Rebirth of Prosperous Officials and Merchants

In his mind, Zhang Hongtao and Xu Mao belonged to the same category. Although he could not be said to have a well-developed brain and simple limbs, he was definitely not very smart. With his IQ, he would not be able to utter such classic words.

Zhang Hongtao's words had the meaning of meeting each other with a smile, and if Lin Xi didn't drink up the wine in the glass, then he meant to continue to compete with the other party, and if he drank it all at once, it would be contrary to Lin Xi's original intention.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Xi stood up and said, "Zhang Hongtao, I agree with you, three years in high school is just a short journey in our life, we should all look forward, but I can't drink this glass of wine. I only took a sip of your father's toast just now, if I kill you now, it would be a bit impolite!"

This was the only reason Lin Xi could think of, but just as he finished speaking, Zhang Fu interjected, "Boss Lin, I don't want to get involved in the matter between you and Gouzi, you guys drink yours!"

Zhang Fu believed that Lin Xi's reluctance to drink a toast was to show his attitude, and now that he finally relaxed, he naturally spared no effort to support his son.

Although Zhang Hongtao didn't know Zhang Fu's thoughts, seeing this situation, he immediately raised his glass and said, "Lin Xi, I'll do it first as a respect!"

After saying this, Zhang Hongtao didn't give Lin Xi a chance to refuse, he raised his glass and drank it down.

Lin Xi's reluctance to toast has two reasons. First, he is worried about being drunk by the people of Fullerju. Second, he wants to send a clear signal that he will not let go.

What Zhang Hongtao did made Lin Xi quite unprepared, but he would never change his original intention just because of such a small episode.

After making up his mind, Lin Xi picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then said, "I can only drink so much!"

Seeing Lin Xi toasting, Zhang Hongtao was overjoyed. After hearing this, his face almost turned green, and he immediately said to Lin Xi angrily, "Lin Xi, are you really not giving me this face?"

If it was Lin Xi who apologized to Zhang Hongtao before, after all, the things between them were more like children's playing house, there was no deep hatred, and the other party wanted to reconcile, so he had the faint intention of refusing to do so, now that he heard this After speaking, he didn't have the slightest meaning in this regard.

"Zhang Hongtao, I've already said what I should say, so do what you want?" After Lin Xi said this, he ignored Zhang Hongtao and sat down on the chair.

Although Lin Xi didn't want to argue with Zhang Hongtao, he had his own principles in doing things, not to mention that under the current circumstances, he was even less likely to wrong himself.

Zhang Hongtao has always regarded himself as the Shaodong of Fullerju, and he felt a little embarrassed when he said that in front of so many department managers of Fullerju just now.What he didn't expect was that Lin Xi still didn't drink the wine in the glass, which made him feel like being slapped in the face face to face, how could he hold back!

"Lin Xi, what do you mean, don't you give me any face?" Zhang Hongtao said angrily.

Lin Xi didn't want to argue with him at first, but when he heard the questioning words, the fire in his heart came up, and he replied in a deep voice: "Why should I give you face, and besides, this wine is in my glass. What does it have to do with you whether you drink or not?"

Zhang Fu asked his son to toast for the purpose of testing Lin Xi, but to his surprise, his son actually got into an argument with Lin Xi over this matter, which Zhang Fu did not want to see anyway.

Zhang Fu made a decisive decision and shouted at Zhang Hongtao: "Zhang Hongtao sit down, why are you talking to President Lin?"

Zhang Fu was very clear about his son's disposition. In order to prevent the other party from listening to him, he stood up deliberately and winked at him desperately.

Zhang Hongtao had just been humiliated by Lin Xi, and now he was reprimanded by his father again, how could he bear it, and immediately yelled at Zhang Fu: "Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, where did Mr. Lin come from? What kind of thing is he?" , why should I be humble to him?"

Zhang Fu never thought that his son would say such words. After a moment of stupefaction, he stretched out his right hand, spread five fingers, and slapped Zhang Hongtao fiercely on the mouth, cursing in his mouth, "You son of a bitch, I will let you Nonsense, I will slap you to death!"

There was a snapping sound in everyone's ears, and five red marks immediately appeared on Zhang Hongtao's left cheek.

"You...you hit me!" Zhang Hongtao said angrily with tears in his voice.At the same time as he said this, he stood up and ran out the door. Before leaving, he gave Lin Xi a hard look.

All the people present were stunned in the face of this sudden situation. Liu Ping was the first to recover, stood up quickly, called Zhang Hongtao's name, and chased him out.

Zhang Fu was almost driven mad by his son's behavior. After he let out a sigh of relief, he said to Lin Xi, "Boss Lin, I'm really sorry, the dog is talking nonsense. Don't take it to heart. I'll take him to You made an apology!"

