After getting off the car, Li Kaixuan took a few people directly into a private room.
Ling Ju had rarely eaten Cantonese food, so she asked Li Kaixuan to order so that he could experience an authentic Cantonese breakfast.
Not long after we ordered the dishes, the table was filled with exquisite baskets and small plates. Although each portion was not large, they filled a circle and each one looked very appetizing.
Li Kaixuan basically introduced what it was to everyone, and Ling Ju was very interested.
Zhen Zhen also took the initiative to fill everyone's tea.
"Ms. Ling, Ms. Zhen, Mr. Chen, Mr. Liu, our morning tea is a specialty. Please enjoy it. I hope it suits your taste."
Without further ado, they all ate heartily.
Ling Ju's previous impression of Cantonese cuisine has always been that it is light. She has hardly eaten any other Cantonese cuisine except Cantonese roast meat, but the morning tea on the table at this time is really delicious.
After trying almost all the dishes, her favorites were chicken feet, crystal shrimp dumplings and barbecued pork buns. Chen Yun and Liu Qing also had a fondness for the barbecued pork buns, and they ordered a few more baskets. Everyone was very satisfied with the meal.
After dinner and tea, it was almost eleven o'clock when we left the restaurant.
Li Kaixuan drove the four people directly to the 'Raw Fabric Processing Factory in Yangcheng'.
Gu Desheng's factory was not as luxurious as Ling Ju had imagined. It was a large yard surrounded by fences, with three production workshops like large warehouses and a two-story building.
Li Kaixuan led them to the reception room. "Ms. Ling, although our factory isn't as new as yours, it's small but fully equipped. Furthermore, this factory is quite old, and we have a huge order intake. As you know, Boss Gu still has 300 stalls."
"You are too modest. This scale is no longer that of a small factory. We are very honored to have a customer like Mr. Gu."
Several people sat down in the reception room. Li Kaixuan brought the people around Gu Desheng whom Ling Ju had met last time in Liao Province. They chatted about daily life, and while they were chatting, Gu Desheng came back.
Looking at Ling Ju, who was smiling sweetly and acting neither humble nor arrogant in the room, Gu Desheng almost didn't recognize her. "Who is this? Miss Ling?"
Ling Ju thought about how she was still fat and not looking good the last time they met, so she quickly stood up and said, "Boss Gu! It's me, long time no see!"
Gu Desheng shook hands with Ling Ju, still surprised. "You've changed so much, I almost didn't recognize you. How did you lose so much weight? You're getting more and more beautiful!"
Ling Ju smiled. "I used to be too fat and not in good health. Exercise is good for losing weight, and I gradually lost weight. And you're in better shape, looking refreshed and radiant. If I didn't know your age, I would have thought you were some handsome young man."
The simplest truth in the world is that flattery never wears out, no matter how many times it wears out.
The flattery was clearly effective, and a blush spread across Gu Desheng's shrewd face. "Oh, Miss Ling, I really admire your tongue! You're so good at talking!"
Ling Ju pretended to be serious, "Boss Gu, I'm telling the truth."
Liu Qing and Chen Yun stood aside and looked at each other. No wonder the second sister-in-law was able to take down Song Qi. She could lie without blinking an eye. The wrinkles on Gu Desheng's face were so thick that they could almost hide a few mosquitoes, but the second sister-in-law still praised his youth without blushing or beating her heart.
Thinking about it, my second sister-in-law is less than 20 years old, but she feels like she has the experience of a 40-year-old.
Awesome, awesome.
Gu Desheng talked to Ling Ju for a long time before he noticed Zhen Zhen sitting next to her. "Who is this lady?"
Ling Ju quickly introduced Zhen Zhen, "This is my colleague, Zhen Zhen."
Zhen Zhen shook hands with Gu Desheng.
"Boss Gu, besides delivering the goods this time, we also want to stroll around Guangzhou and take a look. We didn't have enough time to prepare anything for you, so we only brought some local specialties. Please don't mind."
As he spoke, Liu Qing brought up two large boxes, one of which contained two 10-year-old ginsengs, and the rest contained some specialty foods, wine and other things.
The ginseng was obtained by Song Wei. Although it was only ten years old, its appearance and quality were quite good. Ling Ju didn't know much about ginseng, but she believed that what Song Wei took out must be good stuff.
Sure enough, Gu Desheng's eyes lit up when he looked at the person, and Ling Ju knew that he had taken the right thing.
Rich people don’t care about cigarettes, alcohol or food at all, but medicinal herbs must be good.
"Oh, Miss Ling, thank you so much. Have fun in Guangzhou, and feel free to contact me if you need anything!"
After the chat, Gu Desheng took Ling Ju and others to visit the production room.
The factory building may look unremarkable from the outside, but inside it is filled with neatly arranged finished products in huge quantities.
Ling Ju observed and found that a large truck would be loaded away almost every two or three hours.
But there is one drawback, the overall hygiene of the workshop is not very good. There are scraps of cloth, strips of cloth, cut thread ends and so on everywhere under the employees' feet. Fortunately, the air in Guangzhou is humid and there is not much dust in the air. It also indirectly proves that their business is good and they don't have much time to clean.
After returning to the lounge, I briefly asked Gu Desheng about some plans for the next year. He basically said that he would order another batch of goods before the Spring Festival, with a minimum guarantee of around 5,000, and that he would definitely cooperate in the long term.
Gu Desheng insisted on keeping them for dinner, but Ling Ju refused.
He said that he had colleagues somewhere else and it was not advisable for them to stay long. After saying goodbye carefully, Li Kaixuan sent them back to the hotel.
After Li Kaixuan left, Zhen Zhen asked Ling Ju why she didn't stay for dinner, and Ling Ju explained to her.
"First of all, we are suppliers, and Gu Desheng is our customer. In business, customers always have a higher status than suppliers. This morning, we were treated to authentic morning tea. The price of the meal was not cheap, and the restaurant we went to was also quite high-end.
Although we brought ginseng when we visited our clients, it is obviously inappropriate to ask them to stay for dinner. Giving gifts to clients is a very important step. They invited us to dinner just as a courtesy, and we should stop while we are ahead.
Didn't he also say that he could place a minimum order of 5,000 sets before the New Year? This was a verbal agreement, and the purpose of our visit had been achieved."
Zhen Zhen nodded, but Ling Ju was not sure whether he understood or not.
It was already past five in the afternoon when they returned to the hotel. Sun Xiangyu, Qian Yuan and Wang Fujun had not returned yet. After resting in the room for more than an hour, they decided to go out and find a place to have dinner. As soon as they reached the door of the hotel, the three smiling men came back with large and small bags of things, and brought back a piece of big news: they had found a place selling coffee.
When Ling Ju heard the word coffee, he immediately became excited and said he would go out to buy some tomorrow!
