Mr. Lu's delicate bag

Chapter 87 Come Here

The two of them sat down and finished a bottle of wine. Han Shuda took a sip and took a selfie of the two of them with his phone. "Your sister-in-law asked me to report it, so I have to send her one."

After sending the message, his wife replied. As time went by, he became more and more excited. After waiting for several minutes, he ended the conversation with a string of kisses.

Han Shuda smiled and looked at his old friend, but in the dim light, Lu Shize was just quietly swiping his phone and drinking gloomily.

Han Shuda also picked up the wine he had poured for himself and clinked it with his glass.

"Shi Ze, do you know Qin Yuan? He's the one who works in steel..."

Hearing this, Lu Shize nodded, and Han Shuda continued, "He seems to have ideas about that food court too. I heard that he's looking for someone to contact me... Today I wanted to ask you for some advice. Do you know his background?"

Lu Shize was silent for a moment, picked up the wine and took another sip before putting it down. "He only deals in steel and has been doing it for 26 years. He has grown from small towns to hundreds of companies at home and abroad. He has the courage to do things. You are struggling whether to cooperate with him or not. Let's do it in three steps."

Han Shuda nodded, took out his cell phone and prepared to type some notes, "You tell me, I'll write it down."

"First, see if he's prepared to contribute financially or labor. You need to first examine his proposal. If he's only interested in providing financially and only wants to use your experience and achievements, then what percentage of his investment will he be willing to contribute? And what percentage of his rights will he seek later? Think carefully before discussing this.

The second step is to find out whether it was he who was interested in this food court and wanted to do something beyond his main business? Or was it one of his two sons or daughters who came up with the idea?

"He has two sons and a daughter?"

"Yes. When doing business or discussing cooperation, you must find out about the other party's family members.

No matter how powerful a businessman is, in front of his family, he is just an ordinary father or mother. There are many people who lose basic business judgment and pay the bill recklessly for their son or daughter. If this food court business is also like this, you have to pay more attention."

Han Shuda nodded quickly. Yes, after working in the steel industry for 26 years, he suddenly became interested in the layout of the food street. He had to find out what Qin Yuan really meant.

Maybe it was just an idea from one of his children? A sudden idea?

Even worse, perhaps he simply wanted to leverage his experience and connections to help one of his children grow? He thought it was a collaboration, but he might just be looking for an apprentice... and this apprentice might not be easy to communicate with or use.

Han Shuda frowned, "What about the third one?"

"Third, go to the Taoist temple and ask for a fortune."

"Ah?" Han Shuda didn't even finish typing before looking up at his old friend in shock.

Han Shuda really did not expect this suggestion. He saw Lu Shize slowly refilling the two people's glasses and motioning him to drink... After the two clinked their glasses and each took a sip, Lu Shize continued.

"You simply want to get to know him thoroughly before considering whether to cooperate with him. If so, how much responsibility he's willing to assume, and how much equity he'll share with him once the deal is done, right?"

Han Shuda nodded.

Lu Shize continued, "Rather than cooperating with him, you're actually thinking about how to refuse if you don't want to cooperate with him."

"Damn! You can even guess this?!"

"Well, his total assets are there. Even if you and he don't interfere with each other, your circle is so small and you have a lot of mutual friends.

It is certainly not a smart move to refuse directly.

Therefore, how to 'reasonably' reject him may be the key to this problem... Then follow the step 3 I mentioned.

If after doing 1 and 2, you are determined to refuse to cooperate, then go draw lots, find a Taoist priest who can interpret the words, and finally say that you cannot cooperate.

At that time, it will be the will of heaven and earth, the will of feng shui, and it will not be your will anyway."

Han Shuda digested it silently, and quickly wrote down this third step. He pressed the black phone and couldn't help but applaud, "Shi Ze, I knew you were good, but I never thought you were this good.

But, I must also thank you for teaching me and really treating me as a friend, oh no, as a brother!"

You know, if it weren't for Lu Shize, no one else in the world would tell me about a plan of this magnitude.

There are not many people who can think of this. Moreover, even if the other person has thought of it, why should he teach you step by step?

Moreover, teaching him might offend the other person involved in this matter. That person has a lot of assets and connections everywhere, so no one would take the initiative to get involved in this matter.

It could be a thankless task... Lu Shize treats himself as a real brother, that's why he does this.

Thinking of this, Han Shuda looked at Lu Shize with gratitude, "You are so awesome, helping me so sincerely, I... to be honest, before talking to you, my mind was a mess, but now it is completely clear.

