Lin Yue turned his head and found that it was an old acquaintance Zhan Xiang.

He said that he laughed worse than bitter melon, but he didn't know that his face was not much better than Japanese melon, and he was not tall, so it seemed that anyone could go up and pinch it.

Since seeing Gu Qingyu ten years ago, this guy has been out of control. In order to catch up with the goddess, he bought a house in this community, downstairs of Gu Shihong's house. Later, Gu Qingyu moved to Shanghai International Garden Community, and he followed him to buy a house there. In order to catch up with Gu Qingyu, this guy has not married for 10 years, is a dog licking every day and a warm man every day, but in the end he has not chased the goddess. Lin Yue really doesn't know how to describe such a person.

"What? Was he driven out again?"

"Come out?" Zhan Xiang glanced behind him, and the door was closed tightly: "You said Guo Qiang? How could it be possible? My landlord, he is a tenant, how could he have the courage to drive me away?"

According to the settings in the TV series, after following Gu Qingyu and moved out of Wanziyuan Community, Zhan Xiang rented the house here to Guo Qiang and his wife, an outsider. The couple opened a fast food restaurant nearby, but the benefits were not good and they kept arrears of rent. Zhan Xiang came to ask for it many times but failed, and later he was even injured by Guo Qiang for rent.

It is really sad to be a rent collector to do this.

"Is that so? Then I'll ask you, how many times have you come to urge your rent?"

"There is one..." He calculated for a long time: "Forgot."

Lin Yue said: "Guo Qiang owes you almost a year of rent, right?"

Zhan Xiang said: "It's not that he won't give it to me. The fast food restaurant business is not good. Besides, his wife just gave birth to a third child, and it's normal for her to be tight. I, a landlord, don't we have to understand other people's difficulties, right?"

If you can't collect the rent, you have to speak for the other party. I really don't know if he should be soft-hearted or be willing to be honest.

"Zhan Xiang, you should treat me to a drink."

"Why?"

"Because we two are to some extent compassionate with each other. You, your own house, the tenant is the one who takes the initiative, and I, marry a wife and lead the wolf into the house."

"Turn the wolf into the house? Are you talking about... Feng Xiaoqin?" Zhan Xiang was shocked.

"That's right, you didn't want her back then, so you turned around and introduced her to me. Did the weasel have no good intentions to wish the chicken a happy New Year?"

"How is that possible? I introduced her to you because I only have your sister in my heart. I saw that Feng Xiaoqin is very virtuous."

There was a reason Zhan Xiang didn't say that at that time, Feng Xiaoqin was very interested in him. She asked about his well-being in the name of a friend, cooked and cooked, and was very attentive. He was quite fucked. When Gu Qingyu told him that his brother had not been on a blind date, he changed his mind and pushed Feng Xiaoqin to Gu Lei. On the one hand, he could get rid of trouble, and on the other hand, he could please the goddess, kill two birds with one stone. It was simply too good.

"When you rented the house to Guo Qiang, did you think that the couple was simple and kind? You were relieved and bold to rent the house to them?"

"That's right."

"Then Feng Xiaoqin is the same."

"No..." Zhan Xiang still couldn't accept that he compared Feng Xiaoqin to a wolf: "Did you make a lot of noise last night? The neighbors downstairs were all awakened by you. Listen to your advice, you are also 37 years old, so be at ease."

"You know this too? It's very well-informed."

"That's certain."

Zhan Xiang was very proud. In order to pursue Gu Qingyu, he has bought many residents in this building over the years. There was a disturbance in the Gu family, and he was the first to know about it.

"Since you are so good at inquiring about other people's family affairs, do you know about Feng Xiaoqin's family affairs?"

"Feng Xiaoqin? She? What family affairs do she have? Isn't her family affairs yours?"

Lin Yue smiled. Xianyun Pavilion was jointly opened by Zhan Xiang and Shi Zhiwei. If he was really a sheep-like character, he would probably be eaten without any slag. In the TV series, Feng Xiaoqin instigated Zhan Xiang to open a nursing home. This guy was not lustful and perfunctory. He secretly asked someone to do market research and got a feasible and profitable answer, and then he agreed to invest money in it.

Thinking about it, even though he could make money by buying a house with his eyes closed in those years, he bought one after another, and he would pay the down payment with his relatives and friends, and he would have to buy a house with a lot of mortgages on his back. Can he say that he has no business acumen and is completely gambling?

