Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Over the following period, Wang Erhai was busy to the point of having no free time.

He first went to find a rental house, helped Wang Xiaohua move in to live together, then went to find an office; after finding the office location, he still had to renovate, register, recruit people, and so on.

All the work was shouldered by him alone.

After being busy for more than half a month, he finally got the Mountain-Sea Real Estate Fugang County Branch Company up and running.

Right at this time, Niu Chunsheng found him, saying he wanted to give him a person to share his work pressure.

This person was Lin Xiaofang's paternal cousin, Lin Xiaolong.

Wang Erhai knew clearly in his heart that although Niu Chunsheng spoke nicely, he actually still didn't quite trust him, fearing he would mess things up, so he arranged a spy by his side to supervise his work.

Regarding this, although Wang Erhai was somewhat displeased, he didn't show anything, and he readily accepted:

"Uncle Chunsheng, then please hurry and send the person over. You don't know, these past few days I've been so busy my hands and feet are about to tie themselves in knots. You sending a helper over at this time is truly like sending charcoal in the snow!"

Niu Chunsheng said with a smile:

"Alright then, I'll have him come over to your side today!"

Niu Chunsheng had initially been worried that Wang Erhai would have objections; he never expected Wang Erhai to be so straightforward, so the stone in his heart also settled down.

In the afternoon, Lin Xiaolong came to report for duty.

Lin Xiaolong's first impression on Wang Erhai was not very good.

Because Lin Xiaolong had dyed yellow hair, a completely sloppy and careless appearance, giving people the feeling of a non-mainstream social drifter.

And in fact, Lin Xiaolong really was a social drifter.

Previously he worked in a big city, and he constantly hung out with those social drifters outside the factory, picking up many bad habits.

His father Lin Dajun really couldn't bear to watch his good-for-nothing state any longer, so he went to beg Lin Xiaofang to quickly help him find a proper job, to pull him back onto the right track.

Lin Xiaofang felt she also had an obligation to help Lin Xiaolong; after all, no matter how you put it, he was her paternal cousin, so she went to discuss with Niu Chunsheng.

At first Lin Xiaofang wanted Niu Chunsheng to give Lin Xiaolong the sales agency rights for Spring City Real Estate to manage; Niu Chunsheng was very unwilling in his heart, but not wanting to anger his wife, he still agreed on the surface.

Later Xiao Xueqing actively mediated a cooperation between him and Wang Dashan, so he took the opportunity to give the Spring City Real Estate sales agency rights to Mountain-Sea Real Estate, smoothly resolving this problem like a spring breeze and rain; he comforted Lin Xiaofang a few sentences, and considered the matter smoothed over.

And now, Lin Xiaolong had returned from the big city; Niu Chunsheng gave him two choices: first, to stay by his side and learn management techniques, he would teach him business methods hand-in-hand; second, to go to Wang Erhai's newly established Mountain-Sea Real Estate branch company to hold a nominal post as Deputy General Manager — called Deputy General Manager, but actually with little real power; the Mountain-Sea Real Estate branch company would certainly still follow what Wang Erhai said.

Niu Chunsheng thought Lin Xiaolong would choose to stay by his side; after all, staying by his side, he would not only not shortchange Lin Xiaolong, but also pass on all kinds of solid practical knowledge.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaolong was fundamentally unwilling to do that; even knowing clearly that the nominal Deputy General Manager post had no real power whatsoever, he still chose to go hold the nominal Deputy General Manager post.

Lin Xiaolong's thinking was actually very simple: he just felt that having no real power was better; no real power meant not having to work much, while on the salary side, they certainly wouldn't short him a single cent.

This was equivalent to a sinecure; he could have plenty of time to go out and play, for example go to an internet cafe, go sing karaoke, go play pool.

Niu Chunsheng saw through his little scheme, so he gave him a task:

"Xiaolong, although you're going to the Mountain-Sea Real Estate branch company to hold a nominal post and don't have to do any work, you must help me keep an eye on Wang Erhai. After all, our Chuncheng Garden has been fully entrusted to Mountain-Sea Real Estate for agency sales; no mistakes can occur in this. Do you understand my meaning?"

Lin Xiaolong said with a grin:

"Brother-in-law, just rest assured. With me watching, Wang Erhai definitely won't dare act recklessly. If you ask me to do work, I might not have that ability, but if you ask me to supervise others doing work, then I'm in my element."

Seeing his sloppy and careless appearance, Niu Chunsheng felt uneasy in his heart.

But things had come to this, he could only let him go do this job.

"Alright then, this matter is entrusted to you; you must not disappoint me."

Lin Xiaolong thought that Niu Chunsheng sending him to supervise Wang Erhai was equivalent to an ancient emperor dispatching an Imperial Envoy to supervise local officials; he completely misunderstood Niu Chunsheng's intention, and this led to a very absurd incident.

On his first day reporting for duty, he actually put on airs right in front of Wang Erhai.

"Boss Wang, I'm coming to work at your company, shouldn't you hold a welcome ceremony?"

At that time Wang Erhai was busy to the point of dizziness, and was still hoping Lin Xiaolong would help share some work pressure; he never expected Lin Xiaolong would not only show up with a head of yellow hair, but also demand a welcome ceremony upon first meeting.

"Brother Lin, let's focus on real business; there's no need for empty formalities. After all, Chuncheng Garden goes on sale October 1st, and we still have a lot of work not finished here; we need to rush the project deadline."

Wang Erhai politely smiled and explained, and also said:

"After the first wave of sales on October 1st passes, I'll treat Brother Lin to a big meal; at that time Brother Lin can eat whatever you want."

Actually Wang Erhai just didn't want to hold any welcome ceremony.

He was the top leader of this Mountain-Sea Real Estate branch company; where was the principle of a top leader holding a welcome ceremony for a nominal General Manager?

Even if Lin Xiaolong was sent by Niu Chunsheng, he had no need to lower his voice and curry favor with him!

After all, Mountain-Sea Real Estate and Spring City Real Estate were in a cooperative relationship, not a superior-subordinate relationship.

However, Lin Xiaolong didn't think so.

He thought that since Mountain-Sea Real Estate could get the Chuncheng Garden sales agency rights, they must serve Niu Chunsheng like an emperor; he, this Imperial Envoy dispatched by the emperor, naturally could not be slighted.

"Boss Wang, you don't understand etiquette. You can't even serve me well, how can you serve clients? I see your ability is limited; later I'll have to go say a couple of things about you to my brother-in-law."

Lin Xiaolong actually said such words directly to Wang Erhai's face.

Wang Erhai was immediately stunned speechless.

Is this guy a neurotic!

Watched too many TV dramas or what?

What words can be said to someone's face, what words cannot be said to someone's face — he actually can't distinguish at all!

Wang Erhai did not quarrel with Lin Xiaolong at the first moment; he felt there was no such necessity.

So he immediately suppressed the anger in his heart, and politely smiled and asked:

"Brother Lin, it's just a small matter, why bother alarming General Manager Niu? How about this: tonight I'll make time to treat you to a meal; what do you want to eat?"

Lin Xiaolong, however, said:

"I want to go to the Foot Massage Parlor to eat girls!"

Wang Erhai dry laughed out, then nodded:

"Okay, no problem."

Although Wang Erhai agreed verbally, in his heart he was already scheming how to make this yellow-haired punk leave.
