The sweet wife is poisonous: what's the matter with the emperor

Chapter 73
In the end, Jiujiu didn’t wait for the man to come back. The company called. He had previously chosen a tourism project, but no one had interested in that place before. The company had already reached an agreement with the owner of the land, but the news leaked somewhere. Recently, many powerful companies have begun to pay attention to this piece of land. They thought it was hopeless, but unexpectedly, the owner of the tourist site called the company himself and wanted to meet with Premier Chen of the company to discuss.

This is really a good thing, the only thing that worries the executive manager is that Jiujiu is too young and has no qualifications. Talking to these old men is afraid that they will offend people without knowing it.

This tourism project was proposed by Jiujiu to buy, and she didn't need to do any impromptu homework for the plan, she just looked through the information of the land owner.

Apart from knowing that she is a woman surnamed Dong in her 50s, I really don't know anything else.

Jiujiu is much calmer than the executive manager. She seems to have given up her studies halfway, and it's not just because of her young age, but it's not the case.

This piece of land was negotiated by her on behalf of the Chen family in the last life, and she had never met the owner of the land at that time, but the negotiation was possible in the last life, and Jiujiu also has confidence in this life.

The meeting place was a private club on the outskirts of the city. It was designed in an ancient mansion, relatively high-end and relatively quiet.

After showing the invitation letter, the graceful waiter in cheongsam led Jiujiu to turn around the curved corridor on the water and the path in the mountains, and stood still in front of a three-story octagonal building, beckoning Jiujiu to go in by herself.

There was no one in the lobby on the first floor, and there was a faint voice of conversation upstairs. Jiujiu paused, then walked towards the second floor.

The second floor is a place to enjoy singing and dancing. It may be a matter of the owner's preference. Although a man and a woman are dancing on the circular stage, there is no musical accompaniment.

There is a table and chairs on the opposite side of the stage, and a row of people are sitting.

To say a row is actually a bit exaggerated, but this is the first impression Jiujiu saw after going upstairs.

There was a row of elderly women, but although each of them wore simple clothes, they couldn't conceal the elegance and luxury in their bones. Although they were old, they were not stooped, and they talked and laughed happily, which was enviable.

It is estimated that they saw Jiujiu who went upstairs, and the few people who spoke were all silent in tacit understanding, looking at Jiujiu in unison, and looking up and down in unison.

Where is it talking about business, it is clearly like a few ladies from your family trying to decide on a good blue and white porcelain vase.

Jiujiu felt numb in her heart, but she didn't change her face. She smiled and walked slowly towards the tables of several people. These women stared at her one by one, and didn't intend to make a sound. Jiujiu couldn't just walk over and sit down. I had no choice but to stand still in front of the table, smiled and saluted, "I didn't expect Mrs. Dong to be gathering with all the wives. Forgive me for my blindness. I was dazzled for a while, and I didn't do my homework for a while. Now I am so entangled. I don't know which one." It's the owner."

"Look, look, it's not easy to be a businessman. You have such a sharp mouth at such a young age!" A woman in lavender smiled and looked at the woman in the middle of the seat who was about 50 years old.

"It's good to have a sharp tongue. It can just relieve boredom. If you are a boring gourd, it will be so boring to be together in the future."

"Stop talking, you guys are here to discuss business with me today, why are you talking nonsense here?" A curly-haired woman next to the center got up, looked at Chen Jiujiu with a smile and said, "I asked you to come here, These are all my sisters, they came here specially for me because they were afraid that I would know nothing about business. Now, this is Mrs. Chu."

The one who stretched out her finger was the woman sitting on the main seat who had been looking at Jiujiu all the time.

Jiujiu said smoothly, "Hi Madam Dong, Madam Chu, my surname is Chen and my name is Jiujiu. You can call me Jiujiu."

After introducing Mrs. Chu, Mrs. Dong pointed to a chair beside her to signal Jiujiu to sit down, but she had no intention of introducing anyone else.

At the bottom of Jiujiu's heart, Monk Zhang Er was confused. If he really wasn't proficient in business, he should have invited someone who was an expert, but it seemed that he had invited some old girlfriends...

And why do they all look at her so weirdly?

