Getting the best from Tarkov

Chapter 14 Company Dinner

Since moving to this small office, Liao Fan found that the attitudes of people in the company towards him had become a little strange.

It's not respect, nor fear... maybe a little curiosity.

But what was he curious about?

After moving to the office, Liao Fan not only found it easier to trade stocks, but he also secretly downloaded Escape from Tarkov on his computer.

It's not that I play games at work, but whenever I have some free time, I go to the flea market, buy two golden eggs and smash them.

This is a new bug he discovered.

He can sell things at the flea market and then sell them to the aunties, so that he has a constant supply of golden eggs.

Not everything is for sale though.

For example, antique vases and the like are rarely seen on the market.

Moreover, Liao Fan also discovered that the items exchanged for so-called antique vases or antique teapots were not necessarily valuable, or the specific value of the items exchanged was very unstable.

A few days ago, he sold an antique teapot, but when he got it, he found out it was a large stainless steel teacup...

This thing... Never mind, I won’t talk about it anymore...

However, Liao Fan also discovered a pattern, that is, the same thing taken out at the same time can be transformed into a pair or a group.

For example, the twin teapots.

He had confirmed this with the system; it was not just a random guess.

Therefore, Liao Fan has not extracted any vase or teapot recently.

He planned to collect 10 and see if the converted items would be more valuable due to the increased quantity.

After checking the time, Liao Fan thought that nothing should happen at this moment, so he ran to the bathroom, took out the nine converted golden eggs one by one and smashed them.

At this moment, Liao Fan realized that he had really underestimated the shamelessness of the system.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining:

Military skills - weapon cleaning and maintenance, simple electronic parts repair, basic armored vehicle driving, helicopter driving proficiency

Life Skills - Advanced Cooking (Manchu-Han Banquet), Proficient in Russian, Proficient in Japanese, Intermediate Motor Vehicle Driving, Elementary Tricycle Driving.

By smashing the golden eggs, Liao Fan has almost learned several of the world's most commonly used languages. He has also learned to ski, surf, drive, and ride a tricycle...

His military skills have now been improved to include armored vehicle and helicopter driving.

What are these skills for?!

A man complained in the bathroom for a long time, and finally felt a little bored. But just when he was about to open the door to go out, he vaguely heard Wang Yi's voice coming from outside.

"Boss Wang, are you sure this medicine works? Why does the packaging look so unreliable..."

"...Okay, two or three drops at a time, right..."

"Huh? Can't put it in the wine? That's bullshit! Where else can I put it if not in the wine? Should I just put it in someone's mouth?"

“...Okay, okay, I get it.” Dong.

After hearing the door close, Liao Fan stayed in the bathroom for about 5 minutes before coming out of the cubicle.

Listening to what Manager Wang said just now, did he buy some medicine? Why does something feel a little strange...

With Liao Fan's current emotional intelligence, he didn't figure out what was wrong until he returned to the office.

And time passed by in a daze and it was 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

Just when Liao Fan was about to pack up and get ready to go home, he suddenly saw a message in the company group.

"Everyone, tomorrow is Friday. Does anyone want to go to team building after get off work?"

"Colleague A: Sure, sure. What's the project this time?"

"Colleague B: That's fine, but let's not go back for the Hakka cuisine we had last time. I wasn't used to it..."

"Colleague C: Yes, yes, yes, I'm really not used to that. Let's not eat Cantonese food anymore. I don't know what the chairman was thinking last year. He ate Cantonese food almost every time."

"Colleague Ding: No, is your focus so low? Shouldn't you focus on what happens after dinner?"

......

After seeing that they were discussing dinner, Liao Fan lost interest.

Liao Fan has been in the company for more than three years, and it seems he has only attended a dinner party once.

That was the first month after he arrived at the company. After the meal, he found out that it was AA and not the boss's treat. Since then, Liao Fan has never been to the company again.

He doesn't have many friends anyway, so it doesn't really matter whether he goes or not.

Just when Liao Fan was about to ignore it as usual, he saw a message from Chen Yanfang.

"Xiao Fan, do you have anything to do tomorrow night? If not, why don't you go too?"

"Manager Chen, I don't understand. Why do you want me to go?"

"...Let me put it this way, you have a mission tomorrow. Listen carefully, whether it's dinner or the two games tomorrow, tell me the total cost, and I'll reimburse you on Monday. Your mission is to keep an eye on your supervisor, Yang."

"Manager Chen, do you want me to help her block the wine?"

