Flower of High Mountain [Sword Three]

"After arriving in City C, go to see Kaicheng's people first. Lu Tezhu said, this time Mr. Jiang will come in person, and he will definitely be able to negotiate the contract."

During the weekend, Wei Tao deliberately read through the contract with Kaicheng this time, so as to roughly understand the direction of the negotiation between the two parties.On Monday morning, he picked up Jiang Zhen and set off for City C. The atmosphere in the car was not very good, so Wei Tao had something to say.

After hearing what he said, Jiang Zhen nodded and said, "The cooperation with Kaicheng is not difficult at all, they are just waiting for me to show my face."

Wei Tao didn't understand, and asked, "Why? The contract was not signed, and the construction period has been delayed."

Jiang Zhen rubbed the center of his brows, with a desire to teach others, and said: "This project involves the leaders above. It is true that you can earn a lot if you do it well, but it is not a trivial matter to get through the preparations in the early stage." When Jiang Zhen said this, he paused: "Although our Jiang family has a close relationship with the higher-ups, we don't have the ability to surpass the sky. Seeing that it is fat, we have to eat it slowly and carefully. If you are in a hurry, Stomach trouble." He said and looked towards the driver's seat: "When things get serious, it's not just stomach trouble. I'm afraid it will be fatal."

Wei Tao's face darkened, he knew all about this, but he didn't think so deeply.I thought to myself, Yuemo is because his business has not expanded to the whole country, so it can't affect the dynamics above.After all, their family is a local snake in City A, and they didn't want to eat a fat man with one bite.

"It's almost here, stop at the next service station, have something to eat before getting off the highway."

Wei Tao looked at the time displayed on the car, it was twelve o'clock.They only need to drive for a while, they can get off the highway, and they will be able to enter the urban area before one o'clock.Now when Jiang Zhen said that he was eating at the service station, Wei Tao didn't understand.

"Aren't you going to eat in the city?"

Jiang Zhen turned his head and looked out of the window: "Kaicheng's dinner party at night is indispensable, so why don't you join us at noon?"

Wei Tao suddenly realized that Jiang Zhen had thought through all these details.

How many dinner tables has he been so familiar with?While Wei Tao admired him, he also felt a little distressed.

Jiang Zhen's nickname is the prince, because his vision and skills make the bosses feel fearsome.But no one knows the hard work involved.

Wei Tao glanced at Jiang Zhen in the back seat of the car with his eyes closed in the rearview mirror, and his eyes softened.

When they arrived at the service station, the two ate fast food and continued on their way.It didn't take long to arrive in city c.

They didn't delay for a moment, Jiang Zhen called Kaicheng's people as soon as he entered the city.It takes only four to 10 minutes to get off the expressway to the front of Kaicheng Building.

Wei Tao followed Jiang Zhen into Kaicheng, and the person in charge, Mr. Wu, greeted him immediately. As soon as the conference table was set up, a dozen or so people sat down, but in just over an hour, the contract was signed.

Wei Tao watched this process, and finally realized in his heart that Kaicheng's so-called contract issues were all excuses.As soon as Jiang Zhen came to City C, all problems were solved.

At the end of the meeting, the two bosses shook hands and said they had a good cooperation. Jiang Zhen closed the document and handed it to Wei Tao.

When Mr. Wu saw him, he asked with a smile, "Look at me, what's your name? I thought I could have a drink with Lu Tezhu today."

Jiang Zhen replied blankly: "Lu Fanlin has other things to do. This is my secretary, Wei Tao."

Mr. Wu nodded, and shook hands with Wei Tao: "Lu Te's nickname is not drunk, how is the little brother?"

Just as Wei Tao was about to speak, Jiang Zhen said, "I'll drink with you today, but he can't drink much."

Wei Tao pretended to be embarrassed and smiled, knowing that Jiang Zhen didn't want to let himself get drunk.

"The prince is here, let's go to the construction site first?"

"it is good."

Before it was time to eat and drink, Mr. Wu led Jiang Zhen to the construction site.Wei Tao naturally stayed behind to see the coveted land.Although the contract has not been signed, the crane has already been shipped in.

Seeing this situation, Wei Tao understood what Jiang Zhen said a little bit deeper.

Speaking of which, he has been holding his breath after the dispute with Jiang Zhen.It wasn't until Saturday night that Wei Tao's mood improved a bit after the account of standing aside to enjoy the flowers was transferred to the new server, entered the guild, and greeted the members of the guild carelessly, but Jiang Zhen had no special reaction.

After all, no matter whether it is team formation, battlefield or arena, Zhenshui Wuxiang has never refused.

It just hurt Wei Tao himself.In order to avoid the confusion of cutting screens, he deliberately turned on two computers.Apart from not being able to play arena together, everything else is fine.

