Chapter 737 The Bargaining Chip to Control Old Black 1
Chapter 737 The Chips to Control Old Black +1
Luo Yan was very confused about what had happened to him.
Everyone present was well aware of the situation, but without Lin Yuan's permission, no one spoke up.
Liu Qingqing glanced at Lin Yuan, and seeing that he didn't respond, she could only say, "Don't worry, since we were able to hire you, it's naturally because you have value. In business, no one does a losing deal."
This explanation wasn't particularly clear, and it only made Luo Yan more worried. He even had a thought of backing out. "Maybe we should just forget about it. I know this has something to do with you, Grandpa, right? It's not that I don't want to be someone who gets ahead through connections, but I know my own abilities. Taking too much makes me uneasy."
Luo Wensong was at a loss for words.
He worked as a doorman at the Peace Hotel for a year or two before finally getting this opportunity. He also used his last few days of lucidity to try to find a good way out for his bloodline.
But this kid is really something else, he's even acting up. How little respect does he have for his grandfather?
Moreover, given his ruthless and decisive nature, it's astonishing that he has such an honest and simple-minded grandson; one wonders if it's some kind of genetic mutation.
Anyway, he doesn't want to talk right now.
"Xiao Luo, let me put it this way, your grandfather has made great contributions to the store. So great that we can't repay him. You coming here is like receiving some of his blessings. Of course, you can refuse if you want, but then we'll just have to consider it as us owing your grandfather something."
Lin Yuan finally spoke.
The fact that the ghost of Luo Wensong, who was resurrected after his death, was brought to the store to act as the door dog suggests that, although this is not the real Luo Wensong, there is still some connection between them.
Given Luo Wensong's contributions during the Republic of China era, this is unfair to him.
Before Lin Yuan regained consciousness, the "shop manager" personality he had separated knew nothing and genuinely believed it was just an ordinary dog. What could he do?
Later, I came to my senses, but everything had already been settled, and there was no need to change anything. At most, I would just offer some compensation, like it is now.
As he said, if Luo Yan really doesn't want to accept this blessing, then so be it.
If you owe someone, you owe them. If they don't want your money back, what else is there to say?
Before Luo Yan could speak, Luo Wensong hissed, "Think about your wife and children, look at the kind of life they're living! This job, I risked my life for!"
Luo Yan opened his mouth, but in the end, he could only lower his head helplessly.
Luo Wensong looked at him with exasperation and said angrily, "Why are you looking down? You're applying for a job right now. If you want to prove that you're not just sponging off your parents, then work hard to learn and do your job. Don't put on such an annoying attitude!"
"I got it, Grandpa."
Luo Yan took a deep breath, and when he looked up again, his eyes had become resolute.
Seeing this, He Yuelian didn't stay idle any longer. "Luo Yan, I am the store manager of the Dahai City branch. What Manager Liu can give you, I can give you as well. Moreover, you should know about Dahai City. It's a very nice and livable city where pink peach blossoms fall all year round. When the time comes, you can have your wife and children move here together. Living there will make you feel much better."
Tong Qian wasn't idle either, and said in a deep voice, "Luo Yan, I'm preparing to open a branch. Although it hasn't opened yet, it's already in the preparation process and will probably open in Dajing City in a few days. As you know, Dajing City is our core city. The benefits of living there, whether it's your wife's career development or your son's education, will be the best."
Before Luo Yan could even speak, Liu Qingqing interjected, "Education and development issues can be resolved in Da Dong City just as well; we don't necessarily have to go to Da Jing City. Our shop has a wide network of connections, Luo Yan, this isn't the issue you need to consider."
He Yuelian also unusually stood on the same side as Liu Qingqing, "Little Liu is right, that's why we didn't mention this matter just now."
Tong Qian didn't mind and changed the subject, saying, "Let's talk about our store then. Although it's newly opened, that's precisely why we have more room to grow. I usually work here, so the branch needs a reliable person to manage it. Luo Yan, I can promise you that as long as you're capable enough, I'd even give you the position of branch manager."
The three of them were all talking about the conditions they could offer, making quite a scene.
After changing his mindset, Luo Yan listened attentively, analyzed the situation, and was moved.
Just then, a figure burst in. "Sorry I'm late, Brother Yuan. Can I still proceed with the interview process now?"
The person who arrived was none other than Yang Jian!
He was delayed by a sudden paranormal event and arrived a little late, but he still made it in time.
Lin Yuan naturally wouldn't refuse. Today, he was just looking forward to watching the show with Ghost Messenger Lao Fan and this matter in front of him, so he naturally didn't mind if it became even more exciting.
