On the first Monday of the new year, the day before Christmas for Russians, the Time Library, which is still on holiday, also welcomed a new visitor - Mr. Mesut's son and a team of five people who came with him.
business negotiation team.
This middle-aged man who calls himself Lothar Zeger looks to be in his fifties or sixties. His skinny figure and serious expression bear a vague resemblance to his grandfather, Captain Mesut.
After an introduction from Diane who came with him, one of Lothar's staff also opened a large wooden box that he had brought with him and lifted out an exceptionally finely crafted sleigh.
"Mr. Victor"
Although the expression on Lothar's face was slightly serious, his tone was exceptionally warm and polite, "This is a sleigh I made based on the notes and letters left by my grandfather. Its body is made of walnut wood. Only
For the skis, we specially chose jujube wood from China, and we hope you can accept this insignificant gift."
"You're welcome, Mr. Lothar. I like this gift very much."
Wei Ran said with a smile, but there was something strange in his heart. Although he couldn't tell the difference between wood and wood, he could tell at a glance that the color of the wood used in the sleigh in front of him was the same as that of the sleigh in the metal book.
Completely consistent.
So does that metal book have the ability to predict the future? This is too scary?
Suppressing the doubts in their hearts, the two parties sat on both sides of the long table prepared in advance after being polite. Lola, who specially changed into a professional outfit, also brought the temporary waiter Lu Xinda to the people on both sides of the long table.
Handmade coffee was delivered.
There is no doubt that the other party's visit is for the business cooperation that Diane had mentioned before. Because of this, Weiran also invited Ji Ma in advance to participate in this business negotiation.
But it's obvious that just like Wei Ran, Ji Ma also blamed all this matter on Inta's queen. He didn't even bother to listen, and acted like a hands-off shopkeeper who was even more professional than Wei Ran.
Since they couldn't get in the conversation or help, the two brothers simply took the sled outside and put it on the dog Beria. Like two mismatched children, they shouted at the dog and pulled them, enjoying it endlessly.
The snow in the yard that had not yet been cleared was spinning in circles.
This inevitably attracted the attention of Lothar and others in the library, but at the same time, it also made them more aware that the only one who is truly reliable among these young people is the beautiful mixed-race girl sitting across the long table.
.
During the subsequent negotiation process, these "old guys", whose average age was over 40 years old, also experienced the horror of the young girl and the twins opposite.
"Victor, who do you think will win?"
In the office on the second floor of the library, Ji Ma, who was hiding behind the one-way glass, lit a cigarette and asked rather gloatingly.
"No one loses"
Wei Ran, who was sitting on the boss chair belonging to Suisui and resting his legs on the desk, glanced at the negotiation scene downstairs and said with determination, "What your Queen Inta has always pursued is a win-win situation.
So both of them will definitely not lose. Of course, that Lothar must be very uncomfortable now."
"Little Lola has given him more coffee for the fourth time," Jima said with some gloating.
"Don't pay attention to them, we can't help anyway."
Wei Ran asked while fiddling with his phone, "Where's Maya? Why didn't she come with you today?"
"She went home two days ago." Ji Ma spread her hands. "Although she really wants to stay with me, she has to celebrate the holidays. Besides,"
"No need." Wei Ran waved his hand, "I only believe the second half of what you just said."
"The first half of the sentence is also true!" the tough-talking Jima emphasized with white teeth.
While Ji Ma and Ji Ma were having fun together, Wei Ran focused on the news page that was constantly refreshing on the phone screen.
Due to the time difference, in less than an hour it will be exactly 6pm Beijing time.
At this time, in a KFC store that offered free meals in downtown Dongjing, a beautiful girl from France walked into the bathroom stall with her bag after carefully finishing the hamburger that tasted pretty good.
After locking the compartment door and checking carefully, the girl took out a pair of rubber gloves from her pocket and put them on. Then she opened her small bag and took out a mobile phone with no card inserted and connected it to the free phone provided in the store.
f.
After wiping the phone carefully, she took out the two sanitary napkins and stuck them on the front and back of the phone. She also took out a small bottle of diluted tomato juice from the bag and poured it on it before throwing it into the trash can.
inside.
After taking off her gloves and checking the time, the girl pressed the flush button and waited for a moment before pushing the door open and leaving the bathroom. After washing her hands carefully, she applied lip gloss before leaving the fast food restaurant with a smile on her face.
shop.
At exactly six o'clock in the afternoon, Beijing time, the phone lying in the stain automatically logged into the social platform account used by Gunner Shrike and several new accounts on other platforms, and posted a video of about ten minutes on each.
And after @ some well-known bloggers in various fields in the United States, I immediately started the process of restoring factory settings.
Less than five minutes later, Wei Ran, who was nestled in his office on the second floor of Kazan Time Library, finally saw this video on the news.
In this video, which has no editing at all except for silence, the gunman Shrike, who is still wearing a black suit and a motorcycle helmet, silently uses a flashlight to verify the authenticity of the roll of film in his hand.
"Victor, Her Majesty the Queen is waving to us!" Ji Ma, who had been staring downstairs, hurriedly reminded Wei Ran without waiting for Wei Ran to finish watching the video on his phone.
"Let's go!"
