Chapter 3130: Status Not Guaranteed

 Chapter 3130: Status Not Guaranteed

Charlie has never been a person who protects his shortcomings. His father-in-law's series of coquettish actions this time are indeed bad for his character, and he has no regrets. Naturally, it is impossible for Charlie to secretly support him again.

Therefore, he left this matter to his father-in-law, and he had decided to let it go.

However, Zhou Liangyun spoke kindly for Jacob at this time and said: "Master Wade, in fact, it is understandable to a certain extent that Mr. Wilson did this. When he 'broke' the vase, it was actually because of my plot. I let people beat him to make the acting more realistic. It's my duty for him to hold grudges."

Charlie nodded and sighed: "It's okay to hold grudges, and it's okay to take revenge. It's just that this method is a bit unsightly, but Even so, I still don't think it's a big problem if he wants to save face from you, but the problem is that he doesn't understand what it means to give up when things get baf."

"Before Zhang Ermao exposed this matter, he didn't really matter. Loss, although he sold a good thing, the thing itself was sold to him by someone else, and he also took away a net profit of 200,000 yuan from Uncle Zhou. The bad thing is that it is insufficient to him. , he knew that the bronze Buddha was sold at a high price, and he wanted to get the bronze Buddha back. If his step was not excessive, I would not let Zhang Ermao expose this matter."

After that, Charlie sighed: "In the final analysis. , Still can't afford it, it's still too difficult for him to give up and accept defeat."

Zhou Liangyun said with a smile: "Most people can't accept the loss of 20 million in one thought. Mr. Wilson wants to do it. It’s understandable to a certain extent that the things need to be returned.”

After saying that, Zhou Liangyun added: “As for the subsequent impact, as long as I don’t say anything about this matter and don’t go to the police, there is no way for the outside world to characterize it. As long as someone helps him, he should still have a place, but the relationship between colleagues may become more tense in the future."  

Charlie smiled and said, "Let him go, I am not ready to interfere in this matter."

Well." Zhou Liangyun nodded and said: "For Mr. Wilson, his style and logic of doing things are still lacking in maturity and rigor. Maybe he has never started a business in his life and has not experienced any storms. His comprehensive ability is still compared to that of most of his peers. There are too many shortcomings."

Charlie very much agreed with Zhou Liangyun's evaluation of Jacob. Although my father-in-law had lived a useless life, he had never experienced any troubles. He had been living in the Wilson family until he died a few years ago after graduating from college. After the old man left, life took a nosedive.

The key point is that he has been used to being suppressed by Elaine, the old lady and his eldest brother at home for so many years, and the lowering of his material life has not had much impact on him. Anyway, he is lying flat in the gold and silver dens, and the dog in the mud den. The nest also lies flat.

But he wanted to be the president of the Calligraphy and Painting Society, not because of any lofty ambitions or aims. His only goal was to accumulate some bragging rights so that he could have some face when going out in the future, that's all.

Therefore, judging from the current comprehensive social ability of the father-in-law, it may not be as good as a young man with three to five years of social work experience.

Moreover, he has not had any ambition for so many years. He has always lied down wherever he fell. The only time he has been motivated in his life is recently, in order to become the president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, he has been working hard every day, but becoming the president is not something he can do. I guess he is going to be a loser. If he can become the president of the Painting and Calligraphy Association, everyone in the Painting and Calligraphy Association will probably resign except him.

But Charlie is too lazy to take care of it now. His original intention of paying attention to this matter is that he is worried that his father-in-law and Zhang Ermao will use violent means to target Zhou Liangyun, and Zhou Liangyun has no foundation in Aurous Hill. If they really want to solve the problem through violent means, he is not their opponent at all.

Now that the crisis has been completely resolved, Zhang Ermao will no longer help his father-in-law target Zhou Liangyun, and his father-in-law has lost the support of violent means. And the farce they just caused has helped Zhou Liangyun quickly gain a foothold in Aurous Hill Antique Street. Zhou Liangyun's future development in Aurous Hill will definitely be much smoother.

So Charlie asked him: "What is Uncle Zhou's next plan?"

Zhou Liangyun replied: "I didn't want to be so high-profile. I just wanted to open a store in the antique street and start slowly. Now it suddenly has a lot of popularity. Many people come to me to appraise things every day, which can be regarded as a double-edged sword. I plan to slow down the pace a bit. From now on, I will open the door later and close earlier every day, and I will receive fewer customers. After a month, the popularity will subside."

After saying that, Zhou Liangyun added: "When the popularity slowly subsides, I will do business in a Buddhist way. Anyway, I don't want to make money, let alone make my career big. "The pace of life in the city of Aurous Hill is relatively fast If people can slow down, it will be very comfortable. I plan to slowly and leisurely retire here."

Charlie nodded and said, "The Rothschild family is relatively controllable ." , I just don’t know if the Po Qing Society is still paying attention to Sifang Baozhuang and your news. If the Po Qing Society can be eradicated in the future, you will be completely free."

Zhou Liangyun smiled and said: "I believe that with Master Wade's ability, this will be possible. The day will come soon."

After that, Zhou Liangyun thought of something and said hurriedly: "By the way, Master Wade, you haven't had dinner yet? Do you want to eat some local food at a small restaurant nearby? If you don't mind, can we eat some together in the store?"

Charlie smiled and said, "Okay, my wife is busy with the company these days, and she work overtime every night. Let's have a meal with you."

As he said that, he suddenly remembered someone and said to Zhou Liangyun: "By the way, Uncle Zhou, there is an old acquaintance of yours in Aurous Hill. Please order a few more dishes and I will call him over. "

    ...

