Leng Lie acted like a "fool" for once.
However, knowing that the goods are sold directly from their own factory, the factory price is around 60 yuan per piece.
He was willing to be a complete idiot.
Moreover, the appearance of Bao Rui has solved their problem.
After all, now that the cooperation agreement has been reached in Kyoto, someone still needs to go back and oversee the stock preparation.
Furthermore, Guan Yuxi also planned to discuss more business along the way back, as it would be more convenient to transport goods if she could secure all the routes along the Beijing-Shanghai line.
"Don't worry, Director Xi, don't worry, Assistant Leng, I will definitely get back and relay the message."
But Bao Rui accepted the contract and planned to return to Lengjiagou the next day.
"There's no need to rush. You've come all this way, so you can spend more time with your family."
Guan Yuxi is very understanding and reasonable.
But Bao Rui's eyes darkened, and he forced a smile, saying, "No need, a few days back is enough."
I suspect he might not have a good relationship with his family.
Guan Yuxi then went with him.
"By the way, Director Xi, actually, I know someone who has a lot of connections and can help us get our goods into other stores, it's just that..."
But Bao Rui thought about it and said with some difficulty, "It's just that he's a bit arrogant, so he might not necessarily help us."
He had been to Lengjiagou before, but he was worried that... we might get implicated!
Guan Yuxi and Leng Lie exchanged a glance. Could it be such a coincidence?
"You mean Fangyuan?"
"Yes, does Factory Director Xi know him?"
But Bao Rui scratched his head and then laughed sheepishly, "I forgot, Assistant Leng worked for the archaeological team for so long."
"He was the one who introduced us to these two department stores."
Guan Yuxi explained.
She felt a growing curiosity about Dan Baorui's identity.
Given Fang Yuan's status, he completely ignored Fang Minzhen, his cousin.
However, Bao Rui's words implied that he could be asked for help, suggesting that his family's status and position were not ordinary.
I just don't know what a high-ranking official's son like him would be doing in a place like Lengjiagou.
Even if you're going to the countryside, you don't have to go that far, do you?
What are you thinking about?
Seeing her deep in thought, Leng Lie couldn't help but ask.
Guan Yuxi expressed her suspicions.
Leng Lie shook his head and chuckled, "What business is it of ours what his family does?"
You wouldn't still be thinking of...?
His face darkened.
Yesterday, Guan Yuxi was brought back unconscious, which almost scared him to death. If it happened again, he didn't know if he could still hold back from going crazy.
"Brother Lie, I'm sorry."
Guan Yuxi held his hand and looked at him sincerely.
She admitted that she had just considered seeing the old man one last time.
She felt she had performed terribly the day before yesterday and wanted to try again.
However, what she didn't know was...
Her every word and action that day was recorded by the camera.
The old man scrutinized her every word and action. Cigarette butts littered the ground, and though his eyes were red, he still refused to give up.
***
These past few days, Leng Lie has been accompanying Guan Yuxi around, eating and shopping, and enjoying himself quite leisurely.
If there had been no news of Secretary Song...
Guan Yuxi was even considering heading home.
"If we still haven't heard from Secretary Song in three more days, let's go back."
Guan Yuxi made up her mind.
She couldn't help with official matters, let alone the power struggles at the highest levels.
Leng Lie was delighted. "Okay, I'll go buy the tickets first. We can stroll back together and see if we can get any more receipts."
Leng Liangyu hasn't come back since her last visit.
Fang Minzhen and Leng Feng visited Guan Yuxi several times, but they also mentioned Fang Yuan frequently during their conversations.
Guan Yuxi told them about how Leng Lie met Fang Yuan in the archaeological team.
The two were initially quite enthusiastic towards her, but later Fang Yuan stopped coming.
Guan Yuxi and Leng Lie didn't want to mention him either, so they gave up on the idea and stopped coming.
I told you to ignore them.
They're all snobs, why waste your energy on them!
Leng Lie complained to Guan Yuxi.
Every time that mother and daughter came, they would take up half a day of his wife's time, and he had long been annoyed by them.
It's good that they're not coming now.
Guan Yuxi shook her head and chuckled, pointing at him and saying, "You're just saying one thing and meaning another."
She clearly wanted to know about Uncle Yu, but she didn't ask anything.
Let's go see him.
Every time Fang Minzhen and her daughter came, Leng Lie would unconsciously look behind them.
He thought he had kept it hidden, but he couldn't escape Guan Yuxi's eyes.
"No, I'm not going. What's so interesting about him?"
Leng Lie unsurprisingly refused.
Guan Yuxi said helplessly, "I wanted to deliver clothes to Sister Feng, but I couldn't find them the other day."
Besides, Aunt Fang and the others aren't snobbish; they probably just ran out of things to say and that's why they didn't come.
Although she and Leng Feng felt an instant connection upon their first meeting.
That's because Leng Feng brought up her and her lover's issues to ask her for advice.
She's already said everything she needed to say and advise; she can't keep bringing up other people's privacy every time they meet.
Therefore, after exhausting all the topics of conversation these past few times, they naturally won't be in contact again in the short term.
Although Leng Lie was still reluctant, he was thinking that he would be leaving Kyoto the next day.
I also think it would be nice to say hello.
However, as soon as the two stepped out of their house, they were stopped by more than a dozen people in military uniforms.
"Are you Comrade Guan Yuxi? Please come with us, our leader wants to see you!"
