Chapter 240 Friends Circle
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the dining peak was already past, and there were only a few customers in the store. They looked like white-collar workers who had just got off work in the nearby office building. They were a little tired and relieved. At this time, they had no interest in chatting and just sat silently in the booth to deal with their own set meal.
The little girl standing behind the bar to welcome guests was quite envious of these white-collar workers who usually received higher education and looked very glamorous.
Now that I have contacted more, I sometimes feel that it is not easy for them. I have no guarantee of working hours and fewer opportunities for promotion. The welfare benefits may not be as high as those of them. As for income, most of them are definitely not as high as store managers...
For me, it would be natural for me to work hard for a few years and be promoted to a store manager. By then, not only will my income increase a lot, but I can also apply to transfer to other companies in the group as a supervisor. Although every transfer requires resignation audit and pre-service training, my own development space can be said to be unlimited, and I will definitely not work hard for several years and still stand still.
So even though she is still a cashier and waiter now, when facing these white-collar workers she had envied before, she felt that she had more and more psychological advantages.
The whole person's mental state is naturally not bad, at least worse than those who seem a little sluggish nowadays.
When Feng Yiping came in, he saw a little girl who was still energetic and enthusiastic after the evening rush hour. "Hello, welcome," she said greetings as soon as possible when she saw someone coming in, and then she realized, "Mr. Feng?" The little girl seemed to be a little unbelievable in her eyes.
"It's me, thank you for your hard work. I'll give me a bowl of noodles and a wheat cake with lean green onion. Where are you?"
"I want beef noodles, pickled wheat cakes, and a sticky rice chicken," said Xiao Zhijie.
"I'm the same as his, how much does it cost to add a plate of peanuts?" Wang Changning ordered the last meal and paid the money.
The news was already known in the kitchen. Several people wearing chef's clothes took turns to look around at the door of the kitchen. The boss came to the store to eat noodles. There were not many opportunities like this.
Feng Yiping rarely comes to the noodle restaurant. After receiving the two people who also worked overtime in the evening, he turned around on the road to find food and decided to eat noodles.
When I asked at that time, the three of them were the same, but they had not taken care of the noodle shop business for at least half a year, and they all felt a little guilty.
"Well, the wheat cakes are fragrant, and they have always tasted this way, it's delicious,"
"I still remember when I was in the village, we often had one of three people, right?" Wang Changning said.
At that time, they failed to make pasta. The wheat cakes they made either had too little filling and didn't get the filling after half of their eating, or they had too much filling and couldn't even wrap it up. They broke after baking on low heat in the pot.
The buns they made were even more failed and they couldn't get them all, so these two things were the ones they rarely bought outside.
"The wheat cakes I make now are not worse than this one," said Wang Changning.
Feng Yiping believes that during the holidays, they all helped in their own noodle restaurants, and they made all kinds of processes, so it was naturally no problem to make a wheat cake.
"Yiping, I can't figure out a problem. Some of the people we come into contact with are always socializing with people in the business circle. Now that you have achieved this, aren't there any friends who are both big bosses?"
"Have you never taken the time to have dinner with them, and talk about recent updates, whether there are any opportunities to cooperate, etc." Xiao Zhijie was a little curious.
“Isn’t it necessary to spend time making friends and joining circles, whether it is for individuals or companies?”
"Friend?" Feng Yiping shook his head, "It's enough to have you two."
In the original time and space, the three of them later lived in three places, and each started their own families and had children and bonds. Not to mention meeting, they even called less frequently. On average, they could not contact each other once a month. It seems that they are not as good as being close to some people around them.
In fact, it is not the case that the "friends" around you who often go out to activities together cannot compare with them no matter what.
When there are any difficulties, just call, don’t even mention the reason, just say what you need. The other two will do their best to meet your requirements without saying anything. Many brothers cannot do such a thing.
Sometimes, you will receive their hurried calls, with no end and just a few words, which will make you a little confused. You may not understand why the inexplicable phone call is when you see the news later: there are some sudden events in your place that day, such as natural disasters or major safety accidents, and as soon as they see such news, they will call to confirm whether you are safe.
In this way, friends who will not become distant because of time, space, or contact... Feng Yiping does not expect to meet more friends. It is enough to have them.
"Besides, do you still hope to find a real friend in the business world?"
"Including the circle you mentioned, there are indeed some opportunities. For example, in a circle, a said, I want to build a factory, b said, I happen to have a piece of land, c followed the previous sentence, I happen to have the equipment you need...,"
"I don't need that opportunity, and I'm tired of such social engagements. There is no need and I don't want to get involved in the circle. The only circle is the circle of the three of us,"
"Yes, now other people want to enter your circle," said Wang Changning.
"Do you have so many people? For example, if you ask you to play golf or invite you to attend some dinner?" Xiao Zhijie said.
They did not continue to talk about the topic of "friends". Their relationship was definitely not as sensational as Aunt Ni Ping.
"It turned out that some people actually contacted me on their own initiative or sent me invitations for any event. Later, when I saw me, I didn't go there once, and slowly no one came to ask for fun again."
"You also know that these successful guys are generally arrogant and unwilling to do things like hot faces and cold ass,"
"This is actually quite good. Look at so many people who have had an accident in the past two years, and you don't interact with them, and in fact you have lost a lot of trouble," said Wang Changning.
"Yes, the circle is big, there are all kinds of people, and there are many right and wrong," said Xiao Zhijie.
