Chapter 45 Treats the Entire Company to a Lavish Lunch
This experience is truly amazing.
"President Lu, President Bai, please."
Lu Ran smiled and nodded: "Thank you."
The receptionist smiled and said, "Take care, Mr. Lu."
Bai Yongxiang was very satisfied with the receptionist's performance. It was worth the effort of his advance notice; there were still promising talents in the company.
Bai Yongxiang led Lu Ran to the boss's private office.
The office is luxurious and very clean.
It looks similar to the offices of most company CEOs, but it is much larger than the offices of most small companies. The office of the boss where Lu Ran used to work was at least half the size of this.
The office is decorated with various antiques and calligraphy and paintings. Regardless of their monetary value, they certainly look impressive.
"Mr. Lu, the documents are all on your desk. You can take a look first."
Lu Ran nodded.
He then walked towards the boss's reserved seat.
At that moment, he recalled the scene of being called to the boss's office to be fed cakes and criticized during his work hours.
He once thought that if he could ever sit in this position, he would definitely drag that idiot boss over and give him a good scolding to vent his anger.
Let him experience what it's like to work three days in one day, working overtime until 10 p.m. every day.
But now he has actually reached this position, and the company is much larger than the one he worked for before.
Instead of feeling angry, I even found my previous thoughts a bit funny.
"Mr. Lu, please take a look first. Call us anytime if you need anything."
Bai Yongxiang smiled and said to Lu Ran, and after Lu Ran nodded, he led Li Qian out of the office.
Lu Ran picked up the documents on the table and examined them carefully. After confirming that there were no problems, he signed his name on each document.
After I finished, I checked the time and found that more than an hour had passed.
Just as I was about to ask Wu Xiaomeng if she was hungry, I looked up and saw the usually lively Wu Xiaomeng sitting quietly to one side, unusually so.
Lu Ran laughed and said, "What's wrong with you? Being so quiet isn't like you."
Wu Xiaomeng pouted: "Brother-in-law, how was I supposed to know you were here to be the boss? It's such a big company, I'm afraid I'll make a mistake and cause you trouble, so it's better to be honest."
Lu Ran shook his head and smiled.
He then asked, "You only ate a bowl of noodles this morning, you must be hungry now, right?"
Wu Xiaomeng nodded cutely, rubbing her stomach pitifully, "I'm not only hungry, but also thirsty. I want to drink milk tea."
Lu Ran smiled and placed her phone on the table: "Take this and get something to eat."
"No need, brother-in-law, I have money."
Lu Ran shook his head: "No, I'm asking for your help."
"Go ask the people in the company how many people are currently working, and order a deluxe lunch and drinks for each person."
"I believe this task shouldn't be too difficult for you, right?"
Lu Ran felt that Wu Xiaomeng's tough personality was definitely not a problem.
Wu Xiaomeng was shocked upon hearing this.
"Brother-in-law, this building must have at least several hundred people inside. How much money did you spend on this? A lavish lunch, no matter how rich you are!"
Lu Ran laughed and said, "Now that I've suddenly become a boss, I have to do something to make people remember me, otherwise who will recognize me?"
"Wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing if I came to the company one day and was stopped at the gate by security?"
Wu Xiaomeng blinked.
"Brother-in-law, you're right."
"Brother-in-law, what's your budget? I'll help you plan it out."
Lu Ran waved his hand: "We don't have a budget, so feel free to pick the most expensive place."
To be honest, Lu Ran was quite excited about being a boss for the first time. People tend to spend money when they're happy, especially when it comes to something like this where he can earn a lot of money without much effort.
Wu Xiaomeng gave a thumbs up.
"Brother-in-law is indeed brother-in-law, so domineering."
"Then I'll really have to order the expensive stuff, okay?"
"Who doesn't like spending money? Even if it's someone else spending it for them," Wu Xiaomeng asked with a grin as she stepped forward.
"Order."
"The password is six zeros."
Wu Xiaomeng then excitedly walked out of the office with Lu Ran's phone in her hand.
Wu Xiaomeng took her phone and went downstairs to the front desk, where she asked, "Hello, sister."
Liu Nini joined Upstream Media a year ago.
With her outstanding appearance and good emotional intelligence, she has made almost no mistakes since becoming a receptionist, and is highly appreciated by her superiors.
Seeing that the person had just arrived with the new boss, he politely nodded and said, "Hello."
Wu Xiaomeng asked, "Sister, do you know how many people are in this company in total? That is, all the people currently working here, including security guards and cleaners."
Liu Nini was taken aback.
"Well... I haven't calculated it precisely, but it's probably around three hundred."
Wu Xiaomeng murmured, "More than three hundred, that should be enough for four hundred people."
"Then let's start with a hundred servings of crispy roasted pigeon, a hundred servings of wild yellow croaker, and a hundred servings of Boston lobster. Oh, and soup too, a hundred servings of stewed chicken soup and a hundred servings of matsutake and ginseng soup."
"For drinks, bring us 100 servings of hand-drip coffee and 100 servings of strawberry milk tea..."
Under Liu Nini's dumbfounded gaze, Wu Xiaomeng's series of actions almost caused the software to crash.
"Oh dear, how come it costs over two hundred thousand? Isn't that too much?"
"Never mind, my brother-in-law said to only order the expensive dishes."
An even more outrageous scene unfolded: Liu Nini witnessed Wu Xiaomeng pay over 200,000 yuan.
What's going on here? Even a banquet wouldn't be this big!
"Wow, my brother-in-law has over six million in savings. He's definitely rich."
Wu Xiaomeng was surprised to see the balance, but then she thought about how her brother-in-law drove his G-Class sports car in rotation, and realized that it might just be the money on one of the cards.
After making the payment, Wu Xiaomeng became worried.
"If I order so many things at once, will anyone accept the order?"
Fortunately, some merchants are still accepting orders, but it may take a while.
After finishing everything, Wu Xiaomeng said to Liu Nini, "Sister, do you have any way to inform the people in the company and tell them not to go out for lunch?"
"Just say that President Lu is treating everyone in the company to a big meal."
Liu Nini was stunned and almost didn't react.
After a moment of hesitation, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll tell them."
The company has a large group chat; she can just mention it in the group.
At first, no one paid attention to Liu Nini's message. A few close colleagues even kindly reminded her not to joke about such things.
In the end, it was Bai Yongxiang who came forward to explain, which finally convinced everyone that the boss had indeed treated them to a meal.
More than two hours later.
When the two trucks stopped outside and asked the security guard to sign for the takeout, the guard was completely dumbfounded.
"Dude, are you kidding me? What kind of kind person would order takeout and have it delivered by truck, two truckloads at that?"
The delivery driver took out his phone and looked at it.
He nodded and said, "This is your company. The higher-ups said everyone gets one, so come and collect it."
The security guard was stunned: "Brother, you're not kidding, are you? This is lobster, yellow croaker, and pigeon; a serving costs several hundred yuan."
The delivery driver said enviously, "Why would I joke with you? Your company leader personally said that your new boss ordered lunch for you. You have no idea, it took several hotels working together to prepare it for you in such a short time. We were exhausted."
"Security guards, cleaning staff, everyone gets a share. Hurry up and call people out to collect them."
