Chapter 163
When there is air conditioning, men and women playing poker can enhance their relationship and is a great enjoyment.
But when there is a power outage, if you move a little, you will sweat profusely, and if you exercise again, it will be a disaster.
Qin Xiang smiled and pushed him away, "No, it's hot."
"It's still a little warm now, let's finish it quickly." Meng Huaiqing said as he stretched out his hand to open the drawer.
At this time, Qin Xiang discovered that there were many small umbrellas in the bedside cabinet.
She looked at the unfamiliar brand on it, frowned and asked, "Isn't this a three-no product?"
"Of course not." Meng Huaiqing leaned over and kissed her, "Why would I use such an inferior product."
In the 1980s, although China had already started to implement family planning, family planning supplies were once in short supply. Even though condoms could be applied for in big cities, those in China were handmade and the disinfection and hygiene were not up to standard.
Qin Xiang hadn't noticed it before, but she was curious now. Since Meng Huaiqing said it was a good thing, she didn't worry about it anymore.
She suddenly asked, "By the way, is your project in the capital also an electronic product?"
"Not entirely." Meng Huaiqing leaned over and kissed her, "Electronic products are one part, and the other part is what you are using now."
Qin Xiang was shocked, "Condoms?"
"Yeah." Qin Xiang covered her mouth, "Let's talk about it later."
It is not appropriate to talk seriously when playing poker. Meng Huaiqing doesn't mind her talking about dirty things, but he doesn't want to hear about these work matters.
Even if the power went out, the two of them still played this game in this way or that.
In the end, it was too hot, and the two of them took a shower. After the shower,
the power came back, and the air conditioner started again. Meng Huaiqing opened the drawer and handed her a condom.
"In fact, every industry in the domestic market today has a huge gap, and you can develop as long as you seize the opportunity. But later we discovered a problem. Even with the implementation of family planning, there are still many people who get pregnant unexpectedly. It's okay to have one child these days, just apply to your employer as soon as possible. If it's a second child, especially for urban families, it would be a disaster." Meng Huaiqing spoke in a steady voice, as if he had become the calm Mr. Meng again, and he calmly recounted the fact.
Qin Xiang nodded in agreement, "In the countryside, if the first child is a girl, you can have a second child when you are old enough. But if the first child is a son, you can only have this one. The village women's director will watch the women's every move in the village. Every year, women of childbearing age must go to the town for examinations as required. Once they are found or reported to be pregnant, they will be forced to have an abortion. It's better for those who are young. Although there is harm to the mother, it can be less. Some are even taken to induced labor after six or seven months, which is too pitiful."
This is not only in rural areas, but also in cities. Some people don't want to have children, but they want effective contraceptive measures.
Of course, most rural women choose to get an IUD and sterilize, which is also very harmful to the body.
If Qin Xiang had not considered the harmfulness of sterilization, she would have gone for sterilization long ago.
After she finished speaking, Meng Huaiqing nodded, "In fact, this project was initiated by the capital city government. The country is now in a development stage and has always been concerned about people's livelihood. It is also urgent to solve this problem. After I understood it, I agreed to this project, and these in your hands are the second phase of production. The first batch has been distributed to a large hospital after being tested and found to have no problems."
Qin Xiang agreed, thought for a while and said, "Then if I can import some goods in your name?"
Meng Huaiqing raised his eyebrows, "You won't sell them in the store, right?"
"I do have this idea. After all, this thing can protect women from many problems. But I'm afraid that if I release it, I'll be reported as a hooligan." Qin Xiang laughed, "I want to buy a batch in the name of each person and send it to the women in the village through the name of the village clinic."
These problems were also what caught her attention when Tanaka Mei's incident happened. Although Tanaka Mei was hateful and she had some of her own fault in this matter, how many women are suffering from such troubles.
Meng Huaiqing nodded, "Of course, I'll have someone arrange to go directly to meet Secretary Qin later."
Qin Xiang nodded, and suddenly realized the troops again, "You even know who Secretary Qin is."
Meng Huaiqing raised his eyebrows, "As your boyfriend, isn't it normal for me to know Secretary Qin?" Seeing Qin Xiang frowning, he hurriedly explained, "Your father mentioned it when we chatted last time. The village secretary is a relative of yours within the fifth degree of mourning." With
this explanation, Qin Xiang understood, but that was all in the first month of the year. I didn't expect Meng Huaiqing to remember such a detailed question. After
Qin Xiang finished saying this, it was getting late. He touched his stomach and didn't want to go to the store anymore. "I'm hungry. Are you interested in having dinner together, Mr. Meng?"
