Rebirth of the Rich Second Generation's Growth Diary

Chapter 31 Bet
“It’s important to engage with people.”

Li Yuqian glanced at Li Xu. Normally he would not tell this brat these things, and he had no intention of listening anyway. But today was different. Li Xu immediately showed an expression of listening carefully.

Following this, he decided to talk about it.

"Unless you're truly devoted to scientific research, no matter what you do in society, you'll ultimately come back to the fundamental issue...interacting with people."

He didn't say the next sentence... If Li Xu wants to inherit the company in the future, this is more important than anything else.

Li Yuqian's academic qualifications are not actually that high. He only has a formal full-time education up to technical secondary school. However, after so many years in business, through the training he has participated in, the things he has learned from others, the things he has heard, the books he has read, and the things he has summarized on his own, he has gradually cultivated himself into an image similar to that of a Confucian businessman.

Naturally, I have my own understanding of learning.

"When dealing with people, you can't do it in a confined, small, enclosed space, so one or two people."

After Li Yuqian finished speaking, he did not continue. He was silent for a moment, not knowing whether he would be accused of preaching by this brat if he continued.

Of course, the more important reason is that he cannot understand these principles if I explain them now.

Then just let him make the decision on this matter.

What a mess of tutoring, it's meaningless.

If you really want to concentrate on studying...

In his spare time, he participated in extracurricular training, academic camps and social practice activities, sought consultants to carefully select and arrange them for him, interacted with leaders from all walks of life, and experienced the world, thereby honing his independent thinking and problem-solving abilities.

Don't rush, take your time.

As long as he works hard, his future will be to dominate the broad social stage rather than being confined to a small study.

But there was still some comfort… He actually offered to help him find a tutor?
"Dealing with people?" Li Xu lowered his head, thinking.

He used to scoff at his father's words, but now he listens carefully to every word and every truth his father teaches him, regardless of whether they are right or wrong.

……

Wei Qizheng and his son arrived at the private room early. After all, his status in this dinner was the lowest, so he naturally couldn't arrive last. He arranged for the waiter to make some arrangements, and then began to instruct his son.

"Again, be polite when they arrive! Remember the table manners I told you about?"

Wei Feng raised his head lazily and said, "You should wait for the elders or important guests to take their seats first before you take your seat."

Wedge was silent for a moment, waiting for his son to continue, but nothing happened.

"End?"

"Alas... Also, as a junior, we should take the initiative to pour wine for our elders or superiors... When pouring, we should hold the bottle in our right hand, with the label facing the guest, and the mouth of the bottle should not touch the wine glass." Wei Feng frowned and said with some dissatisfaction, "What a hassle! I really don't want to eat your meal at all."

Wei Qi was silent for a moment, then he pulled out his chair and slowly sat down. He tapped the table lightly and said, "Now that you've returned to China, you must follow its rules. One day, you'll be in a higher position, and these details will reveal whether your subordinates have you in their hearts... Over time, you'll slowly understand that a rule that persists throughout a country must have its reasons for existing."

"Okay, okay, I understand..." Wei Feng responded impatiently.

Wei Qi was still a little worried and added, "And the most important thing is to be less showy and be more low-key. Those two younger brothers and sisters are both high school students. Even if you have something on your mind, try to keep it to yourself."

Wei Feng said helplessly: "Okay, okay, it's okay if I don't say anything, right?"

But then he thought of something and asked, "By the way, what's Uncle Li's son's name? Um, it's Li Xu, right?" Wei Qizheng nodded and said, "You should have met him. I remember you had dinner with him once when you were in high school. He was only in elementary school at that time."

Weifeng recalled for a moment and seemed to have some impression, so he asked, "How are his grades?"

Wei Qi was silent for a moment, shook his head, and said softly, "Not very good."

Many of them knew that Li Xu's grades were not good.

"Oh."

Wei Feng nodded casually and didn't take it to heart.

Not long after, the waiter arrived with the next guest. Wei Qi was about to stand up to greet him. He looked around but only saw Tang Rui. He asked, "Mr. Tang, where is your daughter?"

Tang Rui smiled and said, "She's on her way here. She's not with me."

"Oh, I see... Come and sit down first, our chairman will be here soon!"

After the two sat down, Wei Qizheng winked at Wei Feng, who quickly asked the waiter to pour tea and water, and then the two began to chat casually.

Wei Qizhen and Tang Rui are naturally both people with extremely high emotional intelligence. They chatted about love and romance. When they couldn't find a topic, they talked about Weifeng next to them. It didn't seem awkward at all. Before they knew it, they were talking about Li Yuqian again.

"By the way, I heard that Yu Qian sent his son to the countryside?" Tang Rui picked up the tea beside him and took a sip.

Wei Qizheng nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, let the child experience life in the countryside."

Tang Rui laughed heartily and said bluntly, "This is useless."

Wei Qizheng smiled, picked up his teacup and drank, not daring to respond to this sentence... Just kidding, Tang Rui and Li Yuqian have been old friends for more than ten years, and their status is equal, so he can make such a joke. If I follow suit, wouldn't that mean I have no regard for the big king?
Tang Rui sat up straight and expressed his opinion bluntly, "For us, sending our children to live in the countryside is like a gust of wind, gone in a flash. They don't really have to put down roots there, nor do they have to worry about a few acres of thin land, let alone school and food. Can this be called experiencing life? At best, it's just a rural sightseeing tour."

"They've been accustomed to a life of luxury, with everything provided for them. Spending a few days in the countryside is like a trip. Can they truly understand the hardships of country folk? They probably just take a quick look, snap a few photos of the countryside, and then post them on QQ, saying they're enjoying nature and experiencing the hardships of life. But in reality, when they return to the city, they live as carefree as ever."

If Li Xu were present, he would definitely give Tang Rui a thumbs up, after all, he was like that in his previous life.

But Wei Qi thought about it, shook his head, and said after a moment's deliberation, "Your point of view does make sense. I just want to add a few humble comments."

"In the city, they live a comfortable life, and many things come too easily. They may become accustomed to them and fail to appreciate them. But when they go to the countryside, they can see with their own eyes the farmers toiling in the fields every day, tilling the soil, watering the crops, and applying fertilizers under the scorching sun to produce a heavy harvest of grain. They will understand that behind every bite of food they eat is the sweat and hard work of the villagers, and thus they will feel grateful for food."

"When they see the poor living conditions and limited medical and educational resources in the countryside, and then compare them to the comfortable homes and high-quality medical and educational services they enjoy in the city, they will become grateful for their living environment and resources and no longer take them for granted. Once this gratitude is formed, it will influence their values even when they return to the city, making them cherish life more in the future."

Wei Qi pondered for a moment and slowly expressed his opinion. It was unknown whether he really thought so.

"You understand gratitude after a trip to the countryside, right?" Tang Rui smiled, stroking his chin and saying, "Well, let's make a bet..."

Wei Qi was slightly stunned: "Uh, what are you betting on?"

Tang Rui looked at Wei Feng and said, "Xiao Feng, when is your father's birthday?"

Weifeng was stunned for a moment, then said without hesitation, "December 12th."

Because it just happened not long ago.

Tang Rui laughed heartily and said to Wei Qizheng, "Let's make a bet and see if Yu Qian's son can remember his birthday. If you lose, you have to drink three cups as punishment."
