Through Thick and Thin

Seeing his nephew coming, Fang Jiaming immediately stood up from the sofa, not caring who Xiao Zhan was with, raised his fist and gave him a hammer on the shoulder: "Good boy, how dare you let your second uncle wait for you?" you!"

Fang Shaojun sat on the sofa without moving, and he didn't say hello to his cousin Xiao Zhan, just drinking on his own.His gaze paused for a moment on the Omega boy beside Xiao Zhan, and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Fang Shaojun's Junyuan wealth was also established by relying on his parents' contacts and resources to establish a lot of relationships. In the past few years, there has been a lot of thunder and rain, and last year's investment in the New Third Board lost a lot.

When Fang Shaojun would not intentionally hide his dissatisfaction and disgust for him in front of Xiao Zhan, Xiao Zhan didn't care about it either.

Xiao Zhan said with a shallow smile: "The road is a bit congested, how dare I make you wait."

Fang Jiaming waved his hand impatiently: "Don't do this with me, don't I know you kid?"

He turned around and glanced at his son, and shouted, "Shaojun! Why are you sitting there? My cousin didn't bark either!"

Fang Shaojun stood up slowly, and said in a cold voice, "Cousin."

Xiao Zhan: "Xiao Jun."

The boy beside Xiao Zhan also greeted obediently: "Mr. Fang, Young Master Fang."

The Fang family father and son obviously knew who the boy was, Fang Jiaming just nodded lightly, and Fang Shaojun didn't even look at him.

Fang Jiaming: "Let's go and play some billiards with my second uncle. I haven't played for a long time. I'm looking for the feel."

"Okay, second uncle, let me take a few shots."

"You fucking did it again! You kid never beat me! Can you talk well!" Fang Jiaming scolded with a smile, and then said to Fang Shaojun, "Shaojun, let's go."

"Dad, you two can play." Fang Shaojun patted his legs and sat back on the sofa again, "I'll have a few more drinks."

Fang Jiaming frowned, didn't say anything, turned around and went to the clubhouse with Xiao Zhan.

Some employees in the clubhouse were chatting in twos and threes. Seeing Fang Jiaming and Xiao Zhan coming, they quickly stood up and greeted them respectfully. Fang Jiaming waved his hand to signal everyone to play their own games.

Xiao Zhan whispered something to the boy beside him, the latter nodded, and obediently sat down on the sofa beside him to eat some snacks.Fang Jiaming and Xiao Zhan came to the pool table and took the cue from the waiter.

Although Fang Jiaming suggested playing billiards, his mind was actually not on it.He fired a shot first, and said, "Ah Zhan, Xiao Jun, don't worry about it."

"It's okay, I don't care."

"Your aunt and I really spoiled him." Fang Jiaming sighed, "When he said that he wanted to go out and start a company by himself, my mother and I disagreed. This kid has high eyes but low power. I have long advised him to go first. The company has been working at the grassroots level for a while, and after thoroughly understanding the industry, I don’t want to listen to it, but I want to do VC myself. Do you think he looks like the material for VC? If it weren’t for me and his mother, how long would his company last? ?”

Fang Jiaming paused, and sneered: "Last year, he lost a lot of money, and he still wanted to hide the money from me and his mother. Hmph, he doesn't see what he can do, can he hide it from us? ?”

Xiao Zhan smiled faintly: "Xiaojun just needs to exercise, and he will be fine in a few years."

"The words are nice to hear. Your aunt and I are both worried to death. I don't want Xiao Jun to be smart and down-to-earth. Your aunt and I have worked hard for so long. Should we leave Zhongming to him in the future? "Fang Jiaming loosened his neckline, his eyes full of sadness, "It doesn't matter if his company loses money, let him know that this circle doesn't recognize people but only recognizes abilities, and he can't learn to run without a few somersaults."

Xiao Zhan bent down and hit a shot. The billiard ball quickly rolled on the table, making a crisp impact sound.

Fang Jiaming: "How is your company doing recently?"

"that's it."

Fang Jiaming laughed: "I heard that you plan to do something next year."