As a sister, Gu Qingyu saw that Feng Xiaoqin was not a good man and knew how to help her brother check her background. What about Zhan Xiang? When Shi Zhiwei introduced Feng Xiaoqin to him, he didn't say that he would investigate this woman? This matter is not difficult for a black and white master, right? In the TV series, Gu Qingyu asked him to help investigate Shi Yuan's affairs.

Shi Zhiwei, who was as smart as a monkey, knew that Feng Xiaoqin was not suitable for marrying her home, so he introduced her to Zhan Xiang, and Zhan Xiang couldn't stand her, so he turned his head and introduced her to Gu Lei. Friends cheated on her, so he was very good.

"Is there any news about Shi Yuan that Sister asked you to investigate?"

"Hey, how did you know about this?"

"I'll ask you if there is any news."

Zhan Xiang hesitated for a moment: "No, it's been so easy to check for things for so many years?"

"You are lying!"

Lin Yue smiled coldly and walked downstairs quickly.

Zhan Xiang stood there in a daze.

He was indeed lying. He found out that Shi Yuan, but he didn't want to tell Gu Lei, because he told his younger brother that his sister was not far from knowing. In order to buy a house, Gu Qingyu had to fake marriage with someone he didn't know. He could tolerate this matter, and it would be unacceptable to renew his relationship with Qingmei.

...

After leaving Wanziyuan Community, Lin Yue did not go to the bank to confirm that the 1 million yuan was not received, but went to the entry management hall to apply for a passport, because another purpose of accepting Xinju mission was to open a map abroad so that he could travel around the world to rest and help his great cause of black eating.

The passport processing period takes 7 to 15 days. He left after submitting the application. Seeing that it was still early, it was very close to Lujiazui. He stood on the street and looked around for a while. He walked into a Starbucks not far away and asked the waiter for a cup of American style.

Fifteen minutes later, a woman walked in from outside. She was tall and had a good sense of clothing. Her facial features were very three-dimensional. She was a good seedling for being a model.

Her name is Sun Qi, Gu Lei's cousin Gu Xin's girlfriend.

Oh no, it should be my ex-girlfriend, because Gu Xin has just climbed to the daughter of the director of the district land planning bureau.

Lin Yue raised his hand and signaled her to come here to sit.

"You asked me to come here?"

Sun Qi pulled the chair back and sat down opposite him.

Lin Yue nodded: "What to drink?"

"No need, just say something." She could tell, she was a little impatient.

The female elite in the investment bank and the ordinary man who always fails to complete the tasks assigned by the boss a month have a huge social status. If he hadn't said that he was Gu Xin's cousin and was looking for her for Gu Xin's affairs, she wouldn't have wasted time going downstairs to meet her.

"Yes, investment banking elites, their names sound good. In fact, what they do is no different from ordinary sales. The main reason is that they are targeted is different from the customer groups. Your goal is either a bank, an institution, or a boss who has millions or tens of millions of spare money in his hands to make a fortune in investment and financial management. The best skill of sales is to look at people and make money. Investment banks like you who do not have enough connections and reputation are small and transparent. The first skill you need to master is to learn to screen customers. Wearing big vests and flip-flops, picking your nose and picking your earwax and spitting everywhere is not lacking, but the proportion is too low.

If you want to distinguish it, it is a waste of time and energy. Therefore, the best way is to ignore this group of high investment and low returns, and specialize in developing high-net-worth individuals who enter and exit luxury cars and are luxury goods. Most people call your behavior low, but what is the meaning? This practice is the industry experience summarized by many seniors and the working method of most sales personnel. Occasionally, one or two special cases of being slapped in the face will not affect the overall situation. However, you can play like this at work. If you bring your work experience to your daily life, you will suffer a big loss sooner or later."

This is what Sun Qi said... He couldn't tell whether he was scolding him or giving kind advice, but it was quite awkward.

"This is working time, I still have work to do."

Lin Yue smiled unanimously, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, leaned back, looked at the interior decoration of the cafe, and stared at the scented bottom filter brewer for a while, but he said slowly: "Do you know what the biggest difference between a chain coffee shop and an independent cafe?"

Sun Qi was asked by this question: "Where is the choice of coffee beans? Or how to make them?"

Regarding this question, the picture that flashed through her mind was the skillful cooking operation of Starbucks staff picking up coffee from the brewing machine and the owner of the independent cafe, as well as various eye-catching hand-making tools.

