Chapter 3075 I’m asking you for a favor

The next afternoon, the calligraphy and painting lecture at the University for the Elderly suddenly had a new lecturer.

As the vice president of the Painting and Calligraphy Association, Xiao Changkun did not attend. Instead, he hired a substitute teacher from the Painting and Calligraphy Association to give a lecture for him.

Han Meiqing specially brought the invitation written by He Yuanjiang for Xiao Changkun, but she did not see him come to class, so she waited for the substitute teacher to come up after class and asked: "Hello, why is Vice President Xiao not here today? "

The substitute teacher replied: "Vice President Xiao has been busy with the association recently, so he asked me to come over and give lectures for him at the University for the Elderly."

Han Meiqing asked curiously: "Do you know when he will come over next time?"

The substitute teacher said: "I guess he won't be here during this time, because he gave me the topics for some subsequent courses and asked me to make ppts to complete the lectures. I estimate that I will be the substitute for the next period of time."

With that said, he asked Han Meiqing: "Do you have anything to do with Vice President Xiao?"

Han Meiqing nodded and thanked: "I'll call him myself. Thank you."

After leaving the classroom, Han Meiqing called Xiao Changkun.

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Changkun was bored in the office of the Painting and Calligraphy Association.

In the Calligraphy and Painting Association, although he has reached the rank of executive vice president, that is, the actual second-in-command, he actually has no actual work content.

It's not because I'm being excluded, it's mainly because my level is too low.

Usually when everyone is discussing and researching some related topics, he either doesn't speak, and when he does speak, he makes a joke.

But because President Pei valued him very much, no one dared to really laugh at him. President Pei also knew that Xiao Changkun had basically no level at all, so he basically didn't arrange any substantive work for him.

After Han Meiqing returned to China and became a visiting professor at the University for the Elderly, Xiao Changkun took the initiative to ask Ying to take the lead in cooperating with the University for the Elderly. President Pei felt that the University for the Elderly said it was a university, but in fact it was just a social club for the elderly with nothing academic in it. There were no hard targets, so I agreed.

During this period, Xiao Changkun had been working hard at the University for the Elderly, but suddenly he stopped going today, and he immediately felt relaxed.

While he was bored, he suddenly received a call from Han Meiqing, and he felt depressed instantly. He knew why Han Meiqing called him. She must have wanted to send him an invitation, but she was not there.

Although I definitely don’t plan to go to this wedding, it’s really inappropriate not to accept the invitation.

So, he pretended to answer the phone and said, "Meiqing, are you looking for me?"

Han Meiqing hummed and asked him: "Chang Kun, you didn't come to the University for the Elderly today. The teacher who took your place said that you might not come here in the future? Is that true?"

Xiao Changkun said quickly: "Oh, this thing is true. The main reason is that there have been some actions in the association recently and it is quite busy. It is really difficult for me, the executive vice president, to stay at the University for the Elderly every day. Our President Pei He called me last night and said that there was a lot going on at the meeting and I couldn’t do it without me, so I came back to help first and I’ll go over when I’m free.”

Han Meiqing knew that what Xiao Changkun said must be excuses, but she didn't say anything. She just asked him: "When is it convenient for you, can I send you the invitation?"

When Xiao Changkun heard this, he quickly said: "Oh, I'm sending you an invitation. There's no need for you to make a special trip. Let's do it this way. You can just give the invitation to Xiao Wu, the little brother who helps me teach. Let Xiao Wu go back." Bring it to me during the meeting."

Seeing that he had said so, Han Meiqing stopped insisting and said, "Okay, then I'll give him the invitation."

Xiao Changkun was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk to Han Meiqing anymore, so he said, "Um, Meiqing, our President Pei has convened a meeting. I'll go first and we'll talk later."

"Okay, you get busy first."

Xiao Changkun hung up the phone, threw the phone on the table, lay down on the office chair, put his legs on the desk, feeling exhausted.

Although his worry about Ma Lan diluted his sadness about Han Meiqing's upcoming marriage, he would still feel very unhappy if he calmed down and thought about it.

He even felt in his heart that instead of doing this, Han Meiqing might as well not come back at all.

While he was depressed, someone knocked on his office door. Before he could respond, the person pushed the door open and it was President Pei who came.

President Pei saw him and said with a smile: "Old Xiao, Old Xiao, you, the executive vice president, it is not easy for me to meet you once. You go to the University for the Elderly all day long. You haven't been back for a while, right?"

Xiao Changkun quickly took his legs off the table and said politely: "Hey, President Pei, haven't I been busy with the project at the University for the Elderly during this time? But recently I have arranged for Xiao Wu there, and I will do it every day from now on. Come to the meeting and listen to your teachings, President Pei."

President Pei quickly said: "Don't take it, don't take it!"

Then he said with a smile: "Chang Kun, you just came back today. I have something to ask you for help. If you can help, please help. It doesn't matter if you can't help."

