Chapter seventy-ninth no peace of mind

Chapter 79: Not at ease and kindness...

The Six Dynasties of Golden and Powder Land, the Jinling Imperial Prefecture.

Nanjing is an interesting city. Wang Anshi said that since ancient times, the imperial state has been lush and beautiful, and it has become a dream for four hundred years, which is worthy of sorrow. Xin Qiji also wrote that he would give the benefits of the country to the public, and the imperial state of Jinling. I think this year, I still recognize the swallows, Wang Xie, and the romantic ones.

In the eyes of geography scholars throughout the ages, Nanjing has always been regarded as a place where "king spirits are besieged" and is suitable for the "Emperor's Capital". There is Zhongshan Longpan in the east, Shitou Mountain in the west, Shitou Mountain in the south, Qinhuai River in the south, Xuanwu Lake in the north, which forms the form of "Four Feng Shui Beasts" of Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Xuanwu. However, according to legend, in the early Qin Dynasty, Qin Shihuang ordered people to cut off stones and dig the Qinhuai River to drain the royal energy, resulting in the dragon vein breaking and the king energy four times. Since then, all the dynasties that established their capital in Nanjing have ended with a short life, and the Ming Dynasty moved its capital to Beijing in the second generation. In recent years, Nanjing's economy has lagged significantly behind the three cities of Su, Xi and Chang. It is indeed an indisputable fact that Nanjing's economy has lagged behind the three cities of Su, Xi and Chang. Whether in the cultural circle or the business circle, Nanjing lacks people who influence the whole country.

If the Chinese territory is regarded as the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, Nanjing is just the gate of death, which is why most dynasties that have established their capital in Nanjing are short-lived. Nanjing's yin energy is too strong, including the Zhongshan Mausoleum, Yuhuatai, Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, the Memorial Hall of the Massacre victims, and the mass graves distributed in the city, which is a bit more solemn and deadly. The ancients often used the Yangtze River as a natural barrier to block the invasion of the north and the south, but did not consider the taboos of direct water in Feng Shui. The water flowed too fast and could not gather energy, and would take away the luck. After all, hiding wind and gathering water is the perfect result of Feng Shui.

Therefore, Nanjing is a very complex and contradictory city. At least every time Qin Sheng comes to Nanjing, he feels very uncomfortable.

It was already eight o'clock in the evening when the high-speed rail arrived at Nanjing South Station. Xue Qingyan, who was by the window along the way, was always taking a rest. Qin Sheng read the book "Political Gains and Loss in China" with great interest. He didn't know who the predecessor of the book was. There were a lot of notes on it, especially the notes on the current global political forms, which made Qin Sheng quite interesting. For example, the relationships and contradictions between socialism, conservatism, and liberalism were all practical things. This ten yuan was really spent in vain.

"It's finally here, and the most helpless thing every time is to go on a business trip." After the high-speed rail stopped, Xue Qingyan stretched and said lazyly, but the sound was so tempting.

Qin Sheng put the book into his bag and took out Xue Qingyan's suitcase. The two of them lined up to get off the car. He smiled and said, "Sister Xue, you quit your job, find a place to live by the mountains and rivers to support you, and pursue a life that returns to nature."

"I also learned to talk back. I am so hardworking and more accustomed to this kind of life. People are cheap and feel tired when they are busy. They are too idle and prone to pretentiousness." Xue Qingyan shook her head and said.

This is the truth. As long as it is a human, there will be a bad habit of people.

"Do you like reading books?" Not many young people like reading books. First, they are too playful, and second, they don't have time. But the more successful people are, the more they like reading books. This has been the case throughout the ages. Some young people like reading books, and many of them pretend. Xue Qingyan woke up several times in the middle and found that Qin Sheng was reading very seriously and found that there were many notes on it. Obviously, this book is not the first time I read it. For a book, it is considered to be truly understanding the author's meaning. So Xue Qingyan knew that Qin Sheng was reading really, not pretending.

