Sole decision

There is no winter in Lucheng, and even when the months are up, there will be no cold feeling. The monsoon from Siberia has been weakened halfway, and it has no power when it arrives in Lucheng.

Zhou Ce missed the distinct four seasons, but he couldn't get away, so he wrote a letter to the teacher early, and attached the academic paper he wrote when he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and went through the suspension procedures.The words in the teacher's reply letter are quite a pity. His favorite student was originally going to finish his graduation defense at the end of next summer, and then embark on the same academic research path as him.But Zhou Ce's letter didn't mention the future, so he could only give up and tell Zhou Ce to live a good life.

The simple four words are the most difficult for Zhou Ce to do.

The election of the new president of the United Chamber of Commerce is coming soon, Zhou Ce did not represent the Zhou family in the election, but Liu Rui took the top spot, and Zhou Ce strongly agreed.This decision aroused other people's discussion. Zhou Ce evaded it by saying that he was still young and inexperienced, and it was already very difficult to manage the Zhou family's huge property, and he was really unable to take care of the chamber of commerce.

But—the key lies in this "but", the Zhou family can't have no one to come, Zhou Ang said very wittily that he can't do it, and the only seniority left is Liu Rui, the elder of the Zhou family.

At that time, several families were still sitting around the table discussing this issue. Wang Shijin was firmly opposed to it. He had always been aggressive and had a previous feud with Zhou Ce. Of course, Zhou Ce couldn't make things easier.While Wang Shijin was talking, Zhou Ce leaned back on the chair relaxedly, kept his hands on the table, and tapped his fingers rhythmically, without saying a word.

He didn't refute, didn't explain, and didn't look at Wang Shijin, just listening to it like this, it seemed that Wang Shijin had been talking for a long time and was a bit self-defeating.

"Zhou Ce, Lucheng has its own rules." Wang Shijin finally said, "You are not qualified yet."

After hearing this, Zhou Ce's gaze slowly shifted from between his own to Wang Shijin's face.He stared at Wang Shijin for a while, exhaled, raised his chin and said to Wang Shijin and everyone present: "But I have already made up my mind."

After speaking, he smiled, stood up and said, "Axue, let's go."

Pei Zhaoxue immediately followed behind Zhou Ce, and Zhou Ce left without looking back, leaving only one sentence.

"Whoever you want to follow and whoever wants to abandon, you can choose by yourself. But I don't think it doesn't matter if the Zhou family is gone. Take it easy, everyone."

Zhou Ce walked away, leaving a group of people staring at each other.It is true that several families check each other, but until now, everyone understands the importance of business interests.Even if there are some grievances and grievances, it is absolutely impossible to drive out any party.

Zhou Ce made it clear that he wanted to be a rascal, and barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes.Everyone had previously speculated that the Wang family was behind the tragedy of the Zhou family. Now seeing Zhou Ce's attitude, they could only persuade Wang Shijin to take a step back and make money with harmony.

Wang Shijin was furious and left the stage angrily, making everyone very embarrassed.As a result, within two days, Lu Ai invited Jin Rongda to dinner. During the dinner, Yingying Yanyan, Jin Rongda's face was flushed, and he was very happy.Unfortunately, his subordinates told him that he saw Mrs. Jin outside, and Jin Rongda immediately felt that something was wrong. It would be bad if his wife saw that he was not clear with other women outside.Lu Ai suggested that Jin Rongda hide for a while, escorted him to the underground parking lot and pretended to leave, and then went to the secret room of the hotel.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Zhou Ce.

"You..." Jin Rongda was taken aback for a moment, and immediately wanted to understand what kind of drama this was.

"The hotels and entertainment venues of Zhou's family are managed by my third brother. This hotel has just been acquired, so it's normal for Uncle Jin not to know much about it." Zhou Ce sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, and the The light was very dim, and there was a shadow under his eyes and the tip of his nose, making him look a little scary, "Uncle Jin, I want to talk to you about business."

"Business?" Jin Rongda is also a person who has seen the world. Since it is futile to struggle with others, it is better to relax, sit down and look at Zhou Ce, "What kind of business do you want to talk about?"

"The Wang family's business." Zhou Ce said, "If he can do it, then I can do it too, can't I? Do you know why the land that Wang Shijin and the overseas government jointly developed has been delayed until now?"

Jin Rongda said: "It's not because I can't figure out your surname is Zhou."

