I stayed in Shenghai for one night, continued my business work during the next day, and had dinner with my classmates in Shenghai in the evening.
After graduation, everyone in the Finance Management Class went their separate ways. Some returned to their hometowns, while others continued to make their own way outside.
Among them, the majority stay in Lin'an. After all, their alma mater is here, and many people have already become familiar with and fallen in love with this beautiful ancient cultural city.
Apart from Lin'an, the most popular ones are Shenghai and Jinling.
After all, people go to high places and water flows to low places.
Shenghai is a large international city with many opportunities and high salaries. Jinling is the capital of Suzhou Province and is also very good.
Besides, a diploma from the School of Finance is accepted throughout the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Lu regions. If you move to a city in another province, many companies may not be interested in it.
Some others went to Guangdong and Shenzhen. After all, they are big cities in developed provinces and are very welcoming to foreign talents.
There are ten people working in Shenghai alone. In addition to Luo Xi, her roommate Naitang is also here, and there is Hou Yongjin in 302.
This was the first gathering of all the classmates who worked at Shenghai after graduation. Only Su Zelin had such appeal, and hundreds of people responded to his call. They all came after get off work and gave enough face to Hunzi. It also showed how loved Su Zelin was when he was the class monitor.
During the meal, the class beauty cried, "Boss, you said I am at least a deputy monitor, right? I have been in Shenghai for almost a month since graduation, and I have been called several times, but one person is not available, and that person is not available, even Naitang is busy. As soon as you say something, everyone is available. I am such a failure as a deputy monitor!"
Naitang laughed and said, "Ah Xi, I'm sorry. Last time, I really had a dinner party with my colleagues in the department. They are my seniors, so I have to honor them."
"Okay, okay, you don't have to explain. Explanation is just a cover-up. If the boss calls you, you will turn it down even if your colleagues have an appointment. You are a person who values women over friends!"
Luo Xi was very depressed.
During the meal, Su Zelin learned about everyone's work situation. Although everyone had complained about their units and companies before graduation, everyone is now gradually getting used to it and getting on track.
However, the people who are doing the best in Shenghai are not Luo Xi and Hou Yongjin, who have excellent academic performance in school, but someone else.
The old smoker was the boy who smoked heavily while in school. He had no money at the end of the month and had to ask Su Zelin for cigarettes. People nicknamed him the old smoker, and over time, people almost forgot his name.
The old smoker had average grades in school, but after graduation he actually got a job in the Finance Bureau of Shenghai HK District.
There were a group of people in my class who were doing internship at the Finance Bureau, but the only one who stayed was the heavy smoker.
Although this guy doesn't have much real ability, he is good at talking, bragging, flattering and trying to figure out the boss's thoughts. He is very popular with his superiors and should be able to get promoted after a few years.
In his previous life, he was indeed a heavy smoker. He would always have more cigarettes than others gave him, and he didn't need to buy any himself. Whenever Su Zelin came to Shenghai, he would always treat the smoker to a meal and give him two packs of cigarettes, saying that he had smoked so many cigarettes in college and he wanted to repay the favor.
This is a typical story of a small person rising to power.
"I heard that Nana opened a company in Lin'an?"
Lu Xiaofang, a girl from Room 506, suddenly thought of something.
The topic she raised also attracted everyone's attention.
"No way, Nanako really started a company?"
Luo Xi and Naitang were both stunned.
"Hey, you guys don't know about this either?"
Lu Xiaofang was a little surprised.
Luo Xi and Naitang are Nanazi's roommates, and the class beauty and Nanazi are best sisters. She thought the two should have heard of it.
“No!”
Naitang shook his head and asked curiously, "Xiaofang, how did you know?"
"Zhao Qian, my roommate in the second finance management class, works in the same office building as Nanazi's company, called Lina Clothing. She thought it was strange at the time, how could it have the same name as Nanazi's? Later she found out that it was really Nanazi's company!"
Lu Xiaofang gave a brief explanation.
506 is a mixed dormitory, some of which are girls from the Finance Management Class 2. Zhao Qian lives in the same dormitory with Lu Xiaofang and told her about this.
"A clothing company. Nanako told me before she graduated that what she wanted to be the most was a fashion designer. However, she didn't major in the related field, so she would definitely not be hired if she applied. She probably opened this company to realize her wish."
Luo Xi quickly guessed some of it.
"It takes a lot of money to start a company. Even if it's a small company, you have to invest at least 100,000 yuan. Nana is really rich!"
