Rebirth of a Farmer's Dad

And so, Luo Feng and his companions were politely led to the reception room by the burly man. Along the way, he kept apologizing, saying he had misjudged them and hoped they wouldn't mind. Watching his change in attitude from arrogant to obsequious always gave the group a strange sense of satisfaction.

He led them to the reception room, brewed a cup of fragrant tea for each of them, and then left, saying he needed to report to his boss to see if he was available to come over, and asked them to wait in the conference room for a while.

"Old He, Brother Feng, you two put on such a good act! You managed to fool that guy. If you ask me, if you two didn't go into acting, you'd be..." As soon as they left, Xiao Li became lively again, but before he could finish speaking, Luo Feng and Old He abruptly interrupted him with gestures. If he hadn't reacted quickly, the two of them would have reached out and covered his mouth.

They were now in someone else's reception room, not on their own turf. If the other party had eavesdropped, they would be in big trouble. After all, given the current situation, offending a big boss like Wang Hongbin was unwise and would be detrimental to their future development in the food processing industry.

Fortunately, the group quickly realized this and stopped all communication. However, even at this point, Boss Wang still hadn't shown up. Bored, they began to examine the furnishings inside the room.

This is a very ordinary small reception room. Besides a sofa and coffee table, there is a TV cabinet with a large color TV, presumably to keep guests entertained. However, it's actually not very useful; people who come here to discuss business won't watch TV.

At that moment, a faint fragrance in the room caught Luo Feng's attention. He initially thought it was the smell of burning sandalwood and some other spices, but he soon realized he was wrong. The fragrance in the room was coming from several potted plants placed in the corner.

In his past life, he hadn't studied much about expenses, so he didn't know what was on that table. However, Luo Feng really liked the fragrance. It seemed he should find a suitable opportunity to ask someone about it and try to put a couple of pots of it in his own room when he got back.

Just as Luo Feng was inhaling the faint floral fragrance, the conference room door opened again. Everyone expected Wang Hongbin to enter, but instead, what appeared first was a woman's slender, delicate foot.

With long, flowing black hair, a light gray business suit, a light gray pencil skirt, flesh-colored stockings, and black high heels, and carrying a blue folder, she was dressed like a typical female secretary. Presumably, this woman is Wang Hongbin's secretary!

As soon as the woman entered, she began to curiously examine Luo Feng and his companions. However, after their eyes met, a faint smile immediately appeared on her face.

After seeing her smiling face, the group began to pay attention to her facial features.

Overall, her features were fairly well-proportioned, with a sharp nose, a small mouth, and a touch of light red lipstick. Most striking were her bright, black, gem-like eyes, which greatly enhanced her appearance.

"I heard from my men that you all came to discuss some matters with our boss, but that clueless guy stopped you at the door. I sincerely apologize to you all and hope you won't take this to heart. Don't let such a small person affect our cooperation." Listening to his words, this woman seemed to know what had just happened. However, her willingness to apologize for such a trivial matter earned her even more favor in Luo Feng's eyes.

It seems she has truly mastered the art of interpersonal communication. Frankly, dealing with people isn't easy, but the first step is to win their favor and find common ground. Once someone develops a dislike for you, the relationship will be impossible to maintain, and anything beyond that will be out of the question.

"We've come here sincerely to seek cooperation with you. Our superiors are urging us to come and take a look as soon as possible. That's why we brought all our luggage here before we even had time to sort it out." Luo Feng's words were cleverly worded, prompting Lao He and the others to nod in agreement.

This way of saying it demonstrates the sincerity of the group and also explains why they brought luggage, avoiding any awkwardness if asked. It's better to bring this up proactively, at least leaving room for maneuver.

The other person nodded slightly in understanding, then said to the group, "I'm really sorry, there's a lot going on at the factory today, and our boss, Mr. Wang, is quite busy. I'm afraid you'll have to wait a little longer. How about this, I'll tell them to get you all a fresh cup of tea, and I'll also go check on the boss." Just as he finished speaking, a loud laugh came from outside the door.

"Haha, I'm so sorry, my friends, for keeping you waiting. I've been really busy, please forgive any delays." The man who appeared before everyone this time was a middle-aged man, dressed in a suit, slightly overweight, but not just overweight. He had the typical slicked-back hair of a successful man, small eyes, a fleshy nose, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his chubby face, which looked somewhat comical.

"This must be Mr. Wang Hongbin, sir. Hello! It's a pleasure to meet you." Without needing an introduction, Luo Feng knew that the main person had arrived, so he quickly stood up, extended his hand to shake hands with the other party, and everyone who was originally sitting on the sofa also stood up and nodded to him.

"Gentlemen, please don't be shy, please have a seat." Upon seeing this, Wang Hongbin responded with a smile and quickly asked the group to sit down again.

Then he turned to his secretary and whispered, "Yingying, there's nothing for you here. You can go out now. I'll call you if I need anything."

Upon hearing his words, the secretary he called Yingying nodded slightly to indicate that she understood, gave everyone a faint smile, and then closed the door and left.

"This girl is quite nice. I forgot to ask her name earlier?" Perhaps he was tempted by her beauty, because under these circumstances, Xiao Li actually said this, which made everyone look at him.

To avoid an awkward situation, Lao He immediately chimed in, "I think this girl is quite good. She handles people and situations very well, and there's nothing to criticize. It seems that you, Boss Wang, have done a good job training her!"

"Haha, it's nothing, it's nothing, you're too kind." Hearing Lao He's words, Wang Hongbin seemed quite satisfied, but still spoke modestly.

"You gentlemen have come to visit suddenly, and you're in such a hurry to see me. I wonder what you want to talk to me about?" Since we've never met before, it's natural for us to get to the bottom of things today. It's not just a matter of exchanging a few polite words. Now it's time to get down to business.
