There are often guests coming to Zhong Yi's manor. These people don't know what they are doing. They enter Zhong Yi's study and refuse to come out. They chatter for a long time before leaving, making them mysterious. For this reason, Ning Xiaobao
I still don't know what Zhong Yi does. Now, it seems that I finally have a chance to know what kind of business Zhong Yi does.
Sitting next to Zhong Yi, Ning Xiaobao imitated Zhong Yi and put his hands on the armchairs on both sides. Because he was too small, his posture looked very strange. Zhong Yi couldn't help but whisper.
He snickered and was glared at by Ning Xiaobao fiercely.
Is Zhong Yi's temper good or bad? In the eyes of outsiders, this guy can be called a murderous devil, but only people close to him know that this guy can bully him as much as he wants, such as
Talk about Cai Yaheng and Ning Xiaobao.
Or maybe his good temper is only shown to the familiar people around him, and only Cai Yaheng and Ning Xiaobao.
Not long after the phone was hung up, there was a knock on the door. The servant led the guest to the door. He saw a young man in his thirties, dressed cleanly and neatly. The tailored suit was something special.
Cheap goods must be tailor-made.
"Mr. Zhong," the man stopped opposite Zhong Yi and introduced himself respectfully, "I am the John who has contacted you before."
Zhong Xin glanced sideways at the man who called himself John, as if he didn't want to see him. He pointed his finger on his forehead and thought for a moment, "Well, it seems he has some impression."
The meaning of these words is obvious, that is, I didn’t remember to know you. The smile on John’s face suddenly became a little stiff, and he smiled, “It’s no wonder that you, noble man, tend to forget things. I have communicated with you before.
, those who want to buy Kelly Manor, we have sent our quotation to your mailbox, I wonder if you have seen it."
John's Chinese is very blunt. When many words come out of his mouth, you have to think carefully before you can guess what they mean. I don't think he has been studying Chinese for a long time.
Judging from Zhong Yi's reaction, John probably learned Chinese in vain. Zhong Yi shook his head without even thinking about it, "I'm too old to play with my email. It's just a decoration!"
Generally speaking, in an industry as big as Zhongyi, many things are delegated to people in the company, and there is no need for him to read emails personally. This kind of statement is obviously just perfunctory to John.
Sure enough, the expression on John's face became a little ugly again.
But it seems that Kelly Manor is very important to them. Even though he was disgraced by being refuted, John still slowly stated the acquisition plan of Kelly Manor and the entire terrain survey without giving up.
He carefully sorted out the directions for use, quotations, etc. and sent them to Zhong Yi.
Zhong Xin pretended to read it seriously this time, but it seemed that the time he spent reading it was a little too long. There were only two pieces of paper, but he read it for nearly half an hour!
It could be seen that John on the other side was very impatient and gearing up, his eyes were not very real, he looked here and there, always looking at Zhong Yi nervously.
The more John acted like this, the more calm Zhong Yi became. After the confrontation between the two, John was quickly defeated. In the end, it was he who spoke first, "Mr. Zhong, what's the problem with this plan?"
Is there anything you are dissatisfied with?"
"In summary," Zhong Xi slowly put down the plan and leaned back on the chair, "You just want to buy my Kaili Manor, right?"
John nodded repeatedly, "That's right. According to our investigation, if Kaili Manor is used for residential purposes, it will be very inappropriate in terms of location and building scale. We are also doing this to create a win-win cooperation opportunity for everyone..."
John's words were ruthlessly interrupted by Zhong Xin. He turned around and looked at Ning Xiaobao with interest, "How is it? Do you think it can be sold?"
Ning Xiaobao looked at John, then at Zhong Yi, then lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
To sell or not to sell? How do you know? Ning Xiaobao doesn’t even know what kind of place the Kaili Manor is. Only the devil knows what Zhong Yi is thinking!
But since Zhong had questioned himself, Ning Xiaobao could only give an answer. He could feel that Zhong's question of his was definitely not a whim, but a test for himself.
The old guy is really insidious!
While Ning Xiaobao was secretly cursing Zhong Yi, the servant knocked on the door and came in with two cups of coffee on the tray in his hand.
Zhong Yi nodded and winked at the servant, who immediately understood and placed the coffee on the tray in front of Ning Xiaobao and Zhong Yi!
Originally, Ning Xiaobao was a little angry when he heard Zhong Yi said that he only wanted two cups of coffee - he did not treat himself as a unit. Although it was indeed not good for children to drink coffee, Ning Xiaobao just wanted an equal status.
.However, now the servant has brought the coffee and placed it in front of himself and Zhong Yi. Logically speaking, even if the servant is ignorant, Zhong Yi, as the master, should let the servant bring the coffee over there. However,
Zhong Yi didn't do this, so the reason is very simple!
