More Than A Few Blessings

When it was time to eat at noon, Lu Chengyu looked at a table full of various farm delicacies, including three dishes made of fish ingredients, fish head tofu soup, boiled fish, and pickled fish.The design and color are not as exquisite as those in the big hotels, but people can't help but move their index fingers at a glance, and he can even smell the sour smell from the pickled fish.

"It's rare for everyone to get together so well today, let's have a drink," Zhuang Yu picked up the wine brewed by the farmer himself, "Brothers are so familiar with Xiao Lu, so I don't need to introduce you again."

The others smiled and raised their wine glasses, and made a few jokes, but they had already brought Lu Chengyu into their circle.

Lu Chengyu is not a person who pretends to be lofty. When others hand him an olive branch, he is of course willing to take it. He picked up the wine glass and stood up and said: "You guys are older than me, so I have the audacity to call everyone brother. I will drink this glass of wine first." Do it for your respect." After speaking, he raised his neck and drank it.

Everyone present already knew that Lu Chengyu was Yan Mu's assistant, and he was a student who had just graduated, so after he drank the drink first, although several people applauded Lu Chengyu's straightforwardness in unison, no one continued to drink. Instead of wine, we started to taste the food together lively, and chatted about the big and small things that happened recently.

"Among the few of us, Lao Zhuang and Brother Mu should be the most proud." Qi Jingfeng, who is also counted as one of the people in the capital, has a close relationship with Yan Mu and the other three, and he said enviously, "You are all You are a successful person, unlike me, who is still doing nothing and running a small company with family money. Having said that, the popular "Flying Bird" these days has made you a lot of money, Lao Zhuang. I heard that the box office is almost over [-] million, is it true?"

Zhuang Yu laughed a few times, apparently in a very good mood, "This is really an accident. When I introduced it, I thought the box office might exceed [-] million. How could I know it would be so popular?"

"Isn't it just a movie that costs several million, can it make such a profit?" Qi Jingfeng frowned, "The movie I voted for last year cost tens of millions, and it almost didn't cost me."

"There is no other way," Zhuang Yu shook his head. "Investing in movies is a matter of luck and vision. Now this popular movie is selling well. The shows are full of ancient costumes and high-cost movies, and the audience is a little tired. Who wants to watch those empty and depressing blockbusters during the holidays, it is better to watch something interesting and relaxing. So this "Flying Bird" is a table of fat Can the only small green vegetable in the greasy meat sell well?"

As the investor of this movie, Lu Chengyu smiled and listened to the conversation between the two. He has already discussed with Zhuang Yu about delaying the release of the movie "Flying Bird".According to the current momentum, there should be a box office of about one billion when it goes to the theaters. This does not include the income from major TV stations and online broadcasting platforms. Thinking that he will soon become a billionaire, he will I feel refreshed all over.

In the previous life, the total box office of "Flying Bird" was only nearly [-] million. This may be because there was no publicity in the theaters in the early stage.In this life, he cooperated with Zhuang Yu, and Zhuang Yu contributed to the promotion of the movie theater, and because he didn't dictate the movie during filming, the effect of the whole movie was better than in his previous life, and the money he earned would be even higher. Not surprisingly.

"But this is too monstrous," Qi Jingfeng lit a cigarette and held it between his fingertips, and took a puff, remembering that Yan Mu and Zhang Zeyun didn't smoke, so he stifled it out again, "Who is the investor in this movie? The old man is jealous."

"People don't want to reveal it, and I don't know too much about it." Zhuang Yu didn't look at Lu Chengyu's direction, picked up a piece of fish belly, tasted it, and said with a smile, "The fish Xiao Lu caught tasted good. , Brothers, try it out."

"I just complained a few words. Anyway, whoever makes money won't share it with me. It's useless to ask." Qi Jingfeng put a chopstick of fish into the bowl, and said to Lu Chengyu, "Xiao Lu's fishing level is higher than Lao Zhuang's. Now Lao Zhuang has an opponent." He is a smart man who knows the rules in the circle, and since Zhuang Yu couldn't speak up, he didn't ask any more.

