Chapter 380: Not taking any money

"Friendship between people requires not only sincerity, but also gratitude and appropriate feedback. In fact, no one in the world should help anyone for granted. But the most common mistake people often make is to treat other people's help as As it should be.”

"Yes, true friends should be loyal. But what is loyalty? My understanding is that in addition to helping each other within our ability. More importantly, we should not cause trouble to our friends or let our friends suffer. We should be grateful Kindness and kindness towards friends. What comes and goes is the truth."

"For example, today, when we just met, you all expressed your willingness to help me, which showed me how much we are friends. But whose face are you doing it for? Huo Xin's face. This is because of the relationship between you. The affection is in place. On the other hand, we are still strangers. What face do I have? If we talk about it alone, it is normal for you not to help me. "

"Besides, the favor you are asking for is not a small one. In terms of value, my yard costs tens of thousands. Moreover, this is a matter of moving a cultural association, involving the placement of dozens of people. .Such a big thing must encounter a lot of resistance. I asked, and everyone scratched their heads. If you really help me get it done, in my opinion, it must be a big price. If I can't make the repayment I deserve. .Then who have I become?”

"To put it bluntly, isn't he just a shameless villain who wants to take advantage of Huo Xin's friendship with everyone? Isn't this kind of behavior a hooligan? If I am such a person, am I worthy of sitting with everyone? I Of course you can’t do that, I can only express my gratitude.”

It was through these remarks that Ning Weimin successfully improved his image a lot.

Because no one dislikes someone who understands equal exchange and repays kindness in return.

No one can look down upon such a person who understands the world and has self-respect.

In fact, it was not until this step that Ning Weimin let the young men across from him look at him.

Like Wu Shen, who was nodding his head involuntarily while listening.

After Ning Weimin finished speaking, Li Zhong gave him another cigarette.

After all, there are too many people around them who are interested in taking advantage and reaping benefits.

There are very few people like Ning Weimin who know the depth and depth of things and know how to advance and retreat.

But then again, speaking too beautifully can also cause rebellion.

Huo Xin finally couldn't help but speak.

"Oh, you are really too petty. You set up obstacles for yourself in something that is so simple in the first place."

"Can I tell you not to do this? No one, including me and my friends, wants to repay you."

"According to your theory, does being a friend have to be divided into different levels? You have to first see if the other person can bring you any actual benefits? You've just used the word 'friendship' as a philistine..."

This kind of accusation is really embarrassing.

But Ning Weimin was not embarrassed at all. Instead, he shook his head and refuted her again.

"Little comrade, if we don't say you are young, you have a child's mentality when looking at problems. You think of the world too simply and too idealistically. Birds of a feather flock together and people fall into groups. Isn't this true? Then why are we talking today? None of the people at this party are repairing water pipes, how about street sweepers?"

"There is also the issue of appropriate repayment. Of course, the person who helped can take the initiative to ask for it. But the person who receives the kindness cannot think about it. If you call this kind of thing a philistine, I will never approve it. Because no matter how solid it is, Friendship can't bear the feeling of giving without giving back. Once or twice is fine, but ten times or twenty times?"

"I can understand that in the eyes of many people, it would be awkward to ask friends for help and give material things in return. For example, eating a meal or giving something as a gift is like selling friendship at a low price and making friendship with friends look vulgar. But in In my opinion, this kind of thinking is absolutely unacceptable. Appropriate expression of gratitude is very necessary."

"Maybe I really don't know how to do more noble things. But through this method, I can at least clearly express my gratitude. Its role is not in the weight of the gift, but in the expression of my heart. The point is that I must do this Only by 'speaking' it out can others 'hear' it, and then they will know how much I care about this matter and how important it is to do this favor for me."

"I absolutely believe in the abilities of everyone here. Perhaps as someone said just now, the big trouble in my eyes is just a trivial step for everyone. But even so, I can't pretend to be stupid. Because for me, friends are the greatest Wealth, maintaining friendship requires sincerity to always remain happy. If you lose money, there is still a chance to get it back through cleverness. But when you lose friends, there is often no second chance..."

To be honest, no one has ever spoken of material rewards in such a fair and just way, and elevated them to such a high status.

It was like a big pot of hot and fragrant chicken soup being served on the table, which immediately made everyone present feel confused.

The direct result was that Huo Xin was so convinced by Ning Weimin that she kept silent.

Jiang Hui looked at Ning Weimin with an appreciative expression.

Li Zhong and Wu Shen were fooled into cheering for Ning Weimin's words.

"Be kind and generous, good! Oh, man, people like you are rare. What you say makes sense..."

"Hehe, I, Old Wu, love making friends like you! Just saying this to you, I treat you as a buddy..."

