Chapter 1119 Drafting Documents
The materials have been collected almost completely, and the next step is splicing and editing.
Lu Miao was busy at home for a few days, and then started to work in the community again.
She spends little time at home, and the happiest person at home is Xu Xiangcao.
Lu Miao is particular and cannot tolerate any dirt or filth.
Every place in the house must be kept tidy and clean.
For a long time in the past, she was not satisfied with the way Tang Mei cleaned up, not to mention Xu Xiangcao who was sneaky while working.
During the few days of collecting materials at home, Lu Miao asked Xu Xiangcao several times to clean up the places that were not cleaned up neatly.
It doesn't make sense that in the past when there were fewer people at home, the house could be kept in a decent state, but now that we have two maids, everything is so sloppy.
Xu Xiangcao did not reflect on whether there was a problem with herself, but just thought that Lu Miao was demanding and liked to make things difficult for her.
Now Lu Miao is too busy at work to go home. For Xu Xiangcao, it is like a general amnesty and a celebration for everyone.
Of course, these are all small things happening behind the scenes. Lu Miao is so busy that he can't hear everything and know everything for the time being.
In order to promote the work plan, at the end of November, Lu Miao attended special occasions with Minister Zhan and President Qin and participated in two high-level meetings.
She had heard about some policies or news that had not yet been announced to the public.
Following several corruption cases that broke out in the past two years, with the gradual promotion of economic policies in the past two years, some bad habits have more or less grown in various places.
The higher-ups have issued a draft document, and some people are already secretly investigating this matter.
Lu Miao had a rough idea in his mind: the next two years would probably not be peaceful...
In the entire public service system, Lu Miao is neither a decision maker nor an outsider in the policy of the events that are about to be promoted.
In addition to restraining herself and making sure her family abides by the "rules" and does not cross the red line, she does what she should do in her daily life.
Therefore, she was not under as much pressure as Minister Zhan and others.
It was also when the situation in northern Beijing was secretly turbulent that Lu Miao received a call from the factory courtyard.
I originally thought it was Chen Xiangdong calling and wanted to say something.
After answering the call, I found out that the people talking on the other end of the phone were Mei Zi and Lin Xian.
The two of them chattered at once, their voices sometimes louder and sometimes softer. At first glance, it sounded like they were fighting for the microphone.
"Sister-in-law, didn't you ask Brother Xiangdong to bring over some lipstick and perfume last time?"
"Brother Xiangdong said he brought it back for us to try out first. Sister Lu, we've all tried it and it works really well!"
"Yes, yes, especially that lipstick! Sister-in-law, not only is the color natural, it's better looking than those pink ones sold in department stores, and it's also very moisturizing! In the past, the corners of my lips would always crack in the fall and winter, but this year, after using this, they haven't cracked at all!"
"Sister Lu, we all think it's great. The lipstick makes your lips look shiny and moisturized. Many young women in the alley have seen it and asked about it! And the perfume smells really good. The women and girls in the factory all say it's great!"
They both murmured and their voices almost overlapped.
Lu Miao listened for a while before he understood what was going on, and then he said on the phone:
"Don't just look at the immediate results. You need to compare things. Buy some from other brands and try them out. If they really have significant advantages over others, then they're truly good."
Mei Zi on the other end of the phone immediately said:
"I've tried it, I've tried everything! You can't buy perfume outside, but Brother Xiangdong bought several lipsticks this morning. Sister-in-law, I'm not bragging, our stuff is really better!"
Mei Zi and Lin Xian chattered over there:
"Some lipsticks I buy from department stores look moisturizing, but the colors are terrible on my lips! Other colors look pretty, but a light swipe leaves them like a layer of cream, and my lips become dry and flaky after a while... Only ours are the best. Not only are they moisturizing, but the colors aren't overly dramatic, and they look great!"
Chen Xiangdong has always been a little skeptical about lipsticks made from cochineal. When he came back from Lu Miao that day, he bought a few lipsticks at the department store for comparison.
Afterwards, Mei Zi, Lin Xian and others also used it.
What the two people are reflecting at this moment is actually the advantages and disadvantages of imported lipsticks and domestic lipsticks.
The imported lipstick paste is delicate and smooth, and its texture is remarkable.
It’s just that the Barbie pink color that’s popular abroad is not very compatible with Chinese people’s skin color.
It would be fine if you meet someone with fair skin. As long as the person can accept the color, maybe they can pull it off.
But the problem is that the living standards of Chinese people are generally not high, most people have dark yellow skin, and due to factors such as nutrition, their skin is often dry and thin.
Applying this pink lipstick on this skin tone is a disaster.
Not only will it fail to add beauty, but it will greatly reduce the overall image and become a visual disaster area.
As for domestic lipsticks?
There are some nice-looking colors, but there is one thing that is absolutely undeniable.
It is not ruled out that there are people who have good traditional craftsmanship in making lip balm, but most of the products that can be sold in state-owned stores come from state-owned factories.
However, there is a common fatal problem in state-owned factories.
That is, the production base is relatively weak and the production technology is relatively backward.
As Mei Zi and Lin Xian reported, lipstick colors look good but not only feel heavy on the lips, they also cause dry and flaky lip skin, which is a common problem.
Some of them are not only applied thickly, but also have no color at all.
This situation is also very common.
Lu Miao communicated with Mei Zi and Lin Xian on the phone, recording and summarizing their feedback.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Miao thought for a while and called Hu Zhiyuan in his hometown.
Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou have been very busy with various things in the past six months and have not contacted their hometown for a long time.
After the call was connected, Lu Miao first chatted with Hu Zhiyuan.
After they finished talking about each other's recent situation, she told Hu Zhiyuan the main purpose of the call.
She said she would send some money back to her hometown later.
Hu Zhiyuan used part of the money to buy some nutritional supplements and then gave them to the two elders in the village.
The other one was given to the sweet date couple in the team.
The last time I wrote to my hometown, I mentioned that the couple in Tianzao's family had bought a lot of beehives in the team to raise bees.
At that time, we also sent a few bottles of jujube flower honey for them to try.
Lu Miao thought that he could definitely get this year's new beeswax from Tianzao.
But it’s a bit unreasonable to only use beeswax.
After all, beekeepers make a living by selling honey.
If she only wanted beeswax, Tianzao would definitely not take her money.
Lu Miao came up with a compromise and suggested buying some honey to give to a friend and asked Hu Zhiyuan to help make the trip.
As an extra, if you have beeswax, give her some more.