"Of course not. She comes from a wealthy family. She wore famous brands when she was in school and bought the best phones. She should have the support of her family when she started her own company this time!"
"I'm so envious. I didn't expect Nanako to become her own boss right after graduation."
"It's hard to say about doing business, and Nana has no experience at all, and she's not a professional, so can she open a clothing company?"
"I think there's an opportunity. As long as we have money, we can hire someone with experience to help take the helm. Besides, Nanako's sense of fashion is amazing, and her talent is there."
"… "
There are many different opinions, and this matter has caused quite a bit of heated discussion.
Most of the new graduates are wage earners, and it is quite rare for them to start their own business or even start a company, especially in this era when most people want a stable job.
Luo Xi's gaze couldn't help but drift towards Su Zelin. She had a hunch that Nanazi's company was probably related to the lazy squad leader.
Otherwise, Nanako's family would not agree to her starting a company right after graduation, and she herself probably wouldn't have the courage.
However, it is a different matter if there is support from Su Zelin, who is a senior executive at New Century and is familiar with business practices and management methods.
After dinner, they continued to go karaoke. During the KVT, the class beauty found an opportunity and whispered to Su Zelin, "Boss, you should have participated in Nana's company, right?"
"I guess I have a share." Hunzi did not deny it. "But she is the one who mainly manages the business. If she encounters any problems, she will ask me for advice. I am also very busy at New Century. I can't manage it."
Sure enough, I knew it was like this.
However, even if I can provide financial support to Nanako to start a company and help her solve problems, it is really enviable.
Luo Xi was actually a little envious of her best friend.
Lying down has its advantages. It can save you many years of hard work.
I also plan to make my own way in the future, but I don’t know how long I have to wait.
Nanako really knows how to choose her targets, as she is looking for a man like the class monitor to lie down with.
This scheming girl...
"Boss, if I start my own business in the future, you can invest some money and become a shareholder."
The class beauty was not willing to be outdone.
Although he had no intention of lying down, Luo Xi felt that given his deep friendship with the squad leader for four years, Su Zelin would definitely help him no matter what, but his help would not be as great as that of Nanazi.
"Didn't I teach you everything I knew when you were in college? I even gave you a secret manual. It's the culmination of my lifelong experience. As long as you understand it, you will be able to stand on your own, Xi, and you won't need me at all."
Su Zelin has confidence in her. Luo Xi was a successful career woman in her previous life. He has helped her grow faster in this life, so there is no reason for her not to succeed.
However, the class beauty at that time was not so confident yet, and she was a little jealous when she saw her best friend taking a shortcut and owning her own company so quickly.
"Your notebook is too profound. How can I understand it just by comprehending it? Besides, I don't want to be on my own. I'm also a girl. It would be great to have a man's broad shoulders to lean on! Boss, please, just agree to me!"
The class beauty used her beauty to seduce the boy and acted like a spoiled child. She hugged the boy's arm and shook him, speaking in a coquettish voice.
This was the first time in Su Zelin's life that he had seen her act like such a little woman. He was a little shaken, but he coughed dryly and said in a serious tone, "Ah Xi, please don't mess around. Men and women shouldn't touch each other, don't you know?"
"Boss, you've changed. You were not like this when we were in the Finance College. We used to be so close, and you even said that this relationship would never change after graduation. But it's only been a month since graduation, and you've already forgotten the old one!"
Luo Xi looked resentful.
The gangster was a little speechless, thinking that one can eat whatever he wants but one cannot say whatever he wants.
There is nothing between me and you. We are just good friends at best.
"Anyway, Boss, you have to promise to help me and Nanako the same in the future!"
After acting coquettishly, the class beauty started to act unreasonably again.
Su Zelin thought to himself that Nana Zi had made sacrifices, but you didn't.
He found that Luo Xi would become a different person after drinking a few more glasses. The same was true when he pretended to be her boyfriend during his internship. He even kissed him in front of that foreign boss.
Maybe she will forget about it after waking up tomorrow.
So Su Zelin casually said, "Okay, okay, I promise you, let go, stop shaking, or you'll have to drink herbal tea!"
"What does it mean to shake it again and drink herbal tea?"
Luo Xi asked curiously.
“It will make you angry!”
Su Zelin's answer was brief and concise.
"Bah, pervert!"
The class beauty spat, but felt a little proud in her heart.
I thought the boss didn't see me as a girl, but it turns out I do have some appeal to him.
