Chapter 715 - 715 One Can Imagine

715 One Can Imagine

“That’s right. At that time, the rules could kill people, especially in Tianjing. Good lord, that’s really not a place for humans to stay. We have to pay their respects to their elders. Who can withstand this?”

“That’s right. Look at the current times. There aren’t so many rules. I remember that when I was young, there was the Elder Brothers Society. They have too many code words.”

“Hey, I know this. When I was young, I learned a lot of these things from my grandfather. It’s said that a golden basin holds the same volume of water as a silver basin, so you should forgive others[1]. They also say that the members of the Elder Brother Society are forthright. Hehe.”

“Heh, if you want to talk about this, I understand. At that time, my father was a businessman and did some small businesses. At that time, they were all using these trending phrases. I happened to learn a little. At that time, they said that money was not called money. It was called ‘Chinese Broccoli’. The place where they did business was called ‘Eye Land’. When they sold goods, it was called ‘Reverse Threshold’. When they made money, it was called ‘High Fire’. Those who used tricks to sell goods were called ‘Reverse Slotting’. Those who didn’t use tricks to sell goods normally were called ‘Flat Pus.h.i.+ng’. Also, ‘Reverse Encounter’ meant that customers returned their goods.”

“I know about this too. ‘Hanging wealth” refers to women. In that time and age, some people called women ‘hanging wealth’. They said things such as, ‘That person has hanging wealth.’ They also said, ‘That hanging wealth looks good.’ When they say that it’s sharp, it means that the woman is good-looking, or that the quality of the goods was very good. Thus, they would say that the hanging wealth was sharp. There are too many of them.”

“There’s also ‘spitting a sharp ridge’, which is used to praise others. If one ‘spits a logical ridge’, they’re belittling others. If they say ‘descend a black ridge’, it means that they’re threatening and intimidating others. At that time, I heard from my grandfather that many people had been made to descend a black ridge. At that time, I didn’t know what it meant. If one has a ‘dazzling mouth’, it means that they’re lying. ‘Ground connection’ means completing a transaction, while ‘flying ground’ means running away. ‘Golden gate’ refers to G.o.d and Buddha. ‘Opening a shed’ means that a transaction has begun, while ‘landing a shed’ means that the transaction had been interrupted by accident. There are too many of them. I almost couldn’t remember them. When I mentioned them today, I remembered them.”

“Aiya, all the CEOs know a lot. Although I still heard some of these trending phrases back then, I didn’t grow up and forgot about it long ago.”

“I just don’t know why they use such secret language and trending phrases to speak. After so many years, I still don’t understand what they mean.”

“Sigh, it’s just for convenience. It’s like a local dialect. Over time, it became like this. In that era, the level of education was low and they couldn’t recognize a few words. They didn’t know how to say a lot of things. They just said it casually. Then, trending phrases slowly formed. However, this kind of thing is still quite difficult for outsiders to understand. It’s also a way to differentiate between experts and outsiders.”

“Yes, that’s true. Some people only speak in a secret language. Those who aren’t experts won’t understand at all, so they won’t do business with you. They’ll know that you’re an outsider.”

The CEOs smiled at this point. Then, they picked up their teacups and took a sip. They also took a puff of their cigars.

However, as soon as he put down the teacup, the CEO sitting at the head of the table looked at the phone on the table. When he saw the name “CEO Zheng Jianghao”. he immediately raised his eyebrows and sat up straight to look at the phone.

Then, his expression grew tense and he spoke nervously.

“They’re here!”

All the CEOs were a little stunned when they heard this. They looked at this CEO strangely and asked.

“Who’s here? What’s wrong, Old Zhao? What did you see?”

“What’s going on? Old Zhao, you’re making me a little nervous.”

“I’m doing legal business. What do you mean? Old Zhao, make yourself clear.”

Businessmen were still afraid of such things. They were afraid that something would happen to their business. Then, while they were drinking tea, a few Embroidered Uniform Guards in robes with flying fish patterns would come over and put handcuffs on them.

Capitalists like them were more or less not that clean. They were so glamorous, but their shadows were a little slanted, so they were still a little afraid of these things.

Most importantly, CEO Zhao looked nervous. He didn’t say much and only said, “They’re here!”

How could this not make them panic?

If they hadn’t done anything wrong, it wouldn’t have been a big deal. They would just be worried that there would be some financial problems in the company or something. If they had done something wrong, such as tax evasion, made use of legal loopholes to operate gray businesses, or even bent the rules, when he heard this, they would stand up and almost run away.

“Who’s coming, Old Zhao? Tell me quickly!”

Everyone was still asking when CEO Zhao’s nervous expression immediately turned into excitement. Then, he immediately stood up and spoke.

“Have you forgotten? What we discussed previously really happened! Chairman Ye, the chairman of Dinglong Corporation, is really here!”

“What!!”

All the CEOs were instantly shocked. They had originally contacted Zheng Jianghao with the mentality of taking a gamble, but they did not expect him to really invite Chairman Ye.

They quickly stood up and walked out of the private room. They went downstairs and stood guard outside the teahouse.

All of them looked nervous and focused on the road ahead, waiting respectfully for Chairman Ye to arrive.

There were many people drinking tea in the hall of Cha Wan. Moreover, the walls were all made of panoramic floor-to-ceiling gla.s.s, so everyone saw at a glance that so many CEOs in suits were standing at the door, as if they were waiting for someone. This attracted everyone’s curiosity and they discussed.

“Hey, what are these people doing? Are they waiting for someone?”

“Wow, these people are not simple. These people are all famous figures and big bosses. I didn’t expect to meet them here. What a coincidence.”

“That’s strange. I know these CEOs too. With their ident.i.ties, they’re actually standing at the door waiting for someone. Who is this person? How can he make so many CEOs wait here?”

“Do you all know them? Who are these CEOs? Why haven’t I seen them before? They don’t look anything special.”

“Hehe, young man, if you have nothing to do, you should go out and see the world. Don’t stay at home every day. Look at that slightly fat boss. You don’t have to know his name. You just need to know that his surname is Liu. This person’s company is the one that produced our own mobile phone chip, Bai Ze, so that China is no longer monopolized by the Westerners. Moreover, he has also produced a computer processor that is ahead of the entire world’s ten-nanometer processor. It’s called the Zouwu Processor. You know the zouwu[2], right? It’s a divine beast from the Cla.s.sic of Mountains and Seas. It runs fast, which means that this processor has strong computing power. The truth is indeed so. He’s known as the father of the processor and is a person with a market value of more than 200 billion yuan. You can imagine why such a person is standing here.”
