"Hello, I'm looking for Comrade Yin Zheng. This is my letter of introduction."
The receptionist looked at her letter of introduction and said to her, "Please wait a moment, I will arrange for someone to take you there."
"This is troublesome."
"No trouble at all, it's for the people."
Soon, a woman in her thirties came over: "Comrade, you must be the one Team Leader Yin asked to help!"
"It's me."
"Do a good job. This time, Team Leader Yin is leading the arrangements, and the higher-ups are paying close attention. If you succeed, your work relationship might be transferred in the future!"
Although working in a daily chemical factory is also a government job, it can't compare to working for a national government agency in terms of salary and benefits.
"I will definitely follow the leader's instructions carefully."
As they were talking, they arrived at their destination. They knocked on the door, and a deep, steady voice came from inside: "Come in."
The eldest sister brought Jia Yue in. The office wasn't big. Yin Zheng was now a team leader, and the leader had arranged a private office for him.
Upon looking up and seeing Jia Yue, Yin Zheng smiled at his older sister and said, "Thank you for bringing the person over to me, Sister Chen."
"No trouble at all, I've brought the person, you guys go ahead with your work."
"Okay, take care, Sister Chen."
After Sister Chen left, Jia Yue didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly. Yin Zheng made her a cup of tea and handed it to her: "Try it. This tea is green tea from Sichuan. Please try it."
Jia Yue picked up the cup, took a sip, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "This tea is comparable to imperial tribute."
There were only two people in the room, so Jia Yue didn't hold back when she spoke.
Setting down her teacup, Jia Yue continued, "How much of this rare Sparrow Tongue tea is being produced?"
"I discovered this tea by chance. The yield is not low, but the location is relatively remote."
"How much is this tea?"
"It costs about eight yuan per kilogram, and you need a receipt."
"The most popular teas on the market are Pu'er black tea, which costs around ten yuan per kilogram. This Sparrow Tongue tea is so cheap. Tea culture has a long history. Which countries are participating in this exhibition?"
“Several neighboring countries, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and Hong Kong... as well as some overseas Chinese from Western countries.”
Most of them are neighboring countries.
They were all people who didn't lack money, so Jia Yue immediately came up with a plan to boast about the tea. The tea was indeed of high quality, and she wasn't lying.
The two talked for a long time in the office. After they finished, Yin Zheng looked like he hadn't had enough: "I never knew you had such a talent for business."
"I've never had a chance to show my skills before, have I? Let's not talk about that. Didn't you arrange a teacher for me? Take me there."
"Okay, it's almost time to get off work. I'll take you there."
After saying that, the two left the office one after the other. As soon as they came out, they ran into Feng Chunhua. When she saw the two of them, especially Jia Yue, her eyes were not very friendly.
She asked softly, "Brother Yin Zheng, who is this lady?"
Yin Zheng's face darkened, and his eyes showed impatience: "New comrade, Comrade Feng, you should pay attention to how you address people when it comes to work."
Feng Chunhua nodded, her tone perfunctory: "I understand, Brother Yin Zheng."
I know, but I won't listen.
At this moment, Chu Yong suddenly appeared. When his gaze swept over Jia Yue, a flash of amazement crossed his eyes, but he quickly focused his attention on Feng Chunhua.
"Yin Zheng, Chunhua is a woman. You should at least be gentle with women."
After saying that, he said to Jia Yue, "This must be Comrade Xu Jia Yue, whom Yin Zheng specially invited to demonstrate her tea-making skills for the exhibition. Comrade Xu is indeed outstanding in temperament. Don't let Yin Zheng's good intentions go to waste."
That's a very misleading statement!
At the very least, everyone present was overthinking things, and Feng Chunhua's gaze toward Jia Yue grew increasingly hostile.
Although Yin Zheng was willing, he had no intention of forcing anyone. He frowned and said, "Chu Yong, the plan I submitted was approved by the organization, and inviting Comrade Xu was also approved by the organization. The way you're talking makes it sound like I have some shady relationship with Comrade Xu. People have to be responsible for their own words."
Chu Yong's face stiffened, and he immediately explained, "I just thought the two of you were a handsome couple, that's all."
Jia Yue smiled gently and said, "Comrade Yin, I don't think this comrade did it on purpose. There were quite a few colleagues at work who liked to pair up unmarried young people. Older people are like that."
Yin Zheng couldn't help but smile.
Chu Yong froze awkwardly. He was only in his early twenties and considered himself to be in the prime of his life.
An elderly person? Him?
Chu Yong: "Comrade Xu, I was just joking."
Jia Yue smiled, but the atmosphere became even more awkward.
Yin Zheng then spoke up: "Chu Yong, you can't joke about a woman's reputation."
"It was my fault, Comrade Xu, I'm sorry."
"As long as Comrade Chu knows to be more careful with his jokes in the future, I will accept your apology."
As for whether or not to forgive?
Of course, I won't forgive.
Seeing Yin Zheng's protectiveness towards Jia Yue, Feng Chunhua spoke up inappropriately, "Comrade Xu, it was just a joke, why make such a big deal out of it!"
Jia Yue looked at her with interest, her gaze sweeping back and forth between the two of them several times, before she said meaningfully, "Comrade Feng is so protective of Comrade Chu, could it be that you two are..."
At this point, Feng Chunhua hurriedly interrupted her: "You're talking nonsense. Chu Yong and I are completely innocent."
"I was just joking, Comrade Feng, don't take it so seriously!"
"you……"
Yin Zheng watched Jia Yue's counterattack with admiration in his eyes: "Chu Yong, Comrade Feng, Comrade Xu and I have other matters to attend to, so we'll be leaving now."
