Chapter 1339: Business at the Dining Table

~7 min read 1,358 words

"Sometimes, even for projects I myself am not optimistic about, as long as you join in, the speed and efficiency go up."

"Really? Then won't you consider giving me a raise? I'm a driver, a part-time bodyguard, and I even have to accompany you to negotiate business; I'm truly omnipotent," Chen Yu said.

"Your salary has already been rising at rocket speed; besides, you aren't short on money," Liu Ruxi glared at him.

"I am short on money, how could I not be?" Chen Yu said helplessly, "How do you know I'm not short on money?"

"Do you really think I'm stupid? From your usual behavior and mannerisms, I can tell you aren't short on money," Liu Ruxi glared at him and said, "And I have a feeling you come from a wealthy background and are even a Cultivator. Although I don't know what your purpose is for running to my side now, I'll squeeze as much out of you as I can."

Chen Yu was speechless; the evils of capitalism.

Upon arriving at the location, it was a drinking party, and the other party was a nouveau riche; it was said that this boss used to dig coal.

But later, the state tightened control over that area, so he changed professions. Although he was a nouveau riche, he had a keen business mind, so by trial and error, he ended up at the forefront of the advertising and live-streaming industry.

This actually surprised Chen Yu a bit; this guy wore a big gold chain and looked fierce, but he was actually quite kind-hearted.

"President Xu, look, although my company hasn't been started for long, the company's development is something others cannot compare to," Liu Ruxi smiled, "Your technology can just make up for my shortcomings, and I dare guarantee that the return our company gives you is the highest in the industry."

"This is our company's revenue report from the past few years; you can take a look. I am a person who never boasts."

Chen Yu listened from the side and almost laughed; Liu Ruxi had just boasted a bit too much.

Glaring at Chen Yu, Liu Ruxi took out a financial report.

"Miss Liu, don't show me the financial report. The previous few also came to show me financial reports, and I rejected them directly. I know this stuff can be faked," President Xu said carelessly, "I have also investigated your company. To be honest, it is indeed much more suitable than the previous few that came."

"Then President Xu, does that mean you agree?" Liu Ruxi was delighted; she hadn't expected things to progress so smoothly.

"No, whether I can agree or not, I still have to investigate further," President Xu shook his head repeatedly, "We are just eating tonight, we won't talk about other things."

"President Xu... what other parts are you unclear about? Just bring them up to me, and I will explain them to you one by one," Liu Ruxi said helplessly.

"No questions at all. When eating, we just eat; we don't talk about anything else." President Xu was also a stubborn person; he said he wouldn't talk, so he wouldn't talk, and there was really nothing others could do.

Liu Ruxi was helpless. She smiled and said, "Alright then, let's eat. But I think you should really consider it carefully, President Xu; if we can sign the Contract today, let's just sign it."

"President Liu, there are some things I don't want to say," President Xu put down his chopsticks, "You women don't understand the culture at the dining table."

"Dining table culture? What dining table culture?" Liu Ruxi looked at him, puzzled.

"President Xu likes to drink," Chen Yu gave her a hint.

"Alcohol, oh, come, come, I'll toast President Xu," Liu Ruxi suddenly realized and raised her red wine.

"This wine won't do," Chen Yu was helpless. Liu Ruxi's business was indeed smooth sailing, but she really didn't understand the culture at the dining table; this President Xu wasn't used to drinking red wine.

"Waiter, bring two bottles of Erguotou," Chen Yu turned his head and called out.

"Brother, you're the one who understands me," President Xu immediately gave Chen Yu a thumbs up. He laughed loudly, "I'm a rough person; this kind of red wine is too bourgeois. I don't understand this sentiment, and I'm not used to drinking it."

"As for Moutai... haha, I'm not used to drinking that either. I just like liquor like Erguotou."

"President Xu, I'll drink properly with you today," Chen Yu laughed heartily, turned his head to look at Liu Ruxi and said, "Our President Liu is allergic to white spirits, so she won't be accompanying you."

"Fine, as long as someone accompanies me, that's enough. As long as I can drink to my heart's content, I'll sign the Contract with you today," President Xu looked at Chen Yu.

"Chen Yu, you must accompany President Xu well today," Liu Ruxi was overjoyed.

"Don't worry, I will definitely accompany President Xu well today," Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"Brother, you might not know my capacity for alcohol," President Xu smiled slightly, "When I drink, I can drink until dawn."

"That impressive?" Chen Yu laughed, "President Xu, my capacity might not be as good as yours, but I consider myself decent. Haha, shall we have a drink?"

"Looks like I've met my match today," President Xu looked at Chen Yu and laughed loudly, "I just like dealing with people like you. Come..."

As they spoke, several bottles of wine were brought up.

Chen Yu turned to the waiter and said, "This isn't enough, bring two more cases over."

"Sir, are you... sure?" The waiter looked at Chen Yu, not quite believing it.

"Sure, go get them," Chen Yu waved his hand and said, "Also, bring two large bowls. President Xu and I must drink happily today."

"Fine, brother, it seems your capacity for alcohol is quite good," President Xu nodded, "Then we'll do it your way."

The waiter went to get the wine with a nervous heart. A moment later, two large bowls and several cases of wine were brought up.

Chen Yu didn't waste words; he took the wine, opened it, and poured it into the large bowls. One bowl could hold three catties of wine. Before long, the two large bowls were filled to the brim.

"Hehe, President Xu, I toast you," Chen Yu picked up a bowl.

"Haha, good, I just like your massive capacity," President Xu laughed loudly and picked up his large bowl.

Then the two of them hugged their large bowls and drank, leaving Liu Ruxi on the side staring in a daze.

Draining more than half the bowl in one breath, President Xu put the bowl on the table and said refreshingly, "Satisfying! Hehe, I haven't drunk so freely in a long time."

"Haha, I haven't met a match in a long time either. President Xu truly has a massive capacity," Chen Yu smiled slightly and put down the large bowl in his hand, "People from where you are, President Xu, are naturally forthright, and I also like dealing with people like you."

"I also like dealing with a brother like you; people who can drink are all open-minded," President Xu gave a thumbs up, "Your capacity is very good, let's have another."

"Good," Chen Yu didn't hesitate either, hugging his bowl and starting in.

The three-catty capacity of wine was finished by the two of them in less than ten minutes.

Later, finding it too troublesome to pour, they just drank straight from the bottles.

President Xu's capacity was truly large; the two of them drank until the second half of the night before he was finally knocked down.

"Brother, good capacity... you can really drink. The waves of the Yangtze River push the waves ahead," President Xu snored and waved his hand, "I can't do it anymore, I'm old. When I was young, you wouldn't have been able to outdrink me. Another day, let's do it another day."

"President Xu, another day is fine, but can you sign the Contract today?" Chen Yu smiled.
