Chapter 295 Reward

Director Wang quickly asked, "But what? Tell me."

"I can draw the design for you, and I can do it in the future, but if you sell my design, I want 20% of the sales." Ye Qian didn't ask for much. She wouldn't ask for too much, but she also didn't want anyone to take advantage of her. Besides, there were so many styles of furniture in later generations, so it would be no problem to draw for a while.

After Ye Qian finished speaking, Director Wang thought about it. He also understood that if Ye Qian gave it to him for free, he would still be a little hesitant to accept it. This was the best. After thinking about it, he agreed: "Okay, no problem, let's sign the contract."

Since we are here now, we might as well get it done in one go, otherwise we won’t be able to find anyone when they leave.

Ye Qian also quickly agreed, "Okay."

Director Wang left the office to prepare the contract. Ye Qian looked at Gu Jinyan and asked, "Twenty percent is not too little." In fact, she wanted to say thirty percent, but it would not be good to be too greedy.

Gu Jinyan smiled and said, "Okay, 20% is quite a bit. It's 20% of the total sales of the furniture you designed. If you do the math yourself, it's quite a bit. After all, you don't care about anything else but the design."

Ye Qian thought so too and nodded: "Yeah, that's about right." This way their family had another source of income.

As the two talked, the children sat quietly watching without interrupting or making any noise. After a while, Director Wang came over with the contract. He sorted out each item clearly according to what the two had agreed upon, and then wrote it down. This made Director Wang sweat all over his forehead. His hair, which was not much to begin with, looked even thinner because of the sweat.

After the two of them thought about it for a while, they finally signed the contract before lunch. According to the contract, Ye Qian drew the design drawings for the factory. She also left her school phone number and home address for easy correspondence, and her design drawings would be sent directly to the factory by mail.

Since it was a cooperative relationship, Director Wang did not hesitate and directly collected 1,000 yuan from Ye Qian for the cost share and ordered all the furniture she wanted. The factory had no other orders, and the craftsmen had almost finished chatting every day, so it was time for them to get busy. It was a good opportunity for them to practice with this set of designs.

So with everyone's cooperation, all the furniture was delivered to the yard half a month later. Of course, this is a later story.

After leaving the factory, the few of them asked Gu Jinyan to drive them to have lunch. The factory director wanted them to stay in the factory for lunch, but they had already made plans, so the director was not willing to keep them any longer.

Gu Jinyan drove them directly to a restaurant that they had inquired about beforehand. As soon as Ning Ning got in the car, she couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, finally I can talk. I was so depressed just now."

Ye Qian smiled and asked, "Then why didn't you say anything just now? The three of you were so quiet just now."

Ning Ning said to Ye Qian with a proud look on her face, "Because Mom was busy just now, if I spoke, it would disturb Mom, so I didn't say anything." After Ning Ning finished speaking, she glanced at Ran Ran and Xi Xi beside her. The three children nodded to each other, "Yes, be good and don't disturb Mom's work."

Ye Qian's heart softened instantly, as if she had forgotten how much she disliked these three children yesterday. The more she disliked them yesterday, the more she liked them today: "You three are truly your sweet little treasures. I'll reward you with a little extra food later."

"Ah, but we can only eat this much. We can't eat more." Ning Ning touched her belly and frowned, saying, "What should we do?"

Ranran looked at Ningning as if she was stupid, and said helplessly: "You can't even pack? You can't even remember such a simple thing."

Ning Ning immediately smiled when she heard Ran Ran's words. She sat up straight and said to Ran Ran, "That's right, brother, you're really smart. Just pack it up."

Xixi thought his two brothers were so stupid and didn't want to listen to their silly conversation anymore. He said coldly: "You can't finish the food even if you pack it up. There will be new delicious food tomorrow. If you can't finish it, you will have to throw it away. It's a waste of food." A basin of cold water poured over the two brothers from head to toe, chilling them to the bone.

Ning Ning was a little dissatisfied. What kind of reward was this? She immediately refused and said to Ye Qian, "Mom, your reward is not good. We need to change it."

Ye Qian was trying to suppress her laughter, but when Ning Ning suddenly called her out, she was a little stunned for a moment, "Ah."

"Why didn't you three think of eating snacks? We can buy some and eat them slowly." No matter how smart they are, their thinking is still that of a child.

The three children suddenly realized, "Oh, that's right."

Ye Qian couldn't hold it back any longer and burst out laughing, "Hahaha...haha..."

The car stopped near the store and several people walked into the store. As usual, they ordered 4 servings of noodles with soybean paste. Gu Jinyan said that this store also sold braised pork, so they ordered two more bowls and a few more buns. They had a very satisfying lunch and everyone loved the taste.

They went to eat roast duck again in the evening. The next day, Gu Jinyan had to go to work, so Ye Qian didn't disturb him and took the children out to play. After playing for two consecutive days, Ye Qian remembered her business and called Wang Qiong to make an appointment to meet the next day.

Wang Qiong was extremely excited when she received Ye Qian's call. She had been forced to do nothing by her grandfather these past two days. She was clamoring to see Ye Qian, but Ye Qian didn't call her, and she didn't know how to contact her. Just when she was getting annoyed, Ye Qian's call came. It was like saving her life, "Okay, let's meet at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."

At the place they had agreed on, Wang Qiong hung up the phone contentedly. Grandpa Wang leaned over, looked at her with a smile, and asked, "Who is it? Is it Ye Qian who wrote the book?"

"yes."

Grandpa Wang excitedly sat down next to Wang Qiong and asked, "I asked you to invite people to our house. Did you invite them?" Wang Qiong didn't say anything. Grandpa Wang thought that Wang Qiong had forgotten, so he asked, "Did you forget? No, I've been telling you every day, how could you forget?" Grandpa Wang felt that Wang Qiong did it on purpose.

Grandpa Wang's feeling was not wrong. Wang Qiong was just saying it on purpose. "We have something important to do tomorrow. Besides, I need to ask her. She will definitely come, but she has a big family. It depends on how she arranges it." After hearing Wang Qiong's explanation, Grandpa Wang's temper, which was about to explode, was suppressed. He smiled and said, "Yes, this is Grandpa's fault. I was too excited. Then you can ask for Grandpa when we meet tomorrow."

Grandpa Wang touched the novel Wang Qiong had brought back after he finished speaking. Ever since he got the novel, he'd skipped meals and tea, staying up all night for three days straight to finish it. This behavior worried Wang's mother, who complained to Wang Qiong more than once: "Your grandpa still thinks he's young. He's so old, yet he's so engrossed in a novel, refusing to drink tea or eat. Isn't he afraid of ruining his health?"
