Chapter 169 The 169th Day of Not Running Away The First Day of Not Running Away...
When Fatty and Jiang Zihan went home, they chatted and laughed all the way. Not only did the stock price rise, but Fatty was also very interested in the housekeeping company that Jiang Zihan had recently started.
However, when they were almost at their doorstep, the fat man tugged at Jiang Zihan's sleeve and reminded her, "Little Jiang, isn't that your uncle?"
Jiang Zihan looked towards the door.
Who else could it be but Jiang Changwen and his wife standing at the door?
She frowned.
Jiang Changwen and his wife also saw her and hurried over. Jiang Changwen was carrying a bag of gifts. "Zihan, you just got back? Were you going to the securities company?"
Jiang Zihan said impatiently, "What's it to you? Get out of the way, we want to go home."
She was puzzled to see the front door locked; her mother was always home, so why had she locked the door?
Jiang Changwen wasn't about to let her into his house so easily. He put on a smile and said, "Zihan, we're just here to check on you. The stock price has been soaring lately. You must be making a lot of money. I heard you bought a lot of subscription certificates."
Jiang Zihan raised her eyebrows and looked at him: "Uncle, you're so concerned, you wouldn't be thinking of buying back the subscription certificate, would you?"
Jiang Changwen's wife exclaimed excitedly, "We're all relatives! Your family is so rich now, what's wrong with giving us back the subscription certificates?! We even sold them to you at a low price before!"
She spoke with great enthusiasm, her words flowing freely, and she even tried to pull Jiang Zihan away.
The fat man stood directly in front of Jiang Zihan, his bulky body completely blocking her view. "What are you doing? Are you trying to rob me?"
Jiang Changwen was furious. "What are you saying, you fatso? We are her elders. This is a matter within our family."
Jiang Zihan shoved the fat man aside and said with a sneer, "You begged me to sell it back then, and now you want to buy back the subscription certificates? You're dreaming. You think you can have all the good things? Let me tell you straight, don't dream, get out of here, or I'll call the police. If things get out of hand, Uncle and Aunt, guess who'll be the one who loses face?"
Jiang Changwen and his wife are very concerned about their image.
Hearing Jiang Zihan's impolite words, Jiang Changwen's face turned pale and then red.
Before his wife could say anything more, Jiang Changwen gritted his teeth, glared fiercely at Jiang Zihan, and said, "You just wait, I don't believe you're really that lucky. Sooner or later, you'll all fall down!"
Jiang Zihan rolled her eyes at him.
After Jiang Changwen and his wife left, she walked to the door, but before she could even take out her key, the door opened. A look of surprise mixed with understanding flashed across Jiang Zihan's face. "Mom, you're home?"
Jiang's mother said, "That's right. Your uncle and aunt are so shameless. They waited at our door for more than an hour. I even called your company to tell you not to go home so you wouldn't run into them."
As Jiang's mother spoke, she looked at the fat man with a kind expression: "Fatty's here. Have you eaten yet?"
The fat man chuckled and said, "Auntie, I haven't eaten any."
Jiang's mother immediately invited them into the house and cooked a meal for them.
The office building next to Jingyang Community also started construction this month. The building was bought by a Hong Kong tycoon. The design alone involved a team of famous British designers. In addition, the construction workers are all from national construction units, and their skills and quality are exceptional.
Chen Bozheng had inquired about it extensively, and after hearing the news, he was filled with envy.
Those construction workers were not only skilled, but also obedient, unlike ordinary workers who came to Beijing from all over the country to make money. There aren't many people with high moral character in this line of work, and since they were all men, all sorts of trouble would happen every few days when they got together.
If it weren't for the fact that bosses like Chen Bozheng were good at interpersonal relationships, and Wang Jianquan's comrades-in-arms helped mediate, they would have fought countless times already.
To appease the workers and prevent them from causing trouble, Chen Bozheng and his team installed two television sets so that they could watch something while eating.
"Brother Chen, General Manager Xiao from the office building is here today."
Lin Ting ran over and informed Chen Bozheng.
Chen Bo was keeping accounts when he heard this. He was delighted, stood up, closed the ledger, and asked, "Is this General Manager Xiao who came before?"
“That’s right, it was him. I saw him get out of the Mercedes. Those leather shoes and that suit, you can tell he’s not an ordinary person. Only people from Hong Kong dress so flashy,” Lin Ting said confidently.
Hua Lingfeng laughed and said, "Lin Ting, you're doing great! You've even infiltrated the enemy's ranks."
Lin Ting rolled her eyes at Hua Lingfeng without any politeness. "Brother Hua, don't make fun of me. I'm just trying to help sell Jingyun Residential Area."
Hua Lingfeng gave her a thumbs up: "Good, well done. When our Jingyun Community is completed, I'll promote you to sales manager, how about that?"
Lin Ting's eyes widened, her face beaming with joy.
She was just starting to feel happy when she became wary again. "How much commission does the sales manager get for selling houses? It can't just be a salary without any commission, right?"
Hua Lingfeng was drinking water when he heard this and almost spat it out.
He looked at Lin Ting speechlessly: "What are you thinking? Do you think we're the kind of people who are so unethical? We've discussed it before, and we're going to promote three managers. If the people under those managers sell a house, you'll get a commission too. What do you think of this idea?"
Lin Ting wasn't stupid, and she laughed, "Brother Hua, Brother Chen, shouldn't we also mentor our subordinates?"
Chen Bozheng took out a pack of American cigarettes and his business card from the drawer. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "There's no such thing as a free lunch. Lin Ting, if you want to get commissions from your subordinates, you have to put in some effort."
Lin Ting said, "That's true, but I'm afraid that if I teach my apprentice badly, I'll starve myself."
Hua Lingfeng chuckled, crossed his arms, and rested his chin on them. "You're afraid of this? You're such a workaholic. Who in our sales office can match your workaholic spirit?"
Chen Bo ignored their chatter and went straight to the office building.
They're demolishing over there right now. We haven't even gotten close yet, and we're already covered in dust.
Chen Bozheng quickly found the Mercedes-Benz, and next to it was General Manager Xiao Kai, whom he was looking for.
"President Xiao," Chen Bo greeted him as he walked over.
Xiao Kai was discussing a few details with the designers when he heard the greeting. He turned around, recognized Chen Bozheng, and said, "Mr. Chen, what a coincidence?"
He waved his hand at the designers, "Let's decide on these issues first. The company's money isn't spent carelessly."
The designers nodded meekly and withdrew.
Chen Bo handed a cigarette to Xiao Kai, saying, "Mr. Xiao, you're a very busy man. It's really not easy to see you."
Xiao Kai took the cigarette, lit it with his lighter, took a drag, and looked at him with a puzzled expression. "Did President Chen want to see me about something?"
