I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 301 One Family After Another Family
I drove the "Jimny" I bought from Chen Jin, and took Chen into a bank near the ancient city. I took 26 cash from the bank, put it in my bag, and then went to print The store printed out the revenue details of the temporary inn some time ago; and the money was the share agreed with Cao Jinbo at the beginning.

The reason I had to give him cash was because people like him were numb to numbers.Although the 26 yuan is nothing to him, it still has some visual impact when it is turned into cash and given to him.

Chen Jin looked at my leather bag full of money, and said to me with admiration: "Mi Gao, if you don't see the money, you don't think...you are really awesome, and you have only been in Dali for less than a month. In just one year, I have earned all the money I have spent working in Shanghai for several years!"

I smiled and replied: "As long as you are willing to jump out of that circle, you can too... To be honest, we are on the same starting line now, and it is hard to say who will be higher and who will be lower in the future."

Chen Jin also smiled and said: "We are a cooperative relationship... I don't want to compete with you..."

"That's a win-win situation."

"Win-win is a good word!"

……

After getting in the car, Chen Jin suggested to me again: "Take your girlfriend to Tina's place for a drink tonight?"

"We have our own bar, why do we keep drinking at Tina's?"

Chen Jin replied: "Tina's place is so lively... Besides, Tina and I have always had disputes. She thinks that Easterners are not as good-looking as Westerners. I have to bring your girlfriend there to show her. Who said we don't have top-notch ones here? Beauty!"

"Aren't you competing with each other!"

"It's really not a contest, it's related to the reputation of our race, it's the righteousness of the clan!"

"I've convinced you, what the hell can rely on the righteousness of the clan!"

"Don't you think such a thing is interesting?... Tina said, if I can really bring over an oriental beauty who can convince her, we will be free of charge as much as we drink!"

I looked at Chen Jin and asked, "Have you experienced what despair is?"

"what?"

"Ye Zhi has a quarter of western blood, she is of mixed race."

Chen Jin stared at me blankly, and replied after a while: "No wonder her nose is so straight... In other words, our facial features are still not as three-dimensional as those of foreigners!"

I ignored him, and he said again: "Go ahead... Anyway, Ye Zhi is more inclined to look Chinese. If she doesn't say it herself, who knows that she is of mixed race."

"Could you take care of Cao Jinbo's shop first, and then think about these messy things?"

Chen Jin smiled coyly, and replied: "This is called work and entertainment... Don't strain your nerves too much... Let me tell you, I will call Nicole tonight, and those of us in Dali will , like a family, including your daughter-in-law...I think she has a cold personality, we need the strength of the family to melt her..."

To be honest, Chen Jin really talked a lot of nonsense, but the last sentence really hit me... I saw a change in a trance.

When I first came to Dali, I, Tie Nan, Director Ma, Bai Lu, Tao Zi, and Yang Sisi were the only one family; now it seems to have changed, the former family has gradually gone away; beside me are Chen Jin and Nicole , Brother Ping, Cao Xue, even Tina became a family, and Ye Zhi...

I couldn't help thinking: What kind of power is it that can make the relationship between the characters around me change so much?

When I was so distracted, Chen Jin suddenly yelled at me: "Mi Gao, watch the road, watch the road... there is a child in front."

I subconsciously slammed on the brakes, and the car barely stopped in front of the little boy, and I was shocked into a cold sweat...

I wiped my face heavily with both hands, then opened the car door and got out of the car, and said "I'm sorry, I'm sorry" to the little boy's mother several times; I was able to take good care of the child, and then accepted my apology.

But I couldn't slow down for a long time. If I really bumped into it just now, it would be a real sin, and a sin that can't be redeemed in my life... I was afraid, and I felt that this was fate. The warning given to me in the book made me live cautiously and treat everyone around me cautiously.

……

When we came to "No. [-] Courtyard", the waiter and I reported the number of the private room, and the waiter ushered us in; when we opened the door, Cao Jinbo and Ye Zhi, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, had arrived. They were drinking tea and chatting, watching There is no contradiction in appearance.

Of course I know, these are just superficial.

I introduced Chen Jin to Cao Jinbo, and after greeting each other, Chen Jin and I found a seat and sat down; Ye Zhi and I were next to each other, and Chen Jin sat next to Cao Jinbo.This dude is really courageous. He has heard of Cao Jinbo's reputation, but he doesn't act very awkward... What I appreciate is his communication skills and his neither humble nor overbearing style. He is definitely a talent for public relations .

Cao Jinbo smiled and asked me: "Mi Gao, there is something I want to clarify. Is today's meal invited by you, or by Mr. Ye?"

I also smiled and replied, "Is there any difference, Mr. Cao?"

Cao Jinbo nodded: "If Mr. Ye invites you, then what we're talking about today is between me and Mr. Ye; if you invite..." Cao Jinbo paused intentionally.

I hastened to catch up and said, "Today's meal is my sincere invitation to Mr. Cao, and it's time for us to meet!... During the Chinese New Year, the temporary inn can be opened in Jiulongju, which is completely dependent on your support. I also kept my promise and brought over your share."

As I spoke, I handed the leather bag containing more than 20 yuan in cash and the revenue details to Cao Jinbo.

Cao Jinbo glanced at me, then signaled his followers to put the money away, but he didn't care about the revenue details.

I reminded again: "Mr. Cao, don't you want some?"

Cao Jinbo replied: "This is not what I value. For me, this is a windfall."

Cao Jinbo took a sip of water, and said again: "Whether this meal is invited by you or Mr. Ye, the name is the same...but I hope it is Mr. Ye."

Ye Zhi replied calmly: "Mr. Cao, do you really want to separate the two of us?"

Cao Jinbo still had a smile on his face and said: "Mr. Ye, don't get me wrong, I don't have such an idea... I just think that I will be more useful if Mr. Ye can invite me to dinner... because I do have business on my side." I want to talk to you about it."

Surprisingly, Ye Zhi looked at me first, and then replied: "Since Mr. Cao cares so much about the order of priorities, you should talk to Mi Gao first... He asked you to make an appointment for this meal because of business things."

I understood what Ye Zhi meant by saying this, so as soon as she finished speaking, I was thinking about the countermeasures in my brain: How can I persuade Cao Jinbo to give me the 16 sets of shops in "Jiulongju".

However, when Cao Jinbo spoke again, I realized how superfluous my thoughts were.

Cao Jinbo stopped me who was about to speak, and then said to Ye Zhi in a serious manner: "Mr. Ye, we are smart people who don't talk in secret, I know what you are going to have this meal with me this time... I, Cao Jin Bo is a person who is very willing to cultivate younger generations... I can use the shop at Jiulongju for Mi Gao without any additional conditions. Our local entrepreneurs have a way out... Everyone knows that your group's industries are spread all over the world, but those of us entrepreneurs who were born in Dali and can't go out, can only eat the mountains and rivers of Dali... So , Cangshan Yishu project, I hope your group can hold your hands high, so you don't get involved!... Will it succeed?"

At this moment, I can't express what I feel in my heart!It turned out that I was just a small role in Cao Jinbo's eyes, and the meaning of my existence was just a bargaining chip he could use to negotiate terms with Ye Zhi.

Suddenly, the gap between Ye Zhi and me became more three-dimensional; we can never play the same role in this world, even if we are a couple!
