The blazing sun scorched the earth, and there were no crowds on the spacious sidewalks, only threes and threes, or holding umbrellas, sweating quickly on the whitening bricks, or wiping the beads of sweat on their foreheads, hiding in the shadows of the bus stop, looking forward to the early arrival of the bus like a big tin can, although it was still not easy to be crowded like sardines after going up, but at least there was a cool breeze blowing on the bus.

A taxi drove up and stopped on the side of the road, Yang Guo pushed open the door, held up an umbrella, and walked down with Qiqi in his arms. The driver opened the front window near the side of the road, pointed outside and said to Yang Guo: "Just walk in along this road!" ”

Yang Guo looked at it and smiled: "Okay, thank you, master!" He pulled the folded stroller out of the car and closed the door.

The taxi drove away, Yang Guo held a big umbrella, unfolded the baby stroller, and after holding Qiqi in, the roof was also pulled down, like a big lid shrouded the whole car in its shadow, and then Yang Guo was satisfied to push the car towards that road.

Walking into the path for a few tens of meters, Yang Guo was surprised to find that this was a new world. Although there is no murmuring water, and there are no beautiful women holding oil-paper umbrellas, there are towering trees in each courtyard here, and the canopy is like a canopy, covering the sun and leaving a coolness. Rich greenery and mottled spots of light interweave into a quiet and elegant picture.

Most of the people who walked were old, but they were still dignified and well-dressed, some seemed to be friends for many years, met on the road, and greeted warmly, some faltered, but their demeanor was pleasant, and they walked slowly but did not get anxious about it.

This is an alley that is different from the fast-paced metropolis of Yangcheng, for such a leisurely and elegant place, Yang Guo has a sense of trance that has traveled to the water town in the south of the Yangtze River. But pay attention to listen carefully, the unique charm of Cantonese is suppressed and frustrated in the meantime, and there is no trace of Jiangnan Wu Nong's soft voice, only then can Yang Guo confirm that he is not lost.

Walking two hundred meters forward, Yang Guo saw his destination this time - Mudu Teahouse. The teahouse is decorated with antique, it is completely a wooden structure, and even the plaque is also made up of four traditional characters of "Wood Lingering Incense", looking at it from afar, there are some smoky old traces of fire, and it seems that it is some years.

Yang Guo, who has read a lot of books, still knows a little about the word "Mudu". Mudu is the name of an ancient town, in the late Spring and Autumn Period, Wu Wangfu sent in order to please the beauty of Xi Shi, deliberately built a lot of construction on Lingyan Mountain, timber was transported from all directions, the river and port under the mountain were actually blocked, so there was an allusion to "building blocks", and the name of the town also came from this. Yang Guo guessed that the word "lingering fragrance" should be related to the beauty Xi Shi, is it talking about the fragrance of the beauty when the tea is opened? With this name, perhaps the owner of the teahouse has some relationship with the ancient town of "Xiu Guanjiangnan".

The ashlar stone is the step, decorated with soft moss, although it is a little wet, but it does not make people feel slippery. The quaint old men from all over the world all lifted their trouser legs and stepped on the eight steps with light steps, smiling, as if they had returned to their hometown.

Yang Guo picked up Qiqi, lifted the baby stroller with one hand, walked briskly across the steps, and then put her back in the car and pushed her into the teahouse.

Just crossed the threshold, a waiter, no, it should be called Xiao Er here, greeted him with a smile, he was wearing a Tsing Yi gown, a towel on his shoulder, half-bent over, stretched out his hand and greeted: "Guest officer, please inside!" ”

Yang Guo nodded, and as he walked forward, he secretly praised the service of this teahouse.

He asked, "How many of you, officer?" Have you booked a table in advance? ”

"I'm looking for Mr. Yao Dehua, Mr. Yao, he's already here, right?" Yang Guo said.

When he came to the teahouse today, it was not that Liu Suqin arranged a blind date for him again, but that Yao Dehua, the vice president of Xinda Company, called him to ask him to come out and have something to talk about. Yang Guo felt very new about this, he originally thought that Xinda Company would always be hidden behind the network, just a platform for translators and "mercenaries" to send tasks! Since the boss of the place where he earns money sincerely invited, Yang Guo also readily agreed, so he had today's trip.

"Mr. Yao has arrived, please come with me." Xiao Er smiled and walked around to lead the way.

On the second floor, at a position close to the railing, a middle-aged fat man with Mediterranean hair saw it, stood up with a smile, stretched out his hand to Yang Guo, and said, "Presumably you are Mr. Yang Guo Yang!" Hello, contemptible Yao Dehua. ”

"Mr. Yao, hello." Although he has not been able to understand Yao Dehua's intentions, Yang Guo's first impression of Yao Dehua is still good, as the vice president of a large company, it is really rare to be able to be so polite and virtuous, Yang Guo also smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with him.

Yao Dehua invited Yang Guo to sit down and ordered tea and snacks with Xiao Er. After sending Xiao Er away, he smiled with Yang Guo: "Mr. Yang, I guess you must be very puzzled why I asked you to come out to see you, right?" ”

Yang Guo nodded.