Although a food street is not that important to me, I really benefited a lot today by learning from it.

If I were to propose such a laborious matter, asking for divination would be very easy, and I could use this as an excuse to reject him. Given his age, he would believe it deep down... This is a great idea! ! ! "

Lu Shize nodded and said, "Don't be too obvious, you are all old foxes."

"Okay, I understand," Han Shuda nodded quickly. The person he was about to face was indeed an old fox.

Later at night, the milk tea shop was not too busy and had hung up a closing sign in advance. Shen Jiaojiao sent a voice message to Lu Shize, "Uncle, I'm going to treat the milk tea shop employees to a midnight snack, so I should be back late. I'll message you when I get home. Don't wait for me. Don't worry, Aunt Xue and Uncle Qi are here, you should go to bed early."

Seeing his old friend put the phone to his ear and listen, a smile seemed to appear on the corner of his lips after he finished listening. Han Shuda reacted quickly, "Your Jiaojiao?"

"Yeah," Lu Shize replied indifferently, just lowering his head and typing away. Seeing this, Han Shuda felt that his old friend's condition seemed to be better than he thought. Would he feel better just by listening to the voice message?

What else does he need to accompany me, so he quickly stood up and said, "I'm sorry to bother you today, I have to go back now"...

When it was time to say goodbye, Han Shuda had already gotten into the car. He slid down the window and called out to Lu Shize, "Hey, don't just be smart in business... be smart in other things too."

This old friend really makes me worried. I wonder if he can understand me at all.

After seeing Han Shuda off, Lu Shize went upstairs and stayed in the study. Before, he had not checked Gu Sheng's information in detail, but this time, he sent a message to Special Assistant Chen, asking for all the information, and then called Butler Zhao in.

Butler Zhao brought the sobering tea and respectfully placed it before saying, "Sir, please ask..."

Lu Shize leaned back in his chair, eyes closed. When did this Gu Sheng show up? They'd run into each other at banquets before, but really, it seemed like his appearances had only increased since the last cruise.

On the way back from the cruise, the man surnamed Lu mentioned that there might be a love letter from his "male god" in Jiaojiao's 20th birthday gift. Then, Jiaojiao also received flowers from that man several times, and she had also worked as a summer intern in his company before.

If you think about it carefully, the two of them actually had some intersection a long time ago... and quite a lot of it.

Butler Zhao lowered his head silently, as if he could roughly guess what the master was going to ask tonight.

Sure enough, Lu Shize opened his eyes, "Gu Sheng... What is the connection between this person and Jiaojiao? Tell me everything you know."

Sure enough, he asked about this person. Lao Xue and he had thought of this person last time!

Butler Zhao said quickly, "Sir, I don't know much, but there is one thing we may know that you don't know... The last time the young lady went to our horse farm, Gu Sheng was there... He arrived later and brought a group of people with him.

At that time, Lao Xue was also sitting on the shuttle bus, going from one pavilion to another. Then, the young lady's classmate said, "Don't you like Gu Sheng?"

Not quite understanding the gentleman's expression, Butler Zhao just continued to report, "Old Xue told me this later, but we thought..."

"I understand. You continue..."

The most taboo thing when working for others is to talk too much, so even if they know some things, they will not gossip about them everywhere. Lu Shize did not mean to blame him and just let him continue.

"Not only that, they all took a group photo together at that time. Here, look..." As he said that, Butler Zhao quickly took out the photos that Aunt Xue had sent when she reported, and handed the phone to Lu Shize to look at.

In the group photo, Shen Jiaojiao stood in the middle of the crowd, with Lu Yanran on one side and Gu Sheng on the other.

The man took a look and asked, "Anything else?"

Butler Zhao immediately remembered what Old Xue had reported, that the eldest lady's lips had been swollen once before. Old Xue was scared to death at that time, because it was also on that night that the villa received the flowers sent by Gu Sheng for the first time.

But, do I really need to report this kind of thing to the gentleman?

Lu Shize understood a little bit as soon as he saw his expression, "...You can go out." Butler Zhao's expression immediately relaxed a lot, and he quickly bent down, "There is one thing, but..."

"I understand, go out."

Butler Zhao knew that Lu Shize was a reasonable and good boss, so he quickly said good night to him and told him to call him if he needed anything.

Maybe there is some intersection, but Butler Zhao may feel it is not appropriate to tell him... probably to respect Jiaojiao's privacy... so Lu Shize did not make things difficult for the other party.

