Chapter 225: Helping Others
"Hehe, Lin Lao, you are smart and wise, and your eyes are like torches, so you know that you can't hide anything. If I don't tell lies in front of real people, I won't tell those false clichés. To be honest, there is one condition for Zhao Yanwu to agree to become Ling Sun's special tutor. "Now that he has talked about the topic, Zheng Jigong will no longer beat around the bush, get straight to the point, and directly put the responsibility on Zhao Yanwu's head - Zhao Yanwu is notoriously strong-tempered, admitting death, and making up his mind, the eight cows can't be pulled back, and pulling Zhao Yanwu out as a shield is equivalent to telling the other party that this is the only and final condition, either accept or refuse, there is no room for negotiation in the middle, it is useless for the king of heaven to come, on the contrary, if this condition is self-made, So with the nature of Lin Baoliang's businessman, he will definitely ask for a price and negotiate on the spot for half a day, and although his talent in this area is not weak, he is still a little worse than this businessman who has been in the business world for most of his life and has experienced countless negotiations.
"Oh, but I don't know what the conditions?" Knowing that the other party is conditional, Lin Baoliang's mood is much more relaxed, he is a businessman, he believes in 'no profit, no greed for three changes', and knows that there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world, no one is a fool, why give up his own people, not seek fame, do not seek profit to help others without seeking benefits? Being kind to others, being good to oneself is also about accumulating merit for reincarnation in future generations, not to mention that many things are not just a matter of being good or not being good. As a businessman, he is not afraid of others negotiating with himself about conditions, because as long as there are conditions to talk about, then there is a negotiation, and he can always find a deal that is acceptable to both parties, and he is most afraid of no conditions, because what he gets without conditions means that he owes an account, and when the other party wants to cash this account one day, he may not be able to afford it. Therefore, it is true that the business field pays attention to careful budgeting. There is a shrewdness to fight for every minute, but there is also a proverb that suffering is a blessing.
"Hehe, Mr. Lin also came to the chess academy during the interview and exam in the morning, right?" Zheng Jigong asked with a smile.
"Hehe, Mr. Lin also came to the chess academy during the interview and exam in the morning, right?" Zheng Jigong asked with a smile.
"That's right, Lao Yu has nothing to do today, so I accompanied Zicong to the interview, I wanted to say hello and chat with you, but I was afraid that I would be told to go through the back door, which would have a bad impact, and second, you were busy working. I was afraid of delaying your time, so I didn't do it. Dean Zheng shouldn't blame the old man for this, right? Nodding, Lin Baoliang asked with a smile.
"Hehe, Old Lin, you think about me, it's too late for me to be grateful, how can I blame you? But I'm not talking about this, but something about something you participated in at the Chess Academy today. Zheng Jigong said with a smile.
"It has something to do with something I was involved in," Lin Baoliang groaned, carefully recalling what he had done in the morning at the Jiangdu Chess Academy. "Oh, I see, you shouldn't be talking about the kid named Tan Xiaotian, right?" What a shrewd man he was. After a little thought, I thought of the crux of the matter.
"Hehe, Old Lin, you really know everything, and you are right when you say it." Zheng Jigong high-fived and applauded loudly.
"Huh. You specially brought this Teacher Zhang here, and said that it was related to the events of the morning, and it was not difficult to guess who it had to do with it. It's just that I don't know, what does this have to do with Mr. Zhao's acceptance of Zicong as an apprentice? Lin Baoliang waved his hand and asked with a smile.
"Things are actually very simple, after the game of chess is over, Mr. Zhao also watched the chess game, understood the process of the game, and spoke highly of the child's chess talent, and wanted to personally tutor the child's chess skills, but he knew that Tan Xiaotian was going to go to school in Yangzhou Chess Academy, and he regretted it, so he asked me to find a way to see if I could let the child transfer to Jiangdu Chess Academy to go to school. Kio and I also admired the kid's chess, so we held a meeting together to see what could be done. In the meantime, Teacher Zhang proposed, saying that Mr. Lin, you have communicated with the child's guardian Sun Dong, and the relationship is good, and you also gave real gold business cards to make contact, if you are willing to match, persuade Sun Dong to let Tan Xiaotian transfer must be twice the result with half the effort, and the probability of success is extremely high. Teacher Zhao was very happy after hearing this, and offered to ask Mr. Lin that if you can contribute to this matter, he is willing to be your grandson's special tutor. I don't know if you understand what I said? Zheng Jigong said.
"Oh, I see? Hehe, I didn't expect the old man's momentary unintentional move, but he gave his grandson a chance to worship under the famous teacher, which can be regarded as intentionally planting flowers and flowers, and unintentionally planting willows and willows, right? Haha, I don't know how envious others will be when they hear this. Hearing what Zheng Jigong meant, Lin Baoliang laughed - he was not without ideas when he gave Sun Dong a business card, his own grandson was also learning chess, older than Tan Xiaotian, but his chess strength was not a little worse, and Sun Dong got closer, hoping that Sun Dong could often take Tan Xiaotian as a guest at his own home, so that his grandson and Tan Xiaotian became friends, and with the influence and example of a friend like Tan Xiaotian, the motivation of children to learn must be much greater than that of their family every day. Therefore, the conditions proposed by Zheng Jigong this time are also exactly what he wants, if Tan Xiaotian can enter the Jiangdu Chess Academy to learn chess, his grandson will be the brother under the same special tutor as him, and get along day and night, wouldn't it be better than meeting on the rest days of the few days every month?
"Hehe, as the saying goes, 'good people have good rewards', this is exactly the blessing of Lin Lao, you often do good deeds. So, you're always willing to be the middleman? Strike while the iron is hot, Jacky Cheung immediately asked.
"Well, for the sake of my grandson's studies, I have to give it a try, or when Sun Dong comes to me, I'll tell him about it." After thinking about it, Lin Baoliang replied - Yangzhou Chess Academy opened at the beginning of this year, and he and Dong Yong didn't have any friendship, compared with the two, of course he wanted to help Zheng Jigong, who was more familiar with the relationship, not to mention that this matter was also related to his grandson, this kind of thing that is beneficial to both parties, why wouldn't he do it?
"Haha, so you've always agreed?" Zheng Jigong was not at ease, so he asked another question in order to be sure.
"Promised." Lin Baoliang replied briskly.
"Haha, great, now I will go back and have an explanation for Mr. Zhao." Zheng Jigong applauded and smiled, feeling refreshed.
After the two of them laughed, Jacky Cheung interjected, "Old Lin, since you are willing to be the middleman, according to the humble opinion of the juniors, this matter should be sooner rather than later, and it is best to contact Sun Dong tonight." (To be continued......)
