Chapter 130 You made me lose miserably (6k subscription required)

Escorted by an Audi convoy, Lu Yao started from the outskirts of Xicheng and headed southward.

It was not until this moment that Lu Yao understood what it meant to "when the time comes, heaven and earth will work together". Their Audi convoy had not encountered any red lights along the way, as if all the green lights were waiting for their convoy to pass at the right time.

So much so that the slowest and most tedious urban driving becomes incredibly smooth.

It was not until this moment that Lu Yao deeply realized what it meant to "hold great power" and "the whole world revolves around oneself."

No wonder leaders like to visit the unit so much and even want to treat the unit as their own home.

The yellow-haired people outside the unit don’t care who you are, but in the unit under your jurisdiction, you can be the earth or the sky.

Because the journey was too smooth, Lu Yao's "special luck experience time" soon expired, and their convoy stopped in front of the "Shanhu Hotel" in Shangnan.

Lu Yao knew this hotel.

This is the Shangnan business community, where Shangnan officials receive important guests, and the hotel is often used for Shangnan meetings. The hospitality in this regard is of very high standards. Lu Yao had been here once in his previous life. That time he sat near the door and listened, and did not even reach the table.

But this time, he came here almost as the "protagonist".

When a number of shiny Audi cars stopped in front of Shanhu Hotel, the attendant on the front passenger seat got out first, then turned around to help Lu Yao open the door.

These passenger seat attendants are all professionally trained. The cars stop almost at the same time, and then the doors are opened one by one according to the order of the cars.

Lu Yao felt that the neat and efficient scene was a bit exaggerated, but he had to admit that it was indeed very stylish.

In front of the stairs in the lobby of Shanhu Hotel, Zhu Junyan, Zhou Bella, Cheng Xinyu and others were already standing there waiting.

When Zhu Junyan saw his "cheap master" coming back in such a state, he felt an inexplicable sense of relief in his heart.

At first, he recognized Lu Yao as his master purely for the purpose of getting close to him and making things easier for him to talk to. Later, after a series of events, he looked back and realized that he had inexplicably broadened his path.

Now every time he called Lu Yao "Master", he meant it sincerely.

Zhou Bella looked at Lu Yao getting out of the car, and she felt a complicated feeling in her heart. The time when they trained together in Yiheng seemed like a long time ago.

Looking back now, I even feel like my memories are starting to fade.

Zhou Bella pursed her lips and said, "Brother Xiao Lu is really amazing."

In addition to Lu Yao and his group, Tao Siyu, Wang Mingzhao and the elders from their families also appeared here.

Tao Siyu's father was so old, but he fell into trouble in this matter and had to come out to greet Lu Yao, a little-known character who was still unknown half a year ago. The unpredictable circumstances of life made Tao Siyu's father look complicated.

Tao Siyu's father looked at Lu Yao, who was dressed in fancy clothes and surrounded by people, coming from the motorcade, and it seemed as if he saw himself when he was young.

After experiencing this misfortune in his old age and seeing this scene, Tao Siyu's father soon began to have an irregular heartbeat.

Wang Mingzhao's eyes were filled with deep hostility, but this was actually the thing that he didn't need to worry about the least.

Only Tao Siyu had an ambiguous smile on her round face.

After Lu Yao, Tao Siyu and others got off the car, Tao Siyu followed Zhu Junyan and others to greet them, but Tao Siyu and others were squeezed outside the circle of Zhu Junyan and others.

They can only get their turn after Lu Yao has greeted Zhu Junyan and the others.

This kind of cold treatment would never have happened to them in the past, but now they can only swallow it.

Zhu Junyan came over and said happily, "I knew you were capable, Master! After our company was unblocked, the government even gave us special support. We will definitely have strong momentum for development in the future."

Lu Yao smiled and said, "It can be considered a blessing in disguise."

Gao Chuning, the prick, put his hands on his hips and said strangely: "Thanks to the boss, I, Xiao Gao, can be considered to have eaten the public food."

Lu Yao laughed and said, "Everyone is frightened and tired. Don't worry, I will definitely give you bonuses as a consolation."

