Pu Jian nodded and said: "Zeng Yuanqing came to see my master today. I listened to what he said, but my master is not very interested in this matter."
"Your master?"
Pu Jian smiled brightly: "I forgot to tell you that the third master agreed to accept me as his disciple."
Xu Chunliang said with a smile: "Third Master and I have been friends for many years, and we are treated as peers. You are Third Master's apprentice. When you see me in the future, don't you want to call me my generation?"
Pu Jian said: "Everyone has his own thing, so don't even think about taking advantage of me."
"Why should I take advantage of your appearance?"
Pu Jian's expression was vulgar: "That's right, of course I'm not as good as Mo Han and your sister."
"Looking for a beating!"
"People of the opposite sex are inhumane!" Pu Jian complained, and just then Ye Qingya came over to ask them to eat.
Although Chen Qianfan concealed a lot of secrets, he was still extremely polite to Xu Chunliang. The longer he knew Xu Chunliang and the more he got to know him, the more he felt that this person was unfathomable. Even his godfather Xue Renzhong treated Xu Chunliang
Everyone is in awe, let alone myself.
Chen Qianfan also realized that Xu Chunliang had been suspicious of him for a long time, otherwise his plan to acquire the Weishan Island Winery would not have failed. Now it is clear that it was Xu Chunliang who made the move in the first place, allowing Mo Han to strike first.
When facing people like Xu Chunliang, even if you cannot become a confidant friend, don't choose to be an enemy. This is Chen Qianfan's principle and his way of life. The ability to operate Qianfan Group to its current scale relies on more than just
luck.
Chen Qianfan showed a certain degree of sincerity. He took the initiative to tell Xu Chunliang that he had reached a cooperation agreement with Mo Han to jointly research and develop the ancient cellar of Weishan Island Winery. This matter could not be hidden from Xu Chunliang, although the ownership was in the hands of Mo Han.
, but if Xu Chunliang does not nod, their cooperation will definitely be difficult. Chen Qianfan is very aware of Xu Chunliang's local influence.
Xu Chunliang smiled and raised his glass: "I heard President Mo just now, and I wish you two a successful cooperation."
Chen Qianfan picked up his wine glass: "In the past, the success of something depended on the right time, place and people. Now it also needs the support of the local government."
Pu Jian said: "That's still Renhe."
Chen Qianfan smiled and said: "I mean the most important thing is the last one. I hope Director Xu, my brother Xu, will support me a lot."
Xu Chunliang said: "Old Chen, don't make fun of me. My current workplace is the Civil Affairs Bureau, and the affairs on Weishan Island have nothing to do with me."
Mo Han said: "Mr. Chen is not wrong to say that. Although your workplace is in the Civil Affairs Bureau, you have considerable influence in Dongzhou. From now on, Weishan Island will be included in the newly established Binhu New District. Meiru
You don’t know that Xue is going to be in charge of Binhu New District, right?”
Xu Chunliang believed that Mo Han brought this up in public to make fun of himself. It was true that he and Mei Ruxue were lovers in the past, but later they broke up. It was Mei Ruxue who took the initiative to contact them again.
We were somewhat unkind when we were together, but when had Mo Han, this girl, ever been kind?
Ye Qingya said: "Miss Mo is very well-informed. Xiaoxue's work arrangement has not been officially announced to the outside world, but you actually know it."
Mo Han smiled slightly: "I have a few friends in the system."
Ye Qingya said: "Although I don't work in the system, I know that some things are just rumors if they are not followed up for a day. There is no lack of precedents in the system for changes made overnight, and Xiaoxue has not decided whether to accept this position."
Ye Qingya realized that what Mo Han showed to Xu Chunliang was not in good faith, so she immediately stepped forward, and now she became Mei Ruxue's spokesperson.
Mo Han smiled and said, "I almost forgot that Miss Ye used to be Mei Ruxue's sister-in-law."
Xu Chunliang cursed secretly, this scheming girl is acting like a monster again, she really doesn't want to open any pot.
Ye Qingya was not angry at all, her expression was calm: "Xiaoxue and I have always had a very good relationship." It means don't stir up trouble here, and don't cause any trouble for Xu Chunliang.
Mo Han said: "It seems that Miss Ye neither understands Mei Ruxue nor the Qiao family."
Xu Chunliang and Chen Qianfan had been carrying wine for a long time, originally waiting for Mo Han to drink together, but now the focus was no longer on them. Although the fight between women was not as smoke-filled as that common among men, this kind of roundabout killing with hidden needles was also very exciting.
I feel thrilling.
Ye Qingya smiled and said: "It's not a bad thing to be a little confused. Maybe you will understand when Miss Mo lives to my age."
Mo Han smiled: "It seems that I have to be careful about my life."
Xu Chunliang glanced at Pu Jian, and Pu Jian raised his glass and said: "I suggest you all drink together. May our friendship last forever."
There is currently no friendship between Ye Qingya and Mo Han. Ye Qingya has always been friendly to people, but Mo Han didn't give her a good impression. On the way back, she couldn't help but ask: "How did you and Mo Han meet?"
