Gao Bin was chatting about entertainment industry gossip with the nurse on the VIP floor. He hurried back after receiving Lao Tao's message.
"Dean, please call me." Gao Bin knocked on the door and entered the office.
"Well, come and sit here. I've been too busy reporting these days to ask you, how are you? Are you getting used to it here?"
When Gao Bin heard that he cared about himself, his heart felt warm:
"It's pretty good. My colleagues are also very nice to me."
"Haha, I heard that you either buy milk tea for the nurse or treat the doctor to dinner..."
Gao Bin heard the deep meaning in Lao Tao's words and did not hide what he had done:
"Thanks to you, those medical representatives often send me red envelopes. Don't worry, they are all small amounts of one hundred or two hundred. I dare not accept big money."
Lao Tao has been in the hospital for half his life, doesn't he know what's going on here? Trying to cheat on him is just asking for death.
"Haha, you are quite honest."
"Don't worry, I know what I can and can't do. If I don't accept the money, it will make me look unsocial. The one hundred and two hundred dollars is just fun between friends, not a mistake."
Lao Tao nodded:
"Then I'm relieved. I'm worried that you won't be able to grasp it."
"Don't worry, I can't embarrass you no matter what. By the way, among these medical representatives, Xiao Ya from Terry Medicine is the most attentive. I tried it out and she wanted me to arrange clinical trials of new drugs." p>
Lao Tao immediately grimaced:
"Is there still such a thing?"
"Yes, in the past few days, I was trying to find out more information before telling you."
"Well, Terra Medical has a very large business and is considered the leader in our country. But in recent years, they have become more and more excessive. They are rushing to launch new drugs, regardless of their efficacy, and just want to make money by listing them.
It's the same this time. In less than two years, I developed a drug that is said to be able to treat coronary heart disease. I didn't have much success before I wanted to push it into clinical practice. Well, I'm in Central China for a day anyway, so they can't even think about this good thing!"<
/p>
Gao Bin muttered:
"I don't understand this, but I heard that they have already secured clinical trials from several medical institutions."
"So what if I pass? I don't use their medicine, what can you do to me?"
It was the first time for Gao Bin to see such a domineering side of Lao Tao, and he couldn't help but say:
"I understand, don't worry, I'll help you deal with Xiao Ya."
"Well, you did a good job. You must know what these medical representatives are hiding. As you said, take what you should take and don't reach out for what you shouldn't, otherwise I won't protect you."<
/p>
Gao Bin nodded:
"I understand and I won't let you down."
"Okay, I have a dinner with some leaders at noon. You can drive me there."
"Understood."
Because Lao Tao had arrangements at noon, Gao Bin had no choice but to regretfully put down the dinner party with a few nurses and drive Lao Tao to the hotel.
On the way there, Lao Tao was reading an academic report, and suddenly he thought of something and said:
"Today's lunch party, there is a boss named Ye who is also going to attend. We met at a bar before. He is interested in finding a hospital to donate money. The fund is not small. You can talk to his assistant or driver then.
, build a good relationship."
This is the first task Lao Tao gave to Gao Bin, so Gao Bin naturally has to work hard to complete it:
"I understand, I'll try to find a way to get something out of the other person's mouth."
Lao Tao nodded happily:
"Work hard and you will have a bright future."
"Thank you, Dean, for your cultivation."
We successfully delivered Lao Tao to the hotel. As a driver, Gao Bin certainly couldn't sit at the main table, but the host who was treating us today had made arrangements, and a private room was opened next door for the leaders and the boss's driver to dine.
Gao Bin has no idea of being neglected. He eats wherever he goes. He is no longer a king or mayor, but a driver. Naturally, he cannot go to talk to leaders and bosses about equality and human rights.
With his experience and sharp tongue, he quickly became involved with these drivers, especially Mr. Ye’s assistant and driver, Ashang.
This kid doesn't have enough character. He was blown away by Gao Bin in just a few words. He exposed all his secrets to the outside world. He is a complete idiot.
Gao Bin is happy to deal with such people, he doesn't have to worry about it, it's easy.
After eating, Lao Tao got in the car. Judging from his rosy face, he must have had a few drinks.
Gao Bin handed over the freshly brewed wolfberry and ginseng tea:
"Dean, we just soaked it, the temperature is just right."
