Edgar Austin said: "I'm not kidding."
Daleyza looked at Edgar Austin, her eyes full of contempt, "Classmate Edgar, when did you become such a person?"
"Who have I become?"
"Liar."Daleyza added, "Besides, he is the kind of liar who even wants to deceive himself."
Edgar Austin also looked at her, but he just smiled and didn't want to say anything. This encounter was purely accidental. He was no longer the same person he was in high school, but she seemed to still be the same proud and ruthless person she was in high school. Faced with her doubts and cynicism, he didn't feel the slightest bit angry because it wasn't worth it. Now, he didn't even want to say another word to her. If he said any more, he would feel tired and redundant.
Edgar Austin was silent, but Daleyza felt that she had hit Edgar Austin's sore spot, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, "I'm right, right? Classmate Edgar, I give you half a minute to leave here, you should go This is not a place for you to stay. If you are still sitting here in half a minute, I will call the security guard over. You don’t want me to do that, do you?”
Edgar Austin said: "Classmate Daleyza, I really don't want to talk to you too much, I'm so tired. Let me tell you this, if I leave now and you drive me away, your Chairman Asher will definitely scold you. of."
"It seems I really need to call security."Daleyza took out her mobile phone and prepared to make a call.
Edgar Austin didn't bother to explain to her, so he picked up a magazine and flipped through it.
At this time, a middle-aged man walked in from the door. He was not tall, less than 1.7 meters tall, with a fat face and a beer belly. He looked like the kind of person who had achieved a little success in his career and lived an uncontrolled life.
"Honey, what happened?" The middle-aged man called Daleyza"honey" as soon as he came in, not hiding his love for Daleyza at all.
This title startled Edgar Austin, and the words of Daleyza in his love letter to her suddenly appeared in his mind: I like boys like Nicky Wu, may I ask Classmate Edgar, are you like that? A boy?
Is this guy the kind of boy she thinks of Nicky Wu?
"Who are you?" The middle-aged man looked at Edgar Austin who was laughing for no reason and asked politely.
Before Edgar Austin could speak, Daleyza rushed to say: "Husband, his name is Edgar Austin and he is my classmate in high school. I think he is here to cause trouble for me today. He is staying in Chairman Asher's reception room and refuses to leave. .”
The middle-aged man's fat face suddenly darkened, and he pointed at Edgar Austin, "Get out!"
Edgar Austin said with a smile: "Mr. Nicky Wu, please speak more politely."
"Nicky Wu?" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, "Who is Nicky Wu?"
Edgar Austin looked at Daleyza with a surprised look, "Isn't your lover Nicky Wu?"
The middle-aged man said suspiciously: "Dear, what's going on? Who is Nicky Wu? When did Nicky Wu appear?"
Daleyza stamped her feet angrily, "Nicky Wu is a Taiwanese singer, you really embarrass me!"
"I..." The middle-aged man's fat face suddenly turned the color of pig liver. Only then did he realize that Edgar Austin was teasing him on purpose. He walked towards Edgar Austin, ready to chase him away.
Just then Lola Gellar suddenly walked in from the door, and then a tall old man with a good temperament also walked in.
Upon seeing Lola Gellar and the old man, Daleyza and the middle-aged man nodded in greeting, "Chairman Asher."
This tall old man is Asher Gellar, the chairman of Dongfeng Heavy Industries. Daleyza and her husband were so respectful, but he just nodded lightly.
Lola Gellar said: "Second uncle, this is Master Edgar Austin I told you." Then she said: "Mr. Edgar, this is my second uncle Asher Gellar."
Edgar Austin then stood up from the sofa, stretched out his hands to shake hands with Asher Gellar, and said, "Hello, Chairman Asher."
Asher Gellar also stretched out a hand to shake Edgar Austin. Edgar Austin was a junior, so there was no need for him to stretch out his hands. After shaking hands with Edgar Austin twice, Asher Gellar said: "Mr. Edgar, I have been very interested in you since Lola Gellar told me about you. I am very happy that you are here. Let's sit down and talk."
Edgar Austin said: "Okay, Chairman Asher, please take a seat."
Asher Gellar smiled, and Edgar Austin's politeness was very helpful to him. Then he glanced at Daleyza, who was standing beside him with his mouth open, and frowned slightly, "Why are you still standing? Why don't you serve tea to Mr. Edgar quickly?" .”
Only then did Daleyza come to her senses and quickly went to make tea. Her cheeks felt hot, remembering the tone she used to talk to Edgar Austin just now, but now she was scolded to make tea for Edgar Austin. The slap in the face really hurt! She couldn't figure it out in her heart, how could a poor boy who she looked down on back then become successful?
Asher Gellar glanced at Daleyza's husband and said, "Hector West, why are you still standing here? Don't you have to do anything anymore?"
"I...I'm going to do something, Chairman Asher." The middle-aged man known as Hector West moved faster than the wind.
Daleyza came over with three cups of tea, first placing one cup in front of Asher Gellar, then placing one cup in front of Lola Gellar, and finally placing one cup in front of Edgar Austin. When putting the tea cup, she looked at Edgar Austin with complicated eyes.
Edgar Austin said calmly: "Thank you."
