When Lu Feng saw that his father was trying to squeeze in and show off, he reached out and pulled him back. The families of his uncle, aunt, and other relatives entered the restaurant in a lively atmosphere.
"Why did you pull me?" Lu Wancai looked at Lu Feng with great displeasure and said, "You good-for-nothing."
Lu Feng remained silent after being scolded. He could also see that, putting aside the fact that he had given him 600,000 yuan, he was unsure whether he could help him regain all the face he had saved in the first forty years of his life.
This family has a serious hierarchical division. The eldest aunt's family is obviously the ceiling of this family. Even Lu Bingwen is close to his eldest daughter and always rides in his eldest son-in-law's luxury car when he comes to the restaurant.
Yu Tian is a well-known figure in the county and considered part of the upper class in the city. His uncle was not much better off than Lu Bingwen's family before, but his daughter married well, and it was obvious that he came here to show off.
The second aunt's family is considered the backbone of the family. They are close to the older sister, and from the moment they entered the house until now, they have been talking to Lu Jinyue.
Lu Wancai had been holding back his anger in this family for decades, and today he could finally let it out. Lu Feng, on the other hand, was trying his best to keep a low profile. How could he not be angry?
As soon as they entered the restaurant, Lu Jinyue and her family started chatting with several men in suits. They seemed to know each other well, calling each other "boss" and "boss".
"Wan Cai, please seat Dad and Mom first. Yu Tian will run into some CEOs; say hello to them," Lu Jin Yue instructed.
Lu Wancai nodded and looked at Lu Feng, asking, "Do you recognize those people?"
"How could I possibly know them?" Lu Feng sensed that he was about to have another competition with them, so he hurriedly said, "Let's go, let's get Grandpa and Grandma seated first. It's lunchtime, time to eat."
"You're a CEO, after all. Go over and say a few polite words to them, exchange business cards, and you'll have good connections in the future!"
"What's there to be polite about? I'm not used to being polite to people, especially since I don't even know them!" Lu Feng said helplessly.
"You're so successful in the world, don't you socialize? Maybe you have some kind of collaborative project!"
Lu Feng was absolutely right. He rarely socialized with others; it was always others who socialized with him, and their identities were completely different.
Jiang Xiaoyan chimed in from the side, "If Dad tells you to go over there, then just go!"
Lu Feng had no choice but to bite the bullet and keep going.
"Remember, say you're the chairman!" Lu Wancai instructed.
As Lu Feng stepped forward, Lu Jinyue glanced at him and said, "Let me introduce you. This is my nephew. He's a manager at Jiaming Foods now, and he's very capable."
The group glanced at Lu Feng and praised him for his talent at such a young age.
"Lu Feng, why don't you and your dad make the arrangements? These are all general managers and chairmen, and they're discussing some important industry issues!" Yu Tian said to Lu Feng.
"You wouldn't understand even if I told you!" Yu Rongguang waved his hand impatiently and said, "Go do your work."
Lu Feng knew that this family had always felt particularly superior in the Lu family, and they treated everyone with disrespect, showing no regard for face or reputation.
However, his appearance in front of outsiders made him frown slightly.
"It's actually quite easy to become a junior manager at Jiaming Foods, but it's very difficult to stay there long-term. I've heard that the competition there is extremely fierce," said a man in his forties.
"Yes, Mr. Qian works at Jiaming Foods. I heard he's now the vice president."
"He was promoted so quickly? I remember he was just a director when he joined at the beginning of the year, and now he's a vice president?"
"I heard that it's more than ten times more tiring than working in a state-owned enterprise, but the salary and position increase rapidly. A while ago, a large number of people were laid off, but he seized the opportunity and rose to the top. He doesn't rely on his salary; he has equity and receives dividends at the end of the year!"
"Is General Manager Qian no longer working at the original No. 4 factory?" Yu Tian asked.
“I quit at the beginning of the year. The Fourth Factory couldn’t even pay wages by the end of the year. When Old Qian comes over, take your nephew over for a drink. He’ll definitely take care of him.”
Yu Tian was a little unhappy. He glanced at Lu Feng, who was completely clueless about social niceties and didn't even say thank you. He said, "Let's talk about it later. What is Mr. Qian in charge of now? Can you get some orders? Whatever Jiaming Foods wants, we'll produce it."
"That's a bit difficult. Jiaming Foods has a complete industrial chain and its own raw material factories. We can ask around and find some odds and ends, like work clothes, tables and chairs, etc. We can make a fortune even if it's just a little bit related to them!"
Lu Feng wanted to speak, but he didn't get a chance to say anything.
Yu Tian exchanged a few polite words, saying that when President Qian arrived later, he would definitely go over for a couple of drinks. He then turned around and walked back. Lu Jinyue saw Lu Feng following behind him and said, "Lu Feng, hurry up and run a few steps to help your dad with some work."
"Okay!" Lu Feng replied and jogged towards the private room.
"This Lu Feng is as dumb as an idiot, he can't even say a word, just standing there is annoying to look at, and he still managed to get into the factory?" Yu Tian scoffed disdainfully, "I remember he wasn't like this when he was a hoodlum, what a big change?"
"I haven't seen him for several years, he's like a completely different person. Don't bring him when you go to see President Qian later." Lu Jinyue muttered, "Judging from his appearance, I hope he doesn't ruin things. I need to get some work done for Rongguang's factory and get the deputy factory director position sorted out quickly."
"Dad, our factory manager said that whoever can get the orders will be the boss. The deputy factory manager will be elected after the New Year. If we miss this opportunity, we won't get another one!" Yu Rongguang said nervously.
"Don't worry, with my connections, it's just a matter of putting in a few words for you. You're a grown man now, you can't rely on me to solve every problem you encounter. It's time for you to stand on your own."
“My son is already the deputy factory director, can’t he still stand on his own?” Lu Jinyue looked at Yu Rongguang with a face full of doting affection.
