Chapter 28 Leisure
Modern Guangzhou!
In the early morning, Li Zhe stretched comfortably in bed and let out a long sigh that he hadn't had for a very long time. It seemed like it had been a long time since he'd slept in!
The days in the Three Kingdoms are really hard to get through, every day is very tense. Because of this period of time spent there, civil administration, training, and trivial matters all come to Li Zhe for handling, as if not doing so would show a lack of loyalty to Lord Li Zhe. Su and Han, those two guys, are now becoming more and more like old bureaucrats.
Furthermore, with the incident of the imperial edict hanging over his head, Li Zhe was busy and restless, never having a good night's sleep.
In those three countries, there is no chance to sleep in, you can't even delay getting up.
In ancient times, people's biological clocks and the sun were closely linked. Farmers would get up with the crowing of chickens and rest with the setting of the sun, having a strict schedule. As a master, if everyone else is already up and you are still sleeping in, it will definitely make people think of past incompetent rulers.
In short, the moral concept of rural people is simple but also very stubborn. In China's traditional governance structure, as a leader of a group, on the one hand, ability is naturally strong, helping everyone to work hard and become rich and live a good life, while on the other hand, more importantly, it is necessary to be a moral model for all people.
Since the time of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, China's rulers have been the highest moral exemplars in society. Representing the most authoritative order in Chinese society, this order is not decreed by heaven but formed by people themselves, which can be summarized as fair and reasonable. As the emperor represents the authoritative order of the Three Cardinal Guides and the Five Constant Virtues, his personal virtues must also be flawless; if the ruler's personal virtues are despised, his ruling position will often be precarious.
This is also the reason why rebels and dissidents of different dynasties have always used their opponents' private moral issues as an excuse in their struggles, desperately pouring dirty water on each other. Because Chinese common people eat this, China has been a moral society since ancient times. Even now, there hasn't been much change.
The current Sanli Pu is still in the initial stage of power development, and Li Zhe's authority has not yet reached the point where he can cover the sky with one hand. Therefore, he can only reluctantly follow the various traditional virtues of the Three Kingdoms period. At least this lazy guy can't sleep. Let the refugees see it, it will affect their mood, haha!
Got up, brushed teeth, washed face, turned on computer, casually browsed major websites, then got up and went out to have breakfast feeling refreshed.
Being in Guangzhou, I am always drawn to the pursuit of good food by the Cantonese people. The Cantonese people who love food attach great importance to breakfast and often gather with family and friends at a place, ordering a big table of dishes and eating until almost noon, which is truly a leisurely and elegant atmosphere.
But now Li Zhe, who was surrounded by Guangdong people, didn't have such good fortune. He simply grabbed a quick breakfast on the street and headed to Chen Qian's trading company, just like he used to when he worked there before.
Arrived at the trading company, and ran into Chen Qian head-on.
"Oh no! Boss! Why have you come today!" Chen Qian's words were full of all kinds of complaints.
Wow! My own company, when can't I come? Li Zhe was puzzled instead.
"What? Not welcome? Then I'll come back another time." Li Zhe stood up and turned around, making a gesture to leave.
Qian Chen was shocked and didn't have time to speak, she directly pounced on him, grabbed Li Zhe's arm and twisted it back and forth.
"Boss! You, you, you, isn't this bullying?"
What he said is really inexplicable, Li Zhe is indeed incomprehensible.
Chen Qian was so anxious that her eyes darted back and forth, it took her a long time to make up her mind.
"Wait! Don't go!"
She said that! She stamped her foot, turned around and rushed into the bathroom! After a long time, she finally came out from inside, with a face already made up with light powder and rouge, looking lovely and charming.
Li Zhe finally came to his senses, realizing that he had never put on makeup before and couldn't bear to be seen by others. What's the big deal? Making such a fuss over nothing. He tilted his head to look at Chen Qian and commented, "Hmm! Not bad, really good-looking!" After saying that, he lowered his head and walked towards the manager's office.
No sincerity at all! The pathetic Chen Qian could only follow behind with a heart full of sorrow and gritted teeth.
Entering the manager's office, Chen Qian pulled a long face and reported on her recent work to Li Zhe in a purely businesslike manner. During this period, Li Zhe had not come over, but Chen Qian had not fallen behind in her studies either. She seized the market opportunity and made several more deals, amazingly turning the company's losses into profits. This was nothing short of a miracle for this foreign trade company that had been losing money for nearly half a year.
With such good results, Chen Qian was naturally proud and just waiting for Li Zhe to arrive, so she could show off in front of the boss. But who knew that she would encounter such an unpleasant situation. Others... others just wanted to be polite to her?
As a lady, she should always present her perfect image to others, which is the basic courtesy that a modern beauty should have. Moreover, facing her own boss, who hasn't been seen for a long time, and yet he appears at the most embarrassing moment, without giving her any reaction time, it's really awkward for the beauty! And seeing the beauty, not even a sincere compliment, this rich second-generation boy is really too annoying!
Qian's small eyes had already turned seventeen or eighteen times in an instant, and she almost wanted to use Zhe Li as a voodoo doll!
Li Zhe was calm and composed, sitting on the sofa quietly listening to Chen Qian's report. Then he nodded slightly in agreement.
"Ah, not bad, you've all done a great job! It seems like everyone has been working hard. I think for this month, we'll pay out all the salaries as usual, and the extra profits the company made will be distributed to each of you as bonuses. You've all been busy for so long, and as your boss, I shouldn't be too ungrateful. Let's give you a holiday and go have some fun!"
Wow! Chen Qian immediately became excited, the dissatisfaction in her eyes instantly flew away, and she was so excited that she wanted to jump up. With a quick movement, she directly rubbed against Li Zhe's face and ran out of the room.
Long live the boss! Excited shouts rose from outside the office, one after another.
Li Zhe touched his own face, and a faint smile appeared on it.
……
"Yun Kai! How did I end up with those goods last time?!"
"Alright! It's all set, I'll be able to get the goods in two days. At that time, I'll give the boss of Longdong Shooting Range a call and take you there to have some fun! This stuff is absolutely authentic American goods, it definitely won't disappoint you!"
"Haha! That's great! Yun Kai, you're getting more and more reliable with handling things now!"
"Boss! You're overpraising me, with our current relationship, do you still need to say such things?"
"Okay! I won't say anything more, after a few days when I come back, I'll give you another call!"
"Okay, goodbye boss!"
"...". PS: Wish you a happy weekend!