Cooking in such a hot day is impossible. Although it is a bit difficult to go out for a meal, it is better than doing it yourself.
But Meng Huaiqing was already prepared, "The chef will be here to cook in a while."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. Five people from the chef team came to cook.
Fortunately, the kitchen of the courtyard house is not small, otherwise five people would not be able to turn around.
The five people have a clear division of labor and move quickly. Qin Xiang felt hot at a glance and hurried back to the house.
This damn weather, it's so hot in just the beginning of June, you can imagine how hot it will be in July and August.
Fortunately, there is air conditioning. She wants to move in, at least she can sleep at night. Living in school at night is simply a disaster, the space is small, and it is extremely hot and stuffy.
The chef quickly prepared dinner. Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing each had a glass of red wine. Meng Huaiqing also ordered two la zhu for the occasion. Drinking red wine and eating Chinese food is a special experience.
In the evening, Meng Huaiqing refused to leave and insisted on playing poker with Qin Xiang.
Well, since there is air conditioning, let's play.
When they returned to school the next day, Ding Xiang excitedly said to Qin Xiang, "Qin Xiang, let me tell you, all the teachers and students in the school should thank you enough."
Qin Xiang was puzzled, "I saved the world?"
Several people were at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and Qin Xiang found that many classmates in the class were looking at Qin Xiang.
Qin Xiang was even more confused, "What happened?"
Guan Yuping said, "Mr. Meng donated a batch of fans to the school, and the workers came to install them today."
Qin Xiang was stunned.
Meilin beside her added, "The school is also very considerate. They started the installation directly from our art college, and they started from the fashion design major. If nothing goes wrong, we will be able to use the fans when we go back at noon."
Qin Xiang: "..."
So the air conditioning was just a drizzle yesterday, and the real surprise was in the school.
Fortunately, the knowledge that they were in love did not spread to the whole school, otherwise she would have been surrounded by students like a panda.
Even so, Qin Xiang was still forced to accept a wave of grateful eyes from students majoring in fashion design.
In such a look, the eyes of Bei Nannan and Fu Yunmei were a little sour. The whole person was sour as if soaked in vinegar.
Since the serious punishment, Bei Nannan has been quieter. A while ago, she had a complete quarrel with Fu Yunmei. Fu Yunmei wanted to ease the relationship, but Bei Nannan had stopped talking and ignored Fu Yunmei.
Qin Xiang ignored them. It’s okay to be sour behind her back, but don’t be so in front of her.
Because they were thinking about the fan, several people went straight back to the dormitory to eat at noon. When they opened the door, they saw that the fan was indeed installed. They pulled the switch rope and the fan whirred. The three blades whirred, and the cool wind blew on the skin to dissipate a lot of heat.
It is worth mentioning that this fan is not a large-blade fan with a large area. After all, that kind of fan is dangerous in dormitories with upper and lower floors. This fan is small in area, and the head can rotate and is wrapped.
Qin Xiang observed it carefully and it seemed to be brought from Gangcheng.
There are so many dormitories in the entire Tsinghua campus, and every dormitory is of this specification, which must cost a lot of money.
If it is really to install fans for her, and to rationalize this matter, all the dormitories are installed.
Then does this count as winning the championship for the beauty?
Several roommates have already started to sigh, "It's a blessing to have a partner like this."
"Such a relationship is so enviable."
"Of course, you are rich, beautiful, gentle and considerate. I guess all the girls in the school envy you."
Several people sat at the table and spread out their positions and opened their lunch boxes. The wind blew for a while and it became cool, which was very comfortable. It was much better than smelling the stuffy smell in the cafeteria.
Qin Xiang looked up at the fan and felt that Meng Huaiqing was so considerate that she couldn't be someone's girlfriend for nothing.
So at noon, she took a taxi to the vicinity of Meng Huaiqing's company, found a hotel, ordered a lot of iced sour plum soup and some food, and took people to Meng Huaiqing's office.
It had been a long time since the last time. This time, the security guard at the door only asked what was going on inside and let Qin Xiang lead the group in.
After walking a few steps, Meng Huaiqing hurried out with a look of joy on his face, "Why are you here?"
After all, the two had just separated in the morning, and last night's intimacy had made their relationship even warmer. Even though Meng Huaiqing was a calm person, his eyes were filled with joy at this moment.
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "I came to visit Mr. Meng." She whispered, "And check on him."
Meng Huaiqing looked at her meaningfully, "I couldn't ask for more."
