Jian Yuelan received this gift calmly, and Chen Donglai gave it with ease.
After the three of them sat together and chatted for a while, Chen Donglai said goodbye and left. Before leaving, he left the couple his address and phone number, and told Ye Linxing to take Jian Yuelan to Baicheng when he was on vacation.
The Chen family is responsible for entertaining.
Ye Linxing agreed readily. After sending the person away, he took the lunch box and wolfed it down.
Jian Yuelan looked at the watch given by Chen Donglai and asked after a long silence, "Is it really okay to accept his watch?"
"fine."
Ye Linxing swallowed the food in his mouth and explained, "If it was given to you by the Huang family, you would definitely refuse it. You don't need it from the Chen family."
"Why?"
"The Ye family and the Chen family are family friends."
He briefly and comprehensively explained the relationship between the two families. Grandpa and the old man of the Chen family were brothers who climbed out of the same trench.
In addition, the life of the old man of the Chen family was saved by his grandfather.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, these brothers in life and death became partners again.
As a result, the relationship between the two families became stronger and stronger.
After hearing what he said, Jian Yuelan clicked her tongue, "I have to thank that old naughty grandpa. It wasn't him who took grandma home to worship the ancestors despite everyone's objections. I had no chance to save them, let alone get to know you."
"Yes, so we are destined to be married."
He was in a good mood and said something.
Jian Yuelan liked hearing this, she smiled and watched him eating, she just felt that her man was good in every aspect, he was like a man on her heart.
"Are you going back today?"
"Zheng Wan and the others are going back, but we are not going back."
He and Lao Yu still had to follow up on the spies' follow-up leads and couldn't go back.
"If you don't go back, the Public Security Bureau will hold a commendation meeting for you and the police comrades who participated in this operation."
"good."
After eating, Jian Yuelan and the others borrowed a police car to take Zheng Wan and the others to the station.
Before departure, I informed the troops to pick them up, and they agreed.
After sending the people away, Ye Linxing and Yu Shengli took the time to rest for a while, then left the guest house again to get down to business.
Jian Yuelan was not idle either, and went straight to the Friendship Store with her embroidery at nine o'clock the next morning.
Anseong Friendship Store has three floors, with a total business area of more than 600 square meters, and its business scope is different from that of the supply and marketing cooperative.
The products here are mostly jade and stone carvings, carved lacquer products, fine porcelain...drawn embroidery and other traditional Chinese handicrafts, as well as silk products.
There are very few customers because the audience is different from that of supply and marketing cooperatives.
Jian Yuelan comes from a later generation, and unlike today's people who have a natural fear of friendship stores.
She swaggered in and walked around to make sure there were embroidery products for sale. Then she stood directly in front of the drawn embroidery counter and asked the salesperson, "Is your manager here?"
She asked calmly and her attitude was graceful.
The salesperson glanced at her clothes. She was wearing a well-fitting white shirt and black trousers. It looked like she was not something ordinary people could afford.
She Huali misunderstood, thinking that Jian Yuelan was a family member of a leader in Ancheng, and immediately said enthusiastically, "Yes, I will take you to see the manager?"
"Thank you."
Jian Yuelan immediately took out two big white rabbits from the woven bag and handed them over, "Sorry to trouble you."
"You're welcome."
The salesperson who took the candy became more enthusiastic and led her straight to the manager's office.
"Knock knock——"
She knocked on the door and said, "Brother-in-law, are you here? Someone is looking for you."
Jian Yuelan was stunned for a moment. It turned out to be a related household.
"Comrade Zhang Hong, please call me manager during working hours."
The door opened, and the middle-aged man wearing glasses said seriously, "Who's looking for me?"
Zhang Hong was a little afraid of him. Hearing the sound, he shrank his neck and turned sideways and whispered, "Sister... Manager, this comrade is looking for you."
The manager looked over and saw a flash of surprise in Jian Yuelan's eyes. He pushed up his glasses and said, "Comrade, what do you want from me?"
