Chapter 165

Qin Xiang was stunned. She didn't expect Meng Huaiqing to invite her over.

She thought about it and shook her head, "Sorry, I'm busy during the summer vacation. I'm afraid I can't keep the appointment."

Although Meng Huaiqing was disappointed with this result, he was prepared. He nodded, "Okay, then I'll try to come back as soon as possible."

This is because the business is in an inconvenient place between two places, and it requires long distance travel. His base is in Gangcheng, and the Jiang family is watching him, so he has to go back.

Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay."

Meng Huaiqing went out, cut a plate of watermelon and handed it to Qin Xiang with a toothpick, "Try it, the suburban melon farmers came to the city to sell, I happened to meet them, it looks fresh, it should be sweet."

Eating watermelon in summer is naturally enjoyable, especially when it is chilled in well water, it is more delicious. Qin Xiang ate a piece of it with his raised hand, and his eyes lit up, "It's really sweet."

Unexpectedly, the man moved closer, "Then I'll try it too."

But he didn't take the watermelon to taste it, but kissed it, tasting the taste in Qin Xiang's mouth.

The two kissed each other, and the hot weather couldn't resist the passion, and the small umbrella naturally played its due role.

Qin Xiang thought, it seems good for the two of them to stay like this in the future. Show up when needed, and work hard for your career when not needed, it's better than being bored together every day.

The two had to go out the next day, and after this nonsense, Meng Huaiqing took the initiative to let Qin Xiang go.

When the next day dawned, the two got up, Meng Huaiqing drove the car, and the bodyguards followed behind, and the group set off.

Of course, the first stop is the storefronts and wholesale city businesses in the capital.

The relationship between the two is no secret. The employees in the store became calm after experiencing curiosity and doubt. They looked at Meng Huaiqing more at the beginning, but now they look normal.

But when they went to the wholesale city, they saw Na Qiang from a distance, his face was not good, he looked at them gloomily for a few times and turned away.

Mi Hongjun whispered to Qin Xiang, "Although Na Qiang has been sour and angry at times, he didn't look for trouble. He probably hates Mr. Meng."

Qin Xiang suddenly felt a toothache, so she still took advantage of her.

Qin Xiang was helpless, "We don't need to explain anything, just do our own thing. If you need to purchase goods from Yangcheng, please contact Guan Zhibin. I will go to Ningcheng soon."

Mi Hongjun agreed, "Okay." He paused and said a little embarrassedly, "By the way, Jingjing will come to the capital in a few days."

Seeing his beaming face, Qin Xiang understood and was surprised, "She will be transferred to the capital?"

"Yes." Mi Hongjun said excitedly, "Go directly to the National Taiwan University."

He rubbed his hands nervously, "Sister, do you think her family will think that I am not worthy of Jingjing? After all, I have only graduated from junior high school."

Qin Xiang saw that he was indeed a little uneasy, so she said to him, "Haven't you already signed up for night school? If you have signed up, study hard. After you get your high school diploma, go and take the college entrance examination. If you can pass, go. If you can't pass, go and study. In addition, it is also a good way to judge whether a person is good or bad. It's not just about academic qualifications, the most important thing is ability. Improve yourself and don't let the gap between you and the other person be too big. Don't make her say anything that you don't understand. Then there will be no problem. Jingjing is working hard for the future of both of you. You have to work hard to be worthy of her efforts. Don't you think so?"

Mi Hongjun nodded quickly, "I know."

Mi Hongjun is not as confident as her third brother on this point. His third brother is obviously in a dominant role in the matter of feelings. Regardless of academic qualifications, both of them are on an equal starting line.

Mi Hongjun is a little sensitive in his character. To put it bluntly, it is still related to his growth environment. But it is also a good thing to motivate him to make progress.

In the past six months, Qin Xiang actually participated in management less, mostly Mi Hongjun was in charge. Although he is young, he is getting more and more stable in doing things, and Qin Xiang is very relieved.

After giving the instructions, Qin Xiang went upstairs to take a look around, and talked with He Liping again. After understanding the funds she had on hand, she prepared to set off.

Unexpectedly, when she came out of the wholesale city, she saw a jeep parked not far away, and a familiar figure was standing there.

Qin Xiang didn't expect to see He Chenghua, it seemed that she hadn't seen him for a long time.

This person was like an ordinary passer-by in her life, and seeing him would not cause any waves.

She nodded to each other, and then looked at Meng Huaiqing, "Let's go."

Meng Huaiqing naturally held her hand, and the two went to the car.

