Xie Yunshu took the drawings Jiang Ying gave her and went to find Xue Bing, the chief designer of Erjian. In the whole Haicheng, the only person she could get close to was this great designer.

It was time to get off work, and it would be bad to ask people to help for nothing, so Xie Yunshu prepared to invite Xue Bing to a restaurant for dinner.

"Don't be so polite. Let's go to the office and take a look at the blueprints. I can offer my opinions and I will certainly not be stingy with my words."

Xue Bing was wearing a black quilted gown. He adjusted his nose and eyes, and said with a gentle smile, "I've been to your building once. The design style inside is amazing."

Being praised by the accomplished designer, Xie Yunshu was happy: "Then let's just go to Zhuanglou for dinner. Boss Zhu promised me that he would give me a discount if I spend money there."

Zhuanglou had just opened for business. Zhu Xingwang was good at management and publicity, and the business was booming. Although the food was a bit expensive, it was very popular.

Xue Bingxiao didn't refuse anymore and smiled: "Then let's go now."

Zhuang Building was a few streets away from Erjian Building. Both of them rode bicycles and talked all the way to Zhuang Building.

The environment inside is quiet, the people who come to eat are of high quality and don't make loud noises, but it's a good place to talk.

They had one meat and one vegetable, one soup and two servings of rice, which cost them a total of more than 20 yuan. Xue Bing felt a little embarrassed: "The price of food here is still a bit high."

Xie Yunshu sighed: "But their business is good, and everyone just wants to fill their stomachs."

She thinks it's expensive, but opening a restaurant like this really makes money. In the future, her new restaurant must be more high-end. Song Shanchuan's cooking skills are better than the chefs here!

Xue Bing poured her some tea and said with a smile: "This shows the importance of design in practical applications. This design style alone adds value to the hotel. When people come to consume, they are paying for the design invisibly."

If it were a roadside stall, this meal would cost at most eight dollars.

Xie Yunshu quickly got down to business: "That's why I was thinking that if the factory expansion is done in a conventional way, wouldn't there be some highlights in the design?"

If everyone has the same style, then what is the designer to do? They can just take the original drawings and design them directly.

Xue Bing's eyes flashed with a smile: "Have you ever thought about it, since it's a clothing factory, what does the operator care about most?"

Xie Yunshu pondered over these words, and his eyes gradually brightened.

She has an open mind to learn and is like a sponge, eager to absorb knowledge from all aspects. Xue Bing appreciates her attitude even more. During the communication, he found that Xie Yunshu is very smart and can understand design very quickly.

The two men gathered together to discuss the blueprints. The waiter misunderstood their relationship and tried to sell them dishes: "Comrade, we have a new dish called Fuqi Feipian. Young couples love it. Would you like to try it? We are having a promotion now. You can get a 20% discount. It only costs 8 yuan per plate."

Xue Bingyi was not embarrassed and politely refused the waiter, then smiled and said to Xie Yunshu: "The boss here really knows how to do business."

Xie Yunshu knew that Xue Bing was married and the couple had a good relationship, so she didn't feel uncomfortable at all. She joked, "It's my fault. I ordered too few dishes."

Xue Bing smiled and shook his head: "Still looking at the blueprint."

They were discussing heatedly, and Xie Yunshu was writing and drawing with a pen, recording his inspiration at any time, and he didn't pay attention to the new guest who came in.

The first thing Shen Subai saw when he came in was Xie Yunshu, but she didn't look up at him.

A few people followed him, one of whom was Chinese. A waiter immediately took them to the private room: "Sir, please come in."

He has a big contract to discuss today. If the deal goes well, Haicheng Trade Company will be officially established. In the future, his business focus will gradually shift from Zhucheng to Haicheng, and he will only let Meng Yining be in charge of the business there.

Xie Yunshu and Xue Bing were talking and laughing, but they kept the proper distance between opposite sexes.

Shen Subai paused for a moment, turned around and gestured to the people behind him, "The special dishes here taste good, you can try them."

The group entered the box, but Xie Yunshu didn't notice.

The Chinese man, who spoke not very fluent Mandarin, smiled and said, "Bai, do you have xiaolongbao?"

Shen Subai replied to him in English: "Of course."

He was slightly surprised: "You can speak English?"

Doing business in Taiwan, of course I learned some things by myself.

Shen Subai smiled modestly: "Just a little bit of fur."

The Chinese shrugged his shoulders and said, "But your speech is very standard."

The middleman 廩 followed up with a greeting: "Our boss Shen is very capable. It is absolutely right to choose to cooperate with him."

The dinner went smoothly. The Chinese were not used to drinking white wine, but were very interested in jasmine tea. They kept saying it was delicious: "This is what we sell. It's convenient and tastes good."

Chen Subai put the tea he brought with him on the table: "You only drink one of them. Green tea has always sold well in Europe and the United States. As long as there are channels, I believe there will be no worries about sales."

"Bai, if I cooperate with you, I will definitely make a fortune."

Because we didn't drink, the business discussion lasted just over an hour after dinner. The Chinese were very satisfied and both parties signed the contract immediately.

When he came out of the box, Shen Subai looked over there and saw Xie Yunshu and Xue Bing still sitting together with their heads down, talking about something. He frowned slightly, but did not go forward and sent a few people out first: "I am very happy today, welcome to Haicheng next time."

The Chinese man got in the car and left. A middleman breathed a sigh of relief: "I didn't expect it to be so smooth. This Chinese man didn't even drink. I thought he was up to no good."

"Everyone has a different culture." Shen Subai smiled faintly: "They pay more attention to efficiency."

Another person smiled and patted Shen Subai on the shoulder: "If he doesn't want to drink, let's go drink. Let's go to Aunt Li's restaurant down the street. We can drink a lot for a few dollars!"

Shen Subai pointed to Xie Yunshu's side and said, "My wife is here right now. She's going to drink with you guys. I'm afraid she won't be able to get in at night."

Several men were stunned for a moment, then laughed at the same time: "No, our Mr. Shen is afraid of his wife?"

"My wife is a bit good, but there's nothing I can do." He smiled helplessly: "Sorry, I'll treat you next time if I have the chance."

The deal was done, and they had money to earn, so they were naturally easy to talk to: "You're welcome, since Mrs. Shen is here, we won't bother you anymore."

The group left in a line. Shen Subai walked towards Xie Yunshu with his arm around his sleeve, and interrupted the conversation between the two people: "Yunshu, don't you want to introduce yourself?"

He didn't know Xue Bing.

Xie Yunshu raised his head in surprise, then blinked: “Shen Subai, why are you here?”

Normally she called him Shen Subai because she was used to calling him by his name. But for some reason, this name, which did not represent any intimate meaning, made Shen Subai feel a little uncomfortable.
