Ning Xiaofan looked up and couldn't help but be startled. Hou San was lying on the edge of the booth at some point, whistling at him. The way he winked and winked was so vulgar and vulgar.
Why is this guy always so sneaky? Ning Xiaofan cursed in his heart. He heard him smile and say: "Brother Ning, why do you always stay in this corner? Aren't you bored? How about I find a buddy?"
Let’s get together and play Landlords.”
"Forget it, I can't play well, and I don't gamble either..."
"What, this is not gambling at all. The bottom is 10 yuan and the top is 160. We are playing a small game."
Is this still small? Ning Xiaofan shook his head and said: "I really don't like playing cards and making money."
"Then what do you like to play? You can't just stay here. You've been here for two days, and you don't seem to know anyone except me. Why don't you come out and show off and have fun with the big guys..."
Ning Xiaofan looked confused: "Isn't that good? It's working time now."
"Damn it, Brother Ning, you're not blind, are you? Forget it, you're new here and you don't know. Let me tell you this, this is how our department works. When the time comes, you should have fun and have fun. It's so fun, just go out and do it after get off work, it's that simple. To put it bluntly, when you come to our department, you just spend your time."
"Spare time? At that time..."
"Call me Hou Sanxing."
"Oh, Hou San, what exactly does our department do? Is there nothing to do?"
Hou San chuckled: "It's not like there's nothing to do. For example, if the logistics department needs to send something and they can't find anyone, our department has to help. And... it's just field work. As for field work,
It depends on our eldest sister. If she receives field work, we will have something to do. If there is no work, we will just be idle..."
Field work? Ning Xiaofan was moved when he heard this, and asked quickly: "Our department still has field work? What kind of work?"
"It's hard to say... Sometimes we go to our company's mines, sometimes we cooperate with the geological department to conduct field exploration, and sometimes it's more exciting, that is, we go to large mineral veins to find local treasures..."
"Local treasure?"
"Yeah, don't look at the fact that our department usually has nothing to do. Let me tell you, our department is full of talents. Everyone has one or two unique skills. Each of them is a leverager. Prospecting is a trivial matter, but working on local treasures is the key.
The serious work of our department...
Ning Xiaofan was confused when he heard this, and said hurriedly: "Wait a minute, what is the local treasure you are talking about?"
"Hehe, you don't understand..." Hou San smiled mischievously: "Let me tell you, gem, you always know gem, right?"
"Of course I know about gems."
"Isn't that right? Gemstones are buried deep in the ground. Aren't they just local treasures? This is the jargon of our industry. You will understand it when you get started."
"I see, then when can we go out to look for that... local treasure?"
Hou San rolled his eyes: "For amateurs, it's not that easy. We have to wait for an opportunity. For example, if the geological department discovers any large mineral veins, they must be detected before mining. Then we will have to take action..."
Hou San seemed a little excited when he said this: "Let me tell you, gems are not sapphires, rubies, emeralds, etc., as you imagine. Those so-called gems are too ordinary in our eyes.
The gems I told you are different. They are the ones buried deep in the ground. They are very rare. You have never seen or heard of them. Let’s put it this way, they should be extremely rare gems, maybe native to the earth.
Maybe it’s a meteorite that fell on our earth and formed a gemstone that took hundreds of millions of years to form... Well, forget it, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you. In short, as long as you are lucky enough to get such a gemstone, I guarantee that you will have nothing to worry about in your life.
Eat and drink..."
Hou San spoke in general terms, but Ning Xiaofan could hear his interest. Just the name of gem was enough to excite him, not to mention that he had never heard of it. If you get one, you will not have to worry about eating and drinking for the rest of your life. The so-called gem.
Treasures touch people's hearts. It would be strange if Ning Xiaofan didn't.
It’s just that what this wretched guy said is a bit too bizarre. He has never heard of a gem that he has never seen? What on earth is it?
With his mind spinning, Ning Xiaofan couldn't help but ask again: "Hou San, have you seen this kind of gem?"
Hou San smiled proudly: "I've seen it before. Last year, um, last year we went to the Sahara with my eldest sister, and we got a few gems. But we went together with some foreigners who specialize in getting local treasures.
Professionals, we are just working on the periphery. After we got it, we just took a look at it from a distance and didn’t see clearly what it looked like. However, the few gems we got that time were worth a lot.
It’s not low, just take me as an example. I went with you that time and just tinkered with the outside, but I got a hundred thousand without doing anything..."
"A hundred thousand?" Ning Xiaofan trembled when he heard this.
"What's that?" Hou San sneered and said, "I'll scare you if I tell you. Later I heard that one of the gems I got that time was auctioned for more than 100 million."
