Chapter 987 Tiger Father Has No Dog Son?
It should be that the doorman notified Song Bo by phone when he opened the door, so when Xia Yu parked the car and got out of the car under the leadership of the Song family, he saw an old man walking towards him with a middle-aged man.
Xia Yu had seen Song Bo a few times on some occasions, so he immediately recognized him, and the middle-aged man next to him, he had also seen the photos in the information and knew that it was Song Bo's second son Song Zhicheng.
Song Bo has three wives, two sons and one daughter with the long house, one son and two daughters with the second room, and two daughters with the third room, with a total of eight children.
The three sons are the eldest son Song Zhihui, the second son Song Zhicheng, and the third son Song Zhiming.
It's just that the eldest son Song Zhihui has overstudied and devoted himself to scientific research and academics, and is not interested in business at all.
The third son, Song Zhiming, has mediocre ability, and because he has studied abroad, he has been contaminated with a lot of vices abroad, and he still can't change it after returning to Xiangjiang, so he also has a lot of interesting stories in Xiangjiang, and Song Bo is the least favored.
Compared with these two sons, the second son in front of him, Song Zhicheng, is prominent, at least interested in business.
It's just that Xia Yu heard that Song Zhicheng is only in the middle and upper echelons of the same generation, with more than enough success and insufficient progress.
As for whether the comments heard are true or false, Xia Yu has not been directly contacted before, so it is not good to make many evaluations.
But this time, I can observe it.
"Old man Song, I bother you to greet you in person, it's a sin!"
Xia Yu smiled, walked towards Song Bo with a slightly faster pace, said apologetically, and shook hands with Song Bo as he spoke.
Song Bo showed a warm smile, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze, and said cordially: "Mr. Xia's words are wrong, your arrival has made the humble house shine, this is a great blessing for my Song family!"
Xia Yu smiled and said: "Old man, you have won it, how can I compare to you with more blessings and more luck, I came this time with the idea of touching the blessings of the Song family." ”
Xia Yu's words made Song Bo feel comfortable, he smiled and said: "Haha, Mr. Xia, your own blessing is the best in Xiangjiang, it should be my blessing to touch you." ”
After speaking, he introduced his son beside him to Song Bo: "Mr. Xia, this is the dog Zhicheng, not very successful, I hope you will give me more advice." ”
"Hello, Mr. Xia!"
Song Zhicheng smiled and stretched out his hand to Xia Yu to say hello.
It's just that Xia Yu, who is observant, still found that Song Zhicheng's smile was a little awkward, obviously disagreeing with his father's words, and was a little unconvinced.
He was thirty-eight years old, and he couldn't even hear the deep meaning of his father's words, and the heat was still a lot worse.
Xia Yu shook his head secretly in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface, and said enthusiastically and modestly: "Tiger father has no dogs, old man, you are too modest." ”
"I have heard of Brother Song's name for a long time, but unfortunately I have never seen it, and I am fortunate to meet today, which is really a great blessing in life!"
"Brother Song, there will be a chance to communicate more in the future!"
Song Zhicheng's smile was obviously much more obvious this time, and he said modestly: "Mr. Xia's achievements are far above me, and I should learn more from you." ”
Song Bo suddenly patted his head lightly, and said ashamedly: "Look at me, people have poor memory, this happiness, I forgot that the current occasion is wrong, and it really shouldn't be for a distinguished guest to stand at the door." ”
"Mr. Xia, please come inside!"
Xia Yu smiled lightly and made a gesture of please and said, "Guests are as you please, old man, please first!"
"Mr. Xia, you are a distinguished guest, together, please!"
......
Soon, Xia Yu took Li Wuming to the Song family's living room and sat down, and he looked at the layout of the Song family's house.
The furnishings of the living room are regular and upright, the dark brown Bogu frame is symmetrically created, the desk cabinet is inlaid with brass, and the metal screen vaguely echoes, the flowers in the decorative paintings are quiet and elegant, as if floating with a dark fragrance, and the tea fragrance contained in the naturally carved tea table is intertwined and interpreted, and a huge plaque is hung on the central wall of the living room, with the words "quiet and far-reaching".
This kind of layout is worthy of the characteristics of the Song family's scholarly heirloom.
When making tea, Xia Yu said admiringly: "Old man, the layout of your living room is simple and elegant, and the charm is long, you have spent a lot of effort! Living in this environment for a long time, you will naturally be relaxed and happy, and you can live for at least a few more decades!"
Song Bole said hehehe: "I have spent a lot of effort on this layout, but I also have limited ability, that is, I rely on a few years of antiques to upgrade the grade, compared to Mr. Xia, if you want to arrange, you can definitely be several times more elegant than me." ”
"You can build a Jiuding Cultural Museum with a lot of money, there is no reason why the family will be bad, haha......"
Xia Yu shook his head with a smile and denied: "It's different, it's different......"
At this moment, the tea was brewed, and Song Bo made a gesture of please and said: "Mr. Xia, please use the tea, taste my Biluochun, this is the new tea produced this year, specially entrusted to bring it back from Suzhou, it is one of the best products!"