Not far away, He Chenghua stared at their tightly clasped hands, threw the cigarette in his hand hard on the ground, and then raised his foot to crush it.

"Brother Hua, I'm not saying that, a woman like this..."

Before he could finish his words, the man kicked him in the chest with a fierce look in his eyes, "You think you can say that about a woman like this?" After that

, He Chenghua strode to the front of Meng Huaiqing's car and banged on the window.

Meng Huaiqing rolled down the window and frowned slightly, "Mr. He, is there something wrong?" Miao Sheng

was driving the car, Meng Huaiqing and Qin Xiang were sitting in the back seat.

He Chenghua glanced at the two of them, and finally set his sights on Qin Xiang, "Qin Xiang, let's talk."

Qin Xiang shook her head with a smile on her lips, "Sorry, I'm in a hurry."

After that, she patted the seat in front of her, Miao Sheng started the car and drove away.

He Chenghua stood there and watched the car go away, kicked the rocks on the side of the road angrily, and felt even more irritable.

In the past six months, he worked hard to take on tasks and complete them, so that he would not have any free time. However, when he occasionally had free time, he still could not stop thinking about this woman.

When you think about it, the time they knew each other was actually very short, but God knows why this woman was like a long-standing thing in his mind.

Half a year could not make him forget her, and even various tasks still could not numb him.

He knew exactly why Na Qiang asked him to come. He did not want to come, but he really could not control his feet. He

had not been back for half a year, but he saw such a scene. Now he really had all kinds of emotions.

Na Qiang had been kicked by He Chenghua and now he had gotten up, but he did not dare to say anything more.

His purpose was not good at all, he just wanted to let He Chenghua see that Qin Xiang had hooked up with another rich man, so as to anger He Chenghua and use He Chenghua to deal with Qin Xiang, the cheap woman.

But he didn't expect that even when he saw Qin Xiang with other men, He Chenghua still acted like this, which was really not like a man.

Na Qiang looked at He Chenghua from a distance and decided to add fuel to the fire, "Qin Xiang has already bought a house and has been living with this Boss Meng. My friend has seen the two of them coming out of a yard early in the morning. They were very close. Just last night, they were also living together." As

soon as he finished speaking, He Chenghua looked at Na Qiang with a cold gaze.

Na Qiang's stomach still hurt badly, but he continued, "They have lived together for a long time. Qin Xiang is a divorced woman, so she doesn't care about such things. They live together without getting married. Why bother with such a woman, Brother Hua? She doesn't deserve you."

"She can seduce Hong Kong businessmen with her beauty, and maybe she has other lovers..."

"Shut up." He Chenghua looked at Na Qiang and gritted his teeth, "If you continue to talk, I can't guarantee that I can control myself from punishing you."

Na Qiang shrank back at his murderous eyes. They were all people who lived in the city. Na Qiang knew very well what kind of person this was, the He family and He Chenghua. Even though he was now a battalion-level person, he couldn't hide He Chenghua's ruthlessness. This was a man who had been on the battlefield and seen blood.

He Chenghua returned to the car and slammed his hands on the steering wheel. How

could he not know what was said?

The more he knew, the harder it was to accept, and it was hard to reconcile it with the Qin Xiang in his heart.

It would be fine if they got married, but what about now?

Meng Huaiqing had made it clear that he had no intention of marrying Qin Xiang, so why should Qin Xiang hang herself on this man?

He really wanted to tell Qin Xiang that it didn't matter if she didn't want to have children, because he had many brothers in his family and he didn't need a child to carry on the family line, but it was obvious that Qin Xiang didn't want to give him this opportunity, and didn't want to consider him even if following Meng Huaiqing would not work out.

This was what made him most uncomfortable.

Qin Xiang didn't know how uncomfortable He Chenghua was, and she didn't even take it to heart. Meng Huaiqing would not quarrel with Qin Xiang over such a small matter. After the car started, he took out a lunch box and said, "Eat something."

Qin Xiang was surprised, "When did you prepare it?"

Meng Huaiqing smiled, "Miao Sheng prepared it."

Qin Xiang looked at Miao Sheng, who was driving seriously and never talking nonsense, and nodded, "Not bad, it tastes good."

The snacks were from a well-known old brand in the capital, and the taste was very good.

Meng Huaiqing also ate a piece, and ate it elegantly without dropping any residue.

Qin Xiang couldn't help but sigh, "Are the second-generation rich like you guys engraved with beauty and elegance into their bones?"

