Senior sister, I really don’t have any improper thoughts about you!

Chapter 362 Jiang Ning, Be My Goddaughter

Li Zhengsheng was very curious.

What could a large company like Mars lead the way in discussing with him, the second-in-command of a prefecture-level city?

So he accepted the invitation.

Led by the secretary, we came to the special meeting room for meetings.

As a result, I just walked to the door.

I saw the top leader of Jiangzhou City and a tall white man.

Standing at the door of the conference room, smiling and shaking hands.

Judging from the harmonious atmosphere, I'm afraid they have gained a lot.

In this regard.

Li Zhengsheng frowned.

But he changed his expression and walked over with a smile on his face.

"Dai City..."

"So you are here too."

Hear sounds.

The top leader turned around and greeted Li Zhengsheng happily.

"Li Shi, you are here too?"

"It seems that our Mr. Locke is also quite interested in the West District New Town project..."

The first sentence was addressed to Li Zhengsheng, but the second sentence was directed at the white man.

"Daishi is joking."

“It’s all business.”

...

"Yeah."

"Look, I forgot about making money."

"Okay, you guys talk, I'll be leaving first."

talking.

The top leader and Li Zhengsheng nodded, then left the meeting room with a few people.

At this time.

Li Zhengsheng suddenly realized.

From the beginning till now.

The white man in front of me seemed to speak Chinese.

Suddenly, he was a little surprised:
"Mr. Locke, huh?"

"You speak Chinese well. I rarely see Americans who are as fluent in Chinese as you are."

Hear this.

The white man immediately laughed.

The very hearty kind.

"I have lived in Haicheng for eight years."

“I can speak a lot in Chinese, but if I were asked to write, it would be real hell.”

This self-deprecating joke made Li Zhengsheng laugh out loud.

My impression of this person suddenly improved a lot.

then.

At the other party's polite invitation.

Li Zhengsheng, along with his secretary Xiao Lu and the man named Locke, walked into the meeting room.

Just went in.

Take a quick glance.

There are five people in total, including Locke.

Three men and two women.

Compared to two young girls in their twenties.

Those three middle-aged men should be the core figures of the representatives.

So after nodding politely to the two women, Li Zhengsheng turned his attention to the middle-aged men headed by Locke.

"What are your names?"

"Mars, Inc., Locke Jones."

The one who brought the group introduced himself and also introduced the people around him one by one.

The first was a young woman standing behind him.

A departure from the standard blonde hair.

This young woman has dark brown hair.

very long.

Paired with a face with distinct features.

Even a man like Li Zhengsheng who holds traditional Chinese aesthetics.

Everyone thinks this face is beautiful.

"Dolly Mars, my assistant."

Then, he pointed to the next white man with a beard.

"Tyson Company, William Falk."

Looking at this typical European man.

Li Zhengsheng nodded.

Move on to the next one.

"Magpie's Nest, Henry Davis."

"Baojie, Anna Stone."

A man and a woman, two people introduced at the same time.

Standard foreigner appearance.

It's just that his skin is a bit dark, and it looks like he has a lot of Latin blood in him.

But this evaluation of appearance is just a thought.

Then Li Zhengsheng couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Because he had actually heard of the names of these companies.

All of them are large American companies.

Take the Dove chocolate that his daughter likes to buy, for example.

It's a product from Mars, Incorporated.

There is also coffee from Quechao, poultry from Tyson, and daily chemical products from Baojie.

And now.

These are all companies that are very well-known in the world.

They actually sent representatives to his compound in this third-tier city.

First find the top leader, and then find him as the second-in-command.

This made him feel absurd, but also a little wary.

After all, pie doesn't fall from the sky for no reason.

"Hello, hello."

"Welcome everyone to Jiangzhou."

"I wonder how you feel about Jiangzhou?"

The voice just fell.

The secretary Xiao Lu behind him tried to translate Li Zhengsheng's words into English.

But I don't know if it's because I'm not good at English.

Many of the words he spoke were spoken haltingly.

