Chapter 111 Many People Praise Her
Jiang Haitang smiled lightly and said, "You're too kind. I just did what I should do!"
"Comrade Xiao Jiang, you're so modest. With your excellent communication skills and exceptional professionalism, you've secured multiple orders for the textile and machinery factories. On behalf of the department, I thank you. When I return, I'll recommend you for a commendation!"
When they heard the words "ask for credit", there was an uproar at the scene.
However, they did not feel jealous. After all, Jiang Haitang's performance this time was so brilliant.
There was warm applause again.
Jiang Haitang held the wine glass with both hands, his voice trembling slightly.
"Director Wang, thank you for your praise. These achievements are the result of everyone's joint efforts. All colleagues have done a lot of work these days... Without everyone's efforts, we would not have achieved what we have today. Thank you for your support, and I hope that our Longjiang Province can achieve even more outstanding results at the next Canton Fair."
Jiang Haitang knew that she could achieve what she has today because she was given a chance to start over, and because even when she was stuck in a quagmire in her previous life, she always adhered to the concept of doing everything seriously.
Those unintentional accumulations will become a boost to her development.
If you want to walk more steadily on the road ahead, you have to work harder.
But she is fearless.
On the second day, the Canton Fair officially ended and all exhibition halls began to dismantle their booths, including textile factories and machinery factories.
When everyone returned to the guesthouse with bags of exhibits, they saw Robert at the door.
Robert saw Jiang Haitang and immediately stepped forward.
"Hello, Miss Jiang, we are going back to China tomorrow. We came here today to invite you and your friends to have dinner together."
"We have a rule that we can't dine with foreign guests." Jiang Haitang immediately refused.
She didn't feel that her relationship with Robert was good enough to have dinner together.
"I know there are regulations, which is why I've waited until now to invite you. The Canton Fair is already over," Robert explained anxiously.
Jiang Haitang: “…”
Jiang Haitang was unsure about this question, so she looked at Director Hu.
"Haitang, you go represent our factory. Director Lu and Secretary Han, you two come with us."
Director Hu is not a conservative person. They will continue to cooperate in the future, so having a meal together is no big deal.
He won't go. After the Canton Fair, he will most likely be transferred.
Robert chose the state-owned restaurant where they first met.
Unlike the tense atmosphere of that day, the atmosphere today is very good. People with yellow and white skin sit together and chat happily.
Lu Liangchen and Han Zhiqiu didn't understand English, but with Robert and Jiang Haitang around, communication was not a problem.
Soon, the waiter brought the food, and the jade siu mai and barbecued pork buns were steaming in the porcelain plate.
Robert taught his customers how to use chopsticks to pick up rice rolls, and his clumsy movements made everyone laugh.
"Look at this," Robert said, holding up a bowl of boat porridge. "This porridge is cooked overnight with fish bones and scallops, and topped with fish fillets and jellyfish. It truly reflects the exquisite taste of the people of Huadu."
His voice rose unconsciously with pride. "Our Huadu's cuisine is just like this city. It has traditional roots but is also open to new things."
After being severely reprimanded by Jiang Haitang that day, Robert has been reflecting on himself these days.
He has been abroad for many years and has seen countless Chinese people being discriminated against and harassed abroad.
Once upon a time, he thought that pleasing foreigners would make his life better.
However, after being scolded by the little girl Jiang Haitang, he realized that no matter when, people who wander in a foreign country are like rootless duckweed.
Only when the land behind is solid enough can the wanderers stand straight in the wind and waves, and only when the motherland is strong enough can it protect the safety of overseas wanderers.
He tried his best to mediate and enable the two companies to reach a deeper cooperation. Although it was only a small contribution to the development of the motherland, as long as everyone contributed a little, the motherland would become stronger and stronger.
The arcade outside the window gradually lit up with bright lights. Jiang Haitang looked at the astonished expressions of foreign customers as they tasted the delicacies of the Flower City, and suddenly realized that this unexpected encounter might be the meaning of the Canton Fair - to find the possibility of communication between institutions and traditions, closedness and openness.
As the night deepened, the sound of laughter and conversation mixed with the aroma of tea drifted out of the window.
Jiang Haitang knew that this flavor with the warmth of the city would definitely remain in the memories of these foreigners.
Among them, Robert played an extremely important role. He was a smart man and a man who loved his country.
I hope that in a few years, after the reform and opening up, Robert can bring more surprises.
She smiled and raised her glass to Robert...
On the return train, everyone was tired but excited as they talked about their gains.
Jiang Haitang and Lu Liangchen looked at the scenery passing by outside the window. They knew that this Canton Fair had brought orders to the factory and laid a solid foundation for future development.
Everything went smoothly along the way, and when Xiao Taozi returned to the factory, she was extremely happy.
During this period, both father and mother were not around, and Xiao Taozi couldn't even eat.
She was actually very worried that her parents didn't want her anymore.
