Chapter 505: Something Old

Wen forgive did not go back to the room, and took the elevator directly to the hotel lobby. InterContinental is most famous for its refreshments and cocktails at the Lobby Lounge, which offers floor-to-ceiling windows that offer a view of Victoria Harbour at nightfall. Since it was not too late, Wen Liang was lucky to find a place by the window, and ordered calendula tea and a three-tier snack set recommended by the waiter, with traditional English muffins, original, grapes and ginger flavors, the muffins are fragrant and fluffy, with Earl Grey tea jelly, grass plum sauce and cream on the top of the shelf, extremely delicious.

Wen Liang tasted this thing for the first time, and was very interested, so he called the waiter to ask, only to know that the so-called gel was originally made by putting high-grade Earl Grey tea leaves into pre-prepared sugar water and boiling for about 5 minutes, so that the flavor was released, and then the tea leaves were separated, and fish gelatin powder was added to solidify it, and then it could be used to accompany the muffin.

Among the pastries on the second layer of the shelf, Wen Yu's favorite is the lemon tart, which is moderately sweet and sour, and the smooth cream and fresh flesh make people whet their appetite. But the most surprising thing is the bottom layer, smoked salmon with yuzu sauce, which makes you swallow all the tongue.

After enjoying a Western-style refreshment, looking at the watch warmly, it was almost eight o'clock, and when I was about to go upstairs, suddenly a fragrant breeze hit my nose, and in the blink of an eye, there was one more person in the chair opposite, wearing the most popular red lace pleated dress this summer, setting off the delicate face with light makeup, all revealing indescribable luxury and beauty.

Wen Liang was stunned for a moment, turned his head and looked around, that's right, this is indeed Pearl City, not the capital, not Qingzhou, but who can tell me, why did you meet Zhu Zixuan in the lobby of the Intercontinental Hotel?

"How. Did you see a ghost? ”

Zhu Zixuan obviously felt a little faintly proud of being frightened and forgiving, and said, "I really didn't expect to see you here." ”

Wen Liang recovered from a short period of stunned, couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, and said, "Yes, I didn't expect it, why did you come to Mingzhu, travel?" ”

"It seems that your perception of me is still the same as the child who only knew how to play before......" Zhu Zixuan smiled slightly, and looked at the other place five or six seats away. There are three fashionably dressed beautiful girls looking at this side, looking at the gossip one by one, snorting and saying, "Those are my new colleagues, I am working in Mingzhu now!" ”

Wen Liang turned his head, and one of the short-haired girls in a coffee-colored OL top and a black jumpsuit raised a glass to him, which was kind of a hello.

Nodding kindly, he asked, "I saw you last time." Didn't you say that you went to Joaquin? ”

"Well, I'm still in Joaquin, but Joaquin just established the Pearl branch last month, and I was transferred to be a department manager."

I see.

The memories of my past life flashed back in my mind like a movie about time out. Wen Yu vaguely remembers that in 97, Huaxia International Capital Co., Ltd. helped Huaguo Telecom complete its overseas initial public offering, raising a total of more than US$4 billion, becoming the largest IPO in mainland China that year. And Joaquin also took advantage of this opportunity to open up his fame. Mingzhu branch was established and began to expand overseas business.

It's just that I didn't expect Zhu Zixuan to be sent to Mingzhu, Asia's premier financial town, as a department manager, and she has talent. has only been in the industry for less than a year, and it seems that a certain brother who is a manager at the top of Joaquin has great expectations for her, and he spares no effort to support her, but it is not just as simple as gilding.

"Congratulations!"

Wen Liang raised his hand to summon the waiter, and gave Zhu Zixuan's three colleagues a few refreshments, and they should have talked about it when they met their old acquaintances in a foreign country, but the relationship between the two was a bit complicated, and there were too many things coiled in his heart, so he didn't have the heart to stay here longer, so he stood up and said, "Then you guys play, I'll go first." ”

"Hey, what's the hurry, I haven't asked you yet."

I don't know if it's because of being far away from the capital, Zhu Zixuan is more self-contained than when she last met, but she has regained a little bit of her bright vitality in the past, and she just pulled Wen Liang to sit down. And the three female colleagues who had been paying attention to the movement here made an "oh" sound at the same time, and I don't know who said something ridiculous, and they suddenly laughed and fell.

Zhu Zixuan was afraid that Wen Liang would not be able to hang on his face, so he hooked his fingers and made a threatening gesture of gouging out his eyes, the three girls stretched out their tongues, and the short-haired girl even folded her hands and bowed, just as the waiter sent the refreshments over, saying that it was sent by Wen Liang, which immediately caused the girls' favorability to skyrocket, and Le's face became a flower.

"Ignore them, three old girls who can't get married."

"It seems that you get along well with your colleagues," Wen Liang is not a hypocritical person, since Zhu Zixuan opened his mouth, he will not leave without throwing his hands, and it is a good thing to meet her, if he can pass the quarrel just now into Lei Fang's ears through her mouth, the credibility will increase a little more, he bent down and sat down, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhu is willing to let you come all the way to work in Mingzhu?" It's so far from home......"