The two went upstairs together, and the people from the restaurant also carried all the things up. Now everyone in the office knew that the boss's girlfriend came to visit the boss and brought them sour plum soup and lunch.
Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing entered his office. Qin Xiang said, "Thank you for arranging the fans. They are very cool."
Meng Huaiqing smiled, "I hope you don't blame me for acting on my own."
Qin Xiang answered honestly, "Yes, a little, but since you are also doing good things for the school, I won't say anything. After all, compared with donating to the library, donating a batch of fans seems to be just a drizzle. The school remembers your kindness. I guess they will take the opportunity to promote you."
After that, she hugged Meng Huaiqing and said sincerely, "Thank you for your consideration. But I hope this kind of thing will happen less in the future."
Meng Huaiqing didn't hesitate and nodded, "Okay, I'll discuss it with you in advance next time."
This money is not worth mentioning to Meng Huaiqing, but it is a large sum of money to others. Meng Huaiqing did this, and those who knew about their relationship at school would inevitably make guesses. Qin Xiang didn't want to be the focus of the crowd.
Qin Xiang hummed, "Let's have dinner together?"
"Okay."
The food in the restaurant tasted good, two meats and two vegetables, two spicy and two light. Qin Xiang's sour plum juice was iced, while Meng Huaiqing's was specially prepared at room temperature.
Before lunch was finished, Assistant Liu came to remind Meng Huaiqing that he had to go to the municipal government to attend a meeting.
Although Meng Huaiqing was unhappy, he still said regretfully, "Let's go, I'll take you home."
Qin Xiang did not refuse, and got up to go out. Meng Huaiqing held her back, "Don't worry, I'll change my clothes."
The office was equipped with an air conditioner, and Meng Huaiqing was wearing long sleeves and long pants.
Qin Xiang followed him into the living room and watched him take off his clothes piece by piece.
To be honest, he is worthy of being called a male dog waist.
Meng Huaiqing's figure is really good.
"Have you worked out on purpose?"
Meng Huaiqing shook his head, "It's not deliberate exercise, but I have persisted in exercise for a long time. After a long time, I have muscle lines."
He was very satisfied with his muscles. He changed into a decent suit to cover his muscles and look so refreshing.
Qin Xiang's mouth twitched, "Not hot?"
"Of course it's hot." Qin Xiang was helpless, "But in important occasions, it's better to pay attention."
Qin Xiang didn't think so, "Leaders will also feel hot."
Meng Huaiqing turned around and looked at her, "Does it look good?"
Qin Xiang nodded, "It looks good, it looks good and makes people want to commit a crime."
After that, she turned around and left.
Meng Huaiqing followed her and chuckled, "Are you still living on campus next semester?"
Qin Xiang understood what she meant, but nodded, "Yes, it's more convenient to live on campus without having to commute."
"Then why don't you consider buying a car?"
Qin Xiang was surprised, "Driving to and from school? Forget it, there's nothing else to do with that time."
Meng Huaiqing was helpless, and suddenly said, "I may have to stay in Hong Kong City for a while in the second half of the year."
Qin Xiang paused, this meant that the project in the capital was temporarily completed, after all, his base was in Hong Kong City.
Although he was reluctant, he would not stop it, "That's good, a familiar environment."
The two did not say anything else, went out and went downstairs together, and remained silent until they got in the car.
Although Miao Sheng, who was driving, had already zipped up his car, he was still curious and glanced at the two of them through the rearview mirror.
When they arrived near the school, Qin Xiang got off the car and said goodbye to him, "See you later."
Although they were both in the capital, they were separated by half of the city, and neither of them knew when they would meet again .
There was nothing they could do, because they were both busy people.
Thinking of Meng Huaiqing's attitude just now, she couldn't help but sigh. Did Meng Huaiqing want her to stay?
She wouldn't keep him, and they would meet again if they were destined to. She didn't believe that Meng Huaiqing could give up the mainland market.
The condom project has come to an end, but there is still the development of electronic products. In China, the capital and Pengcheng are the best places for the development of electronic technology. No matter where you choose, it is within China, so it is not impossible to have a date.
There is nothing to worry about.
The hot summer could not stop the enthusiasm of businessmen. At the end of June, Tan Xiu and her team had already bought the property rights of the fifth store. Qin Xiang specially went there on the weekend to handle the property transfer, and then she started working in full swing.
Qin Xiang saw that Tan Xiu had lost a lot of weight, and couldn't help but said with concern, "Although you are anxious to open a new store, don't be too tired. It's hot, so you should rest when you need to."
