Mr. Xia listened to the call of the head of the internal audit team, and it turned out that he was just saying hello and briefly reporting the progress, and there was no seriousness beyond Mr. Xia's expectations. She was somewhat relieved. But on the other side, Yang Zijing was taken away, and there was no further news, so she called Director Guo to ask how the situation was, and Director Guo said that he was already on his way back, because JC couldn't help for the time being, and people had been locked up, and they couldn't see each other if they wanted to, and it didn't work to wait outside. Mr. Xia stood up and walked left and right, suddenly thinking about how serious Yang Zijing's problem would be, and suddenly thinking about who would be in charge of the work here temporarily. After a while, Director Guo arrived, and Mr. Xia hurriedly asked, "Liu Dongdong is not in good health, right?" ”

"No, maybe it's just a little bit of skin, JC has already recorded a confession, and she's going home!"

"So what do we do next?" Xia always asks Director Guo and asks himself.

"It's easy to do, send a direct notice to all the district managers, ask to come to the meeting on time, and if you are late, you will be dismissed. I really don't believe that everyone will stand on Liu Dongdong's side! ”

"I thought so too. Don't talk about resignation yet. Maybe Liu Dongdong thought about resigning, and the people below didn't receive any notice to come here for a meeting. In this case, I will ask the administrative assistant here to notify you directly, and you will go and report the situation to Director Fang. Listen to him too. ”

As the work was scheduled, the administrative assistant sent the notice of the meeting, and all the staff were in place by the evening. This gave Mr. Xia confidence again. After consultations from all sides, a person in charge was temporarily appointed to act as Liu Dongdong's agent. As for when Liu Dongdong will leave the company in the next step, the human resources department will follow up.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Mr. Xia and Director Guo also had an in-depth understanding of the basic situation of the middle level here, and after talking, most of them are still loyal to the company, but there are only two managers who don't seem to care. One is the restaurant manager in the provincial capital, and the other is the manager who just filled the vacancy after his disappearance. Mr. Xia knew that it was estimated that it would be difficult for these two people to work here for a long time. At the same time, she also learned about the problems of the largest dealer in the provincial capital. Some people even hinted that this dealer had a relationship with Mr. Fan. Originally, Mr. Xia wanted to arrange to go over to see the situation of this dealer, but it had been delayed here for more than a day, and if it continued like this, the following schedule would be all changed, and there might be too many people and too many hotels booked, so the next night, they still flew to South China according to the scheduled plan.

On the plane, Mr. Xia sat between Yang Zijing and Director Guo, and Mr. Xia asked, "Ba."

ACK, are the police really okay there? ”

Yang Zijing smiled, "Do they dare to have something?" ”

Hearing this, Mr. Xia didn't understand very much, so he wanted to ask again, but Director Guo interjected, "What, what mysterious power did you use to make this person obedient?" I'm going to pick you up and see how different their attitudes are? ”

"Let's not talk about this, if you encounter such a thing again in the future, you will greet me, as long as we are reasonable, we are not afraid of these people. This time, I didn't want to use these relationships, but these landlords are too arrogant, I have already admitted my mistakes, and I also promised to be responsible for the medical expenses, but they deceived my life, probably seeing that I couldn't understand the local dialect, so I was rude. I was really anxious, so I asked someone to make a phone call. It's not going to be soon, and I'm coming out! ”

Yang Zijing said very easily, maybe Mr. Xia didn't understand the local situation, it was hard to imagine what level of character Yang Zijing used to intervene in this incident, but Director Guo knew in his heart that Yang Zijing was a native of Fujian, and he had worked in Northeast China and Shanghai for a long time, and with his personal connections, he really couldn't reach Guangdong. If Director Guo guessed correctly, there must be someone above. Director Guo didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't want to think about it, he thought that his family was in the United States, but he didn't expect that there was still such a big force here. No wonder he usually doesn't seem to care about anything, a bit of a swinger. But Director Guo came back and thought, he really has such a big background, why should he work in such a shabby place, he will definitely be like many rich and noble children, and he can make a fortune by pouring some things.