Cheng Xinyu's eyes swept over Lu Yao like a hot spring, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and everything she wanted to say was contained in that arc.

Lu Yao glanced at Cheng Xinyu's charming face without stopping, but Cheng Xinyu knew that her boss must have received the "heartfelt words" she wanted to convey.

After greeting everyone, Lu Yao looked at Zhou Bella and said, "Why are you so quiet?"

Zhou Bella wrinkled her tall little nose: "No, I'm just very happy to see Brother Lu come back."

Zhou Bella unzipped her coat and took out a braided bracelet with body temperature from the pocket inside her coat. A prayer talisman folded into a triangle was hung on the bracelet. "I prayed for you."

"I specifically asked for this from the high priest of Yunyin Temple. I hope everything goes smoothly for Brother Lu in the future~"

Lu Yao took the bracelet and took a look at it. He found that there were actually strands of black and shiny hair mixed in the red braided rope.

That should be Bella Zhou's hair.

At this point in 2013, there are indeed many girls who would express their feelings in this way.

Similar practices include hiding confessions of love inside paper cranes and writing affectionate words on the back of picture frames. Ten years later, there was a follow-up trend on the Internet. Many middle-aged people born in the 90s went back to look through the photo frames and origami stars given by their classmates, and indeed, they saw the messages from ten years ago.

How would it feel when the feelings written ten years ago break through the dust of ten long years and appear before your eyes?

Lu Yao put the bracelet talisman close to his body and said with a smile: "Is there something hidden on it?"

There was a flash of chaos in Zhou Bella's eyes.

She suppressed her panic and said, "What? That was prepared for me by the Taoist priest."

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Thank you."

Our Bella is as sensible and virtuous as ever.

After greeting his close relatives, Lu Yao pushed through the crowd and came to Tao Siyu and the others.

Although they were defeated in this fight, they couldn't leave the other party alone for too long.

Tao Siyu looked at Lu Yao who was pushing his way through the crowd and said in a unique voice full of alcohol and smoke: "Mr. Lu, we meet again."

This time she finally greeted Lu Yao first.

Lu Yao responded: "Ms. Tao looks much better than I thought."

Tao Siyu laughed and said, "It was all fake. I have been hiding under the quilt and crying these past few days."

Although she was the loser, Tao Siyu did not look panic-stricken. Instead, she looked no different from before. If Lu Yao had not studied abroad in the future, he would definitely not be her opponent in this fight.

After exchanging pleasantries with Lu Yao, Tao Siyu looked at Rong Nianqing and said, "Miss Rong, we meet again."

Rong Nianqing nodded as a greeting, she didn't want to talk too much with Tao Siyu.

Tao Siyu also understood, stepped aside to make way and said, "Okay, we have prepared a welcoming banquet for you all, please come in."

At the banquet prepared by Tao Siyu, Lu Yao also met several powerful bosses in the center of Shangnan City. Bosses of this level are a level that many people will never meet in their lifetime.

But today, these people were all smiling and chatting with Lu Yao, toasting each other, as if they were going to become sworn brothers with Lu Yao the next moment.

Lu Yao understood that what they said were just polite words, and he had no intention of getting close to this group of people.

Because he knew that there would be a huge shock in Shangnan in the next few years.

The days of glory for the several powerful men who appeared here today will not last long.

At the banquet, Tao Siyu was the first to stand up and toast Lu Yao and express her apologies. Then even Tao Siyu's father stood up to toast and said a few polite words.

It seems that Tao Siyu's family is apologizing here, which seems very shameful.

But this is precisely the last bit of dignity that the center of Shangnan City gives to Tao Siyu's family.

They have already lost, and the price of losing is to give up all titles and withdraw from Shangnan.

As a family with its base in Shangnan, this branch of Tao Siyu's family can only go to other places or even go abroad in the future.

Many people think that life abroad is great and that they can do whatever they want if they have money, but the reality is not like that. If you want to call the shots abroad, money is just a threshold.

To put it bluntly, people who only go out with money are fat sheep.

