Chapter 109: The Cafeteria Storm (Part 2)
"Director Lin, this suit I'm wearing was really bought from a regular large shopping mall, and it really cost tens of thousands of yuan. I never thought that what I bought would turn out to be counterfeit! When I go back, I'll definitely find the person in charge of the mall and have a good argument with them!" Sun Dejiang continued to argue stubbornly.
Lin San sneered: "Since you keep saying that your suit cost tens of thousands, fine, take it out and let me see."
"......It's already gone......" Sun Dejiang hesitated and said awkwardly.
"That's it, stop making excuses. From tomorrow on, you don't have to come to work at Ding Sheng Group anymore." A hint of disgust flashed across Lin San's face.
Sun Dejiang was stunned for a moment, then his face changed: "You... are you going to fire me?"
Lin San nodded: "That's right."
"Director Lin, what have I done wrong? You want to fire me!" Sun Dejiang shouted loudly.
"Because you are so arrogant, someone like you who lacks quality doesn't even deserve to continue staying in the Ding Sheng Group." Lin San said expressionlessly.
"I refuse!" Sun Dejiang said with a red face and thick neck.
"Whether you like it or not, in short, don't open except for this." Lin San waved his hand: "Security guards come in." Each floor has security guards.
A sudden rush of footsteps came, and two security guards ran into the restaurant.
Lin Sansheng pointed at Sun Dejiang: "Get him out of the company for me, and never let him set foot in the company again."
Two security guards responded in unison and lifted Sun Dejiang up, carrying him towards the door.
"What right do you have to fire me? I don't accept it, I'm going to complain to the chairman! I don't accept it..." All along the way, Sun Dejiang was loudly shouting.
"Alright, nothing's wrong, let's all go eat." Lin San waved his hand at the people in the cafeteria.
The staff in the restaurant immediately sat down and quietly started eating their meal.
"Vice President Lin, thank you." Meng Xue said gratefully.
"It's just a small matter, don't take it to heart. If you encounter unfair treatment again in the future, come find me directly." Lin San said warmly.
"Ah." Meng Xue nodded repeatedly.
"Alright, let's go eat." Lin San smiled and walked into the private dining room.
Meng Xue let out a long sigh and silently muttered to herself: Deputy General Manager Lin, you are a good person, I will never forget you in the future!
Sun Dejiang, who was driven out of the restaurant, broke free from the restraint of two security guards halfway and ran into the elevator to the 30th floor, intending to complain to Gu Jialan, but unfortunately, Gu Jialan was not in the office.
Two security guards rushed to the 30th floor and grabbed Sun Dejiang, ready to take him downstairs.
Sun Dejiang shouted loudly and struggled.
The huge movement finally startled Gu Jialan's full-time secretary, Xiaohong.
Xiao Hong was eating lunch in her office when she heard a commotion coming from the hallway. She immediately furrowed her brow, put down her lunchbox and walked out of the office to see Sun Dejiang entangled with two security guards. She lightly shouted: "What's going on?"
Seeing Xiao Hong, Sun Dejiang was like seeing a lifesaver and shouted loudly: "I want to see the chairman, I want to complain!"
Xiao Hong waved her hand and let the two security guards release Sun Dejiang. She asked in a low voice, "The chairman is not here, you'd better come back tomorrow."
"No way! I have an urgent matter. I was fired by Lin San for no reason, and I don't accept it. I want the chairman to do me justice!" Sun Dejiang shouted loudly.
Xiao Hong furrowed her brow: "Wait a minute, I'll call the chairman and ask." After finishing speaking, Xiao Hong walked to one side, took out her mobile phone and dialed Gu Jialan.
The phone rang for several times before it was answered, and Gu Jialan's slightly dissatisfied voice came through: "Xiao Hong, didn't I tell you not to disturb me when I'm having dinner with clients?"
"I'm sorry, Chairman. I've encountered some difficulties here and had no choice but to call you..." Little Red explained hastily.
"What's wrong?" Gu Jialan's tone softened a bit.
"Sales Manager Sun Dejiang is making a scene on the 30th floor, saying he wants to complain to you..." Little Red simply described what had happened: "Just now, Deputy General Manager Lin fired Manager Sun."
"Who fired Sun Dejiang?" Gu Jialan didn't hear clearly.
"Vice President Lin." Little Red repeated.
The phone on the other end fell silent for a moment, and then Gu Jialan's cold voice came through: "Since it was Vice President Lin who fired him, let's just carry out the order. I have urgent matters to attend to here, don't bother me again. If you really encounter an unsolvable problem, go ask Vice President Lin directly." After finishing speaking, Gu Jialan hung up the phone.
Xiao Hong put away her phone and glanced at the two security guards standing behind Sun Dejiang: "Get him out of the company." After finishing, she turned around and walked into the office.
Two security guards didn't say a word, one grabbed an arm and dragged him towards the elevator.
Sun Dejiang struggled violently and wanted to go find Xiao Hong again, but the two security guards were somewhat impatient and gave Sun Dejiang a punch.
Sun Dejiang's eyelids rolled back and he fainted, being dragged into the elevator by two security guards like a dead dog.
It's already time to get off work in the late afternoon.
Lin San put on his coat and walked out of the office, taking the elevator down from the building.
"Third Brother!" Long Xiao Tian had been waiting at the entrance of the building for a long time.
"Have you been here for a long time?" Lin San asked with a smile.
"Just arrived, Third Brother, let's go to the car and talk." As he spoke, Long Xuetian reached out and opened the door of a Mercedes-Benz.