Even Jiang Hao couldn't fault Ning Weimin's words.

There is no way, Ning Weimin is definitely a master among masters.

Not only are his lines and acting skills passable, but he also knows how to enhance the atmosphere.

It's like a movie with background music, which greatly increases his personal charm.

So even though it was the first time for him to meet these people, it was just such a simple conversation of a few minutes.

It's hard for these people not to fall in love with Ning Weimin at first sight.

However, Jiang Hao is a vigilant person after all, and his family background and talents that are higher than his peers have also developed his proud personality.

The more outstanding Ning Waimin's speech and behavior were, the more his previous optimism was shattered, and he had the urge to compare or even confront him.

Therefore, his mood was very complicated, including jealousy and envy, as well as appreciation and empathy, and it was difficult to adjust to it for a while.

Even out of defensive behavior to protect his self-esteem, subconsciously, he was still racking his brains to find trouble.

Soon, his eyes lit up and he questioned Ning Weimin again.

"Brother, this is the first time I've seen such an eloquent person like you. Your eloquence is really good. But I don't understand. What's the purpose of your visit today? You don't want our help, but you also say you want to make friends. You want to say thank you. Huo Xin, I blame her for being inappropriate in selling favors for you. And do you want to resolve the matter about your house? Don’t you think that what you said is a bit contradictory? And what do you think is the appropriate return? What? Can you explain it clearly?"

After saying this, the atmosphere changed again.

As a result, those who had already had initial trust in Ning Weimin became confused again.

"No contradiction, not at all." Ning Weimin looked at Jiang Hao without fear.

"These are easy to explain. Huo Xin is indeed a very interesting person. In fact, it is a huge favor for her to introduce you to me and bring me to this party. Of course I have to thank her."

"But on the other hand, I'm afraid Huo Xin still doesn't know what kind of human price she has to pay for doing this favor for me. The key is that she doesn't understand, and her family members must understand. I'm just a commoner, and I don't want to pay for myself. Looking for trouble.”

"Of course I want to solve the house issue, but it can't be done overnight. Fortunately, my conditions comply with the policy, and I have the land and house deeds. In addition, I am quite patient and will continue to work hard to find a suitable house." Opportunity. I believe that no matter how troublesome this problem is, it will one day be solved."

"To be honest, I'm here just to make friends. You can think that I'm here to solve the house problem, or you can think that I'm here to solve other problems. I don't shy away from the fact that making friends has a certain utilitarian effect. Sexuality, but the key is compatibility, and certain values ​​must first be agreed upon.”

"As for what kind of reward is appropriate, and how I treat my friends. I think it's better to let actions speak for themselves. No matter how nice it sounds, it's not as good as what you actually do. As long as we all get along for a long time, you will understand without me saying anything. I mean it. And I can be the first to express some small sincerity."

"For example, if any of you need a Pierre Carton suit, you can definitely go to me in the future. I can make the decision and sell it to everyone at a 50% discount, and no foreign exchange coupons are needed. How about it? Is this discount reasonable?"

After seeing the same thing, Jiang Hui followed Ning Weimin and added a special sentence.

"The same applies to women. Although we currently focus on men's suits, we still have a lot of beautiful women's clothing."

As soon as this was said, everyone laughed again.

After all, Pierre Carton is already well-known, and being able to wear such clothes is a prestige, and no one will refuse such an affordable benefit.

Especially Jiang Hui, as a woman, it is natural to love beauty, and she is even more happy.

However, Jiang Hao was the only one who remained unmoved, and instead pressed him with a heart-wrenching question.

"Isn't that right? According to your logic, shouldn't we demand reciprocity? Since it's an exchange of equal value, why don't you set out conditions and give us benefits for free? On the other hand, it's not like we should be rewarded for nothing. Ah, wouldn’t that make me the shameless villain you said who took advantage in vain..."

Ning Weimin responded with a high hat.

"That's a strong statement. To be honest, even though I don't know everyone's identities yet, I am sure. Everyone here is more powerful than me. So we can't compare at all."

"Even if you accept this small offer of mine, you are confident. Because you don't have to doubt that you can make up for this favor at any time."

"It's the same on the other hand, what I'm good at is in other places. For example, the discount on this clothing. It's just a small amount of sincerity to me, not a favor, just like the relationship in your hands. I ask for help, If we only repay this, wouldn’t it make people laugh?”

As he spoke, Ning Weimin changed the topic and made another shocking statement.

"Let me tell you something real. Let's see if we can deepen our friendship. Now I need to get to know people in the bank and exchange old banknotes for new ones. If anyone has any connections in this regard, can you help? This is my little favor. I can give everyone a Pierre Carton suit for free, without taking any money..."
