Chapter 403: A Momentary Change of Mindset
Late at night, after the publicity department's welcome event, the staff cleaned up the venue and set up tables and a sumptuous food pick-up area.
The third prince and the others took the old cat to the second floor, picked a relatively quiet table and sat down, and immediately began to make a noise. Because many people found the third prince sitting here, they all came out to toast. But these people are all old fritters, some drink less, and some simply take a sip of wine, so they don't get drunk at all until the end, they are very sober.
Only the old cat was more miserable, and after tossing around, he drank at least nearly eight taels of white wine, with some red wine outside. So in the end, his state was basically like he was about to break, his eyes were blurred, and his head was buzzing.
Wu Di crossed Erlang's legs, looked at the old cat with a smile and said, "You don't need anyone to toast you, you have to drink, you have to learn to refuse." ”
The old cat waved his hand, shook his head and responded, "I...... I am different from you, and if others respect me, I have to respect him. ”
The third prince smiled after hearing this: "This is also a philosophy of life, which is very good." ”
Wu Di glanced at the old cat and didn't say anything more.
"Brother, after drinking, do you have any ideas?" The third prince leaned over to the old cat and asked softly.
"What, do you have arrangements for the night?" The old cat asked with a longing gaze bared its teeth.
"It's not a big deal, that's not what I'm talking about."
"What's that?"
"I mean, did you feel something while sitting here?" The third prince asked tactfully.
"I just feel tired." The old cat held his head and responded with heavy breathing.
The third prince interjected, and after a long silence, asked, "Do you guess Uncle Li is tired?" ”
When the old cat heard this, he was instantly stunned.
He went from the grassroots level, to the superintendent, to the captain, to the director, and finally to the position of the chief councilor of Gangnam District...... Do you calculate how many occasions he has had to go through and drink more wine than you? The third prince asked with a smile on his face.
The old cat was silent for a long time, and suddenly twisted his stiff neck and looked downstairs.
He saw that some middle-aged people were over forty and fifty, but they were still tired of walking in the middle of all kinds of people.
He saw that some people were already drunk and unconscious, sitting in a corner, with their heads bowed, in a daze.
He also saw those who sacrificed their lives to accompany the gentleman, and after drinking, went to the toilet in embarrassment and vomited.
Yes, these people are like Lao Li, as if everyone has his shadow.
The third prince stared at the old cat, and continued in a hoarse voice: "All your privileges and willfulness in the superintendent are spelled out by Uncle Li on this occasion...... But have you ever thought about it, who can help him? For you superintendents, Uncle Li may be the sky, a man of the moment who sits in the first position, but on this occasion, he may have to bend down to many people. ”
The old cat was silent.
"You can help Uncle Li." The third prince sighed and said.
"How can I help him? How can it help? The old cat asked with some confusion.
"If you do a good job in the superintendent, have a position, have the right to speak, and have your own circle to play, then maybe when you can help him." The third prince responded easily.
The old cat was silent.
"Do you think that I just relied on my family connections to eat in Songjiang?" The third prince suddenly asked.
The old cat may have drunk too much, or maybe he didn't think much about it at all, so he nodded directly at the third prince and asked, "Aren't you relying on your family?" ”
"Do you know who is sponsoring this event?" The third prince asked with a smile.
"Won't it be ......?" The old cat hesitated for a moment, and looked at everyone with a little surprise.
"Yes, it's a few of us who sponsor it." The third prince nodded, stretched out his hand and pointed to the group of people downstairs and said, "At least half of the people present today are not here for my father and the elders in the family, but for me and these friends around me. ”
The old cat was stunned.
"Let me tell you again, not only do I rarely ask my family to do things now, but even my dad has some problems to solve with me." The third prince intervened, his tone was flat, and his expression definitely didn't look like he was bragging,.
When the old cat heard this, he seemed to understand the meaning of the other party.
"Having said so much, I just want to tell you that it is not easy for Uncle Li to mix in the system." The third prince drank a cold drink and said softly: "His position is neither high nor low, not up or down, it is a very uncomfortable time, sometimes he has to compromise, and sometimes he has to choose a position...... Even if you are not careful, you may even be crushed. Isn't that Wu Wensheng a living example? ”
When the old cat heard this, he frowned and grabbed the wine bottle, lowered his head and poured himself another glass.
"It's useless to have more contact with the outside and always hold your own small circle." The third prince patted the old cat on the shoulder, and said briefly: "If you think a little more and work harder, then you can help Uncle Li a little more." ”
"Hmm." The old cat was indeed moved by the third son's words, because he rarely thought about how Lao Li mixed and managed his contacts outside, and only enjoyed the convenience that Lao Li brought him for free.
And today, after the old cat participated in this kind of party, he also had a personal experience. Indeed, there are at least a dozen people in this room who are about the same level as Lao Li, and the way they are running around for life is also infinitely sad.
"Okay, it's a bit too much today, let's drink." The third prince greeted.
"Drink!" The old cat nodded in agreement.
I don't know how long I drank, but the old cat was lying on the table and completely broken, and he was already snoring.
Wu Di ate the fruit, turned his head to look at the old cat and said, "Help him arrange arrangements at night?" ”
"No, there are two more days, don't worry." The third prince waved his hand and commanded softly: "Find two people, and send him a private room later." ”
"Hey, seriously, sometimes I'm anxious to hear you." Wu Di pursed his lips and replied a little impatiently: "You laid so much foreshadowing just now, why didn't you get to the point in the end?!" You tell him directly, the medicine line is very important to Lao Li, and if he can carry this stall by himself, it will really help Lao Li a lot. ”
"You don't understand, he's resistant to me." The third prince shook his head and responded: "We can't rush anything, we want to take him into the circle and play together in the future...... Then you have to make a heart-to-heart first. ”
"Hehe, you're about to become an immortal in one day." After Wu Di replied with a smile, he waved his hand and shouted, "You go and call the two service brothers to come over and send the old cat back." ”
……
Morning.
On the road into the city in Fengbei City, Qin Yu frowned and said to Fu Xiaohao: "Take the walkie-talkie and shout, and ask the people behind you if they have thrown off the military vehicle." ”
