Yang Guang called yesterday and wanted to invite him and Wang Dong to dinner. When the two arrived at the reserved restaurant, Yang Guang and Zhao Lili had already arrived first. In addition to the two of them, there was also a man in his early twenties who looked a little older.
Shy young man.
"Xue Chen, Dongzi, let me introduce you two. This is my uncle's younger brother, his name is Yang Ming." Yang Guang introduced with a smile.
After Wang Dong sat down, he smiled and said: "They are really two brothers. One is Yang Guang and the other is Yang Ming. Together they are Guangming. Yang Guang, do you have a younger brother? Let's call him Yang Ding. This way
Taken together, they are the Bright Summit in the novel.”
These words made everyone laugh. Yang Guang scolded Wang Dong with a smile. After a few people sat down, they started talking and laughing, and more than half an hour passed before they knew it.
At this time, a waiter came in and asked if he wanted to order. Yang Guang said that not everyone had arrived yet and would have to wait for a while.
Zhao Lili glanced at her watch, pursed her lips and asked, "Why hasn't Ma Bo come yet? It's been half an hour."
"There's a traffic jam on the road, it should be soon." Yang Guang said casually, and then said to Xue Chen that he invited four people, who were also the best men at the wedding, to get acquainted with each other.
There is another person who is not here named Ma Bo, who is a friend from the Education Bureau whom I met not long ago.
Wang Dong was a little impatient to wait. He was more than half an hour late. It was too exaggerated. But he didn't say anything. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He suddenly sniffed his nose and asked with a smile: "Xiao Li"
, you also use Tianxin perfume."
Zhao Lili smiled and nodded: "Did you smell it?"
"Hey, of course I can smell it. The fragrance of Tianxin perfume is so special. It smells so good. There is no other possibility than Tianxin perfume, right." Wang Dong said carelessly.
Yang Guang took over the conversation and said: "Tianxin perfume is indeed very good. Many people use it now, but the price is a bit expensive. A small bottle costs 3,000 yuan, which is almost as much as the price of gold."
"Who says it's not the case? This bottle costs me half a month's salary." Zhao Lili also said a little helplessly.
Because Xue Chen never said anything, the two of them obviously didn't know about the relationship between Tianxin Perfume Factory and Xue Chen, otherwise they wouldn't complain in front of them.
Hearing the two complaining that the price of Tianxin perfume was too high, Wang Dong chuckled, blinked his little eyes twice, and said thoughtfully: "Oh, look, the price of Tianxin perfume is really too high, a little bit."
They are not friendly to the people."
Xue Chen naturally heard that Wang Dong was talking to himself, but the price issue was not his business. Moreover, this was Tianxin Perfume's positioning from the beginning, and it was a high-consumption luxury brand.
Just then, the door of the private room was pushed open, and a man in a floral shirt walked in with a black leather bag under his arm. He said repeatedly: "Yang Guang, you are all here." He walked over and sat down.
Xue Chen's side.
Yang Guang looked over and asked, "Ma Bo, why did we get here? Is there a traffic jam on the road?"
"Hey, it's not a traffic jam, but something suddenly needs to be dealt with. There is a problem with a student's academic status. The parents asked me to help deal with it. We have just met. It's a trivial matter." After speaking, Ma Bo lifted his arm.
The leather bag under my belt was thrown on the table in front of me, and a small envelope slipped out from the zipper of the bag. From the shape, it was easy to tell that it should contain a wad of money.
"Oh, that's right." Yang Guang nodded.
Ma Bo was minding his own business, crossed his legs, lit a cigarette and puffed out, then casually glanced at the other people on the table.
Yang Guang also gave a brief introduction: "This Xue Chen and Wang Dong are my college classmates. He is Yang Ming, my younger brother."
Ma Bo simply nodded, blew out a smoke ring, flicked the ashes, and asked: "Yang Guang, what were you talking about just now?"
Xue Chen picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip of tea. Wang Dong turned his head and glanced at Ma Bo with a somewhat unhappy look in his eyes. He was also very unhappy with this person in his heart.
I arrived more than half an hour late than the agreed time, and asked a group of people to wait. When I came in, I didn't even fart, I just said "Sorry for being late", and I smoked a cigarette without asking.
Regardless of whether the other people present are willing or not, the most important thing is that this is the first time we meet, not friends we are already familiar with.
If his father finds out about this, he will definitely have to teach him a lesson, because his father has told him more than once that the first impression is the most important when two people meet, and they must also understand etiquette in order to win the respect of others.
.
"We were chatting about Xinxiang Xiang just now." Yang Guang returned.
"Oh, Tianxin perfume." Ma Bo took a puff of cigarette, with a look of understanding on his face, and then commented, "Tianxin perfume is not bad. I bought three bottles for my girlfriend two days ago.
, three types of fragrances, change them every day.”
Zhao Lili said unexpectedly: "Ma Bo, you are really rich. Three bottles cost nearly 10,000 yuan. My Yang Guang can't bear to part with it."
Yang Guang scratched his head and said with a smile: "One bottle is enough. I'll buy it for you when it's gone."
