Chapter 128 Fenghua Textile Factory Annual Meeting

"I'm not with her, but I know where she is." Lu Jingyou raised his wrist to check his watch and steered the wheel expertly. "Well, I'll go over and tell her to go back and wait for you."

"Okay, thank you then." Qin Shuang hung up the phone suspiciously.

"I'll take you home right now." Lu Jingyou looked at her in the rearview mirror. "To avoid unnecessary trouble, let's just say this!"

Of course he was not afraid of letting Qin Shuang know that he was with Su Jiaojiao.

But Su Jiaojiao would have to explain everything when she goes back, which is too troublesome.

"Okay." Su Jiaojiao understood.

"I'll also be attending the annual meeting at Fenghua Textile Factory today. See you later." As they entered the city, the traffic on the road gradually increased, and Lu Jingyou slowed down. "Why did Director Qin think of taking you to the annual meeting?"

The annual meeting of Fenghua Textile Factory is held on the third floor of the China Travel Service Building.

He just went downstairs.

If Qin Shuang hadn't called him, he would have taken her there right now.

"I have an order for fabrics from Fenghua Textile Factory..." Su Jiaojiao was speaking when she felt a dull pain in her lower abdomen. She thought to herself, oh no, her period has come. She was in a hurry to go out today and forgot to take precautions in advance. It didn't matter that she was wearing black pants, but the important thing was that she was sitting on his car mat, which happened to be white.

She quietly took out a tissue from her bag and wiped the car mat where she had sat. It wasn't much, but there was still a little bit that couldn't be wiped off.

Seeing that she had fallen silent, Lu Jingyou turned around and looked at her: "What's wrong with you?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu..." No matter how calm Su Jiaojiao was, she couldn't remain calm when faced with something like this. She said awkwardly, "I stained your car seat."

Lu Jingyou was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted, a smile welling up in his eyes: "It's okay, I'll take care of it."

Su Jiaojiao wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

So embarrassing!

"Call Director Qin and tell him you're not feeling well and that you don't need to attend the Fenghua Textile Factory's annual meeting." Lu Jingyou handed her the phone. Su Jiaojiao waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I can handle it."

She didn't want to go back on her word.

You have to go to work during your menstrual period.

When getting out of the car, Su Jiaojiao still took down the seat cushion: "Mr. Lu, wait until I buy a new one and then send it back to you."

This kind of cushion is sold in department stores.

She had to show something.

"It's just a small matter, don't take it to heart." Lu Jingyou opened the car window, took the car mat from her hand, and placed it on the passenger seat, with a smile in his eyes, "Go back and prepare!"

Unexpectedly, his former smart and courageous female assistant.

She also has this feminine side, which is quite interesting.

Su Jiaojiao didn't know what to say.

She couldn't argue with him over a cushion.

At 4:30 in the afternoon, Qin Shuang and Ju Peijun arrived. Both were dressed formally in suits and ties. Qin Shuang was still wearing a light gray suit, with long, wavy hair that looked natural and lively. She wore light makeup and looked smart and capable. She also brought a small black suit for Su Jiaojiao. "Let's go early and try to come back early."

Su Jiaojiao changed into the small suit that Qin Shuang brought, combed her hair into a bun, looked in the mirror, and looked very professional.

On the way, Qin Shuang asked her, "Did you go to Century Garden to look at houses today?"

"Well, I left your phone number." Su Jiaojiao said, "They said they would call you when it's time to pay the down payment."

"I've heard your mother talk about it. The house in Century Garden is pretty good. You might consider it." Qin Shuang rummaged through her bag, took out a small mirror and fixed her hair. "I wanted to go take a look, but I'm too busy at the factory. Which floor did you buy?"

"There's a network office on the first floor," Su Jiaojiao answered truthfully. Ju Peijun, steering, exclaimed, "That's going to cost a lot of money!"

"You can get a loan, uncle." Su Jiaojiao said with a smile, "Uncle Ju, you might also consider it."

"When I came here, I told him to go look at the houses in Century Garden, and he said he'd think about it." Qin Shuang took out the flashing mobile phone from her bag, took a look at it, and put it back in. "You see, you're not as decisive as our Jiao Jiao."

Lu Jiaping sent her a text message saying that he had reserved a house for her in Century Jiayuan.

When the house is handed over, someone will deliver the key to her and explain that this is the child's wish. The child does not want her to live in a crowded dormitory. The child will also participate in the subsequent decoration, so she doesn't need to worry about it.

"I'll go check it out tomorrow." Ju Peijun chuckled, "I was pretty busy today too. I sent Mr. Lu to the airport and went to Mo City. I just got back and I'm here with you to attend the annual meeting!"

When Lu Jiaping was mentioned, Qin Shuang and Su Jiaojiao fell silent.

The snack street is not far from the China Travel Hotel, only a five-minute drive away.

Ju Peijun was the driver and did not go up with them. Qin Shuang took Su Jiaojiao to the door to sign in, and then went up to the private room on the third floor. There was soft music playing in the room, a red carpet was laid, and a long row of tables on both sides were placed, filled with wine, drinks and various snacks.

Park Minxi had arrived earlier and was chatting with someone. When she saw Qin Shuang, she immediately came over, greeted her warmly, and said a lot of polite words.

He brought an interpreter with him, a handsome young man with a standard accent and who translated very well.

