Chapter 140 How did you two meet?
The basket is padded with white cotton cloth, and the most eye-catching thing is the golden corn tortillas.
As expected, after Team Leader Song counted the corn tortillas and biscuits, he wrote a note to Lu Qiaoge.
The price given by the department store to the food factory was the same as the price given to the tortilla because it was a new product but the main raw material was corn, so each one was priced at three cents and two taels of food coupons.
A piece of shortbread cost eight cents, and it cost two taels of grain coupons.
Although it’s easy to calculate, I still need local food coupons to buy one hundred of each item.
Lu Qiage had investigated the food counters in the department store. Every day at noon when get off work was over, there were always a lot of people queuing up here.
No matter what is on display, it will sell out quickly.
The large factory employs nearly 100,000 people, most of whom are workers with fixed monthly salaries, and many families even work in the factory.
The monthly salary is very considerable.
It's not like decades later when material resources are abundant and people are tired of eating meat and fish. Now, even if you have money, you can't buy many things.
Except for flashlight bulbs, which do not require invoices, radios, black-and-white televisions, and even refrigerators all require industrial invoices.
Therefore, there will be no situation of unsalable goods.
What's more, it tastes so good.
The facts were exactly as Lu Qiage had investigated.
The tortillas were sold out in just a few minutes after they were put on the table.
There were also some people who took a bite after buying something and found it so delicious that they returned.
But there were only about 200 of them, and they were almost sold out in an instant.
They all praised the food for being delicious. Some who were familiar with the salesperson asked loudly if there was any more in the evening and whether it would be sold tomorrow.
Because in this era many products are often out of stock.
So now there is no shortage of market, what is lacking is products.
Meng Qingshan and Su Hui, who had been feeling uneasy, finally breathed a sigh of relief this time.
As long as there are people who buy it and praise it, it proves that their food is good.
However, the contract signing has to wait until the afternoon because we are trying to produce today, so there will be no goods in the evening, but the food factory can prepare for tomorrow.
Lu Qiage remembered the 1,500 yuan that was about to arrive in his account, so he happily invited Meng Qingshan and Su Hui to dinner.
Meng Qingshan is the oldest and Lu Qiaoge is the youngest.
If I invite someone out for dinner, it will never be her turn.
But Lu Qiage is now the director of the food factory. Although she is a temporary director, everyone knows that no one can replace her unless she quits.
So it seemed a bit inappropriate for Meng Qingshan to invite Lu Qiaoge to dinner.
So I kept silent.
Su Hui is always called Director Lu or Director Lu when outside.
At this time, she just had to follow Meng Qingshan.
Anyway, it’s always right to listen to my second sister-in-law.
When Su Hui thought of her husband who had already returned to his hometown to transfer his household registration, she felt that it didn't matter if she skipped lunch.
Lu Qiaoge didn't know that these two people had thought so much.
There are several state-owned restaurants near the department store, and noon is the busiest time.
I don't even know if there will be a seat.
This is indeed the case.
I went to three restaurants in a row, and they told me they were out of food and asked me to come back in the evening.
It seems that as long as they have the raw materials, Meng Qingshan and Su Hui will no longer have to worry about not being able to sell the biscuits and tortillas they make.
Su Hui said, "Why don't you go home and eat? The weather has been hot these past few days, and many people don't want to cook lunch. So these state-owned restaurants are not selling enough."
Just then, a jeep slowly stopped beside the three people.
The car door opened, and Qin Hengzhi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, cast a deep gaze on Lu Qiaoge.
The weather is so hot, what are Qiao Ge and the two people from the factory doing?
When Lu Qiaoge saw Qin Hengzhi, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Just when I was looking for him, this guy showed up. What a coincidence.
Qin Hengzhi greeted Su Hui and Meng Qingshan, then asked Lu Qiaoge: "What are you going to do?"
"Let's find a place to eat."
Qin Hengzhi pointed ahead and said, "I'll take you to the Dongfanghong Hotel."
This is the best state-owned restaurant near the department store and also the most expensive.
Meng Qingshan and Su Hui didn't let Lu Qiaoge go this way.
They knew that Lu Qiaoge had not received his salary since he started working.
How could she spend so much money?
But since Qin Hengzhi was leading them this way, they had no choice but to follow.
Qin Hengzhi had already gotten out of the car and asked his secretary Xiao Su to drive the car to the entrance of the Dongfanghong Hotel first.
He talked to Lu Qiaoge as he walked, and then Meng Qingshan and Su Hui looked at each other, and at the same time slowed down their pace and distanced themselves from the two people.
Qin Hengzhi's voice was not loud: "There is a social dance party being held at the Workers' Cultural Palace tonight. Do you want to go?"
Lu Qiaoge smiled and said, "What a coincidence! An Leilei called me this morning and asked me to attend the dance as well."
An Leilei?
Qin Hengzhi looked at Lu Qiaoge solemnly: "How did you two know each other?"
Lu Qiaoge glanced around. This was a tree-lined avenue and the weather was hot, so there were almost no people walking around.
Meng Qingshan and Su Hui deliberately kept their distance.
So, Lu Qiaoge quietly told Qin Hengzhi what happened in the morning.
Qin Hengzhi looked at Lu Qiaoge with a smile.
Lu Qiaoge deliberately asked him: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
"So, are you planning to participate by yourself?" Qin Hengzhi asked indifferently.
Lu Qiaoge smiled and said, "No, I'm taking my sister to see the world."
Qin Hengzhi curled the corners of his mouth and said nothing more.
Lu Qiaoge chuckled: "But I plan to come find you this afternoon."
Qin Hengzhi asked slowly, "Director Xiao Lu is a very busy man, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Day by day, I seem to be busier than him.
Lu Qiaoge laughed even more happily: "I want you to be my dance partner!"
Qin Hengzhi's ears were a little red, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth and joy between his eyebrows.
Just thinking about him is enough.
The distance was not very far, and it seemed like we arrived there in just a few words.
Xiao Su is really capable.
Everything has been arranged.
There are a total of six dining tables in the small hall, all separated by screens.
It’s still a seat by the window on the third floor, with a view of the park outside.
"I have ordered the dishes for you. The bill has been settled. I will pick you and Qiao Ling up in the evening." Qin Hengzhi's voice was soft, but with the decisiveness unique to a soldier.
He paused, his eyes fell on Lu Qiaoge's face: "Qiaoge, I have to entertain some guests, so it's not convenient for me to have dinner with you."
Lu Qiaoge smiled and said, "Just do your thing. Besides, my sister-in-law and Brother Meng would be embarrassed if you had dinner with us."
After all, we are not familiar with each other.
Qin Hengzhi smiled and clenched his hands hanging by his side. He really wanted to tuck a strand of his little girl's hair behind her ears, but this was a public place and he was a soldier, so he couldn't do such an intimate thing.
But he still couldn't help wanting to say a few more words to her, but his little object waved at him: "See you tonight!"
Then he simply turned around and walked away with a cheerful step.
Qin Hengzhi laughed.
He stood there and didn't look away until Lu Qiaoge's back completely disappeared from his sight.
He straightened his collar and walked slowly towards a private room at the back of the hotel...
It’s the end of the month, and I’ll continue to ask for monthly votes from you guys, I love you!
