Chapter 346
Having asked a few passers-by in Yuping District, Lisa drove to the entrance of Yuping Hotel.
It was supposed to be a huge hotel, but it was merely a three-storey restaurant located at the corner of a street. Two huge lanterns were hung in front of the door, while the scarlet carpet was full of stains. Since it was located right opposite an agricultural market, the air was also filled with the smell of raw fish.
Jennie felt disgusted upon stepping out of the car. Although she frowned, she didn't say anything. Together with Lisa, she walked into the hotel.
Dressed in a grey suit, Wu Liangzhu had been waiting by the staircase by the living hall. Upon seeing Jennie, similar to most people, his gaze stunned for a while, before he finally revealed a friendly smile.
"Welcome here, Boss Kim. It's unfortunate that there's not a single presentable restaurant in a small district like this. I'm left with no choice but to treat Boss Kim to a meal at this small shop. Boss Kim, let's go in."
Wu Liangzhu noticed Lisa who was following behind Lisa but didn't pay much attention to him as he mistook Lisa as Jennie's assistant. He let out a friendly smile and nodded at Lisa.
Jennie's mind was occupied with the scene she witnessed earlier at the factory. She didn't find Wu Liangzhu pleasant so to speak, so her mouth stayed shut the entire time. Coming to the biggest room on the second floor, there were four men seated inside who were dressed formally.
Wu Liangzhu introduced them to Jennie one-by-one. They were the deputy director Qian Hao, the union president Wang Ze, the accountant Meng Fan and Wu Liangzhu's assistant, a young man called Little Liu.
These people looked rough, but Jennie wasn't too surprised as they probably grew up locally. She greeted them in a simple manner, and introduced Lisa as her driver and personal assistant.
The huge table was more than enough to accomodate the six people. Jennie sat at the main seat, while Lisa and Wu Liangzhu sat beside her.
"Mr Meng, are the accounts I asked for ready?" Jennie asked Meng Hao upon sitting down.
Meng Hao was stunned, as if he didn't know what was going on.
"The accounts for this year's operation at the factory. Didn't I call you earlier? Have you possibly forgotten about it?" Wu Liangzhu stared at Meng Hao in dissatisfaction.
Meng Hao slapped his head. Embarrassed, he said, "I'm sorry, Boss Kim. I... I got too excited and immediately rushed over when I was notified of your arrival to a small place like ours for inspection. Rest assured, I'll immediately send them to you after the meal!"
Lisa frowned, but didn't press on.
"Boss Kim, although work is important, we still have to finish this meal." Wu Liangzhu took two bottles of brand-new Chinese liquor of the brand Maotai. It was highly likely that he brought them over himself, it was impossible that a place like this hotel sold alcohol of that quality.
Although Jennie didn't like alcohol, and hated strong liquor even more, she'd still drink a little. It'd be too cruel if she didn't grant face during her first time meeting these managers of the low-level factory. As a result, Jennie didn't stop him from pouring the liquor into the two glasses.
[TL note: Read this if you're not familiar with the Chinese 'face' concept.]
Smiling, Wu Liangzhu asked Lisa, "Assistant Lisa, would you like a glass as well?"
Lisa waved his hand with a smile. He reached out to Jennie's glass and took it over. He said, "I'll drink Boss Kim's for her. She has to look through the accounts tonight and think of solutions to solve the issues surrounding the factory. Also, our Boss Kim doesn't like to drink, am I right?"