Su Jiaojiao felt that he looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him. She heard Park Minxi call him Li Mingrui, and after thinking about it carefully, she still couldn't remember where she had seen him.

With him around, Su Jiaojiao just listened and didn't help translate. After all, she was not a professional and her level was not as high as others. Park Minxi praised them for being beautiful and capable, but Qin Shuang just laughed it off. She only cared about the quality and price of the fabric and was not impressed by these nice words.

Chen Mei was there too. She was wearing work clothes and was leading a few young girls to stand by the beverage table, placing drinks and arranging fruit plates and snacks.

Seeing Su Jiaojiao looking over here, Chen Mei smiled at her, seeming to hesitate whether to go up and say hello to her.

Su Jiaojiao pretended not to see Chen Mei and walked away from her.

Whether she is poor or rich, she doesn't want to associate with someone like Chen Mei who flatters the powerful and looks down on the weak.

Park Minxi and Qin Shuang chatted for a while, and guests arrived one after another. Park Minxi was busy entertaining other guests. Perhaps because Qin Shuang was too dazzling, people came over with wine glasses from time to time to chat with her.

Qin Shuang just smiled slightly and had no intention of meeting new customers. She took Su Jiaojiao to the corner of the private room near the stairs to look at fabric samples.

The fabrics produced by Fenghua Textile Factory are displayed on sample racks, colorful and eye-opening.

Qin Shuang was very interested in the bamboo cotton produced by their factory: "This fabric is very breathable. It is very suitable for making short-sleeved shirts like yours. It will definitely be popular in the market."

Thinking of this, Qin Shuang asked her, "How are the sales of your batch of short-sleeved shirts?"

"It hasn't been sold yet!" Su Jiaojiao knew a little about this slub cotton. She looked at the Korean labels on the fabric ingredients and said, "This fabric has a cotton content of up to 95 percent, won't pill, and has a good market appeal."

There were also some leather materials on the sample rack, which interested Su Jiaojiao very much.

The 1990s was the time when leather jackets were all the rage, and even in Jiao County, many leather factories of all sizes emerged. In that era, owning a leather jacket was a very cool thing.

Leather jackets became popular in the 1990s and only gradually faded from the historical stage in the 2000s.

In her previous life, when Su Jiaojiao was selling goods in the clothing store in front of the Jiali Garment Factory, she was seconded to the Natus Leather Factory next door for half a month to help with packing and shipping. The owner of the Natus Leather Factory had business dealings with the Jiali Garment Factory. He knew Su Jiaojiao and they were considered acquaintances. He paid her 20 yuan a day and gave her a small sheepskin vest, which she wore for many years.

As long as the price of the leather is right, processing is not a problem, and style is not a problem.

There is no problem with sales.

Seeing Su Jiaojiao's interest in the leather materials, Qin Shuang stepped forward to take a look and said disapprovingly, "Our factory only uses flatbed machines, so we can't make leather jackets. Their presser feet are different from ours. Besides, leather jackets are beautiful, but they're only for winter wear. They won't last long in spring and autumn."

"If we can't do it, we can find another factory to do it." Su Jiaojiao saw that the quality of these leather materials was okay, but the price was a little expensive. They were all high-quality cowhide and sheepskin. It was okay to make high-end leather jackets, but the cost would be too high for mid-range and low-end ones. Now Jiali Garment Factory was fully focused on taking orders from Jiahe Group, so even if it could make leather jackets, it couldn't do it.

She still planned to ask Liu Wenjie about the market price of ordinary leather materials.

She could still sell down jackets during the winter vacation, but the prerequisite was that she had to rent a house from the Wujiaohua Company. Even if she rented a house, there was no guarantee that those high-quality customers from the Cadre Continuing Education School would come to support her.

Leather jackets definitely won't sell well in the snack street, but they can sell well in Hualian Department Store. She can just rent a temporary stall there. Liu Ying said that the leather jackets on the first floor of Hualian Department Store are very popular, so if they don't sell well, she can sell them wholesale.

As for the outlets in Century Garden, don’t even think about it this year. There is still empty space everywhere and it is obviously not popular for business.

As they were talking, Li Mingrui came over with two glasses of wine. He handed them to Qin Shuang and Su Jiaojiao with a smile. He said to Su Jiaojiao in Korean, "Miss Su, nice to meet you."

"It's my honor to meet Mr. Li." Su Jiaojiao took the wine glass from his hand and stepped behind Qin Shuang. "This is Director Qin of our Jiali Garment Factory."

"Hello, Director Qin. Mr. Park is discussing business and asked me to entertain you two." Li Mingrui switched to Chinese and clinked glasses with each of them. Qin Shuang smiled and asked, "Mr. Li, how long have you been at Fenghua Textile Factory? Why haven't I seen you before?"

"I've just been here for a month," Li Mingrui replied, then asked Su Jiaojiao in Korean, "I heard that Miss Su speaks fluent Korean. I wonder which university she graduated from?"

The elevator door next to them opened, and Lu Jingyou and Qi Heng walked out side by side.

The two of them just happened to hear Su Jiaojiao say to Li Mingrui in Korean: "I'm self-taught. Please give me your guidance if there are any shortcomings."

Qi Heng understands Korean.

He was so shocked that his jaw dropped. He said to Lu Jingyou, "Su Jiaojiao just said that she taught herself Korean. How can she speak fluently if she taught herself?"
