Chapter 229: You will fail once you see it
So the place where the incident happened was definitely not Jiangcheng.
There is also a museum somewhere, and the items should have been transported away in batches at that time.
The curator was naturally the last to leave.
Unexpectedly, a fire broke out in the museum that night. Fortunately, Zhen Xi's grandfather had already moved the treasures and sent loyal men to guard them.
This transfer must have been from Beidu.
It was a very chaotic time, and all the planes at the airport were transporting dignitaries. Of course, these were treasures, and the leaders at the time would definitely want to take them all away.
When the situation was hopeless, those people forced the people to hand over all the gold they had, saying that they wanted to exchange it for money, but all they gave them were worthless paper money.
In fact, the land we took over was completely devastated and even countless treasures had been taken away.
Then again, did the last batch of treasures transferred from Beidu go to the south or the north?
If going to the south, it must be transported by plane.
Going to the north, it is very likely that there were spies there back then, and they wanted to transport things to Japan through Jiangcheng.
Of course, all of this is based on the assumption that the things in the reed marsh are the ones protected by Zhen Xi’s grandfather.
All thoughts disappeared when I saw Zhen Xi get off the car.
Lu Qiaoge greeted Zhen Xi with a smile.
They were already very familiar with each other, and Zhen Xi's attitude became much more friendly.
Lu Qiaoge saw the gauze wrapped around his wrist and naturally asked, "Mr. Zhen, what is this...?"
Zhen Xi frowned for a moment, then said lightly: "It's okay, I just got hit by the razor accidentally."
Lu Qiaoge looked at his expression.
He seemed to be in good spirits, but his eyes were bloodshot, as if he didn't get enough rest last night.
Lu Qiaoge didn't dare to continue asking.
Zhen Xi said as they walked: "I plan to go to Beidu with President Ming tomorrow to discuss setting up a clothing counter in Gangcheng."
Mr. Ming is the largest clothing merchant in Hong Kong, with his own factory and sales channels.
In fact, most of them are engaged in export business.
He is a very capable and daring man, and he is also close to us. When Zhen Xi went to find him, he immediately agreed.
He also introduced the other two clothing merchants.
It turns out that they are all very reliable.
But there are only two people eligible for the showcase this time.
It can only be given to Zhen Xi and President Ming.
Lu Qiaoge nodded: "I wish you a successful negotiation."
Zhen Xi touched his wrist. He had had a strange disease since he was a child. It would flare up at any time without any reason or sign.
I've been to many doctors, but they can't figure out what's going on.
It can only be said that it is a family genetic disease on my mother's side.
Yesterday he had an inexplicable attack and stabbed himself with a fruit knife.
It's normal now.
Zhen Xi and Lu Qiaoge said, "I will probably return directly from Beidu to Hongcheng, so I want to talk to you about the follow-up orders for the melon seed basket and the instant noodle production line."
While they were talking, Director Zhou came out and enthusiastically took them to the meeting room.
The order for melon seed baskets is 10,000, and the delivery date is 3,000.
According to the current situation and follow-up, it is not appropriate to place additional orders.
Lu Qiaoge meant the same thing.
All their products are top quality. Although Jinjin grass is a wild grass, it turns golden yellow after processing, which is similar to the color of bamboo weaving. It is flexible and durable. Captain Lin said that the objects woven by Mr. Du in the village with Jinjin grass have hardly changed color in five years.
But in fact, in Lu Qiaoge's opinion, a melon seed basket that costs only a few cents can be used for two years.
However, Zhen Xi said, "The merchants from Nanyang took a fancy to the melon seed baskets and wanted to buy from me. Do you have a master? Can you expand the scale?"
Lu Qiaoge's heart moved.
She really hadn't considered the businessmen from Nanyang.
But it is also a big market for foreign exchange.
All she can do now is straw weaving.
But the difficulty now is that there are no highly skilled workers.
Chang An once led a group of people, including dozens of aunties and sisters from the neighborhood committee, but most of them could only learn how to do something once they saw it, but failed once they started.
Not many people can really learn it, but even if they have learned it, it is not enough. It has to be a high-quality product because it is exported.
Lu Qiaoge had seen the fan woven by Chang An.
Very beautiful and practical.
Although I haven't seen Chang'an weaving in person, it must be very difficult for her to do so.
It must be an expert like Chang An and Fan Xiaoyu.
But the problem is that these are all handmade, and no matter how skilled they are, the amount they can produce is limited.
