"Ding Ruoyan, I heard that the big American boss is going to your house as a guest, is it true?" On the way out of school in the afternoon, Meng Xiaomiao took Ding Ruoyan's arm, blinked her big eyes, and asked with great interest.

Meng Xiaomiao and Ding Ruoyan not only live in the same building, but also the two have been classmates since kindergarten.

"How do you know?" Ding Ruoyan was a little surprised, what her mother was saying to herself this morning, telling herself to hurry home after school in the afternoon, don't play crazy outside, how did Xiao Miao already know?

"Oh, who doesn't know now?" Meng Xiaomiao's eyes were full of excitement: "It has long been spread in the compound of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, saying that the big American boss is going to your house by name." ”

"Do many people know?" said this, Ding Ruoyan didn't feel strange at all, the compound was like this, whoever farted in the middle of the night, the whole unit knew about it the next day, not to mention that such a distinguished foreign guest came to visit his house This kind of thing has never happened before.

"Anyway, many people know," Meng Xiaomiao leaned closer to Ding Ruoyan, with a curious expression: "Ruoyan, I heard my dad say that the American is very young and still a Chinese, is it true?"

"I don't know, but my dad said it seemed like this. ”

"It's really a Chinese, alas......" Meng Xiaomiao automatically took Ding Ruoyan's words as a certainty, and suddenly there was some longing in his eyes: "I heard my dad say that the American boss is rich, and he lives alone in a boss manor, and there are dozens of people waiting for him, and I don't know that there are dozens or hundreds of cars...... What do you think a foreigner's manor looks like, how big is it?"

At dinner last night, Meng Xiaomiao's father couldn't help but talk about Chen Geng's situation in the United States at the dinner table, of course, he couldn't help but sigh, and some of the words were naturally remembered by Meng Xiaomiao, for example, Chen Geng is very young, only in his early twenties, for example, Chen Geng is very rich, worth at least tens of millions of dollars, for example, he has a big estate......

Yes, how big is that manor?" Ding Ruoyan couldn't help but recall some details that his father once said: "I don't know how big it is, but my dad has been there, and it seems that Mr. Chen Geng's manor not only has a forest, but also a small lake." ”

"Wow...... Meng Xiaomiao's eyes straightened: "He has a small lake and a forest at home, how big does that have to be?"

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl whose house is only about 50 square meters can not imagine the concept of a lake and a forest in someone's home.

Not only Meng Xiaomiao couldn't imagine it, but Ding Ruoyan couldn't imagine it, especially after his father inadvertently sighed: "This Chen Dong's family has a villa specially used to entertain guests, and there is usually no one living in it", Chen Geng's self-portrait formed in his heart became even taller.

"Who knows, I guess it shouldn't be smaller than Prince Gong's Mansion. Ding Ruoyan boldly gave a guess.

"That's for sure. Meng Xiaomiao nodded again and again, and the eyes of the little villain were full of longing: "Americans are really rich......

"That's not the case, my dad said that Americans are not very rich, such as this Mr. Chen Geng, in fact, he was very poor before, in order to do business, he mortgaged the only house left by his parents to the bank, and he also lost the business, if the business is not done, let alone live in a big manor, he can only sleep on the road......"

"There are poor people in the United States?" Meng Xiaomiao's eyes widened, and his face was incredulous: "I thought Americans were rich." ”

"How is that possible? How can you have such an idea?" Ding Ruoyan scoffed at Meng Xiaomiao's idea: "My dad said that there are rich people in every country, there are also poor people, and there are even homeless homeless people, the capital of the United States: In the park in Washington, D.C., there are many homeless homeless people living in it at night, so you can't go to the park at night, otherwise you will be robbed by those homeless, and those homeless people dare to kill people for a few dollars......"

"Really?"

"What do you think ......?"

"Ruoyan," Meng Xiaomiao suddenly grabbed Ding Ruoyan's arm: "Are we good friends?"

"Of course we are good friends," Ding Ruoyan looked at this good friend who grew up with him strangely: "What's wrong? Why do you say that?"

"Can you take me to your house?" Grabbing Ding Ruoyan's arm, Meng Xiaomiao pleaded, "I just want to see what those Chinese in the United States look like......

Although Ding Ruoyan was also very curious about Chen Geng in his heart, he said: "What else can it be, just like us." ”

"You'll take me to see it, please......"

"This ...... I don't count if I say it," Ding Ruoyan looked embarrassed: "I heard my father say that our ministry attaches great importance to this matter, this is the first time that foreign friends have come to visit our country's private home, which is of great significance, and there must be no mistakes......

