Chapter 2853 a fate
After hearing Liu Jiahui's words, Liu Manqiong felt relieved.
Immediately, she couldn't help but mutter, "Dad, since Grandpa Qiu and Grandma Qiu are both here, why didn't you tell me earlier? I could prepare some gifts in advance, and now I'm making me come to the door empty-handed, which is so inappropriate..."
Liu Jiahui smiled and said, "Just with your personality, if I say that you will definitely not be willing to go there. At that time, I will definitely say that I just went to interview, it would be better not to bother others. Then I have to tell me not to tell others about this, I am your father, and I don't know you yet?"
Liu Manqiong was speechless for a moment. Thinking about what his father said, it was not unreasonable. According to his personality and the way he usually didn't deal with his father, it might be a result of both sides of the situation.
So she said, "Okay, then I'll go and visit Grandpa Qiu and Grandma Qiu first."
Liu Jiahui smiled and said, "You are so good! You have a good meal with you Grandpa Qiu and Grandma Qiu. Come back early after the interview. Dad will pick you up at the airport."
Liu Manqiong subconsciously said: "No need, I have to drive to the airport, just drive back by myself."
Liu Jiahui casually said: "It doesn't matter, I asked Amei to help you drive the car back. That's it, bye."
Before Liu Manqiong could agree, Liu Jiahui hung up the phone.
Although Liu Manqiong was helpless, he also knew that once his father decided to do something, he would find a way to achieve it no matter what. He just went to the airport to pick him up, and there was no need to be too repulsive.
So she put away the phone and said to Sister Xian: "Sorry, Sister Xian, I misunderstood you just now, and I hope you don't mind."
Sister Xian smiled and said, "Miss Liu, why are you polite to me?"
After saying that, she pointed to a Rolls-Royce on the roadside not far away and said, "The car is there, Miss Liu, let's go."
"Okay." Liu Manqiong nodded and followed Sister Xian to Rolls-Royce, and then Rolls-Royce drove towards Zijin Villa.
On the way, Liu Manqiong and Lin Wan'er had just arrived in Jinling, looking left and right in a novel way.
Sister Xian on the co-pilot looked back at Liu Manqiong and asked with a smile: "Is this my first time in Jinling?"
"Yes." Liu Manqiong nodded slightly: "I haven't been here before."
Sister Xian smiled and said, "I heard from our husband that you are going to apply for a job at Jinling University this time. I would like to ask more questions. You have never been to Jinling before. Why did you choose to come to Jinling from Hong Kong Island to develop? In terms of the level of urban development, Jinling is still much worse than Hong Kong Island."
When Liu Manqiong heard this question, what he subconsciously thought of was Ye Chen's figure.
When I came to Jinling by myself, I was naturally for Ye Chen, but I don’t know what the final result would be.
However, for Liu Manqiong, what she decided was always done first. It was completely different from her style when talking about it on paper.
However, Liu Manqiong was unwilling to tell the truth, so he said to Sister Xian: "I stayed in Hong Kong for too long and I have been a little too late. The pace of first-tier cities in the mainland is relatively fast, so I wanted to find a relatively comfortable city, so I chose Jinling after choosing it."
Sister Xian nodded in agreement and said with a smile: "The pace of life in Jinling is indeed slower than that in first-tier cities, and the environment is relatively comfortable. I have been here for many years and I like it more and more now. I believe that you will feel the same after staying here for a long time."
As he said that, Sister Xian said again: "If you are sure to stay in Jinling to develop in the future, if you need help in Jinling, you can contact me at any time."
After saying that, she handed a business card with both hands. The business card was very simple, with only three words Li Shuxian, plus a string of mobile phone numbers.
"Thank you." Liu Manqiong took the business card and thanked her politely, then asked her: "By the way, Sister Xian, if I am sure to stay in Jinling, I plan to buy a house near the school and live on a daily basis, do you have any recommendations?"
Sister Xian asked curiously: "What kind of house is Miss Liu looking for? A villa or a flat floor?"
"Flat floor." Liu Manqiong said without thinking: "I can't live in a villa alone. It's the best to have a finely decorated flat apartment, and it doesn't have to be too big. It's best to have a higher floor, so you can see the scenery if you have nothing to do."
Sister Xian thought for a while and said, "The best property in Jinling city is Tangchen Yipin. This is a villa with a high and low level flat floor, all of which are delivered in high and low levels, and it is for sale in real estate. What you see is what you get. The villas in this community are basically sold at tens of millions or even more than one hundred million yuan, and the flat floor is about 10 million to 20 to 30 million yuan, and the flat floor is a high-rise building. It meets your requirements, and it is not far from Jinling University, so it is normal to drive for more than ten minutes."