Xue Chen helped Yang Guang with a smile and said: "Xiao Li, Yang Guang is a good steward of the family. You two are about to get married. His money is your money. When you get married, Yang Guang plans to give
If you buy ten bottles, I'm afraid you won't agree and call him a prodigal, am I right?"
Hearing what Xue Chen said, Zhao Lili thought for a while and nodded in agreement: "Xue Chen, what you said makes sense."
Yang Guang also cast a grateful look.
Ma Bo held the cigarette in one hand, picked up the tea cup with the other hand and took a sip of tea. After putting down the tea cup, he curled his lips, reached out and patted Xue Chen on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "What makes sense? Brother, I think you said
That’s not right. Money is earned, not saved. If you had 18 million in your pocket, you would definitely not say that.”
Xue Chen didn't have anything to say about this Mabo. He glanced at the shoulder he had just been patted on. He didn't know whether the man's hands were stained with tea or sweat, but he saw traces on his white shirt.
There was a finger mark that was neither light nor heavy.
After Wang Dong heard this, he glanced over and sneered in a low voice,
Yang Guang also realized that Ma Bo had a slight temperament problem. In fact, he and Ma Bo had not known each other for too long, only two or three months, and it was a coincidence that Ma Bo was the best man. He was not invited, but
Ma Bo proposed it himself and said that it would give him face. Faced with Ma Bo's enthusiasm, he was too embarrassed to refuse.
He could faintly see that Xue Chen and Wang Dong seemed to have some opinions about Ma Bo, so he quickly picked up the conversation and said, "Ma Bo, which batch of perfume did you buy?"
"The third batch." After Ma Bo finished speaking, he leaned forward and said with a slightly proud smile, "Actually, I only spent 4,500 yuan on three bottles of Tianxin perfume, and I only used one bottle.
One thousand and fifty, only half the price."
"Hey, why did you only spend one thousand and five thousand? Isn't the lowest price three thousand?" Zhao Lili asked in surprise. According to her understanding, the lowest price of Tianxin perfume on the market is three thousand, and some stores even charge more.
One or two hundred more, but definitely not less than three thousand, because the purchase price is nearly three thousand yuan.
Ma Bo leaned on the back of his chair and put out the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray. He raised the corners of his mouth and said proudly: "Of course it's because I have someone in Tianxin Perfume Factory. Naturally, I don't need to buy it at the ex-factory price. It's on the market."
I got it before. If you two want to get two bottles at the lowest price, I can give it a try, but I have to wait for the fourth batch."
After hearing these words, Xue Chen's eyes moved. Is there anyone in Tianxin Perfume Factory who can get the perfume before it goes on the market? As far as he knows, except for him who gave away a few bottles in advance, no one else seems to have it.
Is this right...?
Wang Dong glanced at Xue Chen, rolled his eyes, walked over with a smile, and asked Ma Bo: "Brother, can you really get Tianxin perfume at a low price before it goes on the market? How did you do it?
Ah, if there is any way, can you tell me about it?"
Seeing Wang Dong's "admiration and envy" expression, Ma Bo smiled, his squinting eyes full of pride: "Of course I can when I say you can. As for what kind of career path, didn't I tell you, there are people in the factory."
Yang Guang, Zhao Lili and Yang Ming all looked at Ma Bo.
Wang Dong pretended to be surprised and asked: "Is there someone in the factory? Is it the management of Tianxin Perfume Factory, so he can get the perfume at a low price?"
"I didn't expect your head to be quite sharp. Yes, my cousin is in charge of packaging the piece at Tianxin Perfume Factory, and it was she who made it." Ma Bo leaned back on the chair, crossed his legs, and praised Wang Dong lightly.
.
Hearing the compliment, Wang Dong narrowed his eyes, glanced at Xue Chen, who frowned slightly, and chuckled inwardly. Although Ma Bo didn't say it explicitly, getting perfume in advance was obviously not a normal employee benefit, and it should be theft.
It was done through various means, but he actually said it in front of Xue Chen, which is interesting.
Wang Dong realized this, and Xue Chen naturally understood it in his heart. He glanced at Ma Bo, who had his legs crossed and a face full of pride. He didn't expect that when he went out for a meal, he got some unexpected news.
But neither Wang Dong nor Xue Chen himself revealed the relationship with Tianxin Perfume Factory, nor did they ask any more questions. They already knew enough information to find out the matter easily.
The six of them chatted for more than half an hour while eating. Yang Guang saw that Xue Chen and Wang Dong didn't seem to be too interested in Ma Bo and couldn't chat together, so he asked to go out to pay the bill. The group of people got up and prepared to leave.
After going downstairs and entering the lobby, Ma Bo answered a phone call and said to Yang Guang: "What a coincidence. My cousin came to Haicheng to do some errands. She just finished the work and asked me to come and sing karaoke with her. Yang Guang
, I think we might as well go there together, it’s crowded and lively, and by the way, I’ll talk to my cousin about the perfume.”
Yang Guang showed an excited expression, obviously wanting to get some Tianxin perfume at a low price. He turned his eyes to Xue Chen and Wang Dong. He thought they would not go there together, but what surprised him was that Xue Chen and Wang Dong
Dongdu agreed to go there together. (To be continued)