Yang Jian breathed a sigh of relief. "Luo Yan, hello. I'm the manager of the Dachang City branch. As long as you're willing to come to our store, you can name your terms!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingqing and He Yuelian glared at him angrily, and even Tong Qian frowned.
Lin Yuan watched with amusement, not intervening in the fight between the four. His attitude, however, annoyed Luo Wensong. "So, you called my grandson here for a job interview just to entertain me?"
"Old Luo, that's not very nice of you. I did give your grandson a good job, didn't I? Would he have such a good job anywhere else?" Lin Yuan retorted, displeased. Luo Wensong stared at him, trying to see who this man was, but no matter how hard he looked, with his hundred or eighty years of life experience, he couldn't see through Lin Yuan's eyes.
It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul, but this window seems to have been covered by a curtain called "clarity," making it impossible for him to see through what is behind those eyes.
Could it be that I'm overthinking things, and this is just the "store manager's" reward for me, without any of "his" will involved?
"Old Luo, didn't you talk to your grandson before you came, or give him any advice?" Lin Yuan asked curiously, not paying attention to Luo Wensong's scrutiny.
Before Luo Wensong became a piece of the puzzle for the Peace Hotel, there might have been a slight chance that the old man could see through him.
But now, Luo Wensong, with his supernatural aura, including himself, has become a piece of the puzzle of the Peace Hotel.
Lin Yuan can give him the freedom to act, but he can also let him see what he needs to see.
In front of these people, he didn't need to hide anything or pretend at all. Everything was simply according to his own will, very simple and easy.
Luo Wensong couldn't see through it, so he simply stopped looking. "My son has his own destiny. I can make a choice for him once, but I can't make choices for him for a lifetime. Mr. Lin, I'm very grateful for this arrangement you've made for me."
In the end, Luo Yan still chose Tong Qian's branch that hadn't opened yet.
The reason is nothing more than the wife's career development and the children's education.
Although it's hard to admit, Dajing City's educational strength and development prospects are indeed the most promising. Even Liu Qingqing, He Yuelian, and Yang Jian could all ensure that their sons receive the best education, or even freely choose schools in Dajing City.
The problem is, if he works in Beijing, the family can stay together and won't have to be separated.
Moreover, he was inspired to make more contributions instead of living a life of idleness and complacency, relying on the legacy of his predecessors.
That's not his personality.
Tong Qian was very happy about this, because in this way, the headquarters had another bargaining chip in the race to win over the Watchdog Cerberus Old Black.
Although it may sound harsh, that's the truth.
"Xiao Tong, I'm giving you a day off today. Go and arrange things for Xiao Luo."
As a boss, Lin Yuan was quite good, giving Tong Qian, Luo Yan, and Luo Wensong a relatively relaxed schedule, which Luo Wensong remembered.
Although, this was of no value to Lin Yuan.
During the day, people come and go, but by evening, around six o'clock, almost everyone has left. However, Fang Shiming and Wei Jing are still on the second floor, waiting like a wife (husband) waiting for her, which shows their sincerity.
Lu Zhiwen didn't leave either.
Having swallowed the pill, he had completely given up struggling. Being able to stay in the Peace Hotel and experience the emotions of normal people made him very comfortable.
Lin Yuan didn't mind, but he still asked, "Old Zhang, will Old Fan wake up today?"
Whether you wake up or not, isn't it all up to you to decide?
Zhang Bohua thought to himself, "Ever since I came to stay at the Peace Hotel, my mentality has become much younger. I guess it's not going to work. His injuries are quite serious. He'll probably be gone by tomorrow."
"Okay, alright then. Xiao Guo, go upstairs and tell Xiao Wei and Xiao Fang not to waste their time today," Lin Yuan said.
Guo Fan nodded and then went upstairs.
A short while later, he came downstairs with Fang Shiming and Wei Jing.
"Brother Yuan, I'm Lao Fan's partner. He'll let me keep watch over him tonight in the room on the second floor. That way, if anything happens, I can go directly to Old Zhang," Fang Shiming said urgently.
Wei Jing glanced at him and said coldly, "Hypocritical."
Fang Shiming was annoyed, but he knew it was no longer appropriate to argue with the "shop manager" in front of him. Otherwise, he would lose points and annoy the "shop manager," which would be the biggest loss.
However, Lin Yuan frowned at his statement. "Old Zhang will probably be away for a while tonight. It's the fifth day since Old Zhang left, and it's also the time for the big banquet. Everyone will have to go and work overtime. Xiao Fang, you haven't forgotten about this, have you?"
