“Don’t ask so much. There must be a lot of people trying to get into contact with Little Dong right now. With today’s sales, people will see him as the god of wealth now.” Lin Han knew what it meant to do business, and he understood this type of socialization better than anyone.
Only then did Mother Lin react to the fact that Lin Dong’s calls were from those cooperative managers, and she quickly said, “Then you should answer them quickly.”
“It’s fine, let’s eat first. They are all looking for me to ask about the product anyways, and we really don’t have any stock left over at the headquarters, so it’s okay to not pick up any calls.” Lin Dong said, “Let’s eat.”
Lin Han glared at him. “Business is important, you will screw up your master’s business, you know? Since he asked you to take care of it here, you can’t play with it. Knowing these people will do you good in business and society. You’re lucky that your master offered you this platform, letting you be one step ahead of others from the starting line. Do you know how many people want to climb up and get to know these Presidents? Yet they’re all phoning to find you. Even if the sales don’t go through, your relationship with them will stay. Knowing more of these people won’t hurt you, and you can only help your Master if you break into their social group. You can’t keep using your master’s resources without knowing how to expand them right?”
Lin Hu felt bitter on the inside as he listened.
Especially the phrase that “Your master offered you this platform, letting you be one step ahead of others from the starting line.”
Why don’t I have a master or relative like that?
“Then I’ll go take the calls.” Lin Dong nodded, thinking that his father indeed knew how to keep a stable business connection.
“Just take the call here, so I can supervise how you socialize with these people in the future,” Lin Han said.
Lin Dong picked up the phone.
“Hello?”
“Oh President Lin, your line’s always busy, I’m sure you’re extremely busy right now, right?”
Lin Dong laughed. “Pretty much.”
“Alright, if you have time then let’s get together for a meal if you’re willing. You can pick the time and place.”
Lin Dong: “Sure, if I have time I will definitely head to President Wang’s place and enjoy some food.”
“That sounds great. Then I won’t bother President Lin anymore since you’re busy. Give me a call once you have a chance.”
“Of course.”
After hanging up the phone, another call immediately came through.
He smiled bitterly. “This will go on endlessly.”
“Pick it up, you still need more exercise at your age and focus on business.” Lin Han told him to continue answering the calls as if this was nothing.
Lin Dong stood up and went to the balcony to pick up the phone calls; he spent half an hour on the balcony picking up calls one after another. Seeing his high spirited expressions, Lin Hu was more than envious and felt like the food in his mouth was as tasteless as wax.
“If I had a master like that, why should I worry about anything?” Lin Hu was somewhat not reconciled as he said it.
Lin Han looked at him and didn’t say anything at first. He took a bite of his food before he said, “Then who was the one who looked down on him in the first place? Your brother had good eyes, and people don’t get many opportunities in life, it’s whether you can grasp them or not. If you did, then this luck will do you twice as much with half the effort. It was because of your brother’s choice that he’s where he’s at today. He was firm on following his master even after you and I strongly disagreed with his decision. Your vision and determination are really unlike your brother, so don’t look down on him. Also, don’t forget that your brother helped you with your project, otherwise would that project director grant you that piece of land? You’re still working on your project with his money, so what’s your beef? You’re the older brother, and he gave you three hundred million without asking much. Where else would you find a brother like this in the world? Don’t be ungrateful. He is your own brother, and there is no need to be jealous. You must work for yourself, so that you can pay him back what you owe. You’re not young, be steadier and more well-rounded.”
“I know, Dad.” Lin Hu smiled bitterly. “I just think that he’s too lucky. How amazing is this master of his to put him one step ahead of most of the Shangcheng people who have worked hard for generations?”
