Chapter 70 He Has Other Intentions
Lu Jingyou was wearing the gray work clothes of Jiahe Group. If Su Jiaojiao hadn't seen him just two days ago, she would hardly recognize him.
In my impression, he was always in a suit and tie, and it seemed that he had never worn anything other than formal clothes.
Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse.
At this moment, he did not look like the unkind Mr. Lu in his previous life, but rather like an ordinary worker.
He was playing chess with Wang Zanchen, the office director of Jiali Garment Factory. Wang Zanchen was in his fifties, wore black-rimmed glasses, and was very humble. When he saw the two men come in, Wang Zanchen smiled and admitted defeat, "I lose this game."
"Director Wang, thank you for letting me." Lu Jingyou put down the chess piece, stood up and greeted Su Jiaojiao, "Student Su Jiaojiao, you're finally here."
"Mr. Lu." Su Jiaojiao greeted him generously. Wang Zanchen looked at Su Jiaojiao with a smile on his face. "Mr. Lu has been here for more than half an hour."
Then he said to Qin Shuang, "Let's go downstairs to eat first. We can discuss the school uniforms while we eat. Everything is ready."
"You know Mr. Lu, so there's no need for an introduction." Qin Shuang said to Su Jiaojiao, "This is Director Wang from the office. Director Wang is responsible for purchasing the fabrics and accessories for this batch of school uniforms."
"Hello, Director Wang." Su Jiaojiao shook his hand politely. "I'm sorry for your concern."
"Haha, the little girl is quite polite." Wang Zanchen smiled and walked out, "Come on, let's eat first."
Jiali Garment Factory is a private enterprise.
The office building has five floors. The first floor is the staff restaurant, the second floor is the conference room, the third floor is the leaders' offices, and the fourth floor has a luxurious restaurant that is not open to the public. It is specially used to entertain clients and banquets such as their leaders' dinner parties. Su Jiaojiao came here once with Qin Shuang in her previous life. The quality and taste of the food are not inferior to those in hotels outside, or even domestic hotels.
Su Jiaojiao has never been to the fifth floor.
I heard that there is a tea room and a gym, as well as several guest rooms, which are also prepared for customers. Sometimes when working late, the company will arrange for customers to stay on the fifth floor. Customers of Qimei Garment Factory usually stay at the Guolv Hotel.
Su Jiaojiao was wearing the long down jacket that Liu Wenzhi had given her. It just reached her ankles. It was no problem for her to walk on weekdays, but climbing stairs was a bit difficult for her. She held the down jacket and walked up slowly, for fear of falling on the hem of the jacket.
Lu Jingyou walked behind her, and seeing her cautious look, a smile emerged in his eyes. He felt that she looked like a clumsy little penguin at this moment, and this down jacket was indeed a bit too long for her.
The private room is well heated.
Su Jiaojiao took off her down jacket and placed it on the back of the chair. She was wearing a white sweatshirt and blue jeans underneath, which she felt was very decent for a student. Qin Shuang's down jacket was shorter than hers, revealing the hem of her purple dress. She was wearing high heels, and her every move was elegant and calm. She often came to this restaurant to eat, and it was as casual as being at home. She went to the wine cabinet and took out a bottle of wine and a pair of high-heeled glasses, pouring them for her and Su Jiaojiao: "Let's have some red wine, you guys can do whatever you want."
"Boss Lu and I will naturally drink white wine." Wang Zanchen had already brought the wine over. Lu Jingyou waved his hand and said, "I don't drink white wine. I've given it up."
"Then I won't drink either." Wang Zanchen took the white wine.
"Aunt Qin, I don't drink." Su Jiaojiao declined, "Let's talk about school uniforms first!"
She can't drink.
In the previous life, I was so drunk that I couldn’t make a fool of myself.
"Girls really can't drink outside, but since you're with me, you don't have to worry so much." Qin Shuang said disapprovingly, "I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, so you don't have to worry."
Su Jiaojiao just smiled.
Qin Shuang can indeed drink a lot, and there are even few men who can drink more than her. But it was precisely because of her good alcohol tolerance that she had a car accident in her previous life due to drinking. God always likes to let people crash when they are at their best.
