Chapter 475 Three Days of Farewell(1/2)

Within two weeks, Ning Weimin came to the cultural relics store almost every day.

Not only did I become more familiar with the heads of the two cabinet stores.

With this ability to make friends, I bought most of the good stuff in the two stores.

At least the three main colors of porcelain, namely bright yellow glaze, peacock blue, and malachite green, all of which were from official kilns of about the same age and were of good quality, were all sold out by him.

In addition, he also collected a lot of blue and white flowers from the Ming Dynasty, enamel colors from the Ming Dynasty, pastels from the Kangxi, Yong and Qian dynasties, and kiln glazes.

All in all, he spent less than 200,000 yuan on thousands of kinds of fine porcelain.

If he hadn't been worried about continuing the smooth flow in the future, and had other things to do urgently, this guy wouldn't be willing to stop here.

But even so, his greed made the managers of the two stores turn green and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

They all said they really didn't expect Ning Weimin to be so good at buying things, and he took away half of the things they had packed in the store.

He also said that this was just this one time and would not happen again.

If Ning Weimin were to come again in the future, it would be impossible to give him such a big discount.

Otherwise, all the items collected with great difficulty will be sold so cheaply, and there will be no way to pay bonuses to employees.

After all, Ning Weimin is a knowledgeable person.

While thanking the two managers profusely, he explained again and again that it was just a contingency plan for the opening of the restaurant.

At the same time, he expressed his personal generosity by using practical actions in private to express his "thank you" very well.

Only in this way did the resentment between the two big managers disappear in time, and the newly established friendship was not ruined.

Of course, not only the cultural relics store complained that he bought too much, but also the deputy director of the Temple of Heaven Park.

The deputy director introduced Ning Weimin to the person who connected him with the cultural relics store. He also didn't expect him to be so generous and spend 200,000 yuan on porcelain.

You know, how much money does a joint venture restaurant have in total?

After excluding the 50,000 yuan compensation for moving the hardware store, and the money for digging the basement and decorating it.

The remaining half a million may not even reach 300,000.

So when I saw the porcelain that Ning Weimin bought, the deputy director's eyes almost dropped to the ground and he couldn't close his mouth.

I thought about it, if all the funds in this account were to buy porcelain, what else could I do with it?

Fortunately, Ning Weimin had already thought of his words.

After some explanations, in the end, not only did the deputy director not get angry, but he also smiled happily.

Ning Weimin said this. First of all, among the 200,000 worth of porcelain, only less than half of it was of a color and style suitable for the restaurant. He chose it for the restaurant.

And he knew very well that the restaurant had limited funds and could only spend 50,000 yuan at most.

Therefore, the money to buy the porcelain was raised and advanced from elsewhere, and it would not occupy the restaurant's scarce funds.

As for which porcelain should be left in the restaurant, you can wait until the restaurant is renovated and then decide based on the specific situation.

Anyway, the cultural relics store issued an invoice for everything.

At that time, whichever item you feel is suitable will be displayed.

Whichever item is displayed will be considered as purchased by the restaurant.

If there is no need for others, he will take them away and use them for other purposes. Is this a good thing for the restaurant?

Well, just like that, the deputy director was successfully deceived by Ning Weimin again.

It is obvious that Ning Weimin took advantage of this matter and used the relationship with the Temple of Heaven Park for personal gain.

But after hearing what he said, the deputy director felt that he was changing his plans for the restaurant again.

I completely regard him as a great good person.

Look, what is confusing right and wrong?

This is. And it can also make people feel grateful.

When you are a bad guy, you have to live up to it. Only then can you be regarded as having some moral integrity and reaching a higher level.

Those who are evil on the surface and can be seen through at a glance cannot do it!

But then again, since Ning Weimin is such a person, he must have such friends around him.

Birds of a feather flock together, and people flock together.

Therefore, if this kid is not careful, he will inevitably be tricked by others.