Lao Tao took the thermos cup:
"I'm interested, how are you doing there?"
"I had a chat with that person, and he said that his boss was still hesitant, mainly because of the differences in opinions among the family. Boss Ye wanted to donate 50 million, but the family thought it was too much, so they donated 5 million or 10 million.
That’s enough.”
Lao Tao hummed:
"Have you left your contact information?"
"Keep it."
"Okay, continue to maintain the relationship, pay attention to the trends, and tell me any news as soon as possible."
"Understood."
Lao Tao is becoming more and more satisfied with Gao Bin. He didn't have high hopes at first, but now he sees that he still underestimated this boy.
No matter what, it's a good thing, and it's an explanation for his parents' spirits in heaven.
...
Gao Bin has been looking at houses these days. He hasn't stayed in that dilapidated basement since he joined the job. He has been staying in a hotel these days.
But his current income cannot support the high consumption of a hotel. Comfort is just comfortable, not a long-term solution, so he still has to rent a house.
It was a coincidence that when he was looking for a house online, he accidentally saw the existence of Ode to Joy Community.
Gao Bin thought, isn't this the community where the protagonist group lives?
Click it and take a look, good guy, it’s really expensive!
A two-bedroom apartment of more than 100 square meters costs 15,600. Well, considering that the community is located in the JA area, in the city center, with complete supporting facilities such as subways and shopping malls around it, this price is not understandable.
But Gao Bin really wants to ask Wumei, except for the rich second-generation Ye Zhenzhen, how much money do the remaining four earn to afford such luxury?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
This is also the reason why Gao Bin doesn't want to come to this world. It's too out of touch with reality.
But after all, he still had to establish a relationship with the protagonist group, but the price was indeed beyond his budget.
Anyway, based on his salary alone, he can rent a single room with this little money.
But it doesn't matter. There are so many people rushing to send him money. The question now is whether he has a house.
He wanted to be closer to the protagonist group, so the floor should not be too low, at least 20 floors up. As for which building it was, he had no way of knowing, so he could only gamble on luck.
In fact, currently there is only one house listed for rent from the 20th floor up, located on the 23rd floor, with an area of more than 120 square meters and a rent of 20,000.
Gao Bin hesitated for a moment, then dialed the intermediary's phone number based on the above information.
After a brief chat, we made an appointment to view the house the day after tomorrow. Whether or not we want to rent it will be known until we see it.
As for the money issue, isn’t there Xiao Ya?
...
The next evening, after Gao Bin sent Tao Yuan home, he left the community and got into Xiao Ya's car.
"Where do you want to eat?" Xiao Ya asked.
"That's fine. I'm not too hungry. Why don't you find a place to sit at a bar?"
"Okay, I didn't expect you to be quite sentimental."
"Haha, there are still many things you don't know."
"That's great. It would be great if my boyfriend could be as romantic as you."
Gao Bin was surprised:
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
"What are you saying? Am I ugly? Why don't you have a boyfriend?" Xiao Ya was very dissatisfied with Gao Bin's attitude.
"No, no, I mean, what normal man can stand this business?"
Xiao Ya sneered:
"Sure enough, men are all the same."
"No matter how dissatisfied you are, this is a fact. Do you like your boyfriend to go out every day to attract bees and butterflies and have wild sex with different beauties?"
"Bah~ don't talk nonsense, I have never fought with anyone."
"Yes, yes, you all go to a five-star hotel."
Xiao Ya's pretty face turned red from holding back:
"If you keep talking nonsense, I will bite you to death, do you believe it?"
"If your father spells it out in separate words, I will believe it."
Xiao Ya turned the steering wheel, parked the car on the side of the road, and punched Gao Bin with a punch:
"Let you talk nonsense, let you talk nonsense!"
Gao Bin just hid and did not fight back. This power was more limited than the energy of scratching the itch.
"Okay, okay, you are a person who will fall out at any time." Gao Bin said depressedly.
"Nonsense, how can facts be just nonsense?"
Xiao Ya didn't know why, but it was very easy to get angry when he was with Gao Bin. He had ten thousand ways to arouse your anger, but he also had ten thousand and one ways to put out the fire for you. This man was really weird.
