"Not much, just..."
"What do you mean 'not much'? Luo, you're just being too modest!" Just as Luo Peng was about to continue playing dumb, the person in charge spoke up, "What do you mean by one million or two million? Add a zero and it'll be more like it. Luo, you just landed a deal worth twenty-four million!"
Twenty-four million!
Whether they were busy working, chatting, or even rushing out to meet with clients, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Luo Peng.
"Don't joke like that, it's two million four hundred thousand, right?" Brother Liu took over the conversation dryly, his gaze fixed on the person handling the matter, hoping to hear the answer he wanted from him.
"It's exactly twenty-four million, I saw it clearly." As he spoke, whether intentionally or unintentionally, every word from the person in charge struck a nerve with Brother Liu.
"Brother Liu, you're such a great mentor! You gave Luo such a high-value deal to practice on, and he landed it. His promotion is practically guaranteed. From now on, we'll be equals, colleagues! No more mentor and student!"
"Hey Luo, how about you treat us to a meal after you get your commission? We won't overcharge you, just some boxed lunches from Xu's Fast Food, one for each of us, okay?"
Luo Peng was initially a little guilty that his secret had been discovered, but after hearing what the person in charge said, he suddenly felt more confident.
Yes, Brother Liu is nominally my mentor now, but after I'm officially hired at the end of the month, I'll also be a full-time employee who can take orders through the system.
Since we're all full-time employees, who's afraid of who!
Thinking of this, although Luo Peng still had that simple, honest smile on his face, he straightened his hunched back and readily agreed to the person in charge: "Okay, sure! Once the commission comes in, I'll treat everyone in the office to a boxed lunch from Xu's Fast Food!"
Ring ring—ring ring—
"Hello, I am Wang Fulong, the head of the bidding department at Xu's Catering. May I ask who you are?"
"Hello, Manager Wang. I am Zhang Shaosong, the person in charge of the Disabled Persons' Federation of Huijiang City. A friend of mine is interested in learning about your company's group meals. Would it be convenient for you to come, Manager Wang?"
"Sure, sure. I wonder if it would be convenient for you, Director Zhang, to tell me more about your friend's situation?"
"He's the director of a private hospital around here. The entire hospital, including temporary workers and students, has about 1,200 people. Everyone's tired of the supplier we used to work with and wanted a change, so your company was the first one I thought of."
After saying that, Zhang Shaosong changed the subject and said with a smile, "Although my friend here really likes your group meal style, he has a small request."
"Oh! Please go ahead, sir!"
"It's because your store isn't located in Huijiang City. You don't even have a store here, so the procedures won't go through, right?"
"The store location is not a problem. If this cooperation can be achieved, Xu's Catering will open a branch in Huijiang City!"
"I see." Zhang Shaosong breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and smiled, "Then I'm relieved. I wonder when you, Manager Wang, would have time to come to Huijiang City? I'd like to introduce you two."
"How about tomorrow? I happen to have time tomorrow!" Wang Fulong said decisively without even looking at the calendar.
"No problem! How about we meet at the Huijiang Hotel at 11:30 tomorrow morning?"
"Yes, yes, I'll definitely be there!"
After hanging up the phone, Wang Fulong excitedly pumped his fist in the air. This was the third call he had received that day from the head of the Disabled Persons' Federation of Haiyang City, a prefecture-level city in Zhejiang Province.
