After the Divorce, I Inherited the Property In the Game Chapter 488

Chapter 488 516, hard work can only determine the lower limit (asking for monthly votes)

“Grandpa, I wish you blessings like the East Sea and longevity as long as the Southern Mountains.”

A tall and thin young man held a gift box in both hands and handed it to Kang Jingchun.

 He is the son of Kang Zhifei and the grandson of Kang Jingchun, named Kang Xiaowei.

Seeing that his grandson brought a birthday gift, Kang Jingchun suddenly smiled. Although he has six children, he only has two sons, and currently he only has a grandson like Kang Xiaowei.

 So Kang Xiaowei's status in the old man's heart is still very high. There is no way, the older generation's preference for boys over girls is deeply ingrained.

Just after Mr. Kang accepted the gift from his grandson, a pretty girl also gave him the gift he had prepared. She was Kang Zhichao's daughter, Kang Xiaoxiao. She had just graduated from high school this year and was going to Shanghai to study at university in September.

In Kang Jingchun's mind, Kang Xiaowei and Kang Xiaoxiao's priority was naturally higher than that of his grandchildren, such as Li Manni, Zhao Xiaofeng and Niu Lulu.

Although these grandsons and granddaughters can be considered members of the big Kang family, they are not named Kang after all!

In fact, Kang Jingchun hopes that his grandson Kang Xiaowei or his granddaughter Kang Xiaoxiao will be more promising. However, one of them has just started working in his father's company, and the other has only entered college in September, and is not yet ready to start a career.

After Kang Xiaowei and Kang Xiaoxiao gave their grandfather gifts, they both came over to say hello to Yang Hao.

Both of them continued to call Yang Hao "brother-in-law" as before.

Yang Hao did not correct this. It was not the first time for him to meet the two of them. He had met Li Manshu several times before before they were divorced. Since both of them were younger than Li Manshu, it was normal for them to call him brother-in-law.

Moreover, although the seniority is the same, Yang Hao is actually much older than the two of them.

“Brother-in-law, I saw the video of you beating the kidnapper. It was so awesome!”

 “Are you really good at kung fu?”

 Kang Xiaowei is currently studying in his father's company. He usually watches short videos and other things when he has nothing to do. Naturally, he has been paying attention to Yang Hao's affairs for a long time. He was quite excited to see Yang Hao today. After saying hello, he started gossiping.

 “Well, I know a little bit about it.”

Yang Hao replied casually.

“Brother-in-law, can you teach me something?”

 “Want to learn!”

Kang Xiaowei asked again with an expectant look on his face.

 “Xiaowei, don't make trouble with your physical condition!”

At this time, Zhao Xiaofeng came over. Kang Xiaowei often played behind him when he was a child, so the two had a good relationship.

“Brother Xiaofeng, look at what you said, don't look at me thin, my bones are full of meat!”

When Kang Xiaowei replied, he deliberately rolled up the cuffs of his T-shirt and showed off his biceps.

It's just that Kang Xiaowei is indeed too thin, and his arms are thin enough. It's better to have a loose T-shirt to cover it up. Now he completely exposed his "thin dog" nature, and Kang Xiaoxiao who was watching on the side couldn't help but giggle. .

“Brother, I think it's better for you to go to the gym and build muscle first.” Kang Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

Kang Xiaowei was shocked and curled his lips in depression, but he still looked at Yang Hao without giving up and asked: "Brother-in-law, am I really not good enough with this condition?"

"It's not impossible. Let's do this. If you have a chance, go to Shanghai and fight with my apprentice first. If you can beat her, I will teach you."

Yang Hao did not refuse directly, but set a threshold.

 In fact, this is no different from rejection. With Kang Xiaowei's physical condition, if he fights Ma Tianjiao, he will only get a beating.

“Brother-in-law, do you still have apprentices?” Kang Xiaowei asked curiously.

 “Well, and there's more than one.”

Yang Hao nodded: "There are male and female apprentices. My request to you is very simple, as long as you can defeat my female apprentice."

 “Fight with a woman?”

Kang Xiaowei curled his lips with some disdain.

 “This is just a simple introductory test.”

Yang Hao was casual and did not explain much.

At this time, there was another commotion in the banquet hall. It seemed that some important person had arrived. Many people stood up and left the banquet, gathering towards the door.

Yang Hao turned his head and took a curious look, and saw a man in his early thirties walking into the banquet hall surrounded by several older men.

The man's hair was combed and shiny, the kind that would make flies slip on it. He wore a flirty light pink shirt on his upper body, dark gray trousers on his lower body, and a pair of bright brown leather shoes on his feet.

 “Chief Zheng!”

