Shi Zijin glanced at the waiter and asked, "What's your name?"
Seeing that he looked normal, the receptionist thought he was lucky and favored, and immediately said his name out of flattery.
Shi Zijin nodded and said to everyone, "Go in."
Cen Tianjiao followed behind and said to the waiter with a playful smile: "Boy, you are going to be in big trouble."
The receptionist didn't know why.
The entire exhibition center has three floors. The first floor is the front desk, rest area and various private rooms. Although the decoration cannot be called magnificent, it is quite impressive. However, you can also see the traces of time. Unlike Taoyang's office building, you can tell at a glance that it is a new building.
There were already quite a few people in the lobby on the first floor, and people from many different bases were chatting with each other.
Su Tao saw from afar that Minister Xu Chang was surrounded by a group of people. If he wasn't tall, they might not be able to spot him.
The big boss from Changjing is indeed popular. Look at the people surrounding him, each one is more attentive than the other.
At this time, Minister Xu looked towards the door, saw Su Tao, nodded and smiled at her.
They met halfway, but Minister Xu was most familiar with Su Tao, after all, he had ridden in the girl's car.
Now, all the people gathered around looked towards the door.
Someone whispered, "Who is Minister Xu looking at? What are the origins of these people at the door?"
"I don't know. I've never seen him. Minister Xu seems to be quite familiar with them."
A few people recognized Shi Zijin: "He is the captain of the Dongyang pioneer army. I heard that Changjing wanted to invite him to the capital to take up a position. It's not surprising that he knows Minister Xu."
"Yes, although Dongyang's development is not very good, the pioneer army still has something to offer. Its strength should not be underestimated. Wasn't that reptile captured alive by their captain recently? Is that him?"
"It seems so. He looks quite handsome. I thought he was a bald man with a face full of flesh."
The distance was not close, Su Tao could only see them whispering to each other.
At this time, several guides came over and after looking at their invitation letters, they wanted to take them to the booth on the second floor.
Each base participating in the conference will have a booth, ranging from 20 to 50 square meters. Each booth is like a semi-open shop, not only with the name of the base, but also with a counter and seats for rest.
Various products or samples of the base can be placed on the counter. During the intermission at the end of each meeting, all participants come here to communicate and learn from each other, or to close a deal on the spot.
There are many opportunities and connections here, which is why the threshold for the Alliance Summit is so high and the places are so precious and in short supply.
Shi Zijin originally wanted to take Su Tao to the VIP room to rest. After all, there was still an hour before the meeting started, so they could take a break first.
But Su Tao was full of curiosity about the booths of various bases on the second floor and declined his kindness.
Shi Zijin had no choice but to give up and left the VIP room. He followed her to the second floor.
However, before leaving, he sent a message to Ling Tianji, saying that he would catch up with him in the afternoon, and mentioned in passing what the receptionist at the door had done.
Ling Tianji's face flushed red when he saw the news. He immediately called the manager over and started scolding him:
"How did you choose this person? I didn't even ask for intelligence, but he turned out to be someone who looked down on others. Who gave him that sense of superiority?! It's shameful!"
The manager was sweating profusely and wanted to go back and kill the receptionist on the spot.
"Hurry up and get that person out of here! Minister Xu is a very hard-working person. If he runs into someone like him, Xindu won't have any good luck in the selection this year!"
The field manager nodded and left.
Ling Tianji's face was full of anxiety. Shi Zijin still needed to remind him of such a small matter.
He couldn't help but bring Zhuo Ercheng over and repeated the precautions on the field:
"Ercheng, success or failure lies in the details. Don't let such trivial matters slap me in the face."
Zhuo Ercheng agreed, and his face looked very unhappy when he came out.
Jiang Jinwei, who happened to be coming in from the fast lane, saw him at a glance. She trotted over and was about to act coquettishly, but he gave her a cold look.
Jiang Jinwei didn't dare to say a word.
Zhuo Ercheng took a moment to calm himself down, then said to her, "I'm very busy today. If you don't have anything to do, go shopping by yourself. Chat with your sister and try not to come to me."
He felt more and more that Lulu was sensible and considerate.
Here she was still queuing outside in the scorching heat, and she was only concerned on the phone about whether he was busy or not, waiting for her to come in, and telling him to call her if there were any small errands he needed to run, without asking to use the fast lane at all.
Jiang Jinwei could only watch him walk away feeling aggrieved.