Lin San didn't stand on ceremony either and sat down in the back seat with a bow.
Long Xiao Tian sat down beside Lin San, looked up and instructed the driver: "Drive."
The driver responded with a "yes", started the car and slowly drove away.
"Shall we go directly to the auction?" Lin San took out two cigarettes, threw one to Long Xiao Tian and lit one for himself.
Long Xiao Tian took out a lighter, first lit Lin San's cigarette and then his own: "Right, we'll go directly to Guo Dongming's Cuifei Pavilion for the auction." After saying that, he was afraid that Lin San didn't know what Cuifei Pavilion was, so he explained again: "Cuifei Pavilion is actually a high-end entertainment venue, covering a large area, with many recreational activities inside. However, there is one thing - Cuifei Pavilion only receives those wealthy tycoons, ordinary working-class people can't get in."
Lin San nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
An hour later, the Mercedes-Benz car slowly stopped in front of a three-story small building.
Long Xiao Tian got off one step ahead and opened the car door for Lin San.
Lin San got off the car, looked up at the three-story building, and secretly admired it: Still majestic! The two sides of this small building each have a stone-carved large column, with vivid dragons carved on the columns. At the entrance, there are two stone lions as tall as one person on either side. Above the door is a magnificent plaque with three large characters "Cui Yu Ge" written in a flying dragon and phoenix style. What's most surprising is that this small building is entirely made up of huge blocks of stone, extremely grand and majestic!
"When I first came here, I was also shocked by the momentum of this small building. I have to say, this Guo Dongming is really good at enjoying himself." Long Xiantian sighed and said.
Lin San slightly nodded his head and was about to speak when a young man in a white suit walked out of the small building.
The young man glanced at Lin San and Long Xiaotian for a few moments, slightly bowing his waist: "Are you two here to attend the auction?"
Long Xiao Tian nodded: "Yes."
"Please give me the invitation." The young man said politely.
Long Xiao Tian took out a beautifully designed invitation from his pocket and handed it over to the young man.
The young man carefully read it over once and then led Lin San and Long Xiaotian into the small building.
The interior decoration of the small building is even more magnificent and splendid, it's like a miniature palace.
The young man led Lin San and Long Xiao Tian to the third floor, pushed open a wide door: "The auction is being held in here, please come in." After finishing speaking, the young man turned around and left.
Lin San and Long Xiao Tian exchanged a glance before walking into the house together.
This is a large hall with an area of hundreds of square meters. In the center of the hall, there are dozens of leather chairs, and more than ten people are sitting on the chairs talking in low voices. At the front, there is a high platform covered with red carpet, on which stands a vertical speaker's podium and a wooden counter.
A huge crystal chandelier hung from the ceiling of the hall, illuminating the hall as bright as daylight.
Long Xiao Tian and Lin San walked to the center of the hall, pulled out the last row of chairs and sat down. At this time, people who knew Long Xiao Tian turned their heads to greet him, and Long Xiao Tian also responded with a smile.
Lin San glanced around the hall and didn't see a single familiar face.
In the hall there were two beautiful women wearing cheongsam, holding a tray in their hands, constantly serving wine and drinks to guests sitting on chairs.
"The people sitting in front are some of the rich men from Lan Zhou, one or two of them are wealthy merchants from the provincial city." Long Xiao Tian whispered to Lin San.
Lin nodded three times, indicating that he understood.
After a while, several middle-aged men with extraordinary air walked in one after another and sat down beside Long Xiao Tian and Lin San.
"Bang!" The door was suddenly pushed open with great force.
Lin San's puzzled head turned around, and he was stunned for a moment. He saw a woman dressed in extremely noble attire walking slowly into the room under the protection of a group of bodyguards.
"Huh?" Long Xiao Tian suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Lin San asked curiously.
Long Xiaotian furrowed his brow: "This woman is called Cai Chunhua, who married a well-known real estate businessman in the provincial city several years ago. Two years ago, the real estate businessman passed away due to illness. Since he had no children, the tens of billions of assets were all inherited by Cai Chunhua, making her the richest woman in the province. She was even interviewed by the newspaper once before."
"How did you know her?" Lin San asked curiously.
Long Xiao Tian smiled: "A few days ago, I met Cai Chunhua at a banquet hosted by Guo Dongming. I heard that the relationship between Guo Dongming and Cai Chunhua is very good."
"Oh, this Guo Dongming really has a wide range of connections." Lin San nodded.
Just then, a man in a black suit rushed in from the entrance and stretched out his hand to stop Chunhua.
A dozen or so bodyguards of Cai Chunhua immediately surrounded the man in black suit, their faces full of vigilance.
The girl glanced at the man, slightly furrowing her brow: "Who are you? What are you doing blocking me?"
The man bowed respectfully to Cai Chunhua: "Mr. Cai, I'm sorry, there's a rule here that bodyguards can't enter the auction site."
Cai Chunhua was taken aback: "I am good friends with you and President Guo."
"It's just that Mr. Guo stipulated that guests attending the auction are not allowed to bring bodyguards in, at most one or two companions." The man spoke with great respect.
"Oh." Cai Chunhua hesitated for a moment: "Since it's Guo's rule, I'll give him some face. You all wait outside the door." The last sentence was directed at a group of bodyguards beside her.
The bodyguards responded in unison and left the room one after another.
The man thanked Cai Chunhua and left with him.
Cai Chunhua scanned the hall and walked straight to the middle seat in the first row.
Several men who looked still quite young immediately came up and chatted with Cai Chunhua, who had an expression of loving to care or not.