Xiao Zhan raised his eyes lightly: "Did Yuan Ning tell you?"

"Yuan Ning is my helper for you. It was agreed at the beginning that he has to report to me if you have something to do." Fang Jiaming knew his nephew very well and knew that he would not be angry about such things. I just mentioned it to me, probably because I was afraid that you would talk about him. Why, don't you plan to talk to your second uncle?"

Xiao Zhan smiled and said, "Don't you just wait and see the result?"

Fang Jiaming sighed softly, and said with emotion: "If only Xiao Jun could hold his breath half as well as you."

Then, Fang Jiaming said that he had someone arrange a suite in the hotel in advance, with brand new clothes and toiletries, so that Xiao Zhan would go directly to rest when he was tired, and have a cup of morning tea with his second uncle tomorrow morning.

Xiao Zhan: "You've said that, I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

Fang Jiaming: "You kid, you will only stay if you have to be served with food, drink and accommodation."

Xiao Zhan smiled slightly, but did not speak.

After the two played billiards for a while, Xiao Zhan still had something to deal with, so he bid farewell to his uncle and planned to go back to his room to rest.He glanced at the drowsy boy on the sofa, who immediately stood up happily, and happily ran forward to take his arm.

Xiao Zhan came out of the billiards room on the second floor. There were several booths beside the small bar under the stairs, and several employees of Zhongming were eating and chatting.

"...The recent rise in food stocks is really good. Is there any team in our department responsible for this research?" An employee said enthusiastically, "Especially that one, Qifu Foods, which rose by six points yesterday morning , the stock price has broken through [-], and not long ago Vin Securities issued a research report saying that it is optimistic about the first half of the year."

Deputy Manager Qian: "Our department doesn't have this. The company has been focusing on technology stocks and energy stocks this quarter. It is impossible to have a heavy position in the retail sector. But you should be able to speculate by yourself. Did any of you buy it?"

Several employees said that they bought it, and even Song Wenxin raised his hand. Lu Chuiqing looked at them, his eyes fluttered, and finally couldn't help saying: "I think Qifu Foods may not have enough stamina... this is probably a speculative stock."

Manager Qian was surprised and said, "Xiao Lu, have you researched it?"

"It's not research, but I had nothing to do at home in the two months before joining the company last year, so I looked for Qifu Food's financial reports for the past few years." Lu Chuiqing touched her head embarrassedly, "What about the company's financial reports? Speaking of which, there are a lot of circles in the notes. Last year’s revenue increased significantly, and it was said that the increase was mainly from the sales of new dried fruit products. Specifically, it was online or offline, and how the increase was made. I didn’t explain clearly. The merger and acquisition is also a bit vague, it may be to increase the income of the statement and cover up the debt, but I can't say without more information... After all, the financial report has been audited, and the auditor must be clearer than me, so I just read it casually look."

As soon as Lu Chuiqing finished speaking, a group of colleagues exploded, some didn't believe it, some half believed it, and more people felt incredible.Deputy Manager Qian looked at Lu Chuiqing thoughtfully, with some appreciation in his eyes.

At that time, Lu Chuiqing downloaded the financial report of Qifu Foods out of curiosity and interest, and also wanted to see if she could see some loopholes and connections—it turns out that this kind of workload is far from being done by one person. , involving a large amount of relevant information and actual research, most of which are inaccessible to ordinary retail investors. Companies like Value Scan have to investigate and organize at least several months.

However, no one noticed that Xiao Zhan leaned against the railing on the second floor behind the booth, listening to most of what they said.

The boy on the side wanted to leave with Xiao Zhan a long time ago. Seeing that he had been standing here for so long and did not leave, he asked in confusion, "Mr. Xiao, what are you looking at?"

Xiao Zhan didn't answer him, but just looked at the figure sitting in the booth with indifferent eyes.The man was wearing a slim white shirt, with a thin body, a thin white neck exposed under the collar, and a simple and elegant silver-white electronic neck ring, which was the most common commuting style.