Thinking like this, the plane began to land, and at the exit, Jin Minmei was there to greet him with a smile. The feeling here is completely different from the previous stop, it feels a bit of home. Because it was too late, Manager Jin was just polite and asked if he wanted to go out for some supper, and Mr. Xia replied that it was better to rest earlier, so they went back to their rooms to rest.

Early the next morning, Mr. Xia called Jin Minmei to his room, talked for a long time, and then went out to the restaurant together. Yang Zijing and Director Guo saw that the two women were like sisters, talking and laughing, very friendly and relaxed, and they were in a good mood. After breakfast, I went to the office to take a brief look, and the managers who came to the meeting had a short meeting, which was also a meeting between Mr. Xia and everyone, after the meeting, Mr. Xia met two people according to Jin Minmei's proposal, and also invited Yang Zijing and Director Guo to participate together, at noon, in the name of Mr. Xia, please have a meal with the South China support team.

Seeing that it was so smooth here, Mr. Xia got up again, and occasionally made two jokes about Yang Zijing, talking about his heroic image of beating people, Yang Zijing thought it was funny, and he cooperated with it somewhat, but outsiders didn't know what was going on, and they all smirked. Because everything is very stable here, no matter how it is adjusted, it does not seem to affect the front-line work, so in the afternoon, they visited the market and dealers. It is also the first time that Mr. Xia has officially met dealers since his arrival.

For this reason, the dealer invited Mr. Xia to dinner in the evening, and Mr. Xia was happy to agree. This time, she felt the warmth of customer hospitality. Mr. Xia drank too much this night, and in the end, Manager Jin and Yang Zijing carried her back to the room together. When he left the next day, Mr. Xia said, "Oh, the people here are so enthusiastic, I am really convinced of their efforts to persuade wine!" ”

Yang Zijing said, "Compared with the Northeast here, it is not a grade, if one day you go to the Northeast and eat and drink with customers, you will know how enthusiastic you are!" ”

Mr. Xia didn't believe it, it was already very enthusiastic here, how enthusiastic could it be?

Maybe it's Yang Zijing's mouth that is too evil, they arrived in Shanghai, just got off the plane, they received a call from Purchasing Manager Cai, and they didn't know what they were talking about, put away the phone, and Mr. Xia said, "Director Guo, Ba."

ACK, the two of you stay in Shanghai to continue to work, this is his territory, that Du Qiuping has not been in office for a long time, and it is estimated that there will not be much of a problem, so just exchange the personnel adjustment may involve personnel, I must go to a place now, let's keep in touch! ”

Director Guo and Yang Zijing didn't know what was going on when they heard it, Xia always had to go back to the factory or somewhere, and it was inconvenient to ask, so they said goodbye at the airport. Mr. Xia went to the counter to book an early ticket and boarded the plane heading north.

At the exit of the airport, Manager Cai was already waiting there, and when he saw Mr. Xia coming out, Manager Cai hurriedly went up to help him pull his luggage. "Mr. Xia, is it your first time here?"

"It can't be said to be the first time." Mr. Xia is not good at telling lies, she is indeed not the first time to come here, half a year ago, that is, during the Christmas holiday, she had been here alone, half on business and half for tourism.

"We still have to take the train! It's so far from here! ”

"Let's rent a car, it's so convenient!" Mr. Xia has been here, of course, he knows that there are hundreds of kilometers left, but it may be more convenient to choose a taxi. She knew that Manager Cai and the others were used to taking the train, because the company had a travel standard, and they couldn't use taxis everywhere. Hearing the general manager say that he would rent a car, Manager Cai was stunned and immediately said, "It's so expensive, it is estimated to cost 1,000 yuan back and forth!" ”

Mr. Xia nodded to confirm the rental car, so Manager Cai negotiated a taxi, and they got in the car and went straight to their destination.

After a four-hour rush, the car finally arrived. When he got off the car, the taxi driver asked for an advance payment of 200 yuan, and Manager Cai smiled, "Our suitcases are all in your car, can we still run?" I'm worried you've run away! The driver smiled at Manager Cai, "Okay, I'll wait for you!" ”

Before going in to meet people, Manager Cai briefly introduced the situation to Mr. Xia, Mr. Xia nodded, and then Manager Cai led the way, and Mr. Xia followed, and entered a trading company in a county.

