While Ning Min'er and a few others were choosing clothes, Liu Shiba and Frater sat on a double sofa in the store and chatted.
The beautiful and sexy foreign girl also sat not far away with a smile and watched the two talking.
"Mr. Trumpet, the trumpet you played for me last time was really powerful. I don't know when you can prepare some for me."
Frater didn't hesitate to ask for it, and he was not polite at all.
Frater's words reminded Liu Shiba of the difficult days in the black prison, the people who died in the black prison, and the uncle Wu Shixun who did not know whether he was alive or dead.
"A friend of mine rolled some of that trumpet, and he still has a few more with him.
If you want it, I'll give it to you. After a while, when you come to my house as a guest, I'll ask him to roll some for you."
While reminiscing, Liu Shiba was dealing with Frater, looking absent-minded.
"Oh, dear Mr. Trumpet, you are so generous. I will definitely pay you a visit when the time comes."
Fred hugged Liu Shiba's shoulders exaggeratedly and said with a smile.
The foreign girl sitting next to her couldn't help but be surprised when she saw this.
Fret's current appearance is rare to see. Fret, who has always been strict, is usually very informal.
With a wry smile, Liu Shiba glanced at the effervescently beautiful foreign girl, and whispered in Frater's ear:
"I asked Fred, can you call me Liu Shiba, if not Mr. Trumpet? If that doesn't work, you can call me brother."
Seeing Liu Shiba say this, Frater's expression suddenly became serious. He looked at Liu Shiba seriously and asked:
"The word brother is a very serious matter. Do you really allow me to call you brother?"
"Of course, you call me Brother Eighteen, and I call you Brother Frater, don't you think this is a good idea?"
Liu Shiba had an indifferent expression. In China, calling him brother is a very common word.
After hearing Liu Shiba's words, Frater was silent for a while, looked up at the beautiful woman sitting upright, and introduced:
"Well, brothers eighteen, let me introduce to you, this is my sister Eva Frater.
She is the chief CEO of the Siberian Heavy Industries Group and is my direct boss."
Hearing this, Liu Shiba couldn't help but look at the foreign girl with a smile on her face in surprise, and said hello with a smile:
"It turns out to be Miss Eva. Nice to meet you."
After saying that, Liu Shiba looked down at Frater and smiled softly:
"I thought it was your secretary or translator."
"Brother, don't talk nonsense. It's just that my sister Eva has just arrived in China and there are some language barriers.
During this time, she is just learning Chinese from me. Also, please don’t use titles like secretary.
After I arrived in China, I canceled the position of secretary or assistant. Even if there is one, it must be a man."
Fred blinked his blue eyes and wrinkled his handsome face.
"Why cancel it? I think women who work as secretaries or assistants are more careful than men."
Liu Shiba asked strangely.
"Oh, dear brother, from now on I will be called Brother Eighteen. You don't know, but I heard very bad Chinese customs when I first came to China, so I canceled the very bad position of secretary.
It is said that Huaxia’s secretary means little wife, or a metaphor for lover. This is not allowed in a strict family like mine. Private affairs and official matters cannot be confused."
Feret shook his head and explained, with a puzzled look on his face.
Liu Shiba was speechless. He thought that this custom in China has been around for a long time. The secretary’s subconscious is Xiaomi or her lover. Even foreigners are so well-connected.
And it seems that he is very resistant to this bad trend.
"Mr. Trumpet, you haven't introduced yourself yet.
This is very, very impolite behavior.”
At this time, Eva, who had been sitting upright, suddenly spoke a series of stuttering Chinese words. It was obvious that her tongue was spinning and she did not straighten it.
It is really difficult for foreigners to learn Chinese
Liu Shiba looked at Feret curiously, and he made a shrug.
So, Liu Shiba smiled, stood up and walked to Eva Fleiss sincerely, looked into her eyes and said:
"My name is Liu Shiba, nice to meet you, beautiful Miss Eva."
Eva Frese's fair face blushed, and she quickly stood up and stretched out a hand, handed it to Liu Shiba, and said with a smile:
"Nice to meet you, oh trumpet no, Mr. Liu Shiba, oh no or Brother Shiba."
When Eva's white and soft little hand slipped into his palm, Liu Shiba was stunned for a moment, glanced at Feret in confusion, and thought to himself:
"Foreign girls are so open-minded. If they can hold hands the first time they meet, wouldn't it be possible the second time?"
"What are you doing here, idiot? Why don't you kiss the back of Miss Eva's hand? This is an aristocratic etiquette."
At this time, Ning Miner's sweet laughter came from behind Liu Shiba.
"Bah"
Liu Shiba's face turned red for a rare moment. He seemed to remember seeing this kind of etiquette on TV. He quickly put his big, smelly mouth to the back of Eva's hand and kissed her firmly.
Ning Miner was speechless and rolled her eyes.
Conscience of heaven and earth, Liu Shiba really didn't know any etiquette. When he kissed the back of Eva's hand, a faint scent of perfume drifted into his nose.
By some strange coincidence, Liu Shiba actually stuck out his little tongue and quickly licked the back of Eva's hand.
"ah"
Eva screamed, her face turned red.
Eva's embarrassment looked particularly exotic, which made Liu Shiba stunned for a moment.
Coupled with Eva's convex and concave figure, Liu Shiba immediately had a sign of nosebleeds.
"Eva, what's wrong?"
Seeing the shy look on his sister's eyebrows, Feret asked strangely
"nothing"
Eva blushed and turned around. Her blue eyes gave Liu Shiba a faint look, revealing a hint of anger.