Lu Chengyu smiled: "I have been fishing since I was a child, and this is more than ten years of operating experience. The fish that died on my hook can circle this farmhouse." He tasted the fish, "However, there are still fish left. We bought so many fish, shall we bring them back later?"

"Fart, just brag, why don't you say that the fish you caught is like a certain brand of milk tea, which can circle the earth twice?" Zhuang Yu smiled and pointed to the dishes on the table, " Now let's finish the table first."

Zhang Zeyun glanced at Zhuang Yu, he always felt that something was wrong with Zhuang Yu at noon today, and he didn't have much communication with Brother Mu during the whole process.And brother Mu too, usually because he likes to be quiet and doesn't like to join in the fun, why did he take the initiative to come today?

Lu Chengyu chuckled, "The earth is too big, and my fish is too small, they can't do it." Looking back, seeing that Yan Mu has been eating fish almost from the beginning of the meal to now, and didn't move his chopsticks much for other dishes, he said to him: " Boss, I think that stir-fried cauliflower with bacon tastes very good, try it."

Hearing this, Yan Mu stretched out his chopsticks to pick it up twice, one for meat and the other for cauliflower. After eating, he nodded to Lu Chengyu, "Thank you."

"You don't need to thank me for such a small matter," Lu Chengyu smiled. "You took care of me twice when I got drunk. If you want to be as polite as you, don't you have to promise yourself?" As an employee, he is really flattered.

"Ahem," Yan Mu suddenly choked on the food in his throat and his face turned red. Seeing that he was so uncomfortable that he couldn't even speak, Lu Chengyu hurriedly scooped up a bowl of chicken soup for him to drink a few sips, and said after seeing that he felt much better, "Are you OK?"

Yan Mu shook his head very calmly, put down the soup bowl and wiped his mouth with a paper towel: "It's okay, thank you..." Remembering what Lu Chengyu said just now, he swallowed the word thank you at the back, and continued to stretch out his chopsticks to pick Pickled fish.

Seeing that Yan Mu seemed to be on the hook today, Lu Chengyu raised his eyebrows, and turned to pick out his favorite food. After all, the behavior of watching others eat is still very disgusting.It would be a tragedy if such a good boss had a negative impression of him.

Zhang Zeyun found that Zhuang Yu was looking at Brother Mu again at this moment, so he couldn't help scanning the two of them suspiciously. Could it be that the two had a conflict today?But with Brother Mu's personality, it would be very difficult for Lao Zhuang to have a successful conflict with him.

After a meal, all the uncles in the room were full of stomachs. Lu Chengyu looked at the slightly bright autumn sun outside the window, smelled the faint scent of osmanthus, turned his head and said to Yan Mu: "This time, the Mid-Autumn moon cakes, Colleagues seem to be very satisfied."

"Well," Yan Mu paused, and asked hesitantly, "Will you still work in the company in the future?"

"Where are you not in the company?" Lu Chengyu didn't think much when he first said the words, and it took a few seconds to realize what Yan Mu's words meant. The other party felt that he had made a lot of money investing in movies and was unwilling to work in Huading anymore. ?

"Other things are hobbies, and doing things in Huading is my serious job." Lu Chengyu felt that he had to show his loyalty to the boss, so he said in a joking tone, "I am also a member of this class of the Q University Economics and Management Branch. Representative, if you don't mix in the business world in the future, how will the alumni have the nerve to face the teachers and alumni of their alma mater?"

"Well, I can't bear you either." Yan Mu seemed to feel that his words were inappropriate, and added, "You are a rare and good employee, and Huading needs you."

"Then boss, you must send me a generous red envelope for Chinese New Year this year. I will be more motivated when I have money," Lu Chengyu said with a smile, "It would be boring to get no red envelope for Chinese New Year."

Yan Mu nodded seriously: "Okay." He thought for a while, "After this year, I will give you a salary increase." Lu Chengyu's ability to work has exceeded the salary he received.

This time "Flying Bird" was released, and Huading's products have also increased a lot of exposure. The following data reports show that the number of sales has been increasing significantly recently, which is all the benefits brought by this movie .