"You don't have to do all this. Just bring food tomorrow. When the show is over, you're responsible for taking Manager Yang Xueyang home. And except for when she goes to the restroom, don't let her out of your sight. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Okay, Manager Chen, should I ask you to reimburse all my expenses directly on Monday, or should I ask the finance department to write an invoice?"

"Find me!"

Liao Fan was shocked when he heard the last voice message that popped up on his phone. He didn't understand why Manager Chen reacted so strongly.

Little did he know that Chen Yanfang, who was only separated from him by a wall, was so angry that she was scratching the wall.

But after venting his anger, he looked at the chat history with Liao Fan on his phone and started to smirk, muttering as he laughed, "You are so good, Wang Yi. I just showed you some color, and you can't sit still?

It doesn't matter. When you see that idiot standing in front of you tomorrow, will you be so angry that you'll vomit blood? Hahahaha."

The more she thought about it, the more interesting it became, and the happier she became. In the end, Chen Yanfang couldn't help laughing and squealing like a pig.

At this time, Yang Xue, the core person in the discussion between the two, had just come out of the client's company. Seeing the message in the group, she was also a little troubled.

She actually didn't want to go, but she felt bad about being separated from the masses on the first day of her promotion.

But when Yang Xue saw that it was Wang Yi who initiated this activity, she felt a little uncomfortable, although she didn't know where the problem lay.

After much deliberation, Yang Xue decided to buy insurance for herself.

Thinking of this, Yang Xue picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Hey, Liao Fan? I have a question for you. Are you going to the dinner party tomorrow night?"

...

After hanging up the phone, Liao Fan was completely upset this time.

He now finally realized that his emotional intelligence seemed to be insufficient.

People used to say this to him all the time, but Liao Fan didn’t take it seriously at the time. Now it seems that it’s time to find a way to make amends.

Thinking of this, Liao Fan immediately logged into the game, intending to buy a few golden eggs from the flea market.

Although the skills given by the system are sometimes tricky, you have to admit that they are really comprehensive. What if there are related skills in it?

Just when Liao Fan was about to click to buy, the annoying voice in his head came again.

"Ding, warning! Because the host attempted to exploit a system vulnerability to gain skills, we are setting relevant permissions: From this moment on, on the eve of the final data deletion, the host can only purchase 30 items from the auction house each month and then sell them to merchants to take them out of the game. Please choose carefully."

It has been confirmed that the number of times it can be used this month is zero."

F***k!

Soon it was time to get off work on Friday. This dinner was not much different from the other ones, and the people who went were actually the same people.

It’s just that there are two more people this time. One is the new business department director Yang Xue, which makes sense. The other is Liao Fan, the assistant director who was inexplicably promoted half a level... This... makes sense.

As people got into taxis one after another, Wang Yi, who finally drove his own car, looked very upset.

He really couldn't understand why the man who used to be an insulator of parties came quietly today?

I don’t know why, but when I see Liao Fan’s silly face, Wang Yi feels so angry.

But no matter how angry I am, since I'm here, I'll just take it one step at a time.

Soon everyone arrived at the restaurant. This time, Wang Yi was lucky enough to choose a Anhui cuisine restaurant.

I was lucky enough to work part-time in the kitchen of an Anhui restaurant.

Therefore, Liao Fan has tried all the main specialties and related dishes in most Anhui restaurants. (Those who work in restaurants should understand why he has tried them all.)

I originally planned to volunteer to help my colleagues avoid the problem, but I found that they had already ordered before the menu was even handed to them.

This made Liao Fan, who was sitting next to the dish, feel a little embarrassed.

Wang Yi, who was sitting in the main seat, saw this scene and felt so happy.

He actually did this on purpose, and not only that, Wang Yi specially arranged two of his trusted generals to sit on Liao Fan's left and right.

For the entire meal that followed, their only goal was to get Liao Fan drunk.

However, their wishful thinking was destined to fail.

As the dishes were placed on the table one after another, Liao Fan looked at the "stinky mandarin fish" on the table speechlessly.

This dish is indeed a classic of Anhui cuisine. However, not everyone can get used to it.

As expected, after everyone took a bite, the fish was left out. In the end, only Liao Fan was still eating it bite by bite.

But it was rare for Liao Fan to have a quiet meal. The two flies beside him kept trying to get him drunk with some very lame toasts.

Liao Fan felt embarrassed for them when they heard lines like "The deeper the feelings, the more you drink it." or "It's all in the wine."

But Liao Fan was too embarrassed to offend them, so he had no choice but to drink beer one glass after another.

After a while, when Wang Yi had not even finished drinking the three taels of liquor in the wine dispenser, he suddenly saw two of his trusted men starting to quarrel.

