The wait lasted for more than half an hour. Judging from Ye Su's state of mind, it was natural that half an hour of waiting would not cause any impetuous emotions.
But Li Mengmeng was really a little restless.
He kept looking at his watch, and at the same time, his eyes kept drifting to the door of the private room from time to time.
After Li Qingmei booked the private room, she had already informed the minister responsible for approving the loan, so if the minister came, he would go directly to the private room.
"Why haven't you arrived yet? The agreed-upon time is relatively late. Even if there is a traffic jam, we should have arrived."
After raising her hand to look at her watch again, Li Mengmeng finally couldn't help but speak.
"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Stay calm. No matter whether you arrive early or late, you will eventually arrive. Your current mentality is not conducive to talking about things."
Ye Su said with a smile, while pouring a glass of water for Li Mengmeng.
"I understand the truth, but...but it's just hard to do."
Li Mengmeng said distressedly.
"Talk about yourself. This can relieve your tension. It seems that you are very talented in finance. Qingmei allows you to be responsible for the loan. This is a sign of trust and recognition for you. This
How long does it take? It’s really not easy to do this.”
Ye Su said with a smile.
"It's not that she's very talented. It's just that Ms. Li never hides anything. As long as we don't understand anything, she will explain it to us in detail. I really think this is a rare opportunity and I don't want to spend the rest of my life doing it."
If you are just a little girl, you must take advantage of this opportunity to learn as much as possible. Although financial work is tedious, it is actually the core of a company and the top priority. If you can rely on the skills of a certified public accountant in the future,
If you prove it, then I can be considered a success."
Ye Su's question indeed diverted Li Mengmeng's attention. After recalling it for a moment, Li Mengmeng said with a satisfied expression.
"Well, it's a good thing to have your own goals in life. People are not afraid of doing nothing in this life. They are just afraid that when they get old, they will find that their whole life has been completely wasted. Among all emotions, the most useless one
Yes, it’s regret.”
Ye Su said with appreciation.
Li Mengmeng's mood obviously improved greatly after being praised by Ye Su, and the anxiety caused by the minister's absence also calmed down a lot.
The two chatted for another ten minutes, and through Li Mengmeng, Ye Su finally learned more about the recent situation of Li's real estate.
Just when Li Mengmeng was talking enthusiastically, the door of the private room was finally pushed open from the outside.
Then a wealthy man of medium height, with a beer belly and who was obviously middle-aged and stout, walked in.
"Minister Lin, you are here."
Seeing the rich man walk in, Li Mengmeng quickly stood up and said with a smile on his face.
"Haha, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. The bank had something to do and I had a meeting, which resulted in a delay of some time."
While the rich man expressed his apology, his eyes traced across Ye Su's body without leaving any trace. When he found that Ye Su did not stand up to greet him when he came in, he felt a little unhappy in his heart.
"It doesn't matter. In fact, we don't have to wait long. Waiter, please serve the food."
As Li Mengmeng spoke, the waiter outside the private room gave instructions.
Then he sat down and looked at the rich man and asked: "Minister Lin, what should you drink tonight? White or red?"
"Since we're having Chinese food, of course we'd better drink something white. Let's have two bottles of Maotai first."
The rich man said with a smile, then turned to look at Ye Su and asked, "What do you call this person?"
"My surname is Ye. Originally, Qingmei wanted to come here in person. However, when Li's real estate was starting up, there were too many things to do and I couldn't get away from it, so I had to entrust me to come here."
Ye Su replied with a smile.
When the rich man heard Ye Su's affectionate address to Li Qingmei, his eyelids involuntarily raised.
Qin Songlin was behind Li's real estate, which was no secret among Qingjiang's upper class. There were even rumors that Li Qingmei was Qin Songlin's underground lover.
This kind of rumor spreads widely, and is very popular.
Otherwise, it is really impossible to explain why Qin Songlin spared no effort in supporting Li's real estate, even going beyond a basic and reasonable scope.
It is precisely because of the popularity of this rumor that during this period, despite Li Qingmei's dazzling brilliance, no one in Qingjiang City dared to have her idea.
So when the rich man heard Ye Su calling Li Qingmei's name so casually and seemingly out of habit, the rich man was a little unsure of Ye Su's identity.
However, the banking system has always been managed vertically, independent of and unaffected by the local administrative system.
Except that after reaching a certain social stratum, they eventually need to give some face to the local government. Strictly speaking, banks themselves do not need to look at the faces of local officials to act.
On the contrary, because banks hold a large amount of funds, it is often local officials who seek help from banks.
Therefore, although the rich man was a little surprised, he didn't really take Ye Su seriously.
Even Qin Songlin himself has little deterrent effect on banks.
"Haha, Miss Mengmeng is so dazzling that she has always fascinated me since I saw her before. So this time when I heard that Miss Mengmeng was inviting me, I turned down all other dinners without hesitation.
Dare to come as soon as possible. Miss Mengmeng, even for this, don’t you have to have a drink first?”
Xiao Long Bao and some other dishes were quickly served. After watching the waiter open Maotai and fill a cup for each of the three of them, Minister Lin said with a smile.
Li Mengmeng looked at the half-full glass of 52-degree Moutai in front of her, her face changed slightly, and she forced a smile and said: "Minister Lin, I'm not very good at drinking. If I drank such a glass directly, I'd probably faint immediately.
It’s on this wine table.”
"Miss Mengmeng, don't be modest. Last time we met, you drank more than half a catty, and you didn't seem drunk afterward. Why would you use such words to trick me now? I have a habit, that is
I don’t like to talk about official matters when I’m not happy after drinking.”
Minister Lin squinted at Li Mengmeng and said with a smile.
"Minister Lin, although the loan we need this time is relatively large, the Li Group has always had a good reputation and is a high-quality loan customer. The loan to us is also an excellent investment for your bank.
This is a win-win cooperation.”
Li Mengmeng forced a smile and said.
"Every company that wants to borrow from our bank will tell me that this is an excellent investment and a win-win cooperation, but in fact the bank still has so many bad debts every year. Hehe, so, Miss Mengmeng, there are some things,
It’s not just words that work.”
Minister Lin had a look of disbelief on Li Mengmeng's face, and continued with a smile: "Miss Mengmeng, I didn't come to the appointment just to see you perfunctory with me."