"No...you're welcome."Daleyza said awkwardly.
Edgar Austin had nothing to say to her anymore.
Asher Gellar said: "Secretary Daleyza, take a pen and paper to record the content of the conversation and make a memo for me."
"Yes, Chairman Asher."Daleyza turned around to get the notebook and pen. She is a very smart woman and can guess many things at a glance, but this time she felt that her IQ was not enough and she could not guess what the dignified Chairman Asher was talking about with that boy Edgar Austin.
Before Daleyza was in place, Asher Gellar said: "Mr. Edgar, I like to be straightforward when doing things. I hope our conversation will be like this."
Edgar Austin smiled and said, "No problem, Chairman Asher. If you have anything to say, please just say it."
"Okay, I'll tell you directly."Asher Gellar said: "I believe that Lola Gellar has told you some situations before you came, so I won't repeat it more. I just want to ask you, if I transfer a very important order It’s been left to you to do, are you capable of completing it?”
Edgar Austin thought for a while and then said: "That depends on the quality requirements and quantity of the processed parts. My studio is very small. There are only three people at the moment. It is impossible to complete a large order."
Asher Gellar smiled and said: "You are a real person. When I meet many people when talking about business, they talk about how big my company is, how many employees I have, etc., but you say you only have three people. However, I like your realism. people."
Edgar Austin smiled politely and just listened without interrupting.
At this time , Daleyza sat behind Asher Gellar with a notebook and pen. She glanced at Edgar Austin Lei, with a smile on her lips, looking very quiet.
Although I know what kind of woman she is, putting aside those negative things, she is definitely a temperamental beauty. Back then, Edgar Austin was also attracted by her classical temperament. However, he is no longer the same person he was back then. No matter how beautiful she is, he can't find the pounding feeling he had back then. He didn't even feel anything, not at all.
"Mr. Edgar, actually you don't have to worry about these." Here, Asher Gellar continued: "There have never been big orders for precision machining parts. In the past, we imported the precision machining parts we needed from European countries. At that time, it was not as good as it is now. Strict technical blockade. Now there is a very strict technical blockade policy, and we can no longer buy what we need. At the same time, the domestic precision processing industry is in a very backward state, which has a great impact on our country's development. Economic development and national defense construction are very unfavorable..."
Lola Gellar suddenly interrupted Asher Gellar, "Second uncle, you are starting to talk nonsense again. You have said these words to me three times."
Asher Gellar chuckled, "You girl, you have been spoiled by me and your old man, and you are rude." 1
"Second uncle."Lola Gellar looked dissatisfied.
Asher Gellar smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I can't tell you. I'll just get down to business. Mr. Edgar, it's like this. Our company urgently needs a batch of precision machined parts. The quantity is not large, but the quality and precision requirements are very high. We have found many machinery manufacturing companies. They have the equipment, but no one can process it. Even if they can barely make it, it is not qualified. If you have this ability, our company will provide you with what you need. Processing equipment and materials, as well as samples, you don’t need to know where these processed parts are used, you just need to make a batch and come out. How about it, are you willing to give it a try? "
Edgar Austin said: "No problem, I'm willing to give it a try."
"Okay, I like courageous young people."Asher Gellar said: "Now tell me your requirements. What do you need?"
Edgar Austin said: "If I can do it, let me know. I want to see the original parts to be processed and your processing equipment. Is that okay?"
Asher Gellar said, "No problem, I'll take you there now." He stood up and left, then said to Daleyza, "Secretary Daleyza, don't forget it. Go to the workshop and let them prepare it."
"Okay, Chairman Asher, I'll go right away."Daleyza didn't dare to hesitate at all, and quickly left the reception room before Asher Gellar left.
After leaving the door, Asher Gellar walked in front, and Edgar Austin and Lola Gellar followed him towards a workshop.
Lola Gellar whispered: "Mr. Edgar, Secretary Daleyza looks at you very strangely. Why, do you know each other?"
Her powers of observation are really good. Edgar Austin whispered: "I know her. She was my classmate in high school."
"That's it." A sly smile appeared on Lola Gellar's face, "She looks at you with that look. I guess there must be some story between you, right?"
Edgar Austin smiled. He didn't want to talk about this topic, so he changed the topic, "By the way, Sister Miss Lola, why didn't your second uncle ask me what qualifications I had? He should have asked. He did it casually for such a big thing. Just believe me, this is not normal.”
On the one hand, there is a large state-owned enterprise, and on the other hand, there is a small workshop on the street. The two are talking about business and the deal is concluded at once. This kind of thing is probably only seen in TV dramas. In the real world, this is not normal at all.
Lola Gellar was silent for a moment before saying, "You really want to know?"
Edgar Austin said in surprise: "Of course, your second uncle has such a good attitude towards me. I kept thinking about this problem just now, but I couldn't understand it."
Lola Gellar suddenly pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay, I'll tell you why. My second uncle didn't agree at first and said I was fooling around. But when I told him you were my boyfriend, he agreed and then took the initiative to ask me out. You meet."
Edgar Austin, "..."
Lola Gellar's face turned red, "Well, I lied to my second uncle, don't take it seriously."
What else could Edgar Austin say?
