"Where is Chen Ning? Ask her to come out and see me immediately." Li Zhenting asked directly with a stern face.
Ma Li looked embarrassed: "Boss Li, Boss Shen has been taking care of you all this time. You don't know where she went, so how would I know?"
Li Zhenting's eyes glared. "Mali, it seems you don't want Gu Qi to live anymore, right?"
Ma Li said with a sad face: "Boss Li, I am also looking for Boss Shen. If Boss Shen doesn't come back, Gu Qi will not be able to survive without your help."
Li Zhenting's ears twitched and he asked, "What's going on?"
"Ah." Mali sighed deeply. "Ever since Mr. Shen severed ties with Mr. Jing of the Jing Group, he's lost his stable supply of spices. As you know, spices are the main raw materials for perfumes. Sometimes just one perfume requires more than seventy spices. Not only is the demand high, but the variety is also huge. Now Gucci's spices are all gone, and production has come to a standstill. Without more spices, do you think Gucci can continue to operate?"
"So Chen Ning went to look for spices?" Li Zhenting asked after a thought.
If that's the case, then it seems understandable. But, is there any need for her to hide it from him and run away secretly? She can just come back openly. He won't tie her hands and feet, and he can help her when necessary.
"I think so." Mali answered vaguely.
"So where does she find spices now?"
"I don't know about that either." Mali spread his hands. He really didn't know where Shen Ning was in the United States.
"Why don't you go with them on such an important matter? You have to let a woman go to look for it alone. If something unexpected happens, can you afford it?" Li Zhenting asked in a cold voice with a flash of cold light in his eyes.
Ma Li quickly replied: "There's no way, Mr. Shen won't let me go."
"Really? That means you know where she went." Li Zhenting sneered.
Mali was stunned. Only then did he realize that he had been fooled by Li Zhenting. This man was too shrewd.
Helplessly, he could only say: "Boss Shen did come back to Guqi three days ago, but at that time, the raw materials were in urgent need, and she didn't stay for a few minutes before she took a plane to look for spices."
"Where are we going to look for it? Tell me the exact address, quickly."
At this point, Mali had no choice but to recount what happened that day, and then said, "Boss Li, I've told you everything I know. I'd be a coward to lie to you. I'm old now, and if I continue to lie, I'll be slapping myself in the face."
Li Zhenting pondered: "Then tell Chen Ning that I will stay in her office every day and let her contact me herself."
After saying that, he really walked towards Shen Ning’s office.
Mali looked at the man's tall back, helpless.
He had no way to deal with Li Yanwang!

Flowing Light Coffee House.
"Chen Ning, don't worry, I'll take care of the raw materials for the spices. I was just about to work with you on the Huayue series, but something happened at home that delayed me recently. Now that you're here, let's discuss the details and start work right away." After listening to Chen Ning's explanation of the whole story, Lin Zhenxun immediately agreed.
Chen Ning said cautiously: "Mr. Lin, this is my plan. The capital is the foundation of Gucci and cannot be lost. Now the most important thing is to solve the problem of raw materials. There are many spices that can only be imported from abroad. You are also aware of the current international environment. I want to cooperate with you to establish a spice company. It can ensure the development of the Huayue series we are going to cooperate on in the European market and also provide raw materials for Gucci. What do you think?"
"That's exactly what I want." Lin Zhenxun immediately decided, "How about this? I have a factory in Vietnam that can be used as a spice warehouse. I can bring spices from all over the world there and then ship them to the imperial capital. This way, I can have the best of both worlds and avoid high tariffs."
"That's great." Shen Ning was very excited. "Thank you, Director Lin. I believe that as long as we work together sincerely, Gu Qi will soon be successful. After I return this time, I will definitely increase the promotion efforts and work harder to develop the company."
"Well, I believe you." Lin Zhenxun smiled and nodded.
Shen Ning's hanging heart was finally put down, and they began to discuss cooperation matters. Lin Zhenxun was worthy of being a big shot, and was very straightforward.
Before long, they finalized the specific details. Because of Lin Zhenxun's connections and strong financial resources, Chen Ning insisted on a 30% profit, but Lin Zhenxun believed that Gu Qi's formula was the most important and it must be split 50-50. Finally, after a stalemate, the two sides decided to split 40-60, with Chen Ning taking 40%, which made her very satisfied.
