My Side Job is a Trader

Chapter 53 Old Friends Meeting

The company's layoffs had finally come to an end, and the office on the same floor was much vacant. Later, in order not to make the office look so empty, the company directly replaced the original boxy writing desk with a curved writing desk.

In this way, every four desks are put together and evenly distributed in the office, which seems to create a relaxed working atmosphere without making the space too empty.

Then, in order to get rid of the smell of the new desk, the company organized a tour directly, and all the employees who remained in the company would participate.

This surprised Zhang Xin. After all, although Internet companies previously claimed to have the benefits of organizing travel every year, until now, only the current company has put it into action.

Although it was only a three-day trip to Haizhou in the neighboring Suzhou Province, the company covered all the expenses. It was a rare opportunity to travel, and it was good to relax.

Talked to Li Xueer about the company trip, Li Xueer was full of envy, and finally told Zhang Xin not to forget to buy her some local specialties, Zhang Xin understood, knowing that this girl wanted to eat Haizhou's special products, but when he knew about Haizhou After buying the special products, you will feel that there is no need to bring them to Li Xueer.

After seven or eight hours of driving, Zhang Xin and others finally arrived at their destination.

The hotel arranged by the company is not bad. It is close to the seaside. If you are lucky, you can see the sea from your room.

The hotel has already prepared a sumptuous lunch for everyone. Everyone set off early in the morning, and they are basically hungry until now, so everyone doesn’t care if they know each other. They are all from the same company anyway. When the table is full, eat right away.

After eating, each went back to the room to rest for a while, and then began to go to the tour route arranged by the tour guide.

Zhang Xin is not as excited as the people around him. Although this kind of travel with someone planning the route saves trouble, it is not free enough. For example, some scenic spots are very interesting, but due to the limited time, everyone can only take a quick look at them. At most, they just take a photo. , to prove that he has been here.

For this kind of "visit here" type of tourism, Zhang Xin feels that he has lost the original intention of tourism to relax himself.

Moreover, Zhang Xin also had something on his mind. Through chatting with people from other departments of the company in the past few days, he learned about some specific businesses of the company, which also caused his troubles.

In just two or three hours in the afternoon, I didn’t get to play anything at all. The only thing I remembered was to keep walking with the big troops. The so-called ancient streets are actually some streets selling snacks and some tourist souvenirs. There is no ancient town at all. that tranquility.

After dinner in the evening, most people chose to go to the beach to play. Zhang Xin saw that there were people on the nearby beach, so he didn't bother to join in the fun.

Seeing that it was not completely dark yet, Zhang Xin called Li Mingji, a good friend from college.

"Chicken, are you home yet?"

"Hey, Brother Xin, it's so rare that you would take the initiative to call me."

"Would you like to come and get together, I'm in Donghai District, Haizhou now."

"Stop making trouble, don't you work in the Shanghai stock market?"

"Really, is there a hotel called xxxx in your Lianyun District? There is a pontoon bridge extending far away by the sea, and there is a white lighthouse not far away..."

"Okay, it seems that you are indeed in Haizhou, send me the location, and I will drive there."

Hang up the phone and send the location of the hotel. After a while, the other party sent a message, saying that they can arrive in 40 minutes.

Since graduating from university, Zhang Xin has never met Li Mingji again, but the two often chat on WeChat, and most of the topics are related to women.

An hour later, Zhang Xin and Li Mingji successfully met. As soon as Zhang Xin met, he teased: "Chicken, I thought you would bring a girl with you. Are you still single now?"

"Mao, my family has introduced a lot, but I just don't feel it after reading it. Sometimes it just feels almost meaningless."

The two sat down at a barbecue stand near the hotel and ordered some barbecue and cold beer.

Glancing at the people around him, Li Mingji said, "Are all your colleagues here?"

"Yes, otherwise, I really wouldn't have the chance to come to your hometown."

"Your company is also very good. It really organizes tours."

Picking up a beef skewer, Zhang Xin hurriedly said: "Don't interrupt, you should have no shortage of resources of the opposite sex, right? No one you like?"

"Hey, there really are. I'm talking about one right now. He's a university teacher who just graduated."

"Isn't that pretty good? The job is stable, and he's young, so he can be noticed by you, and his appearance should not be bad. Try to get it done, and come over to drink your wedding wine during the Chinese New Year."

"It shouldn't be so fast, after all, this is just the beginning."

The two haven't met each other since college, but they are not unfamiliar. They teased Li Mingji's blind date when they first met.

Drinking beer and grilling skewers, and blowing the sea breeze, it is indescribably comfortable.

"The size of your company is okay, with so many colleagues? Isn't it a listed company?"

Li Mingji looked around, there were more and more people.

Zhang Xin shook his head: "How could it be a listed company? Our company is engaged in Internet finance."

"What, isn't your company called a technology company?"

Zhang Xin said angrily: "I only found out today that the woolen technology company is just wearing the skin of Internet technology, and its main business is financial management."

"That's not bad, the financial company is not short of money, at least your boss is quite generous."

"Hey, half of the people who were just laid off a while ago, even if they are not short of money, it means layoffs will be laid off."

Almost two-thirds of the skewers ordered by the two were eaten by Li Mingji, and his mouth was covered with oil.

Because Zhang Xin was weighing one thing in his heart, he didn't care much about eating skewers, but he drank a lot of beer.

"Chicken, do you remember my college graduation thesis?"

Li Mingji replied: "Remember, we were guided by a mentor at the beginning. The topic of my thesis was shadow banking, and the topic you chose was the Internet combined with financial development trends."

"At the beginning, we thought too well. We only saw that the Internet combined with other industries can bring about changes, but this is a double-edged sword. What is the situation of Internet finance today? You should pay more attention to it, right?"

"Are you talking about those cases of illegal financing under the guise of Internet finance?"

Since there were colleagues from the company all around, it was inconvenient for others to hear some things, so Zhang Xin asked Li Mingji to walk along the embankment and chat while walking.

"Our company's so-called financial management should be quite similar. Today I heard a colleague say that the company's financial management income is 12%. What kind of financial management do you think can have such a high income?"

Li Mingji thought for a while, and was surprised: "You mean Pang..."
