Chapter 178 Wanting the Land in the South of the City
"Cease...cede land?! What does that mean?" Zhai Yongshou and Guo Gang both widened their eyes, swallowed, and repeated Rong Mei's words in disbelief.
"Of course it means literally." Rong Mei answered them again impatiently.
After he finished speaking, he stood up and changed his previous coldness. He smiled gently at the two of them and politely invited them to sit down. "Two brothers, don't just stand there. If you have anything to say, let's sit down and discuss it slowly. We can't hurt the harmony, right?"
Zhai Yongshou and Guo Gang obviously couldn't keep up with Rong Mei's pace.
Discuss? Don't let the relationship get damaged?
Who was that person who was so arrogant just now?
I originally thought that I was a person who could change my expression quickly, but compared with the person in front of me, I was still a little bit behind.
Sometimes he has a cold face and refuses to accept apologies, and sometimes he invites people to sit down in a friendly manner.
Alas, the Hongmen Banquet, a naked Hongmen Banquet.
But this was the Hongmen Banquet that I hosted myself. Who would believe it if I told others about it?
Cede territory and pay compensation? They are treating them as Japanese.
Rong Mei's hot-and-cold attitude made the two of them feel trapped in their chests and unable to evacuate. However, they had to obey the law of survival of the fittest, which was really cowardly.
The two had no choice but to sit down again and have a good "discuss" with Rong Mei.
Guo Gang's smile was uglier than crying. "Yes, we can't hurt the relationship. I just don't know how to divide the land you mentioned. Hey, I don't have any land to divide. If you want to talk about land, I have a house, but my family lives in that house. There is a small yard in the house. My mother usually grows some vegetables in it. If you don't mind, then I'll leave my small yard for you to grow vegetables?"
Speaking of ceding land, Guo Gang was somewhat aware of it. As a town dweller, where could he get the land? The only thing he got from his workplace was a house, which could be considered the land that Rong Mei mentioned. But the whole family lived in that house, and they couldn't just move out and live on the street.
Guo Gang felt a headache and felt anxious when he thought about how Rong Mei was really cruel and insisted on having his house. That was his only property, and he could never give it to her as compensation.
If you don't want to pay, then what can you use to pay it back? In the end, it's all about money.
But now he really had no money to give, so what could he do? He could only write an IOU. Guo Gang even thought about taking out his pen and dividing the land. Fighting with Rong Mei was not only a financial destruction to him, but also a mental torture to him.
Rong Mei smiled and said, "Director Guo, what are you talking about? If you say that, people who don't know me would think I'm a man-eating tiger that doesn't even spare the elderly and children. I've already said that we can't hurt the harmony."
As he spoke, he stood up, took the wine bottle on the table, and poured wine into Guo Gang and Zhai Yongshou's glasses, with a smile on his face, "There's no need for Director Guo to cut the land himself. Brother Xu and I have set up a small construction company and are planning to do some work."
Zhai Yongshou was a smart guy. When he heard that Rong Mei had always ordered Guo Gang and had not mentioned his name, he immediately took the wine glass that Rong Mei had filled and handed over, held it up with both hands, and said with a smile, "Congratulations. I didn't expect that a girl like you would start a company at such a young age. You will definitely become a big boss in the future."
This time, Rong Mei finally picked up the wine glass and said, "It's just a small company. It has just started. If we want to make a fortune, we need Director Zhai's help."
After saying that, he clinked glasses with Zhai Yongshou. When clinking glasses, the rim of the cup was pressed down slightly to lift up the bottom of Zhai Yongshou's cup.
Zhai Yongshou was surprised and delighted by Rong Mei's action. At the same time, he felt relieved. "It's my duty. You are too polite. You came to me, which means you think highly of me. If you have any problems in the future, just tell me, your elder brother. I will definitely help you with anything I can do."
Although he had offended Rong Mei, his crime was not committed by Guo Gang. At most, he was only an accomplice of Guo Gang. It was also a helpless choice at the time. Afterwards, he also actively expressed his position and took the initiative to bear the financial compensation. At this time, every minute and every second, he was grateful for his initiative.
Guo Gang, who was standing by, watched the two of them clink their glasses and drink the wine in one gulp.
Zhai Yongshou put down his wine glass and praised Rong Mei, "You have a good alcohol tolerance, sister."
Rong Mei put the empty wine glass on the table and said, "I have run into Director Zhai. I won't be polite. If I encounter any problems in the future, I will speak directly to Brother Zhai."
Is this a reconciliation?
Until this moment, Guo Gang was still a little confused. He couldn't see the situation clearly and didn't know what Rong Mei was up to.
She is obviously just a girl who has just grown out, but the twists and turns in her mind are more than those of a man who has lived for decades. And this man surnamed Zhai is also a cunning old man.
Guo Gang was not to be outdone. He picked up the wine glass in front of him and held it in front of Rong Mei. "That's right, sister, if you need my help, just let me know. I, Guo Gang, will do it for you even if it means risking my life."
Is Zhai Yongshou the only one who can say nice words? Is Guo Gang incapable of saying them?
He can speak more beautifully!!!
The corners of Rong Mei's charming mouth twitched slightly, and she stretched out her fair and slender hand with a smile and gently picked up the wine bottle on the table.
However, she seemed to have not heard what Guo Gang had just said and did not make any response at all. She just pointed the bottle mouth at the wine glass in front of her, slowly tilted the bottle, and let the amber liquid flow into the glass.
During this short yet long wait, Guo Gang felt as if he was sitting on a pile of sharp needles. He was uncomfortable all over and every second felt like a year. His hands holding the wine glass were suspended in mid-air, unable to move forward or backward.
I want to take it back, but I don't dare. I want to drink it all in one gulp, but Rong Mei hasn't expressed her opinion yet. What should I do if I make her unhappy?
In this way, he could only maintain that posture awkwardly, secretly groaning in his heart and suffering mentally.
Rong Mei refilled her glass with wine.
Just when Guo Gang was about to give up, Rong Mei finally and slowly raised the wine glass.
A pair of blue eyes looked at Guo Gang, "Since Director Guo has said so, I won't beat around the bush. I said I want land, the land in the south of the city."
"Gudong." Guo Gang's heart sank.
She had such a charming face, but how could her mouth be so poisonous? The words she said burned him directly.
Rong Mei casually continued, "Why, Director Guo doesn't want to give up this piece of land? He just said he would go through mountains of swords and cauldrons of oil..."
Guo Gang complained, "Sister, you want that piece of land in the south of the city, but it's not something you can get by going through fire and water. This will send me to hell. There are so many people eyeing this piece of land, not just us, there are other wolves too. Everyone knows that this piece of land is fertile, and there are so many big companies here. Sister, you want me to deliver this piece of meat to the door of your small company, this..."
"You're not just going to let me die... woooo~"
At the end, Guo Gang even put his wine glass on the table with a bang, and burst into tears with his head covered.