If only she had a hundred master chefs like this.
Lu Qiaoge said in a deep voice: "It is not difficult to expand the scale, but it is difficult to find a master. Moreover, this is purely handmade, and it is really woven one by one. In fact, the craftsmanship of the melon seed basket is very complicated, but we are now paying your company the price of consumables rather than the price of art. This means that if we hire a large number of workers, we will face a situation where our income is not enough to cover our expenses."
Consumables and crafts are not priced the same at all.
Zhen Xi didn't say anything, but just looked at Lu Qiaoge with a serious gaze.
Did she mean that her melon seed basket was a work of art and she sold it to him at a low price?
The secretary glanced at Zhen Xi, then smiled and said, "This is what we are going to discuss with Director Lu. We are going to order a batch of straw-woven cattail fans. Please make a sample. If it is what we want, we can continue the discussion."
But if you don’t have the ability now, then forget it.
Director Zhou was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead.
Lu Qiaoge, why are you hesitating? Just agree immediately. Our comrades can overcome any difficulties, no matter how big they are, and the wisdom of the masses is endless.
As long as the other party makes a request, we can do it even if we try our best.
If we really open up the Nanyang area, it will be hard to say what the foreign trade share will be.
Straw weaving, straw weaving, not to mention that Jinjin grass is a specialty of Jiangcheng and is available everywhere, even if we expand the scale, how many workers will we have to recruit and how many people will have to be employed?
This is something that will benefit the present and future generations.
Lu Qiaoge glanced at Director Zhou and said, "Chang'an has a straw fan in his hand..."
Before Lu Qiaoge could finish, Director Zhou stood up and said, "I'll call your factory and ask them to drive the fan over."
Lu Qiaoge thought for a moment and said, "Ask Director Hu to bring Chang An here. Tell Director Hu that he may need to sign a contract."
The call was made to the military factory's duty room and then reported to Director Hao, who instructed that someone be sent immediately to pick up Chang An and Director Hu.
Director Hao gave direct instructions that everything should remain the same as before and no irrelevant people should interfere.
Twenty minutes later, Lu Qiaoge and Zhen Xi had finished discussing the instant noodle production line, and the military factory's jeep drove over at lightning speed.
Old Hu in the car had a complicated expression and wanted to say: Qiao Ge, can we do it?
Before you can even leave, you want to fly!
But when he saw Director Zhou's eyes, which were brighter than light bulbs, he naturally swallowed the words back.
Yes, as long as we can exchange foreign currency, nothing is a problem.
Chang An felt very embarrassed, but everyone's attention was on the lotus-shaped fan he had woven.
The secretary picked it up, not examining it but admiring it.
It has to be said that Chang'an's dexterity is innate.
Chang An was a little anxious, he had a lot to say but didn't know where to start.
Lu Qiaoge gave him a pen and paper.
Chang An wrote: It could be nine plum blossoms, a circle of wheat ears, or even other patterns. This sample is a bit rough, and he can make it more refined.
Lu Qiaoge explained it to Zhen Xi and the secretary.
Zhen Xi took a look at the palm-leaf fan. Although it was very ordinary, it seemed that her father had one in his hand.
The fan handle is hung with top-quality jadeite. Although it is not often used, I heard that it was hand-woven by my great-grandfather.
Thanks to Dostoevsky, caroletu and other treasures for the rewards, thank you for your strong support, thank you very much!
In addition, I would like to explain Lu Qiaoge’s academic background. In Chapter 165, I wrote: Lu Qiaoge said honestly and openly: “Director Hu, I left school after the first grade of junior high school. I admit that I had selfish motives…
The setting is that he didn't finish the first year of junior high school when something happened. It wasn't explained clearly at the time because they were worried about being locked in a small dark room, so Lu Qiaoge didn't graduate from junior high school. In addition, Qiaoge was born in 1956 and went to school at the age of seven. He should have been in the first year of junior high school in 1968. The college entrance examination was cancelled for two years and recommendation was implemented. Academic qualifications were not important. This is a fictional era, so we won't say much about it.
Today I was writing about straw weaving crafts, and suddenly I remembered that I seemed to have participated in the intangible cultural heritage essay contest, so I found two pictures on the Internet. They are really exquisite and elegant. They are intangible cultural heritage. I hope they can be passed on. If the pictures are not acceptable, I will delete them immediately. Anyway, just take a look. Love you~
