Chapter 34: A New Era
There was suddenly so much extra money on the company's books, and my uncle naturally ran over excitedly to ask Mr. Bao about the situation, "Mr. Bao, what's the matter with the sudden extra money on the books?"
Mr. Bao explained to his uncle with a smile on his face, "The investment was successful! This is what Lin Xiaofan earned on Shenzhen japonica rice futures."
"Then it seems that this Lin Xiaofan is not simple!"
"Don't worry! This Lin Xiaofan and we seem to be friends rather than enemies! And he probably wants to keep a back hand with us."
"Makes sense! It doesn't look like the money is easy to get either."
"That's right! He has a friend who is coming to Shanghai, so please let me take care of the reception for the next few days."
After all, Lin Xiaofan also helped them earn a lot of money, so Uncle naturally agreed without hesitation, "When will it arrive?" I asked the finance department to send a car to pick it up."
"No hurry! You book a room at the Peace Hotel first, and make the other person feel at home no matter what."
"Good! You really can't save the money you need to spend."
The uncle who has always been a thrifty housekeeper was also greatly shocked this time, you must know that the recent action of Shenbao Group is very big, and there is a Shenbao Plaza under construction in the business district of Xujiahui, and it will be much easier to get the 40 million funds.
So Uncle directly waved his hand to rent the British suite of the Peace Hotel for a month, you must know that Mr. Bao and the Peace Hotel are old acquaintances, naturally it is very easy to let the Peace Hotel give a super low price.
Now "Flowers" has entered a new era, and those people around Mr. Bao have been scattered in the past, so it's time to find new friends and partners.
Uncle saw this point in Mr. Bao, so he chose to stay and help Mr. Bao without hesitation, you must know that Mr. Bao in the transition period is the most dangerous.
……
"Jingle bells."
Mr. Bao, who was asleep, was suddenly woken up by a rapid ringtone, and picked up Big Brother in a daze to see that it was an unfamiliar number, "Hey! I'm Po, who are you?"
Big Brother Dali soon came from an anxious female voice, "Mr. Bao, hello! I'm Lin Xiaofan's friend Wu Jiayi!"
Mr. Bao looked at the time in confusion and found that it was only past nine o'clock, "Huh? Hello! Is there something wrong with calling me so early?"
"Mr. Bao, I'm at your Hongkou Airport in Shanghai right now, can you come and pick me up?"
"Huh? Then you wait for me at the exit for a while."
After hanging up the big brother, Mr. Bao found that it was only more than nine o'clock at this time, and it only took two and a half hours to fly from Shenzhen to Shanghai, which showed that this Wu Jiayi must have gotten up early to catch an early flight.
Then Mr. Bao got up depressed and washed up briefly, and even the beard that had grown overnight was not shaved, and then he went downstairs to the underground garage.
Just when Mr. Bao wanted to drive his own Toyota Crown, he suddenly realized that his car was too recognizable, and in order to avoid some unnecessary trouble, he chose another Mercedes-Benz 140.
And this Mercedes-Benz 140 is the car that Mr. Bao bought for his uncle, but this old man is stubborn and unwilling to ride, so he has been keeping it in the underground garage of the community where Mr. Bao lives.
Soon the Mercedes-Benz car came to the international airport in Hongkou, and then at a glance I saw a little girl waiting anxiously.
Mr. Bao first parked the Mercedes-Benz next to the girl, and then asked the girl through the window uncertainly, "Wu Jiayi?"
"Mr. Bao, you are here, I thought you wouldn't come to pick me up."
"Hehe, Miss Wu, get in the car!" Seeing that Wu Jiayi didn't bring any luggage, Mr. Bao also greeted the other party to get in the car with a smile on his face.
And this Wu Jiayi was also very unceremoniously pulled the car door and sat directly in the co-pilot, and Mr. Bao immediately started the Mercedes-Benz and left Hongkou Airport.
It's just that after the Mercedes Benz left, a few men in suits suddenly appeared at the entrance of the airport, and at first glance they were definitely not characters to mess with.
Mr. Bao naturally noticed Wu Jiayi, who had been nervous, and then he was puzzled when he contacted him before and after
asked, "Miss Wu, are these people looking for you?"
"Yes! Actually, I am a Hong Kong person, because I borrowed a loan shark that I couldn't pay off, so I hid in Shenzhen, but I didn't expect these people to find me, so I had no choice but to hide in Shanghai."
"Is there a lot of money owed? Do you want me to help?"
"No! I'll make good money to pay off my debts, and these loan sharks are insatiable, so avoiding them for the time being may calm them down."
"Okay! You can see that it is done yourself, and I have already arranged the Peace Hotel for you."
"Wow! Peace Hotel! Mr. Bao, you are really too polite."
"Haha, Miss Wu, since you are Lin Xiaofan's friend, you are also my good friend of Bao."
"Mr. Bao, do you have a good relationship with Lin Xiaofan?"
"It's okay! This time, he helped us run a fund."
"I know! Japonica rice futures! And I did it myself."
"Oh? Miss Wu, are you a stock operator?"
"That's right! At that time, when I saw Lin Xiaofan, it was not simple, but I didn't expect him to choose japonica rice futures, which everyone was not optimistic about."
"Lin Xiaofan is in the food industry, so he naturally knows the market of japonica rice well."
"Mr. Bao, I really didn't expect him to know a big man like you, I thought he was bragging to me."
Soon Mercedes-Benz 140 came to the Peace Hotel, and Mr. Bao looked at Wu Jiayi in front of him and said his arrangement, "Haha, Miss Wu, you must be tired from catching a plane today, or you can rest in the Peace Hotel first, and then I will take you to eat and go shopping at noon."
"Yes! I got up early this morning to catch a plane, and I was a little tired."
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Bao handed the room key to the little girl in front of him, "That's good! This is the key to the British Suite 720, and I won't go up with you."
"Mr. Bao, why don't you come and pick me up again in the afternoon, I'll just have some food at the Peace Hotel at noon."
"It's fine." Mr. Bao looked at Wu Jiayi in front of him with a stunned face, feeling that she was not a girl from an ordinary family, and then looked at the hotel waiter on the side and said, "Lucy, this Miss Wu is my good friend, please take her to room 720."
"Okay! Mr. Bao."
After Wu Jiayi entered the elevator with the waiter, Mr. Bao turned around and left the Peace Hotel, and at the same time realized that a new era and story had begun.
Mr. Bao, who returned to the Mercedes-Benz car, directly called Lin Xiaofan from Nanjin, after all, he entertained this Wu Jiayi for the sake of Lin Xiaofan's face, and he had to say hello to this Lin Xiaofan in advance no matter what.
"Hey! Mr. Lin, I'm Bao from Shanghai."
"Mr. Bao, hello! Why did you remember to call me?"
"Mr. Lin, your friend named Wu Jiayi has come to Shanghai, and I have arranged for her to be in the Peace Hotel."
"Thank you, Mr. Bao! This friend of mine has caused some trouble in Shenzhen, and I hope it won't cause you trouble."
"Mr. Lin is talking about usury, right?"
"Huh? Wu Jiayi told you?"
"Yes! When I went to pick her up at Hongkou Airport today, I saw a few suspicious big men at the airport, and I felt that your good friend was not simple!"
"Mr. Bao, help! Let's see if we can get her a job in Shanghai."
"Let's talk about this later! Let her have a good time here in Shanghai first."
"It's fine."
