Chapter 74: Pushing off favors and saving face
"Soldier, what's next for you?"
When dinner was almost over, Wang Hongwei suddenly asked about this.
Chen Bing said without thinking: "I have resigned from the factory job, and I am going to go to the battlefield for a period of time, after all, it is my own business, I have to watch it, and I can learn something by the way, and then I will see if there is any other business that can be done." ”
Hearing him say this, Wang Hongwei nodded with satisfaction.
I am glad that my good brother has not lost himself, and he is still the original diligent and motivated young man.
If someone else suddenly gets such a large amount of money, his mind is probably thinking about how to spend his days drinking and living in style, if that is the case, then Wang Hongwei is doing bad things with good intentions.
"Looking back, the two brothers of the Ye family will definitely look for you again, they are all old rivers and lakes, and there are many ways to make money, if you propose to cooperate with you in business or something, you can consider it, but you can also score clearly before making a decision."
Chen Bing nodded hurriedly, "Okay, if they look for me, I will ask you first before making a decision, don't worry." ”
After chatting for a while, the three of them left the private room and went downstairs.
"Boss, how much does it cost on our side?"
Chen Bing walked to the counter and said as he took out the money from his pocket and prepared to settle the bill.
"Oh, the money for your table, Director Ye's younger brother has already paid it."
"What?"
Chen Bing was stunned for a moment, and quickly turned his head to look at Wang Hongwei.
Wang Hongwei narrowed his eyes slightly and thought for a while.
As the saying goes, the hands of people are short, and the mouth of eating people is soft, this time he and Chen Bing already owe Ye Hongbing a favor, if he is asked to pay for this meal again, then this favor will have to be added further.
Because this kind of trivial matter owes favors, it is obviously not worth it.
Thinking of this, I immediately came to my senses and walked to the counter.
"Boss Luo, how much money did we spend at this table?"
Luo Feng glanced at the bill, "It's one hundred and thirteen in total." ”
"GI, take one hundred and three to Boss Luo."
Chen Bing was stunned for a moment before counting one hundred and thirty yuan and handing it to Luo Feng.
"Deputy Team Leader Wang, who are you?" Luo Feng was a little embarrassed.
Wang Hongwei explained: "Boss Luo, today is my friend's treat, it's not appropriate to let Director Ye pay for me, please return the money the next time you see him." ”
In this way, it can not only push away the favor that Ye Hongbing took the initiative to send, but it is not to lose face to him.
"I see, then I'll go back and help you talk to him." Luo Feng naturally understood the meaning, smiled and stretched out his hand, but only took the hundred-yuan bill.
"Deputy Team Leader Wang, just wipe a zero for you and give a hundred."
Erase zero?
You must know that the fraction of 30 yuan is higher than Wang Hongwei's salary in a day, to be precise, it is higher than the income of most people in a day, how can it be said that it can be wiped out.
Obviously, Luo Feng is also courting him and wants to get closer.
Wang Hongwei thought about it carefully, he would definitely not stay in Jiangyang Town for too long in this life, nor would he have too much intersection with Luo Feng, let alone get too close to him.
"Thank you Boss Luo for your kindness, but thirty yuan is not a small amount of money, and it is not easy for you to do business, so you should have as much as you want!"
Chen Bing reacted immediately, and hurriedly handed over the thirty yuan in his hand.
Luo Feng hesitated for a moment, but still accepted the money, but he didn't have any opinion on Wang Hongwei, he only felt that he might just be too young and didn't understand these people's sophistication, or he just wanted to maintain a good image.
"Boss Luo, then we'll go first."
Wang Hongwei didn't stay, and left Hexian Restaurant with Dang Yuzhu and Chen Bing.
"Hongwei, I'll send you back first, and then go back to the county."
Chen Bing said as he opened the car door.
As a result, without waiting for Wang Hongwei to speak, Dang Yuzhu rejected his kindness first.
"Chen Bing, there is not much way to go back here, so I won't bother you, I will just walk back with Hongwei."
As he spoke, he grabbed Wang Hongwei's arm.
Seeing this, Chen Bing immediately squeezed out a wicked smile, and made an OK gesture and said, "Okay, good, then I won't disturb the world of the two of you." ”
Just as Chen Bing was about to get into the car, Wang Hongwei suddenly proposed again:
"By the way, Chen Bing, you just said that you plan to stay in the battlefield for a while, or just rent a house in our town to live, and save yourself from running back and forth every day."
Chen Bing thought about it, shook his head and said, "Forget it, you know what my mother is like, I go back every day to look at her, it's more reassuring." ”
After the death of his father, Chen Bing's mother Zhang Chun'e had a serious illness due to excessive sadness, and her body became very weak and almost lost her ability to work, which is one of the reasons why Chen Bing went to work in the factory early.
Wang Hongwei remembered this and nodded hurriedly.
"I almost forgot about it, it's more important to be family."
"Then you slow down on the road, say hello to my aunt for me, and go to your house to see her when I have time!"
"Good, good." Chen Bing nodded again and again, "My mother always talks about you, she must be very happy for you to go." ”
After seeing Chen Bing drive away, Wang Hongwei and Dang Yuzhu also embarked on the way home, walking leisurely all the way towards the town.
Compared with the city, although there is no prosperous night scene in the township at night, there is more tranquility and starry sky, and more importantly, there are beloved people by his side, Wang Hongwei's heart is full of happiness.
"Hey, Director Ye."
After seeing them go away, Luo Feng, the owner of the restaurant, immediately called Ye Hongbing.
"What's wrong, Boss Luo?"
"Deputy Team Leader Wang returned the money you paid for the checkout, and I'll give it to you next time."
"What? Got back? Ye Hongbing couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that Wang Hongwei didn't appreciate it.
Luo Feng opened his mouth and explained: "Don't worry, Deputy Team Leader Wang said that today is his friend's treat, and it is not suitable for you to settle the bill, you just need to go back and find another opportunity." ”
I have to say that he is quite competent as a broker.
Hearing this, Ye Hongbing was also relieved.
On the other side, when Chen Bing returned home, it was already half past nine in the evening, but when he entered the door, he saw his mother Zhang Chun'e sitting on the sofa, obviously waiting for him.
"Mom, why haven't you slept yet?"
Zhang Chun'e got up and walked in front of him, "You kid, why are you always at home lately?" ”
It's not a question, it's just a mother's concern for her child.
"I'm ......" Chen Bing hesitated for a moment and explained: "I've done some business recently, and I'm busy. ”
"Doing business?"
Zhang Chun'e was full of doubts, "Aren't you working in a lumber mill, what kind of business are you doing?" ”
"Mom, I have quit my job in the lumber mill, and now I have a stake in a sand farm in Jiangyang Town."
Zhang Chun'e stared at Chen Bing for a while, thinking that he was joking with him.
"Xiaobing, I know that you have always wanted to do business by yourself, but our family's conditions are limited, you better go to work first, marry a daughter-in-law, and then talk about it when you have a chance in the future."
"Mom, I didn't tease you, it's true!"
Seeing Chen Bing's serious look, Zhang Chun'e finally realized that the situation was wrong.
"Little soldier, what the hell is going on?"
Chen Bing didn't hide it, and immediately told him about spending 80,000 yuan to invest in the southern suburbs.
"Eighty thousand?"
Zhang Chun'e's eyes widened suddenly.
"Son, where did you get so much money, shouldn't you ......?"
"Your dad was a good cop when he died, you must not make mistakes!"
