Ling Yicheng knew that she had classified him as a "bad guy", which was not wrong.
"Don't worry, I won't eat you. Don't you have a knife in your pocket for self-defense? I'm in this state now, so I can't take it away. You can only let me be slaughtered by you."
Su Xiaoli snorted.
That’s right, that knife is prepared for you.
Ling Yicheng casually handed her a few big unity notes and said with a smile: "Can you help me walk now?"
Well, money makes the world go round.
Today she will help a ghost.
"oh."
Su Xiaoli responded and stretched out her hand. Ling Yicheng thought, this time it should be me who is being pulled.
But she took out a pencil sharpener from her trouser pocket, pulled out the folded blade, gripped the handle tightly with her right hand, pointed the tip of the knife at Ling Yicheng's heart, and at the same time stretched out her left hand to help Ling Yicheng up.
Her face says: Don’t get so close to me.
Ling Yicheng: ...
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He picked up his handbag with one hand, held Su Xiaoli's arm with the other hand and stood up, but a photo accidentally fell out of his handbag.
Su Xiaoli was too lazy to look at it, so she bent down, picked up the badly worn photo and handed it back to him.
"Let's go."
Ling Yicheng was indeed eye-catching in this state, covered in dust and blood. The receptionist looked at him with suspicion.
He hurriedly booked a room, and Su Xiaoli stood by with her arms folded, watching silently.
After helping Ling Yicheng to the door of the room, Su Xiaoli turned around and went downstairs without even saying hello.
Ling Yicheng stood there in a daze.
From beginning to end, he didn't have time to say "thank you" or ask the girl's name.
He stood at the window of the room and looked down, only to see Su Xiaoli walk out of the door of the hotel where she was staying and go directly to the hotel next door.
She lives in another house? The little girl is very alert.
Ling Yicheng smiled bitterly.
I really am a person who is abandoned by others and has been like this since I was a child.
Even the old man who raised him was just...
Hey, why think so much? Drink today, don't let the golden cup face the moon empty.
As long as he can find the person in the photo before he dies, he will have done justice to his father who passed away young.
As for himself, once he got on the pirate ship, there was no possibility of getting off.
Sooner or later, just take it one day at a time.
Ling Yicheng lit a cigarette and smoked silently.
Su Xiaoli quickly fled from the "dangerous person". Somehow, she always had a hunch.
This idle guy is not an ordinary person. Although he appears to be relaxed, his temperament may be that of a man who is on the edge of a knife.
Different from Zhang Yu's tough and sturdy temperament, this guy is a little more secretive.
Stay away from people like this as much as possible.
She did act a little tough just now, but it was the only way to avoid unnecessary trouble.
She was a weak girl, and if she showed the slightest concession, she would be bullied by the man immediately.
There is no need to think too much about the outsiders.
Su Xiaoli lay on the bed and began to sort out the communication direction for tomorrow's meeting with the manufacturer.
The next day was a little cloudy, but it didn't affect Su Xiaoli's mood.
She first picked up He Aiqing at the train station, and the two of them took a yellow fish car across almost the entire Shanghai city. After many twists and turns, they finally arrived at the factory gate.
He Aiqing's relative was waiting for the two people at the door. His name was Fu Zhong.
Su Xiaoli took a look and found that her legs and feet were not very free.
He Aiqing secretly told her that her distant relative was a veteran who had retired from the front line.
Although Fu Zhong's legs and feet were not very agile, he was a cheerful person, without a trace of gloom on his face. He smiled and asked the two people if they had been driving for a long time to get here.
He also explained that the factory was a bit remote and it was difficult for guests to find it every time.
When the two asked Fu Zhong, they found out that this factory located in a village in the suburbs of Shanghai was originally a small welfare-oriented village-run factory that had been established for more than ten years.
Later, the overall business environment turned bad, the products were not up to standard, and the business almost went out of business. It was later contracted out to the boss Huang Tianhua for 50,000 yuan, and it was converted into a private enterprise only three years ago.
The founder and factory director Huang Tianhua came out with a few people.
Although "Caiyunfei" is a business for women, all the people who come out are "Arhats".
Director Huang is about fifty years old. He walks briskly and is in good spirits. He always exudes the shrewdness and capability of an old businessman.
He smiled and led the two of them in.
"In order to encourage economic development here, the township government has set aside an area that used to be a cowshed," said Factory Director Huang.
It was in such a difficult shed that he started producing cosmetics with a group of people, an investment of only 50,000 yuan and a few large water tanks.
“It was so difficult at the time. When we first started developing, there were no planned raw materials.”
Director Huang started chatting with the two people about family matters.
"There was a period of time when the factory was out of food, so I thought of asking the Shanghai department for some. The answer was of course no, it was impossible to give us even a kilogram of the planned raw materials.
I said, you are the big brothers, we are the younger brothers, the younger brothers want to learn from the big brothers, can you squeeze out a little for us? Even if it is just a little bit to keep us alive, it will be fine.
But what did the cadres say: Is your factory a younger brother? Not really. "
This conversation is truly unforgettable for Huang Tianhua.
He laughed bitterly and said jokingly: "According to this argument, our factory is not a younger brother, but an illegitimate child."
The term "illegitimate child" is indeed a bit harsh, but it was an obvious thing in previous years. Su Xiaoli nodded.
In those years, there was a clear regulation that the wholesale business of important means of production and in-demand durable consumer goods could only be operated by state-owned units.
No one is allowed to purchase and resell on the spot, or to increase the price and resell, or to demand extra income in any form. Speculators must be resolutely stopped and severely punished.
No wonder those cadres rejected him directly at that time.
But the tone of voice was a bit hurtful.
Director Huang was able to turn this factory from a negative asset into a thriving business under such difficult circumstances. He is indeed quite capable.
Director Huang brought the two men into the production workshop, where several workers were busy in an orderly manner.
"How many production lines do we have now?" Su Xiaoli asked after looking around.
“Three, but one is currently in a semi-idle state. The product sales are not good, so this one has never been used much.”
Director Huang said this with some regret.
“How many products do we have now?”
"Currently we only have sunscreen and a moisturizer, and both are selling mediocrely."
Su Xiaoli lowered her head and said nothing, but she understood what was going on.
It is clear from the tone of Director Huang that he wants to further expand production capacity, but the current product matrix and market influence have not yet been built, so it seems that there is still a long way to go in the future.
However, this gave Su Xiaoli some bargaining chips.
She remained calm and followed Director Huang and his group to the conference room.
Let’s get down to business.
