Chapter 90: Entrusted with a Heavy Responsibility (2)
Ye Xin immediately felt out of shape, but he didn't deliberately hide it, he only smiled.
"Xiao Li, I really need someone to help me, really."
Ye Xin's voice was a little tired, revealing a little helplessness and frustration.
Is this a sign of my loyalty, or a certificate of nomination? Li Ji thought secretly. I help you, who will help me?
He was stunned and didn't answer.
Ye Xin was obviously a little disappointed. However, the unhappiness in his eyes flashed.
Ye Xin waited, and seeing that Li Ji didn't mean to speak, he snorted lightly in his nose and continued: "You are young and capable, and you should play a more important role to ......."
Ye Xin stopped and looked at Li Ji.
Li Ji felt crawling all over his body with lice, itchy and numb, and suddenly became uncomfortable.
"Governor Ye, I'm ......"
He muttered, then shut up again.
This time, Ye Xin didn't care, he frowned, pondered, and said slowly: "I'm thinking about readjusting your work......"
"Realign my work?"
"Yes," Ye Xin nodded, his eyes were like torches, "You go back to the city bank office first, temporarily serve as the special assistant to the president, and after the credit approval center is established in the next step, you go over there to ......."
Li Ji only felt that his face was warm and his heart was beating, and he couldn't help but let out an "ah", and his throat rolled a few times.
"This is a temporary arrangement," Ye Xin continued, "Before I leave Windy City, try to settle your position as assistant to the president.....
Li Ji's heart moved slightly, but he didn't feel the excitement he imagined at all.
Ye Xin's painting is too big and a little far. For a hungry man, if you promise him a big meal in the future, it is better to give him a steamed bun now.
The assistant to the president of the city branch is a senior executive, and it must not only be approved by the provincial bank, but also approved by the China Banking Regulatory Bureau.
Li Ji's reaction was obviously unexpected by Ye Xin.
Ye Xin seemed to have guessed Li Ji's thoughts, thought about it, and said, "There are some things that have to be done step by step, and I can't be in a hurry." I promise, before you go, to solve it. Now I will wronged you to be my special assistant, and I will count this if I say it. ”
Li Ji was silent.
"Assistant to the President" and "Special Assistant to the President", the difference between the two words, heaven and earth.
The assistant to the president is a senior manager of the bank, who has the authority and is justifiable; And the special assistant to the president is nothing more than a title, famous and unshared, very empty.
To put it bluntly, the special assistant to the president is simply a follower and a staff member of Ye Xin, and his role is similar to that of the master in the yamen in ancient times.
"It just so happens that there is a vacant room next door to the secretary's room, and I asked someone to add a set of tables and chairs for you, which is very convenient."
Ye Xin said with great interest, as if he had regarded Li Ji as a confidant.
To be honest, if it had been before, Li Ji would definitely be overjoyed and grateful. But now, his mind has changed.
Although he didn't know the reason behind it, he vaguely sensed something different.
"You come here to help me share part of the work, handle some official business, and focus on deposits and loans......"
Ye Xin continued, having returned to his usual demeanor, and his face was soothed and calm.
"Also, on the side of the Marriott Group, you will focus on tackling key problems and ask them to transfer the basic accounts to our CCB as soon as possible; What is needed, you just say, I support ...... unconditionally"
Li Ji's heart sank little by little.
The workplace is the same as officialdom, and the bottom layer is the exchange of interests.
It seems that none of this was given away for nothing. Even if it's a blank check, you have to be asked to exchange something and pay the consideration.
From an ordinary employee to a deputy in the municipal bank, Li Ji has never begged anyone or given gifts.
No matter what others think, at least he thinks that he relies on his personal ability and hard work, and his heart is open, and he is not afraid of poking people in the back. This is also the principle of life that his father taught him since he was a child.
At this moment, in the face of the olive branch thrown by Ye Xin and the promise of the official, Li Ji not only was not happy, but felt an inexplicable humiliation.
If that's the case, he might as well go to Han Mei and ask Han Mei's father for help. At the very least, it can be regarded as relying on "one's own ability".
"President Ye, thank you......"
Li Ji spoke.
Ye Xin suddenly felt relaxed, leaned back on the sofa, clasped his hands weakly, and looked at Li Ji with a smile.
He's confident. For this young man, such an arrangement was tempting enough. This is also the highest price that Ye Xin can offer at present.
But Li Ji's words later made Ye Xin's face change instantly, and he couldn't sit comfortably anymore. He straightened up and looked at the young man in front of him in astonishment.
"However, I don't think I'm capable enough to take on such a big responsibility, so it might be more appropriate for you to find someone else......"
Li Ji looked at Ye Xin and said word by word, his expression calm. Ye Xin listened intently, and his eyebrows gradually gathered together.
“...... I'm sorry, Mr. Ye, to disappoint you. ”
After speaking, Li Ji glanced at Ye Xin, turned his face slightly, and stared at the small national flag fluttering slightly on Ye Xin's desk.
Ye Xin's face darkened.
He didn't speak, he snorted in his mouth, reached out and grabbed the cigarette that was thrown on the coffee table, bit it in his mouth, lit it, and took a few puffs slowly.
A faint gray smoke rose softly, rising higher and higher, and gradually disappearing.
Ye Xin's face was cloudy, and he looked at Li Ji's side and seemed to be deep in thought.
The room was surprisingly quiet, save for the quartz clock on the wall, ticking, ticking......
Li Ji felt that he was breathing urgently, as if he was being locked in a small cage.
He couldn't sit down anymore, tried several times, and was about to get up and prepare to leave, but heard Ye Xin laugh heartily: "Haha, Xiao Li, you don't have to rush to answer me about this matter first, go back and think about it, I can wait." ”
Li Ji was stunned and stared at Ye Xin with a confused expression.
"Xiao Li, I have always been unsuspicious of employing people," Ye Xin stood up and patted Li Ji on the shoulder, "I believe that I will not look at the wrong person." You say, don't you? ”
Li Ji's body straightened all of a sudden, and he hit a spirit, and almost blurted out: "Governor Ye, I am willing."
Li Ji finally opened his mouth, swallowed a few times, and smiled: "President Ye, then you let me think about it again......"
"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, you think slowly." Ye Xin nodded, "My door is always open for you." ”
"Then, then I'll go back first......"
Li Ji said carefully.
"Hmm." Ye Xin nodded, waved his hand gently, as if unloading a heavy burden, "Go back." ”
Li Ji walked to the door, raised his hand and was about to close the door, but heard Ye Xin say with a smile behind him: "Go to the provincial bank for training, behave well, don't lose the face of our Fengcheng branch." ”
Li Ji paused abruptly and subconsciously said "oh". He glanced at the face behind the smoke again, closed the door softly, and hurried downstairs without looking back.
The night is boundless, and the night breeze is cold.
Li Ji stood in the shade of the thick black trees on the side of the street, his expression solemn.
After pondering for a long time, he finally took out his mobile phone and dialed Han Mei's number.