"I know I know," Meng Xiaomiao nodded again and again, and at the same time folded her hands and pleaded with her good friend again and again: "I heard my father say that Mr. Chen Geng's visit to your house is not a simple and private visit at all, but a big step in our country's diplomatic work...... I don't know what it means, but it seems to be very important, and I heard my dad say that even the above takes this matter very seriously......"

"Then I don't know, but you all know that this matter is so important, aren't you afraid that you will cause trouble for your father after you go?"

"There is this possibility, but you haven't thought about it, with me going home with you, let's go to your house to do our homework together, doesn't it seem more natural?" When he said this, Meng Xiaomiao pinched a handful of sweat in his palms...... Let's hope what Dad said will work.

Although I don't know why my father must let me convince my good friend Ding Ruoyan and let Ding Ruoyan take her to his house, but the eldest girl who is already a teenager, she vaguely knows whether she can go to Ding Ruoyan's house this time, which seems to be very important to her father.

Ding Ruoyan frowned, and was somewhat convinced: it seems to be ...... Is that true?

"That'...... I'll try it," Ding Ruoyan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "But maybe there are people downstairs in my house, and I can't guarantee whether you can go up." ”

"Great," Meng Xiaomiao happily pulled Ding Ruoyan's arm and jumped twice, and said excitedly: "Don't worry, I'm just going to your house to do my homework, and by the way, let's see what that Chen Geng looks like, and I won't make trouble for you." ”

........................

Coming out of the garden, Chen Geng gently rubbed his temples.

"Boss, I'll help you pinch?" Looking at Chen Geng's tired appearance, Mirren said softly.

"Hmm......" Chen Geng responded, turned his head, and lay directly on the back seat of the car, pillowed his head on Mirren's lap, and closed his eyes to enjoy this rare leisure and relaxation time.

According to the original plan, the meeting lasted 45 minutes to an hour, but in fact Chen Geng chatted with the old man for two and a half hours, during which the old man postponed the work arrangements for this afternoon again and again, not only talking about the Iranian revolution, the issue of Iran and Silly Damu, and the issue of his upcoming visit to the United States, but even talked about his views on reform and opening up...... In the end, even the old man's secretary was anxious.

The old man is still unsatisfied, before leaving, he repeatedly told Chen Geng, must come more, and he has been in the foreign country to chat with a lot of knowledge, but also have a lot of understanding of the way of thinking and habits of foreigners, for his visit to the United States is very helpful, is bitter Chen Geng, these two and a half hours, his nerves have been in a highly tense state, thinking full operation, for example, when he works on weekdays, the brain is a 1500 rpm/ The engine continued to run at a speed, so in this meeting with the old man, his brain was running in the red line range almost the whole time, and what was even worse was that he couldn't show his tired appearance in front of the old man, but Chen Geng was tired.

Of course, tired and tired, the harvest is also huge, the old man made it clear that he hopes that Chen Geng can walk more, see more, it doesn't matter where he wants to go, what he wants to see, what he wants to invest in the industry, just come back and talk about the pro is also welcome, if Chen Geng intends to invest, Huaxia must give his company the best policy, the best conditions......

In a word, Chen Geng can be regarded as the most delicious first soup to drink the reform and opening up.

"Alright. After about ten minutes, Chen Geng opened his eyes and sat up: "Thank you." ”

"Serve the owner. Mirren smiled playfully, she had heard a lot of "serving the people" in the past few days, and she quickly learned to use it and modified this sentence slightly.

"Ha......" Chen Geng was happy all of a sudden: "Yes, because of this sentence, I should give you a raise." ”

"Okay, you say, how much?" Americans are so direct, they never know how to be modest and polite: You say a raise? Say, how much?

Chen Geng said without thinking: "I will add 1,000 US dollars a month to you." ”

This is not something he said casually, the matter of raising Mirren's salary is actually something he has been thinking about for this time, with the increase of his wealth, as his personal assistant and the actual role of the chief housekeeper, Mirren's salary is now a little less, and the salary is small, and his competitors may buy and buy her at a relatively low price, so it is urgent to increase Mirren's salary...... Look at those rich people, those bodyguards and personal assistants around you, which one doesn't have an annual income of more than six figures?

Although high income is not directly equated with the loyalty of his subordinates, it is absolutely indispensable to let the people around him have a higher income.

Mirren also knew this, so she was not surprised by Chen Geng's salary increase, and she was even mentally prepared for a long time.