"Where?" Zhou Ce smiled, "At the beginning Wang Shijin persuaded my dad to buy shares, but my dad never agreed. This matter involves so many interests, how can our family decide life and death? I checked, Wang Shijin has not been able to get the relevant approval documents from our side, the reason why he came to persuade my dad is to force him by the joint chamber of commerce."

Lucheng's political and business relations have always been sensitive and ambiguous, with mutual needs and mutual fears, maintaining a delicately balanced relationship.If Wang Shijin wants to do big business, he needs to break this relationship, use all the power of the United Chamber of Commerce to force the approval, and open a preferential window for foreign trade.

"Wang Shijin's words sound good. There is no money to make money together. But if this project really makes him eat it, given his character, how can we still do it?" Zhou Ce suddenly changed his posture, pressing his elbows on his knees He leaned forward and approached Jin Rongda, "Uncle Jin, isn't the tragedy of our Zhou family not enough?"

"This...you mean..." Jin Rongda looked at Zhou Ce in surprise and doubt. Zhou Ce was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.Jin Rongda couldn't believe it: "Zhou Ce, the matter is very important, do you have evidence?"

Zhou Ce smiled wryly: "If I have evidence, I still have to go to such lengths to talk to you? Uncle Jin, I have no choice but to do this."

Jin Rongda thought for a while, then snorted and said, "Zhou Ce, your words are also nice. After Liu Rui was elected as the president of the union, isn't your Zhou family calling the shots? How can I know whether your promise is true or not? ?”

"Because I only talk about business, not about life and death. I won't do things like killing people. Uncle Jin, I heard that one of your lines has been blocked. May I help you find a way?" Zhou Ce said, "It just so happens that I I recently talked about a business deal, and there is a batch of goods coming in, Uncle Jin, please help me, I will give you this number. You can take your time to think about things that are too far away, and you must make money right now, right?" He raised his hand Finger, he believed that what he gave Jin Rongda was an irresistible number.

Zhou Ce didn't say anything to death, and Jin Rongda also understood what he meant. It's not suitable for him to stand in line now, and Zhou Ce didn't force him.They all know that the relationship is promoted through constant business contacts, Zhou Ce intends to cooperate to test the water, Jin Rongda does not need to be hypocritical, and agreed to Zhou Ce after a little thought.

It was precisely because of this relationship that Jin Rongda abstained from voting on the day of the election of the president of the federation, because even if he stood for Wang Shijin, it would not affect the result.Although the Bai family was determined to belong to the Wang family, the general situation was over, and Zhou and Lu joined forces to push Liu Rui to the seat of the chairman of the union.

Everything develops according to the established script of the story, but Liu Rui will still feel happy in his heart at that point. Zhou Ce is a young man with a bright future.That day when they were standing on the top floor of the company, Liu Rui patted Zhou Ce on the shoulder and told him that the whole Lucheng would belong to Zhou Ce.

Zhou Ce was very calm. Looking at the panorama of the city, he suddenly felt a little empty.

"Uncle Rui, is A Xue's birthday coming soon?" He said, "He said it was winter, and it snowed heavily on the day he was born."

"Yeah, it sounds like it's next week." Liu Rui said, "It turns out that when your father was here, you were the only one who celebrated Axue's birthday every year, and your brothers all had one every year."

"As long as I can remember, he has never given me a birthday." Zhou Ce said, "My brother and the others are not bad."

Liu Rui said, "So he loves you the most."

Before doing it, Zhou Ce must have scoffed at it.Now that he was standing in this position, he seemed to understand what Liu Rui meant.People like them can't have too obvious likes and dislikes, otherwise it's a kind of harm.That being the case, why does Zhou Xiangyun celebrate Pei Zhaoxue's birthday every year?Is it guilt or compensation for the fatherly love that Pei Zhaoxue lost since childhood, or something else?Zhou Ce couldn't understand, and he was a little bit sour.

"But Ah Xue doesn't seem to be too cold. There is never any extra content for birthdays, and I don't ask your father for anything." Liu Rui said, "It's just an extra bowl of longevity noodles."

"But my father is dead, what should he do?"

Liu Rui smiled: "Isn't there still you?"

"You're right." Zhou Ce was quite satisfied with the answer.He asked Liu Rui to help him vacate the Zhou family's most luxurious hotel in the city center. Liu Rui said that Zhou Ang was in charge of this matter, and all the hotel rooms had been booked out, so they couldn't be vacated.

"That's why I told you, this kind of thing can't be handled by the third brother." Zhou Ce said, "I will keep it until A Xue's birthday, and I will be useful."
