Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 38 038【Slap Yourself in the Face】

Wan Chai Pier.

The gang of dock workers who were helping Shi Zhijian move the machines all stopped, and stood there bored with bare arms, smoking or talking, waiting patiently for new orders.

Inside the steward's office.

Solid wood tables and chairs, huge file racks.

A large Western self-portrait hangs on the wall behind the desk.

On the portrait, Zeng Wenju has a mustache and is full of energy. Below is a line of small words: "In 1965, he was promoted to the director of Xu's shipping affairs as a commemoration!"

At this moment, Zeng Wenju sat triumphantly on his boss chair, and in front of him, Shi Zhijian sat on the sofa.

Zeng Wenju asked the female secretary to make him a cup of coffee. Although he was dressed traditionally in a Tang suit and pocket watch, he was keen on drinking coffee, smoking cigars, and playing with foreign things like crosses.

Zeng Wenju has always believed that he is very capable, combining Chinese and Western cultures, and can perfectly accommodate the ghost culture on the basis of maintaining his personal style.

Until he met Shi Zhijian.

Shi Zhijian's speech and behavior made Zeng Wenju feel like an idiot.

Shi Zhijian never took the initiative to compare with Zeng Wenju.

But Zeng Wenju always likes to compare Shi Zhijian, to put it bluntly, he is looking for abuse.

At this moment, Zeng Wenju was drinking coffee, biting a cigar, leaning on the boss's chair, squinting at Shi Zhijian, looking superior.

"Mr. Shi, I have inquired about it. The total value of your machines is 400,000 yuan. According to our shipping company's consignment rate, you will be charged 10% of the fee. The total is 40,000 yuan!"

Zeng Wenju took a puff of his cigar, thinking that after hearing the price, Shi Zhijian would definitely move out Xu Sanshao as his backer, but he was wrong.

Shi Zhijian remained calm, took out a box of Marlboro from his pocket, bit one in his mouth, put his hands together and lit it: "Forty thousand yuan, not much."

Zeng Wenju was taken aback, biting his big cigar in a daze, "Not much? Then please pay!"

Shi Zhijian shook his head, and blew a smoke ring at Zeng Wenju: "I'll give you money, do you dare to take it?"

Zeng Wenju was amused, "What do you mean by that? Why can't I accept it?"

"How much to charge me, you decide?" Shi Zhijian raised his legs and scratched the bridge of his nose with his hand holding a cigarette.

"Of course I can make the decision!" Zeng Wenju said forcefully, "I am the biggest here, and I can take as much as I say!"

"Really?" Shi Zhijian pointed to the phone on Zeng Wenju's desk and said, "Why don't you make a call first?!"

Sure enough, the third young master is going to suppress me!

Zeng Wenju laughed secretly, "Mr. Shi, don't use the third young master to pressure me! So what if I make a phone call? The manager of this shipping company is the eldest young master of the Xu family, not the third young master!"

"Also, do you know who I am? I am the brother-in-law of the young master of the Xu family! So, I have the final say here!" Zeng Wenjun tapped his fingers on the table, making a sound like a rainbow!

Shi Zhijian smiled, and tapped his finger on the coffee table like Zeng Wenju, "When will I tell you to call Third Young Master?"

"If you don't call him, who will you call?"

"Of course it's the young master!"

Zeng Wenju was taken aback immediately, "Calling the young master?"

Before Zeng Wenju figured out why Shi Zhijian asked him to call Xu Shijian, Young Master Xu, the phone on his desk suddenly rang.

Zeng Wenju was taken aback.

Shi Zhijian seemed to have expected it, pointing to the phone: "Answer the phone first!"

Zeng Wenju picked up the phone in a daze, and Xu Shijian's voice came from the phone: "Shi Zhijian's shipping fee is free!"

"Eh?" Zeng Wenju was taken aback, and asked into the microphone, "Why?"

"Pa-ta!" There was no answer, and they hung up directly.

Zeng Wenju blushed.

The young master hung up the phone, but it was still in front of Shi Zhijian.