"Manager, are you sure you want to talk to me at the door?"
Jian Yuelan looked at him with a smile. Lin Yuanchao was silent for two seconds and said to Zhang Hong, "Go back to work."
"oh."
Zhang Hong responded angrily, turned around and left quickly.
"Comrade, please come in."
Jian Yuelan followed him into the office. Lin Yuanchao asked her to sit down and poured water for her. Then he sat across from her and said, "Don't you know the surname of your comrade?"
"Jian Yuelan."
Lin Yuanchao, "?"
Is there a leader whose family name is Jian in Ancheng?
"Hello, Comrade Jian, my surname is Lin and my name is Yuanchao. I don't know what your purpose is."
"Discuss a business deal with Manager Lin."
She opened the knitting bag and handed over the embroidery wrapped in cloth.
"Business?"
Lin Yuanchao was stunned for a moment and did not answer. Instead, he said seriously, "Comrade Jian, you may not know the nature of the Friendship Store."
"Know."
Jian Yuelan answered and said confidently, "Manager Lin might as well open it and have a look. It won't be too late to reject me again."
So confident?
Lin Yuanchao was now interested in the business she was talking about. You must know that the products and audience groups sold by friendship products are different from those of supply and marketing cooperatives. He really couldn't figure out where Jian Yuelan had the confidence to be so confident.
"Let me see."
As he spoke, he opened the cloth bag and found beige transparent silk inside.
Instantly, his face turned serious.
Uncovering the string on the silk, he unfolded the silk with a look of disbelief on his face.
"You embroidered this?"
When did such a young embroidery master come to Anseong?
Jian Yuelan nodded, "Manager Lin can look at another picture."
"good."
Lin Yuanchao didn't understand embroidery, but he knew how to appreciate it and what kind of embroidery was high-quality.
So, he carefully put down the embroidery in his hand, picked up another piece of silk and opened it.
"Incredible, simply incredible."
With a look of surprise on his face, he asked Jian Yuelan, "Comrade Jian, you can actually do double-sided embroidery?"
It is still such a lifelike and immersive double-sided embroidery.
This craftsmanship is simply amazing.
"The accurate term should be called double-sided three-different embroidery, which includes different colors, shapes and different stitches."
Jian Yuelan corrected that this double-sided three-different embroidery was a work that took her more than half a year.
On the front is a lifelike tiger showing its domineering spirit, and on the back is a big orange holding a wool ball and playing with it showing its liveliness and agility.
Lin Yuanchao didn't understand. He only knew that he had to keep these two pieces of embroidery. They were the treasures of the Chinese clan.
It is no exaggeration to say that the value of all the embroideries in Youyi Store is not as high as this double-sided three-different embroidery.
"I have accepted these two pieces of embroidery."
Lin Yuanchao was delighted to see that he was hunting, so he decisively decided to acquire two pieces of embroidery.
Not only did he want to win it, he was also prepared to establish a good relationship with Jian Yuelan and win all her subsequent embroideries.
Thinking of the fact that the leader of the Skylark Kingdom came to China as a guest last September, he looked at Jian Yuelan and said, "Comrade Jian, let's talk about the price."
"good."
Jian Yuelan had sold embroidery in her hometown and knew the prices well.
Lin Yuanchao, as for Lin Yuanchao, wanted to establish a good relationship with her and get her subsequent embroidery pieces, but he didn't think about lowering the price, but gave him a fair price.
The price is a bit higher than what she sold it for in her hometown.
After the price was negotiated, Lin Yuelan exchanged money for a watch ticket and bought Ye Linxing a plum blossom ticket.
Then I bought silk and embroidery thread, and then with Lin Yuanchao's warm greeting, I left the Friendship Store and headed to the guest house.
Halfway through the walk, suddenly——
"Look at these vampires! They open their mouths for food and stretch their hands for clothes. They are the blood-sucking insects of society."
