Chapter 540: The Lazy, Fair-skinned Youth and the Hardworking, Strong Laborer (73)
The lazy, fair-skinned educated youth and the hardworking, strong laborer (Seventy-three)
“…That’s probably what happened.”
Song Ning fell limply on the bed, looking at Lance's back as he diligently helped him pack up his clothes and hang them up.
“Did you bring so many?”
Why did he seem to see Lance take out some strange things just now?
Are you sure that's what he's going to wear?
"It's better to be prepared. I was worried that it might be too much, but now it sounds like it's a good thing I brought so much."
He was a little surprised that the exchange group was in such a situation. Lance did not expect that the exchange group would be full of conflicts from the beginning.
Although it sounds like the other party has backed off a bit at the moment, that is only relative to their original arrogance. From Director Wu's tone, it seems that they are not in an advantageous position and are just taking advantage of the other party's psychology.
After pondering for a while, Lance glanced at Song Ning.
"It looks like this exchange will be very troublesome. What does Mr. Mo say?"
We can probably tell a lot from Mr. Mo’s attitude.
"Teacher? It seems that the teacher has been called away temporarily for something important."
Song Ning recalled and shook his head.
"That's it."
The most important person is not here at this time, which makes people feel a little uneasy.
"Damn it! How dare these damn yellow monkeys do this to me!"
Robert returned to the room he was assigned to and was furious. He picked up things with both hands and smashed them on the ground. Even his beard could not hide his red face from anger.
"I must find something to hold against them and let them feel the humiliation!"
After the exchange group checked in, there was suddenly no sound.
This made Director Wu, who was in charge of the follow-up, feel very strange. He went to the other party many times to communicate with the other party to arrange the time for the exchange meeting, but each time he went he was only told that Robert was busy, Robert was not there at the moment, or Robert was not feeling well.
Director Wu asked the other party why he was feeling unwell. The other party even made up a lie and said that the food here was not tasty and there was no cuisine from a certain country, which made Mr. Robert lose his appetite and fall ill.
In short, the other party came here under the name of communication, but there was no real progress at all, and they just stayed there all day eating and drinking for free.
Director Wu was fine, but Li Yanli was young and hot-tempered, and he was so angry that he wanted to rush up with a knife and chop the man to death.
"What do they mean? They suddenly asked me to come over for communication, and it's fine if they came to find faults, but now they are lying there pretending to be dead and eating and drinking for free?"
The money these people spend on food and drink here every day comes from the flower-growing country!
"It's a little strange."
Director Wu rarely agreed with him. He frowned and began to think.
After a while, "No, I'll go again, and this time I have to show some attitude."
This time, Director Wu deliberately caught the other party off guard. He came to the other party's door while he was having dinner.
At that time, Robert and his group were eating with their mouths full of greasy food. Didn’t they look uncomfortable at all?
"I heard that Mr. Robert was not feeling well and was a little worried that he would not be able to make it to the exchange meeting. Now that I see that Mr. Robert has such a good appetite, I feel relieved."
When Director Wu said the word "have an appetite", Robert looked particularly funny with his mouth full of oil and a piece of pie in his hand.
Robert's face froze, and the next second he held his head high.
"This is all thanks to our accompanying doctor. I really couldn't get used to the messy food you guys have here, but after he diagnosed me and prescribed me some medicine, I really had to eat something to replenish my energy for the sake of my health."
As he spoke, it seemed as if the person who was eating happily like a pig was not him.
Open your eyes and tell lies.
Even though Director Wu was well-mannered, he was almost laughed out of anger by this shameless old man.
"I see Mr. Robert has such a good appetite, it doesn't look like he's trying too hard."
"I told you, this is thanks to the doctors on our team."
Robert waved his hand impatiently, as if to say, "Don't come and get involved."
The time for the exchange meeting was finally set.
As for how it was decided, it has something to do with Song Ning.
After staying here for three days and waiting for three days, he couldn't help but go to Director Wu to find out the situation.
It had been a long time since he and Lance had lived apart for such a long time since they came to Taipei together.
He even had some trouble falling asleep every night. Every time he turned his head, he saw his senior brother in the bed opposite him instead of Lance, which really made him feel uncomfortable.
After Director Wu told him the situation, Song Ning thought about it and gave him an idea.
"In that case, why not change the food supply? Didn't Robert say that he was in poor health and had no appetite? Then change the food to nourishing medicinal food."
Medicinal food is not that delicious, but if the other party wants to find fault, they will definitely not be able to find any fault.
Therefore, what Robert and his companions ate every day later became medicinal food that looked tasteless, often bitter, and had a strong smell of medicinal herbs.
As expected, Robert was furious and wanted to use this to vent his anger, but Director Wu, who was well prepared, directly listed the effects and values of medicinal foods, and said that they attached great importance to this exchange meeting. Knowing that Mr. Robert was not a good person, they would continue to provide such top-level treatment to the other party until the end of this exchange meeting.
After Robert had eaten three meals of medicinal food, he finally decided on the date of the exchange meeting with a grim face.
Although this made Director Wu feel relieved, it also gave Song Ning and his team a sigh of relief.
"This group of people is definitely not here for friendly exchanges. You must be careful."
Du Minglang heard it and sighed on the other end.
"Need I say that? I've already thought of this, but I don't know what the teacher is thinking. How can these people really let us learn anything real from them?"
“Whether we can learn or not, as long as we want to have friendly exchanges with academic leaders from other countries, we must show this attitude.”
Old Mo, who was covered in dust, appeared in front of several people. He looked tired and it was obvious that he had not had a good rest for several days.
"teacher."
"teacher!"
"Old Mo."
"You're welcome," Mr. Mo waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down. He also sat down and drank a sip of water before exhaling. "Now that the date has been set, we must do our best to see if we can learn something from them that we don't have. This is the goal of this exchange meeting. Do you two have confidence?"
Du Minglang and Song Ning looked at each other, and the latter blinked and his eyes became clear.
"A little bit."
Yes, but probably not many? After all, the other party seemed to be ill-intentioned.