"If you are ugly, you should read more books. Not to mention the ugly things like me," Qin Sheng said with a hint of embarrassment.

Xue Qingyan looked at Qin Sheng's outline. Qin Sheng was not ugly in his eyes, nor could she say she was handsome, but this young man made people feel comfortable to look at, his eyes were very clean, and it was easy to make people feel intimate. So she smiled and said, "Don't be fooled by yourself. Although you are not a young man, you are also pretty. No matter what, reading more is a good habit, so that you can keep enriching yourself and not be eliminated by the times."

The two walked and chatted, and they all the way to the exit. Xue Qingyan said that they had arranged someone to pick them up. After they came out, employees of the Nanjing branch quickly came up and shouted respectfully, "Mr. Xue"

Others also took the suitcase and bag from Qin Sheng, and Xue Qingyan casually said, "Let's go"

Just when they were about to leave, another woman and two men came up and smiled politely at Xue Qingyan, "You are Mr. Xue, Mr. Du asked us to pick you up. He is already waiting for you at the Jinling Hotel to welcome you."

Xue Qingyan's face changed slightly. Only the company knew about her coming to Nanjing. How did Du Jiang know about this? It was obvious that there was an undercover agent inside and revealed her itinerary.

"No need, I want to go back to the hotel to rest first. Let's see you directly at your company tomorrow." Xue Qingyan refused politely.

The woman was obviously in a dilemma. The two men behind her showed anger and said, "Mr. Xue, Mr. Du has been waiting for you for a long time. You should give me this face. Besides, don't make things difficult for us. If Mr. Du can't see you, we will not be able to handle the job at that time."

Several people took turns to fight, and Xue Qingyan was in a dilemma. If she didn't give her face, the other party would definitely not cooperate with her next work, and this would eventually be very troublesome.

Helplessly, Xue Qingyan had to agree, "Since Mr. Du is hard to refuse, then let's go."

Hearing this, the other party finally smiled happily. Xue Qingyan had to instruct the company employees to put their luggage back to the hotel first, and then go to the hotel for dinner.

The company sent two cars, so Xue Qingyan and the others did not take the other party's car. Qin Sheng took the initiative to be the driver and took over a Passat. There was only Xue Qingyan in the car, and the others were in that car.

"Qin Sheng, how do you drink?" Xue Qingyan is most afraid of drinking in such social occasions. After a drink, the matter was not done, and she was still feeling uncomfortable. She would not be in a state of work tomorrow.

Qin Sheng didn't dare to make a promise and said modestly, "It's okay, it should be fine if you have more than one pound of liquor."

"If they persuade them to drink later, I will rely on you to stop the wine. If you can pour them down, it will be even better, so we can get out of here." Xue Qingyan placed her hope on Qin Sheng, but she felt sorry for Qin Sheng. If things go smoothly this time, she will definitely repay Qin Sheng when she looks back.

Qin Sheng smiled faintly and said, "Sister, don't worry, I'm there."

Inadvertently, Qin Sheng's name for Xue Qingyan had changed from Sister Xue to Sister. Xue Qingyan could hear it, but she didn't say anything, just a title.

Jinling Hotel is a time-honored brand in Nanjing and the first five-star hotel in Nanjing. Most of the guests who come from other places will choose this time-honored brand.

After arriving at the Jinling Hotel, the subordinates of Mr. Du took Qin Sheng and the others to the private room of the Chinese restaurant in the Jinling Hotel. In addition to Du Jiang, there was also a deputy general manager of their company. In addition, Xue Qingyan and the general manager of Nanjing company, the three of them were chatting and laughing. After Xue Qingyan pushed the door open and entered, she couldn't help but frown when she saw the general manager of their company. It seemed that this person would not be the one who revealed her coming to Nanjing.

"Oh, Mr. Xue, it's time for you." Du Jiang, who had a strong aura in the world, smiled and walked towards Xue Qingyan slowly and stretched out his hand.

