Chapter 5
Time flies, like a train, and in the blink of an eye it is already the end of three months later.
Today is a big day - the auspicious day for Anli Foreign Trade to pay salaries!
Look at this name, how it fits my name, Lin Si'an, making money quietly, safe and beautiful.
Pure British tycoon bloodline!
The modern office is lively.
"Brother Lin, look at your mouth corners almost grinning to your ears, do you have to use a sack to carry this month's bonus?"
Hao Meili, as her name suggests.
She was as beautiful as a painting, quiet and elegant with a bit of Western style. Her permed hair and LO-style professional women's clothing made her look like a fashionable white-collar worker who had traveled to the future!
Lin Sian glanced at her, then waved his hand and announced to his colleagues in the office:
"Okay, I'll treat you tonight. See you at Sichuan Restaurant. You can have as much twice-cooked pork as you want!"
"Wow, Brother Lin is awesome!"
When the colleagues heard that there was a free dinner, they cheered and jumped for joy.
Some of them even had a gleam in their eyes of "Look, this is the guy I just met today."
In this joyful atmosphere, discordant notes quietly came.
"Oh my, we're going to Sichuan Restaurant for a dinner with colleagues. Brother Lin, are you being a bit stingy?"
As soon as Yao Hongwen's weird voice sounded, the atmosphere in the office instantly became subtle.
"That's what I mean. We have to go to Quanjude anyway. That's what we call having face!"
Liu Kun also followed suit, his eyes rolling around, his round chin trembling. He was in his forties, but he still loved to join in the fun like a child.
Oh my god, Quanjude? ! You two are so wicked!
Lin Sian was speechless. He wanted to sing Zhou Xuan's "Silver Flower Flying" for himself.
But who is our Brother Lin?
He is a man who has seen many storms. He still keeps his signature smile on his face. In his heart, he has been silently thinking about how to teach these two guys a lesson...
There are several theories about the origin of the name "Quanjude".
One of them is that the boss Yang Quanren wanted to gather virtues and advertise himself as a virtuous businessman. At the same time, his name also has the word "Quan", so he named the store "Quanjude".
Another theory is that this name was chosen under the guidance of a Feng Shui master, implying auspiciousness and prosperity.
But the legend is reliable, sows climb trees.
This Quanjude Restaurant, a meal, has to spend a month's salary, heartache!
Now Lin Sian, with a monthly salary of 60 yuan, plus a bonus from business commission, can live a comfortable life.
But if he goes to Quanjude Restaurant for a leisurely time, he will have to sell everything he has, at least 100 yuan as a base, heartache index soars!
Lin Sian usually gets along well with his colleagues, like a family.
But recently, because Hao Meili got closer to him.
Yao Hongwen, who failed to pursue Hao Meili, felt like he had eaten a fly, and was very unhappy with Lin Sian.
Look at Liu Kun, the old man, a typical greedy man.
I heard that he took over the family property as soon as his brother died.
He also sold his brother's wife to a brothel, and even his eight-year-old nephew was not spared. It was a tragedy!
In the eyes of Lin Sian, a modern person who traveled through time, this behavior was simply insane and intolerable!
But then again, in the Republic of China, this kind of thing was not new.
It was common in the homes of wealthy families, and everyone was used to it, so they were not surprised.
But Lin Sian was not a pushover, and he was well prepared for today's dinner.
Facing the provocation of "Quanjude Restaurant" by Yao Hongwen and Liu Kun, he directly threw a "boomerang":
"Quanjude Restaurant? That is exclusive to the local tyrants, and I can't afford it as a small business.
"Let's be more economical and eat twice-cooked pork!
"If you two insist on going to Quanjude, then you have to pay for it yourself. I won't play with you."
After saying that, he snorted arrogantly. That expression was speechless!
"Lin Sian, he is a recognized handsome man, but I didn't expect that he is a 'stingy guy' in private!"
Yao Hongwen deliberately teased, trying to provoke him.
"I am stingy, so what? What can you do to me?"
Lin Sian raised the corner of his mouth and replied nonchalantly. His eyes clearly said "Come and bite me".
"You...you..."
Yao Hongwen was so angry that his face turned red and his fingers trembled.
He was shaking, but couldn't explain it.
Now he dug a hole and jumped into it, admitting to biting someone? That's like a dog!
Just when Yao Hongwen was embarrassed and wanted to dig a hole, Hao Meili stood up at the right time:
"Brother Lin, ignore him, he just likes to make trouble." Her words were full of favoritism for Lin Sian.
She also revealed her love for Sichuan cuisine, which was obviously to give Lin Sian a way out, and also secretly conveyed her attitude to Yao Hongwen.
Lin Sian came from the modern era, and her unique temperament naturally attracted the attention of new-age women, and Hao Meili was no exception.
Her approach made Lin Sian's days in the foreign company more colorful, and at the same time made Yao Hongwen jealous and confronted him everywhere.
"Did you hear that? Meili loves Sichuan cuisine. This dinner was proposed by her. If you don't like it, you don't have to come!"
Lin Sian smiled at Yao Hongwen. There was a bit of provocation in that smile, and it also cleverly blocked the mouths of others.
Yao Hongwen angrily said "Who cares?" and left angrily.
Lin Sian was secretly happy. He was just worried that he would not have a chance to deal with you. Now it's your own fault.
As night fell, Lin Sian led his colleagues to Sichuan Restaurant.
This old brand is good and cheap, and it is very popular.
Stir-fried pork with twice-cooked pork, mapo tofu, husband and wife lung slices... Colleagues started to eat and praised it.
During the meal, Lin Sian found an excuse to slip out.
A clone with a similar figure to Yao Hongwen quietly appeared out of everyone's sight.
This clone is Lin Sian's secret weapon, used to deal with various tricky situations.
He deliberately did not make the clone look exactly like Yao Hongwen, just to avoid unnecessary trouble.
After all, in this era, any abnormality may attract unnecessary attention.
The clone winked at Lin Sian and left quietly.
Lin Sian was thinking about the next plan in his mind.
How to make Yao Hongwen fall flat on his face, and how to gain a foothold in the foreign company?
All of this will be revealed one by one in the coming days.