"Boss, I'll toast you first and thank you. Don't forget what you promised me tonight!"
"I know!"
At this time, when Mai Ba's candy came back, Luo Xi let go of his hand without saying a word.
Su Zelin immediately ran away and went to drink with the boys.
Naitang asked with a half-smile: "Ah Xi, you and the squad leader are having an affair, right?"
"Um, what do you mean?"
The class beauty was a little confused by her roommate's sudden remark.
"Come on, I saw it all!"
Even though they were singing karaoke just now, Naitang saw every little move the two made in the box.
"Nutella, you misunderstood. It's nothing. I actually asked the monitor for a favor, but he was a bit stubborn, so I used the honey trap and successfully made him give in."
The class beauty hurriedly explained.
Naitang was skeptical, but did not ask any further questions.
The two had a very good relationship when they were in school. After Nanazi got taken, many people in the class even thought that the class beauty and the gangster could be together, but in the end, there was no news until graduation.
Since everyone had to go to work the next day and couldn't play too late, they sang karaoke until around 11 o'clock and then left the KTV.
Before leaving, the old smoker pulled Su Zelin aside, took out a pack of Furong Wang from his briefcase, and grinned: "Boss, I smoked cigarettes all day when I was in school. This is my gift to you!"
Su Zelin was amused by him.
What kind of filial piety do you mean? Are you treating me as your father
"Hey, you kid, you're so rich?"
Su Zelin was a little surprised. He remembered that a heavy smoker would have to wait for about two years before he didn't have to buy cigarettes himself.
"That's not the case!"
The old smoker quickly clarified: "Isn't it the first month's salary? I have some money on hand. I heard that the boss came to Shenghai. You have been so caring to me in the past, so I should at least give you a whole pack of cigarettes. Although it is not as good as your special supply, it is at least a small token of my appreciation."
The old smoker was very sincere.
When he was in school, he swore that as long as he graduated, found a job and got paid, he would buy Su Zelin a pack of cigarettes to express his gratitude when he came to Shenghai.
Although he knew that Su Zelin had no shortage of cigarettes and smoked special supplies all day long, he had to make his attitude clear that he was not an ungrateful person.
"Okay, I'll take it then!"
Su Zelin knew what this gift meant to the old smoker, so he did not refuse.
While taking the cigarette, he patted his shoulder and said earnestly: "Old smoker, in the future when you help others with things, you can take some things, but don't go too far."
The old smoker nodded and said, "I know, Boss. I still have the most basic bottom line. I don't seek to be rich, I just want to smoke a few packs of good cigarettes in this life!"
"That's fine, see you next time!"
"Boss, goodbye, come to Shenghai anytime to meet me!"
"… "
After saying goodbye to the heavy smoker, I took a taxi back to the hotel without saying anything else.
On the other side, Luo Xi also got into a taxi.
Suddenly thinking of something, the class beauty took out her cell phone and dialed a number.
"Nana, I heard that you opened a clothing company in Lin'an. You didn't even tell my sisters. That's really mean of you!"
As soon as the call was connected, Luo Xi started complaining.
"Hey, Ah Xi, how did you know?"
Nanako on the other end of the phone sounded a little surprised: "Did the monitor tell you that?"
She knew that Su Zelin went on a business trip to Shenghai these two days, but unfortunately the company had just opened and there was a lot of work to do, otherwise Nanazi would have come with him.
"No, Lu Xiaofang said that her roommate in the second financial management class lives in the same office building as your company. Mention it during dinner tonight, otherwise Naitang and I will still be kept in the dark!"
Luo Xi was a little depressed. She felt that she and Nanazi were best friends and shouldn't have such secrets.
"We haven't achieved any results yet. We call it a company, but it's just a small workshop at the moment, so I'm embarrassed to tell you, haha."
"Come on, with the boss's support and your own talent, your company will definitely be successful, Nana, keep going!"
No matter what, Luo Xi still sent her blessings to her best friend.
"Ah Xi, thank you, you are really my good sister!"
Nanako said she was very touched.
"Well, even though we are no longer in the same city, we still want to be good sisters for life!"
"That's a must!"
"… "
She hung up the phone after chatting for a while. Long-distance charges were quite expensive at that time. She didn’t think it was a big deal when she was in school, as she was using her family’s money after all. However, after she started working, the class beauty knew how to live.
Nana, I'm so sorry. In order to get the boss to agree to help with investment in the future, I used a little honey trick on your boyfriend tonight.
We have such a good relationship, you won’t blame me, right
