Chapter 385

If strolling through the textile factory was an introduction session unique to Xu Nuo, then strolling through the department store was chat time.

Because the two of them couldn't afford a single thing in the department store at all.

Wang Gensheng was purely poor, while Xu Nuo was because the timeline had already reached the point where he bought the recipe for the double crab bun, Factory Director Xu was furious and cut off his living expenses, and estimating his pockets, he was probably not as rich as Wang Gensheng was now (Wang Gensheng had just advanced his salary).

Two poor ghosts strolling through the department store, of course, could only look, and had to look from the corners, so as not to block the view of people who wanted to buy things.

During the time strolling through the department store, Xu Nuo basically stripped Wang Gensheng down to the bone.

Family background, interpersonal relationships, educational experience, hobbies... Qin Huai could see that Wang Gensheng was quite yearning for blind dates and marriage, because whenever Xu Nuo asked a question that was a bit deeper that Wang Gensheng didn't really want to answer, Xu Nuo would say he was asking on behalf of a matchmaker, and Wang Gensheng would tell the truth.

The Xie Zhi basically had no secrets before Xu Nuo. Qin Huai could see it; Xu Nuo might not have mind-reading powers, but he was definitely very good at interpersonal communication and interaction, and could see the true inner thoughts of people like Wang Gensheng who weren't very good at hiding their own minds at a glance.

It was just that Xu Nuo had no interest in sales; otherwise, it was hard to say whether the gold-medal salesperson would be Xu Nuo or Gong Liang.

And Xu Nuo, in all likelihood, had already guessed Wang Gensheng's species. In Luo Jun's words, the characteristics of the Xie Zhi on Wang Gensheng were almost overflowing.

Luo Jun, having basically never seen Wang Gensheng and only hearing others describe the situation, could guess that Wang Gensheng was a Xie Zhi. For Xu Nuo, who was so good at observing people and fishing for information, it wouldn't be difficult to determine it in half a day.

"So Xu Nuo, is it because you don't know what you want to do that you don't work or take the college entrance exam?" After Wang Gensheng's situation was asked clearly by Xu Nuo, Wang Gensheng reacted a bit belatedly; he actually should also understand the situation of his new friend.

"Not entirely; it's mainly because I don't want to work, and I don't want to take the college entrance exam; it's too tiring."

Wang Gensheng:?

Xu Nuo gave a hehe smile: "My dad's salary is so high, my mom's salary isn't low either, and my brother is even working as a technician over in Jin Ling, still sending some money back every month."

"My family isn't short of money. Although I spend a bit too much, it's actually within the acceptable range of my parents. I haven't stolen, I haven't robbed, and I haven't swindled... although in my dad's eyes I might be a little bit of a swindler, I absolutely won't touch anything that violates laws and discipline. Going to the state-run restaurant is also to help out, and by the way, learn some skills and make some snacks."

"Even if I'm not doing my proper job, I'm not too much of a slacker. Let me tell you, my dad is just that kind of person; on the surface, he looks serious, upright, and rigid, unable to tolerate sand in his eyes, but in reality, his tolerance in his heart is quite high; he just likes to say it that way with his mouth."

"Don't listen to what he says; you have to look at what he does. For example, the current situation in your Finance department, not one person can shoulder the responsibility, and there aren't many who can work. My dad doesn't say anything on the surface, and he doesn't have any opinions on Section Chief Li and the others, but in his heart, he has long made up his mind to properly rectify your Finance department."

"Specially poaching you from Jin Ling is a signal. How did the Finance department become what it is now? It's because Deputy Factory Director Chen is from a finance background, and at least 1/3 of your Finance department are connections of Deputy Factory Director Chen, and Section Chief Li is Deputy Factory Director Chen's lackey. My dad wants to rectify the Finance department; first, he has to transfer a technical backbone from the outside to cultivate properly. Otherwise, he doesn't have a single soldier under his command; just a lone commander issuing orders, who would listen?"

Wang Gensheng didn't expect that he just wanted to care about his friend's situation and could hear such earth-shattering gossip, internal factory struggles, so shocked that his mouth opened wide.

Reason told Wang Gensheng that at this time he should not say a word, but emotion told him that Xu Nuo had been so open and honest with him that he had even said such things; if he didn't have any reaction, it would seem too cold.

