Lin Huayin didn't ask how Xiao Zheng hooked up with Xu Dongqing. She also didn't ask why Xu Dongqing was so willing to let Xin Ao benefit. The reason was because Xu Dongqing was recommended by Xiao Zheng. He was the one who made it happen. Just like Xiao Zheng's private affairs. If he didn't say it, she wouldn't ask.
It was clear that Lin Huayin's attitude towards Xiao Zheng had extended from her simple private life to her strict work.
"You haven't announced what happened to Geng Sang and the others, right?" Xiao Zheng asked as he ate.
"I'll announce it when the situation stabilizes," Lin Huayin said calmly.
"Mm. Although I really wanted you to say it earlier to show my absolute authority in Xin Ao, announcing it too early will affect the morale of the army. " However, announcing it too early will affect the morale of the army. "Xiao Zheng took the initiative to pick up a piece of pork rib for Lin Huayin and smiled. "In the next high-level meeting, I can replace Geng Sang and sit on your right, right?"
Lin Huayin looked up and stared at Xiao Zheng meaningfully. "Why don't you take my seat?"
Geng Sang and the others had indeed left. The overseas department that Xiao Zheng was in charge of had indeed contributed greatly to Xin Ao. But if she promoted Xiao Zheng to the number three position because of this. It would affect the overall situation. It would be unfair to the old officials. Especially when even Ma Choi Jun, who had helped expand Xin Ao's territory, was only ranked sixth. How could Xiao Zheng, who was ranked eighth, soar to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with Blue Heart, sitting on Lin Huayin's left and right hand?
Lin Huayin's work style was forceful and sharp. She also adhered to the company's philosophy of rewarding and punishing. But she didn't blindly dictate. She had to balance all the higher-ups and maintain stability. Lin Huayin definitely wouldn't mistreat the elite department that had made great contributions to the overseas department. However, she definitely wouldn't spoil the seedlings through excessive enthusiasm and sit on the left and right hands like Xiao Zheng had said.
"Then forget it." Xiao Zheng waved his hand and smiled awkwardly. "I can't even read the financial statements. I should just focus on being my overseas minister."
The two chatted as they ate, and the meal soon came to an end. Xiao Zheng cooked, and Lin Huayin took the responsibility of cleaning the kitchen. After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Xiao Zheng wanted to curl up on the sofa and watch a variety show. However, he was summoned by a call from Lu Dashan. It was called drinking tea, but in reality, it was not a good thing.
"Elder Lin, Uncle Lu asked me out for tea. I'll go sit for a while, "Xiao Zheng shouted towards the kitchen.
"Yeah," Lin Huayin, who was busy in the kitchen, responded calmly. He didn't ask any more questions.
He arrived at the Lu family's house. Lu Dashan had already set up the array. The tea was fresh, sweet and delicious. The tea set was a high-grade product that Xiao Zheng wouldn't be willing to buy even if he was beaten to death. It was said that in ancient times, this was the private collection of the royal family. They wouldn't even be willing to share it with their guests.
Xiao Zheng sat down and took a sip of the freshly brewed tea. He squinted his eyes and smacked his lips. "1,800 taels?"
"Just double the price if it's converted to US dollars," Lu Dashan said proudly. "Ordinary camellias bloom twice a year. My tea blooms once every three years. There are people serving it 24/7. And they're all young girls. It can be said to be a collection of the essence of heaven and earth, and the fragrance of beautiful women. The flower is called Beauty Tea. Taste it again. Is there any body fragrance that wafts into your nose? "
Xiao Zheng felt a chill run down his spine. He glanced sideways at Lu Dashan and said, "Aren't you afraid that Big Sister Qin will punish you?"
"She can do that?" Lu Dashan said stubbornly.
"Forget it," Xiao Zheng said angrily. "You only know how to act tough in front of me. Tell me, what do you want from me? "
"Look at what you're saying. Can't I just drink tea with you? "Lu Dashan said slyly. "Since when did Uncle Lu become this kind of person in your heart?"
Xiao Zheng ate a few melon seeds and muttered, "I've been very busy lately. I don't have the time to chat with you."
"Busy with the Phantom series?" Lu Dashan said with a smile. "Speaking of that, you have to thank my Qi 'er. If it weren't for her advertising, how could your sales be so good? "
"Yes, I have to thank Qi 'er. But what does it have to do with you? "Xiao Zheng said with a smirk. "What? Don't tell me that you want to get a piece of the pie because we're selling so well?"
