So this time, the program team decided to cut funding. "

"!"

When he heard that the program team was actually going to cut funding, Li Yichen instantly became energetic.

"What, cutting funding?!...No way!"

At this time, Li Yichen didn't care about why it was Grandfathers Over Flowers, and immediately retorted: "Last time, it was because we were frugal throughout the whole journey. We had one meal but no one, and we didn't have enough to eat or sleep well. This is just a little bit I saved a little money...and it was all spent in the end, not a penny was left!”

The four grandfathers had just arrived and didn't know what the last trip was like, so they all remained silent and just watched Li Yichen argue with the program team quietly.

Hong Lingjing was a little nervous at first, but upon seeing this, she gradually became bolder.

She ignored Li Yichen's rebuttal, turned to the four grandfathers and said, "Teachers, please first hear how much our trip expenses are, okay?"

"What do you think."

Jiang Cheng said with a smile, a little light shining in his little eyes, as warm as the winter sunshine.

Hong Lingjing became more courageous and tried: "400 yuan per person per day..."

"what!"

Li Yichen thought he was hearing hallucinations, but the program team actually dared to cut the funding in half.

He stood up and took the lead in resisting: "Teachers, let's go! We will have to sleep on the street for this little money!"

The four grandfathers did not remain silent this time. They all stood up. Li Yichen was obviously standing aside. Teacher Zhang Jiaming even patted the armrest of the seat heavily.

"Wait a moment……"

Hong Lingjing was so frightened that she jumped up from her seat in a panic, blocking Li Yichen and the others' way.

"Teachers...everyone...please listen to my explanation!"

Chapter 284 Conscience

The situation suddenly deteriorated to this extent, and Hong Lingjing's heart was filled with regret. If she had known what would happen, she would not have been blinded by Teacher Jiang Cheng's smile.

What to do now?

She was the director of "Grandpas Over Flowers" and she knew Wang Gaoming would not help her unless absolutely necessary.

So Hong Lingjing didn't ask for help from Wang Gaoming, her little head was racing at high speed, she mustered up her courage, and said nonsense: "Teachers must look at the matter of travel expenses dialectically, just like eating. Sometimes eating less will be harmful to us. It’s good for your health…”

Hong Lingjing lacked confidence, especially when she saw the four teachers laughing. She also knew that her metaphor was too nonsense. As she spoke, her voice became smaller and smaller, and finally she gave in and said: "Teachers, let's do this... ...Only 200 yuan less per day...800 yuan and 600 yuan, really only a little difference..."

After saying that, Hong Lingjing showed a flattering smile on her face and anxiously waited for the reactions of the four teachers.

The four teachers did not rush to express their opinions, but subconsciously looked at Li Yichen.

"teacher!"

Li Yichen knew that he had no deterrent effect, so he took two steps back, stood behind the four teachers, and threatened Hong Lingjing: "Don't teachers need to go shopping, have a drink or something? I think you just want the teachers to They're hungry! It's so bad!"

After threatening the program team, Li Yichen immediately sought the support of the four teachers in a desperate manner, explaining: "Teachers, if you lose 200 a day, you will lose 2000 in ten days, and if you are five people, you will lose 10000. The difference is not a small difference! "

"Yeah, we also want to go shopping, drink and stuff."

Zhou Shixian immediately expressed his support for Li Yichen.

"It's still the same as before, as much as it should be!" Shen Tongquan looked serious.

Jiang Cheng stared at Hong Lingjing intently, but the smile on his face disappeared and his expression looked scary.

The atmosphere was tense, and Zhang Jiaming suddenly felt that this quarrel was very interesting, and laughed "haha".

This laughter was like a ray of light in the darkness, shining on the helpless Hong Lingjing. She felt that she saw hope and found a breakthrough, so she aimed at Teacher Zhang Jiaming and asked for help: "Teacher, you are the captain... You must understand our painstaking efforts..."

Zhang Jiaming is 75 years old this year. He has not managed money for almost 50 years and has no concept of money. He couldn't see Hong Lingjing's pitiful appearance and gradually softened his heart. He felt that the program team originally wanted to lose [-] a day, but now only lost [-] after negotiation. After paying two hundred, he really gave in a lot, so he smiled and opened his mouth to be a peacemaker.

Jiang Cheng and Zhang Jiaming have known each other for decades. Just by looking at Zhang Jiaming's expression, he could roughly tell what he was thinking. He guessed that Zhang Jiaming would be inclined to accept the program team's proposal if he opened his mouth, so he preemptively stopped him and said, "If you agree, Then go on your own! Go on your own and with the program team!"

"..."

Zhang Jiaming touched his head awkwardly and sat back.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Hong Lingjing quickly said coquettishly to Teacher Zhang Jiaming: "Teacher... do you think six hundred and five is okay?"

"No."

"no!"

"No."

"Absolutely not!"

Before Zhang Jiaming could speak, Li Yichen and the four of them were afraid that Teacher Zhang Jiaming would be soft-hearted, so they spoke out against it at the same time.

"If you say that again, we will really quit!"

