Chapter 235: Smart Calculation
The matter between Ye Qian and Wang Qiong was almost settled. This was probably the fastest business negotiation ever. It only took a few words. After all, everyone wanted to do it sincerely, so they were able to talk to each other quickly and confirm it as soon as possible.
At this time, the three people in the room had tried those clothes over and over again, countless times, and finally spread them out on the sofa.
Ye Qian asked: "You must be hungry after trying for so long. Let's go eat."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Ming opened the door and couldn't help saying, "Aunties, the food is cold, and you haven't left yet."
There was a silence followed by laughter.
Fu Ming was a little confused, and everyone felt a little embarrassed, so they stood up and quickly followed Fu Ming.
Although Fu Ming was puzzled, he didn't dare to ask because girls would definitely talk about private matters when they were together.
The group followed Fu Ming and soon arrived at a private restaurant. Yes, in the past week, there have been suddenly more private restaurants like this.
Since it was brought by Fu Ming, the taste must be very good. The private restaurant is run in his own home, and the owner specially reserved a room for private dining.
Fu Ming took everyone directly to the private room, where Gu Jinyan sat. Ye Qian walked directly towards Gu Jinyan.
After everyone sat down in an orderly manner, Fu Ming invited everyone to start eating. Ye Qian tasted the food and found that it was indeed cold, but fortunately the weather had warmed up, so it was okay if it was a little cold. After all, if fresh food was reheated, it would become like overnight food, and the taste would be greatly lost.
The atmosphere during the meal was quite strange and unusually quiet. After Fu Ming failed to adjust the atmosphere several times, he just ate his meal by himself and stopped talking.
Fu Ming was a little discouraged today. After all, he had always been good at dealing with these things, but he didn't expect to be defeated by a few little girls today.
There's nothing we can do about it. Either they are married or they are still young. What can people talk to them about? There's such a big difference.
Everyone caught the last bus and returned to school, and the four of them went back to their respective homes.
When Ye Qian and Gu Jinyan arrived home, the children were already asleep across the street. After a quick wash, they went upstairs and lay down. Ye Qian told Gu Jinyan everything she had talked about with Wang Qiong today.
Gu Jinyan never cared much about Ye Qian's affairs, and she was not committing any crime, so the others just followed Ye Qian's lead.
He would give her money if she wanted it, and he would find her connections if she wanted them, but Ye Qian never asked Gu Jinyan to do anything for her. Gu Jinyan asked, "Do you want my help?"
Ye Qian replied, "Yes, I can help you. Why don't you come with me to the street to ask around tomorrow? I think if everyone has a skill, it would be a way to make money and improve the family's life."
Gu Jinyan spoke with some concern: "Although the policy has been relaxed, it is not fully liberalized after all. If it doesn't work, don't be disappointed."
Ye Qian also understood, so she nodded and agreed: "I know, I'll just ask."
Although Ye Qian could tell whether someone was a ghost or not, Gu Jinyan was a leader after all. Officialdom was like a battlefield, so he could definitely tell the difference better than herself. After all, Ye Qian was always afraid of trouble, so she only wanted to find some honest people. She didn't dare to hire those who were always looking for trouble, and it was hard to say whether they could do it.
The next day.
Early in the morning, after finishing breakfast, the two walked out the door facing the reluctant eyes of the children. Ye Qian complained with red eyes: "The children are so dramatic. They will be back at noon soon. It feels like we are parting forever."
Gu Jinyan gave Ye Qian a look that said, "Your expression isn't very convincing."
Ye Qian smiled and pulled Gu Jinyan to the community street office. The two had lived in this area for many years. People in the street knew the couple and knew that Gu Jinyan was the director of the Grain Bureau. They immediately greeted him warmly.
The street director came over and immediately asked, "What's the matter?"
Ye Qian glanced at Gu Jinyan, nodded casually and said, "Yes, something happened."
The street director took Ye Qian and Gu Jinyan to the office, sat down and poured them a glass of sugar water. Seeing the sugar water, Ye Qian thought of the past. This thing was really precious at that time. Although it is still the same now, it is not impossible to buy it.
Ye Qian fell into deep thought. After Gu Jinyan noticed her, he called her twice before she reacted.
Ye Qian immediately thanked the street director.
The street director asked, "What's the matter with you coming here this time?"
Ye Qian glanced at Gu Jinyan and said, "Well, you're the street director, so you must be very familiar with our area. I'd like to find some honest people who can make clothes. Does anyone here have any recommendations?"
The street director continued to ask, "What are you looking for these for?"
"We are from the fashion design major. We designed some clothes and we want to find someone to make them. As you know, there are many students, so we have to make a lot of clothes. So we need to hire people. I am a local, so I came here to ask on their behalf."
Ye Qian would definitely not be so stupid as to say directly, "I want to make money, please find someone for me." This matter should be said in a more tactful way.
The street director understood what Ye Qian said and asked, "How many people do you need and how much do you want to pay?"
Ye Qian thought for a moment, "For now, there are five of us. As for the clothes, it's a case-by-case basis. It's just a matter of how much money you make for each piece. The more you make, the more money you'll make."
The street director nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask for you. This is a good thing that helps many families solve the problem of food and clothing."
"Yes, when I heard about this, the first thing I thought of was our street." Ye Qian said with a smile.
After that, they boasted to each other for a while before Ye Qian and Gu Jinyan left.
But I didn't expect the director to act so quickly. He just mentioned it in the morning, and in the afternoon he brought the person over to Ye Qian.
A total of 7 people were brought. Ye Qian wondered what the street director was thinking. Did he let her choose from the 5 people agreed upon before? Ye Qian noticed after observing for a while that the youngest and most beautiful woman among them, named Wang Zhen, had kept her eyes on Gu Jinyan since she entered the door. Ye Qian tentatively asked Gu Jinyan to pour her a glass of water. Wang Zhen's eyes followed Gu Jinyan's footsteps, turning back and forth, and rolling her eyes at Ye Qian from time to time.
Apart from her, there was another older man who also had a shrewd and calculating look on his face, which made Ye Qian feel uncomfortable. His face was full of worries. This person must be not easy to deal with. If these two people stayed, Ye Qian didn't dare to think about it, there would definitely be chaos.
But Ye Qian didn't want to do the bad guy's thing, so she asked Gu Jinyan to observe with an unhappy look on her face. At first, Gu Jinyan didn't quite understand why Ye Qian changed her expression so suddenly. Although she had done this before, Ye Qian would never do this in front of outsiders.
Until Gu Jinyan looked up at the seven people in front of him, there was nothing he didn't understand.