Meng Huaiqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "That's not the case."

Hearing this, Qin Xiang raised his eyebrows and said maliciously, "Why don't you also drop some scum and try it with a mouth full of scum?"

Meng Huaiqing was stunned for a while before saying, "It's not impossible."

He stretched out his hand and pressed on the front seat. A partition slowly rose up, completely separating the front seat from the back seat. Then he reached out to take She took a piece of cake, took a big bite, and then looked up, "Is it done?"

Qin Xiang looked at him blankly, couldn't help laughing, and nodded, "Yes."

She leaned over and kissed him, "This is the taste of fireworks in the world."

Meng Huaiqing ate the cake in two or three bites, and said happily, "If I had known that I could get Xiangxiang's active kiss, I would have done it a long time ago."

Qin Xiang rolled her eyes at her, "You are beautiful."

But the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise a little.

Soon they arrived in Jinshi. The branch in Jinshi was the first to open, but the house was rented, so they simply rented it for a long time and didn't worry about other things.

It was not yet noon when we arrived at the store, and there were not many people in the store. Qin Xiang talked to the store manager, looked through the account book, looked at the cash flow, encouraged the clerk, and then talked to Zhao Wenna who worked there for a while.

Zhao Wenna came here not only to make money but also to learn. When Qin Xiang came, she took out her notebook and said, "I have an idea, take a look."

The next season is autumn and winter, and Zhao Wenna also conceived autumn and winter clothes.

Zhao Wenna has a high talent in designing clothes. She became more excited when the clothes could be put into production. She also worked very hard in school during this period. Although the clothes she designed are still in prototype, they are already eye-catching.

Qin Xiang praised, "Very good, but you still have to go to the library more often when you are free to see if there are any foreign magazines. The details still need to be revised."

Zhao Wenna was very happy to receive Qin Xiang's praise, "Okay, I got it."

Qin Xiang and Zhao Wenna finished talking at noon and invited the staff to have lunch. In the afternoon, they set off for the next destination.

The distance from the capital to Ningcheng is not short. There are seven branches along the way. You can only visit two branches a day at most. By the time you arrive at the provincial capital, several days have passed.

Qin Xiang meant that she would take a bus to Ningcheng by herself, but Meng Huaiqing thought that since they were already here, it would be better to accompany her to Ningcheng for another walk.

Seeing Meng Huaiqing's serious and reluctant look, Qin Xiang couldn't say no. This time they might be separated for several months.

She nodded, "Okay."

So they didn't stay in the provincial capital and went directly to Ningcheng.

But it only took a few hours from the provincial capital to Ningcheng, and the driving speed was fast, so they arrived in Ningcheng before dark.

Perhaps because they were about to part, Qin Xiang was also reluctant to leave. She didn't go to see Deputy Director He at night, but strolled on the streets of Ningcheng with Meng Huaiqing, had dinner, and hugged each other when they returned to the hotel.

Meng Huaiqing was more violent than before this night, less gentle, as if he wanted to rub Qin Xiang's whole body into his body.

The consequences of clinging to death are also serious.

I couldn't get up the next day, and my legs were sore.

Meng Huaiqing has a driver, but Qin Xiang is alone.

Meng Huaiqing said, "Do you want me to stay with you for two more days?"

Qin Xiang was shocked and quickly refused, "No, I will die in bed if you stay."

Meng Huaiqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I mean to accompany you to finish the things here, what are you thinking, am I so hungry?" "

No?" Qin Xiang looked at him with disdain, "I don't know who it is..."

Paying attention to Miao Sheng standing not far away, Qin Xiang swallowed his words and waved his hand with disdain, "Hurry up, someone will come to pick me up soon."

Meng Huaiqing was a little hurt, "Okay, I'll call you later." He seemed to think of something and said, "Or you can call me?"

Qin Xiang nodded hurriedly, "Okay." I

didn't expect Meng Huaiqing to be so sticky.

But it seems not bad to come here once in a while, and it's quite useful.

Not long after the car left, Miao Xiaofeng also came to pick up Qin Xiang.

Miao Xiaofeng borrowed the car from the factory and drove it himself. Qin Xiang was surprised, "You actually learned to drive."

Miao Xiaofeng smiled and said, "I think it will be useful in the future, so I learned it when I was free. It's been a long time."

Qin Xiang agreed, "Not bad, it's good to know how to drive."