"He wished I had stayed away so as not to upset him." Zhu Zixuan's eyes were clear, the corners of her lips smiled, and she said, "Don't change the topic, you haven't told me yet, why did you come to Mingzhu?" ”

"I'm traveling, it's summer vacation, just come out and have fun."

"Alone?"

"Oh, that's not it," Wen Liang refilled his tea and said, "There are more people, there are a few of my classmates, and a few friends, by the way, and Ning Xi." ”

"Sister Xi is also there?" Zhu Zixuan's voice was a few degrees higher, attracting the sideways eyes of the people around her, she quietly stuck out her tongue and said in a low voice: "Where is Sister Xi, why haven't I seen it?" ”

Wen Liang pointed upstairs and said lightly: "I'm busy up there, I guess you won't be able to see it for a while." ”

Zhu Zixuan is already smart, this year's experience in Joaquin has trained a pair of vicious eyes, carefully looked at the gentle look, and seemed to notice that something was wrong, but she was very careful not to ask, and said, "What are you busy with, you don't eat...... Uh, are you, aren't you, aren't you......"

Zhu Zixuan's eyes suddenly widened, looking incredulous, she pressed her hands down with her gentle hands, signaled her to calm down, and said with a smile: "The wall has ears, pay attention to words!" ”

Zhu Zixuan looked around cautiously, and simply sat on the chair on Wen Liang's left, and said, "You're lying again, aren't you?" ”

Wen Liang laughed and said: "The use of scientific knowledge and financial tools to speculate on financial derivatives under the premise of legality and achieve expected gains or unexpected losses, this is the current situation of the most high-end financial industry, how can it be a lie?" Besides, isn't that the kind of business you're doing in Joaquin? It's not good for a thief to shout to catch a thief, right? ”

"This is what you taught me yourself, whether it is a stock index or futures, in the final analysis, it is a 'deception' word, and what you have said doesn't count?"

"Well, this ......" Wen Yu cocooned himself, feeling a little powerless, and said: "Okay, even if it's a lie, but one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, it's nothing." ”

"Oh, I'm afraid the Thai government is not so willing to be beaten!" Zhu Zixuan joked.

Wen Liang raised his eyebrows and said, "Thailand is too far away, we don't care what he thinks, but Miss Zhu, you are a waiter for three days, let me be impressed, how can you guess what we are doing as soon as you listen to it?" ”

Zhu Zixuan smiled: "I said it just now, will I forget it?" What am I doing now? We're all in the same boat......"

The reason why Zhu Zixuan can guess it is because she saw Wen Ning's methods of cooperating with Ning Hi-Tech to turn the clouds and rain on it, which left a deep impression on her, and the reason why she chose Joaquin was also influenced by that time; The second is related to her company, Joaquin, as a state-owned enterprise with a deep official background, is stationed in Pearl City at this time, which represents more than just expanding overseas business.

Wen Liang also thought of this layer of course, from last year Ning Huchen instructed Ning Xi to meet Lei Yunhai to report the possibility of an economic crisis in Asia, and then not long ago Chen Longqi personally summoned Ning Xi, he has already shown the attitude of the central government - face up to the crisis and resolutely deal with it!

And the first place to be vigilant is naturally Pearl City!

If it is said that when the economic crisis suddenly erupts, it can also catch the central government off guard, in the case of such a pre-warning, how to deal with it, how to raise, there are countless cattle people to give advice to the leadership, and it is not the turn of Wen to point fingers, so he has always ignored how to avoid the upcoming impact of Pearl City, not indifferent, but knows that things have been implemented to this point, and his personal power is very limited.

Rebirth is certainly open, but it's not so powerful!

"Of course, in addition to the fact that we are peers, I also know that Sister Ning Xi raised a large amount of money in the capital some time ago, and there are no less than fifteen famous and surnamed red second and third generations involved......"

"You even know that?"

"Brother Feng sued me, he also invested 200 million yuan, saying that it was fun, but in fact, he may not have much expectation of Sister Ning Xi." Zhu Zixuan couldn't help but be curious, and said, "How much did you vote?" ”

Wen Liang still remembered the Feng Shao who drove the Dodge classic car, and said: "I am a rich man, where can I compare with your Sister Ning Xi, it is not worth mentioning!" “

Zhu Zixuan determined what happened between the two of them this time, picked up the spoon and stirred the teacup, the ticking sound was so pleasant in the slightly noisy lobby, but it revealed a bit of vicissitudes and depression.

"In a bad mood? Did you quarrel? ”

Wen Liang was startled, and hurriedly covered up the slight unnaturalness on his face, and said, "No, what a good quarrel!" Don't think about it, come, it's idle anyway, I'll invite you to a drink. ”

At this time, the lights came on at the bar counter on the other side, and Ben Davidson, the champion bartender of the World Cocktail Competition, walked in, and in a moment a large crowd poured up, cheering, screaming, and excited!

The night of the pearl has never been lonely! (To be continued......)
