Chapter 902 (1/2)

Chen Qing said as she stepped into the gate of the courtyard.

In addition to a pair of waitresses on both sides of the gate, there are four other girls standing in front of the screen wall. One of them, hearing Chen Qing's words, raised her head slightly and dropped her eyes quickly.

Chen Qing noticed the little action of the maid and pointed to the other side: ”take us in for a walk.”

Seeing that Chen Qing pointed to her, the waitress bowed politely, made a gesture of invitation, motioned to the side door, and said in fluent English, ”OK, Miss Chen, Ms. Brent, this way, please.”

Emmanuel followed Chen Qing to step into the left side door under the guidance of the maid, and then went into the second door. He noticed one thing and asked, ”strange, why isn't the gate just in the middle of the yard?”

Chen Qing walked in the front, looking around the completely rebuilt house garden corridor, smelling Yan Chao and the maid beside him said: ”do you know, explain it to her?”

After Chen Qing asked, Emmanuel just changed his Chinese and replied in Mandarin: ”Ms. Brent, this is the layout according to the Chinese geomantic omen theory. Among the five elements and eight trigrams, Xun trigram is in the southeast. The five elements belong to the wind, which is conducive to travel. Therefore, the main gate of the courtyard is built in the southeast, which means that it is in and out of the city Ann

Emmanuel listened carefully. When the waitress finished, she nodded and said, ”it's really interesting. I'm more interested in this matter. Can you recommend me a book about five elements and eight trigrams in China?”

The waitress said: ”the book of changes is the root of all the five elements and eight trigrams in China. However, maid Brent, this book is so obscure that even ordinary Chinese people can't understand it. ”

”Do you understand?”

The waitress hesitated a little and said, ”if it's just a simple explanation, I can help.”

”Well, you teach me these days.”

The maid looked at Chen Qing in front of her. Seeing that she didn't object, she nodded slightly: ”it's my pleasure.”

Three people into Jiangshan dance, avoid Chen Qing's eyes, do not answer.

Chen Qing said: ”who is not a cud dog. So, don't forget what I said just now, and don't think about the big deal. I'm quitting. You're so smart. Maybe you don't know who you're serving. However, since such a courtyard has come in, where is it so easy to go out? ”

Chen Qing said, turned to the nearest side door.

Katherine Elgar keeps up with her. Of course, she finds that Chen Qing is in a state of anger. Her boss, how to say, is as meek as a kitten in front of a man. It's hard to get along with her on weekdays. She looked inquisitively at Emmanuel, who was following her. Seeing that she just shrugged, Catherine gave up the idea of inquisition.

Catherine's ”ranyue” is one of the members of Chen Qing's team in China. She is 35 years old. She was also a member of the public in Shanghai earlier. After Chen Qing successfully established herself with Simon, she lobbied ranyue to help herself. In recent years, the tide of going down to the sea in China has been hot. Ran Yue, who is 35 years old and still at the level of deputy section, also knows that she can't have a great future if she stays up any longer. In addition, Chen Qing's salary is very generous, so she resolutely quit her job.

However, ran Yue's husband, who also works in a government department and is only half a level higher than her, did not resign. This is a way out. This is also Chen Qing's suggestion.

The main reason is that both ran Yue and her husband Cheng Shangxin are considered to be a public family. It's only because of various reasons in those years that the direct support of the husband and wife was all gone, that the climb was hopeless. However, both the ran family and the Cheng family still have a lot of contacts.

It's just networking.

How to say.

As the old saying goes, poor in downtown, no one asked, rich in the mountains have distant relatives.

Everyone has equal status with each other and can exchange resources with each other. That's the best state of networking. Otherwise, it's the most unreliable thing to rely on friendship, and it will be gone after several times of consumption.

Ran Yue and his wife were in this state at the beginning.

Then, ran Yue chose to resign to help Chen Qing, and in a disguised form, she caught up with the thick leg of the westero system, because the westero system has a variety of movements in the southeast coast, including Shanghai, which also has a variety of projects, and always needs official contacts. Therefore, the dead chess game between ran and Cheng, which was already hopeless, was revived again.

In the past year, Cheng Shangxin not only successfully stepped up one level, but also stepped from the original Qingshui yamen Department into the core Department of the development and Reform Commission of a municipality directly under the central government.

Of course, the same is true of the westero system.

Through the introduction of Ran Yue and his wife, Chen Qing has developed a very extensive network in Shanghai, because she only uses the influence of various projects of the westero system to push the boat along the river, and does not make any substantial efforts. In other words, she will gain more.

Chen Qing came to the reception hall in the front courtyard of the quadrangle. A round faced woman in a white suit with a shawl and long hair, at least fashionable in China, got up from her chair. Several other attendants also got up.

Chen Qing warmly extended her arms and hugged ran Yue. She said with a smile, ”sister ran, it's really hard for you. You haven't been back to Shanghai for so many days. Brother Cheng must be scolding me.”Ran Yue also hugged Chen Qing and said with a smile, ”that ghost will not miss me. Maybe she has already hooked up with many little girls.”

”Oh, brother Cheng is not that kind of person.”

They were talking and laughing, and ran Yue introduced some of them. Except one of the girls was ran Yue's assistant, the other three men of different ages were all big names in the jade circle of Beijing.

Ran Yue and others came here this time mainly because Simon had told all the girls of Guofeng art group to prepare jade nameplates.
