The two old men, both with half their hair white, started arguing in front of everyone in the box, disregarding their years of friendship.
The several staff members brought by the two men not only did not dissuade them, but were also eager to try and have a fight with each other.
Zhang Wenyu and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. Seeing the two men arguing more and more excitedly, the auctioneer and Zhang Wenyu hurriedly pulled them apart, fearing something might happen.
They say old children are old children. Even when they were pulled apart, they refused to give in, glaring at each other and snorting coldly. With such tempers, it's no wonder they could be friends.
Zhang Wenyu looked at them, unsure which museum to give it to. This was unfortunate. He'd intended to do something good, but ended up in such an awkward situation. After a moment's contemplation, he offered an idea.
"Doesn't Country J still have one of our Yohen Tenmoku tea bowls? We can exchange it with them using the Hasebe Yashiro. That way, we'll have two national treasures. Then you two can draw lots, and whichever one you draw gets it. No one can regret it."
You know what, this is actually a good idea. Both curators agreed and volunteered to go and negotiate with the J countrymen.
Speaking of which, it seems that the businessman from Country J doesn’t know that bidder No. 9 is from China. When they find out the truth, they will probably be furious.
Zhang Wenyu naturally had no objection. They were more professional and experienced, and were very suitable candidates.
The two curators felt embarrassed again now that the problem had been solved. They approached Zhang Wenyu, trying to redeem themselves.
"When Miss Zhang comes to City B, please be sure to visit our museum. Our museum always welcomes Miss Zhang."
"Yes, yes, yes. Miss Zhang is always welcome at our S Province Museum. If you have time, please come to our S Province and let me show my hospitality. We have a lot of delicious food and fun things in S Province, especially things that you young people like."
"Miss Zhang, I'll be your personal guide when you come to City B. I've lived in City B for almost thirty years and am very familiar with all the fun places. I also know the popular check-in spots that you young people like. In short, you can contact me if you need anything. I have some respect in City B."
The two curators and Zhang Wenyu exchanged contact information. After receiving an invitation to visit in the future, they left to prepare for negotiations with the J countrymen.
Zhang Wenyu also signed various documents with the auction staff, communicated the delivery time and location of the jewelry, and determined the follow-up personnel for the three auction items: Kangdi Building, Rose Castle, and the yacht.
Ding Qingluan and An Ruo had already completed the paperwork and had the auction house ship the items they had won back to City S. They then said goodbye to Yang Fei, the auctioneer, and prepared to return to the hotel.
Yang Fei sent the three of them out.
“Thank you all for your support of our auction, and welcome to visit Hong Kong City again next time.”
It was already midnight. Zhang Wenyu returned to the hotel, showered, and went to bed. She had to catch a flight back to City S the next morning. The resort in the west of the city had officially been transferred to her, and she also had to prepare for an interview with an investment company.
Lying on the soft big bed, Zhang Wenyu was thinking about what he had to do after returning to S City. He turned over and sighed deeply.
How come she is busier now that she has money than when she had no money?
Nine o'clock in the morning, S City Airport.
The newly appointed assistant Yang Jiangyue had already arrived. When he saw Zhang Wenyu coming out, he hurried forward to greet him.
"Mr. Zhang, as you instructed, the recruitment notice has been sent out. We've received a total of 86 resumes so far, and 52 have qualified after screening. Four of the applicants have experience working at top domestic and international venture capital firms or investment companies, and three have years of management experience at large companies. Are you available to interview them in person?"
"The formalities for the resort in the west of the city have been completed. Liu Chao and others will report there at 10 a.m. Except for a few people who followed Young Master Wang, the rest of the original resort staff are still in their original positions. Are there any adjustments needed?"
Zhang Wenyu pondered for a moment and said thoughtfully.
"Let's arrange the interviews and set up the framework first. As for the people below, let them interview themselves after the management team is selected. It's still early, let's go to the resort first."
The car turned around and headed west towards the city.
The resort is located in a remote area, but the scenery is beautiful. Follow the asphalt road through the dense woods and enter a paradise full of flowers.
There are no towering mountains here, but there is a lake filled with lotus flowers. Several wooden boats are parked on the shore, and boating on the lake with friends on a sunny afternoon is a unique experience.
In addition to some living facilities, there is also a firefly night park, a farm where you can experience the fun of picking, and a beautiful forest tree house that looks like an elf's residence...
After passing through the wooden gate, a path paved with bluestone slabs leads to the depths of the resort. Opposite the gate is the visitor reception hall.
Liu Chao and his companions had already arrived at the reception hall. The original staff members stood on the other side, and the two groups seemed clearly separated. When they saw Zhang Wenyu, they all gathered around.
"...Mr. Zhang."
Liu Chao lowered his eyes. He didn't know how to deal with the elderly people in the resort. He felt ashamed of Zhang Wenyu's trust.
When Hong Mei saw Liu Chao respectfully approaching to greet her, she immediately guessed the identity of the newcomer. So she quickly brought the others along to follow. When she heard Liu Chao address her, she naturally confirmed that the young woman before her was the new owner of the resort.
Hong Mei and the others were a bit nervous about their new boss. Jobs aren't easy to find these days. The work at the resort isn't too busy, the benefits are good, and they're already established here, so they don't want to change jobs easily. But they're also worried that the new boss will think they were hired by the previous boss and won't want them anymore. Or maybe they'll want to cut their compensation. The veteran employees are feeling confused and worried about the future.
Zhang Wenyu observed the performance of both groups. It wasn't hard to guess what they were thinking. He also understood that the concerns of the veteran employees needed to be addressed first.
After gathering his thoughts, Zhang Wenyu turned to the group of thirty or forty veteran employees. Standing at the front of the group, he spotted a woman in her forties of medium height. This woman was presumably their leader.
Zhang Wenyu first looked at the crowd with a gentle smile and gave them a promise.
"Hello everyone, my name is Zhang, and I'm the new owner of this resort. I've been busy the past few days and haven't had time to come over. Thank you very much for staying and helping me take care of the resort. If you're willing to continue working here in the future, I'd be very welcome to do so."
When this was said, the old employees all breathed a sigh of relief, as they were glad that they would not be fired.
Zhang Wenyu looked at the crowd around him, whose expressions had obviously relaxed, and smiled. He reached out and called Yang Fei over.
"Since everyone wants to continue working here, we're all colleagues now. Let's get to know each other. This is Liu Chao, the manager I hired. He will be the head of the resort from now on."