Later, many people in the country who had taken the money out were still thinking about living a life of luxury. Some of them were even stupid enough to deposit their own money in a private bank to earn high interest. Then the private bank declared bankruptcy, killing them completely.

When the banquet was almost over, everyone walked out of the venue in a noisy manner, talking nonsense.

When they arrived at the lobby of Shanhu Hotel, most people who were supposed to leave had already left. Tao Siyu, who was supposed to go back home, was still following Lu Yao and the others.

Lu Yao smiled at Rong Nianqing and the others beside him and said, "You go back first. I'll chat with Miss Tao for a few more words."

Rong Nianqing looked back at Tao Siyu, then said to Lu Yao: "Then go back and rest early after your talk."

Sister Wang said, "I'll wait for you outside."

Lu Yao nodded: "Okay."

After sending Rong Nianqing and the others away, Lu Yao turned sideways and looked at Tao Siyu: "Do you have anything to say?"

"Let's talk while we walk."

Tao Siyu took the lead and walked out of the hotel lobby and into the cold and snowy outside.

It started snowing at noon and is still falling now. After such a long time, the sky and the earth are already covered in silver. The footsteps of the two people made a "crunching" sound as they stepped on the snow.

After walking for a while, Tao Siyu said, "You are a very strong opponent, and you are braver than me."

Lu Yao smiled faintly and said, "It's just self-protection."

Tao Siyu sighed: "If we were not on the same side, I would really like to be friends with you."

Lu Yao was happy: "No, people like us can't be friends. It's too tiring."

In comparison, Lu Yao prefers to be friends with relatively simple people like Cheng Xinyu and Zhou Bella, who don't have so many dirty thoughts. The people with dirtier thoughts like simple and innocent people, and even envy them.

Tao Siyu smiled and said, "That's right. You made me lose miserably this time."

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Is it miserable? At least you can get out of this unscathed and become a wealthy man, that's pretty good."

Tao Siyu smiled and said nothing.

Status is a poison. Once you take it, you must take it for the rest of your life. Taking a step back will lead to two completely different worlds.

Tao Siyu said faintly: "You will understand one day sooner or later."

It doesn't matter whether it's sooner or later, Lu Yao understands it now.

Seeing this, Tao Siyu smiled and said, "Don't think you can rest easy just because you won this time, because next you will have to face the entire Tao family and Shangnan." "You can't even imagine what a terrifying opponent you will face."

Lu Yao smiled: "You are kind enough to remind me? People like you want to set a trap for me before leaving."

To put it bluntly, this method is called "seeing a snake in the cup".

If Lu Yao was frightened here, then any decision he made next would be slow because of his concerns, and many irrelevant factors would be taken into consideration, making his response slower.

If you are a little slow in fighting against this group of people, you will lose everything, just like what happened to Tao Siyu this time, so Lu Yao didn't take Tao Siyu's words to heart.

Tao Siyu said calmly: "If you say it is a setup, then it is a setup."

After walking for a while, Tao Siyu asked doubtfully: "Based on what you said, I am actually confused. Why are you so confident? Our family can be cut off and abandoned as a price, why are you so sure that Rong Nianqing's family will not cut you off and throw you out?"

Are you trying to use psychological suggestion again? Or are you planning to do psychological profiling based on my reactions?

Lu Yao smiled and gave the answer: "It's very simple, as long as I keep winning, it will be fine."

Tao Siyu smiled speechlessly.

She finally said, "The opponent you are going to face next is Tao Sixing. Compared to a low-level player like me who likes to play tricks, Tao Sixing is a man of honorable means. I wish you good luck."

After saying this, Tao Siyu quickened her pace and distanced herself from Lu Yao.

"We won't meet again."

Looking at Tao Siyu's quickly receding back, Lu Yao felt a little emotional.

Although Tao Siyu lost in this fight, she is indeed very cool. Even now she is still setting up her own game, trying to put pressure on Lu Yao both in terms of momentum and psychology.

If it weren't for his experience studying abroad, Lu Yao might not have been able to withstand the shock.

After Tao Siyu got into her family's car, she quickly disappeared into the snowy night.

