The next day.

Song Fuyu was invited to attend the dinner party hosted by Mayor Wu.

Mayor Wu knew that there were four people in their group this time. One more person would just mean one more pair of chopsticks, so he invited them all.

"Xiao Yu, I'm not from the studio, and I haven't made any contribution. Is it wrong for me to go along?"

Wu Hong has never liked attending such dinner parties. She usually avoids them whenever possible and stays at home to relax.

If Song Fuyu hadn't been there this time, she wouldn't have considered it.

“Who says you didn’t contribute anything?!”

"You are the spiritual pillar of our studio!"

"If it weren't for you, Aunt Wu, I don't know how many people would have come to cause trouble during the initial establishment period."

"The Lu City troops took 5% of the dividends. As the wife of Commander Li, he is not available to come, so it is not too much for you to attend on his behalf."

"And I was thinking that if you were here, we could just leave after dinner and Mayor Wu wouldn't have anything to say."

She held Aunt Wu's hand and acted coquettishly.

With someone of her status around, if she didn't want to drink, she wouldn't drink. If she didn't want to eat, she would just get up and leave. No one dared to say anything.

"You, you, I am just a tool."

"Hehe, since they're treating me, I'd rather eat it than not."

The place they went to eat this time was quite special. Although it was also called a state-owned restaurant, it was a rare state-owned restaurant with private rooms.

She had been to state-owned restaurants in several cities before, and all of them only had a lobby. Even if there was a second floor, there were no private rooms.

"Director Xiao Song, long time no see."

Mayor Wu walked forward and greeted Song Fuyu enthusiastically.

Now this little girl is the biological mother of their Qin City. If he could not be so averse to feudal dregs, he really wanted to worship her and burn three incense sticks every day to prove his piety.

"It's been a while. You seem to be in better spirits than last time."

The last time she saw him was after the Haishi trade fair, when she came over for a meeting.

Although Wu Hao was happy at that time, he was not as happy as he is now. At this moment, the corners of his mouth were almost stretched to his temples.

"Thanks to you."

"These changes were brought about by you. If it weren't for your contribution to our Qin City, I would probably still be worried about the economy of our Qin City."

Song Fuyu especially wanted to say, if the economy is bad, shouldn’t the people in the Municipal Economic Commission be the ones who should be more worried?

"You are exaggerating. My personal ability is limited. The current result is the result of the joint efforts of our Feifan Garment Factory, Qin City Garment Factory, and all the staff of Qin City Municipal Government."

"Many of these things are thanks to Mayor Wu who created the conditions for us. Otherwise, with our limited abilities, we would not have been able to achieve the results of this market fair."

"Alas... it's a pity that my family lives in Lu City. If I could live in Qin City for a while, I would really like to learn from Mayor Wu some of the areas where I am currently lacking..."

She put herself in a humble position and kept praising Wu Hao in various ways. People who didn't know would think that he was the one who signed the Guangshi order.

"Quick, stop standing outside, let's go inside and talk."

Although Wu Hao knew that Song Fuyu was intentionally complimenting him, who wouldn't want to hear more nice words?

"Director Song, I don't know the name of the comrade who came with you. Please help introduce him to me."

"I was just busy talking and didn't think about this. Thanks to Mayor Wu for reminding me."

"The two people sitting on my right are the two team leaders of our Feifan Garment Factory, Comrade Liu Aihua and Comrade Wu Daniu."

"They both have decades of experience in the garment industry. They led the employees in the early planning of our Feifan Garment Factory and the various steps of production after its establishment."

"If I have other things to do and cannot get away, Comrade Liu Aihua and Comrade Wu Daniu will come here to connect with the garment factory."

Liu Aihua and Wu Danniu couldn't help but clench their hands under the table as they listened to her introduction.

They have decades of experience in the clothing industry, how come I don’t know about it?

But in this situation, they could not offend Fu Yu, and they had to accept everything she said.

"Mayor Wu, I wonder if you have ever heard of our Feifan Garment Factory?"

She did not rush to introduce Aunt Wu, but first asked Wu Hao what he knew about them.

"I know a little bit. Lao Cao introduced it to me before."

"Since you know something about this, you should also know that our clothing factory is actually cooperating with the military."

Wu Hao nodded.

It was because he knew that their factory had a military background that he looked at Song Fuyu with even higher regard.

Being so young yet having such a background, he is definitely not an ordinary person.

"Our factory is currently located in the Lushi Military District, which is managed by Commander Li. The person sitting on my left is Commander Li's wife, and she is your relative."

When Wu Hao heard Wu Hong's background, he wanted to stand up and greet her again, but was stopped by Song Fuyu.

"Mayor Wu, it's time for dinner. How about we order first?"

"Oh, look at me, I almost forgot to ask you to come over. I'll go get the menu now."

After the meal, Song Fuyu and the others ate very comfortably, but Wu Hao, the host, ate very cautiously.

Originally, he wanted to use this meal as an excuse to see if he could renegotiate the profit-sharing ratio with Song Fuyu. Even if it increased by one percentage point, their Qin City's foreign exchange would increase accordingly.

But with Commander Li's wife around, he was too embarrassed to speak again.

If they offended the military district leaders, they could abandon Qin City at any time and choose clothing factories in other cities to cooperate with.

Including the initial polite conversation, the entire meal took less than an hour and a half.

"Mayor Wu, thank you for your hospitality. Next time you go to Lu City, please let me know and I will host you."

"No problem, there will be a chance."

After parting with Mayor Wu, Wu Da Nv couldn't help laughing as she thought about what Song Fuyu had just said when he introduced them.

"Fuyu, when did Aihua and I have more than ten years of experience in the clothing industry?"

"When I heard what you said, I almost couldn't help laughing out loud. I almost got hurt."

"You all have been able to make clothes since you were young, so you are in the clothing industry. You are in your thirties now, and I still think more than ten years is not enough."

"But the clothes we made before were just simple splicing. They are completely different from those made by garment factories."

"It doesn't matter. As long as the other party believes it, it's true."

"He wouldn't send someone to investigate the authenticity of your story just because he doubts whether you have ten years of experience. That would be too boring of him."

"If I say you are newbies, how can he, as a mayor, trust you to handle a project worth hundreds of millions of dollars?"

"So, when you go out, your identity is given by yourself. Sometimes you not only have to convince others of what you say, but more importantly, you have to convince yourself to believe it."

"Xiao Yu is right."

"Since ancient times, getting along with people has been the most difficult thing, especially when it involves money transactions, which makes it even more difficult."

"She is willing to teach you two step by step, which proves that you have potential and are trustworthy. You can't rely on her to complete everything. You must also spend some time and energy to study the twists and turns involved. Try to be able to stand on your own as soon as possible, so that she doesn't have to worry about everything."

"We know."

"It's okay, the two sisters-in-law are doing very well now."

“Everything has a process. As long as today is better than yesterday, it is a victory.”