Xu Chunliang briefly told how he got to know Mo Han, but it didn't go too deep. In his opinion, Mo Han and Ye Qingya had very little interaction, and he would try to avoid such an encounter today in the future.
Ye Qingya said: "Not many people know about Xiaoxue's return to Dongzhou. She must be particularly concerned about it."
Xu Chunliang said: "There is no airtight wall in the world. It's not surprising that she knows."
Ye Qingya said: "She likes you."
Xu Chunliang couldn't help laughing, Ye Qingya actually said it so directly.
Ye Qingya said: "I can see that the words she said today were deliberately irritating you."
Xu Chunliang smiled and said nothing. He knew Mo Han better than the average person. Mo Han said those words not out of jealousy. This woman had clear goals in doing things and was extremely resilient. She would not give up until she achieved her goals.
Ye Qingya wanted to say something, but she gave up when she reached her lips and reminded in a low voice: "You should be more vigilant about her, and don't be indifferent just because she is beautiful."
Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "Do you mind?"
Ye Qingya's pretty face suddenly turned red and she spat: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I care? You can date whoever you want to date. I remind you because I'm afraid you will suffer a loss."
Xu Chunliang said: "I thought you were jealous."
Ye Qingya was so embarrassed that her neck felt hot.
Xu Chunliang saw her embarrassment and immediately said, "Sister Qingya, I'm joking with you."
Ye Qingya punched him on the shoulder: "You brat, how dare you make fun of me."
Xu Chunliang burst out laughing.
Ye Qingya breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of her heart. She glanced at Xu Chunliang from the corner of her eyes and suddenly realized that she did have jealousy in her heart. How could this be? Could it be that... Ye Qingya didn't dare to continue thinking about it, lowered the window and let the autumn wind
Help your chaotic mind calm down quickly.
Xu Chunliang said: "Sister Qingya, I will take you back first, and then return to the studio."
Ye Qingya said: "No, just go to the studio and I'll drive back by myself."
Xu Chunliang said: "Leave that portrait with me for now. Don't tell anyone else about your trip to Duyun Temple today, including your family."
Ye Qingya was stunned for a moment, then nodded again. Since Xu Chunliang didn't let her speak, he had his reasons.
"Master Tonghui won't be in trouble, right?"
Xu Chunliang said: "I think he will be fine. Sister Qingya, just pretend that this never happened."
Early the next morning, Xu Chunliang went to see his godmother Lin Sijin. Lin Sijin was very happy to see him. She had recently started writing the beginning of a new book, and the theme was based on the changes in Huichun Hall.
Xu Chunliang first expressed his apology to her. After all, Mulan Group and Shennong Group have frequently received negative news recently. Both companies have entered the key support list of the Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine because of his recommendation. From this point of view,
, he brought some trouble to Lin Sijin.
Lin Sijin didn't mind this. She had been working in management for so many years, and she had never experienced anything like this. Although Mulan Group and Shennong Group had a certain element of human relations, their selection was also based on the conditions after layers of screening.
The problem is now being investigated and verified. If there is a problem, they will definitely be severely punished. But if there is no problem, they will be cleared.
Xu Chunliang chatted with Lin Sijin for a long time before getting to the point: "Godmother, do you know Qiao Yuanshan?"
Lin Sijin was stunned when she heard the name: "Qiao Yuanshan? Are you talking about Qiao Rulong's father?" Qiao Rulong's father is her in-laws, but this man has been missing for many years, and Lin Sijin has not heard of this name for a long time.
Xu Chunliang nodded and said, "That's him."
Lin Sijin said: "Of course we know each other. He and your godfather are friends who grew up together. I only met him after your godfather and I got married. Because he doesn't work in the capital, we don't have many opportunities to meet. But every time
When he comes back during the New Year holidays, we will make an appointment to get together."
Xu Chunliang said: "He has a good relationship with his godfather?"
Lin Sijin nodded and said, "Of course, your godfather was with the Qiao brothers and Wang Zhengdao when they were young. They even nicknamed themselves the Four King Kongs when they were young."
Xu Chunliang laughed. When he was young, he took out the portrait drawn by Ye Qingya from his bag and handed it to Lin Sijin: "Godmother, do you recognize this person?"
Lin Sijin took the portrait and looked at it for a while. Her expression looked a little confused: "I haven't seen it before. I shouldn't recognize it."
Xu Chunliang was startled. He had already determined that Monk Tonghui was Qiao Yuanshan. He thought that Lin Sijin would be able to identify him if he took out the portrait, but the result was disappointing.
"Take another look."
Lin Sijin looked at it for a while, then shook her head and said, "I've never seen him before. Who is this person?"
Xu Chunliang took the portrait back with some disappointment, but he could also understand that more than twenty years could turn a high-spirited young man into a middle-aged man with gray hair on his temples, not to mention someone like Qiao Yuanshan who has experienced ups and downs in life.
Lin Sijin had not met him often, so maybe she really couldn't recognize him.
Lin Sijin said: "Why did you show me this portrait?"