Lu Yao returned to Sister Wang's car, and the Shanhu Hotel's designated driver started the car and took Lu Yao and Sister Wang back to their residence.

Returning to this small apartment, a warm and comfortable feeling immediately hit him. Unconsciously, this place had the feeling of "home". Only when returning here could Lu Yao completely relax.

"call--"

Lu Yao lay down directly on the sofa in the living room. The feeling of complete relaxation of body and mind made Lu Yao relax completely.

This feeling is like the feeling you get when you return home after a week of traveling. The sense of security that comes from knowing that you don’t have to rush around to meet your schedule is incomparable.

Cool! !

Sister Wang is in a very good mood tonight.

Because when she was hesitating whether to get in the car, Lu Yao took the initiative to call her to get in, and because Lu Yao showed relaxation and comfort when he returned home, these details made Sister Wang happy.

So Sister Wang happily walked into the kitchen and started to get busy.

Lu Yao was lying on the sofa and heard the noise and wondered, "Is this a midnight snack?"

Sister Wang smiled and said, "I'll make you some hangover soup."

Lu Yao sat up: "Then I'll go with you."

Sister Wang immediately shouted, "No need! Just lie down."

The small apartment is lit with warm yellow light. The well-insulated house blocks the severe cold and snow outside. Two people live in one room, with three meals a day and four seasons. This kind of life has a tangible sense of security.

On the other side, a private plane at Shangnan Airport tore through the cold wind and snow curtain above Shangnan, roared in with the strange breath of a foreign country, and finally landed steadily at the airport.

As the cabin door opened, a tall man with a face as hard as a chisel walked out of the cabin, stood on the gangway, and looked down at the crowd who came to greet him at the airport.

And this group of people
They were the group that left Lu Yao's banquet.

There were even higher-ranking bosses standing in the crowd.

The young man took a quick glance down and walked briskly down the gangway. He showed a heroic yet friendly smile in front of the crowd and shook hands with the people who greeted him: "Thank you all for coming to pick me up. It's really an honor."

"Where."

The people who came to greet him immediately started to be polite.

After a brief greeting, the people from Shangnan said, "It's cold outside, so get in the car quickly. Mr. Tao is waiting for you."

"it is good!"

When the convoy that came to greet the young man was driving from the airport towards Shangnan city, they happened to meet the convoy that was leaving from Shangnan with Tao Siyu's family.

On the wide road, Tao Siyu saw the convoy in the opposite lane through the car window, and even vaguely saw Tao Sixing sitting in the middle car. She also saw Tao Sixing turn his head to look in their direction, and then silently withdrew his gaze.

Tao Siyu, who had been acting very calm the whole night, finally showed her true emotions for the first time. She wrinkled her nose and sneered: "What a boast!"

She and Tao Sixing have not gotten along since childhood.

Because Tao Sixing always said that he was cunning and used tricks, and was not presentable, Tao Siyu was very disgusted with him.

Part of what she said to Lu Yao tonight was indeed to put pressure on Lu Yao, but she also hoped that Lu Yao could defeat Tao Sixing.

Lu Yao, like her, is a person who likes to plot and play tricks. If Lu Yao can defeat Tao Sixing, Tao Siyu will also be happy.

The pressure on Lu Yao was because her last name was Tao.

I hope Lu Yao wins because I hate Tao Sixing.

Anyway, no matter how you calculate it, she won't lose out.

Thinking of this, Tao Siyu felt a little better.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Lu Yao slept until after ten in the morning before waking up naturally. When he woke up and opened the curtains, he saw that the whole world outside the window was covered with snow. The high-rise buildings clad in silver were lined up one after another, looking magnificent.

The winters in Shangnan are damp and cold, and most of the houses here do not have floor heating, but Sister Wang's apartment is equipped with electric heating.

The electric heater that was turned on all night made the room extra warm. It was a unique experience to wear a short-sleeved T-shirt, drink hot tea and watch the snow scenery in the house.

Soon, Sister Wang also came out in a purple silk nightgown. After a simple wash, she poured herself a cup of hot tea and stood by the window: "So beautiful."

