Chapter 147: I don't want to let go
The three of them found a clean small restaurant nearby and asked for a private room.
While waiting, Meng Zitao asked: "Brother Hongchang, weren't you in charge of technology in the company before, why did you come to Jinling on a business trip?"
Meng Hongchang's face deteriorated a little when he heard this, and said, "Hey, I've met a villain." β
"What's going on?" Meng Zitao asked.
Meng Hongchang said with some resentment: "Our company has a new technical director, this guy likes to pat on the back the most, and he likes to pat on the back the most, if this is the case, then I won't say it, the key is that this guy has no ability at all in terms of technology." β
"Once, because of a technical problem, I pushed him once, and he kept giving me little shoes to wear, and I couldn't stay any longer, so I moved to the sales department. However, even in the sales department, he made me uncomfortable, and I guess it won't be long before I have to quit. β
Meng Zitao was surprised: "Didn't you say earlier that the boss of your company values you very much?"
Meng Hongchang said angrily: "It's me who is blind and sees the wrong person." I used to think he was good, and he took care of his subordinates, but I didn't expect this guy's ears to be too soft, and he was coaxed by the deflated three to say a few words, so he listened to the deflated three, and now he can't be cold to me. β
Speaking of this, he sighed: "Hey, the technical director was very important to me at the beginning, and when he left, he wanted to take me with him, but I just thought that the boss was good to me, so I politely refused, but in exchange for such a result, I regret it when I think about it." β
Meng Zitao said: "Anyway, you have the skills, why don't you just come out early?"
With Meng Zitao's current connections, it is still easy to find a job for Meng Hongchang. The key is that Meng Hongchang has strong self-esteem, so he didn't say it directly.
Meng Hongchang said: "I'm really not worried about finding a job. The key is that I feel too aggrieved sometimes. I'm going to make some moves, and with my understanding of the company, it's possible to bankrupt the company, and then let them taste the fate of messing with me!"
Meng Zitao said with a serious face: "Since you feel aggrieved, you should change jobs and show them your achievements when the time comes, instead of using this crooked way that hurts others and is not beneficial to yourself, to retaliate against them." If you do, it will affect you for the rest of your life. β
Meng Hongchang said with a smile: "You're right. And this is also what I thought after I was very angry, I was not so stupid, and I fell into it for revenge. I plan to officially resign when I go back this time, but even if I mix well in the future, it will be for my own sake, and they are just an insignificant incident. β
"That's good!" Meng Zitao clapped his hands with a smile, and then said, "If there is anything I need help with in the future, just say it." You two don't have to be polite. β
"Haha, you said that we are brothers, what else is there to be polite. β
Looking at Meng Hongchang's hearty smile, Meng Zitao felt a little emotional. What he admires most about Meng Hongchang is this, no matter what, he will not affect himself because of hatred. It's easy to think about things when you encounter them. And he has some shortcomings in this regard, and he should learn from Meng Hongchang.
Of course. Meng Hongchang is not without grudges, he is like the old saying in this regard. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.
The waiters served the food one after another, and Meng Zitao and Meng Hongchang also recounted their experiences.
When talking about Meng Zitao's antique shop, Meng Hongchang remembered something: "By the way, what you asked your former colleagues to investigate, do you have any results?"
Meng Zitao said: "There was a result a few days ago, it is indeed a good thing that Xue Wenguang did, but now that he has disappeared, I can't help even if I want to trouble him." β
Meng Hongchang was a little speechless and said: "Do you say that this guy has a problem with his brain, he was wrong at the beginning, and you should retaliate against him, why is it that he has fallen now?"
Meng Zitao smiled and asked: "Why does your current technical director hate you? The reason is actually similar, some people are naturally small, and they can't tolerate people who were inferior to him to be more powerful than him. β
Meng Hongchang nodded and said, "You're right to say that, but I always feel that this shouldn't be something he can do alone, right?"
Meng Zitao sneered: "Of course, if Xue Wenguang's energy is so great, he won't be mixed up like this, and as for who is behind him, I also have points." β
"Since you know who it is, why don't you fight back?" Meng Hongchang said: "Xiao Tao, I think you are a little bad, you like to calm things down, if you want to say that when the other party has the upper hand, it's okay for you to endure it, and now you are a little capable, why do you have to hold yourself back?"
Meng Zitao said with a smile: "I'm not a fool, it's just because I couldn't be able to do it before, so I will calm down, otherwise who is happy to pretend to be a grandson?"
Speaking of which, it is really ridiculous for Meng Zitao to think about his original idea now, he is afraid of this and that, and he is naΓ―ve, but now he looks at it, it is completely his own worries.
