"Mr. Dong, do you think it's time to settle the payment for the batch of goods your company imported from Zhisheng three months ago?"
"Hey, didn't the finance department send you the money?"
"No."
"Then let me urge you."
"Mr. Dong, you said the same thing last time I came here, but after I went back and waited for several days, there was no movement."
"Is there such a thing?"
"Yes, yes."
"Well, I have a meeting to hold right now. After I finish the meeting, I will ask the finance department about the situation. Can we find a place to eat in the evening and chat while we eat?"
Wang Manni was stunned on the spot. She couldn't understand the meaning of the other party's words.
…
"Follow, right? If you want to, just follow."
"Mr. Lu, we really need this money urgently. If you don't pay, going to court will affect your business."
"Little girl, have you ever heard of a saying that debts are too much to bear? Ask your legal department to sue me."
"Mr. Lu, can you please stop embarrassing a small employee like me? If I don't get the money today, I will be fired from the company. You see, I came to Shanghai from a small place and finally found a job."
"Your name is Wang Manni, right? Don't cry miserably with me. Apart from the old men sitting in the courtyard, who can have it easier these days? My payment is still in arrears. If you have the ability, help me get it back. When you come back, I will pay Zhisheng immediately, and not only that, I will also give you a small commission."
…
"Come on, little girl, you must be hungry after sitting here for a long time. Come and eat something together. Although there is no decent food, it can fill your stomach at least."
"Old man, can you give us an accurate confirmation of when your son will be back?"
"You want accurate information? I also want accurate information. This little brat didn't come back until August 15th. He told me that he was too busy negotiating a deal at the Jack Daniel's Distillery in Scotland. , no time. Does he really think I can’t search the Internet? I can’t use a smart phone and there’s Jigglypuff next door. The Jack Daniel’s Distillery is from the United States, not in Scotland at all. He keeps talking about ten sentences every day. Eight sentences are false, and one sentence is half-truth.”
…
It had been more than a month since she returned to Shanghai, and she had to pay back three arrears in total. The day after tomorrow was the deadline for the task given to her by Frank. However, let alone getting the money back, she didn't even have any idea.
Jenny complained many times that Frank was making things difficult for her, because the tasks given to her were all long-delayed and had a high probability of being scrapped.
But what if he knew he was deliberately making things difficult?
While walking on the street, I suddenly looked up and found that I had unknowingly arrived at the street where Xiaoshanmen Cafe was located.
Counting on his fingers, the two of them had not contacted each other for a long time. In the past, it was Jiang Chen who took the initiative to talk to her, but for some reason, he felt a little depressed these days and stopped posting photos of new products in WeChat Moments.
Of course she won't take the initiative to contact him because she wants to maintain her goddess persona.
But today, there was a special impulse that drove her to walk into the coffee shop.
Nothing has changed, the decoration, displays, and the aroma of coffee beans are all the same.
Jiang Chen was stunned when he saw that it was her who entered the door.
"Why do you look surprised? Are you surprised to see me?" Wang Manni found a table and sat down.
"No."
Jiang Chen shook his head, looked at her with a complicated expression, and made a cup of coffee and brought it over as before.
"When I returned home, I realized how delicious the coffee you made was."
Wang Manni picked up the coffee cup and took a sip. She frowned and felt that the taste was much worse than what she drank before.
"Jiang Chen, your skills have deteriorated."
Jiang Chen said: "The craftsmanship has not deteriorated, but the good coffee beans are gone."
"What? Is it because the sales are not good and we don't buy more high-quality coffee beans?"
"Roughly the same."
He said something casually and saw the back door open and the waitress walking in with a bucket of coffee beans. He told her that she still had some work to do and left.
Wang Manni picked up the cup and took two sips. At this time, the waitress put the coffee beans and walked out from the counter and sat down on the chair opposite her.
"We got the certificate."
Wang Manni's hand shook and she almost spilled the coffee.
"When did this happen?"
"Just half a month ago, the wedding was scheduled for the day after Christmas. You must come then." The waitress looked happy.
Wang Manni's expression was a little unnatural, but she still refused to admit defeat: "Okay, I will definitely give you a big red envelope when the time comes."
At this time Jiang Chen came over and asked, "How big is it?"
The waitress took his hand with an angry expression on her face.
…
A week later.
Boheng 55 Club.
Wang Manni met Party B in the contract, who was also Wei Zhijie, the president of Zhisheng Group.
She came with timidity and even walked a little unsteadily. The reason was simple. She was fired by Frank. In other words, she lost the bet with Wei Zhijie.