This cup of coffee belongs to you. The person who has no status on this table is not you!
After realizing this situation, Ning Xiaobao immediately had the answer in his mind, and smiled proudly at Zhong Yi, "Not for sale!"
Zhong Xin looked at Ning Xiaobao with interest, "Why?"
Ning Xiaobao did not answer Zhong Yi directly, but stood up and leaned close to Zhong Yi's ear, "If this is really a good and profitable business, I believe no businessman would use an arrogant and rude way to sell his own business.
Drive away!"
Ning Xiaobao was very satisfied with his answer. Ever since John came in, Zhong Yi had not made any friendly gestures to him, not even the most basic "giving up his seat to watch tea" in traditional culture! Especially the man who was reading the newspaper just now.
This action clearly showed that he was trying to test the other party's patience without any sincerity in cooperation. Now that the cup of coffee was served in this way, Ning Xiaobao fully understood Zhong Yi's intention.
Sure enough, after hearing Ning Xiaobao's words, Zhong Yi was very satisfied, nodded and turned to look at John.
Before Zhong Yi could speak, John waved his hands repeatedly, "I think this is not good, right? Mr. Zhong, we are very sincere in cooperating with you, and you are simply humiliating us!"
"Really?" Zhong Xin raised his eyebrows innocently, "I don't think so at all. I just followed some opinions and suggestions given to me by my special adviser!"
John was extremely angry, "Mr. Zhong! This is a very important business for us, how can we listen to the opinions of a child?"
Zhong Ji thought for a while, "Well, at least this kid respects me! At least he doesn't act like some people!"
As Zhong Xin spoke, he threw the plan in front of John, "Is this what you call respect? You go to other people's homes to conduct investigations without the owner's permission, and you plan to sell other people's homes. What do you think?
Do all people respect others in this way?”
John shook his head quickly, "No, no, no! We really don't mean anything else! We just found that your occupancy rate in Kelly Manor is very low. You only go there once or twice a year, not to mention that the location of Kelly Manor is not available now.
It is not suitable for living. We are doing this to provide convenience for you..."
"Sir," Ning Xiaobao stood up and cleared his throat, "I wonder if you have ever heard of a common saying in our country, which is called 'Money is hard to buy, but I am happy'?"
"No." John continued to persuade Zhong Xin without even looking at Ning Xiaobao.
"Since you haven't heard of it!" Ning Xiaobao raised his voice, "Let me explain it to you! What this means is that I don't want to sell that manor. Whether I can live in it or not, it belongs to me.
The matter has nothing to do with you! I remember that there is a proverb in your country, which is called 'The emperor can't buy the smelly fish and shrimps I like', right? That's what I want to say!"
Regarding Ning Xiaobao's sonorous and powerful words, Zhong Yi couldn't help but nod his head in appreciation, while John was stunned by Ning Xiaobao's words.
John thought for a long time, but still couldn't believe that such words came from a child's mouth. With an awkward smile on his face, he said, "Kid, I'm afraid you don't understand this matter.
It’s not a small amount of money! You can buy a lot of toys and cars..."
Ning Xiaobao was very disdainful of John's words, but on his face he put on the expression that a well-behaved "child" should have, "Uncle, I don't like toy cars, but I like reading books. Take a look at the books in this room.
How many books can that money buy?”
"Buy books?" John felt funny in his heart. Children are still children after all. "I can buy hundreds of times the price of these books!"
"Hundreds of times?" Ning Xiaobao snorted disdainfully, "If your company could buy so many books, I guess you wouldn't have to sit here nodding and bowing!"
John didn't quite understand what Ning Xiaobao meant. He looked at the little guy doubtfully, and saw the little guy pointing to a row of books on the top floor, "You know? Those are the only fragments of books in the world, maybe except here."
, you can’t find it anywhere else! If something like this, which is hundreds of years old, is so worthless in your eyes, why do you come here and beg others to sell you a house!”
Being scolded by Ning Xiaobao like this, John was very upset. If it wasn't for Zhong Yi's face, he would have taught Ning Xiaobao a lesson!
John thought for a long time and sighed softly, "Mr. Zhong, no matter what, this plan is profitable for both of us. Do you really not consider it at all?"
Zhong Yi knew that what John said was absolutely true. Kelly Manor was indeed not a good choice for a long-term residence. Even shopping in that area required a two-hour drive. The expenses in all aspects were magnified a lot due to the butterfly effect. However,
, even so he still wouldn't sell it.
That is Zhong Yi's "stinky fish and rotten shrimp". It may be dilapidated in the eyes of others, but only Zhong Yi knows how important that place is to him.
That is the place where he and Ning Xuan once lived together. It contains the only remaining memories of him and Ning Xuan. No matter what the price, he will not give it to others!