In just two months, Tan Xiu looked a little thinner, but her eyes were particularly bright, and she was particularly energetic and full of energy. Not only her, but also several other store employees. After four cooperations, the fifth cooperation was more handy and there was no panic in the arrangements.
Tan Xiu chuckled, "Everyone wants to open a branch store as soon as possible, especially when they heard that the first two stores have already opened and are doing very well, they are eager to open the store they are responsible for. And it's only June now, not the hottest time yet, so it's really important to finish the work as soon as possible."
Qin Xiang felt their hard work and encouraged them again before leaving.
It's a pity that time is too tight, otherwise she would have wanted to go to Ningcheng to take a look.
After the first batch of funds was transferred, the factory resumed production, and now it is continuously shipping clothes to the capital.
Naturally, Yangcheng has not given up and has been purchasing goods. Mi Hongjun also went to Yangcheng a few days after the store in Jinshi opened. With the introduction of Guan Zhihong, she got to know the incoming leader. Of course, she also knew that everything was easy to talk about before the other party took office, but it might not be the case later.
So Mi Hongjun went there, in addition to contacting the new leader in advance to give gifts and build relationships, but also to open up new suppliers.
Guan Zhihong felt a little ashamed and specially introduced a few companies to her, and is now in contact with them.
Qin Xiang wanted to go, but it was already June, and the exam week would start at the end of the month, and she would be able to have a holiday in early July.
After completing the formalities here, Qin Xiang hurried back to school.
Knowing that Qin Xiang had won another store, the others were already numb and envious.
Qin Xiang's industry is now something they can only think about.
Qin Xiang is very busy. In addition to business matters, she also has to design clothes, but the demand is huge, and she can't do it alone. She did receive some, but some were not ideal and had to be modified.
Finally, Guan Yuping gave Qin Xiang an idea, "Why don't you go directly to our department and hold a clothing design competition, so that sophomores and juniors can also participate. What do you think?"
Qin Xiang thought about it and it made sense. Before, she had always relied on her own connections and classmates to receive some, but the quality was uneven.
So Qin Xiang took advantage of the break to find a counselor.
Li Minghui certainly knew that Qin Xiang was starting a business as a self-employed person.
To be honest, he didn't approve of it. I think it is a very rare thing to be admitted to Tsinghua University. It is irrational to become a self-employed person instead of studying hard and waiting for graduation assignment.
Although money is important
, this is the era. Even if the country is promoting and encouraging it, the public still prefers the iron rice bowl of state-owned units.
Students from schools like Tsinghua University, even if they do not stay in the capital, can be arranged in a very good unit in the local provincial capital.
Li Minghui cannot understand it.
So when he heard Qin Xiang's idea, Li Minghui did not agree, and even reminded Qin Xiang implicitly, "Although you are only a freshman, the final exams are coming soon, and there will be more courses in the second and third years. As a student, you should still focus on your studies. When you graduate, you can go to any unit, so why waste time now?"
This is probably what it means to talk about things that don't go well.
Although Qin Xiang was a little disappointed, she didn't explain too much to the counselor or talk about those big truths. She
just responded twice and went back.
When they got downstairs and told the results, Guan Yuping couldn't help frowning, "I think this is a good thing. It not only allows you to receive good design drawings, but also allows students to improve their level and show their own designed clothes. What's the problem?"
Meilin couldn't help curling her lips, "Our counselor is young, but has the mind of an antique." As
they talked, they didn't notice a thin old man passing by. He
was very curious about what they said and stopped to listen.
Qin Xiang was helpless, "In this case, I'll just collect some privately. If I raise the price, who would be unhappy? By the way, if you know any students majoring in fashion design at Capital University, please ask them for me. As long as it's suitable, I'll collect it and the price is negotiable."
But seriously speaking, the clothes designed by the school's students are sometimes not so perfect, but the price is really suitable.
Moreover, the clothes designed by students are mostly lively and youthful, which can better match the positioning of her store's customer base.
Of course, another reason is that it is cheaper to collect design drafts from students.
Well, there is no business without fraud, and profit is the main thing.
She thought this was a win-win situation, but Li Minghui obviously had his own concerns. He didn't even report to the department and the college, and called her back directly.
Although it was a bit regrettable, it was not unacceptable. Let's leave it at that.
Who knew that after being rejected in the morning, Li Minghui came to Qin Xiang in the afternoon and said, "I consulted with several professors about your proposal this morning, and finally decided to do it. You have to perfect the details yourself and make a practical plan and submit it to the college, and the college will host this campus design competition."