Is Liao Fan so evil?

Seeing this scene, Wang Yi's curiosity was aroused.

After making up an excuse and walking to the door, Wang Yi was dumbfounded when he turned around.

Liao Fan and his two confidants were seen holding an empty cardboard box each.

The bottles of Budweiser inside were all empty. How long has it been?

Wang Yi, who didn't believe in evil, took out a wine dispenser and poured some Fenjiu on Liao Fan's table. He planned to go into battle himself to dampen the opponent's fighting spirit and let his men eat something to calm them down.

In a short while, each of them finished a box of beer, and I guess they didn't eat much food.

It wouldn’t matter if he didn’t drink, but after two glasses, Wang Yi felt like something bad was going to happen.

This silly boy is like a bottomless pit. He drank half a pound of 52° Fenjiu and acted like nothing happened.

Wang Yi didn't dare to continue and quickly found an excuse to return to his seat to continue attacking Yang Xue.

Yang Xue saw all of this.

At first she was a little worried, afraid that this silly boy would get drunk before the second game.

Now that I see it, it’s pretty good, and it’s comparable to mine.

Seeing Wang Yi coming back, Yang Xue didn't hesitate either. They drank one cup after another, thinking to herself, "I'm a Shandong girl, how can I be afraid of you?"

After eating and drinking, Liao Fan finally got a little drunk, but his record was also very glorious.

Wang Yi brought a total of four absolute confidants, and Liao Fan knocked down three of them. They were really knocked down, and were still sleeping under the table.

As for the remaining one, it was purely because he came late.

Seeing that everyone enjoyed the food, Wang Yi invited everyone to go to the KTV near the company to relax and have some fun.

Everyone was having a great time drinking, and some of the young guys who had just joined the company had already fallen in love with each other. Of course, they would not just admit defeat and let it go.

Liao Fan came here with a mission, and it was not up to him to go or not. It all depended on Yang Xue.

As the head of the business department, Yang Xue naturally didn't want to spoil everyone's mood, so she reluctantly got on the car back to the company.

However, this time Yang Xue was careful and did not ride in the same car with other female colleagues in the company. Instead, she squeezed into Liao Fan's car with a giggle.

Originally, we hadn't thought of having women in the car, so the number of people arranged was just right.

At this time, sitting in the front row was a young man who had just been in the company for less than half a year, and sitting in the back row were Liao Fan, Yang Xue, and a passerby in the company.

Liao Fan was sitting in the middle of the back row at this time. The passerby was sitting on Liao Fan's left, playing with his mobile phone intently. Because Yang Xue squeezed in at the last minute, she could only sit on Liao Fan's right.

But if we do this, there will inevitably be some physical contact.

At this time, Liao Fan was wearing shorts and a short-sleeved T-shirt because of the hot weather, and Yang Xue was wearing her professional attire for meeting clients.

Black stockings, a tight skirt and a short suit make her already sexy figure look even more attractive.

As the car slowly started moving, the two of them consciously kept a certain distance at first and did not get too close to each other.

But this driver is also very aggressive.

As the taxi turned left and right, the two people finally squeezed together.

Feeling the silky feeling when the thighs and stockings rub against each other is an experience Liao Fan has never had before.

Yang Xue was also a little embarrassed at this time.

She hadn't noticed it when they were in the company, but when they sat together this time, Yang Xue discovered that Liao Fan had such a good figure.

When turning just now, Yang Xue accidentally touched Liao Fan's chest because she was not sitting firmly.

The firm and elastic feeling deeply stimulated her heart.

After a bumpy journey, we finally arrived at our destination.

When Yang Xue felt the car arrived at its destination, she immediately opened the door and jumped out.

I have to go down. If I continue, I'm afraid there will be an accidental discharge of the gun.

After feeling the people next to him get off the bus, Liao Fan felt a little regretful and subconsciously touched his right leg with his hand.

As a result, Yang Xue looked at this thing and her little face turned red immediately.

Fortunately, she was drunk and no one could tell unless they looked carefully. However, if an expert saw Yang Xue's current appearance, he would definitely start to imagine it.

It's because her clothes are now wrinkled and her skirt is a little high, and more importantly, her big eyes are almost dripping with tears.

Wang Yi, who had arrived a long time ago, saw that everyone was there, and couldn't wait to shout and go upstairs together.

When I arrived at the lobby, I found out that there were no extra-large bags, only medium and large bags. I thought about it and realized that we were all from the same company, so it would be okay if we squeezed in.

And you might find people sitting on top of each other later, so if one or two couples come, there will be plenty of space.