Hear the words.

The Latin woman from Baojie Company smiled and said:

"It's okay Mr. Li."

"We who work in China all know some Chinese."

“Basic communication is fine.”

Hear this.

Li Zhengsheng glared at his secretary Xiao Lu beside him without saying a word.

Then he smiled broadly.

"That's good."

"At least we don't have to worry about our words being misinterpreted."

then.

After a few casual chats.

Let’s get to the point.

"Li Shi, you are actually aware of our purpose."

“I just want to contribute to the construction of the new city in the west district.”

“But unfortunately.”

"You don't seem to want us to interfere in the construction of this city."

"Can I ask what the reason is?"

Faced with Locke's direct questioning.

Li Zhengsheng was a little uncomfortable for a while.

I was in a daze.

laughed:

"Oh, that's right."

“The construction of the new city in the west district has been planned for some time.”

"Several major sectors have now entered or are about to enter the construction stage."

"Now make some changes to the plan."

“It may lead to many subsequent changes.”

"so…"

Li Zhengsheng didn't finish his words.

But the meaning is clear.

Just tell these foreigners.

You are late.

Want to play.

Wait until next time.

This made several foreigners who understood what was said look at each other.

Everyone had a frown on their face to varying degrees.

After a private whisper.

The foreigner named Henry in Magpie's Nest.

Speaking poor Chinese.

He asked out loud little by little.

"Then, is it feasible for us to merge the enterprises?"

Fusion Enterprise?

"Financing?"

Hearing this, Henry nodded.

In this regard.

Li Zhengsheng thought for a while.

“I have no objection to financing.”

"But we cannot occupy the market in the name of financing and harm the business environment in Jiangzhou."

These words were said by a little girl when she was discussing a problem with him.

Li Zhengsheng now directly said this as a warning to these foreign investors.

really.

When those people heard the voice, their faces looked a little unhappy.

Then there was another round of discussion in a foreign language.

moment.

Locke from Mars said word by word:

"Lee City."

“We have a very good mutually beneficial cooperation program here.”

"I wonder if you are interested?"

.........

A quarter of an hour later.

The parking lot of Jiangzhou compound.

Several foreigners got into a business car.

Wait until the door is closed.

William from Tyson Company made a somewhat dissatisfied voice.

"Damn it! Orientals are so difficult to deal with!"

"The answer is always just consider, consider, consider!"

"My demented aunt doesn't think as much as they do!"

...

"Dear Mr. William."

"I wouldn't mind talking business with your aunt."

"If she can give me million-level city resources."

Hear the teasing.

William snorted angrily, took out a cigarette from his pocket, opened the window, and smoked silently.

See this.

The Latin woman next to him comforted him:

"cheer up."

"At least the person in front gave us the cooperation rights in the development zone."

"It's not a wasted trip."

Hear the words.

Locke, who was stroking his chin in thought, suddenly turned his gaze to the young woman sitting in the passenger seat.

"Ms. Mars."

"I wonder what you think of the person in charge of the new city construction?"

Hear this.

Everyone in the car looked towards the young woman.

In this regard.

The young woman just thought for a moment.

"He doesn't want us to interfere in his territory."

"Like The Lion King."

"But sometimes he is like a shrewd hunter, waiting for prey of sufficient size to come to him."

...

"Then our plan."

...

"Not urgent."

"Let's go to the next node city first."

"We'll talk about the rest after we go around."

------

When Miss Jiang learned about Lao Ma's arrangements from Lao Guo.

The little face suddenly puffed up with anger.

He also ignored the students coming and going in the corridor.

Keep your mouth shut.

"Lao Guo."

"You are not kind!"

"I trusted you so much!"

"You can't even handle this!"

Hearing this, Guo Ming was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

He took a few steps back.

He gave the middle of the road to other students and waved to Jiang Ning.

"You're too busy blaming me, girl."

"I have perjured myself for you."

"But Principal Ma and the others specifically asked you to go on stage."

???

