Chapter 41: Alternative white-collar workers

In this way, my life turned on a day and night mode, running between the company and the bar every day.

I don't know who said that being busy makes people fulfilling, I want to say that this is, when you are so busy that you don't even have time to eat breakfast in order to sleep a little longer, you can't think of not being full.

It's just that I don't feel the slightest pleasure in this kind of fulfillment, but rather I feel deeply tired.

But thinking about my tumbling life and bleak future, I still told myself to persevere until I paid off the debt I owed to Mu Xichun.

I roughly estimated that my salary in the bar was minus living expenses, and the rest plus Mu Xichun's monthly deduction of my salary, I would be able to pay off the money I owed to her in about half a year.

In other words, I just want to survive half a year, and then I can let the birds fly high, and I can hell with any Hongji, what Mu Zong, and what bullshit assistants.

So I told myself that now I have to be patient, and I have to pretend to be a grandson for a while.

In order not to affect the work on both sides, I pushed out a motorcycle that I used to use in the east from the warehouse to repair it as a means of transportation.

This car was bought in the early years of Xiangdong when motorcycles were not banned in the urban area, and then I bought the car and lost it in the warehouse, but I didn't expect it to be fulfilled now.

With this transportation tool, it is really a lot more convenient, you don't have to get up in the morning to squeeze the bus, and you don't have to worry about traffic jams, but you have to beware of the traffic police, and there is a high probability that you will be confiscated if you are caught.

Fortunately, the motorcycle is smart and convenient, and it can turn around at any time, interspersed in the gaps at will, and I have seen several times that there are traffic police on duty in front of me.

So the city has since had this scene, a man in an urban white-collar formal suit wearing a helmet riding a rumbling motorcycle, his briefcase hanging on the handlebars, driving from the bar street to the CBD district in the heart of the city.

Probably because my behavior went against the usual posture of this most prosperous commercial center, every time I went to the parking lot, it would cause some people to watch and talk.

Fortunately, I am thick-skinned enough to always calmly rumble through the surprised gazes of everyone, without feeling blush at all, and let him go whatever others say, I don't care.

Since I have to juggle both sides of the work, I try to keep a low profile when I work at the company.

Try to avoid unnecessary conflicts with Mu Xichun, so as not to let her know that her assistant actually works part-time in a bar, and if she does, she will definitely think of ways to fix me again.

Therefore, in my work, I also changed the negative attitude of procrastination in the past, and finished the work as early as possible to avoid possible overtime.

Mu Xichun seemed quite surprised by my change, probably thinking that my serious work attitude was pretending.

After I ignored the harsh sarcasm several times, I didn't do anything too much to me, and this gesture of peace and quiet was exactly what I wanted.

During this time, I made a few phone calls to Shi's mother and learned that the flower shop had gradually stabilized, which gave me a lot of peace of mind, at least for the time being.

Since then, my life has entered a two-point and one-line rush, although tired, but after the most difficult first few days, I gradually got used to it.

When I dragged my tired body to the bed in the warehouse after the bar closed in the evening, I occasionally felt tired of such a toiling life, but I looked at this place and thought about my current situation, and encouraged myself in my heart.

Only a few more months, just a few months, can you get rid of this fucked life now, and I can't help but regain my confidence.

What I didn't expect was that the next thing that happened completely disrupted my gradually stable life.

There were only a few customers at the bar at eight o'clock that night, and I sat at the bar a little bored and watched the bartender Xiao Li play magic-like movements, I really didn't understand how he put several different colors of drinks in one glass.

I was about to talk to him when a man came up to me and said, "Are you Manager Wei?" ”

I glanced at the man in his thirties, dressed in a black suit, and wondered what this man was looking for me.

"I just, I don't know what you're looking for me?" I asked directly.

After seeing that I was indeed the person he was looking for, he smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "My name is Li Weinan, I did have something to discuss with Manager Wei, I don't know if Manager Wei is inconvenient?" ”

I stretched out my hand and shook him lightly, muttering a little in my heart, this person is very neat in a suit and looks like he has some identity, but I have searched all my memories and still can't remember what I have to do with this person.

"Of course it's convenient." Reached out and let him into a private room.

In the box, Li Weinan put his bag on the coffee table in front of him and said with a smile: "Manager Wei." He paused and continued without impatience: "Or it's more appropriate to call you Assistant Wei!" ”

I was shocked, thinking that this person seemed to know me quite well, and from this sentence, I could see that he was quite clear about my profession and position.