Lu Yao habitually boasted: "Compared to you, it's too plain."

Ok?
Sister Wang leaned against the French window and tilted her head to look at Lu Yao, saying coquettishly, "You're so smooth-talking."

But I have to say this guy is really good at praising women, it seems like he has mastered the art.

Sister Wang admired the snow scene for a while and prepared to make something to eat. Lu Yao received a message from Rong Nianqing: "Take a look at this person."

Then Rong Nianqing sent over a document containing the resume of "Tao Sixing".

Lu Yao couldn't help but think of what Tao Siyu said to him last night. Although Lu Yao acted a little crazy last night, that was just for Tao Siyu to see. Lu Yao would not be careless in a real confrontation.

He knows too well the pain of making one wrong move and causing many mistakes in Big A.

Big A has left too many people without love.

So Lu Yao carefully read the document sent by Rong Nianqing.

Ten minutes later, Lu Yao finished reading Tao Sixing's resume. He sent a message to Rong Nianqing: "Well, this person's resume is so dazzling that it almost blinds my eyes."

"I got the third place in the province in the college entrance examination. I was invited by many famous universities, but I finally chose Jiangcheng University. I was admitted to Tuck School of Business in my junior year. After graduation, I worked at Bain Capital for three years, then left and became a freelance consultant. I am active in the overseas business community and have assisted many Fortune 100 companies."

Lu Yao finally praised: "Amazing."

Rong Nianqing sent a message: "I'm not showing this to you to listen to you praising him."

"In the next year, Huasheng Life will compare its performance with Xinbai Plaza and ultimately decide who will own the land in Xinbai Plaza. We only have one year. What do you think?"

Lu Yao thought for a moment and replied, "Huasheng Life Plaza's current daily turnover is around six million. Only during major holidays can the turnover exceed ten million."

"As long as we manage it well, there is still great potential here."

Ten years later, Pang Donglai has become a widely trusted supermarket thanks to its excellent service and strict product selection standards, and has even turned a supermarket into a tourist attraction.

Many products in Pang Donglai will be sold out once they are put on the shelves, and later purchasing products on behalf of Pang Donglai even became a profession.

Some porters can even earn 160,000 to 170,000 yuan a month by purchasing products from Pang Donglai on behalf of others.

At that time, the combined daily sales of all Pang Donglai stores reached about 50 million, and the annual sales were nearly 20 billion.

Compared with Yuzhou, Shangnan has stronger consumption capacity and greater potential. In Lu Yao's prediction, Huasheng Life Plaza will probably be able to reach an annual turnover of 20 billion in the next three years.

Five years later, relying on the newly opened track and the advantages of the Internet, it is estimated that the scale will reach hundreds of billions.

But one year.
What we can do between 2014 and 2015 is to accumulate strength and pave the way for the future intelligent era.

If they want to compete with Xinjie Road this year and surpass them in turnover, this goal is not easy to achieve.

You should know that Xinjie Road is the C position of Shangnan's commercial map, attracting an average of more than 50 visitors every day. The square that gathers there mainly sells mid-to-high-end products, and the daily turnover can easily exceed million.

The gap between the two sides is extremely large.

After thinking it over, Lu Yao said, "But potential does not equal strength. It will be very difficult to defeat the opponent within a year."

Rong Nianqing only replied with four words: "I believe you."

Lu Yao smiled speechlessly.

Is this a question of whether you trust it or not?
You have to know that of the 500,000 people that visit Xinjie Road every day, only a small portion of them enter Xinbai Plaza. If some means were used to attract a large number of customers to go in and consume, Xinbai Plaza's performance would see an extremely terrifying improvement!

Lu Yao touched his chin and pondered for a while before saying, "Actually, there is a simplest and most effective way."

Rong Nianqing, who was far away in Huasheng Life Plaza, suddenly had a bad feeling, but she still asked, "Tell me about it."

Lu Yao replied in a word: "Turning Xinbai Plaza into a haunted building."

Rong Nianqing: “Ah?”

No, what are you talking about?

Do you think this kind of illusory thing is reliable?