On Sunday, he organized a ten-person Candle Dragon Hall, and let Er Shao Weiwu and Tang Xiaobao express a warm welcome to the new chicken standing aside to enjoy the flowers.

Logan said at that time: "My elementary school brother has no problem with battlefield, dungeon, and arena command. Let's just recruit people to help now."

Using Wen Zhai's account, Wei Tao said: "I don't want to expand the guild, as long as there are 25 members, it's enough for the basics."

After that, everyone expressed various opinions one after another. In the end, Jiang Zhen said: "I agree with Wen Zhai" and finally determined the development route of the gang.

He used to order Zhenshui Wuxiang to form a team when he went online, and he was bound to do all the tasks. Zhenshui Wuxiang didn't refuse, and the two seemed to be in a romantic relationship.

After a weekend, Wei Tao's sullenness finally dissipated.Today he was in City C again, and the smog in his chest disappeared without a trace with Jiang Zhen's few words, and he forgot all the disputes with Jiang Zhen.

At this moment, Wei Tao looked at the group of people around the dining table, and finally understood why Jiang Zhen had to eat at the service station at noon.

Kaicheng definitely came prepared this time.

There were ten people at a table, besides him and Jiang Zhen, Kaicheng occupied eight of them.Said to be the person in charge of this project, but looking at the eating posture of the last few people, Wei Tao knew that they were sent to drink.

Doing business in China and negotiating contracts are mostly at the dinner table, but the contract between Jiang and Kaicheng has been finalized, this is just a polite dinner, why put such a battle?

Wei Tao couldn't understand, so he looked at Jiang Zhen.The other party had a calm expression on his face, as if he had long been used to such occasions.As soon as the official words were finished, Mr. Wu winked, and the people below began to come up to toast in turn.

Wei Tao is a secretary and only needs to drink for one round.Jiang Zhen was different, what to drink and what to drink, his expression remained the same.

At this time, Wei Tao could still think of Jiang Zhen's drinking posture in the gang gathering, and he was always used to it.Wei Tao felt pain in his heart, but he couldn't stop it.He wanted to block the drink just now, but was pushed back by Jiang Zhen with a look.

Halfway through, Jiang Zhen went to the bathroom, and Mr. Wu pulled Wei Tao to talk.

The two of them came and went as if they were practicing Tai Chi, and they spoke clearly and logically, but in reality they were just nonsense.In the end, Mr. Wu, an old fritter, had to admire Wei Tao, showing a slightly surprised expression, thinking in his heart: the prince is not surrounded by fuel-efficient lamps.

With a wink, the person in the last seat grabbed a few mouthfuls of food, and then took turns to give Wei Tao a round.

The boss doesn't refuse, and his little secretary is even more difficult to refuse.Fortunately, Jiang Zhen returned quickly, and the flames of war were pulled over by him again.

Drank and ate.Mr. Wu clamored to greet the prince to be happy again.Jiang Zhen was not interested in those romantic places at all, waved his hand and said, "I made a lot of preparations for this two days ago, and I have to go to see Secretary Chen tomorrow. I really can't make a mistake."

With Secretary Chen as a shield, Mr. Wu could no longer entangle, so he sent someone to send Wei Tao and Jiang Zhen back to the hotel, and they separated.

Wei Tao has seen Jiang Zhen drunk, and this guy is all on his breath.The people outside looked like human beings, and when they entered the room, they were unloaded in one breath, and they were paralyzed like a ball of mud.

Wei Tao frowned and put him on the big bed in the inner room, took off his coat and tie, covered him with a quilt, closed the door, and found a comfortable chair outside to sit down.After leaning on for a while, the stamina of the wine picked up, and my mind was a little dizzy.

Knowing that he couldn't sit and fall asleep like this, he took his pajamas, took a shower, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and didn't know anything.

Wei Tao was woken up by knocking on the door.He hummed twice, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Zhen standing beside his bed.Just as he was about to ask a question, someone covered his mouth.

After knocking on the door for a while, there was no sound. Wei Tao's heart skipped a beat, and he knew something was wrong.

Suddenly, the bedside phone rang again.In this dark and quiet room, the sound was so loud that it made one's heart tremble.

After thinking about it three times, the phone stopped.Wei Tao had a feeling that this call was made by the person who knocked on the door.

Sure enough, after a while, there was a complaint from outside, and then there was really no sound.

Jiang Zhen withdrew his hand, took two steps back, and sat on the sofa.Wei Tao would be an idiot if he didn't know what the situation was.

He has heard of many scandals in the circle, and love is always sent to his door in this way.

After thinking about it, Wei Tao got up and looked at the door.