"Before that, I would like to briefly introduce myself to you," Yao Dehua said, "You should have known my position, I am currently the deputy general manager of Cinda Group, the general manager is my brother, Cinda Group can be said to be a family business, and I also own a certain stake in the company."

It can be said that I have single-handedly developed the translation market of Xinda, and I have managed it over the years. And after more than 10 years of development, we are ready to set up Cinda Translation Company in the second half of this year, as an independent subsidiary of Cinda Group, in the future, the translation market will be operated by Cinda Translation Company, Cinda Group will no longer interfere with the management and strategy of the new company, and I will become the general manager of the new company. ”

Yang Guo looked at him in a daze, what was he talking to himself about? Yang Guo had no choice but to smile and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Yao." ”

"Haha, don't think what I'm saying has nothing to do with you." Yao Dehua said with a smile, he briefly told Yang Guo about Yang Guo's birth to help him complete the military order. Because of Yang Guo, he won the time to spread the translation market outside Guangdong Province, and Xinda Translation Company was successfully established, and Yang Guo really played a big role.

Yang Guo asked strangely: "Mr. Yao, shouldn't you have made a special trip to thank me?" I really can't stand this. can help you, it can only be said that it is unintentional planting. But don't you know, if it weren't for the money-making place we found in your side at that time, our father and daughter would have run out of ammunition, and we would have to thank you! ”

"Mr. Yang, you really deserve to be from a foreign trade background, and you can speak well. In this case, don't say anything about thanking or not thanking, keep the kindness in your heart, haha! Let's also have a fate, we have to drink a cup and taste the tea of this teahouse, this is a wonderful place that the old Yangcheng people don't necessarily know! Yao Dehua laughed.

Yang Guo took a sip of tea from the tea bowl, and felt that the fragrance was rich in the mouth, and the tea soup was sweet and cool to cool off, it was indeed not a treasure that ordinary clubs could drink, no wonder Yao Dehua, a big boss, would choose this place to meet him.

"Not bad indeed! This tea, is Biluochun? Yang Guo said in surprise.

"Haha, Mr. Yang turned out to be a person who understands tea, and he tasted it after taking a sip. That's right, this is the authentic Dongting Biluochun, and even the water for making tea is the water from a clear spring on Baiyun Mountain in the early morning. Yao Dehua had some tea and bosom friends, and he introduced it to Yang Guo in detail.

Yang Guo said with a smile: "Mr. Yao, since we are so close to each other, don't call me Mr. Yang, just call Yang Guo or call me Xiao Yang." ”

"It's okay, then I'll call you Xiao Yang, don't call me Mr. Yao, how rusty? Just call Brother Yao. Yao Dehua smiled.

"Brother Yao." Yang Guo responded.

"Since you call me Brother Yao, I won't go around the bend with you, I also like to talk straight, this time, I actually want to invite you to join my new company." Yao Dehua said bluntly.

In fact, a long time ago, Yao Dehua had the idea of inviting Yang Guo to join, but at that time, he had been busy laying out markets outside Guangdong Province, and the company's several gold medal translators were quite enough, so it was temporarily shelved.

In recent weeks, the entire chessboard has been lined up, and only the final start and the brutal market competition remain. At this time, he received a report from the translator department, and Yang Guo, who is currently the strongest gold medal translator in the company, has a new situation - he actually started the task of translating French and German!

Most of the language learners do not master only one foreign language, and the same is true of several gold medal translators in the translation department, who have mastered other languages in addition to English. But there is a specialization in the art industry, this sentence is not wrong, except for Wu Pingze, the level of the second foreign language of others can only reach the level of the silver medal. Therefore, in terms of small languages, the translation department also has special gold medal translators for each small language, but there are relatively few talents in small languages.

According to the feedback from the gold medal translators of the minor languages who reviewed Yang Guo, they actually expressed their admiration for Yang Guo's translation, which shows that Yang Guo's level in French and German is also excellent!

A translator who has shown a super high level not only in the field of English, but also in the field of two small languages, and is so young that he is almost destined to become a generation of grandmasters in the future, how can Yao Dehua still sit firmly in Diaoyutai? Even if he has a lot of money, Yao Dehua is willing to put down his body to make friends with Yang Guo, of course, it would be better to recruit the master into his command while he has not yet grown up.

Yao Dehua's conditions for Yang Guo are also extremely lucrative: the position of deputy manager of the translator department of the new company, in charge of all translators of small languages, with an annual salary of 600,000 yuan. It is important to understand that the annual salary mentioned here is paid by the company, and the money earned by Yang Guo by doing tasks is not included. In other words, as long as Yang Guo does a good job in daily management and sometimes needs to do the review and training of gold medal translators, he can use his working hours to earn more money.

Yao Dehua also explained to Yang Guo that the reason why he was only given the position of deputy manager was mainly due to the fact that Wu Pingze's qualifications in the company were relatively old. As soon as Yang Guo came in, Yao Dehua couldn't give him a higher position than Wu Pingze. But he promised that if Yang Guo could make a greater contribution to the rapid development of the company, it would be appropriate to become the boss of the translator department in the future.

After saying that, Yao Dehua looked at Yang Guo expectantly. His eyes were full of nervousness and hope, and he held the bowl of tea in his hand for a long time, but the tea was cold, but he never had the intention of drinking it.
