Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 410 Dong Zong's Marriage
Katsuo originally had his back to me, but now he turned around and said to his face: "I forgot to tell you one thing, you have a quality that other people don't have, you are kind and upright, this will Make you go farther, higher, and take a different path from others. Power is a double-edged sword. If you use it badly, it will hurt yourself and others. If you use it well, it can kill demons and ghosts. Cut down the rebellious officials and thieves, plead for orders for the people, and eliminate harm for the people."

I stared blankly at Katsuo and said: "Oh my God, baby, I underestimate you, you are simply a philosopher, a thinker, this is not in line with your personality, this is not what you should have Wisdom, you repeat!"

Katsuo said with a smile: "Baby, go to bed early, you are the man I admire the most, you are the most handsome and smartest man in the world, I love you!"

I smiled and said: "No, I think you are too smart, I am not good enough for you, how about it, I heard that you have been pregnant for three years, so you should get pregnant first, so that we can be a good match!" After finishing speaking , I started to work up and down.

Katsuo was amused by me and giggled, but he was always on guard, which made me so tired that I finally started snoring.

The next day, I was going to find Mr. Dong, but Mr. Dong came to my office to look for me. Mr. Dong asked me, "Is there a classmate of yours in Hualian?"

I nodded and replied: "Yes, my classmate from the business school is named Qiao Rui, so he is a senior executive of Hualian, right? I haven't contacted for a long time. I don't know what position I have now. How can I find something with her?"

Mr. Dong hummed and said: "Zhongjing has acquired Hualian. I want to know some inside information, how they operate, and who is in contact with them? I don't know if your classmate is high enough and how much you can know. ?”

I picked up the phone, found Qiao Rui's number, dialed it, and the call got through, but no one answered it.

I hung up the phone, shook my head and said, "I got through and no one answered, just call her back and I'll just ask."

President Dong nodded and asked, "Have people from Zhongjing contacted you?"

I nodded and said, "Someone has come to persuade you to surrender, and the weight is still very large, but don't let me get mad."

Dong Zong let out a sigh, thought about it and still didn’t ask, and talked to me about other questions: “Tongling has officially stopped supplying goods. Will renew the contract with us, but fortunately we have electricians and a branch in Hunan. It seems that you still have a long-term vision, without your ideas at the time, now we are really in a dilemma."

I smiled and said: "I am a blind cat and a dead mouse. It happened to me. The problem is still to come. I guess it will stop us in an all-round way. It may be after the first negotiation. We have to be prepared. .”

Dong Zong looked at me with a smile and asked: "You seem to be very determined? Don't you plan to negotiate a peace? Formally merged into a central enterprise, we don't have to worry about it. You can get a lot of money, isn't it good?"

I stared at President Dong and said, "Are you testing me?"

Mr. Dong hurriedly said: "What temptation? I really thought about it. I have been very tired in the past few years. Fortunately, I have you to help me. Sometimes I think about it, and I have made money. Why do I work hard?" What? What is it for?"

I tentatively asked: "Mr. Dong, there is a question that I have never dared to ask."

Dong Zong said with a smile: "I loved it!" After speaking, he laughed.

It made me blush, it's rare to see Dong Zong's cute side.Dong Zong continued: "Isn't it okay, I'm kidding a young man?"

I said with a red smile: "I remember that I saw a young man dancing with you at a dance held by Wanzhong Electrician. Who are you? Our group keeps silent about your family affairs, and no one knows , I’m just curious and want to ask, if you don’t want to answer, forget it.”

Dong Zong smiled and said: "You are so courageous, don't you know that this is my taboo?"

I hurriedly said: "Then pretend I didn't ask!"

Mr. Dong shook his head and said: "Actually, it's not a secret. That's my son. He's studying abroad now. I'm divorced. I've been divorced a long time ago. My ex-husband is a long-distance truck driver. He's very nice, honest and pragmatic. We We have been married for many years, we can’t say we are in love, but we have a very good relationship. Respecting each other as guests is the best way to describe the two of us. My career has been on the rise, and he is taking care of my family. There is less quarreling and less chatting, and the two of them are more like living together.

When my son was in elementary school, one day when I came back from a business trip, he suddenly filed for divorce without any warning. When I asked him why, he just said that he felt bored and wanted to change his life. "

I asked curiously: "What kind of life should I change to? How to change my wife's life?"

Dong Zong recalled: "Don't mention divorce, it must be a third party involved. Many marriages break up, not because there is no love, no passion, but because the existence of marriage is meaningless, at least for the time. For the two of us, it is like this. We are still friends now, he has found a wife, is a teacher of the people, loves him very much, and we are very happy."