The two talked about the situation in the factory on the way. Miao Xiaofeng said, "There were some objections at the beginning. Some family members of the leadership team even brought people to make trouble, and even instigated behind the scenes, but they were all suppressed by Director He. After the first month's salary was paid, no one was willing to be provoked. Everyone knows that they rely on Xianglian to pay their salaries. Now no one is making trouble, the leadership team is also very serious, and the workers are working hard. It can be said that it is on the right track. "

Miao Xiaofeng is Qin Xiang's person. After he thought about it during the Chinese New Year, he changed a lot.

It's only been more than two months, and Miao Xiaofeng is in high spirits and looks very confident.

Qin Xiang was very happy, "That's good, you are my man, I will leave this to you."

Miao Xiaofeng nodded, "Boss, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down."

Qin Xiang said cryptically, "This is just the first step. I will open my own factory in the future. You should accumulate more experience now, learn more, and go around more when you have nothing to do."

"Okay." Miao Xiaofeng has been with Qin Xiang for a long time and understands what Qin Xiang means.

This is for her own good. When Qin Xiang really opens a factory in the future, she has experience and ability, how can she not be reused? Others don't have this opportunity.

Qin Xiang asked about Mao Yuxiang again.

Miao Xiaofeng said hurriedly, "Yuxiang is not here. She went out to buy fabrics with the people in the purchasing department. There is a kind of fabric that needs to go to Yangcheng. We have been looking for it for several days."

Qin Xiang nodded and asked other questions carefully. Miao Xiaofeng also answered.

Overall, it is indeed on the right track as Miao Xiaofeng said. Everything is developing in a good direction.

When she arrived at the factory, Director He heard her coming and came out to greet her personally. Some workers saw Qin Xiang and looked around curiously.

Director He said happily, "I missed you so much after not seeing you for such a long time. If I hadn't known you had to prepare for your final exams, I would have called you to talk."

Seeing Director He's smiling face, it was known that she had been doing well recently. She smiled and said, "Every time I have a final exam, I don't have the energy to care about other things. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if I accidentally failed the course."

Those who can go to Tsinghua University are the best in the country. No one would waste time. It is very difficult to stand out from a group of top students and get good grades.

Director He nodded, "I understand."

The two went to Director He's office. Director He asked the secretary to make tea, and then told Qin Xiang about the factory. "It must be difficult at the beginning. Not to mention the OEM, it took a lot of effort to clear the inventory."

Director He couldn't be blamed for sighing about this.

She got to the top because she had the means to unite the workers in the factory, but the new leadership team came up and had various ideas about the handling of inventory.

Director He accepted Qin Xiang's suggestion to reduce the price of the clothes in stock, but she didn't just let the sales department come forward.

Instead, he called on the workers in the factory who were not selected to work for the OEM to claim the clothes and distribute them. The factory gave them a price of four yuan per piece, leaving them a profit of one yuan.

Most of these clothes are jackets and trousers, which can be worn in spring, summer, autumn and winter. They can be worn as coats in winter and as single jackets in spring. They cannot be sold in the city, but there is still a market in remote rural areas.

At the beginning, no one claimed them, so Director He asked his relatives, He Liping's parents, to claim some of them and sell them. They actually made money. After advertising, more people came to claim them.

They were not limited to Ningcheng, but also went to some surrounding counties. The result is obvious. No matter it is the residents in the surrounding area or the remote rural areas, as long as the price is reduced to a certain level, people will be interested. Young people like new styles, but older people prefer clothes that are durable and cheap.

So clothes that cost five yuan a piece sell very quickly.

Because they made money, many family members of factory workers also wanted to claim them and sell them. But there was no way. This was for the welfare of the factory workers, and the factory rejected this request.

After two months, Director He also realized how important it was to mobilize the enthusiasm of the workers. No one was lazy and no one complained. They wished they could claim more. After

two months, the inventory was cleared, and the workers who were not selected also made a lot of money.

Although the factory is still unable to fully resume work, at least life can continue.

In the past two months, Director He also asked the deputy director to lead a team to the south to find cooperative enterprises, hoping to do OEM for others, but the situation is not ideal at present, and no suitable partner has been found.

OEM for Qinxiang is still the top priority of the factory's efficiency.

After listening to Director He, Qin Xiang was also quite moved, "You are really amazing. With a director like you in the factory, it will be able to develop sooner or later."

Director He waved his hand and smiled bitterly, "I have no choice. I have no other choice but to go ahead with it."

She paused and said to Qin Xiang, "Actually, I have something else I want to discuss with you. If it is feasible, that will be our second cooperation."