Under the serious eyes of the other party, Lu Chengyu felt a little embarrassed, coughed dryly, pointed to the grape arbor outside and said: "Let's go there and sit and drink tea for a while, the room is not interesting."

Yan Mu stood up, took two steps towards the door, saw that Lu Chengyu was still sitting, and asked, "Aren't you going?"

"Go," Lu Chengyu reacted, stood up and was about to follow, Zhuang Yu on the side stepped forward and hooked his shoulder and said, "I'll go with you, they are going to play mahjong later, I don't care about that thing I'm not interested, why not chat with you for a while."

"Okay," Lu Chengyu asked the others, and when they couldn't answer, he put his backhand on Zhuang Yu's shoulder, "Let's go."

Zhuang Yu laughed, pretending not to see Yan Mu's gaze on his shoulder, maintaining the posture of hooking shoulders with Lu Chengyu, walking all the way to the grape trellis before letting go of his stiff arms.He consciously chose a seat on the side, watched Yan Mu sitting between him and Lu Chengyu, silently accepted the bold guess that he couldn't believe before.

Halfway through the tea, Zhuang Yu took advantage of Lu Chengyu's time to go to the bathroom, and looked at Yan Mu several times, and finally made up his mind: "Brother Mu, Xiao Lu..."

"What's wrong with him?" Yan Mu slowly turned his head to look at him.

He laughed dryly, feeling that he couldn't continue to ask the matter, so he said, "It's pretty good."

"Well," Yan Mu nodded, and said very seriously, "So I will train him to become the backbone elite under my banner."

"It's good to be an elite," Zhuang Yu nodded again and again, "It's good to be an elite."

Yan Mu turned the teacup in his hand around, and continued to speak calmly: "I like him very much, too."

Zhuang Yu: "..."

Yan Mu picked up his teacup and took a sip, then turned to look at the path leading to the toilet, Lu Chengyu was walking around the corner, his lips curled slightly, "I'm serious."

He opened his mouth, but Zhuang Yu didn't know what to say. From an ethical point of view, as a friend, he hoped that Yan Mu would find a virtuous and gentle woman to spend his whole life with.But from an emotional point of view, he also hopes that Yan Mu will find someone he likes, no matter who the other party is, as long as the two are sincerely together, supporting each other and living a happy life is the best.

Moreover, he also knew that Lu Chengyu was not a badass or a phoenix man. No matter from which point of view, Lu Chengyu was the type that was popular with the opposite sex. Compared with Lu Chengyu, Brother Mu might be slightly inferior in this regard.

Fuck, thinking about it this way, why does it feel like Mu Ge is a toad and wants to eat swan meat?

He shook his head, and finally just sighed: "Xiao Lu is very good, but does he know what's on your mind?"

Yan Mu drank his tea in silence, but Zhuang Yu, who was familiar with him, knew that Yan Mu was a serious person.People with this kind of advantage also have a problem, that is, they have determined something, let alone eight horses, even sixteen horses cannot be pulled back.

He sighed again, but when he turned around, he saw Lu Chengyu chatting with a young girl not far away, and the girl seemed to be pretty good looking.

Immediately, he looked at Yan Mu with sympathy.

"That's his college classmate," Yan Mu looked at Zhuang Yu calmly, without any trace of impatience on his face.

"How do you know?" Zhuang Yu was surprised.

"I've seen his graduation photo." Yan Mu narrowed his eyes. "This girl is also on the photo. If they have something, it should have happened a long time ago."

Although he believed in Yan Mu's memory ability, Zhuang Yu still couldn't help asking: "What if this girl has a crush on Xiao Lu, but Xiao Lu doesn't know what to do?"

Yan Mu touched the teacup, glanced at the girl next to Lu Chengyu, and said calmly, "Then it's impossible between them."

Just when Zhuang Yu sighed in his heart that Yan Mu was still as calm as ever, he felt a shadow flashing around him, and when he looked up, he saw Yan Mu striding towards Lu Chengyu.

Cut, pretending to be so similar, it almost made him believe it.

He just said that secret jealousy should be a must-have skill for every crush. No matter how powerful Mu Ge is, he can't escape the laws of nature.

Therefore, when God created man, although he was a little eccentric, it was generally fair.