"More than 100 million?" Ning Xiaofan's eyes were as wide as glutinous rice balls, as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and even his breathing became heavier. These words sounded so refreshing, and the relationship development department usually looked at it as nonsense
, in fact, it is a very profitable way!
"Why are your eyes so wide open? Don't be surprised. Keep your voice down. Only people in our development department know about this. Don't talk about it. Don't look at it. Our department usually has nothing to do. It really needs something to do."
You have to risk your life. Do you think the local treasure is so easy to get? Just think of the time we went back to the Sahara. There were twelve professionals who went with us last time. Do you know how many of them died? It's not enough.
There are five of them, five experts are left there, and they can’t even find the body..."
"No way, five people died? It's so dangerous!" Ning Xiaofan was stunned.
"So, the eldest sister usually doesn't care much about us. Otherwise, do you think our department would have such freedom? But, you are a newcomer, and you probably won't have the opportunity to go out in the field, so you can rest assured.
Just hang out in our department, you can get a salary and have some freedom, this kind of job is pretty good..."
As Hou San was frothing at the mouth, he heard someone shouting: "Hou San, where have you been? You've lost all your money, do you still want to raise your bet?"
When Hou San heard this, he quickly replied loudly: "Yes, I need to raise the bet. Your sister has lost all her money in just a few minutes. If you are not lucky, let your brother do it!"
While Hou San was talking, he didn't even bother to say hello to Ning Xiaofan, and scurried towards the card table...
……………………………………………
The morning passed in a flash, and what made Ning Xiaofan slightly surprised was that at noon, Director Lan was nowhere to be seen.
Ning Xiaofan thought about her talk about bringing food yesterday and waited for nearly 20 minutes. Seeing that the female boss was still nowhere to be seen, Ning Xiaofan stopped waiting, got up and left the office.
Ning Xiaofan had his female boss's meal card with him, and there was still a lot of money in the card, but thinking that his female boss didn't dine at the company, he was too embarrassed to touch the meal card, so he went to the noodle shop yesterday.
He ordered a medium bowl of beef noodles and a braised egg. While waiting for the meal, Ning Xiaofan thought of the mature and beautiful young woman Qin Yulan for no reason, and was vaguely looking forward to meeting her in this small noodle shop.
But although the idea was good, until I finished the bowl of noodles, the mature and beautiful young woman was nowhere to be seen...
After eating a bowl of noodles, just like yesterday at noon, Ning Xiaofan lit a cigarette and walked to the leisure square opposite the Xinao Building. It was almost time to go to work, and then he slowly walked towards the building.
Returning to the Development Department, the office was still empty and seemed very quiet. Ning Xiaofan was not surprised. Employees in this department would never show up before working hours.
Glancing at the supervisor's office, the door was closed tightly. Ning Xiaofan walked to the door softly and listened for a while. There was no movement inside, so the female boss probably hadn't come yet.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard a phone ringing suddenly. It was the landline phone in the office ringing.
Ning Xiaofan wanted to ignore it, but the phone kept ringing. After thinking about it, he opened the door and walked in.
Picking up the phone, before Ning Xiaofan could say anything, he heard a magnetic baritone voice coming from inside: "Lin'er, why did you answer the phone?"
Lin'er? Ning Xiaofan was slightly startled, and then realized that the female boss's name was Lan Lin. This phone call was probably for her. Lin'er? Her name was so disgusting! Ning Xiaofan curled his lips, coughed dryly and said, "Can you please call me?"
who."
"Who are you?" The person on the phone was obviously stunned.
"I am a staff member of the Development Department. This is the office of our Director Lan. Are you looking for Director Lan?"
"Well, I'm looking for her, Lin'er, oh, is your manager Lan here? Ask her to answer the phone."
"She's not here. She didn't come to work this morning. Is there anything you need me to tell you?"
"Not at work? Forget it. By the way, her mobile phone is not turned on. Do you have any other contact information for her?"
"Well, I'm new here. I don't know her other contact information."
"That's it, forget it then." As soon as the other party finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
He hung up without saying hello, showing no courtesy at all. Ning Xiaofan frowned and put down the phone with some displeasure.
As soon as the receiver was put down, the landline phone rang again.
It couldn't be the guy just now, Ning Xiaofan reached out to pick up the phone and said first: "Hello, who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for... eh, Ning Xiaofan?" This time, a nice female voice came from the microphone, and the other party seemed to recognize his voice.
Ning Xiaofan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he said with a surprised look on his face: "You are..."
"What kind of memory? I even recognized your voice, but you didn't recognize my voice..." The voice from the other end of the phone clearly revealed a trace of anger...