 “Mr. Zheng!”

 “Master Zheng.”

 After the man walked into the banquet hall, three different calls rang out around him.

“You're still so good at it!”

Zhao Xiaofeng glanced at the man, and then whispered.

 “It's not just because of my father's ability.”

Kang Xiaowei muttered.

 “Do you all know him?”

Yang Hao asked curiously.

 “I was a classmate when I was young.”

Zhao Xiaofeng immediately introduced: "His name is Zheng Dapeng. His father is the director of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant. Now he also works in Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant and is the section chief of the sales department."

“Although everyone is very respectful to him, they are actually doing it for his father's sake. Without his father, how could he become the section chief?”

 After speaking, Zhao Xiaofeng curled his lips in disdain. Zhao Xiaofeng was both disdainful and jealous of people with connections like Zheng Dapeng.

What is disdainful is that although the other party has average abilities, he can still take on important responsibilities in a large factory like Xiangyang Iron and Steel Works.

 But at the same time, he is very jealous of the other person. Why is it that he is not the one who has such a relationship?

 In fact, when he was in his early twenties, Zhao Xiaofeng was more disdainful of people like Zheng Dapeng, because he felt that with his own efforts, one day he would be able to achieve higher achievements and surpass them.

 But as age continues to increase, disdain has become more and more intense, and on the contrary, jealousy has increased, because as Zhao Xiaofeng grows older, he finds that as soon as he leaves school, he is already at the peak he can reach.

Effort is not useless, but it can only determine the lower limit of your quality of life, but it cannot really change your destiny.

  Sometimes, even after several generations of hard work, you still haven't reached the threshold when someone was born.

“He should be here to wish grandpa a birthday on behalf of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Works.” Kang Xiaowei took over.

 Mr. Kang Jingchun was the workshop director of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant before his retirement, and he can be regarded as devoting his whole life to Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant.

Even though he is retired now, the factory cannot ignore him. Especially on his eightieth birthday, it is natural for the factory to send someone to give him some birthday gifts.

Zheng Dapeng was smiling as he dealt with the people who came up to say hello, while walking towards the main table where Kang Jingchun was. When he arrived at the main table, his eyes were immediately attracted to Li Manni. After a while, he reluctantly looked back and handed the cigarettes and wine he brought to Kang Jingchun: "Director Kang, on behalf of the factory, I wish you a happy birthday!"

“I hope you will be in good health and live another eighty years!”

Zheng Dapeng put down the cigarettes and wine he brought and handed over another red envelope: "Uncle Kang, this is a little personal thought of mine."

Zheng Dapeng is indeed a salesperson, and what he said is quite accurate. He first called him "Director Kang", which was the name he used in the factory. It was very appropriate to give gifts on behalf of the factory.

 Later he called him "Uncle Kang", which was a private title. Considering the age difference between him and Kang Jingchun, it was normal to call him "grandpa".

In addition, Zheng Dapeng actually has a little selfishness. This red envelope is not his personal intention, but was sent to him by his father.

 But Zheng Dapeng immediately changed his mind after seeing Li Manni and changed his father's wishes into his own. In this way, he could refresh his favor in Kang Jingchun's mind and allow the old man to introduce him to Li Manni.

“The factory can still remember me as an old guy, thank you to the factory.”

“Thank you, Xiao Zheng, for making the trip yourself.”

 Kang Jingchun accepted the birthday gift with a smile on his face. He had worked at Xiangyang Steel Plant all his life and had a strong sense of belonging to the factory. Therefore, he was very happy and proud that the factory could send someone to give him a birthday gift.

There are so many retired employees at Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant, but not many are treated like him.

 “Xiao Zheng, sit down.”

 “You sit at this table!”

Kang Jingchun pointed to the remaining empty seats at the main table.

At present, the main table is occupied by the Kang family. Kang Jingchun allowed Zheng Dapeng to sit here, which is considered to be a favor to him.

 “Okay, I'll listen to Uncle Kang's arrangements.”

Zheng Dapeng nodded and glanced around the main table. He actually wanted to sit directly next to Li Manni. However, there were people next to Li Manni at this moment, Yang Hao on the left, Xi Xi on the right, and Li Manshu next to him.

So Zheng Dapeng couldn't get together at all, so he had to sit next to his old classmate Zhao Xiaofeng.

“Xiaofeng, long time no see. I heard you are doing well in Shanghai!”

 After Zheng Dapeng sat down, he took the lead in chatting with Zhao Xiaofeng, whom he was relatively familiar with.

 “It's just me, but I can't compare with Brother Peng.”

Zhao Xiaofeng said politely. He and Zheng Dapeng had little contact with each other, so of course there were no special occasions. There was no problem in sitting together and chatting.

