Shen Mingzhi immediately started promoting the product, "This face cream is amazing! It's moisturizing, and you use it together with our repair lotion. When you apply it to your face, it makes your skin white and smooth, and it doesn't cake up."
"Cake powder? What does that mean?" The woman held the box, looking puzzled.
"It's just something you apply to your face. Naturally, it'll feel like your own skin. But our professionals will be here tomorrow, so you can try it," Shen Mingzhi said with a smile.
"And there are professionals? What kind of people are they?" the woman asked, extremely curious.
"Come early tomorrow. Since you're the first person to ask about our products, I'll have a makeup artist do your makeup for free tomorrow. I guarantee it'll make you look several years younger." Shen Mingzhi's eyes lit up with delight.
Sales is her forte.
"You keep using these words, I don't understand them at all. Where did you get them from?" The woman couldn't help but chuckle, finding Shen Mingzhi quite amusing.
“We’re from Beijing, what about you?” Shen Mingzhi asked her.
“I’m a local from Guangzhou. If I could speak Cantonese, I would love to talk to you,” the woman said.
Most of the people who come to the Canton Fair are from other places. The locals have to change their habit of speaking Cantonese, lest they lose business.
"Really? I can speak a little Cantonese. By the way, are your clothes selling well?" Shen Mingzhi asked in Cantonese for the last sentence.
The woman saw that she spoke Cantonese very fluently and immediately gave her a thumbs up, but still replied in Mandarin, "Not so good. Look at our Hall 8, which is located so far back, there are basically no customers there."
"There might be more guests tomorrow," Shen Mingzhi said to her, and the two walked out of the venue.
At the same time, she also learned that the woman's name was Zheng Huili.
A sole proprietorship, specializing in selling clothes.
Shen Mingzhi wanted to develop her into her own distributor. You know, in this day and age, women who dare to be self-employed must have some skills.
After the two parted ways, Shen Mingzhi said to Da Yang, a worker behind her, "Tomorrow morning, arrange for a makeup artist to do this lady's makeup, so that everyone around can see the strength of our domestic products."
"good!"
Everyone is hoping that this time it can be exported.
Shen Mingzhi led her people to the guesthouse. Shen Xiuzhu had not yet returned. Jiang Huanyu, on the other hand, was leisurely watching the old man at the entrance of the guesthouse play chess.
"You're back? Where's Shen Xiuzhu?" he asked.
“Shen Xiuzhu is busy with something else. How is your hand?” Shen Mingzhi walked over and asked.
Upon seeing Jiang Huanyu, Da Yang and the others immediately turned grim and stood behind Shen Mingzhi.
Seeing this, Shen Mingzhi quickly said, "We fight in Beijing, but we're from the same hometown when we're away from home. If it weren't for him last night, this injury would have been on my stomach."
Upon hearing this, Da Yang quickly asked, "What happened?"
“We’ve been robbed, so be extra careful tonight,” Shen Mingzhi reminded everyone. “I’ll call home, and you can go upstairs with Comrade Jiang to check your accommodations. There are two empty rooms, and Shen Xiuzhu has taken up a bed in one of them, so you can divide them up yourselves.”
There are enough beds, and even some extra.
There are four bunk beds in the room, which is more than enough.
Everyone followed Jiang Huanyu upstairs, while Shen Mingzhi, at the guesthouse, made a phone call home.
After the call connected, Shen Mingzhi said, "Hello, it's me, Shen Mingzhi."
"Oh, you finally made the call! How did it go over there?" As soon as Aunt Wang heard her voice, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's alright, is everything at home? Have the two little ones been arguing?" Shen Mingzhi felt particularly nostalgic when she talked about her two children.
“You weren’t here last night, and they made a ruckus half the night. Sigh, I told them I’d spend some time with them, but they won’t think that way. It’s the same thing,” Wang said with a wry smile.
"Didn't Shao Chen not sleep much last night?" Shen Mingzhi asked with concern.
"Yes, he coaxed her until dawn. Fortunately, nothing much happened in the morning, so she took a nap and went to the construction site in the afternoon."
"Has Shao Chen not returned yet?" Shen Mingzhi asked, but she already knew the answer in her heart.
Hearing this, Aunt Wang smiled helplessly, "Yes, I came back early yesterday and waited for your call. I waited until nine o'clock, but you didn't call back, so I went back to my room disappointed."
"Then have him call this number again later. The guesthouse owner will let me answer it." Although she had only been gone for two days, Shen Mingzhi missed him terribly.
"Okay, then you go ahead and get busy. Remember to eat, don't forget to eat when you're busy," Aunt Wang said before hanging up the phone.
Shen Mingzhi told the boss and went upstairs.
Back in her room, she washed her face, poured herself a cup of tea, drank it, and then sat down to rest.
After a busy day, she sat down and finally felt tired.
Around 8 o'clock, Shen Xiuzhu returned.
He carried a bag into Shen Mingzhi's room and whispered, "It was rushed out of production. I guarantee that we'll attract a lot of attention on set tomorrow."
Shen Mingzhi patted him on the shoulder, "Well done!"
"I'm exhausted. I'm going back to my room to take a shower and rest."
Not long after Shen Xiuzhu left, the owner of the guesthouse downstairs asked Shen Mingzhi to answer the phone.
She picked up the phone and said, "Hello, is this Shao Chen?"
"Of course it's me. How are you doing in Guangzhou?" Jiang Shaozhen asked in a low voice, his voice filled with concern. "Have you encountered any danger?"
Shen Mingzhi wanted to say that she had encountered something, but since she was out in the world, she couldn't just report the good news and not the bad.
"No, but I heard from Jiang Huanyu that the curator of our venue is related to Song Huiquan. Baoli paid 20,000 yuan and originally had a very good booth, but now they've put us in the last hall and the last booth, ripping us off by a full 18,000 yuan!"
"This is outrageous! So what are you planning to do? If you can't resolve this, I'll write a letter to report it for you." Jiang Shaozhen's tone was filled with anger.
Eighteen thousand—that's the salary of so many workers.
They can just be greedy whenever they want?
"Can I report it?" Shen Mingzhi asked curiously. "But I'm going to make a big splash tomorrow. If they don't let me have a good showroom, I'll make them regret screwing me over."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shao Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud. "What do you plan to do?"
"I'll keep it a secret for now, so no one can overhear and learn it. I'll tell you slowly when I get home," Shen Mingzhi said with a smile.
"What do you think of Guangzhou?" Jiang Shaozhen's voice was full of doting affection for her.
Shen Mingzhi frowned and thought for a while before replying, "If the public security is good, it is indeed a very good city. Moreover, there are many individual businesses in this city, and it is also a major concentration of foreign trade groups, making it very suitable for doing business."
"People from all over the country come here. With such a large flow of people, it's easy for security and hygiene problems to arise, which is unavoidable. You need to be careful when you're out here." Jiang Shaozhen had been here last year and solved countless robbery cases during his time stationed here.