The yard of the company is extremely large, compared with the south, it is simply unimaginable, there are many grain hoards in the yard, there is an old man at the door to watch the door, and when he sees two outsiders who do not know, he came out to stop him, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"Your boss, Manager Yang."

"Yang what?"

"Yang Xiuqin!"

"Ah, yes, let's go in! Go in the door, turn left, and the innermost room. "The old man is very enthusiastic, for fear that you will not find it.

When I got to the innermost room, the door was ajar, Manager Yang was on the phone, Manager Cai didn't care so much, or knocked on the door, Manager Yang turned his head and saw that it was Manager Cai, immediately put down the phone and trotted out, "Manager Cai, why don't you say hello, let's go to Harbin to pick you up!" ”

Before he finished speaking, suddenly Manager Yang realized that there was a foreign woman behind him, Manager Yang didn't understand the situation, and asked, "Lao Cai, what's going on?" Why did you bring an old hairy man? ”

Manager Cai knew that Mr. Xia understood Mandarin, so he quickly explained, "Manager Yang, this is the boss of our company, Mr. Xia!" ”

Manager Yang was stunned, didn't the general manager just leave, why did there be a general manager again? However, Manager Yang has also seen a little bit of the world, so he hurriedly came up to shake hands with Mr. Xia, and also said, "Hara spoon!" ”

Mr. Xia realized that the man thought he was a Russian, and he actually spoke Russian, and quickly said, "Manager Yang, hello!" ”

Manager Yang was stunned again, and immediately said, "Hello, hello!" Then he turned his face and asked Manager Cai, "What does the boss say about us here?" ”

"Yes, I'll say a little!" Mr. Xia replied directly. Then she took out her business card and handed it to Manager Yang, which was the first business card she handed to the customer after she arrived at the general manager! I have used business cards before, but they are not for customers, most of them are ushered in and sent to local officials, and the functional departments in their own systems have met customers in South China because of Jin Minmei, and they have not exchanged business cards. So when Mr. Xia handed over the business card, he felt a little sacred.

Manager Yang took the business card and looked at it for a long time, and asked, "Mr. Xia, what nationality are you?" ”

"Americans, Miami."

"Well, good place, many of us here want to study in the United States! My son is clamoring to study in the United States every day. ”

"How old is your son?" Mr. Xia took the conversation, she was very interested in this smug female manager.

"Thirteen or fourteen years old, graduating this year, admitted to high school!"

"It's early, it will take three years to get into college!" Manager Cai added.

"No, if you have a little money now, you have to send your children out to go to high school, and stay there directly!"

"You also want your son to go to high school in the United States?" Mr. Xia asked.

Manager Yang nodded.

"If I can help, just say it!" Mr. Xia said.

When Manager Yang heard Mr. Xia say this, he stood up again and held Mr. Xia's hand tightly and said, "Thank you so much!" Over the years, I have also known a few foreigners, but they are all old hairy children, and my son is not interested in studying in Russia. If Mr. Xia can help, thank you very much! ”

After the politeness, I sat down to drink tea again. Speaking of tea, Xia always felt that the taste of tea here was completely different from the one she drank in the factory. The tea in the south is clear and mild, but here it looks like a boiled leaf. But it's a little irritating in the mouth.

"Mr. Xia, I don't know who of you is in charge, yesterday there was a Mr. Fan in your company who just came, and he had already handed over this year's procurement contract to him and took it away, saying that he would mail it immediately after going back to sign it!" Manager Yang began to talk about serious things.

When Mr. Xia heard this, he glanced at Cai Jiancheng, and Manager Cai hurriedly explained, "Manager Yang, Mr. Xia is our general manager, and Fan is always the vice president!" However, in the past, Mr. Fan was also the general manager, and the factory was sold to foreigners the year before last, so Mr. Xia was just sent to take over the company. ”

"Oh, I know a little bit about this, but I always thought that Mr. Fan was in charge!" Then, Manager Yang stood up and pulled Cai Jiancheng out, stayed outside for about ten minutes, and then came in, Manager Cai explained to Mr. Xia, "What does Manager Yang mean, what should we do?" Renegotiate the contract, or mainly the contract taken away by Mr. Fan. ”