"Tang Chen Yipin..." Liu Manqiong nodded and thanked: "Thank you Sister Xian, I have written it down. After getting the entry notice, I will take time to check it out."
Sister Xian smiled and said, "Miss Manqiong, don't worry. With your own conditions, it is definitely no problem to apply for Jinling University. Jinling University now attaches great importance to internationalization and attaches great importance to foreign and Hong Kong teacher and student resources. If you have a doctorate degree from the mainland, the competition may be more intense, but if you have a Hong Kong identity, it will be relatively easier."
Liu Manqiong said in surprise: "Sister Xian is really familiar with Jinling, even the situation at Jinling University is so clear!"
Sister Xian smiled and said, "Our husband donated a lot of money to Jinling University many years ago. Although he rarely came here for so many years, he has always paid close attention to the situation of Jinling University. Moreover, my work in Jinling is very leisurely. If my wife doesn't come, I just need to take everyone to do a good job of hygiene and maintain the current situation of the manor. So those free time are basically used to understand all aspects of the city. So don't you think I am a Malay, but I can definitely be regarded as a Jinling Master."
Liu Manqiong nodded and said with a smile: "If I have the opportunity to come to work in Jinling in the future, I will definitely know more about you and learn more."
When Sister Xian heard that she was somewhat unsure of the position at Jinling University, she said seriously: "Ms. Liu, you can definitely be content with Jinling University in this regard. Even if you don't have any relationship, your resume will definitely be admitted. In recent years, mainland universities have paid great attention to internationalization. You are from Hong Kong Island and graduated from Hong Kong University. This is absolutely rare for Jinling University."
Liu Manqiong asked curiously: "Why do they pay so much attention to this aspect? Since it is running a school, wouldn't it be enough to do academic research well?"
Sister Xian smiled and said, "Look at Harvard, Yale and MIT, why are they famous all over the world? Not only are they doing a good job in academic research, but they also benefit from the top overseas students they admitted to around the world. Many young Chinese people went to these universities to study abroad. After they came back, they found their own businesses and gradually grew into big entrepreneurs worth hundreds of billions of dollars. When others talked about their resumes, the university they were studying in was a topic that could not be avoided. In this way, Harvard did not need to take the initiative to go to China to do any publicity, and everyone in China knew it;"
"Also, this kind of university pays great attention to high-end alumni. Any alumni who go out from them and have made significant achievements in all walks of life are the objects of their focus on maintaining and promoting it. This is a very powerful resource in itself and has great benefits for the development and promotion of the school;"
"Take Harvard University as an example, donations from the alumni association every year are worth one billion. Many mainland entrepreneurs donate to Harvard start with tens of millions of dollars, but looking at Jinling University, under normal circumstances, the alumni donations received every year may not even be one percent of Harvard. This is also the reason why mainland universities are eager to quickly internationalize. Moreover, because of the special circumstances of Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong Island is often a development direction for the internationalization of mainland universities."
Liu Manqiong said in surprise: "Sister Xian, you know so much. I haven't thought about these things in Hong Kong University for so many years..."
Sister Xian said modestly: "What I know is gossip. If ordinary people want to know, just pay more attention. Compared with an elite like you who focus on academics, it is really far from that..."
As she said that, Sister Xian said: "If Jinling University hires you, a doctor from Hong Kong University, you may be able to directly or indirectly bring some Hong Kong student resources to Jinling University in the future. This is what Jinling University values more. Based on these reasons, I dare to say that you will definitely pass this interview."
When Liu Manqiong heard this, he suddenly realized and nodded.
Because she has never left Hong Kong Island much, and she doesn't care much about things that have nothing to do with her, Liu Manqiong has never known what Sister Xian said.
After hearing her words, Liu Manqiong's confidence was a little more than before.
...
At this moment.
Purple Mountain Villa.
Lin Wan'er was listening to the cicadas under the tree in the yard.
She set up a rocking chair with hand-woven vines under the tree and then a small bamboo tea table. The tea table is made of very mini carbon stoves. The charcoal made of high-quality olives is burnt. It will not burst or break when burned, and there will be no smoke or dust. It will even have a very special aroma.
On the carbon stove, a handful of pottery steak (diDo) was sitting, and among them, a pot of dark red Pu'er tea was boiled.
