The dinner place was very large, and the decoration was elegant and luxurious. Led by the receptionist, everyone went through many twists and turns before reaching the private room.
The receptionist pushed open the door, and the man who was sitting in the room reading a book came over following the voice, then immediately stood up and said with a smile, "Uncle He."
Gu Haitao paused and stood there in a daze.
The "Fairy Sister" whom he thought he would never see again turned out to be the person they wanted to meet.
Professor He showed a loving smile on his skinny face, "Wanqing, you are busy, you don't need to come so early!"
Xia Wanqing smiled and said, "I invited Uncle He to dinner, how could I be later than you? I was in a meeting today, so I didn't see Uncle He's text message. Please don't be angry with me."
"If you don't rush to pay the bill with me tonight, I won't be angry." Professor He laughed and moved sideways to let Huo Qianli out. "This is the Huo Qianli I mentioned to you, Xiao Huo. This is President Xia Wanqing, the chairman of Wenxing Pharmaceutical."
Huo Qianli had high expectations because he had heard Zhang Chi boast about Xia Wanqing's appearance before. Although she was stunning, she didn't look as embarrassed as she did in front of Jiang Qingyue. He stepped forward, neither humble nor overbearing, and extended his hand with a smile, "Hello, President Xia."
Xia Wanqing reached out her hand and shook his gently, "Hello, Mr. Huo..."
The slight pause allowed her to quickly find the right address, and then she smiled naturally and offered her hand, "Everyone, please take a seat. Xiao Zhang and this little brother, please take a seat as well."
Gu Haitao, who was not satisfied with being addressed as "little brother", knew that this was not the place for fooling around, so he suppressed his desire to talk too much and sat down quietly.
After some pushing and shoving, Professor He sat in the middle, while Xia Wanqing and Huo Qianli sat on both sides.
Zhang Chi and Gu Haitao naturally sat at the end.
Xia Wanqing is gentle and kind, Professor He is amiable, and Huo Qianli, who has attended many occasions of all sizes with Han Zhiyuan, is also familiar with the etiquette and routines at the dinner table. Although there are not many people at the meal, the atmosphere is very warm.
While the drinks were flowing, Zhang Chi secretly winked at Gu Haitao, who was eating and drinking lavishly, asking him to pay attention to his image.
Gu Haitao pursed his lips nonchalantly and whispered, "What's the big deal? Fairy Sister told us not to be restrained. We are not important people. Of course, we should take the opportunity to eat and drink. If you are so restrained, you won't be able to eat well and won't leave any impression. This is a big loss."
Zhang Chi was stunned. This made so much sense.
The three people who happened to hear these words looked at each other and burst into laughter. Xia Wanqing's face also turned slightly red, and it was not known whether it was because of the alcohol or because of the compliment of "Fairy Sister".
"Xiao Huo, President Xia is usually busy. Take this opportunity to talk to President Xia about your situation and see if there is any point of cooperation. If so, you can have an idea of what to do next."
Professor He brought the topic back to the point at the right time, and then looked at Xia Wanqing, "Wanqing, Uncle He still said the same thing, feelings are feelings, business is business, you have to measure this matter from the perspective of your company. It's not only for you, but also for the people over there. If we can't win together, this thing won't last long, so it's better to find another way out."
Huo Qianli and Xia Wanqing both smiled and nodded.
"Boss Xia, in the first phase of Hushan Village, we only concentrated the land of one group, totaling more than 300 mu, of which nearly 200 mu can be planned into large plots. In the later stage, there will be three more groups. After preliminary calculations, a total of 900 mu of land suitable for mechanical operations and medicinal material planting can be provided. Our land is rich in available phosphorus, effective iron, manganese, and copper, which is more suitable for planting Chinese medicinal materials, especially Salvia miltiorrhiza, which has a certain reputation in Shuzhong and even the whole country..."
Xia Wanqing tilted her head slightly, smiled at Huo Qianli who was talking eloquently, and nodded when he finished speaking: "I have discussed this with Uncle He before. We do have a demand for a medicinal material base. I checked the map. Although Hushan Village is located in a remote area, medicinal materials are not vegetables and do not require frequent transportation... If you can plant according to our operating specifications, we can send experts to provide on-site guidance... We can even provide seeds, films, and fertilizers for free... But when purchasing, there are quality requirements..."
Huo Qianli listened attentively. Gu Haitao, who had received the order earlier, had taken out his notebook and started writing quickly.
The atmosphere in the field gradually became quiet. Zhang Chi, who was enjoying his meal, suddenly realized something was wrong. He looked up and met his teacher's disdainful eyes.
"We were so engrossed in our conversation that we left Uncle He aside." After a brief chat, Xia Wanqing smiled and raised her glass, "Uncle He, I toast to you."
"I'll keep you company. Thank you, Professor He." Huo Qianli also raised his glass.
The three of them drank a cup, and Xia Wanqing said with a smile: "Mr. Huo, come to my office at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and we will finalize some details."
Professor He suddenly said leisurely: "Wanqing, your office is not easy to enter!"
Xia Wanqing was stunned. Professor He looked at Huo Qianli's mobile phone on the table and said, "Your phone vibrated a few times just now. Call the person back quickly."
Huo Qianli glanced at Xia Wanqing, and they exchanged a puzzled look. Then he picked up the uncovered phone, turned on the screen, and suddenly realized.
Huo Qianli just raised the phone to his ear when Professor He said, "Turn on speakerphone so Wanqing can listen too."
Looking at Huo Qianli's hesitant expression, Professor He waved his hand and said, "Do as I say. Wanqing girl won't blame you."
In the quiet room, Huo Qianli placed his cell phone on the table in front of him and turned on the speakerphone.