"Okay, I won't say anything anymore. I'm just curious about what a man your boyfriend is."
Xiao Ya angrily stepped on the accelerator, and the strong inertia brought instantly pushed Gao Bin onto the back of the chair.
"Humph, we are just playing with each other. He likes my money, I like his abs, that's all."
Gao Bin nodded repeatedly:
"I understand, I understand, one is greedy for profit, and the other is motivated by lust."
Xiao Ya said nothing with a cold face and drove alone.
When we got to the place, we didn’t lock the car after we got off the car. We stepped on high heels and rushed into the bar in a huff.
Gao Bin had no choice but to follow her, took out the car keys from her bag, returned to the parking lot and locked the car before returning.
At this moment, Xiao Ya's anger subsided and she handed him the liquor license:
"What to drink?"
Gao Bin glanced at it and found that there was nothing he wanted to drink, so he asked the bartender:
"Can you adjust the Gibson?"
The bartender called the bartender and asked, and he said:
"The guest has good taste. I can make it. Would you like a drink?"
"Of course, let's try your craft."
Xiao Ya's eyes moved:
"You are indeed no ordinary person."
"How to say?"
"People who have no knowledge of cocktails rarely order a Gibson~"
"Haha, it's not bad. After all, I spent a lot of time hanging out in bars when I was young."
Gao Bin responded casually and asked Xiao Ya:
"What do you want?"
"Like you, I haven't had a drink for a long time. The last time I had a Gibson was in Guam."
"Okay, two Gibsons."
"Wait a moment, I'll be here soon."
Xiao Ya held her chin with one hand, and her seductive eyes shot sparks towards Gao Bin:
"Do you know the history of Gibson?"
Gao Bin laughed:
"What? Test whether I am faking it?"
"Then are you pretending?"
Gao Bin ate a potato wedge and said:
"Gipson is the name of a person, an ambassador of an ugly country.
He himself is not good at drinking and does not like socializing.
But as an ambassador, I have to attend various cocktail parties and mediate with important officials of other countries' governments.
In desperation, he had to use tips to bribe the waiters and ask them to replace the spirits in the glasses with boiled water.
Afraid of not being realistic enough, he always puts a pearl onion in the cup as a garnish, so that he can chat with those who drink cocktails.
The bartender at the bar witnessed all this and thought the old man was quite interesting, so he developed a new cocktail to tease him.
The name of the cocktail, thus the birth of this Gibson.
Onlookers also put pearl onions into cocktails, which gave them a unique flavor.
However, the recipe of this wine is almost a copy of Martini, with only slight differences in the dosage.
Gibson is drier, which means the proportion of gin is heavier.
The difference is that the martini uses olives, while the Gibson uses pearl onions to garnish."
Just as he was saying this, the bartender had already started to take action. He first added 5-6 ice cubes into the cocktail jug;
Then pour in the dry gin and dry vermouth.
Then shake the shaker vigorously for about 10 seconds, and pour the mixed liquor into the cocktail glass;
Finally, add pearl onions for decoration, and Gibson is done.
Two glasses of Gibson were served, Gao Bin smiled and said:
"I remember that the authentic Gibson should be more 'dry', so your proportions should have been re-adjusted?"
The bartender’s eyes lit up:
"The customers are really knowledgeable. Yes, the ratio of my gin and vermouth is 4:1. Because most domestic customers can't accept it, I made an adjustment."
Gao Bin nodded:
"Make another cup for me. How about a ratio of 7:1?"
The bartender immediately said:
"No problem, I'll do it right away."
Xiao Ya took a sip and puffed out her tongue, like a little teddy who had eaten chili:
"It's already very spicy."
Gao Bin shrugged:
"I like it spicier."
Xiao Ya pushed his face away:
"If you didn't look around, I would believe you were talking about wine."
Gao Bin chuckled:
"If you don't wear a skirt with such a big opening to seduce me, I don't believe it."
"Why don't you die!" Xiao Ya said angrily.
Although this is the truth, what kind of nonsense is the truth?
"Haha~" Gao Bin took a sip of Gibson, and he was almost surprised.
The two of them drank a few glasses of wine and ate some snacks. Xiao Ya was already in a tipsy state, her face was pink and very cute.
"Gao Bin, I can agree to your request, but you have to give me a guarantee."