"This... is this something I can listen to?" Wang Gensheng held it in for a long time before squeezing out this sentence.

"Of course, after you've worked for a period of time and have some insights, I'll have to break it down and tell you properly."

"Let me tell you, according to my analysis. After you enter Finance, Section Chief Li will definitely try to win you over. He must value you very much because you are a university student; you can definitely do things. Section Chief Li is actually also very troubled by the current situation in Finance."

"Although Section Chief Li is very stingy, his stinginess is all acted out. The stinginess on the surface is the image he wants to show in front of outsiders."

"He wants to win you over; he will definitely encourage you in words and satisfy you in material terms. Simply put, it's sugar-coated bullets, making you loyal to him and becoming the most useful brick in Finance."

"And my dad? He should first examine your ability and character. If he feels there is no problem, he will quietly take a fancy to you and promote you."

"Why do you think we met at the door today? Section Chief Li kept talking to you at the door and wouldn't let you leave. One is to show other leaders how much he values you, showing that you are his person, and that Finance will definitely value you in the future." "Another is to show his stance to my dad. My dad specially poached someone from Jin Ling, and their Finance side will also value it. From now on, Finance will not be the original Finance. Now that Finance has talented people who can work, it will definitely take on a new look, and it won't be like before, where even dogs dislike it."

"Then why did my dad specially grab me over? It's because my dad wants me to lead you around the factory, under the guise of letting me have more contact with university students. In reality, my dad wants me to probe your bottom line, win you over, and examine your character and ability to see if you are worth promoting."

Wang Gensheng was already completely stunned.

He was truly speechless this time.

"But Old Wang, don't have any psychological pressure. You are a hot commodity now; whether it's Section Chief Li or my dad, they both value you very much. No matter how you choose, I believe you can successfully pass your probation, and you will soon be promoted and get a raise."

Wang Gensheng could only say: "This... is this something that can be said?"

Xu Nuo smiled as he looked at him: "Of course it can be said. My dad told me to come and fish for your words and probe your bottom line, and I've already probed it clearly. He told me to win you over, and I've also won you over. My mission is successfully completed; what is there that cannot be said?"

Wang Gensheng:???

Wang Gensheng was already foolish. For the first time, he felt that even if he had passed the college entrance exam and become a precious university graduate of this era, he might not be very smart. Society was indeed very complicated; just entering the workplace had given him a big one.

"Is... is this how you win people over?"

"Just say whether it's useful or not," Xu Nuo said.

Wang Gensheng found it hard to give an answer.

He really wanted to say how could this be useful, but he had to admit that he now believed Xu Nuo very much, even to the point of completely believing him.

As long as a person is sincere enough, you will believe whatever they say. No matter what words come out of his mouth, you will simply feel that he might just have a problem with his brain.

Seeing Wang Gensheng blankly unable to say a word, Xu Nuo raised his hand to look at his watch and exclaimed: "Ah, it's almost time; the fermented rice steamed buns are about to come out of the pot!"

"Let's go, I'll take you to the state-run restaurant first. Oh my, I originally wanted to take you back to the factory first and then take a shortcut from the factory gate, but now there's no time; I can only go over first and I'll take you to recognize the road tomorrow."

"Ah, what fermented rice steamed buns?"

"Very delicious snacks that you have to fight for. When the time comes, you queue up first, and I'll go in directly to take the back door to order food for you."

"Ah?"

"Ah what? Didn't I say I was sent by my dad to win you over? Now the valuing on the visual side has been expressed, and all that's left is the sugar-coated bullet on the material side."

"I'll order two good dishes for you, letting you properly feel the sugar-coated bullet from my dad. My lunch box happens to be at the state-run restaurant. When the braised pork comes out of the pot, I'll secretly divide a little bit for you; don't make a scene. I haven't had much money lately and haven't eaten braised pork for a long time."

"Oh." Wang Gensheng nodded blankly, clearly not understanding Xu Nuo's routine, but his body was very honest as he ran along with Xu Nuo.

Qin Huai followed behind, sighing in his heart: It really is you, Xu Nuo.

A few words turned the Xie Zhi into a Dang Kang. The last one who was talked to by Xu Nuo and didn't know how to reply, only able to reply "oh," was also a Dang Kang.
