Chapter 1,558: Making an Oolong(2/2)
Foreigners don't care, but they can't hide it from the organization after all.
No, the organization is aware of everything and is ordering him to come back, suspend his duties, reflect, and write an inspection.
They say that the root of the tongue can crush a person to death. This is absolutely true.
Even though Ning Weimin had never offended anyone, these neighbors were not necessarily malicious.
However, this kind of gossip that makes people unable to argue is still spread everywhere and has quite a market.
Within a few days, not to mention all the neighbors in Courtyard No. 2 came to inquire and asked with concern whether he was in trouble.
Even Director Li from the street and the director of the Brocade Box Factory had heard about it and asked someone to tell Ning Weimin that they wanted to recruit people.
The general meaning is that foreigners do not understand talents and it is their loss. If they are really going to be fired, don't lose heart.
Whether it is a street factory or a brocade box factory, as long as he is willing and does not dislike it, he can choose any job.
Even if you want to be the leader, it's not without negotiation.
This made Ning Weimin, who didn't take it seriously at first, extremely surprised and felt very complicated in his heart.
It feels warm and comfortable, but also a bit nonsensical and makes me laugh or cry.
And the most amazing thing is that this is not an isolated incident. Ning Weimin soon discovered that even the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau had misunderstood him.
I have to admit that when I come back this time, there are some people and things that I cannot afford to delay.
For example, donating the bronzes purchased from overseas in the past six months as well as the books, picture albums, calligraphy and paintings that can no longer be preserved on their own to the country is a major event that Ning Weimin cannot be lazy and cannot delay.
According to the rules, before returning, we still have to contact the domestic side through our embassy in Japan about this matter.
So when he came back, within a few days, the Cultural Relics Bureau couldn't wait and took the initiative to invite him.
Since the two parties have already dealt with each other once, they already know each other deeply and have a tacit understanding.
This time, the Cultural Heritage Bureau did not arrange for reporters in a big way, nor did it make any effort to prepare for an awards ceremony. It only sent a small car to pick up people as a courtesy.
Ning Weimin didn't show up either. For the sake of convenience, he wore comfortable and simple clothes and directly sent the donated items to the Cultural Relics Bureau in a trolley suitcase.
As a result, he never expected that the person in charge of the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau would see him as an ordinary person.
It was so different from the Spring Festival when he wore a suit, coat, leather shoes and tie, and looked like a fake foreign devil. He actually misunderstood that he was down and out.
Comparing the precious cultural relics with the national treasure level that he sent, it is estimated that the price of his acquisition must be worth at least tens of thousands of yuan.
The cadre in charge of the reception was filled with emotion and could not control his inner excitement. He almost shed tears on the spot.
Then he held Ning Weimin's hand firmly, thanked him again and again, and asked him sincerely if he would like the Cultural Relics Bureau to do anything for him.
This was so good that Ning Weimin was completely confused on the spot.
He really didn't think there was anything special about these things that could make the other person so happy.
After talking about it for a long time, both parties finally figured it out.
The Cultural Relics Bureau thought that Ning Weimin was so exhausted that he had gone bankrupt by buying cultural relics for the country.
It was just such an inexplicable mess. After that day, Ning Weimin couldn't help but laugh every time he thought about it.
But having said that, making such a joke is still better than nothing.
Because Ning Weimin didn't want fame or rewards, and considering his status as a businessman, the Cultural Relics Bureau felt embarrassed after all, and felt sorry for letting an individual spend so much money on behalf of the country.
Then he adopted a special way to reward him.
After on-site discussions, several people in charge at the site unanimously decided to give Ning Weimin one of the several storefront rooms that Liulichang had not assigned yet.
The rental contract can be signed for fifteen years, and it is even free of rent, so he can do whatever he wants.
In other words, it can be regarded as a reward for his contribution to the country and a thank you for his contribution to the return of overseas cultural relics.
That’s Liulichang. Even the famous overseas cultural and commercial street,
It is also the only place where cultural industries gather in Beijing these days, and its commercial value is self-evident.
Especially in this street, which has just been renovated, all the storefronts and buildings are planned by the state.
It is difficult for a public unit to apply for a shop as a store, let alone a private one.
Such great things that others dream of can be obtained effortlessly from Ning Weimin. This can be regarded as good rewards for good people.
Of course Ning Weimin was very happy, and he would definitely not be stupid enough to refuse and then push it further.
So he was not polite and readily selected a front-facing house with a usable area of about 200 square meters from the drawings marked by the Cultural Relics Bureau.
Although the specific location of this store is not on the main road, it is not bad.
Because it is right opposite the main entrance of Rong Baozhai.
In other words, Ning Weimin will be neighbors with Rong Baozhai from now on.
From now on, anyone who comes out of Congrong Baozhai will see him at the store opposite.
What kind of reputation is Rong Baozhai?
What level of guests are there?
It's beautiful to think about. Isn't this enough for him to be full of expectations and lively?
To be honest, he had already thought about what he could do in the store.
The craft manufacturers in Beijing that he cooperated with all lacked a sales department to display their fine products to the outside world.
Teachers and students at the Academy of Fine Arts also need a window to sell their works.
It just so happens that he can use this store to do such a thing.
In Liulichang, a cultural and commercial district where foreigners gather, he also planted his flag, expanding foreign exchange earnings while also meeting everyone's needs.
How good is this?
Of course, opening a store means opening a store. When he comes to open a store, he must not be as stubborn as most people, saying that selling things means setting up a counter to sell things.
If you want to trade well, you have to be smart.
So seeing that there was no restaurant in Liulichang, he planned to also sell coffee and tea and provide customers with a place to rest.
In this case, it would be better to open a branch in the capital in the name of Huiwentang Bookstore.
The name is a bookstore, but in fact it is a literary cafe to attract customers, selling high-end goods and works of art without being obvious.