Shen Tongquan stared at Hong Lingjing and gave him an ultimatum.

"Yeah, why do you have to say these words that hurt each other's feelings as soon as you meet? Let's live a beautiful life together."

Jiang Cheng cooperated tacitly with Shen Tongquan and sang a white face.

"That's right."

Zhou Shixian echoed.

"Yes, sorry..."

Under pressure, Hong Ling sighed quietly and bowed her head in resignation.

The funding cuts came to an end with Hong Lingjing's formal apology.

Hong Lingjing suffered a setback and did not hide the disappointment on her face. She said sorry in a low voice and apologized to her colleagues on the program team.

Seeing that Hong Lingjing was pitiful, Zhang Jiaming looked at her sympathetically and hesitated several times.

Wang Gaoming, who was standing behind the camera, noticed this scene keenly, staring at Teacher Zhang Jiaming like a shark smelling the fishy smell.

He agreed with Hong Lingjing's approach just now. When Teacher Jiang Cheng, Teacher Shen Tongquan and Teacher Zhou Shixian all expressed clear opposition, Teacher Zhang Jiaming's unexpectedly warm attitude was indeed the only breakthrough.

However, Hong Lingjing did one thing wrong, that is, she did not see the overall situation clearly and should not try to win the support of Teacher Zhang Jiaming when everyone was present.

What is the situation at this scene now?

It was like a docile sheep being protected by three grinning shepherd dogs, and beside the shepherd dogs, there was a meerkat standing sentry to warn at any time that the wolf could not succeed.

Therefore, if the program team wants to successfully reduce the travel expenses of "Grandpas Over Flowers", they must create opportunities for the little sheep to be alone.

"It can only be this way……"

Wang Gaoming thought, and a bold plan gradually emerged in his mind, and he silently began to prepare.

……

After the four grandfathers sat down again, Hong Lingjing adjusted her mentality and reluctantly began to introduce the travel rules.

"Teachers...this is the address of the hotel where you will stay for the first night..."

Hong Lingjing took out a card and handed it to Teacher Zhang Jiaming. Teacher Zhang Jiaming glanced at it and read it slowly.

“Shiseido 9 Rue d'Aguesseau 75008”

"The teacher knows French."

Li Yichen said happily, it seems that this time he does not need to ask Moments to translate.

"A little bit, just take it."

Zhang Jiaming handed the card with the address printed on it to Li Yichen.

After a few more minutes, Hong Lingjing finished explaining the rules. Li Yichen took a break, stood up and whispered.

"Teacher, I'm going to the bathroom."

"Oh, go."

Li Yichen's departure finally gave Wang Gaoming the opportunity.

The meerkats standing guard are gone. Now he only needs to lure the sheep away, and his plan will be half successful. Then he can hand over the reduced funds to Teacher Zhang Jiaming, and he can make raw rice and cooked meals.

At this time, Shen Tongquan wanted to drink coffee. Wang Gaoming immediately suggested to teacher Zhang Jiaming: "In this case, as the captain, teacher, please invite everyone to drink coffee."

"What did you say? I'll buy it?"

Zhang Jiaming was surprised and said that he was not angry, but he had never even entered the kitchen at home, and he had not bought food outside for decades, so he didn't know how to order now.

"I'll give you money."

Zhang Jiaming took out his wallet, without counting, and casually took out five or six red tickets and handed them to Wang Gaoming: "I beg you, you can use the money to buy them."

"Ah this..."

The unexpected situation made Wang Gaoming a little panicked. He immediately changed his strategy, approached Teacher Zhang Jiaming, pulled his sleeve, and whispered: "It's not...cough...Teacher, actually I have something to say to the teacher." .”

"what you want to say?"

Zhang Jiaming had no doubts and meekly got up and left with Wang Gaoming.

The cunning plan succeeded. Wang Gaoming snickered and firmly supported Teacher Zhang Jiaming to the place where the coffee was sold.

"Teacher, this is it..."

Zhang Jiaming looked up at the densely packed menus on the wall and felt a little headache. He didn't know what to order, so he mentioned the Americano coffee he often drank: "Let's order the same thing..."

After paying, the clerk politely guided Mr. Zhang Jiaming to the waiting area: "Please wait a moment, you can just wait here."

"Oh."

While waiting, Wang Gaoming whispered: "Teacher, I don't want to say anything, I just want to explain to you the ideas of our program team... Look..."

"Um……"

Zhang Jiaming didn't pay attention to what Wang Gaoming was saying, but looked around curiously and said with a smile: "How could we have such service before..."

"Yeah yeah……"

Wang Gaoming echoed and continued to explain the program team's ideas. The four sensitive words "cutting funds" were not mentioned throughout the process, but the four words "upgrading difficulty" were used instead.

"...Teacher, although the difficulty has been upgraded a bit and the process may be a little harder, the whole journey will become more meaningful... You see, there are so many beautiful scenery along the way from Paris to Zurich. If you hadn't walked Even if we go among the masses, we won’t feel the rich cultural atmosphere, right?”

"Um……"