This scene was so small and charming that Feret didn't see it, but Ning Min'er, who was standing next to Liu Shiba, saw it clearly and couldn't help but whisper in Ning Min'er's ear with a sweet smile:
"You're such a big bad guy, you take advantage of others as soon as you meet them."
After saying that, Ning Min'er took advantage of the situation and pinched the soft flesh of Liu Shiba's waist. The pain caused Liu Shiba to grin and tears suddenly welled up.
Painful and happy
The small interlude did not affect the good atmosphere of conversation among several people.
Ning Miner took Zheng Weida and Lu Xiaolin to another sportswear store next door to choose other clothes.
At this time, Liu Shiba's eyes flickered. He thought of Feret's family, which seemed to be some kind of heavy industry group, so he asked:
"Brother Feret, I heard that your company sells some heavy machinery, right?"
"Yes, it's mainly some large-scale construction engineering equipment. Do you have any needs?
I remember that you seemed to have just arrived in the big city of Kyoto."
Feret asked curiously.
"Yes, I need a few small engineering excavators. Do you have any suitable introductions?"
Liu Shiba looked at Feret and asked.
In fact, the Storm Battleship also has a small excavator, but which one is good for drilling holes? If you don't care about landslides and speed, it is definitely the best in the world, but it is not good for digging air-raid shelters.
"The excavator doesn't know whether you are doing ground engineering or underground engineering"
Feret asked doubtfully.
"Underground projects should be simple and can be worked by one person."
Liu Shiba replied calmly.
"It just so happens that the company now has a small artificial intelligence excavator prototype, which can be operated by a single person or unmanned.
As long as you enter the data, it will be automatically mined according to the scope you have defined.
Not only that, it also has its own transportation pipeline, which can quickly transport the earth and rocks excavated from the ground out through its own pipeline.
In case you encounter a hard rock fault or the like, you can use the built-in drill bit to crush it in a small area.
This is our company’s most advanced small excavator.”
Feret kept introducing his company's products without noticing the surprise in Liu Shiba's eyes.
"What is the maximum excavation depth of this excavator? How many vertical and inclined planes does it have?"
Liu Shiba waved his hand to interrupt Feret's showoff and asked directly.
"It's at least two kilometers vertically, because the power is so powerful, and if it's on an incline, it can even reach a depth of four kilometers or six kilometers.
As long as the transportation pipeline is long enough and some transfer high-power transport aircraft are installed in the middle, there will be no problem at all."
Feret answered Liu Shiba's questions seriously, with a very serious expression on his face.
When discussing business, Feret completely entered the state of a businessman.
“How much does an excavator like this cost?”
Liu Shiba asked the key price issue.
Feret looked at Liu Shiba strangely.
He wondered, what did Liu Shiba want with these?
However, Feret still answered honestly:
"In China, the sales of excavators like this are not good, because the Huaxia subway is not popular, and most of them are cosmetic projects, with at most three or four floors.
I don’t know how much land resources such a rubbish subway will occupy. Today it will be repaired and tomorrow it will be dug. It will be endless.
I remember that in the United States, the subway in Manhattan usually has seven floors, and the deepest one is even more than ten floors. This kind of project is the world of this kind of excavator.
Unfortunately, I haven’t sold one of this kind of excavator in China.”
"Okay, just tell me the price."
Liu Shiba sighed and asked lightly.
He doesn’t know about all the shortcomings of China, but he can’t do anything about it.
It’s funny to think about it. When China lays a road, it doesn’t first build gas pipes, communication pipes or drainage pipes, but first repairs the road.
After the road is repaired, it will be dug up, laid and drained, and then repaired.
Then dig it out, lay communication pipes, and repair them.
Then dig it out, lay gas pipelines, and repair them.
Then, the roads were scrapped and new ones had to be built.
The people's taxes are just going back and forth on various projects.
Every city in China is full of smog, and people are digging everywhere
Repairs are being made everywhere, digging and repairing, repairing and digging, endlessly
"Each excavator sells for 27 million U.S. dollars, which is equivalent to about 190 million yuan in Chinese currency."
Feret seemed to know what Liu Shiba was thinking, and quietly quoted a price.
Liu Shiba frowned, thinking of his future plans in the villa
I thought of the destroyed Liujiatun and the black prison that was suddenly attacked.
This kind of attack will never stop
For the safety of everyone, Liu Shiba gritted his teeth, looked up at Feret and said calmly:
"Brother Feret, I need ten of these excavators. When can you deliver the goods?"
"Oh my god, you surprised me, ten excavators
Are you planning to hollow out the entire Kyoto underground? You really don’t know the terrifying power of this small excavator?"
Feret's exaggerated expression looked like he had seen a ghost
Even in Europe, some large engineering companies only buy two or three units at most. Where can I buy ten units?
If there are ten stations, it is really possible to hollow out the entire Kyoto underground within a few years.
"Do you want to sell it or not?"
Liu Shiba looked impatient and asked with a smile.
"No problem. The problem is that it may take a week for delivery. Currently, there are only two finished products in Kyoto.
I need to transport some from the headquarters, it will take five or six days."
Feret thought about it and answered carefully.
Later, Liu Shiba told Feret the address of the villa and made an agreement on cash on delivery.
Then Feret extorted a few loudspeakers and broke up.
Liu Shiba went to the counter to pay and change clothes, then went next door to look for Ning Min'er and others.
ps: At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, let's see you there. Liu Shiba is going to do something big. This chapter is also a big one.