"What guarantee? Does the Taoist Institute approve your application? Don't be naive." Gao Bin laughed and shook his head.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Ya frowned.
"Literally speaking, Tao Yuan is a very determined person. To be honest, I have tested him and he will not agree."
"Why?" Xiao Ya couldn't control her voice and shouted.
"Because your company is not kind, but that's not important. What's important is whether the two of us can make money."
Xiao Ya frowned:
"I can't understand anything you said tonight."
"Idiot, if you report the 50,000 yuan truthfully, I will give you 20,000 yuan when you get it."
Xiao Ya's eyes were opened. She used to give people kickbacks, and this was the first time she met someone who gave them kickbacks.
"Aren't you blatantly cheating money?"
"What are you talking about? How can this be a lie? I obviously received the money, but I was not capable enough and couldn't get the job done."
Xiao Ya was speechless:
"You are lying to ghosts, even ghosts will not believe you."
"Does it matter whether you believe it or not? Xiao Ya, although we have not known each other for a long time, you should know who I am. I will not do anything I am not sure about!"
Xiao Ya drank the wine in her glass in one gulp:
"You are really crazy. Every expenditure I make must see a return, otherwise my superiors will not let me go."
"How is it possible? After so many years, every effort you make has been rewarded?"
Xiao Ya's tone paused:
"That's different."
"It's different. You paid in vain before, but now you can get rebates. How great? Think about it carefully. It's your company's money that's being spent anyway. If you have any problems, let them come to me."
Xiao Ya was so depressed that she couldn't speak, but looking at her trembling fingers, you could tell that she was tempted.
Gao Bin finished his drink and stretched:
"For this kind of thing, I must cooperate with the person I trust most, so I won't miss the opportunity again."
The implication is, if you don’t agree, I will find someone else. Anyway, there are so many beauties in the pharmaceutical company, and you, Xiao Ya, are not the only choice.
"What are you so anxious about?" Xiao Yamei rolled her eyes.
"To tell you the truth, I have my eye on a house and want to rent it, but I am short of money."
Xiao Ya suddenly realized:
"We're renting a house. If you didn't tell me earlier, would you like my sister to help you?"
"Don't do this, you are still several months younger than me."
"What's the matter? If I have money, I can be my sister."
Gao Bin sneered:
"Be my sister? Then you have to be prepared to be hollowed out by me."
Xiao Ya felt guilty inexplicably and did not dare to look directly into Gao Bin's sharp eyes.
"Tsk~ What's so bad?" the smallest voice muttered:
"Okay, okay, I agree, but you have to find a way to let me have a meal with Tao Yuan, and you have to show off to the company."
Gao Bin thought for a moment and did not refuse:
"Okay, I want to see the money tomorrow morning."
"OK~"
...
The next day, at noon, after Gao Bin made sure that Dean Tao would not go out, he drove his A6 to the Ode to Joy Community to look at houses.
When he arrived, the agent was already waiting at the gate of the community:
"Is it Mr. Gao?"
"I am, get in the car."
"Hey, it's troublesome~"
Following the agent's instructions, we drove the car into the underground garage and took the elevator directly to the 23rd floor.
"This is it, Mr. Gao. The landlord has been abroad all year round and rarely comes back. He has never lived in the house since he bought it. The previous tenant was a female executive of a listed company. It is very clean and the house is well protected. I just bought this house."
I moved out only after I got the house."
The intermediary pressed the code to unlock the door and let Gao Bin in.
The decoration style is very simple, and the furniture is all famous brands. It can be seen that the landlord is a very particular person.
A three-bedroom house with an area of 120 square meters, a standard square floor plan, with a horizontal hall design, excellent views, and very good lighting.
"Not bad, is the price still negotiable?"
"If you are sincere about renting, I will give you the lowest price, 18,000, but the rent must be paid every three months."
Gao Bin nodded:
"It will be paid monthly for the first two months, and once for the next three months. I will discuss it with the landlord and sign the contract if he agrees."
"Well, I really need to discuss this with the landlord. Do you have financial problems at the moment?"
"Yes, I just changed my job. Let's discuss it. I sincerely rent it for two years."
The agent immediately said:
"Wait a moment, I'll call the landlord right now."