I concluded by saying: "A dull marriage is not as wonderful as each of them. The ashes of silence are far more terrifying than fierce quarrels!"

Dong Zong was a little surprised, looked at me and asked: "You have never been married, how do you know? Could it be that you have a problem with Sheng Nan?"

I smiled and said: "No, not at all. Katsuo and I have already arrived, and we won't feel any discomfort if we don't say a word together. We get along very comfortably, and occasionally we quarrel, and occasionally we have disputes , but our conflicts never last overnight."

President Dong hummed and said, "That's what a marriage should look like."

I smiled and asked, "Then President Dong, why don't you find another one?"

Mr. Dong sighed and said: "It's not that I don't want to look for it. When I was young, my child was still young, so I didn't dare to look for it because I was afraid that it would affect the child. But at my age, it is very difficult to look for it. It is more difficult to look for it than myself." If you are capable, if others don’t do it, if you have money and power, why don’t you find a young and beautiful one. Find someone who is not as good as yourself, and you don’t like it. Now I don’t even have any ideas.”

Only at this moment did I feel that Mr. Dong really looked like a woman.

Dong Zong went on to say: "In fact, men and women are unequal in this society. A 20-year-old girl is young and beautiful. She always wants to look again. Wait for a better one. The first wait is ten years. It's 30 years old. Not small, a bit pretty, a bit of social experience, just let it go, not reconciled, don’t let it go, and feel sorry for yourself, just wait, wait for another ten years, 40 years old, don’t want to wait any longer Yes, but even if you are still pretty, how many people really want you? Your experience will tell you that all those who pursue you have a purpose, and you have seen through these stinky men. Besides, you The best years of your senior life were not given to others, so why should they want you? Woman, life is hard!
As for men, no matter how old they are, there are women who are suitable for them. At the age of 20, you can find a childhood sweetheart, at the age of 30, you can find a good family, and at the age of 40, you can find a woman who is obedient. Do you think it is easier for you men? "

I retorted: "A 20-year-old boy, if you want money but no money, no power, who will follow you? You have to fight on your own? It's a pity that you are ignorant and can't find your way. How many people can struggle to make a difference? , Most of them are not mediocre. At the age of 30, the golden rising period, the career begins to improve, but how can there be time and energy to spend on relationships? Those who are really ambitious, or get married hastily, after marriage Get used to it again, or just focus on your career. Once you struggle, you will be 40 years old. You are greasy in middle age, and your beer belly has come out. You have a little money and a little power, but you are pretty, young and beautiful. I think you are old Point, if you are a little older, you can see through you at a glance, and marriage is no fun at all. What should I do? Let it go, just be a woman! Man, life is hard!"

Mr. Dong and I looked at each other with a smile, and said, "Suddenly, we feel like old friends. This is the first time we two have chatted like this!"

I nodded and said, "Yeah, it's great to chat like this. I'm not really afraid of you, but I just feel that you don't look like a person!"

Dong Zong said angrily: "How do you talk?"

I waved my hands and said, "You are like a god. You don't eat fireworks in the world. Of course you are not like a fairy. I feel that in your world, there is only work, and nothing but work is work. There is no smell of fireworks. I admire you quite a lot. I feel that I know everything and can do anything. I think I am the second child in the world, and no one can be the boss. After working with you, I feel more and more that I am not comprehensive enough to think about problems, and I am not comprehensive enough to solve problems. There are many things in you Something worth learning, but I can't learn it."

Dong Zong smiled and said, "You are already so good at flattering? It's very comfortable to shoot me a lot."

I smiled and asked, "Do you know why?"

President Dong shook his head.

I smiled and said: "When we were young, when we were in school, did the teacher's praise have more gold content than the classmates' praise, and made you happier? This is a truth!"

Dong Zong poohed and said: "You are really shameless, boasting yourself in a different way!"

At this time, my phone rang. I saw it was Qiao Rui, picked up the phone and motioned to Mr. Dong, who nodded.

I picked up the phone and smiled and said, "Old classmate, are you so busy? Don't you have time to answer the phone?"

Qiao Rui still said with a cold attitude: "It's not that you don't know, what time is it now? Answering your call is very sensitive. You must find a place where there is no one."

I snorted, and then went straight to the point: "I won't go around in circles with you anymore, I just want to ask you about the process of Zhongjing's acquisition of you. After the acquisition, has there been any change in your company? If it is convenient, just tell me something, if it is inconvenient, forget it , I won't make things difficult for you either."