"Su Jiaojiao is still a student. If you can't drink, then don't drink." Lu Jingyou handed the teapot to Su Jiaojiao and said gently, "You can design the fabrics, styles, and accessories of these school uniforms as you like. You don't have to consider the cost. Since we are willing to donate school uniforms, we don't care about these things. As long as the school and students are satisfied, that's all that's fine."
"With what Mr. Lu said, things will go much more smoothly from now on." Qin Shuang swirled the agate-like red wine in her goblet, took a sip, and then pulled out a brochure of school uniforms produced by Jiali Garment Factory in previous years from her bag and showed it to Su Jiaojiao. "The school uniforms you wear now are made by Qimei Garment Factory, not us. But I think their designs are very ordinary and unrecognizable. Our No. 1 High School is the best high school in Jiao County. Whether it's the fabric, style, or color, they should be carefully selected to make it eye-catching."
Su Jiaojiao held the tea bowl and drank tea in small sips.
He thought to himself that since Qin Xiuming had already returned to his ancestral home, Lu Jingyou must have known Qin Shuang's identity.
As far as she knew, the relationship between Lu Jingyou's father and his younger brother Lu Jiaping was not harmonious. They had even gone to court over property issues. The two brothers had long been incompatible, and their apparent harmony was just for outsiders to see.
As the eldest son of the eldest house, Lu Jingyou actually cooperated with the mother of his second uncle's illegitimate son to make school uniforms. No matter how you look at it, it seems incredible.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Lu and I just talked about this issue. This is how it should be." Wang Zanchen agreed with both hands. This batch of school uniforms are processed with supplied materials. Jiali Garment Factory does not have to pay for the fabrics, styles and accessories. They just make a profit from the processing fee.
The processing fee is determined based on the difficulty and quantity of the product.
The simpler the style and the larger the quantity, the cheaper the processing fee.
Generally speaking, the processing fee for a set of school uniforms is around five yuan.
Su Jiaojiao flipped through the photos in the brochure, but the school uniform she wanted was not in it.
Jiali Garment Factory doesn't make many school uniforms, and there are only a few styles over and over again. In her previous life, she only went to junior high school and never went to school again. She has a special feeling for school, and even the charity work she does is mostly related to school.
She has donated school uniforms to several schools before, and the one she's most satisfied with is the gray and navy blue one. Thinking of this, she picked up a pen and sketched the pattern of that uniform in a blank space in the album: "Nowadays, many schools use blue and white uniforms. If you want to make a uniform recognizable, you should first change the color scheme, then the style and other details. I think this bright gray on the front and back, and the darker navy blue on the sleeves, gives people a lively yet calm feeling, which is very suitable for high school students."
The dishes were served quickly.
The dishes are a perfect combination of meat and vegetables, beautifully presented and served steaming hot.
It looks better than the one I had at Guolv last time.
"I think it's good." Qin Shuang took a look and pushed the pattern to Wang Zanchen and Lu Jingyou. "I also like this color combination. As for the style, we don't need raglan sleeves. We can go straight to straight shoulder sleeves. High school students should give people a neat and formal feeling."
"Mr. Lu, please take a look." Wang Zanchen placed it in front of Lu Jingyou. Lu Jingyou looked at the pattern drawn by Su Jiaojiao. The brushstrokes were sharp and the pattern was standard. It was not the work of a high school student at all. He looked at Su Jiaojiao meaningfully and said, "I have no objection. You can discuss the specific details and try to finalize it tonight."
"It's rare for President Lu to come here personally for this matter, so how could we not do our best?" Qin Shuang said half-jokingly and half-seriously. "Those who know think President Lu came here for the school uniform issue, while those who don't know might think President Lu has other motives!"
Lu Jingyou smiled but said nothing.
The bright light reflected on the crystal clear goblet, and he could clearly see the young and innocent face opposite him, still stubborn and ignorant of romance.
"Haha, Director Qin, you really can take a joke." Wang Zanchen laughed heartily, but inwardly he was sweating. Qin Shuang dared to say anything. This was Mr. Lu from Jiahe Group. If it weren't for the school uniform issue, people like them wouldn't be able to see him so easily. Thinking of this, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Come on, come on, eat."
After dinner, the four returned to the conference room.