"What did Young Master Xu say?" Shi Zhijian looked at him with a smile.

Zeng Wenju rubbed his chin fiercely, not knowing how to answer.

...

After Shi Zhijian left, Zeng Wenju couldn't sit still any longer, and immediately called a car to rush to the office of the youngest Xu Shijian.

Central, Tsui Shipping Building.

When Zeng Wenju rushed to the building, he first went to see Charlie Wei, Xu Shijian's personal secretary.

The staff told him that Secretary Wei caught a cold in the rain last night and is now resting at home.

Zeng Wenju had a headache.

Wei Charlie and him have always had a good relationship, and they also like to communicate with each other. Today, Zeng Wenju wanted to inquire about the news through him first, but he didn't expect this guy to be sick.

No matter that much!

Come hard!

I am the eldest and youngest wife-in-law, afraid of birds!

In the office, Xu Shijian was sitting behind a huge desk correcting documents.

Zeng Wenju refused to let the girl at the reception notify, so he pushed open the door and rushed in angrily.

"Shijian, what are you doing? Do you know that I won't get off the stage just now when Shi Zhijian was on the street?" Zeng Wenju was very angry.

"As you know, Shi Zhijian is the third young master's friend, and if I make things difficult for him, I'm helping you!"

"Help me? How can you help me?" Xu Shijian put down the pen in his hand, looked up coldly at his wife and uncle Zeng Wenju.

Zeng Wenju was still angry, "Everyone knows that the third young master is ambitious. On the surface, he is devoted to romance, but in fact he wants to get involved in Xu Shipping. This time he said he would help Shi Zhijian, but he was actually testing your attitude towards him! If you are too weak, He'll stick his hand in and meddle in the company's shipping affairs!"

"Also, that Shi Zhijian is obviously Third Young Master's man. He kissed me and me with Gui Lao Qi and his gang on the boat. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that he is buying people's hearts for Third Young Master!"

Xu Shijian slowly got up from the boss chair, walked up to Zeng Wenju, who was blushing and thick-necked, with his hands behind his back, and looked at him coldly.

Zeng Wenju: "What are you looking at me for?"

Xu Shijian's tone was calm: "First of all, I want you to understand that this is my office, and no one can come in without my permission!"

Only then did Zeng Wenju feel Xu Shijian's invisible oppression, and realized that he was impulsive just now.

"Ahem, this, I..."

"Secondly, I really don't like you calling me 'Shijian'! This is a company, not a home! Not in front of your niece!"

Zeng Wenju's eyelids twitched, feeling Xu Shijian's invisible anger bursting out.

"Finally, do you want to know why I helped Shi Zhijian?" Xu Shijian turned around and took a stack of photos from his desk, and threw them at Zeng Wenju's face, "It's because of this!"

A stack of photos was thrown on Zeng Wenju's face. Because it was too sharp, it cut Zeng Wenju's left cheek, and a bloodstain appeared.

Zeng Wenju was thrown for no reason, facing the imposing Xu Shijian, regardless of the pain in his cheek, he hurriedly pouted his buttocks and bent over to pick up the scattered photos on the ground, then he was stunned, only to see that all the photos were secretly smuggled screen.

"You steal, I can turn a blind eye or close one eye, but you should at least wipe your mouth clean!" Xu Shijian said slowly, "You let people catch you and take so many photos, but what is the meaning? ?”

Xu Shijian's tone suddenly became sharp.

"Do you think I'm sitting too securely and cause trouble for me? Or do you think I'm too boring and find something for me to do?"

Under Xu Shijian's persecution, Zeng Wenju was so frightened that he was sweating profusely and could not speak.

Xu Shijian looked at his frightened brother-in-law, stretched out his right hand and patted Zeng Wenju's shoulder fiercely, leaned his face and whispered into his ear: "I don't care what you do! But if you want to offend me, don't say you are my brother-in-law." , even if it is the Heavenly King, I have nothing to talk about!"

Thanks for the reward of 1500 starting coins in the dead of night when no one is around!