Lin Yue scraped the outer wall of the coffee cup with his fingertips: "Wrong, the biggest difference is the degree of roasting. In fact, when the coffee is in the state of raw beans, its flavor has been determined. Then, as the degree of roasting deepens, fruit floral fragrance, nuts, chocolate, and bitter taste gradually appear. Starbucks and other large chain coffee shops officially claimed to use moderately roasted coffee beans, but the actual situation is close to deep roasted coffee beans. The purpose is to highlight the mellow feeling and make ordinary people feel that I am indeed drinking coffee. However, because the barista level in each store is different, if the production process is slightly inappropriate, there will be a heavy sense of bitterness, such as this cup. Independent coffee shops generally use shallow roasted coffee beans, and work hard on the sweet and sourness, cleanliness and layering of the coffee. The extraction and grinding process is just to release the difference in taste to a greater extent, so successful independent coffee shops have their own specialty items."

Sun Qi was surprised that the person opposite who called himself Gu Xin's cousin was not like a person who was very particular about food, clothing, housing and transportation, but why did he know so much?

“Are you a practitioner in the coffee industry?”

"No." Lin Yue said: "I just want to tell you that a successful salesman not only needs to be vicious, but also knowledge is indispensable. The target is the rich, but you don't even know what the rich's hobbies are. Even if you know, you know very little about the tricks. Then with the same opportunity, as a rich man, why don't I give it to someone who can talk to me and brag and communicate with you?"

"..." Sun Qi looked at him without any contempt. At least in terms of experience, she admitted that the man opposite was better than her: "What is the purpose of telling me this?"

"From the recognition to the interaction of strangers, the stepping stone is my value to you, isn't it?"

Indeed, compared to the first glance, she was listening to him very seriously now.

Lin Yue said: "Okay, since you have attached enough importance to me, then let's get to the point now. Are your relationship with Gu Xin... okay?"

"We're so good." She replied firmly.

Lin Yue said: "But based on the information I have, my cousin is dating a girl in their unit."

"What?" Sun Qi was shocked: "Impossible."

She is qualified and confident to say such things, because she and Gu Xin were college classmates and had been in a relationship for a whole decade. How could her boyfriend fall in love with someone else without saying a word?

"How is it impossible?" Lin Yue said: "You can ask him for verification later and ask him if the girl's name is Ge Yue. My father is the deputy director of the district land planning bureau and has several houses in the city."

He said it with a nose and eyes. Sun Qi believed it 70% of it, and he felt a little restless and couldn't sit still.

This is normal, she is really afraid of losing Gu Xin.

"I know you want to leave immediately and go and verify this with Gu Xin, but listen to me finish it first." Lin Yue clicked on the desktop and signaled her to stay calm: "Do you know where you lost? That's right, you have no money, no status, you can't help him in your career, and you can't give him what he wants in life."

Gu Xin and Gu Shihai, Lin Yue shook his head when he thought of the father and son.

A father is kind to the son... Oh no, it should be said that a father is like his son.

"I heard that you worked a lot in Aimon back then, but you haven't made a name for yourself in so many years. In the past two years, financial supervision has become increasingly strict. Aimon's benefits are very bad. Last year, I was beaten by Murray Gale Quinn, where my sister is. Your boss is very anxious. Is this a matter?"

Sun Qi looked surprised: "Your sister?"

"Gu Qingyu."

Of course she knew this name. The famous investment banking elite in Lujiazui was brought out by her immediate boss Cindy, but now she is better than her. When colleagues in her department talk about Gu Qingyu, they will regard the other party as an idol they want to pursue.

"Dear sister?"

"That's right." Lin Yue continued: "I can help Aimeng get out of the predicament, or let you replace Jack Liu or even Cindy."

After hearing this, Sun Qi no longer thought about Gu Xin, because she was surprised. How could this person know Ai Meng's situation so well?

"These... were all told by your sister?"

Lin Yue shook his head and said no.

Sun Qi doesn't think he can solve Ai Meng's problem, but there is a logic here that doesn't make sense: "Okay, even if you can help Ai Meng improve his performance, the financial circle in Shanghai is so big and resources are limited. Ai Meng's performance has improved, and Murray Galquin's performance will inevitably decline. Are you digging a hole for your sister?"

"This is not what you should care about. In short, you should deal with Gu Xin's business first. If you think it through one day, call me." Lin Yue stood up and walked outside. When passing by her, he clicked on the desktop: "Anyway, there will be no loss if you try it. What if it is done, right?"
