'm going to inspect the factory."
"Wait." Wang Mingzhu caught up.
"What for? You want to go with me?"
"Who is free to go with you? Here is the phone number of our foreign trade company. Remember to report the progress to me every day."
Abao rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said impatiently: "Okay, you are my leader, I will do whatever you want."
"Don't be so playful with me. Don't think I can't hear it. Remember, I am following this order. I must understand the progress of the order every day. Do you know it or not?"
"I know, let's go."
........
On the other side, Tao Tao is also in trouble. Fangmei, who was originally very enthusiastic towards him, now treats him like air every day. Not only does she not help greet the customers when he is there, she also doesn't help when he goes out to deliver goods.
Check out the store.
"I don't seem to have offended her, right?" Tao Tao recalled it carefully, puzzled.
For several days in a row, he bought gifts and told jokes, but he didn't coax him well. The key is that he is so tired now. In the past, Fangmei helped him, so he only had to go to the aquatic products company to buy goods, and then go to Huanghe Road.
Just deliver it.
Now it was good, not only did he have to purchase goods and deliver goods, but he also had to look after the shop. At the end of the day, he was so tired that he couldn't even straighten his back, which made him want to close the shop.
Less than a week later, Tao Tao couldn't help but ask Qin Hao out for a drink, pouring out her bitterness. If he knew it was Qin Hao's idea for Fangmei, he would probably look very happy.
"Ah Hao, what on earth happened to this beautiful girl? I've been thinking about it for a week and still can't figure out what happened to her."
"When people chased you, you found them annoying. Now they ignore you and you act like this again. Do you know what this is called?"
"What?"
"Be a bitch."
Tao Tao:..........
"Ah Hao, what do you think I should do?" Tao Tao was already a little drunk.
"It depends on what you plan to do. If you really decide to marry Fangmei, then go and express your attitude to her. Don't hang on to her all the time. If you are just having fun, then stop as soon as possible to avoid harming others."
Then Tao Tao did something that shocked Qin Hao. He took a taxi directly to the door of Fang Mei's house, knocked on the door and confessed his love. Now, the whole street was woken up by him.
Fangmei's father was so angry that he almost chopped Tao Tao with a kitchen knife, but because of the gossip from the neighbors, he could only grit his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
Half a month later, the wedding of Tao Tao and Fang Mei was held at Jin Meilin on Huanghe Road. Tao Tao was also very wealthy and directly booked the entire hotel. This was a gain for Fang Mei's parents, and his father-in-law's attitude towards him also changed.
"Congratulations to the groom."
"congratulations."
"Thank you, thank you, please come in."
Tao Tao stood at the door and looked anxiously at the intersection, looking at his watch over and over again.
"Taotao, why don't you go in? There are so many relatives and friends waiting for you to toast." Boss Fang said and wanted to pull Taotao in, but he failed.
"Dad, please go in first and greet me. I have two very important guests who haven't arrived yet."
Boss Fang was a little displeased: "The people sitting inside are all relatives and friends who have watched Fangmei grow up, and they are also your elders. Why are your guests so important that you leave them alone?"
At this moment, a taxi stopped in front of Jin Meilin, and a man and a woman got out of the car one after another.
Tao Tao was relieved when he saw Abao: "Abao, why are you here so late?"
"There is no way, the foreign trade order needs to be delivered today, we stayed up several nights to get it out..."
Before Abao could finish his words, Wang Mingzhu stood aside and interrupted with her hands on her hips: "Hey, didn't you say you wanted to have a celebration banquet? Why did it become a wedding banquet?"
"It's all the same. Besides, when I spend money to treat you to a meal, you always say that I bribe you. Now that the meal doesn't cost anything, it doesn't count as a bribe, right?"
Wang Mingzhu couldn't find a refuting argument for a moment. Seeing that A Bao had already entered, she hesitated for a moment and followed him in.
After Tao Tao made arrangements for Ah Bao and Wang Mingzhu, he couldn't help complaining: "This Ah Hao doesn't know what he's doing, and he still hasn't come yet."
"That's not the day you chose. I'm delivering foreign trade orders, and Ah Hao is signing a contract with the China Merchants Bureau. It's all on the same day." A Bao complained.
Tao Tao also expressed her bitterness: "I didn't decide this day, nor did my father-in-law insist that today is an auspicious day..."
Before he finished speaking, Boss Fang came to urge Tao Tao to toast again. Tao Tao had no choice but to tell Ah Bao: "When will Ah Hao come? Please tell me."
"I know, there are quite a few."
Wang Mingzhu looked very curious as she looked at the lively scene in the hall. Upon seeing this, Abao joked: "How about it? You haven't seen it before. This is how we, the lower class people in Shanghai, get married."
"Don't be so weird here. I'm also a native of Shanghai. Besides, you are a capitalist now, not a commoner at the bottom." Wang Mingzhu glared at Abao fiercely.
"It's so ugly to be called a capitalist, why don't we call him an entrepreneur now?"
"What's the difference? It means the same thing."
Here, A Bao and Wang Mingzhu were bickering, while Tao Tao was miserable. He was pulled by his father-in-law to greet a group of so-called relatives and friends. He nodded and bowed, drank a lot of wine, and his steps began to wander.
"Boss Fang, the auspicious time is coming soon, is the banquet going to start?" Jin Meilin's manager came over to remind.
Boss Fang glanced at the time and waved his hand: "Let's open the banquet."
Tao Tao was excited, half awake from the wine, and quickly stopped him: "Wait a minute, I have a very important guest who hasn't arrived yet, so don't start the dinner yet."