Out of politeness, Xue Qingyan also politely reached out and replied, "Sorry, Mr. Du has been waiting for a long time."

"Where is there, this is the right thing to do. I was thinking of picking you up at the station, but I was delayed for a while. Mr. Xue, don't be surprised." Du Jiang held Xue Qingyan's hand tightly, and rubbed it intentionally or unintentionally, without any intention to let go, looking like an old hooligan.

Qin Sheng's face was calm and he looked at Du Jiang with a peach blossom look on his face. He was either treacherous or deceitful. No wonder the Cheongsam Sister Company's project would have problems. Such people would definitely not do things steadily and would rather take shortcuts and take small paths.

Du Jiang did not let go, which made Xue Qingyan very disgusted. She looked calm and wanted to pull out her hand. Du Jiang quickly let go and smiled with an awkward look on her face, "Come on, Mr. Xue, hurry up and sit down."

The other two men also stood up and greeted Xue Qingyan. They just shook hands with Xue Qingyan, the person in charge of Dujiang Company, and said with interest, "I didn't expect Mr. Li to be here too."

"Mr. Xue, I was going to pick you up, but the company has been too busy recently, so I asked my secretary to go there. After the meeting, Mr. Du kept calling and said he wanted to welcome you. I came here now." The person in charge was also sloppy. He knew that he had come without saying hello, which obviously made Xue Qingyan very uncomfortable, so he quickly explained.

Xue Qingyan smiled and said, "Oh, that's it."

Later, Du Jiang was about to come over, but was stopped by Qin Sheng.

"Hello, Mr. Du, I am Mr. Xue's assistant." Qin Sheng also reached out to greet Mr. Du. Du Jiang reached out with a perfunctory hand. As soon as the two shook hands, Du Jiang was about to pull it out. He took Xue Qingyan seriously, but he didn't take Qin Sheng, a small assistant, seriously. But who knew that Qin Sheng had already tightened his hand at this time. Du Jiang wanted to pull his hand but couldn't pull it out. On the contrary, Qin Sheng secretly used force. Du Jiang's hand was already red with his grip, and no one noticed it.

Du Jiang looked down at the red hand, and then looked up at Qin Sheng, his eyes full of harshness, meaning, boy, what do you mean? Qin Sheng stared at Du Jiang with a smile.

Just as Du Jiang was about to explode and others were about to notice this, Qin Sheng slowly let go of Du Jiang's hand and sat next to Xue Qingyan with a smile, leaving only Du Jiang who was not angry enough to scatter.

This is Qin Sheng's warning and a kind reminder.

Du Jiang cursed a few words in his heart, but did not take it seriously. He slowly sat back to his seat and began to instruct the waiter to serve the food. Then he asked, "Mr. Xue, it's a far away, we're welcome to you, so let's have some drinks?"

"Mr. Du, there is still something important to do tomorrow. I won't drink anymore. We will celebrate again when the work is over. How about it?" Xue Qingyan said with a smile.

Du Jiang naturally refused and said, "Hey, how can this work? One code is one code, you have to have fun in life? I have heard of Mr. Xue Daming for a long time. He said that he was a great beauty. Today's meeting did not disappoint me. If I didn't drink some, how could it be?"

Xue Qingyan had no choice. Anyway, she knew she wanted to drink, so she could only say, "Since Mr. Du said that, then drink some, but order it."

"Don't worry about this," Du Jiang laughed.

So, before the dishes were served, three bottles of Moutai were placed on the table. Du Jiang asked the waiter to quickly distribute the wine. After the wine distributors on the table were full, Du Jiang, an old man like him, started to raise his glasses directly.

Qin Sheng didn't have dinner anyway, so I think Xue Qingyan didn't have it either. He is naturally the easiest to get drunk when drinking on an empty stomach. Obviously, Du Jiang was not kind tonight.