"Then I'll have to try it. ”
Xia Yu smiled, picked up the teacup and sniffed deeply, and praised directly: "Fragrant!"
Then he took another sip and praised it: "The fragrance is terrifying, the entrance is fresh and fresh, and it is sweet after drinking, good tea!"
Song Bo's eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "Mr. Xia is really knowledgeable and has a deep understanding of Biluochun, compared to you, my kid is much worse." ”
Song Zhicheng, who had not intervened and was drinking tea silently, did not expect to be belittled by his father in front of Xia Yu, who was not a few years older than his son, and felt embarrassed and shouted: "Dad." ”
Song Bo glared at him, and said with some dissatisfaction: "What, do you still feel unconvinced? Just say that this Biluochun, how many years I have drunk it, you don't have a deep understanding, Mr. Xia pointed out the essence and allusions of Biluochun in one sentence. ”
Biluochun is produced in the area of Dongting Mountain in Suzhou, formerly known as Dongting tea, also known as Dongting Biluochun, but in the folk local, it is also called scaring people's incense, according to legend, there is a nun who goes up the mountain to visit the spring, picks a few tea leaves by hand, after making tea, the strange fragrance is fragrant, and blurts out that 'the fragrance is scary', so the locals will call this tea "scaring people's fragrance". During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, the Kangxi Emperor tasted this famous tea with a green soup color and curly like a snail when he inspected it, and praised it very much, but felt that the name of "scaring people" was indecent, so he named it "Biluochun", and it has been famous since then. ”
"Mr. Xia said in one sentence, 'The fragrance is terrifying'......"
Looking at Song Bo's performance and Song Zhicheng's performance, Xia Yu smiled secretly in his heart, and had a more intuitive understanding of Song's father and son.
Song Bo is an old fox, from the beginning of the meeting to the present, he has been imperceptibly and carefully paving, secretly guarding against Xia Yu, leaving himself a way to talk while constantly getting closer to Xia Yu, and he has a good grasp of the situation.
I won't say anything before entering the house, for example, now I seize the opportunity to comment on this tea, which combines the social art of "degrading oneself and respecting others, offering ugliness and kissing", trying to quietly shorten the distance between the two parties again.
It's a pity that the protagonist is a good protagonist, but the supporting role is not, Song Zhicheng didn't understand his father's deep intentions, but he couldn't let go of his son, and wasted his father's good intentions.
With the wisdom and city government that Song Zhicheng is showing now, it is impossible to conclude whether Xia Yu will keep it for the time being, but he really does not look like a pioneering and enterprising person.
Compared with him, the sons of Bao Yugang's son-in-law Wu Guangzheng, Huo Yingdong, Li Jiacheng, Li Zhaoji, Zheng Yu and others that Xia Yu has seen are much better.
Seeing his son's embarrassed expression, it seemed that he was a little disappointed with his son Song Zhicheng's performance, Song Bo simply ignored him, and chatted with Xia Yu again.
Xia Yu is good at dancing with long sleeves, and there is a lot of flattery between words, which makes Song Bo, who is in a bad mood, laugh from time to time, and the atmosphere becomes warm again.
Seeing that Song Bo didn't ask about his intentions, Xia Yu secretly said to the old fox, and then found an opportunity, and after Song Bo laughed, his face turned straight, and he immediately said: "Old man Song, I came to disturb you this time, because I have a matter to discuss, and I want you to bring one or two." ”
Song Bo's heart sank, put down the teacup he had just picked up, looked at Xia Yu calmly, and asked: "Don't dare to carry it, Mr. Xia might as well say what is the matter first, if I can do it, I am naturally happy to help." ”
After that, he added in a joking tone: "If it is beyond my ability, I will do my best." ”
The words in the scene were said so cautiously that Xia Yu couldn't help but be a little speechless.
He just didn't hear the latter sentence, and said with a light smile: "Old man Song, things are not difficult, I heard that the Song family holds 16% of the equity of Cathay Pacific Airways, I hope you can do me a favor and sell it to me, in terms of price, I will not let you suffer!"
Although Xia Yu euphemistically used the word "heard", he directly pointed out the number of shares, in fact, he did not give the Song family a chance to shirk and deny it.
But Song Bo is not a fuel-efficient lamp, his expression is stunned, his face is embarrassed, and he seems to say to himself: "This...... Well...... How can I say that?"
Xia Yu leaned forward slightly, kept smiling, and further said: "Old man, this shouldn't be a difficult matter, after all, as far as I know, the Song family has no interest in the aviation field, even if they hold 16% of the equity of Cathay Pacific Airways, they only send a director and supervise the finances in a regular manner, and they don't seem to care about the company's operation." ”
"In that case, why don't you do me a favor and sell the equity to me, and you can concentrate resources on other core businesses. ”
"Ten birds in the forest are better than one bird in hand, you say, right?"
ps: I worked overtime until 11 o'clock and came back, and it was three o'clock in a few minutes after writing this chapter, and there was no way, I had to get up at seven o'clock in the morning to go to work......
