Chapter 333 There is a Love
There was no queue. Shen Jingmo came out of the breakfast shop quickly, carrying large and small bags of things.
"I was afraid you wouldn't be used to some of Kyoto's special breakfasts, so I bought some ordinary soy milk and fried dough sticks, as well as steamed dumplings, beef patties, and the most classic sesame buns and tofu pudding." Shen Jingmo looked around and had no place to put the breakfast.
"Give it to me." Song Zhiyuan freed one hand and took it.
"There are only two of us. Can we finish all this?"
"I wanted you to try them all, so I only bought a little bit of each." Shen Jingmo restarted the car and drove towards a remote riverside.
Song Zhiyuan said with a heavy expression, "I will stay here for a few more days, so I can taste it slowly."
I’m afraid it won’t be so easy to resolve Minister Qian’s issue.
If this matter is not handled properly, I cannot return to Linjiang for the time being.
Shen Jingmo drove the car to a remote place, and the two of them placed breakfast on a bench and sat on the ground without any image.
Chen Jingmo opened the steamed buns and beef buns and placed them in front of Song Zhiyuan, allowing her to choose.
There are still many things to deal with in Linjiang. If everything goes well here, Song Zhiyuan will not stay in the capital for long.
Shen Jingmo ate his steamed buns and asked tentatively, "Is the cooperation that Yuanyuan is negotiating not going well?"
Before Song Zhiyuan could answer Shen Jingmo's question, her cell phone rang at an inopportune time. Song Zhiyuan answered the call in front of Shen Jingmo without any hesitation.
"Director, I knocked on your door, and the housekeeping staff said you didn't come back last night."
After Xiao Zhang finished speaking nervously, he asked tentatively, "Director, are you okay? Are Minister Qian and the others trying to harm you?"
The first thing Xiao Zhang did after sobering up was to check on Song Zhiyuan's safety.
Especially after hearing from the waiter that the director did not come back all night, Xiao Zhang was almost upset to death.
I shouldn't have listened to the director and left last night. Even though I was drunk, I could still stay with the director to avoid any accidents.
If anything unexpected happens to the director, he won't have to go back to the Ministry of Agriculture.
"No, I ran into some reporters last night, so I left the hotel first, leaving Minister Qian and the others alone in the private room. Please give them a call later to express our apologies and arrange another meeting time."
After this incident, Minister Qian would definitely make things even more difficult for them.
Hearing this, Xiao Zhang's heart finally settled down. "I know, Director. Where are you now? Do you want me to pick you up?"
"No need. I just met an old friend to chat with. I'll be back soon." After saying that, Song Zhiyuan hung up the phone.
Without any suspicion, Xiao Zhang acted according to Song Zhiyuan's instructions after hanging up the phone.
Song Zhiyuan pinched the sesame crispy cake and took small bites. "The cooperation isn't going too smoothly. Minister Qian doesn't seem to be very sincere about cooperating. Instead, he's deliberately making things difficult for me. I'll have to stay here a little longer this time."
Last night, Song Zhiyuan thought about other plans.
If they really can't reach an agreement with Minister Qian, they can only look for another market, but cooperation with the government is their first choice.
Shen Jingmo mentioned casually, "Yuanyuan can also consider a two-pronged approach."
"The Internet market is being worked on by other colleagues in the department." Song Zhiyuan didn't fully understand the meaning of Shen Jingmo's words.
Song Zhiyuan's mouth was full of crumbs from the sesame pancakes she had eaten. Shen Jingmo stood up, took out some tissue paper from the car, and handed it to Song Zhiyuan, signaling her with his eyes.
Song Zhiyuan looked at Shen Jingmo's expression in confusion and asked, "What's wrong?"
"You've got food all over your face, just like a little kitten." Chen Jingmo lovingly took out a piece of paper, came forward and carefully wiped Song Zhiyuan's face a few times.
Song Zhiyuan's hand holding the sesame cake suddenly tightened. When Shen Jingmo withdrew his hand, Song Zhiyuan immediately avoided it and turned his eyes away.
Shen Jingmo then explained what he had just said, "Yuanyuan, when I said two-pronged approach, I didn't mean for you to expand the market separately, but I was referring to Minister Qian."
"What do you mean?" Song Zhiyuan didn't understand what Shen Jingmo meant for a moment.
A pair of eyes stared at the man in front of her with a desire for knowledge.
The man, who had been tossed around all night, had wrinkled clothes that made him look a little disheveled, but it was hard to conceal his noble aura.
Shen Jingmo said truthfully, "Minister Qian is not as clean as he seems. Sometimes, if you want to promote cooperation, you need to use some tricks."
When Shen Jingmo saw Minister Qian's photo, he didn't feel anything. But after hearing Minister Qian's name, Shen Jingmo couldn't help but think of a relationship that Minister Qian had with a female star.
At that time, the female star took advantage of her backing to offend people everywhere in the circle, causing many artists in the circle to know about it.
Even Shen Jingmo, who usually doesn't eat melons, has heard about those things.
Later, paparazzi photographed the female star and her backers entering and leaving various entertainment venues.
Due to the status of his backer, the paparazzi did not dare to release the photos he took for reporting. After a long time, the paparazzi failed to sell the photos, and was finally ridiculed by his peers for a long time.
While the two were talking, the agent sent the photos over.
Shen Jingmo gave Song Zhiyuan the photos taken by the paparazzi at that time.
In order to answer the phone, Song Zhiyuan stuffed the remaining half of the steamed bun into her mouth, and her cheeks were stuffed so hard that she looked like a little hamster.
Song Zhiyuan took a tissue to wipe the oil off her fingertips, then held the phone in both hands. After seeing the content of the photo, Song Zhiyuan looked at Chen Jingmo hesitantly, her eyes revealing hesitation.
"Please send me the photos first, just in case." After thinking about it, Song Zhiyuan asked for the photos.
She would not take out this set of photos unless it was absolutely necessary.
This method is somewhat dishonorable, but if Minister Qian continues to drag them down and make things difficult for them, it is not impossible to use unfair means.
Shen Jingmo sent the photo over and said, "Yuanyuan, I will be in Kyoto in the near future. If you need anything, just let me know."
"Okay, I'm very grateful to you for this." Song Zhiyuan stuffed the dumplings into the cup and quickly drank the soy milk in the cup.
Then the two of them simply collected the garbage, and Shen Jingmo drove Song Zhiyuan back to the hotel.
Song Zhiyuan had just arrived at the hotel when Xiao Zhang was summoned to the room. While processing documents, Song Zhiyuan asked, "Have you contacted Minister Qian?"
"No one answered the phone, so I called the Ministry of Agriculture office in Kyoto, and the staff there said Minister Qian was in a meeting."
Xiao Zhang couldn't help but be bolder. He moved closer to Song Zhiyuan, fearing that someone might be listening. He whispered, "Director, I asked a friend to find out. They don't have a meeting at the Ministry of Agriculture today, but Minister Qian didn't go to the ministry this morning."
"Director, is Minister Qian deliberately avoiding us?" Xiao Zhang was just guessing.
