Long Fei had not known Xie Qingxiao for long, but the Xie Qingxiao he knew was a person with strong leadership and self-confidence.
So when he discussed with Xie Qingxiao about opening a store and Xie Qingxiao said he would come back to discuss it with his wife, as his wife was the one in charge of the braised food business, Long Fei was very surprised.
He didn't think what Xie Qingxiao said was true.
Xie Qingxiao seems to be such a strong and capable person, how could he be inferior to others?
What's more, he is inferior to a woman?
So he thought that Xie Qingxiao was probably just looking for a reason to consider his proposal to open a shop.
As a result, the scene in front of him... Was what Xie Qingxiao said true? Was his wife really the boss of their braised food business?
Long Fei sat down with a bit of doubt about his life.
Lin Xiangyi ignored Long Fei's strange expression and smiled as she took out the contract and handed it to him: "Brother Long, this is our contract. Take a look at it. If you have any objections, you can raise them and we can discuss it."
"Okay," Long Fei quickly adjusted himself, took the contract from Lin Xiangyi's hand, and became more and more surprised the more he looked at it.
Although he was the leader of small traders in Chenchong County, he also came from a poor family.
He had been in jail for several years for speculation and profiteering. After he was released, he couldn't find a job, so he went back to his old ways to make a living.
Because he was brave, a group of people followed him, but in fact he had not received much education and had no cultural knowledge.
He couldn't recognize all the words in the contract that Lin Xiangyi gave him. He could only piece together the words he knew to guess the general meaning... This contract was too official and formal!
Long Fei was secretly surprised. When Xie Qingxiao went to him today to talk about signing a contract, he thought he was making a fuss and it was just a formality.
Now it seems...if he breaches the contract, he will have to pay compensation and go to jail?
"Brother Long, is there any problem?" Lin Xiangyi asked hurriedly when she saw Long Fei's expression froze.
"No, no problem," Long Fei said, a little embarrassed, closing the contract, "Sister-in-law, did you draft this contract?"
Lin Xiangyi nodded: "Yes."
"...You are really talented," Long Fei laughed dryly.
"Thank you," Lin Xiangyi laughed, "Then Brother Long, if you have any objections, you can raise them."
"Ahem!" Long Fei cleared his throat, closed the contract, and said, "I won't read it for now. I'll go back and look at it. If there's anything unreasonable, I'll come back and discuss it with you guys!"
“No need to be so troublesome, right?” Lin Xiangyi thought that there was still time, so he could just watch it directly, and she could explain it to him if he didn’t understand.
Xie Qingxiao stopped her and said, "Wife, Brother Long said he wants to go back and take a look, so let him go back and take a look. There is no rush to sign the contract."
"Yes!" Long Fei was afraid that Lin Xiangyi would ask him to watch it on the spot, so he immediately said: "I am not the only one who wants to open a store. I have partners. I also need to go back and discuss such a big matter as signing a contract with them."
"Is that so?" Lin Xiangyi said, "That's fine too. Brother Long, you can discuss it with your partners and come to us if you have any questions. In general, it is still very cost-effective for you to join us. Although our name is used, the operation and management rights and profits belong to you... In addition to providing goods, we can also provide some training and technical support if you need it... In addition, there is no need to pay a franchise fee..."
Lin Xiangyi briefly introduced the benefits of joining the franchise, and Long Fei and his younger brothers nodded continuously as they listened.
Especially Long Fei, the look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Xiangyi was no longer the kind but contemptuous look he had just had. On the contrary, the look he gave Lin Xiangyi was full of admiration and respect.
After the discussion, Long Fei and his brothers said they wanted to go back.
"Are you in such a hurry?" Lin Xiangyi was surprised and tried to dissuade him, "Brother Long, my mother is already cooking. Why don't you finish eating before you come back?"
When Xie's mother, who was cooking in the kitchen, heard that Long Fei and the others were going back, she poked her head out and said, "Ah Long, are you guys going back? The meal will be ready soon. Eat here before you go back!"
"No," Long Fei said with a smile, "We still have to go back to Chenchong County. We have to catch the last bus back. If we eat, we will miss the bus."
After hearing this, Xie's mother and Lin Xiangyi did not force it.
Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi saw them out the door.
Before leaving, Long Fei said to Lin Xiangyi with an apologetic look: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry. I apologize to you for my prejudice just now and for saying some inappropriate words..."
Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi both understood what he meant.
Lin Xiangyi smiled and said, "It's okay, it just means I'm really beautiful! I have to thank you for praising my beauty!"
"Hahaha," Long Fei laughed, and looked up to Lin Xiangyi a little more: "Ah Xiao, you really married a good wife. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also so capable and smart!"
Xie Qingxiao's eyebrows were full of pride: "My wife is naturally the best."
"My man is not bad either," Lin Xiangyi replied with a smile.
"Yes, yes, you two are both capable and smart, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, you are a perfect match!" Long Fei agreed with a smile.
...After Long Fei and the other man left, Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi turned around and went home.
Lin Xiangyi asked in surprise: "Didn't you say they came here to sign the contract? Why did they say they had to go back and discuss it with their partners after getting the contract?"
Xie Qingxiao put his hand on Lin Xiangyi's shoulder. Hearing this, he lowered his eyes and glanced at Lin Xiangyi, and said with some amusement: "You can't guess?"
Lin Xiangyi glared at Xie Qingxiao. If she knew, why would she need to ask him? "Why?"
"I guess he didn't recognize all the words on the contract," Xie Qingxiao said. Through his frequent contacts with Long Fei, he probably knew that his cultural level was not high.
When Long Fei took the contract and took a look at it, a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face. He guessed that this was probably the reason.
Thinking of this, Xie Qingxiao snorted with a smile.
He went to talk to Long Fei about joining and the contract, but Long Fei didn't take it seriously.
Do you really think that he and his wife are just playing house when doing business with him using real money?
Lin Xiangyi thought of many reasons, but this was the only one she hadn't thought of.
But think about it, those who are doing business nowadays are those who have no jobs and no other ways to make a living, so it is normal for them to have little education.
Thinking of this, she began to admire Long Fei: "It is amazing that he can become the leader of the merchants in Chenchong County."
Xie Qingxiao nodded in agreement: "Lack of education does not mean lack of ability. Long Fei has both courage and brains."
Just like just now, Long Fei clearly didn’t understand the contract, but he didn’t say it directly. He cautiously insisted on going back to discuss it with his partners.
Knowing that he had misunderstood Lin Xiangyi, he apologized to her neatly. I dare not say how much this bold and flexible person will achieve in the future, but he will definitely not live too badly.
Lin Xiangyi nodded in agreement.
