Chapter 25: Business Wizards
Luke John, an ordinary staff member of the Szeto family's "Daqi Trading Company", has just turned 16 this year, and he has been working hard since he was 10 years old because of his family's poor background.
He's done a lot of work, but the most decent one is his current job.
The fact that Daqi Trading House belongs to the Situ family, the first aristocratic family in the empire, has already made many people want to enter this trading house. Coupled with the large scale of this trading house, it has attracted countless people who want to be a part of it.
In fact, John has always been proud of this, he was born in a commoner family, his family is very poor, unlike many people who enter this business house by connections, he can enter this business house completely by his own efforts, because of this, he has always felt very proud.
However, despite this, John's heart has become more and more lost since he entered the firm, which is not as vibrant and energetic as it seems on the outside, but makes people feel a smell of decay.
The top of the firm is ignorant, nepotistic, and spends all day drinking, while the employees below are cliques and intrigues, and everyone is playing their own little calculations.
No one really thinks about the firm, although everyone is on the same big ship of the firm, but everyone is working in different directions, and the big ship will only get farther away from the final destination.
John struggled and agonized about this, and in the end, he decided that he would do his best to row the ship in the direction of the end of the line, regardless of what the others had. Although his strength alone is very weak, he has always been looking forward to everyone who cares about the development of the business like him.
Two years have passed, from the time he entered the business to the present.
In the past two years, he has made 21 proposals and 12 business plans to the manager of the commercial bank, all of which have been put aside without exception.
However, he can't do nothing, and if he stops, he will only be more confused.
Just half a year ago, John had just met the daughter of a little nobleman by chance, and the two only talked a few times, and they had a good impression of each other, and then as the number of meetings increased, the two gradually fell in love.
If it had been placed in the past, John would not have dared to even think about the daughter of this little nobleman, but because of his current work, he still took this step bravely, and he believed that with his own efforts, sooner or later he could develop in the business house, and at that time, the woman's family would not be too opposed to their marriage.
However, during this time, he gradually became suspicious of his original thoughts, and he even dared not meet his girlfriend because he was afraid of seeing the other party's expectant eyes again, and he could not give any answer.
Eventually, he decided to try again.
On this day, he prepared his 22nd proposal and ascended to the top floor of the comptoir. At the innermost point of this floor is the office of Zack, the manager of the comptoir.
However, when he walked to the door of the office and heard the constant moaning sound coming from the office, John stopped with a red face, this is more than one time he has heard this kind of voice here, John is a little angry in his heart about Zack's behavior, but the gap between him and Zack in status makes him choose to ignore it.
Just as John was hesitating to leave first, he heard the sound of climbing the stairs from the top of the stairs.
He turned his head and looked towards the staircase, where he saw a dark-haired and blue-eyed teenager walking up.
The young man has very bright hair, a slender figure, and a handsome appearance, wearing a royal blue aristocratic dress with brown boots under his feet, making him look very noble, and his star-like eyes open and close, exuding a different light, this kind of light, makes John's heart inexplicably rise a sense of insignificance.
After the boy climbed the stairs, John found that there was a young man behind the boy, the young man looked like he was in his early 20s, although he was not as handsome as the boy, but his appearance was also upper, he was dressed in black, he looked very formal, different from the boy's indifferent temperament, the young man made people feel a little more close.
Noticing that the young man had been consciously following behind the young man, John already had a rough guess about the identities of the two in his heart, and soon, the young man and the young man walked up to John.
The groaning in the office continued, which made John a little embarrassed, but he still took the initiative to speak: "Hello, you are here to negotiate business with our manager, right?"
The person who came was Situ Jin and Xiu, because Daqi Trading House was mainly engaged in the business of nobles, so in John's heart, he had already regarded Situ Jin as a noble child who came to talk about business.
Situ Jin and Xiu were not deaf, and when they first approached the office, they had already heard the intermittent groaning sound coming from the office, but compared to John's unnaturalness, the two of them seemed much more natural, no, it should be said that it was too natural, as if they didn't hear the sound inside.
"Hello. Situ Jin opened his mouth and said, "May I ask if the manager of this firm is inside?"
Situ's polite behavior made John's heart can't help but have a good impression of him, he has seen too many nobles, unreasonable and arrogant, so he almost engraved the words "I am a nobleman" on the door of his head, for fear that others would not know that they are from a noble background.
"He's here. John hurriedly replied, but his eyes flicked to the office door, and he looked a little embarrassed and said, "But I'm afraid you'll have to wait a while." ”
Situ Jin nodded, saw John holding a stack of materials in his hand, and said, "What do you have in your hand?"
"Oh!" John scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "It's a little bit of what I wrote myself." ”
"Oh?" Situ Jin said with some interest, "Do you mind showing it to me?"
Hearing Situ Jin's words, John hesitated, after all, many of the things in it were related to the trading house.
However, thinking that he had written so many proposals before and all of them were thrown aside by Zack, John suddenly had a kind of broken jar mentality, it is better to have one person to read than to write and no one to read, right?
Thinking of this, John handed the proposal in his hand to Situ Jin: "It's just some of my personal ideas, I hope you don't laugh at me after reading it." ”
Situ Jin smiled, this smile made John feel like a spring breeze, and took the proposal handed over by John, Situ Jin joked: "Hearing you say this, I am more interested in it." ”
Situ Jin flipped through the proposal at the door of the office, and he turned the pages very quickly, and it only took him six or seven minutes to finish the proposal, which added up to more than 30 pages.
From beginning to end, there was no wave on his face, but God knows, how shocked his heart was at this moment?!
This proposal is definitely not something that an ordinary person can write, and it is definitely a business wizard who writes it, after reading this proposal, Situ Jin instantly gave a comment in his heart.