At first, she was very ambitious and wanted to return to Misia's store standing up. However, after almost two months of injecting blood, she had to face the result of lying in front of Wei Zhijie.
In the TV series, if it weren't for Ye Yiyi's help, she would have been fired by Frank as early as the 17th day after joining the company. Ye Yiyi did not show up here, but Zheng Lili paid the 100,000 yuan payment and helped her through the first 17 days. Then, she survived the second 17 days, but on the third 17 days, she still did not escape, and was opened by Frank, who had been looking for trouble.
"Mr. Wei."
"Here?" Wei Zhijie sat on the chair in front of the bar and said without looking back.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't complete the task you gave me."
Wei Zhijie pushed her a glass of whiskey: "No need to say sorry, we signed a contract, each has his own choices."
"Mr. Wei, I think... can you give me two more days?"
"What? Still unwilling to admit defeat?"
"No, I think..."
"You want to get the evidence of Frank's corruption and fraud, don't you? He makes things difficult for you about collecting money, so you want to bite him back, right?"
Wang Manni looked shocked: "Do you know about Frank?"
"There is a saying that if the water is clear, there will be no fish. Frank has been in the sales department for many years, and the people under him have benefited more or less. Do you think I don't want to replace him? But the cost is too high at present. Now the group as a whole It is said to be profitable, but if we touch him, it will lead to a series of cases, which may damage our vitality, so we can only do it step by step."
Wang Manni suddenly realized: "No wonder he always made things difficult for me and was on guard when he saw me coming there with the recommendation letter from the CEO's office. It turns out he knew that his situation was not good. Mr. Wei, you expected this before you sent me there. I have to fight with those old guys, and I also have to compete with department leaders and colleagues."
Wei Zhijie took a sip of wine and said, "Are you making excuses for your failure?"
Wang Manni stopped talking.
"According to the agreement, if you don't last three months, you must be my personal assistant."
"..."
Wang Manni didn't know what to say, because the rights and obligations of both parties were stated in black and white in the contract. If she was an honest person, she would be Wei Zhijie's personal assistant from now on.
She is said to be a personal assistant, but in fact she is a prostitute, the kind who will give up at any time when she has had enough fun. She is not as high as Xiaobai, the lover of the wine merchant Mr. Cheng.
"But things have changed now."
Wang Manni was stunned when she heard this: "What do you mean?"
"Just before you were fired by Frank, someone bought the Misia store from me. Because the basic conditions changed, the contract lost its meaning."
Was the Misia store bought by someone else? Two people changed hands in just three months. What happened? Although... she doesn't have to be Wei Zhijie's personal assistant anymore, she feels a little uncomfortable no matter how she thinks about it, because she came with the idea of taking a gamble and admitting defeat, but she didn't realize it.
"Mr. Wei..."
"Although the Misia store has been bought by someone else, the position of deputy store manager is yours."
Wang Manni was surprised at first, and then overjoyed: "Thank you, Mr. Wei."
In her opinion, to achieve such a result, Wei Zhijie must have spoken kindly to her in front of the new owner of Misia's store.
"Don't thank me." Wei Zhijie said, "It was the new owner of the Misia store who asked you to be the deputy store manager."
Wang Manni was startled again, thinking that there were so many strange things happening every year, especially this year. How did the new owner of Misia's store know about her? Are you still sure she can be a good deputy store manager?
"You still don't know who bought the Misia store from me, right?" Wei Zhijie looked into her eyes and said a name.
Wang Manni's facial features, including her eyes, were frozen as if she had been hit hard.
"He...how could he?"
It took a long time for her to come back to her senses. She seemed to be asking herself, but also looking to Wei Zhijie for confirmation.
"The new owner of the twin villas, the Li family is so angry that they dare not speak out. Since he has set his sights on Misia's store, I don't want to antagonize him because of this matter. Besides, the price he gave is very fair."
After Wei Zhijie finished speaking, he looked at her deeply.
Wang Manni knew that there were some things he didn't say------I don't know whether that person is interested in Misia's store or you? But whether it's Misia's store or you, I don't want to fight with that person, because the price is too high and I can't afford it.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor on the left, and a human face flashed out, accompanied by a question.
Wang Manni was sitting near the right corner of the bar. She didn't see who it was, but that voice... she was very familiar with it.
PS: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
Don't rush to express your opinion. The Wang Money chapter was originally intended to be condensed into two chapters, but it ended up taking one chapter~囧~
