Wu Changfeng was comfortably lying in the hot spring.
Suddenly I heard a Chinese voice.
It's a classic Chinese quatrain: "窝草" (wō cǎo).
This sent a shiver down Wu Changfeng's spine.
Who is it?
The fog in front of me was so thick that I couldn't see anything.
Could it be Director Wang and his group?
That can't be right, the entrance fee for this hot spring is quite expensive.
Aside from corporate invitations and wealthy individuals, people from mainland China almost never come here to enjoy themselves.
With those Japanese yen and US dollars, you might as well buy some things to bring back to China and show off.
If you go back and brag to your neighbors that you've soaked in a hot spring in an island nation...
People will definitely think you're an old lewd person.
but……
Why does this voice sound so familiar?
Gradually.
A figure emerged from the mist, wading through the water.
Wu Changfeng took a closer look and exclaimed, "Holy crap! Minister Xu!"
Minister Xu was overjoyed: "What are you doing here?"
"And what about you?"
"I'm here in the island nation on official business!"
"Business? Then you're blatantly accepting the invitation."
Minister Xu was taken aback. "Can't you speak properly?"
I see through it but don't say it out loud. You, Wu Changfeng, surely understand.
Minister Xu said, "Anyway, it's the islanders who are paying for it and eating the landlord's food, so we feel at ease."
Then Minister Xu called out, "Director Xu, come here, come over here."
Factory Director Xu swam over using the breaststroke.
Minister Xu introduced, "This is Wu Changfeng, your benefactor."
"This is Director Xu of Chicheng Plastics Company."
"Oh!" Factory Director Xu stepped forward and shook hands: "Boss Wu! I really didn't expect to meet you here. I should have visited you, but I didn't have the time. I'm so sorry."
Wu Changfeng tilted his head, then suddenly remembered: "Oh, you're the one who provides the matching plastic casings for my company!"
"Yes, yes!" Factory Director Xu said with a grin, "Thanks to Ms. Liu Tao's introduction, my factory survived."
Wu Changfeng waved his hand: "It's not really a collaboration. Without the plastic shell you provided, I would be a fish out of water, unable to hop around for long."
Factory Director Xu replied, "You flatter me. I wish us a pleasant cooperation in the future."
"And who is this?" Director Xu glanced at Mr. Richuan.
Wu Changfeng said, "These are our partners in the island nation."
Factory Director Xu wanted to say hello, but then scratched his head and said, "I don't speak Japanese, so I won't say hello."
Wu Changfeng nodded: "We communicate in English."
Wu Changfeng then introduced the two to Richuan-kun.
Hikawa-kun was very understanding: "You must have something to talk about. I also need to go home. My wife is becoming suspicious of me if I stay away for too long."
Wu Changfeng laughed heartily: "I'm henpecked."
Hikawa-kun was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "This word is very interesting. You two continue your discussion, I'll be going now."
After seeing Hikawa-kun off.
The three leaned against the edge of the hot spring platform.
Minister Xu wiped his face with a towel and asked, "What brings you to this island nation?"
"This is an agricultural machinery exhibition, so I'm here to do some small business."
Factory Director Xu became interested: "How small is a small business?"
"It's only a transaction of over 27 million US dollars," Wu Changfeng said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Factory Director Xu was struck dumb, choking on his water: "Cough cough~~~ This is supposed to be a small business?"
Minister Xu smiled and said, "For Boss Wu, it is indeed a small business. Don't get excited."
"Minister Xu, is it too late for me to resign? I want to learn from Boss Wu's experience."
"You want to make money along with this, right?"
"Don't say it out loud, don't say it out loud," Director Xu said with a smile.
Minister Xu said, "You should just focus on securing this project; that's better than anything else."
Factory Director Xu shrugged.
Wu Changfeng continued, "I agree with Minister Xu's idea. Some things still require specific people to do them. You may have had a smooth time as a factory manager, but that doesn't mean you'll succeed if you go into business."
Factory Director Xu smiled and said, "I was just joking."
Minister Xu said, "Wait a minute, you sold equipment at the agricultural machinery exhibition? To my knowledge, this is the first time I've ever done this."
Wu Changfeng nodded.
"Wow, you're amazing. I'm starting to have ideas myself." Minister Xu said with a sly smile.
Wu Changfeng's face immediately fell.
That smile...
It looks familiar!
Minister Xu asked, "What's your schedule next?"
Wu Changfeng stated frankly, "I might need to go somewhere else to take care of some business."
"Traveling?"
"Um... I guess so."
Minister Xu patted Wu Changfeng on the shoulder: "Then I have to criticize you a bit. This island nation is too small. What's there to see?"
"Isn't the beautiful scenery of the mainland far better than here?"
Wu Changfeng's eyes widened.
Hey, what do you mean?! The more there are, the more wrong it seems!
Minister Xu didn't give Wu Changfeng a chance to speak at all, and continued, "Here's what we're going to do: I'm requisitioning your time for the next few days. We have a negotiation going on here, and you'll have to participate."
Factory Director Xu: ? ? ?
Did he participate in our negotiations?
What a joke! He's not even in the industry!
If someone speaks carelessly and Shimadzu raises the price, who will be responsible?
This is not because Director Xu looks down on Wu Changfeng.
Instead, everyone has their own area of expertise; how can we let an outsider get involved?
There are too many harms to having laymen lead experts!
Minister Xu, please think it over!
Minister Xu watched as Director Xu made faces and gestures, but completely ignored him.
You don't know anything!
