In the evening, in a certain room of the Sijiucheng Hotel, the foreign businessmen who had returned without success gathered together again.
Gree held a cigarette in his hand, frowned slightly, and asked the others: "What do you think of today's events? The situation at the agricultural product company is a bit abnormal."
"I asked about it from the side. It is said that the person in charge of truffle exporting is not from the agricultural product company, but was transferred from other places, and he is very powerful." Weber, who is from West Germany, said solemnly.
"No matter how powerful it is, how powerful can it be?" Someone sneered disdainfully: "It's nothing more than some clumsy negotiation methods. They probably want to dry us out for a few days and make us anxious."
"It is indeed a bit naive." Gree's colleague Holt agreed with a relaxed look: "And this method is not used at this time. We must know that the advantage of time is on our side. We can afford to wait, but they cannot wait.
"Since the truffle picking season has passed, the truffles in their hands should all be frozen, and every day that passes will consume huge storage costs!"
"Then let's wait and see who will be anxious in the end."
"agree."
"That's it for now...Does anyone want to have a drink? I still have a few bottles of good wine over there."
“A very good suggestion.”
"Let's go, I just want to have a drink too. Life in China is really boring. Except for the International Club, there is no place for entertainment at all."
"really."
The group of people dispersed immediately, and the three of them left the room one by one. In a blink of an eye, only Gree and Holt were left.
After Gree sent people away and closed the door, he returned to the sofa and sat down. He lit another cigarette, rubbed his brows and said, "Man, I have a hunch that things won't be that simple this time."
"Then we'll see." Holt smiled nonchalantly, wiped himself off and changed into a white suit, then sprayed some perfume on himself coquettishly, then left the hotel and went to the club to play.
In the empty room, Gree was left smoking alone.
After finishing smoking a cigarette, he suddenly laughed nervously and shook his head in self-explanation: "I must be worrying too much. No matter how simple it is, isn't he also a Chinese?"
There was a hint of obvious contempt in his words.
…
Two days passed quickly.
Early that morning, just after seven o'clock, Chu Heng drove to the Ministry of Foreign Trade to see off Jiang Fanghao, Che Xiaobao, and Qian Jiefang, who were about to go abroad again.
The purpose of their trip abroad this time was to test-market truffle sauce, detect market trends, and solicit opinions from users, so they brought a lot of things with them. Not only did they have their own luggage, but they also brought a hundred bottles of each product.
This time they will still ask Han Yunwen for help. After arriving in Hong Kong Island, these products will be secretly sent to Han Yunwen, and then she will find someone to transport the things to France, contact the merchants, and conduct trial sales.
Another nanny-style business trip.
When Chu Heng came over, the three brothers, who had relaxed faces, were already ready to go. After giving them some instructions, the three of them set off in the car around 7:30 with large and small packages.
Immediately, Chu Heng returned to the office building with other people who came to see him off.
"Comrade Chu Heng." While climbing the stairs, Xiao Wenjing suddenly took a few steps forward and asked Chu Heng: "Yesterday, the export company called again to ask when you would have time to meet those foreign businessmen.
"
After hearing this, Chu Heng thought for a while and then said: "Then at one o'clock in the afternoon, if it doesn't work, let me do it. I don't have time tomorrow, so a buddy will get married."
"Sure, I'll inform you right away." Xiao Wenjing smiled helplessly. This means she really doesn't take foreign businessmen seriously.
After a while, a group of people came upstairs and separated. Chu Heng went back to the office to handle official business, and the others went about their own business, looking like they were in a hurry.
Soon the time came to nine o'clock.
Xiao Wenjing knocked on the door of Chu Heng's office and came in to report to him: "The foreign businessman responded and said he would be there on time at one o'clock."
"Yes, I understand." Chu Heng, who was writing materials, responded without raising his head.
Xiao Wenjing stood on tiptoes curiously and looked at the half-written material in front of him. The title clearly stated "Precautions during the transportation of red wine" in large characters.
"..."
Okay.
A few of us have broken our legs just because of truffles, but you are always here busy with red wine!
And we also used our pen and paper!
What is this?
I am in Cao camp but my heart is in Han?
Xiao Wenjing pursed her lips speechlessly, but did not dare to say anything, and finally withdrew silently.
Chu Heng ignored her and continued writing. It was almost eleven o'clock when he finally finished. Then he took a cigarette and took a break. He packed the materials, took the lunch box and called Chi Fuchu, and had a good time together.
Go downstairs to eat.
But when he arrived at the cafeteria and saw the food in the cafeteria, Chu Heng was dumbfounded.
I don’t know what’s going on in the cafeteria today, but out of character, I actually made a sweet rice dish called “Remembering the Bitter Sufferings”!
Looking at the steamed bun made of bran, corn noodles, and rotten vegetable leaves in his hand, and the clear and watery cabbage soup with some soy sauce in the lunch box, Chu Heng found it hard to swallow.
But there is no other way, you have to eat even if you can't, otherwise someone will want to talk to you. This Chu Heng is not afraid, but in order to avoid trouble, he can only sit down and pretend to bite every bite.
After chewing a few mouthfuls of steamed buns, he threw them into the warehouse.
He was pretending to eat, but he was really eating. Chi Fuchu wrinkled his face and nibbled on the steamed buns in small mouths, showing a mask of pain in every bite.
"hiss!"
After chewing most of the soup, Chi Fuchu couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly drank a few mouthfuls of soup to slow down his meal. After finishing the soup, he didn't dare to complain, but had to say "it's delicious" against his conscience.
Chu Heng shook his head when he saw this, threw the last mouthful of steamed bun into his mouth, pretended to chew it for a few mouthfuls and threw it into the warehouse. He picked up the lunch box and took a sip of cabbage soup. He glanced casually and spotted a man who was munching on steamed bun not far away.
Qin Ling and his two brothers waved to them: "Qin Ling, Su Li, come here."
"well."
The two brothers quickly came over with lunch boxes.
"What's wrong? What's your order, Comrade Chu Heng?"
"Sit down and talk." Chu Heng pointed to the seat next to him. After the two brothers sat down, he said: "I will go to the export building to negotiate with foreign businessmen later. You guys come with me to see the world."
"Oh, that's great."
The two brothers were extremely surprised when they heard this. Su Li looked at the patched clothes and asked quickly: "Then do we need to change clothes?"
"No need to change, the department's logistics department has ready-made ones. I'll write a note to you later and you can borrow a set to change into. Just remember to pay it back later." Chi Fuchu on the side heard this and put down the bag in his hand.
"Okay, thank you Chi Chu." The two brothers said with a cheerful smile.
"Comrade Chu Heng." Xiao Wenjing, who was sitting not far away, heard their conversation and hurriedly came over and said, "Can you take me with you? I have never participated in this kind of negotiation."
"Sure." Chu Heng nodded indifferently, raising one sheep and herding two sheep.