Because he knew that something else was going to happen but he couldn't find out the details, the man felt annoyed for the first time. He picked up the tea and drank it, but found that the tea had no taste.

Finally, he got up, went downstairs to change his clothes, went to the yard, and went swimming.

Late at night, Aunt Xue glanced at the time and hurried to Shen Jiaojiao's side. Before she could say anything, Shen Jiaojiao understood and picked up her cup with a smile, "Aunt Xue, don't worry, I only drank a glass and a half of beer. It's okay, I'll be back now."

Shen Jiaojiao ordered a few more plates of barbecue and a few dozen drinks for the employees at the party, and then went to pay the bill. The manager hired by the milk tea shop, although only in her twenties, had started working early and had good organizational skills and the ability to mobilize the atmosphere. With her in charge of the party, Shen Jiaojiao felt relieved. She whispered a few words in her ear, said goodbye, and let them continue to have fun.

Shen Jiaojiao was helped into the car by Aunt Xue. Driver Qi fastened her seat belt. Fearing that the young lady had forgotten, he quickly reminded her, "Miss, don't forget to tell your husband that the party here is over and we are going back to the villa. Don't let him worry about her."

Shen Jiaojiao knew that after she reported it, Lu Shize must have been worried, so he instructed the housekeeper, and then the housekeeper instructed driver Qi... She nodded and called the man.

Lu Shize only swam two rounds before getting out of the water. He felt uncomfortable all over and his heart felt empty. He picked up his phone and found that there was a missed call from Shen Jiaojiao.

Lu Shize quickly wiped the water off his face, wrapped a large towel around his upper body, and dialed the phone.

Shen Jiaojiao leaned on Aunt Xue's shoulder. She had drunk some wine, but she was not very drunk. She was just too tired, so she just did whatever she felt comfortable with.

As soon as I answered the phone, I said lazily and coquettishly, "Uncle, I seem to be drunk"...

"Drunk?! You weren't... How much did you drink?"

Shen Jiaojiao would never tell the truth about how much she drank. She just said, "Uncle, I'm not feeling well. My stomach hurts a little and I'm very sleepy. Can I stay at your place?"

It will be more convenient for me to go to class tomorrow... Oh, forget it! I've already been there today, you definitely won't agree..."

"Jiaojiao..."

It's not that he won't agree, it's just... How could he get drunk after having a midnight snack? Few people feel comfortable when they are drunk, not to mention that the party lasted so late, Shen Jiaojiao would definitely be back at the villa even later... But, the two of them were separated, if they came to live here...

Shen Jiaojiao laughed foolishly a few times, "Uncle, don't worry, I won't go over there. I'm very sensible! I want to be independent! Hey, I'm the most independent!

I will do a lot of business, make a lot of money, and drink a lot of wine... Hey, hang up, I'm going to take a nap... I feel dizzy and my head feels heavy."

"Come here"

Listening to the child laughing foolishly and emphasizing his independence, I feel dizzy and dizzy now. It is really not suitable for me to stay in the car. I feel sorry for him just thinking about dozing off all the way back.

Come over...

How come by drawing a clear line, I end up being the one who doesn't care about the child's feelings at all?

Lu Shize regretted and blamed himself.

However, Shen Jiaojiao didn't answer Lu Shize at all...

Pretend to be drunk, then get closer... This strategy has been used so many times in novels, and Shen Jiaojiao feels that she has used it very well.

Moreover, there is another trick, which is to be willing to accept but also to refuse, and then you can’t say it yourself first...

If I wasn’t dizzy, I really wanted to give my forehead a big thumbs up.

He actually asked me to pass!!!

Shen Jiaojiao was so happy that she almost opened her eyes and said thank you a thousand times to the person on the other end of the phone. Fortunately, she was too excited last night and thought about many specific strategies over and over again. She also reminded herself not to let the secret slip.

So, no matter how happy Shen Jiaojiao was, she tried her best to hold it back, biting her lips hard to prevent herself from making a sound.

The man didn't even hear Shen Jiaojiao's excited voice, or any sound at all. He was wondering when, after several seconds, Aunt Xue's low voice came, "Sir, the lady is too dizzy, her phone just slipped... So now it means we..."

"You bring her here and take good care of her on the way. Make sure to protect her and make sure she doesn't get hurt."

Even when making a phone call, the phone slipped and fell. How dizzy would that make the man feel? When he thought of Shen Jiaojiao's drunken appearance, he felt so distressed.