"We have to go to work tomorrow, so we can't send you there."
"When did you send it?" Feng Yiping smiled and lowered his voice, "When we have been busy for a while, we will go to the beach to see the beauty?"
"If you don't go, you will be a green leaf for you when you go. There will always be beautiful girls coming to see you, such as the time in Hawaii. Do you still remember Lao Wang?" Xiao Zhijie asked Wang Changning.
"I don't envy this. If there are too many beauties looking for him, it may not be a good thing for him," Wang Changning said very considerately. "And there is also Yiping. When Tongcheng.com was established, if you were not in China, there was no need to come back specifically,"
…………
Marling is now very annoyed. Since Pace met Vincent in the city center and heard him say, "Dad has been on business abroad for a long time." On campus, at the beginning, she often "meets" Pace.
It has developed to this point, and it is a blatant pursuit.
Every afternoon before returning home, Pace would always ask her out with various reasons. Even if he didn't succeed once, he still persisted in defeating and fighting again and again.
Many people in the school now know that Ma Ling has a very infatuated suitor.
This is also not a good thing. Not only did it successfully cause trouble for Ma Ling, but it also made some girls dislike her and dislike her.
The logic of girls is sometimes strange. They often don’t like girls who pursue them with good comprehensive conditions.
However, Ma Ling has always been accustomed to being alone and has long since no one cared about such things.
But Pace's dog skin plaster is really annoying.
At around 3:00 p.m., Ma Ling rode an electric bike back to the parking lot. When she saw the Lamborghini parked behind her Lexus RX, she couldn't help but frown immediately.
Just like the previous few days, when he saw Maling, Pace immediately came out of the car, and must have been holding a bouquet of red roses in his hand.
"Ma Ling, I'll give it to you," Pace handed over the flowers carefully selected in his hand.
Ma Ling didn't even look at him, "I'm sorry, I've said it many times, I won't accept it."
I have heard this more than once, and Pace didn't care. He smiled and threw the flower in the car, trying to take Ma Ling's electric car, "I'll put it on,"
How could Ma Ling let him touch him now? "No,"
This is a bit accustomed to it, and Pace still stood by with a smile on his face, "Ma Ling, this weekend, some of us go skiing in Pennsylvania, are we together? I think Vincent would like this place,"
“Sorry, we have plans for the weekend,”
"There is also an invitation to the premiere of movies in Los Angeles. Why not go together? Friends' business planes are very convenient to go back and forth,"
"Pace," Ma Ling did not rush to leave this time, "I understand what you mean, I think I have said it clearly enough. If you don't understand, I will say it clearly again. My boyfriend and I have a good relationship!"
It's weird that, the relationship is very good. Will your son say that he has been on business abroad for a long time? Is this an excuse for General Motors to break up with his boyfriend?
"Marling, I have no other meaning. I like Vincent very much. I hope to have the opportunity to take him around. In addition, in addition to the embassy and consulate, there are many people who are from Capitol Hill and Wall Street. It is said that Chelsea (Clinton's daughter) will also go. It is not a bad thing for you to meet more new friends,"
He also planned to use the saying of expanding his circle of friends to ask Ma Ling out.
"I'm not interested at all. I hope that starting from tomorrow, I won't encounter these meaningless things again," Ma Ling was naturally unmoved.
"Maling," Pace called her again, "Vincent is at his age and needs his father's company, and I'm happy to serve,"
Anyway, he decided that Ma Ling didn't have a boyfriend to accompany him now, and Vincent didn't have any pain to him.
Ma Ling was annoyed, "You don't need to ask about Vincent's affairs, and I don't need to worry about my life,"
"Okay," Pais laughed, "Can I get an invitation for Vincent's birthday party?"
This is also what Vincent said. His father will definitely attend his birthday. Pace really wants to see if that person really appears, and what kind of person he is.
If Vincent is right, "often on business trips overseas", he must not be young, he would not be an old man!
"Sorry, this party is not open to the public, please get out of the way," Ma Ling said coldly.
She really regrets taking Vincent to the city center that day.
"Pace, I repeat, tomorrow, I don't want to encounter such a meaningless thing again,"
When he got home, Vincent was still sleeping, and Ma Ling crossed out another day on the calendar. A few days before the 20th, when did you arrive?

In Silicon Valley, Amanda insists on the vacuum cleaner in Huang Jingping's hand, but how can she take a safe vacuum cleaner like her?
Seeing that her mother refused to give her, she didn't say anything. She pulled the corner of her mother's clothes and pretended to be pitiful.
"You harsh little guy," Huang Jingping turned off the vacuum cleaner and scraped her daughter's nose. "Let's go and see how the lawn is trimmed outside?"
The main job at home these two days is to thoroughly clean up.
In order to welcome the arrival of both parents and Mei Jianzhong, she and Leticia were responsible for the hygiene of the family. If it weren't like Feng Yiping, she would not want strangers to enter the stadium, so she could only ask someone to maintain it.
At night, the indoor and outdoor acceptance passed, but it wasn't time to rest. She took out a long list of items that we had planned, "This is the list of supplies we need to purchase tomorrow, which is only available on Chinatown. I'm responsible for the others, Leticia, you can go a few more trips,"
…………
Google, Page convened a brief meeting and listened to reports from various project teams, mainly because Feng Yiping, part-time "chief experience officer", is coming to the United States soon.
Is he coming? Mayer rarely left a small walk in such a meeting. (To be continued.)