"Hey, eldest nephew, what kind of great guest is your uncle that he wants so many of us to wait for him?"
"That's right, besides, the auspicious time is coming soon. It would be unlucky to miss it."
Faced with all the questions from relatives and friends around him, Boss Fang became even more annoyed and said to Tao Tao: "What the hell are you doing? The elders are already waiting in a hurry. Let's start the banquet first. It's just that Hao who didn't come. It's really not possible."
, ask the kitchen to prepare a separate table for him, and when he comes, make other arrangements for him."
"No, Ahao is my bare-pants brother who grew up with me. He must be there when I get married!"
Just when the two were in a stalemate, the receptionist outside the door hurried over and whispered in the manager's ear. The manager's expression changed and he hurried to the office on the second floor.
"Boss lady, the leader from above is here."
Lu Meilin didn't take it seriously at first: "Which leader?"
"There is one waiter I don't recognize, and the other one is Chu Zhao."
"Here is Director Zhao? Where are they?" Lu Meilin quickly jumped up from her chair.
"We're all at the door, I guess you've already come in by now."
"Then why are you still standing there? Go and say hello."
Lu Meilin saw that the manager was hesitant to speak: "But today we have arranged a banquet for Boss Tao..."
"Are you stupid? You are just a seafood seller. You have to rely on us to take care of your business. Then what is the identity of Zhao Chu? There are many people on the Yellow River Road who want to curry favor but can't find a way. Go tell Tao Tao and let him
Let me give up the box. I really can't give him a discount on the banquet."
"well."
Jin Meilin's entrance.
"Mr. Qin, do you mind if we go in and have a wedding drink?" Director Wu said with a smile.
"It's natural to be able to invite such distinguished guests as Director Wu and Chu Zhao."
After thinking about it, Qin Hao understood the intentions of these two people. The contract for the commercial complex had been signed, involving an investment of 150 million Hong Kong dollars. They and Qin Hao were already on the same ship, so naturally they had to protect this project.
, but in formal occasions, the platform will inevitably be talked about, so a private wedding banquet like this is more suitable.
"Oh, Director Zhao has been looking forward to your visit. The private room upstairs has been prepared for you..."
Before Lu Meilin could finish her words, Director Zhao waved his hand and said: "We are here to have a wedding banquet today. It depends on the host's arrangements. Are you right, Director Wu?"
Director Wu nodded and said to Qin Hao with a smile: "Mr. Qin, who is the new guy today? Let's send him a red envelope to feel happy."
Over there, Tao Tao was competing with his father-in-law. Hearing the movement at the door, he subconsciously looked over and immediately left his father-in-law and ran towards the door.
My father-in-law was so angry that he turned blue in the face, and the relatives on the side also took the opportunity to get angry.
"His second uncle, this uncle of yours is really shameless. He doesn't take you seriously at all."
"That is to say, what kind of 'distinguished guest' deserves to be welcomed by so many of our elders? It's outrageous!"
Tao Tao trotted all the way to the door. Just as he was about to complain a few words, Qin Hao pointed at him and introduced: "This is today's groom, and he is also a good brother I grew up with."
"Tao Tao, this is Bureau Wu, and this is Director Zhao. They came specially to attend your wedding. Please hurry up and make arrangements."
Tao Tao drank a lot of wine and couldn't think straight for a while. Lu Meilin looked on anxiously and quickly pulled Tao Tao to remind her in a low voice: "Don't be stunned. These two are the big leaders of the China Merchants Group. They can invite as many people as they want."
You can't invite me, I've prepared a private room for you, so hurry up and say hello upstairs."
"Thank you two leaders for coming. Leaders, why don't we invite you to the private room?"
Director Wu waved his hand: "There is no need for the private room, the hall is just fine."
"Yes, this wedding banquet is just a fun place to eat, just sit in the hall." Director Zhao also agreed.
Tao Tao had no choice but to lead a group of people inside.
"Dad, hurry up and clear out three seats at the main table..."
Boss Fang's relatives were immediately unhappy when they heard this. So many people had been waiting for a long time without being seated, and now they have to give up their seats when people come? How can there be such logic in the world?
Boss Fang was also very angry and was about to explode when he suddenly saw the appearance of the person behind Tao Tao and was stunned.
How could this person, whom he had seen on TV news, appear at his daughter's wedding?
It wasn't until Director Wu held his hand cordially that Boss Fang came to his senses and quickly asked someone to free up the seat at the main table.
"Old Fang, are you dizzy? Why should we give up our seats to the people brought by that kid?"
"That is, if you don't give us a reasonable explanation today, our relatives will no longer be anywhere else!"
This time, Boss Fang's answer was tough: "Don't regret it anymore. Do you know who the person who shook my hand just now is?"
"Who is so amazing?"
"The big leader of China Merchants Group, who has been in the news, knows what he is doing here. He is here to drink my daughter and son-in-law's wedding. If such distinguished guests don't sit at the main table, why should we let them sit in the corner?"
"Really? How can your daughter and son-in-law be so proud to hire such a big leader?" Relatives and friends looked suspicious.
Boss Fang's nostrils turned upward and he snorted: "Why not? Otherwise, why would the leader come?"
"I think the leader is doing it for the young man's sake, right? Your son-in-law doesn't seem to be very familiar with the leader."
"Well... that Ah Hao is my son-in-law's red-pants brother who grew up together. They have a very good relationship. His face is my son-in-law's face. He knows how to cut it."
Soon the news spread.
"It seems that the son-in-law of the Fang family is quite capable. He can invite such a big leader to a wedding banquet."
"Isn't that right? I heard that this person will be promoted to deputy mayor soon."