What could she do when visiting? She couldn't understand the conferences and lectures here, and there was no one she knew to chat with.
She subconsciously ignored Su Tao's existence.
Just as she thought of this, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure. It was Su Tao!
She was following a group of people up to the second floor.
Jiang Jinwei completely forgot what Zhuo Ercheng had just said to her.
Chat with Su Tao to maintain sisterly relationship? Impossible.
She decided to find some compatible friends at the meeting.
The guide led them to the second floor, while softly explaining the precautions of the meeting.
For example, you cannot use supernatural powers to stir up conflicts and disputes, or maintain order in meetings.
"Everyone, the Dongyang Base is in Area C, the Wutai Base is in Area B, and non-base attendees can rest in the central exhibition area. I wish you all a pleasant conference."
The people from Taoyang, holding different invitations, all looked at Su Tao.
Su Tao said: "Let's go to Dongyang's booth first, then you can move freely. Chenyang and Zheng Xing, you two must follow me."
Zheng Xing agreed without thinking. Since the teacher was not there, he only listened to Boss Su.
Chen Yang, who was excited, immediately stopped and nodded resignedly.
Although he really wanted to go out and find Brother Lei, his mother said that he had to listen to Sister Taozi when he was outside, otherwise he would be forbidden to leave Taoyang in the future.
I don’t know how Brother Lei is doing. Last time, Brother Huoshe told him to say more good things about Brother Lei in front of Sister Taozi.
He swore that he really said nice things and said them whenever he got the chance, but most of the time Major General Shi stayed with Sister Taozi. Whenever he said something about Brother Lei, Major General Shi would look at him.
Although her eyes were light and flirtatious, he still felt a little scared.
Dongyang's booth is 30 square meters in size. The material used to build the booth is similar to hard plastic. The overall structure is relatively simple, making it easy to build and dismantle. There are a lot of text introductions printed on the walls inside the booth, such as the development history of the base, photo captions, etc.
Inside the booth, Xing Shuyu and Yang Yingyang, a director from Dongyang Public Affairs Department, were tidying up the counter.
Two assistants were also helping to organize.
They brought some Dongyang specialties and photos.
It’s a bit embarrassing to say that Dongyang has been developing for 20 years, but there has been no progress in industry and technology. Only medical care and education are impressive.
Therefore, the biggest highlight of Dongyang’s participation in the conference almost every year is the photos of hospitals and schools.
But this year, Dongyang has a new highlight - a complete reptile specimen.
It seems that at present, apart from Changjing, no other base has captured the reptile alive and conducted in-depth research.
Sure enough, when the reptile samples were displayed, people from various bases at the surrounding booths all cast their eager eyes on them.
Su Tao was quite envious. It would be great if Taoyang also had his own booth.
She greeted Xing Shuyu and Yang Ying, looked at the counter which still had many empty seats, and suddenly asked with sparkling eyes:
"Can I be so shameless as to ask for an empty seat?"
Yang Ying is a middle-aged woman with a plump figure, a round, fair face, and a very friendly smile.
Yang Ying had known Su Tao through Xing Shuyu a long time ago, and was not unfamiliar with her. She smiled and said:
"Of course, let's just leave it here. We won't be using it. Do you want to put Taoyang's things?"
"Yes."
Su Tao nodded in thanks, then asked Fang Zhi to take out a refrigerator and asked Xing Shuyu:
“Can I plug in electricity in the booth?”
Xing Shuyu pointed to the ground below and said, "There's a socket here, but we'll have to pay for the electricity after the meeting."
Su Tao said generously: "I'll give you 10% of the profits from the sales."
Xing Shuyu didn't realize how much 10% was at first, until she saw Su Tao set the price of a bottle of mineral water at 500 federal coins, and the prices of other different drinks were in the range of 500-3000 federal coins per bottle, and she took a breath.
If she remembered correctly, the unit price of these drinks in Taoyang would not exceed 100 federal coins.
You are definitely the profiteer.
Yang Ying, who had never lived in Taoyang, didn't think it was expensive. Instead, he let Su Tao raise the price boldly, adding 300 federal coins to the price of each bottle:
"Believe me, there are definitely people who will buy mineral water that costs 800 yuan a bottle. There is no shortage of wealthy people at this exhibition."
Su Tao took her suggestion quickly.
What was she doing at the conference? To make money!