At the same time, Jacob left Antique Street in despair, stopped a taxi, and said to the driver: "Go to Classic Mansion."

The main reason why Jacob wanted to go to Classic Mansion was to invite President Pei there. Have a meal and talk while eating.

So, he called Orval Hong first and said attentively: "Fifth Master, it's me, Jacob."

Orval Hong asked in a lukewarm voice: "What does Mr. Wilson want from me?"

Jacob said hurriedly: "That's it, Master Orval I want you to reserve a small box for me. I plan to invite our president to come over for a meal tonight."

Orval Hong declined politely: "I'm sorry, Mr. Wilson, there are distinguished guests at Classic Mansion tonight, Don’t tell anyone, let’s talk about it some other time.” 

Jacob didn’t expect that Orval Hong, who had always been very cheerful before, would be so rude now, and he felt a huge difference in his heart. He could only say bitterly: “Okay, Master Orval, since you It's not convenient. I'll talk about it another day. Thank you."

Orval Hong hummed and said, "I'll hang up now if you have nothing else to do. I'm busy."

After saying that, Orval Hong hung up directly without waiting for Jacob to speak . The call was disconnected.

This is not Orval Hong's fault. He respects Charlie from the bottom of his heart, and naturally respects Jacob from the bottom of his heart. But this time, Charlie said that he wanted to let his father-in-law know the price of doing something wrong, so of course he did not dare to continue to treat him good. Jacob was polite and responsive, but his attitude had to be cold so that Jacob could clearly feel the difference.

At this time, Jacob was extremely depressed and couldn't help but sigh to himself: "I never thought that after this incident, even Orval Hong wouldn't want to see me anymore. If I had known this, I might as well just hold that damn thing honestly. I'll be safe with 200,000, and have a good vacation in Dubai! That way, not only will I have 200,000 in hand, but the association won't know about these bad things, and Mr. Hong won't have any objections to me..."

Jacob, who was filled with regret, was sitting alone in the back seat of a taxi, tears of grievance almost falling.

Seeing that the driver was quietly looking at him through the rearview mirror in the car, he quickly turned his face to the side, then took out his cell phone and called President Pei.

As soon as the phone call came through, President Pei asked him: "Jacob, how is the matter going? Has Zhang Ermao done it?"

President Pei was still waiting for Jacob to find Mr. Orval Hong to put pressure on Zhang Ermao. Take the initiative to refute rumors.

But Jacob knew in his heart that there was no chance of refuting the rumors, so he could only say in embarrassment: "President Pei, there is something going on with Zhang Ermao. This guy is determined to confront me now, and Mr. Orval Hong has no idea what to do with him." Yes, and Mr. Orval Hong also told me about the difficulty. Zhang Ermao is his master. He is in a dilemma, so it is not convenient for him to intervene. "

President Pei smacked his lips and said: "Oh, this is a bit difficult. Done! If you can't refute the rumors, you can't stop the mouths of these people in the meeting!"

Jacob said hurriedly: "President Pei, although there is no way for Zhang Ermao to come out to refute the rumors, what I can guarantee is that this matter will definitely not continue to ferment. What Zhang Ermao said about fraud is pure nonsense. It is impossible for the police to intervene. If the police do not intervene, no one can characterize this matter. And I also told Zhou Liangyun "Yes, this matter is just a misunderstanding, and Zhou Liangyun also made it clear that he will not pursue it any further."

President Pei murmured: "This... this matter cannot be settled,"

Jacob said hurriedly ! : "The matter will not settle down, but it will not develop into a serious matter. After the limelight in the past few days, the popularity will probably go down."

President Pei said: "Jacob, you think the heat has gone down, but The people in the association may not let you go so easily. The key point is that you are now the second in command, blocking the way of many people, just like everyone is queuing up in front of a toilet, and everyone wants to squeeze in the person in front of them. "Let's go, and all of them are lining up behind you. If they don't squeeze you out, they won't give up. I'm afraid they will keep making trouble."

President Pei is also under a lot of pressure now.

In fact, he no longer plans to let Jacob take over his position, because in that case, all the pressure will be concentrated on himself. If Jacob breaks the scandal and continues to let him take the position, those people will definitely make trouble with him and even talk about him to the outside world. Protect Jacob.

But he didn't dare to offend Jacob too much. After all, he didn't know what Orval Hong's attitude was towards Jacob at the moment. If he offended Jacob and Jacob hated him, his path would not be easy in the future.

Therefore, President Pei's biggest wish now is that Jacob can voluntarily give up the competition for the position of president, preferably also the position of executive vice president.

In that case, the vice-presidents would each move up to a higher level, and he could appease their emotions, and by the way, keeping Jacob in the association would not offend the public.

Jacob hadn't yet understood the meaning of President Pei's words, so he said: "President Pei, those people are just grasshoppers after the fall. They won't be able to cause trouble for a few days. When you are promoted, I will become the president. "Of course I have a way to deal with them and make them behave honestly."

President Pei said hurriedly: "Jacob, you still don't understand. It's not about whether you are allowed to do the president's job, but whether you can do it." It’s about staying in the association! What they want is to remove you from the association, otherwise they will continue to make trouble, and they may even go to the city to report the situation, in case the city also feels this matter. If it damages the reputation of the association and asks you to withdraw from the association, I can't protect you!"

Jacob suddenly panicked and even cried out in a very anxious tone: "President! I beg you to help me now! I’ve already lost

 all my money, and there’s nothing you can do to stop me from watching my status in the association be ruined!”
