Chapter 229 A Different Lu Qiu

Holding the orange, apple and pear mixed juice, Xia Wange went to the side to get some gas.

While waiting, I heard some people chatting behind me.

"My family always says that in their era, people of this age would get married, have children, and then go back to work in the fields. After work, they would go home to cook. They didn't live as comfortably as we do now. I don't know what to say."

"My family members always say this, saying that nowadays childbirth can be done without pain, but they used to go through pain, and they don't know how to love their children if it's not painful. They also say that they didn't have such good nutrition back then, and that it's good enough to have something to eat. They always say that I'm picky, but I give in."

"You always talk about hardship and suffering, and you also say that we young people can have no pressure. The pressure is really great, okay?"

Xia Wange filled the bottle with gas, inserted a straw into the glass bottle, and took a sip.

Homemade carbonated juice seems to taste better.

Listening to the two people still chatting and complaining about how their elders always looked down on them for not enduring hardships and living too comfortably, Xia Wange couldn't help but say as she passed by: "Only water ghosts want others to experience everything they have experienced. People who really care about you just hope that you don't follow their old path and live a better and better life."

The two were stunned when they heard this, and wanted to see who spoke so fluently, and then they saw Master Xia.

"Sister Xia, you're here?"

"Sister Xia, you are finally here."

"Sister Xia, what you said makes so much sense. I will stop wasting time now."

Xia Wange said hello to a few people and left with his drink. He originally wanted to go back to the office and lie down directly, but then he remembered that he wanted to exercise, so he started walking around the company.

After strolling outside a large conference room, Xia Wange could no longer walk. She looked through the glass and saw the man in a formal suit sitting at the head of the huge conference table.

The well-tailored suit made him look meticulous. His facial features were sharp and cold, and when he listened to others' PPT presentation without any expression, he looked very cold and solemn.

In short, it was completely different from usual. Xia Wan Ge took a look and always had the illusion that he was watching an acquaintance pretending to be cool, but...

It seemed that Lu Qiu was like this usually. When she first met Lu Qiu, even though he was in a ditch and had just experienced a life-and-death crisis, he remained very calm, and there was no panic in his eyes.

Thinking of this, Xia Wange tapped the glass lightly. The slightly cool touch passed through her fingertips, but was melted by the warmth in her heart.

Since when did Lu Qiu become different in her eyes?

At this moment, Lu Qiu, who had been staring at someone else's presentation PPT, happened to meet Xia Wange's gaze.

I don’t know if it was Xia Wange’s illusion, but in just a moment, Xia Wange felt that Lu Qiu’s eyes had become much gentler.

But he just nodded slightly to greet her, and continued to look at the person who was explaining the PPT. After the other person finished speaking, he immediately spoke about the content.

Xia Wange sipped the drink in his hand.

Sure enough, Lu Qiu is still Lu Qiu. He doesn’t like to waste other people’s time and respects the fruits of other people’s labor.

Thinking of this, Xia Wange glanced at the people attending the meeting again, and his eyes widened slightly. There were actually some more "star generals" and "civil officials"?

The generals she was referring to were not the traditional kind who would go to war, but those who liked to expand territory, conquer cities, develop new businesses, and take on challenges in the business world. There were also some people at the conference table who were cautious and good at protecting their current business empires...

Xia Wange took a deep breath. He hadn't been to the company for a few days. Has this place developed into a small court?

No wonder Du Yun said that recently there are always people submitting new project plans and asking the company to give them resources. They come to run the project. Several of them have the looks of people who are very capable and dare to think and act. Most importantly, they are very loyal...

Once these people are released, they will be the helmsmen who can kill people wherever they go, and they can tear down a piece of the sky. Now, they are the most outstanding generals of the company, expanding the territory...

Where did Lu Qiu recruit these people?

If this kind of scenario happened in ancient times, subordinates could fulfill their responsibilities of governing the country and expanding the territory by themselves, and the emperor only needed to stamp his seal.

If I meet another wise leader again, I can’t even imagine it.

Fortunately, she had consumed a lot of purple energy by taking Lu Qiu to see ghosts and encounters some ghosts some time ago. If she was not there, and Lu Qiu continued to be left alone like this, he would be finished sooner or later.

After watching for a while, Xia Wange shook her head and returned to the office in a melancholy mood. She played with her phone for a while. When Lu Qiu came back, she sat up and said, "If you continue to let the company develop like this, I don't know what to do."

Lu Qiu was about to speak when he heard a noise behind him. He pointed behind him and closed his mouth.

"Boss Lu, what do you mean?" A man hurried in, glanced at Xia Wange, nodded at her, and said to Lu Qiu in a hurry, "Is my plan bad? You agree with Boss Li and you disagree with mine? He and I are not in conflict, and we are not competing with each other. I don't ask you to increase my salary for now. You can increase my salary when I have achieved results. I just ask you to add a few more people."

Lu Qiu sighed and said, "The plan is great. Why don't you go out and do it yourself? I'll provide you with a venue for free. The building next door is vacant. Can I let you use it?"

The visitor frowned, "Mr. Lu, what do you mean, don't you trust me?"

"It's not that I don't trust you..."

"Then you don't need to assign people to me. I will form my own team and pay their salaries first."

"Then you can definitely do it alone."

"No, with the support of the company, resources can be easily exchanged. Even if you don't allocate funds, I still have a way to open up the market."

Lu Qiu: "...Anyway, I don't agree with your plan."

"You look down on me."

"I don't look down on you."

"Then you despise my plan."

"I don't look down on your plan..." Lu Qiu sighed, "If you insist, I will fire you."

The visitor's eyes widened. "I don't agree."

Xia Wange, who was watching the game from the side, said: "???"

The man then said, "I have shares in the company. Do you know how much you will have to pay if you fire me?"

"I know." Lu Qiu said, "Can I give you 3n?"

"No." The man said, "I don't agree. I want to work in the company anyway. If you don't agree, I will go find other shareholders to sign and enforce it."

"Why bother?" Lu Qiu said, "Your project will definitely make money, almost as much as Xiao Li's. It would be great if you could start your own company."
