Li Lan kept smiling, chatting with the other party about the beautiful scenery of Shanghai, the food of Shanghai, and the news of porcelain, but he didn't mention business.

Cao Liang frequently looked down at his watch, it was already 2:48 o'clock, the other party had been talking nonsense about some inconsequential things for the past 48 minutes, he couldn't stand it, but he wouldn't take the initiative to point out the topic, so as not to fall into passivity in the negotiation, anyway, now he is not in a hurry, if the guy on the other side is not in a hurry, it will be consumed.

The bald Cao Liang interrupted Li Lan, who was about to continue talking about the housing prices in Shanghai, pointed to his watch and said, "I'm sorry, Xiao Li, I have a meeting in a while, let's get here today." ”

Li Lan smiled and stretched out his hand to stop the other party from getting up, "Don't be impatient, Mr. Cao, since Mr. Cao is in a hurry, let's get straight to the topic, what is the price of advertising?"

Cao Liang stretched out a palm, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, and said, "Five million a year." ”

Li Lan shook his head, looked at the other party playfully, and said with a smile: "Mr. Cao, is this bullying me for not understanding the market price?"

Cao Liang looked at his playful eyes, and felt very unhappy, it seems that this guy still doesn't know his situation? ”

"Not negotiable?" Li Lan asked as she stared at Cao Liang deadly.

"Originally, it was negotiable, but now, hehe, it can't be discussed. Cao Liang replied with a tone that I have eaten you.

"Can I understand that you are blackmailing me?" Li Lan said with his head sideways, squinted his eyes, and said with a playful expression.

"Bang" Cao Liang smashed his fist on the tea table, pointed at Li Lan and said coldly, "Housheng, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense, it seems that you can't talk about it today, so wait a little longer." ”

"Haha, Mr. Cao, don't be angry, I'm not joking, I like your straightforward nature, ok, I agree with the price, after I go back, I will let the business department connect with your company and draw up the terms of the contract." Li Lan walked over and patted Cao Liang on the shoulder, and said with a hearty smile.

"Okay, then contact us. Cao Liang threw himself on his shoulders as if he was a little disgusted, put on a dead face, and said.

"It must be, when the time comes, Mr. Cao must give our company more advertising recommendations!" Li Lan replied with a smile on her face.

"Hehe, don't worry, there will be advertisements!" Cao Liang looked at him with a flattering look and replied with a smile.

Then Cao Liang stood up and walked out of the room, the corners of his mouth twitched when he passed by the door, and he said without looking back: "It's good to be early, why go around in circles, waste everyone's time." ”

Li Lan didn't get up to send him off, lowered his head and picked up the purple sand teacup, took a sip of herbal tea, then took out his mobile phone, looked at the recording in the mobile phone, didn't know what he thought, smiled coldly, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Back at the hotel, Li Lan booked his plane ticket first, and then took out his phone and called an elder he had never thought of contacting.

"Hello Uncle Qing, I'm Li Lan, Li Jianbang's son, I don't know if you still remember me?" asked Li Lan enthusiastically.

"Hmm, Jianbang's son, remember, how can you not remember, remember when you were a child, you always liked to pull me on a big horse, how are your parents doing? I haven't been in touch for a long time. ”

A hoarse man's voice came out of the microphone.

"My parents are very good, and I drank with my father during the Chinese New Year and listened to him talk about you. Li Lan replied with a smile.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for many years, by the way, what's the matter with you looking for your uncle?" The man instinctively felt that Li Lan must have something to find him, so he asked straight to the point.

The man who was called Uncle Qing by Li Lan was called Wang Yuanqing, a comrade-in-arms of his father Li Jianbang's special reconnaissance company, and had a lifelong friendship, and the two were also discharged from the army together.

At first, both of them worked in a factory, and after the factory was not profitable and closed down, his father Li Jianbang chose to go to a private factory to work as a security guard, while Wang Yuanqing went away.

Everyone has not been in touch, until Uncle Qing came back to invite his father to join the gang, but his father refused with righteous words, the two had a big quarrel, and broke up unhappily, and later Li Lan heard his father mention that Uncle Qing was helping the coal boss in Shanxi to deal with all kinds of dirty work that was not on the table.

It was also that time that Li Lan saw the rare scolding of his usually gentle father, Li Lan remembered everything vividly, Li Jianbang drank a lot that day, patted the table and said to Han Mei: "Lao Tzu is his mother's to ask for food in this life, and he will never do anything illegal and undisciplined, Lao Tzu can't be sorry for the clothes he once wore." ”

Then Li Jianbang, who had drunk too much, opened his eyes with a pair of tiger eyes, looked at Li Lan and said word by word: "Little rabbit cub, you also remember to Lao Tzu, if you dare to do anything illegal and undisciplined in the future, you don't need the people's police, Lao Tzu will be the first to discount your legs." ”

Uncle Qing's phone was also the note left before leaving, which was written by Li Lan to remember.

Hearing Uncle Qing's question, Li Lan explained the matter to the other party.

After hearing what happened, Wang Yuanqing was very angry, his nephew was blackmailed and robbed, so he said: "Xiaolan, you send me the other party's photo and address, and I will ensure that others will evaporate within a week." ”

"Uncle Qing, that's not what I meant when I called. Li Lan hurriedly interrupted the other party's words.

Li Lan didn't want to make such a big scene, if this kind of thing happened, not to mention being arrested in accordance with the law for violating laws and disciplines, even after his father Li Jianbang found out, he couldn't bear that kind of consequences.

"Don't worry, Xiaolan, I'm familiar with this kind of thing, I won't leave a tail, and I won't find out about you. Wang Yuanqing thought that Li Lan was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so he said to Li Lan confidently.

"Uncle Qing, listen to me, I called you to help me investigate whether the other party's ass is clean, I really don't need you to do it, and the other party is a company behavior, and it won't work if you move him. Li Lan hurriedly explained.

"Oh, that's right, you said it earlier, it's a little simpler. Wang Yuanqing said with a smile.

"Uncle Qing, I'll send you the other party's name, photo, and address later, and your bank card number will be sent to me later." Li Lan buttoned it up and said, but thought in his heart: You didn't let me speak, and after listening to it, I was going to make people disappear.

"Xiaolan, we don't like this, it's all a family, isn't it a slap in the face if you give your uncle money," Wang Yuanqing said angrily.

"Uncle Qing, you must keep this money, even if you don't want it, what about the people below you? What do they think, let alone the round-trip journey, what kind of money, food, clothing, housing and transportation?" Li Lan said bitterly to the other party.

"No, Xiaolan ....." Wang Yuanqing had to refuse again, Li Lan argued again, and finally Li Lan directly said If you don't accept this money, just because I haven't made this call, I will find someone else to help, Wang Yuanqing had to reluctantly agree.
