"Our village is close to the mountains. I happen to like studying books on Chinese medicinal herbs and also go to collect some. Although my aunt's illness has improved significantly, it won't be cured overnight. I have a lot of tonic herbs at home, so I'll bring them over."
"Thank you very much."
Since it concerns his mother's health, Zhang Qihuai had no intention of refusing. Besides, there was the previous deal, so there was really no need to refuse.
After Zhang Qihuai finished speaking, he didn't say much to Li Miaomiao and got down to business.
"I've already discussed the cooperation with your soap factory with the relevant departments. There aren't any major issues. Once the approval is in place, it's just a matter of going through the formalities. When the time comes, you can bring the person in charge of your village's soap factory here to sign the contract. The relevant departments will be responsible for the details."
A busy man like Zhang Qihuai would not care about these specific procedural issues and would leave them to his subordinates.
For Fanglin Village, the soap factory incident was a big deal, but for a large factory like the cigarette factory, it was really a trivial matter. There was no need for people of Zhang Qihuai's level to intervene; the people below could handle it.
"That's great, thank you, Deputy Director Zhang. If this thing succeeds, everyone in our village will be grateful to you. From now on, let alone medicinal herbs, even other things, as long as they are available in our village, we will take care of them." Li Miaomiao said very tactfully.
"No need, who do you think I am? This is the condition we agreed to before, and your village's soap factory also meets the requirements for cooperation."
Zhang Qihuai said with a straight face, looking righteous and awe-inspiring.
Li Miaomiao was not angry, but she still had to put in some effort on the surface. If Zhang Qihuai showed such greed on his face and was not at all righteous, she would be worried that it was not safe to cooperate with such a person.
"I've heard of Deputy Director Zhang's demeanor. I don't have any other intentions, I'm just grateful. We don't have anything valuable to offer in the countryside, so I just hope Deputy Director Zhang won't despise it."
"I appreciate your kindness, but I won't accept bribes, no matter how much. As for the herbs, I really need them, so I'll trade them with you. How about that?"
Even though he had not chosen to agree to Li Miaomiao before, Zhang Qihuai still had his own principles.
"Okay, let's do as Deputy Director Zhang says."
Li Miaomiao was also straightforward and didn't insist on giving it to him. She was flexible in doing whatever was done and agreed to what Zhang Qihuai wanted.
Zhang Qihuai and Li Miaomiao said they would go to the hospital soon. Although Zhang's mother's condition has improved a little, she still needs someone to take care of her in the hospital.
"Miaomiao, we have to rush to the hospital today, so we won't keep you any longer. It's rare that we get along so well, so come and sit with me more often in the future. If you want to sleep and are willing to recognize me as your sister, come and talk to me."
Zhang Qihuai was a little surprised when he heard this. He knew his wife's personality best. She was calm and self-controlled, and didn't have many friends on weekdays. It was rare that she could chat with Li Miaomiao. This Li Miaomiao was indeed not simple.
However, looking at Li Miaomiao's actions, although she is quite cunning at a young age, she has bottom lines and principles in doing things, and her starting point is still good. For this reason, there is no obstacle for his wife to interact with her. In his opinion, as long as the mind is right and deep, it doesn't matter. What's more, his wife is watching from the side, and she is not a brainless person.