 “Humble!”

Zheng Dapeng waved his hand: "I heard that Xiaofeng works for a large company in Shanghai, unlike me who can only live in a small place like Xiangyang."

“Moreover, the efficiency of Xiangyang Steel Plant has become worse and worse in recent years. As the head of the sales department, I worry about performance every day. This year, the factory has set a sales target of one billion for me. Isn't this a joke?”

Zheng Dapeng seemed to be complaining, but in fact he was showing off his identity as the head of the sales department of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant, and also told everyone present that the sales he negotiated were all calculated in units of hundreds of millions.

Of course, Zheng Dapeng's main target was actually Li Manni. While he was talking, he kept watching the beauty's reaction from the corner of his eye.

What disappointed him was that although he was chatting away, the other party seemed completely uninterested, and there wasn't even any emotion in his eyes.

 Isn't the one billion sales target awesome?

 Can the beauty give me some reaction?

Zheng Dapeng silently cursed in his heart.

“Brother Peng, how far have you achieved the sales target of one billion?”

 At this time, Kang Xiaowei took over.

His father Kang Zhifei's company is in the steel business, and it also cooperates with Xiangyang Steel Plant. Currently, Kang Xiaowei is studying in his father's company, so he naturally knows the situation of Xiangyang Steel Plant. Although the sales target is set at one billion, in the end It's good to be able to complete three achievements, so his question was actually deliberately to cause trouble.

Sure enough, after listening to Kang Xiaowei's question, Zheng Dapeng's mouth twitched unnoticeably, and then replied: "The global economy is currently in a recession, especially the steel industry. Let's not say that your family's life will be difficult this year. Have a good time!"

Zheng Dapeng's sales efforts over the years were not in vain. He easily changed the topic and even stepped on Kang Xiaowei's feet.

“The steel business has been difficult in recent years, and life has been difficult for everyone!”

Kang Xiaowei curled his lips indifferently.

Since the real estate industry collapsed, the steel business has been hard to do. However, Kang Zhifei's company is in a better situation because most of the projects it cooperates with are government projects, unlike those big real estate companies that are prone to thunderstorms.

 However, there are many disadvantages to cooperation with the government, such as long settlement cycle.

Many local governments have been having a hard time in recent years. In some places, teachers' salaries have even begun to be in arrears, so the settlement of project funds has been even slower.

 Therefore, after Kang Xiaowei entered Dad's company, he spent most of his time following Dad to collect debts, or was sent out by Dad to collect debts.

“It will be over soon, and the economic situation will get better one day.”

 “The sun always comes after the storm!”

Zheng Dapeng laughed, and then his eyes fell on Kang Xiaoxiao: "Sister Xiaoxiao will go to college soon."

“I'm going to attend your college entrance banquet next week.”

 Kang Zhichao also works at Xiangyang Steel Plant, and he has inherited his father's mantle. However, Kang Zhichao's success in the factory is not as good as that of his father Kang Jingchun. Currently, he is only a deputy director of the logistics department, and his level is not as good as Zheng Dapeng.

“Well, I took the exam at Hucheng Normal University.”

Kang Xiaoxiao answered truthfully.

 “Sister Xiaoxiao is so amazing!”

Zheng Dapeng smiled and gave a thumbs up: "I wanted to go to Shanghai City University at that time, but unfortunately the scores were too low, so I couldn't do it."

“Hey, this beauty looks strange to me, is she Xiaoxiao's cousin?”

The groundwork was almost laid. Zheng Dapeng stopped talking nonsense and directly brought the topic to Li Manni. While asking, he also cast a gentle look.

“Oh, this is my cousin Li Manni.”

 “I thought Brother Peng knew him!”

Kang Xiaoxiao replied casually, the little girl didn't have much thought, after all, Zheng Dapeng had been talking to her just now.

 “Li Manni?”

Zheng Dapeng repeated the name in a low voice, and then his eyes suddenly lit up with an expression of surprise on his face: "I said it looks so familiar. It turns out he is a big star!"

“I see your videos every day. I look so much better in person than in the videos. I dare not recognize you!”

While speaking, Zheng Dapeng stood up directly from his seat, then took out a business card and handed it to Li Manni. He introduced himself formally: "Hello, Teacher Manni, my name is Zheng Dapeng, and I am a sales department manager at Xiangyang Steel Plant. long."

“By the way, my dad is Zheng Dongshan, the director of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant.”

Zheng Dapeng felt that he, the little section chief, was not enough, so he simply moved his father out.

  Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant has a very high level. The administrative level of the factory director is theoretically the same as that of the mayor of Xiangyang.