And Lu Changdai really wants to deal with him, and someone will help deal with it if he orders him casually, just like now, with Xue Wenguang saddle his horse before and after, if Lu Changdai did this at the beginning, it would be useless even if he was afraid.
While talking and laughing, Meng Zitao received a call from Song Xiuping.
After a few words of greeting, Song Xiuping asked, "Shopkeeper Meng, did your friend encounter something before?"
"yes, but the matter has been settled, and those two guys have been locked up. β
"Is that person's name Yan Tong'an?"
"Yes, that's the name. β
Song Xiuping hesitated for a moment and asked, "This...... Shopkeeper Meng, is he a big deal?"
Meng Zitao asked a little strangely, "What, do you know him?"
Song Xiuping sighed: "Hey, I don't want to know this guy either, but life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten, and some things are not something I can decide." I can't tell you on the phone, where are you now, I'll look for you. β
"I'm eating near the testing center now, why don't I go to the antique city to find you later?"
"No, no, I'll come here......"
After hanging up the phone, Meng Hongchang asked, "What, someone wants to intercede for that guy just now?"
Meng Zitao replied, "Yes. β
"You can't agree to this, that is, you just happened to meet you with good eyesight, and you have acquaintances here, if you change it to someone else, it will be miserable, you can only spend money to eliminate the disaster, the key is that this is twenty, and the grandson behind it has risen to 300,000!"
The more Meng Hongchang talked, the more angry he became, and he almost slapped the table in the end.
Meng Zitao also felt that Yan Tongan was very hateful, and he would be able to find that Professor Qiu to help him immediately, it was definitely not the first time he had done so, and this kind of person should be locked up and sober.
"Don't worry, we won't wronged a good person, and we won't let a bad person go. β
Towards the end of the dinner, Song Xiuping rushed over.
Meng Zitao made an introduction to everyone and asked politely: "Shopkeeper Song, have you eaten?"
"I've eaten it. Song Xiuping waved his hand and asked, "Shopkeeper Meng, what the hell is going on, I have to trouble you to talk about it." β
Meng Zitao recounted the story and asked, "Could it be that Yan Tongan is your friend?"
Song Xiuping recovered from the shock and scolded: "Phew, who has such a shameless friend as him!"
Speaking of this, he hesitated for a moment, and then said helplessly: "He is my wife's cousin-in-law, but we don't get along with each other for a long time, but my wife and her cousin have a good relationship, Shopkeeper Meng, can you know my difficulties?"
Everyone can also express their understanding of Song Xiuping's difficulties, they don't want to help, and because of the relationship between relatives and wives, they have to come forward, otherwise they will be poked in the back by others.
Meng Zitao asked, "Shopkeeper Song, I don't know what your opinion is?"
Song Xiuping thought for a while and said, "He has done this kind ......of thing, what else can I do? Can the sentence be reduced by two years. β
Meng Zitao shook his head: "This matter is really not for me to decide, and besides, the extent of Yan Tongan's crime is not known now, so even if you want to help, it is best to wait for a while." β
"I don't want to help with this kind of person, but...... Hey, let's talk about it then!"
Song Xiuping gritted his teeth, feeling very depressed, how could he have such a relative?
After being silent for a while, Song Xiuping arched his hand to Meng Zitao: "Shopkeeper Meng, I've caused you trouble this time, if there is anything I can help with in the future, please just ask." β
"It's not your fault what you say. β
Meng Zitao smiled and waved his hand, through this period of contact and understanding, he knew that Song Xiuping's conduct was still good, and if it wasn't for his relatives, it was unlikely that he would have anything to do with people like Yan Tongan.
"By the way, I really have something I want you to help with. β
"What's the matter?"
"Do you have about 10,000 yuan, more characteristic antiques, I am going to buy them as a birthday gift. β
"Can't the price be higher?"
Meng Zitao said: "The price can come and go a little, but it is best to pay about 10,000 yuan, and if it is too high, it may not be charged." β
Meng Hongchang said: "You are really stupid, if you don't say the price, won't he know?"
Meng Zitao said angrily: "You really think I'm a fool, I don't even know this? The key birthday star is an old-timer in our industry, do you think you deceived him?"
Song Xiuping interjected: "The birthday star you are talking about is Zheng Lao, right?"
Meng Zitao was a little surprised: "How did you guess that it was Zheng Lao?"
Song Xiuping said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Meng, you are from Lingshi, you said that you are an old-timer, and I know that Zheng Lao is born next month, so I guessed it." β
Since Song Xiuping had already guessed it, Meng Zitao no longer concealed it, and said: "It is indeed prepared for Zheng Lao's birthday, and you also know his character, so in terms of gifts, it must not be expensive, but it must be representative." (To be continued.) )