He usually wouldn't hang up the anti-theft chain, but now he hung it on the door properly.

"Are you not drunk?"

Jiang Zhen raised his eyes: "Drunk. But I have been like this since I was a child. I can wake up immediately after being drunk for an hour at most."

That's right, otherwise, how could he find himself to accompany him to Gong County after he got drunk that day?

Wei Tao rubbed his hair, turned on a bedside lamp, and sat down on the bedside: "Did you always encounter such things when you were on business trips?"

"Even if I meet you, I don't need to worry about it." He stood up and went inside: "You are tired too, go to sleep."

Wei Tao smiled: "I was so scared that I woke up, how can I still fall asleep."

Jiang Zhen walked to the door of the inner room, stopped, turned and leaned against the wall, and looked at Wei Tao.There was an unknown atmosphere in the air, and Wei Tao couldn't help shivering.

"You haven't graduated yet, so you probably haven't had any business affairs by yourself." Jiang Zhen said slowly: "I offended people in city C, and there are always people who want to catch my pigtails. This project involves a lot of problems. , alarming the higher-ups, if I cause some romantic disturbances, the higher-ups will not be able to get rid of the responsibility, and this project will really have to be stopped. How do you think it will be resolved?"

Wei Tao didn't expect Jiang Zhen to say these things at this time, but when he thought about it, he knew that this was him teaching a class.So put away the joking attitude just now, and thought about it seriously.

"From the inappropriate negotiation of the project contract to the dealings with Kaicheng's people, everything seems to be aimed at you. But the contract has already been signed. If something happens, Jiang will definitely not be able to run away. Kaicheng Sincerity is not good-looking."

Jiang Zhen pursed her lips: "That's all superficial, you are still too young, and haven't touched the dirty things inside. What is the contract? You invested money, and someone took your excuse to blame you, saying that you didn't care about cooperation. Interests, the matter is deadly, and it is so involved, it must be settled. You are a businessman, you can't let the money go to waste, let alone let the company lose its reputation, what should you do?"

Wei Tao frowned tightly, "I'm afraid that's not the point."

Jiang Zhen stared at Wei Tao, nodded, and said softly: "At first, the superiors trusted you, and many relationships were easy to go, but they were really caught, and the superiors did not trust them. This matter between the government and the businessman can be said No more."

Wei Tao pursed his lips, "You've always expected what's going to happen in City C."

Jiang Zhen didn't reply, and said after a long while: "It's also my fault for being too radical when I was young. What I did in City C was unethical, and I should be calculated."

Wei Tao thought for a while: "At that time, you probably not only hindered the business here, but also had a lot of influence. Chairman Jiang asked you to come to see Secretary Chen in person because of another meaning. I heard that Secretary Chen will have a chance to be promoted in the second half of the year. Walk."

"It's good to know, there's no need to explain it." Jiang Zhen sighed softly: "I'm resting."

"Jiang Zhen."

"Ok?"

Before Jiang Zhen could react, she fell into an embrace.The person holding him tightened his arms, as if he wanted to confirm something, or made a decision.

Jiang Zhen didn't struggle, and just let Wei Tao hold her like this.

It suddenly occurred to him that Wei Tao hugged himself in the same way by the river in Gong County.

At that time, he said he didn't want to see him like that.Could it be that he looks like that again now?

Jiang Zhen couldn't tell the difference.

"I will learn, I will learn."

Wei Tao's voice was right next to his ears, word by word, extremely firm.

He didn't say what he would learn, but Jiang Zhen seemed to know.He opened his mouth silently, wanting to say a few words of comfort, but in the end he didn't say a word.He could only reach out his hand and pat Wei Tao on the back.

This guy... But what should I do?

Wei Tao loosened his hands slowly, and the two looked at each other under the light of a bedside lamp.For the first time, Wei Tao had the idea of ​​learning how to socialize and do business, because he felt how eager this person in front of him was to do whatever he wanted.

But he only did what he wanted once, and he had to make up for so much afterwards.

Wei Tao thought, he understood why Lu Fanlin sent him to City C.

"You are simply chasing after."

Jiang Zhen's words made Wei Tao laugh: "Well, stand aside and enjoy the flowers and enjoy the real water without fragrance."

I don't know why, but I just thought of this sentence and said it without any concealment.

Jiang Zhen was slightly stunned, and raised the corner of his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

Wei Tao waited quietly for him to speak, but he tightly closed his lips, not uttering a word.After a while, he went to his room, and when he closed the door, he said, "Let's take Wen Zhai to the arena." Without giving Wei Tao a chance to refute, he slammed the door shut.

Wei Tao's mood is quite broken now, how could he open two accounts to play in the arena by himself! ?
