Chapter 285: Busyness before departure
The next day, Lin Siqiao bought some fruit and went to the hospital to visit Hua Chunqiu.
It was similar to what Lu Jianchuan said. She was fine, but she was very angry.
Lin Siqiao has known her for so long, but this is the first time she has heard Senior Sister Hua describe someone as sick.
After sitting for a while, Hua's mother came over.
Knowing that the mother and daughter still had something to say, Lin Siqiao didn't stay long and found an excuse to leave early.
In the next few days, Lin Siqiao was busy in the restaurant in the embassy district.
The house next door has now been renovated. Director Hu’s spending this time is huge.
The upstairs and downstairs alone are over 1,200 square meters, not including the huge open-air lawn in the backyard.
Lin Siqiao directly handed over the employee recruitment and training to Assistant Wu, who was mainly responsible for the soft furnishings in the house.
During this period, Lin Siqiao also visited the Kawanda couple several times.
We had detailed communication on the flowers, drinks, layout, guest seating arrangement and final gifts that would be used on the day of the banquet.
As for the clothes the couple wore, Lin Siqiao modified them five or six times to ensure that every aspect was perfect.
Finally, there is the issue of jewelry.
Lin Siqiao did not recommend it, but took the initiative to inform the other party.
All the accessories used by the couple on the banquet day will be sponsored free of charge by the Treasure Pavilion of the Friendship Store.
Ms. Monita was extremely surprised to hear the news, while Director Hu was heartbroken and puzzled.
He didn't understand why Lin Siqiao didn't seize such a good opportunity.
Lin Siqiao had her own reasons. To her, Mr. Kawanda was not only a big shot but also a regular customer.
When doing business, the most taboo thing is to take advantage of the familiar.
The better the relationship, the more you need to be careful about the proper manner in your interactions.
In this era, there is no such thing as free sponsorship. Otherwise, given the influence of the Kawanda couple, it would not be impossible for the Friendship Store to pay for all the expenses of the banquet.
"Director, this is the budget list for this banquet. You can take a look at it first."
Considering that there were hundreds of people at Kawanda's banquet, and that Westerners always prefer separate dining.
After communicating with the Kawanda couple, Lin Siqiao decided to adopt a buffet mode for the dishes this time.
The dishes are divided into three flavors: Chinese, Cambodian, and Western.
There are more than 80 dishes in total, plus 10 desserts and 6 fruits, which can be taken as you like.
The number for meal expenses alone is staggering, but the bulk of the money goes to alcohol.
In addition to these, Ms. Monita also ordered more than 5,000 flowers.
Most of them are used for banquet hall decoration and welcome flower bouquets.
The remaining flowers are used to bake flower cakes.
At the end of the banquet, there will be a special fireworks show.
It can be said that every link is burning money.
You said that consumption has reached this level, so shouldn’t it be the responsibility of the Friendship Store to do something to add icing on the cake?
Besides, it’s not free. I’m just lending it to them to wear for one night.
Director Hu took a look and said nothing. He could only say that they were old after all, and their thinking could no longer keep up with the pace of these young people.
The day soon arrived on the 28th, and the usually quiet and solemn Dongjiaominxiang became unusually lively.
Early in the morning, the alley was filled with cars coming in and out.
The invited ambassadors and their families received a special welcome flower before entering the banquet hall.
I have to say, this thought alone is very touching.
Whether it was sincere or false, on that day, the Kawanda couple received unprecedented attention and praise.
No woman can stand this kind of sugar-coated bullet, and Ms. Monia certainly can't stand it.
So during the banquet, she consciously or unconsciously recommended the Friendship Store's private customization to the ladies, especially Lin Siqiao.
In Mona's words, if you have any problems, you can always go to her.
The ladies nodded in agreement. They had attended many private banquets before, but this was the only time they felt what it meant to be different and what real care was put into it.
A banquet in which both the guests and the hosts enjoyed themselves.
The final fireworks show brought this tenth anniversary wedding party to a perfect end.
Lin Siqiao was able to breathe a sigh of relief, and she handed over the next matters to Assistant Wu.
However, the sets of top-quality treasures that should have been returned the next day were bought by Mr. Kawanda with a wave of his hand, which was a pleasant surprise.
Time passed quickly and it was early April, when confirmed news finally came from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The delegation will officially depart on the 6th. Taking security issues into consideration, the organizers did not charter a foreign civil airliner for this trip, but chose China Airlines to operate the flight.
It’s just that the special planes of this era are all models introduced into China in the 1950s and 1960s. The aircraft’s endurance is insufficient and they cannot fly directly to China.
In the middle, they will stop at Istanbul Airport in Turkey and stay there for about 4 hours.
Afterwards, they will take a special plane to Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris again, with an estimated arrival time of 5 pm.
Lin Siqiao had experienced the airplanes of this era last time. When he thought about sitting on the plane for more than ten hours, he felt worried for himself.
However, the one who was more worried than her was Lu Jianchuan.
At that time, international long-distance calls were not yet available to ordinary people, which meant that Lin Siqiao was completely out of touch with the world during the month he was abroad, and he couldn't even report that he was safe when he landed.
Before they even set off, Lu Jianchuan checked the luggage three times.
He also repeatedly reminded her to keep her passport, coins, pills and other things safe.
If other things are lost, they are lost too, but these three things are not.
Lin Siqiao found it very funny. It was good enough for her to have space and not steal other people's things. How could she lose things?
But facing Lu Jianchuan's worried eyes, she could only promise.
"Got it. I'll keep these three items close to me to make sure they won't get lost."
Lu Jianchuan felt relieved after hearing this and asked, "Think about it again, what else is missing?"
If he wasn't afraid that the things she was carrying were too heavy, Lu Jianchuan really wanted to pack another bag for her.
"What is missing?"
Lin Siqiao took a look at her oversized luggage bag and thought about it. It turned out that she was missing a pillow!
It's not a pillow for sleeping, but the common back-shaped pillow, so that your neck won't feel uncomfortable when you get on a plane or take a bus.
This product is not available on the market. Lin Siqiao in the space saw it and thought the workmanship was poor and it was obviously not from this era.
After thinking about it, Lin Siqiao decided to make one himself.
Lin Siqiao bought all the cotton and velvet cloth, but she forgot one thing: she had never done needlework before.
After trying a few times, he found that it only pricked his hand, so Lin Siqiao threw it aside.
After listening to her description, Lu Jianchuan had an idea in mind, "Bring the things over here, I'll try."
Lin Siqiao wants to ask, can you do it?
But her intuition told her that this was not a good thing to say and it was best not to ask.
After handing the thing over, Lin Siqiao said nothing, but just looked at him with suspicion.