Mr. Xia thought about it for a while and said, "Tell Manager Yang that since we are here, let's visit their base and granary, and arrange to see the trading market if possible!" ”

Manager Cai went out and came back soon, "Mr. Xia, the sun sets early in this place, forget it today, Manager Yang will arrange for us to go and see it together tomorrow!" ”

When he came out, Manager Yang had already driven the car to the gate, and the engine was still buzzing, "Get in the car!" At this time, Manager Cai told Manager Yang about the taxi, and Manager Yang waved his hand and said, "I know, I have moved your luggage to this car, and the taxi has been sent away!" ”

Manager Cai knew the meaning of Manager Yang's words, but Mr. Xia didn't know, so he panicked, "Trouble, we haven't paid for the taxi yet!" ”

Manager Yang laughed, "They are so shrewd, how can they be willing to leave without paying!" ”

In the evening, Manager Yang had a treat, drove a long way, and arrived at the county seat. Although it is a county town and a small town in the south, it is impossible to compare, but when you enter the restaurant, the luxury there will definitely not be lost to the south. Seeing a foreigner come in, the boss came over to talk, Manager Cai knew that it was from Nanyue when he heard it, and only after asking did he know that it was from Huicheng and opened a chain Cantonese restaurant. Manager Cai knows very well that in the Northeast, it is a face-saving thing to invite guests to Cantonese restaurants.

They entered the box, and it was really exactly the same as Nanyue. As soon as he sat down, a young man came in, looking tall and very energetic, so Manager Yang pulled him over and said, "Call Auntie!" Aunt Xia! ”

The child shyly called Auntie, but he must have been very unhappy in his heart, because Mr. Xia's age really didn't look like an aunt, and it was almost the same as being called a big sister. Then Manager Yang said, "This is my son, and our family lives in the county, just for the convenience of him going to school!" ”

Mr. Xia chatted with the young man for a few words, and asked if he could speak a few words of English, and the young man said, although the pronunciation was a little non-standard, but Mr. Xia felt that it was still much better than she imagined. In the end, when the young man heard that this aunt could help him go to the United States to study, he became excited all of a sudden, and most of the time became his home field, asking countless questions about the United States, and finally even Mr. Xia couldn't answer them.

This night, probably because of the taste of a family banquet, Manager Yang just let his husband and son eat together, and did not invite anyone else to accompany him, Manager Cai knew that this was related to her son's matter, and it was not like this in the past. However, Mr. Xia did not feel the opportunity to persuade him to drink. There are still a lot of dishes, five or six people, on a whole big table, basically one on top of the other, like a pyramid, and many of the dishes on it are almost motionless. Mr. Xia felt that this was too wasteful, and when he was about to break up, Mr. Xia said this to Manager Cai in private.

Early the next morning, Manager Yang came over to have breakfast with Mr. Xia. Mr. Xia is a little unaccustomed, but he is the owner, so he is so enthusiastic, so he recognizes it. In the morning, I went to see the endless black soil, and saw wheat that was about to ripen, or soybeans that had just emerged, and some rice. It's almost the same in the whole world, nothing special, except that the Northeast is a place that doesn't stretch as far as the eye can see, and it looks similar to the western United States, and it looks especially empty. At noon, when eating, Manager Yang said, "Okay, let's save a little today, four dishes and one soup!" Mr. Xia knew that it must have been Manager Cai who conveyed what she said to Manager Yang.

Although it is a small restaurant, there are more than a dozen tables in it, sit down, and soon the dishes will come up, four dishes and one soup. But Mr. Xia still opened his mouth wide in shock. Oh my God, just one dish and one soup is enough for a few of them! Four large plates fill the large table, and it takes a squeeze to put down a pot of soup. This reminded Mr. Xia of Yang Zijing's words, the enthusiasm of the Northeast people is called enthusiasm, and the generosity of the Northeast people is called generosity!

After eating, they went to the grain market. It is said that it is a trading market, but in fact, there is usually no one at all, just a few cards hanging there, and only at the appointed time, everyone will come to trade. However, there is an electronic display on the trading market, which indicates the market guide price. This attracted Mr. Xia's attention!
