Chapter 122 The Bible That's Incomprehensible
"Boss, didn't you say..."
"Alright, just do as I say."
"Yes, boss."
Cheng Tianhai had originally intended to have this pockmarked man find Chao Bufan and teach him a lesson, but now he thought that his daughter might have already taken a liking to this boy named Chao Bufan. If he really taught him a lesson, his daughter would definitely be unhappy, so he gave up the idea. After hanging up the phone, he picked up the pen on the table and continued writing.
Tang Group, Chairman's Office.
"Chairman Chao, Manager Wang just called and said that the Xihai side has reached an agreement with the government and is asking when you can start construction," Mao Mao said as he came out of his office.
"Okay," Chao Bufan nodded and said, "Tell Manager Wang to have them start work tomorrow!"
"Ok."
"Jingle Bell!"
The landline phone on the table rang, and Chao Bufan pressed the answer button.
"Chairman, there's a girl named Lin Xiaomin outside looking for you."
"Xiao Min?" Chao Bufan was startled, wondering why she was here. He then said, "Let her in!"
"Yes, Chairman."
After hanging up the phone, Chao Bufan became suspicious. Why did she call me? Had something happened to her brother?
"Mao Mao, come out here for a moment," Chao Bufan called out to the office inside.
"Chairman Chao, what's the matter?" Mao Mao came out and asked.
"Oh, I'm out of cigarettes. Go out and buy me a pack. I'll give you the money later, you can pay for it first."
"Okay, Mr. Chao."
Chao Bufan deliberately distracted Mao Mao, then took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and leisurely smoked it with an air of great style.
Soon, Lin Xiaomin knocked on the door, then walked in with a smile and bowed deeply to Chao Bufan: "Hello, Chairman!"
Chao Bufan nodded and asked, "Xiaomin, what brings you here?"
"Nothing else, just about my brother. My mom called to say that he's had surgery and is currently recovering. So, I'm here to thank you, Chairman." Lin Xiaomin replied easily with gratitude.
Chao Bufan placed the cigarette in the ashtray's groove and said, "Actually, it's nothing, just a small favor. You don't need to come all this way to thank me. If you really want to thank me, then you should focus on your work."
Xiaomin nodded emphatically: "Yes, I will. That's why I came here this time to apply for a sales position at headquarters."
Chao Bufan asked in surprise, "You're here to apply for a sales position at headquarters?"
Lin Xiaomin replied, "Yes, Chairman."
Chao Bufan quickly asked, "Weren't you doing sales for a company in Hangzhou? Why did you quit?"
"Nothing's surprising!" Lin Xiaomin said with a smile. "I just wanted a change of scenery. Besides, those two foreign companies have already signed long-term cooperation contracts with our Tang Group, so I came here."
Chao Bufan knew a little about Lin Xiaomin. She was stubborn and never changed her mind once she made a decision. She would never give up halfway. This was somewhat similar to his own personality. He nodded and said, "Xiaomin, I won't stop you from changing your work environment, but shouldn't you consider other jobs? For example, accounting or financial management?"
Xiaomin smiled and said, "No, I came here for the sales position. Chairman, with my qualifications, I shouldn't have any problem being a salesperson at headquarters!"
"There's no problem, but I think it's a waste. You should choose a job that matches your major."
"I really hadn't thought about that, Chairman. Can I come to work tomorrow?"
"Are you really here for a sales interview?"
"Yes!"
Chao Bufan pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright then!"
Upon hearing this, Xiaomin was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Chairman!"
Just then, Mao Mao returned from buying cigarettes, and Chao Bufan said, "Mao Mao, go and greet Manager Liao from the HR department. This Ms. Lin is here to interview for a sales position at our company. Take her over to complete her onboarding procedures."
"Yes, Chairman."
"Xiaomin, go with Mao Mao to the HR department now to complete the relevant procedures, and start work tomorrow."
"Okay, Chairman."
After Mao Mao and Lin Xiaomin left, Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled. However, from the moment he saw Lin Xiaomin, Chao Bufan's heart fluttered. He didn't care about anything else; as long as she was a beautiful woman, he wouldn't let her go. To him, twenty wouldn't be too many, and eighteen wouldn't be too few. So, when Lin Xiaomin volunteered to work as a salesperson here, he was actually quite excited. After all, in his eyes, there was another one to warm his bed.
"Bufan, what are you thinking about?" Tang Qianqian appeared in front of Chao Bufan with a pile of documents. Seeing Chao Bufan sitting there in a daze, she asked.
"Oh, it's nothing, just thinking about some things." Chao Bufan quickly suppressed his lewd thoughts.
Tang Qianqian placed a large stack of documents on Chao Bufan's desk and said, "These documents all need your signature and stamp! Take a look when you have time!"
Chao Bufan smiled and said, "Let's put the data aside for now! Qianqian, I actually need to talk to you about something!"
"What is it?"
Chao Bufan quickly took out the Bible from the drawer and said, "Could you translate the contents of this book for me?"
"The Bible?" Tang Qianqian was slightly surprised and asked, "Bufan, where did you get such a thick Bible?"
Chao Bufan smiled and said, "I got this Bible from the Space Ranger yesterday."
"The Godwalker? Didn't you say it was just a mirage?" Tang Qianqian asked in surprise again.
Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "I was just kidding you, Qianqian. This Bible is very, very important to me, but I can't understand what these strange words mean at all. Take a look and see if you can understand it."
Upon hearing this, Tang Qianqian opened the Bible to the first page, looked at it, flipped through a few more pages, and then shook her head, saying, "I don't understand it either, Bufan, you can look it up online!"
“I’ve checked,” Chao Bufan said, “but I can’t find it online at all.”
"No way! Many large bookstores in China sell the Bible. You can just buy one."
"So, is this the kind you're talking about?" Chao Bufan took out another Bible from the drawer.
"Yes, you can refer to this Bible."
“This is a fake; this is the real one. Besides, their contents are completely different,” Chao Bufan said with a wry smile.