"I didn't intend to give the land to your company at first. Many companies have more financial and material resources than you. This land was my dowry back then. Although I wanted to sell it, I wanted it to have a good place to go. .”

Fortunately, Mrs. Dong finally got to the point.

"Our company is indeed a newcomer in the industry. In terms of qualifications and financial resources, it is completely inferior to those big companies, but we are more serious." Jiujiu handed the prepared planning materials to Mrs. Dong.

Without waiting for her to explain again, Mrs. Dong has already picked up the topic, "If you don't do things seriously now, you can't do anything. I can ask you out for an interview because I have heard about your life experience and because I think your life experience is pitiful, so I just wanted to give you a chance."

Chen Jiujiu had thought about countless reasons for this so-called opportunity, but she never thought that Mrs. Dong would give herself such an interview opportunity only because of her background.

Jiujiu opened her mouth, and before she could speak, Mrs. Dong changed her words, "By the way, the company under the name of the Chen family is managed by your younger brother, right? Sit tight in that seat!"

Jiu Jiu:  …

She silently put away her smile, and looked at Mrs. Dong lightly.

This sounds too harsh, but it is the truth.

But even if it's a big truth, Jiujiu can't go against Mrs. Dong's will. It's a trivial matter that the business can't be negotiated, and it can't violate her three views because of the business.

"He is not my younger brother. My mother only gave birth to me." Jiujiu corrected in a gentle voice.

"Oh, that's right, look at my mouth." Madam Dong was not angry, but looked at Madam Chu with a smile, "Look, sister, let me just say that I am not good at talking. Offended the little girl."

The women all smiled and glanced at Jiujiu, then sneered, "I really don't deserve to enter the Chen family with such a background, and I don't know what the old man of the Chen family thinks."

"What can this kind of businessman think? The son is the most important thing. It doesn't matter what his background is, as long as he is a leader."

"That's right. To put it bluntly, these are nouveau riche!"

……

The few women united in a moment, and sneered at the upstart's various expressions.

Jiu Jiu, who came to discuss business, was completely kicked out of the sovereign circle, because she couldn't talk about the topics of these women.

The formation of a century-old wealthy family did not happen overnight. These real wealthy nobles despised those nouveau riche who once became rich and called themselves wealthy. It was not what they said about Jiujiu.

However, Jiujiu, who is a businessman, was more or less embarrassed to hear it.

"By the way, how is your mother's health now?" Mrs. Chu has been looking at Chen Jiujiu's expression amidst the discussion among the crowd, and she asked Chen Jiujiu such a question abruptly without saying a word.

As soon as she made a sound, everyone stopped talking and followed her gaze to Chen Jiujiu.

"My mother was taken abroad by her uncle." Jiujiu paused, and then said, "Heart failure, I am looking for a matching heart, if, if the ladies have the resources in this area. Thank you for your kindness, when the time comes Jiujiu is willing to make every effort to change."

"He's a filial one." Madam Dong sighed, glanced at Madam Chu and turned to ask Jiujiu, "Does your father know about your mother?"

Jiujiu smiled, "I probably don't know, no one wants to tell him."

"Your father treats you and your mother like this, don't you have any ideas in your mind?" Mrs. Dong didn't intend to stop the conversation, she stared at Jiujiu with burning eyes, trying to find the answer on Jiujiu's face.

Jiujiu looked back at Mrs. Dong calmly, and slowly shook her head, "I just want to live with my mother."

These words cover too much area and have too many implications, but none of the women present are easy-going.

"You are so young, why don't you go to school?" A woman on the other side said, "Girls should learn more, so that they won't be looked down upon by their husbands in the future."

"If you want to learn something, you can learn it without going to school." Jiujiu deeply felt that these women were not here to discuss business, but to gossip about her.But she is only a junior here, she can't do the thing of throwing up her sleeves and leaving.Well, it's time to spend time with these women.

"By the way, I heard that your old man is already discussing marriage with the Su family. If your old man doesn't have a stroke, you may already be a member of the Su family." A woman on the farthest side suddenly yelled.

"I'm still young, so I have no plans to discuss marriage for the time being." Jiujiu turned her head and said to the woman seriously, "It's even more impossible to discuss marriage with the Su family. You must have misunderstood."