But Aunt Liu kept saying that her parents were just on a business trip, and she even took her to talk to her parents on the phone. Only then did she believe that her parents didn't abandon her.
Looking at the little Taozi who was crying and hiccuping, Jiang Haitang felt sad.
"Little Taozi, be good and don't cry. Mommy bought you a lot of wonderful things. Look, there are candies, new clothes, little hairpins, and plush toys. They are so beautiful."
Jiang Haitang took out the things she brought for Xiao Taozi from her bag one by one.
Xiao Taozi didn't even look at her, but just hugged Jiang Haitang tightly.
"Come here, Xiao Taozi, let daddy hug you too." Lu Liangchen reached out and took Xiao Taozi from Jiang Haitang's arms.
"My daughter has grown up a little bit." Lu Liangchen smiled and pinched Xiao Taozi's cheek: "But she hasn't gained much weight. Is it because she hasn't eaten well?"
Little Taozi shed tears and said, "I miss my parents so much that I can't eat."
With just one sentence, the two adults' eyes became moist again.
I have to stay at home with my children because I have no choice but to work. If I go to work, it will be uncomfortable for the children to stay at home.
No matter when, this is a problem that cannot be solved.
Fortunately, Xiao Taozi is just a child, and even if something is on his mind, it will pass quickly.
In less than half an hour, she became happy, wearing the small clip that Jiang Haitang pinned on her head, and happily spinning around the room.
"This is for the two sisters, and this is for the two brothers. Wait a minute, let's give them to the brothers and sisters."
Jiang Haitang took out the gifts she had brought for others.
Put the ones for Liu Hongmei's family aside.
"Little Peach, go with your mother." The little guy immediately expressed his opinion.
Jiang Haitang gave Aunt Kong a box of Huacheng snacks, and gave Liu Hongmei a gauze scarf. The four children all got stuffed toys, one for each of them, with different designs.
In this era, this is considered a generous gift.
Liu Hongmei said hurriedly: "Why are you so polite? It must be tiring to go out and bring back so many gifts."
"During this period, you have helped to look after Xiao Taozi. It's been very hard."
"Director Lu gave me money and food coupons, so it was just a simple matter."
Although she said polite words, Liu Hongmei still accepted the gift.
In addition to gifts for Liu Hongmei's family, Jiang Haitang also brought gifts for Zhang Shangwen and Kang Xiaoxia.
Jiang Haitang plans to deliver Zhang Shangwen’s gift to him while having breakfast tomorrow morning.
Just give it to Kang Xiaoxia when you see her, there is no rush.
The next morning, Jiang Haitang did not make breakfast and took Xiao Taozi to the cafeteria for breakfast.
When Zhang Shangwen saw Jiang Haitang, he praised her profusely.
"Haitang, you've been so popular lately. I've heard all about your great achievements at the factory."
"Uncle Zhang, I feel embarrassed when you say that."
Zhang Shangwen happily served the soft and sticky eight-treasure porridge to Xiao Taozi, and added a large spoonful of sugar for the little guy to eat.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? You're very capable and can secure big orders. Others can't envy you. The factory's year-end bonuses and benefits are all settled, and everyone is grateful to you."
Jiang Haitang took a fried dough stick and ate it with soy milk, smiling.
Zhao Xiufang even ran over to find Jiang Haitang and said a few nice words.
When Jiang Haitang walked out of the cafeteria holding Xiao Taozi, everyone she met was very nice to her. They would greet her and smile at her.
When Jin Qiaoyun and a few others arrived at the cafeteria, they happened to see Jiang Haitang coming out of the cafeteria.
Wei Xiaohong stiffened her neck and said, "How shameless! To curry favor with Director Lu, she raised Director Lu's adopted daughter as her own child."
How can a woman from the countryside be so successful?
During this period, everyone in the factory was praising her, as if she was someone out of this world.
Jin Qiaoyun glared at her and said, "If you can't speak, then don't speak. Otherwise, don't walk with us."
Jiang Haitang is now the most successful person in the factory. If their relationship hadn't been so bad before, they would have had some affection for each other now.
It was all the fault of that idiot Wei Xiaohong. In order to curry favor with the Liang sisters, he kept staring at Jiang Haitang and offended her so much.
At this time, she didn't think about it at all. Her idea was to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between Jiang Haitang and Wei Xiaohong.
Jiang Haitang saw them, but just pretended not to see them and left.
She is a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment. She will be doubly good to those who are good to her, and she will not pay any attention to those who are not good to her.
As for those who provoke her, don't blame her for being rude.
Jin Qiaoyun and the others were not people with whom one could make close friends, but they were not extremely evil either.
Including Wei Xiaohong, she was just stupid and was used against herself.
She wouldn't deal with them, but she wouldn't consider them her friends either.
After sending Xiao Taozi to school, Jiang Haitang immediately went to the factory's meeting room.
There was a special seminar on the Canton Fair this morning, and Director Hu asked her to attend as well.