"Nonsense." Lu Dashan straightened his back. "How could Uncle Lu care about your little tricks?"
"Little tricks?" Xiao Zheng said boldly. "Within three years, the Phantom brand will dominate Hua Xia. It will become a world-class brand. "
Lu Dashan said with a smirk, "You're a man. Don't you think it's shameful to sell women's products to make a fortune? Sigh, you've been in the rouge industry for too long. You've lost your masculinity. "
"— —" Xiao Zheng was so angry that he almost splashed a cup of hot tea on Lu Dashan's face. He rolled his eyes and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. "If you have something to say, just say it. I should go home."
"What's the hurry?" Lu Dashan said teasingly. "Good advice is unpleasant to the ear but beneficial to the action. What Uncle Lu said to you was from the bottom of his heart. Why don't you know what's good for you? "
Seeing that Xiao Zheng was about to go berserk, Lu Dashan quickly waved his hand. "Fine, fine, if you don't like it then I won't say it. This time, Uncle Lu called you here not for anything else but to give you a warning. "
"What do you mean?" Xiao Zheng's face showed a confused expression.
"You've met Xiahou Wu and Zhao Chuan right?" Lu Dashan said bluntly.
"Yes." Xiao Zheng nodded.
"You've screwed them badly this time. It's said that Xiahou De that old man has locked his precious son up. The one billion you've slandered has been used for charity. I don't want it anymore. "Lu Dashan said with a smirk. "You've unintentionally caused the Xiahou family to suffer a great loss. Do you think they'll hold a grudge against you? "
"There are many people who hold a grudge against me. Who does he think he is?" Xiao Zheng said with a smile.
"In normal times, you have nothing to be afraid of. After all, with your mother-in-law backing you up, no one would dare to do anything to you, "Lu Dashan said with a smile. "But Phantom was created by you. Aren't you afraid that they'll slander your Phantom? "
Xiao Zheng frowned and pressed, "Is that your guess, or did you get wind of it?"
"I'm not on the same page as him. He naturally won't inform me what he wants to do, "Lu Dashan said with a smile. "I'm just giving you a warning. Don't get carried away just because of some small results. There's still a long way to go. "
"Even if I get carried away, Old Lin will give me a slap to wake me up." Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette and rubbed his glabella. "That woman's level is too high. I earned nearly a hundred million for Xin Ao in a day, but she didn't react at all."
"A hundred million?" Lu Dashan said with a shake of his head. "Although that ice maiden of yours isn't determined to rely on her family, she has been influenced by people who stand at the pinnacle like Ye Yuhua since she was young. She has high standards. How could she be blinded by this bit of success? "
"From the looks of it, I'm still too much of a country bumpkin," Xiao Zheng said wistfully.
"It's good for young people to have drive. If you were as indifferent as Lin Huayin, you probably wouldn't have the motivation to work hard if you had three meals a day, "Lu Dashan said with a smile. "According to my observations, Lin Huayin treats Ye Yuhua as a target to pursue. Compared to Ye Yuhua, who is at the pinnacle, you are just ants at the foot of the mountain. You will be blown off the cliff at any moment. You won't be able to withstand a single blow. "
Xiao Zheng nodded in thought and mumbled, "From the looks of it, setting a lofty goal helps in showing off."
Lu Dashan smiled. He seemed to be nonchalant, but he was actually quite serious. He asked, "Zheng, you don't blame me, do you?"
"Blame you?" Xiao Zheng wore a perplexed look.
"It's what happened before," Lu Dashan said with a serious expression. "Old Li and I planned to use Ye Yuhua's influence to break the stalemate and leave you at the police station."
"Without your little scheme, I wouldn't have known that my mother-in-law is already so awesome," Xiao Zheng joked. "Besides, Minister Li personally went to the headquarters to accompany me. Look at my face. Do I look like such a petty person? "
"Definitely not," Lu Dashan said with a naughty smile.
"When I become famous in the future, I'll pull you out and whip your corpse," Xiao Zheng said fiercely.
"I'll be waiting." Lu Dashan retorted, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Could this kid rise to the top?
Did he have the right to fight Lin Chaotian head-on?
Lu Dashan, who had lived in seclusion for more than ten years, felt excited just thinking about it. Lin Laoyao, Lin Laoyao, you've been scheming your whole life. You've never thought that you would have such a stubborn son-in-law, right?