"It's okay to meet the right person!" Mrs. Dong said aside, "You are a good boy, and you will definitely meet someone who treats you well in the future."

"Yeah." Jiujiu bowed her head shyly, "It's too early, I haven't thought about it yet."

These women, shouldn't they be merciful and act as matchmakers for her?Together with this idea, Jiujiu immediately became one head and two big. She seemed to remember that she was here to discuss business today...

"It's not too early, girls, you have to pick early, and if it's later, others will pick the leftovers." Mrs. Dong said earnestly.

"By the way, children nowadays like to fall in love freely. How about you, have you found one?" The woman next to Mrs. Dong interjected.

Jiu Jiu:  …

The enthusiasm of Chinese aunts is absolutely regardless of class level.

"What? You have someone you like?" Jiujiu didn't respond, and Mrs. Dong asked enthusiastically, "Tell me which young talent it is, maybe I can help you build a bridge! Don't worry, although your mother In foreign countries, the elders are not around, but we can count as a cooperation, you can treat me as your elder."

Jiu Jiu:  …

She really couldn't stand it anymore, oh, oh, this is more tiring than playing with Shana, why did this business scene suddenly become a matchmaking meeting?

"I'm still young, so I really haven't thought about it." Jiujiu replied with a puzzled face, "My mother's health is not good, and I just want to protect my mother for the time being."

"There is no conflict with your mother. You child, if you don't want to say it, you don't want to say it. Why did you bring up a mother?" Mrs. Dong looked left and right looking for an alliance with a dissatisfied expression, "Look , You see, it’s rare that I was rejected when I was so enthusiastic, it’s really a big embarrassment.”

"Yeah, yeah, with those of us who are about to die, what else is there to be embarrassed to say."

……

"Then tell me, what kind of boys do you like?" A woman asked again.

Jiu Jiu:  …

This topic seems to be really endless, Jiujiu was entangled, and said softly, "Like is just a momentary thing, they are all young and frivolous dreams, I never thought about it so much, I just think that in the future, I will find someone who can be with you." It doesn’t matter if the person I’m going to go on with my life has more money or less, whether he’s a young talent or not.”

This time the aunts were all silent, and Jiujiu, who lowered her head in a shy manner, didn't notice that these silent aunts all glanced at Mrs. Chu in unison.

Mrs. Dong didn't think about selling this land permanently, she wanted to use other people's hands to develop this land.

Knowing Mrs. Dong's wishes, Jiujiu's proposals are all aimed at how to develop this tourist area in an original way, rather than rebuilding it.

But Mrs. Dong just casually flipped through two pages of the proposal, and Jiujiu felt that she didn't even glance at the proposal.

I thought that this business deal was a long way off topic, and there was no possibility of resuming the talks, but at the end of the day, Mrs. Dong threw Jiujiu a word and asked her to set a time to discuss the signing of the contract.

Sitting in the car driven by the executive manager himself, Jiujiu couldn't recover.

Why does it feel like everything just happened was like a dream?

Seeing Jiujiu's face, the executive manager also knew what the result was. He comforted Jiujiu and said, "Our company's strength is too far from those of the bidding companies. It is normal to be eliminated. General manager, you have done your best. We also tried our best, general manager, don't think too much."

Hearing this, Jiujiu turned to look at the executive manager in a daze, "Do you also think our chances of winning the bid are not high?"

The executive manager nodded very positively, "The chance is almost zero."

"Yeah, I think so too." Jiujiu said, "After I went in, guess what they said to me?"

The executive manager suddenly realized that the owner of this house should be laughing at Jiujiu's young age and overreaching, which is why Jiujiu was so frustrated, and hurriedly said, "You don't have to worry about what these people say, many people have eyes. Don't know Mount Tai."

Have eyes but don't know Mount Tai?

Something flashed through Jiujiu's mind, and before she could grasp it, the executive manager's words interrupted her thoughts, "General Manager, where shall I take you now?"

"Let's go to the company. I think I will have to trouble you for a few days. Mrs. Dong asked us to sort out the signing of the contract, and she will call us later."

"General manager? You, you?" Hearing such a sentence suddenly, the executive manager slammed the brakes to stop the car, and stared at Chen Jiujiu in a daze, as if he felt that he had just hallucinated.