No, Qiao Wanlin quietly let him take the blame.

And it made him feel so wronged that he couldn't express it.

What's going on?

Two weeks ago, just after the decoration plan was finalized.

Ning Weimin pushed open the door to find the deputy director and wanted him to contact the cultural relics store.

I happened to catch up with the deputy director of the Temple of Heaven entertaining several people from the ancient construction team in his office.

At that time, the deputy director was also trying to find Ning Weimin to sign and formalize the contract for the construction of the ancient building.

At the same time, Ning Weimin also needs to come forward at noon to accompany the people of the ancient construction team to have a meal.

Needless to say, this is what Ning Weimin should do.

Not only should he accompany him at noon, he should also go next door to inform Qiao Wanlin.

There are only three leaders in the operation team. It would be outrageous to have two leaders and leave one behind.

However, what happened next was very unexpected.

Because that day, everyone sat at the banquet and toasted in order.

Only then did Ning Weimin discover that among the people in these ancient construction teams, there was actually someone he had seen before.

Moreover, they were people whom we met under special circumstances for special reasons.

That is Lan Lan's father.

Why haven't you recognized it yet?

For no other reason than because Ning Weimin suddenly opened the door of the deputy principal.

I met the people from the ancient construction team in a very hasty and unexpected situation.

There was no time for formal introductions and greetings.

His only polite nod was to the eloquent business director of the ancient construction team.

Then I heard that he was asked to sign, so he readily agreed and immediately took the deputy director and director of the ancient construction team to his office.

Think about it, if you think about it, he can only stay in the deputy director's office for a minute or two at most. How can he possibly see everyone's faces clearly?

Professor Lan, on the other hand, is a professional technical expert and has the noble spirit of a scholar.

In social situations, he usually does not participate in unnecessary topics that have nothing to do with technology.

Most of the time, I just sit quietly and drink tea.

And because I had only seen Ning Weimin once on the Great Wall, I didn't leave a deep impression on him.

In Professor Lan's memory, Ning Weimin was just a hutong guy wearing cloth clothes and shoes, a jobless vagrant who made money by selling scrap copper.

Who would have thought that in just two years, this kid would turn into a business manager of Pierre Carton Company in suits and leather shoes, chatting and laughing.

He even became a big boss behind the scenes who could spend money for the Temple of Heaven Garden and hire their ancient construction team to provide services.

So even though Ning Weimin looked familiar after meeting him face to face, Professor Lan didn't dare to think about it that way.

But the problem is, according to the etiquette and procedures of the banquet, everyone sits together, and eventually they have to be introduced face-to-face in a more formal way.

In this way, when Ning Weimin and Professor Lan recognized each other's identities, they felt very embarrassed at the same time.

Don't forget, there are rules in both officialdom and shopping malls, and banquets and banquets are based on dignity.

First of all, the business director of the ancient construction team is very clear on the issue of who invites whom. It is impossible for the operation team to pay for them.

Although Ning Weimin is young, he is the most powerful person. He is the most distinguished guest at today's banquet.

Even though he gave in politely, the deputy director did not dare to overstep his bounds and sit down on the chairman's chair.

What's more, today Ning Weimin just signed the contract for the ancient construction team and approved the first payment for the project.

Isn't he the person the business director of the ancient construction team is looking for, and should be complimented to the best of his ability?

Therefore, even if everyone here is older than Ning Weimin, age must be ignored at this banquet, and Ning Weimin must sit in the chair.

Secondly, the business director, as the leader of the party hosting the guests, must also serve as the introducer after the toast.

According to the order of seats, take the initiative to introduce the people of the ancient construction team to Ning Weimin and Qiao Wanlin one by one.

When making a toast, the people from the ancient construction team also had to pay respect to Ning Weimin first, then to the deputy director, and then to Qiao Wanlin.

To put it bluntly, if Ning Weimin doesn't move his chopsticks, no one can do it first.
To be continued...