Xiao Zhan had a playful look in his eyes, and a vague smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.Finally, he turned around and walked down the stairs.

Deputy Manager Qian was the first to spot Xiao Zhan, and he immediately stood up and said hello, "Mr. Xiao, go slowly."

The rest of the staff also stood up to say hello and see them off, and Lu Chuiqing also called out "Mr. Xiao".

Xiao Zhan's eyes moved slightly and landed on Lu Chuiqing's face, who happened to meet his gaze, and at that moment, Xiao Zhan passed him and left.

Lu Chuiqing didn't care about the accidental staring at each other, but felt in his heart how fierce and handsome this man was. After Xiao Zhan left, he sat down and continued chatting with his colleagues.

Xiao Zhan returned to the suite that Fang Jiaming had prepared for him, and everything was indeed well prepared.The brand new clothes are all the brands that Xiao Zhan usually wears, and the toiletries are exquisite and high-end. Red wine and desserts are placed on the small table in the balcony, and some sex products are neatly placed on the bedside table.

Xiao Zhan sat down on the desk in the bedroom, turned on the computer he was carrying, and made another phone call after a while.The boy at the side circled around Xiao Zhan's leather chair, like a cat that only occupies the computer when the owner is working.

Xiao Zhan didn't want to talk about him, he just talked on the phone, letting the boy kiss him, his eyes were always calm.

Seeing that Xiao Zhan didn't say anything about him, the boy simply leaned into Xiao Zhan's arms and kissed his chin and throat gently.Xiao Zhan glanced down at the boy, then reached out and stroked his hair slowly.

The boy reached out to unbutton Xiao Zhan's shirt, his body sank slowly, and finally he knelt down on the floor.The boy's hands gently stroked the fabric of the trousers on Xiao Zhan's knees, and his fingers stretched out to Xiao Zhan's belt——

Xiao Zhan suddenly stood up from his chair, walked to the balcony, and poured himself a glass of red wine.

Yuan Ning on the other end of the phone said, "When will this report be released?"

"After a year." Xiao Zhan said, "Don't worry."

Yuan Ning is the general manager of Value Scan. He originally worked in Zhongming Fund, but was later poached by Xiao Zhan to Value Scan.His original boss, Fang Jiaming, also intended to provide his nephew with a few right-hand men in the business field, so his job-hopping went smoothly.

It's just that Xiao Zhan's vision is vicious, and he poached Fang Jiaming's senior executive candidates who have been trained for many years at a glance.Fang Jiaming had been in pain for several days, and took this opportunity to blackmail his eldest nephew for two pieces of liquor. He also asked Yuan Ning to find out about Xiao Zhan's situation from time to time.

Yuan Ning and Xiao Zhan are about the same age. The steady development of value scanning in recent years is inseparable from Yuan Ning's credit.

"Understood, I'll make arrangements."

After the call was over, Xiao Zhan turned around, and the Omega boy was still sitting there, looking at Xiao Zhan eagerly.Xiao Zhan took a sip of the wine in his glass and said, "I'll ask someone to take you back."

The boy's face was filled with disappointment, and he said, "Mr. Xiao...I don't want to go back."

Xiao Zhan remained silent.

The boy said cautiously: "Did I make you angry somewhere? You haven't paid much attention to me these days..."

Xiao Zhan loosened his tie: "Go back, I'm going to rest."

The boy was taken aback, he knew that he didn't have any capital to bargain with Xiao Zhan.

When he was alone, the only thing he looked forward to was a call from Xiao Zhan asking him to come over.He knew that he might be just one of the innocuous people around Xiao Zhan, but Xiao Zhan was everything to him now.

He also knew that Xiao Zhan would not always like him, but he did not expect this day to come so soon.

The boy sat on the ground disappointedly, thinking of his decadence and uselessness, he said hoarsely: "Mr. Xiao, you don't want me anymore, I don't know what else I can do...don't drive me away, okay? I will listen to you Yes... I can help you have a baby!"

Xiao Zhan watched him quietly for a while, and finally said slowly: "Go out."