Xiao Changkun said hurriedly: "President Pei, look at what you said, you are my big brother and my old leader, so I am your soldier, so why don't I fight wherever you point me? I can fight. I, Xiao Changkun, am duty-bound. If you can’t beat me, Xiao Changkun, even with my old bones, I have to go to the battlefield to gesticulate in order to be worthy of your hard work in cultivating me!”

President Pei was very happy by his compliment, and said with a smile: "Chang Kun, you can say that, I, the big brother, are really proud of you. With the relationship between us two brothers, I will not say polite words to you. I have A friend of mine works in a higher-level department in our province. I recently wanted to move up the ladder, so I wanted to invite some key people out for a meal. Thanks to my connections, I booked a gold box at Tianxiang Mansion. In the end, I found the one The person was really not very helpful. We had agreed to a gold box, but now that we were going to have dinner in the evening, we were notified at short notice that the gold box was not reserved, so we had to go to the silver box. This made my friend very depressed, and he happened to invite me to the banquet with him. So I thought you have a good relationship with Mr. Hong Wu, so I wanted to see if I could arrange a better private room. Of course, it would be better if I could get a discount on meals. My friend doesn’t have much money, although it’s not that big. I can’t afford it, but it still hurts a bit.”

It has always been difficult to determine the private rooms in Tianxiang Mansion. Many times, the private rooms would rather be left empty than open to ordinary people.

This is not because Hong Wu has money and doesn't want to make it, but the main reason is that his original intention of opening Tianxiang Mansion was not to make money, but to show off his style and socialize.

When he was struggling in the society, he realized that what many people in society and big shots care about most is face. Drinking, eating, and daily consumption are all about striving for the best and the most expensive, and the social interaction of high-end people has no impact on privacy and social circles. The management attaches great importance to it. While Tianxiang Mansion ensures first-class environment, first-class food and first-class service, it must also ensure first-class quality of customers.

Just like those elder brothers on the road, they never go to the restaurants that their younger brothers often go to. And in the restaurants that they often go to, even if they have money, the younger brothers don't dare to go casually, because once they go to the place where the boss likes to spend money, they will inevitably There will be some transgression.

Therefore, Tianxiang Mansion has always had strict threshold restrictions. It would rather leave it empty when there are no guests than let in some guests of insufficient quality.

Only in this way can Tianxiang Mansion be ensured to be unique and high-style among Jinling Hotels.

The diamond, gold, silver and bronze box settings are also similar to the airline's cabin and membership level.

Precisely because Hong Wu has always adhered to the high threshold of Tianxiang Mansion, it is still the highest-end hotel in Jinling, bar none.

When Xiao Changkun heard the reason given by President Pei, he couldn't help but asked with some doubts: "Why did that person agree to this if he can't book the golden box? Isn't this a scam?"

President Pei smiled bitterly and said: "There are too many people like this in society now. Damn, if you don't have that diamond, you still have to take that porcelain job. The main one would rather kill the mistake than let it go. Accept it first and then think of a way. In case of success, If it works, he makes a profit; if it doesn’t work, he doesn’t lose anything.”

With that said, President Pei said again: "Chang Kun, you have to be careful about those people who make casual promises in the future. I had a friend before who was looking for someone to help his son settle in a big city. He met a fool who said one million I was able to get it done, but I waited for a year and it didn't work. When I finally asked him to refund the money, he resisted and refused. My friend finally went to call the police, but the other party quickly gave him one million."

Xiao Changkun said subconsciously: "It's not bad to get that one million back."

President Pei scolded: "Damn, this kind of fool is the most disgusting. In fact, he has no such way at all, and has no intention to help with this matter. He just wants to use someone else's one million interest-free loan. If he comes Urgent, just use the excuse that you are in a relationship and it will be settled soon, and you keep delaying it for various reasons. If the other party is really impatient and can't wait any longer, just return the money to him. Your matter will be delayed for a whole year. The annual interest has been wasted, but you can’t call the police to arrest him, so you can only suffer the loss of being dumb.”

Speaking of this, President Pei said again: "This kind of idiot usually casts a wide net. Not only does he brag in all kinds of ways, but he also refuses to refuse anyone who comes. This one will get a million, that one will get a million, and they will do it three or five times." I have tens of millions in my hand, and if I just sit there and earn interest, I will have millions in a year."

Xiao Changkun asked curiously: "President Pei, how do you know so clearly? Have you ever been fooled by this?"

President Pei sighed: "To tell you the truth, Brother Chang Kun, my son studied at Pheasant University abroad for a few years. When he came back, he went to big cities to attract talents, but they didn't recognize him. I didn't even bother to activate his household registration for my son. In the past two or three years, I have stepped on all kinds of pitfalls, and I have encountered all kinds of monsters and ghosts, but I still haven’t found a truly reliable path.”

With that said, President Pei waved his hand: "Oh, don't mention this, Chang Kun, see if you can do me a favor and get the golden box of Tianxiang Mansion?"

Xiao Changchang just wanted a golden box, so he immediately patted his chest and promised: "Oh, President Pei, this is all a trivial matter. I will ask my son-in-law to say hello to Mr. Hong Wu, and it should be fine!"