Lin Wan'er loves to drink tea. She usually starts cooking and tasting tea at breakfast, and after dinner, she also needs tea at lunch, and when reading books in the afternoon and eating a few pieces of refreshments at will, she also needs tea, and even keeps tea at night.
Moreover, Pu'er is a tea with a very heavy soup color. Although Lin Wan'er drinks tea continuously every day, her white and bright teeth have never stained any tea stains because of drinking tea.
Just as she put down the book and picked up the teacup to take a sip, a soft knock came from outside the door, and Qiu Yingshan's voice rang out immediately, and he asked respectfully: "Miss, is it convenient for you now?"
Lin Wan'er smiled and said, "It's convenient, come in."
Qiu Yingshan then carefully pushed open the yard door and walked in slowly.
Lin Wan'er looked at him. Seeing that he was hunched, panting silently, and sweating on his forehead and cheeks, she asked curiously: "Why do you need to come up in person? The stone steps are steep, so with your current body, you should be more careful."
Qiu Yingshan swallowed, then said with some breath and weakness: "I'm... I'm going to have something to do. I want to report to the lady in person..."
Lin Wan'er pointed to a low bamboo stool under the tree and said, "Sit down and talk, it's just a cup of tea."
Qiu Yingshan was flattered and nodded quickly, his steps even faster.
He first moved a bamboo stool, then sat down in front of Lin Wan'er, and said respectfully: "Miss... That's it, I... There is a granddaughter who happened to come to Jinling for an interview, so I invited her to the manor and had a regular meal, because I just learned about it in the morning and didn't report it to you in advance, so please don't blame me."
Lin Wan'er took a new teacup and rinsed it with tea, and said with a smile: "This is your place. You are the master. If you want to have a banquet, why do you need to report to me? I am just one of your guests."
Qiu Yingshan said without hesitation: "Miss, this is the second thing I want to ask you to agree. It is rare that you like this place. I am older. I am afraid I won't come here again from now on, so I want to give you Zijin Villa and hope you can accept it!"
Lin Wan'er was slightly stunned, then shook her head and smiled, "I'm not sure how long I will stay here, so you should leave it to your descendants."
Qiu Yingshan hurriedly said, "Miss, my descendants have been frugal since childhood and are too impetuous. To be honest, they are not worthy of such a place. Giving them a gift is a waste, so please don't follow you and be polite."
Lin Wan'er shrugged her shoulders, handed him the tea, and said with a smile: "Since you insist, I won't be polite to you. If one day I don't need this house and you are still alive, I will return it to the original owner. If you have left by then, I will leave it to your descendants."
When Qiu Yingshan heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "These are all based on your wishes."
Lin Wan'er pointed to the cup of tea he poured for him and said lightly: "Drink a cup, I see you are out of breath, you are so embarrassed. Next time, don't climb so high. If you have something to do, call me and send WeChat messages."
Qiu Yingshan bowed respectfully: "I'm here to obey the order!"
As he said that, he carefully picked up the tea cup, took a sip, then looked at the tea cake next to the carbon stove, and asked tentatively: "Miss, do you still like your appetite when you drink this tea from Songpinhao?"
This tea was specially collected from Hong Kong Island by Qiu Yingshan and brought it to Jinling to give to Lin Wan'er.
Pu'er tea, this tea cake has a history of hundreds of years and can be regarded as the best among Pu'er tea. In the list Lin Wan'er gave Sister Xian, she wrote that she wanted Pu'er tea cake, but she didn't write about what she wanted, so she bought the most expensive and best one.
Lin Wan'er smiled slightly at this time and said, "Tea that can be sold for hundreds or tens of millions of dollars per cake is naturally not an ordinary product. If you use the money to find it on the market, this should be the most expensive and best Pu'er tea you can buy."
As he said that, Lin Wan'er changed her tone and said with a smile: "But it's far from my best tea cake."
Qiu Yingshan said with a smile: "The things you can buy with money cannot be compared with the lady's collection."
Lin Wan'er smiled slightly and asked him: "Lao Qiu, you should have something to tell me, right?"
Qiu Yingshan then laughed and said, "It turns out that I can't escape the young lady's eye!"
After saying that, he said again: "Miss is like this. My granddaughter is about to go to Jinling University to apply for a lecturer. And with her current conditions, this time it should be a sure win. I think you will go to Jinling University to study in the future and she will teach at Jinling University. It is also a fate to be here today. You might as well take this opportunity to get to know her, and maybe there is still some care in the future."
