This café located on the third floor of a Grade A office building is simple and elegant, the wall decorations, table knick-knacks are all handmade products collected from all over the world, it can be seen that the owner is a stylish person, and has spent a lot of thought and money on the layout of the café.

The environment here is elegant, and the people who come in and out are all gold-collar people with a lot of income, so the price of coffee is also quite expensive, which makes Li Yan, who is used to a thrifty life, a little uncomfortable, and finally only asks the waiter for a free glass of lemonade after reading the menu for a long time.

High-end cafes naturally provide high-end services, and the waiters here have undergone many trainings before they take up their posts, so they did not show disdain because of Li Yan's frugality and simple clothing, and still smiled and said goodbye to prepare drinks for them.

"At that time, our project department should also have such a place for leisure and relaxation, but there is no need to make it all into such a closed small box, and then divide an area to make an open communication place for the employees of the project department to collide ideas!"

"Just like the tea room in Princeton?" Li Yan did not disagree with Lu Qiujian's suggestion, "There is already a large space left in the plan for leisure and entertainment, and I think it can fully meet your needs." ”

"In addition, we also need a gymnasium, a video game hall, a small movie theater, as well as a roller skating rink, billiards room and so on!" Lu Qiujian smiled, "The project department is still some distance away from Chang'an City, and it is not convenient for them to enter and exit, so you have to provide some dating places for the young people in the project department!"

"Ha, it's no wonder that when you were formulating the recruitment criteria, you asked civilian staff to give priority to women when the conditions were equal! It turns out that you have thought of this a long time ago!" Li Yan and Lu Qiujian discussed the planning of the base, and looked at the door from time to time. Now fifteen minutes have passed since the appointed time, why hasn't Li Long come yet.

"Don't worry, it's normal for the financial industry to work overtime, even a billionaire like Simmons is no exception, let alone a newcomer!" Lu Qiujian persuaded, and then the two continued to discuss what supporting facilities should be in the base.

Another half hour passed. Li Long, who was in a hurry, appeared at the door of the café, Li Yan hurriedly got up and beckoned him over; Lu Qiujian observed his senior, only that he looked ordinary, but his eyes were extraordinarily smart, wearing a temporary Armani suit, shirt and tie were also of the same brand, from this point it can be basically judged that this is his first set of high-end formal wear, which also makes Lu Qiujian somewhat understand why he attaches so much importance to salary; after sitting down, he took two breaths to calm his breath, thinking that maybe he ran down the stairs directly just now.

"I'm sorry. Professor Lu, Li Gong, I'm late!" Li Long didn't explain too much about the reason for his late arrival, and formally apologized to them.

"It's okay, I also know the work style of the financial industry very well!" Since he couldn't even wait for the elevator and ran downstairs, it could be seen that he still attached great importance to this opportunity, coupled with his character of not making excuses for his tardiness, Lu Qiujian's good impression of him quickly increased by a notch.

"Senior hasn't eaten yet, right? first order something to eat to fill your stomach, and then we'll talk!" Lu Qiujian took the menu and handed it over. It was almost eight o'clock now, and he must be hungry. "The two of us didn't eat either, so we just ordered food together!"

Li Long was not restrained, he generously ordered a set meal, Lu Qiujian and Li Yan also ordered their favorite things; Lu Qiujian found an interesting thing when he ordered it, he and Li Long, two Chinese people, ordered steak, but Li Yan, a white man, ordered a rice set.

"Hey. I think it's too awkward to use a knife and fork, I can't learn how to learn, and I'm still comfortable with chopsticks!" Li Yan explained as he looked at their curious eyes.

Li Long couldn't hold back a snort and laughed out loud, it is really rare to be more skilled with chopsticks than with a knife and fork! Laughter is the best way to bring people closer to each other, and this little episode made the slightly serious atmosphere between the three of them disappear. By the time they finished eating, the three of them were already talking and laughing.

Li Long also calmly explained to Lu Qiujian the reason why he was entangled in salary, "As for me, I grew up in the countryside, and it is not easy for my family to provide for me to go to college.

"That's why I put forward such a condition during the interview, I really like to do scientific research! So I don't expect the salary you give me to settle down in the capital, but my parents are old, if there is a physical problem, you have to let me pay for their medical expenses, right?"

"It doesn't matter if I suffer a little myself, but my parents have worked hard all their lives, and I can't make them live comfortably in my later years, so I can't say it! That's why I came to work in my current company!" After speaking, Li Long looked at Lu Qiujian frankly, and his eyes vaguely shone with a certain expectation.

"A doctorate from a top university in the world, proficient in English, French, German, Russian, and Japanese, and a person with such ability needs 400,000 a year, which is not much at all!" Lu Qiujian also said sincerely, "Even if it is a fresh graduate of our alma mater, it costs 120,000 a year to go out to find a job, and some companies want it!"

"However, you also know the current system of our country, according to the previous regulations, Engineer Li really can't make this decision! Moreover, our situation does not meet the requirements of the Changjiang Scholars Program and the Hundred Talents Program! As for the Outstanding Young Scholars Science Fund, it sponsors scientific research funds, not personal remuneration! That's why I let you go for nothing!" Lu Qiujian said after giving some explanations. However, I still have some power in the Xihe Project, and I think you are fully worthy of this salary, so I would like to ask, if the salary meets your requirements, are you willing to resign and join our team?"

"Of course, we must have made up for your current salary, and what I can give you is only half of what I am now, that is, 200,000 yuan a year! If the project goes well, there will still be some bonuses! But it can't be compared with the bonuses you might get in a financial company!" After speaking, Lu Qiujian looked at him quietly.

"Personally, I am very willing to continue scientific research, but now there is another very serious problem!" Li Long said. (To be continued.) )

PS: I'm going to push it tomorrow, I'm so nervous!