I felt a little unhappy in my heart, after all, no one likes to be investigated by others without their knowledge, this feeling is like being stripped of their clothes in public.

"It seems that Your Excellency knows me quite well!" I didn't hide the unhappiness in my heart, and I reacted directly in my tone.

"I won't go around in circles, let's be straight, I'm the development manager of Shengda Company, and I want to talk about a cooperation with Assistant Wei this time!" He smiled disappreciatively and said

His identity surprised me a little, Shengda Group is another real estate company in the city, with huge strength and strong funds, and has always been our company's biggest competitor.

What puzzled me was that I didn't know what cooperation the development manager of Shengda Group, named Li Weinan, had asked me to talk about.

In terms of my industry credentials and the resources I have at my disposal, I don't seem to be qualified to talk to him about any cooperation, and from what he knows about me, it's clear that he knows that quite well.

That's where my doubts lie.

Li Weinan seemed to see my doubts, and he was not in a hurry to explain, but took out a cigarette leisurely and politely handed me one, but I refused.

He smiled unmindfully, took out a side head, nodded it, took a deep breath, and then said, "Assistant Wei, don't be surprised, you must know about the bidding meeting for the lakeside park reconstruction plan hosted by the city bureau some time ago!" ”

"Of course, I know, and the municipal department has come to our company to discuss specific plans. Judging from the attitude of the municipal bureau department, I think it is already a sure thing that this project will fall on our company, I don't know what Manager Li has to do with this matter when he came to me this time? I asked.

Li Weinan nodded after listening to me and said, "Yes, we also understand the intention of the city bureau, which is why I came to Assistant Wei today." ”

He paused again, took a puff of his cigarette and continued: "We know what happened to Assistant Wei in your company, I know that Assistant Wei is a talent, but your company has buried your thousand-mile horse, for which I personally regret very much." ”

"Out of love for talents, on behalf of Shengda Group, I sincerely invite Assistant Wei to come to our company for common development, and we have prepared a position of deputy manager for Assistant Wei, as long as Assistant Wei is willing to come, he can take office at any time."

After listening to him, I realized that this was the case.

To put it bluntly, it's digging the foot of the wall. Listening to him praise me really made me a little useful, but as long as I had a little aftertaste, I could hear that his words were actually full of flaws.

I know that I am not a talent, and my work history is not very impressive, and from what he knows about me, it is obvious that he knows this very well, and I really can't afford the three words Maxima.

The second is that he promised me the position of deputy manager, not to mention that I am just a low-level small staff, it is better to use mediocre performance to describe it than to use mixed eating and waiting to die and come over, and there is no reason to break the sky and suddenly be able to fly on the branches and become a phoenix.

Although his words of praise made me a little dizzy, I was still somewhat self-aware.

After a short analysis, I quickly came to the conclusion that if his promise was true, then he would definitely ask me to pay the equivalent quid pro quo, after all, this is the law of this society.

When you think of the lakeside park redevelopment project he just mentioned, I think it's probably related to this.

I glanced at him, and he was smiling and looking at me in a relaxed manner.

At this moment, my heart has been a little messed up by him, and I don't have the heart to talk to him anymore, so I just ask directly.

"I'm really flattered that your company values it so much, but there is an old Chinese saying that no merit is not rewarded, and Manager Li must have heard this sentence."

"I think you must know that I was just a small project planner before, and now I'm just an assistant to the president, and I don't have any valuable resources in my hands. I'm curious what benefits your company wants from me? ”

"Haha!" Li Weinan smiled heartily.

"Assistant Wei is really a bold person, I will say it bluntly, our company really wants to dig Assistant Wei this talent, as long as Assistant Wei brings the design drawings of the lakeside park project, what I promised before will be fulfilled, and the company will have a major reward!"

I suddenly realized, the mystery in my heart suddenly cleared, around for a long time the real purpose is here, sure enough, there is no free lunch in the world, let alone a free deputy manager, what kind of talent, what thousands of miles, everything is just an exchange of interests.

I looked at Li Weinan's smiling face immersed in the smoke and suddenly felt extremely disgusted, it seemed that he had not investigated me thoroughly enough.

Although I am in an awkward and embarrassing situation, it seems that in their eyes, I am like a victim struggling in a quagmire, and as long as I stretch out a rod to me, I have no reason not to climb up.

But they were wrong, and though I was in dire need of a way out of my predicament, I couldn't do anything like theft in exchange for profit.

Although the conditions he proposed were tempting enough, who could guarantee that he would not cross the river and tear down the bridge.