Miss Jiang was just about to say something.

But she was sensitive enough to notice the key words in Lao Guo's spoken language.

"them?"

"Who else?"

however.

Lao Guo did not answer, but pointed to the corridor not far ahead.

Miss Jiang looked in the direction he was looking, not understanding what was going on.

As a result, I saw a person wearing a black coat and carrying a black handbag.

A middle-aged woman with a graceful demeanor and a kind face.

Standing at the corner of the corridor, looking at her with a smile on his face.

……

Miss Jiang knew this woman.

The boss of Hong Kong TEDA.

Investor in the school’s new dormitory.

A junior high school classmate of Principal Ma Jian.

of course.

Miss Jiang and others once suspected that this woman was also Lao Ma’s sweetheart when he was young.

After all, the temperament and appearance are here.

When she was young, she was definitely a famous beauty.

but.

Miss Jiang has never had any contact with this woman.

I don't quite understand why she is targeting me.

result.

You'll find out only if you ask.

This woman has several partners who will come to Linjiang next month to discuss business.

I brought her to Jiangzhou to visit her.

So this old moonlight wanted to go on stage and shine a little.

The truth is this.

but…

"Are you looking for some benefit?"

"Cough cough cough..."

I do not have.

Don't talk nonsense.

Miss Jiang smiled a little shyly, even a little coyly.

This made the young men passing by along the way couldn't help but cast their eyes over.

Seeing this.

Ji Ruting smiled.

The smile was gentle, but there was still a hint of nostalgia in her eyes.

"Jiang Ning."

"Ok?"

"Do you want to study at HKU?"

"what?"

Miss Jiang was stunned, not quite understanding what this woman was trying to do.

"What do you mean?"

...

"Gangcheng University, my words still have an effect there."

"If you want, I can give you a special recruitment spot."

“There are scholarships, and you can bring your family over.”

Good guy.

These conditions are quite good.

Food and accommodation are provided and you also get paid.

The most important thing is that even family members can accompany you.

And in accordance with the policy of Hong Kong City.

I’m afraid I’ll be able to get a Hong Kong hukou after graduation.

It can be said.

90 percent of high school students couldn't refuse this offer.

If Miss Jiang hadn't been reborn.

I guess...

pity.

She is a reborn person.

I know that Hong Kong City is not a good place.

Don't be fooled by the great economic development.

Asian Tigers.

But in terms of humanistic construction.

The problem is very big.

Very hostile to mainlanders.

So she would never consider studying at HKU.

No matter how good the conditions are, it’s useless.

Fortunately, Ms. Ji was not unhappy because of her refusal.

He just nodded with some regret.

At this time.

The two of them had already arrived at the black car parked downstairs.

A middle-aged man in a black suit suddenly got out of the driver's seat.

Quickly walked to the back door of the car.

turn on.

But at this moment, Ji Ruting did not choose to sit in.

Instead, he turned around and looked at the pretty girl standing beside him.

"Jiang Ning, be my goddaughter."

"what???"

Miss Jiang was confused when she heard this.

But then she thought.

In Hong Kong, there seems to be a trend of goddaughters and godsons.

It's not that kind of verb either.

It's really the kind that is raised as a daughter or son.

to be frank.

Miss Jiang is not very interested in this kind of thing.

And let her call a stranger who has no relatives or friends her godmother.

I always have the illusion that I am awesome.

Ok.

not too good.

but.

She is not a fool either.

It's obvious that these are the resources of a big businessman in Hong Kong. It's fine not to make friends with him, but there's no reason to push him away, right?

So he coughed twice.

Facing the beautiful middle-aged woman with an expectant look on her face.

He gave a shy smile.

"that…"

"Aunt Ji..."

"Excuse me…"

"I may not be used to calling someone godmother..."

talking.

Seeing that the other person's eyes were a little dim.

Miss Jiang immediately followed up with another sentence.

"but…"

"You look so young."

"I'll just call you sister..."

.........

The boss of Hong Kong City TEDA left Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School with a hearty smile.