After Lin Xi heard Zhang Fu's words, with a gloomy face, he stood up holding the wine glass, touched him lightly, and then straightened his neck and drank it down in one gulp.

After putting the wine glass on the table, Lin Xi said to Zhang Fu who was still holding the wine glass in a daze: "Mr. Zhang, thank you for your kindness. I've finished the wine and the food. I still have something to do, so let's go first." One step, you take it slow!"

After Lin Xi finished speaking, he was ready to walk away.

Seeing that Lin Xi had dried up the wine in his glass, Zhang Fu was wondering, but after hearing this, he immediately regained his composure, and hurriedly said to him, "Mr. go again?"

When the other party said this, of course Lin Xi couldn't turn a deaf ear to it. After stopping in his tracks, he said in a deep voice, "Mr. Zhang has something to say, please tell me. Mr. Lin is all ears!"

Everyone at the scene saw Lin Xi's performance in their eyes and never started to despise him. This calmness and adaptability, not to mention teenagers in their twenties, even veterans like them who have been in the mall for a long time, may not be able to do it. To the extent of the other party.

Seeing Lin Xi standing still, Zhang Fu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.The words he was about to say had already been conceived in his mind, and he wanted to wait until the wine was over for three rounds and the food was over, but now it seemed that if he didn't say it, there would be no chance.

Zhang Fu first smiled at Lin Xi, and then said: "Boss Lin, to tell you the truth, I called all the department managers of Fulleju here today, just to formally apologize to you in front of everyone. of!"

When he said this, Zhang Fu stopped talking, and glanced at Lin Xi's face intentionally or unintentionally.When he saw the other party staring at him with such expressive eyes, Zhang Fu suddenly felt a sense of uncertainty in his heart.

To some extent, the reason why Lin Xi came to eat this meal today was because of Zhang Fu's words.Having been disturbed by Zhang Hongtao just now, he had no intention of entangled with Zhang Fu any longer, and made a gesture to leave, just to let Zhang Fu say what he said.

Even though he couldn't see through Lin Xi's thoughts, Zhang Fu still bit the bullet and said: "Boss Lin, what Fatty Zhang did before was very dishonest. Here, I solemnly apologize to you!"

When he said this, Zhang Fu stopped talking, and bowed respectfully to Lin Xi three times.

Seeing this situation, Lin Xi was still indifferent, and after Zhang Fu finished bowing, he said coldly: "Mr. Zhang, you don't have to be like this, colleagues are enemies, not to mention that Dongsheng and Fuleju are so close. I can understand part of your approach!"

Zhang Fu saw Lin Xi's performance in his eyes, and then thought of his son's actions just now, he thought to himself, this is a 20-year-old boy, God, did you make a mistake?

Zhang Fu had vaguely guessed the outcome of the matter at this moment, but he still had to make the last effort, as the old saying goes, you will never die until you reach the Yellow River, and you will not shed tears until you see the coffin.

Zhang Fu coughed lightly, and continued: "Mr. Lin, this time, I, Fatty Zhang, did something wrong. Please raise your hand and give Fuleju a chance. As long as you nod, no matter what conditions you ask , I agree!"

As soon as Zhang Fu's words came out, everyone in Fuleju was stunned on the spot.

Before that, although they heard that the fate of Fuleju was in Lin Xi's hands, it was one thing to hear it, but another thing to see it with their own eyes.Mr. Zhang has always been a very strong existence in their eyes. It is really surprising that he would be so humble and begging for help.

Lin Xi noticed that when Zhang Fu said these words, his face was full of sincerity. If he hadn't seen too many intrigues and tricks in his previous life, he might have believed his words, but now, Zhang Fu's acting is getting more and more It was devotion, and Lin Xiyue was determined to slap him to death.

Zhang Fu, the majestic leader of the furniture industry in Mingzhou, humiliated and begged for mercy in front of so many subordinates. Zhang Fu will definitely remember this humiliation in his heart.If he is allowed to pass this time, waiting for Lin Xi and Dong Sheng will be a disaster.

Lin Xi took a small step diagonally, staggered some angles with Zhang Fu, squeezed out a smile from the corner of his mouth, and said, "Mr. Zhang, I am very moved by your words, but we are talking about business, talking about these things. False words don't seem to mean anything?"

Lin Xi said that without waiting for Zhang Fu to answer, he continued: "I hope Mr. Zhang will remember this sentence, if you come out to mess around, you will have to pay it back sooner or later! Take it easy, everyone, Mr. Lin is leaving, goodbye!"

When Lin Xi walked to the door of the private room, he only heard a muffled bang in his ear, and then there was a mess behind him, and Mr. Zhang and Mr. Zhang shouted one after another...