Wei Ran stood up while turning off the screen, and walked out of the office and said, "Let's go to dinner. I booked two big meals at the Chinese restaurant I usually eat at."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I deliberately didn't eat in the morning!" Ji Ma stood up immediately and followed Wei Ran out of the office.
No matter how much trouble the latest video will cause on the Internet, which is like a lawless place, at this noon in Kazan, the brothers Weiran and Dima, plus Gleva as their companion, enthusiastically accompanied Lothar who came to the door.
The group had a sumptuous Chinese meal, which indirectly provided what they considered to be extremely important help for the negotiations that continued in the afternoon - these three bastards succeeded with a bottle of Chinese liquor, a bottle of vodka and two bottles of cognac.
Drunk all the guests including Lothar and Diane.
There is no doubt that the negotiation originally scheduled for the afternoon was postponed to the next day due to drunkenness. Suisui also had time to ask the Katenka sisters to help collect more negotiation information.
Of course, as a price, she had to take care of Wei Ran, who was almost drunk, with the help of the little girls Lu Xinda and Lola.
When a certain historian was woken up, fine snowflakes were already flying outside the window, and the porch lights in the yard had already been lit.
He turned his head and looked drowsily at the source of the noise that woke him up. In addition to Beria, the dog sleeping with his legs raised in the air and snoring loudly under the bed, there was also the buzzing mobile phone on the bedside table.
I picked up my phone and looked at it. It was already around six o'clock in the afternoon, but the person who made the voice call turned out to be my friend Chen Guangling, who was both a teacher and a friend.
Before he could get through, the other party hung up the call request.
After rubbing his face and unlocking the screen, Wei Ran noticed that the other party had already sent more than a dozen WeChat call requests in half an hour. In addition to Chen Guangling, there were also WeChat call requests.
His son Chen Luoxiang.
Seeing this, Wei Ran burped and quickly called over.
"Oh my God, I finally got through." Just after Wei Ran dialed the number, the ringtone rang, and the person on the other end immediately connected and sighed.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Chen," Wei Ran said apologetically, "I drank some wine at noon and just woke up."
"it's okay no problem"
Chen Guangling on the other end of the phone said apologetically, "Um, are you in Russia or at home now?"
"What's wrong with Teacher Chen in Russia?" Wei Ran asked as he staggered out of bed and walked to the bathroom.
"There is indeed something going on"
Chen Guangling paused and asked rather embarrassedly, "Wei Ran, we are going to Russia, do you think you have time to pick us up?"
"Are you coming to Russia?" Wei Ran suddenly sobered up.
"Yes." Chen Guangling paused and said, "And I'm going to Kazan. He has something to do with you."
"Welcome at any time!" Wei Ran asked immediately, "When will you come over?"
"There will be a flight tomorrow morning, I don't know." Chen Guangling added anxiously, "It will take off in seven or eight hours."
It wasn't until this moment that Wei Ran, who had drunk too much, came back to his senses. It was probably already midnight in the country. If the other party didn't really have something important to do with him, he probably wouldn't be in such a hurry.
Thinking of this, Wei Ran immediately said, "Convenient! Please send your flight information and I will definitely pick you up when we land."
After making a promise that was enough to reassure the other party, Wei Ran asked, "Did Teacher Chen encounter any difficulties?"
"Hi!"
Chen Guangling on the other end of the phone sighed, "We have indeed encountered a difficulty. I can't explain it in one or two sentences. Wei Ran, do you think this will work? When we get there, I will explain it to you in detail."
"Okay! Let's wait until we get there."
Wei Ran wisely changed the subject, "Will Luo Xiang and Mistress come by then? I'll prepare in advance."
"Come on, let's go together as a family. Isn't it convenient?" Chen Guangling on the other end of the phone asked rather awkwardly.
"Convenient, of course it's convenient!" Wei Ran quickly replied, "If you can't get through to me next time, just call Suisui, her."
"I called," Chen Guangling said with a wry smile, "No one answered Suisui's phone."
Hearing this, Wei Ran grinned, "I'll ask her what's going on later. You, Master Niang, and Luo Xiang can come over without worries. I will definitely pick you up then."
"Hey! It's done!" Chen Guangling was obviously relieved.
After briefly chatting about home affairs and hanging up the phone, Wei Ran washed his face, staggered out of the room with his dog Beria, and successfully found Zheng Xiang who was sleeping in another bedroom next door.
Sui Sui.
Gently closing the door for this dishonest man who had only drank a small glass of white wine at noon, Wei Ran went downstairs and found that only Cinda Lu and the witch Samantha were busy in the kitchen.
"Where are sisters Lola and Katenka?" Wei Ran asked as he sat slumped on the sofa.
"They went to pick up the plane."
Lu Xinda served a plate of sliced tropical fruits with great discernment, and then helped to make a pot of hawthorn leaf tea that Wei Ran often drank. At the same time, she did not forget to explain in detail, "I heard from Sister Anfiya
Said, it’s Sister Sui Xin who’s back.”
"When did you set off?" Wei Ran asked as he poked a piece of mango pulp with a toothpick.
Lu Xinda turned her head and glanced at the retro clock not far away, then turned around and replied, "We set out half an hour ago. It seems that Sister Olga and Sister Olena are also coming."
"This house is getting more and more lively"
The top-heavy Wei Ran muttered something vaguely, and then leaned on the sofa and snored, but he didn't even notice the little girl Lu Xinda rolling her eyes.