Maybe she never expected that Jiang Ning would call her "sister".

In fact, Miss Jiang could feel this woman's appreciation for her.

Whether it was inviting her to go to college in Hong Kong or proposing to become her godparents.

These are all her ways of appreciating herself.

But unfortunately, they were all rejected by Miss Jiang.

According to common sense.

The fate between the boss and Miss Jiang ended here.

But what is Miss Jiang?

A word of 'sister'.

Not only does it maintain the relationship between the two, it may even bring them closer.

As to which step it has reached.

This is not something Miss Jiang can decide.

------

night.

In the girls' dormitory.

After finishing everything, Miss Jiang was sitting on a chair, soaking her feet leisurely.

While chatting, I also listened to Yuan Lu talking about various rumors in the school.

"Do you know Tong Xinyue from Class 7?"

"The study committee member with waist-length hair?"

"Yes, yes, it's her."

Hearing Qi Wen's response, Yuan Lu immediately clapped her hands and said:
"Guess what rumors I heard about her today?"

Listening to this kind of talk that is obviously intended to whet your appetite.

Miss Jiang responded with disdain while wiping her feet with a foot cloth.

"Say something quickly."

"Otherwise, you'll get a taste of my foot washing water."

...

"what."

"Take it away, it's disgusting."

Yuan Lu waved her hand with disgust, then turned around and looked at Yang Ke.

"Ke Ke."

"You know Han Hao from Class 8, right?"

...

"We know each other."

"We are in the same class in the first grade of high school."

As he spoke, Yang Ke seemed to realize something and put down the comb in his hand.

He turned around with a look of surprise.

"No way."

"them?"

……

Hearing this kind of chat content that is obviously full of gossip.

Miss Jiang suddenly lost interest.

Holding the foot basin, he poured out the water.

But when I came back and passed by Mai Wanting's bed.

I looked at this girl, turning on a small light and curled up on the bed, not knowing what she was doing.

So I went over curiously.

He poked his head out and took a look.

It turned out to be accounting.

Lunch: 2.5 yuan.

A ballpoint pen: 0.5 yuan.

Dinner: 2 yuan.

...

Looking at it again, I found that I had written down a lot of things sporadically.

But it's messy.

It's a bit like writing down whatever you use.

At this time.

Wheat noticed the big head approaching.

He put away the account book immediately.

Somewhat nervously asked:

"Jiang, Jiang Ning, what are you looking at..."

"Look at your account."

Miss Jiang put the foot basin back to its original place.

Then he said in a casual tone:

“I keep accounts, too.”

"It's just that every time the budget goes over, I start to cook the books..."

"Hey hey hey..."

.........

into the night.

Miss Jiang climbed onto the bed.

After turning off the lights, I took out my cell phone and started dealing with today's affairs.

[Ningning, when I was working in the archives room today, I heard my colleagues in the department say that a few foreigners came to discuss something with the top and second-in-command.]

I think you need to ask what's going on.

Yo.

My cousin actually has this function.

What a surprise.

Miss Jiang smacked her lips and laughed in silence.

As for what the information said.

In fact, in the afternoon, the second-in-command had already passed the news to himself through his daughter.

It is said that this group of foreigners want to set up a corporate fund in Jiangzhou.

It aims to help all companies with financial difficulties to overcome difficulties.

At the same time, they also promised that as long as the new city in the western area was opened for investment, they could provide Jiangzhou with tens or even hundreds of billions of GDP in the first year.

And it increases as a percentage afterwards.

To know.

The entire Jiangzhou's annual GDP in 2001 was less than billion.

If it's really as they say.

Then the GDP growth rate of Jiangzhou as a whole will be extremely impressive throughout the year.

By then, it would not be impossible for those people in the compound to move up.

In this regard.

My father-in-law said he couldn't refuse.

But considering Miss Jiang's reminder, he used the tactic of procrastination.

Well.

enough.

At least I didn't agree on the spot, which is much better than my previous life.
