Li Shi saw the temptation in Chen Yao's words.
At first, he thought that since Chen Yao could invest in Qiao Qiao's business, he was one of the financial backers behind Qiao Qiao, and he should want her to grow and develop.
But then I thought about it and realized it wasn't that simple.
In addition to being enemies in the same industry, there is also a mentality of "I hope my best friend will live well, but I don't want my best friend to live better than myself". What's more, Qiao Qiao is not only her best friend, but also her former employee.
It is estimated that her psychology towards Qiao Qiao is very complicated.
Li Shi had no intention of speculating on the relationship between them. He only felt that healthy competition would be beneficial for them to help him ship more goods.
"Looking for me."
"I didn't expect Qiao Qiao to be so strong when she just started her business. I helped her find an eight-figure top-quality product."
Chen Yao immediately asked: "Did she find the goods for that exchange meeting?"
Li Shi: "You know, that's right. She said that you also invested in her, and you are still her boss."
Chen Yao: "(wry smile), I am not her boss now. She made me rich. There is another boss behind her."
Chen Yao: "Brother, what did you find for her?"
Li Shi: "A high-ice round bracelet full of green, I got it from my friend."
After this message was sent, Chen Yao stopped chatting on WeChat and called directly.
Li Shi and Sun Shouwen had already found a seat in the book bar and sat down. He looked at the caller ID, said something to Sun Shouwen, got up and went outside the book bar before answering the call.
"Sister Chen, what are your instructions?"
"Brother, my Mr. Li, I don't dare to give you instructions. I just hope that you can give me some good things so that my performance at the end of the year can increase even more!"
Li Shi thought, here we come.
It really has to be rolled up.
He remained calm and kept his original tone: "Sister Chen, the things you can fancy from me are all from the ceiling. The bracelet I found for Qiao Qiao was from my friend. I am It’s really gone, not a drop is left.”
Chen Yao seemed to be anxious: "Brother, you can't treat one with favoritism! I am the first to cooperate with you!"
"There is really no such thing as being able to sell top-quality goods. The market is like this now. You should know better than me."
Top-quality goods are naturally available at the source, but top-quality goods that can be obtained at the right price are extremely scarce.
Jade is a non-renewable resource. With the development of the domestic economy, the high-end jade market is becoming more and more popular. Those owners who have top-quality goods have no worries about not being able to sell their good goods, so the prices are very high, and they will not If the price is easily reduced, they would rather not sell it.
The higher the price, the more so.
"Anyway, I don't believe it. If you don't help my sister, she will go to Tanzhou to find you right now."
"It's useless for you to come to me. I can only play around with you."
"Then I'll stay at your house and won't leave!"
Chen Yao seems to be playing dirty tricks.
Li Shi naturally knew that she was pretending, but he pretended to smile bitterly and said: "There are really not many good things left. I just keep them for fun and wait for the value to increase."
Seeing that he relented, Chen Yao immediately laughed: "I can't help it. It's strange to say that the economic environment in the world seems to be not very good now, but the number of customers looking for me to buy top-quality jadeite collections has increased. Seeing that I can't make so much money, I feel like a cat is scratching my heart, (covering face)."
Li Shi's heart moved after hearing this, but he quickly suppressed the impulse.
The money in my account is enough for now, so I don't need to spend too much money at once and mess up my rhythm.
He immediately said: "There are not many. I can help you find one more at most!"
Chen Yao quickly smiled and said: "Okay, one piece is fine."
While chatting, Li Shi saw two girls walking not far away. Both girls were not too tall, about 1.6 meters, one was fat and the other was thin. The fat girl has an average appearance and is not ugly, while the thin girl has a pretty good appearance and has regular facial features.
When the two entered the door, they glanced at Li Shi.
Li Shi had some guesses in his mind, but he was not in a hurry to go in. Anyway, it was Shouwen who was going on a blind date today, and he was just accompanying the guest.
After chatting with Chen Yao for a while, Chen Yao also asked him about the bracelet information he wanted to find for Qiao Qiao.
"Not yet. It will be sent to Qiao Qiao later. You can ask her for it. Let's talk about what you want."
"Okay. That's it. I have regular customers who are very wealthy. Recently, I got a fat grandson. So I want to get some emeralds to bring blessings and keep me safe. If you have a lucky bag or a safe button, you can do it. But it must be of the highest quality. This old lady is really not short of money, and she attaches great importance to her eldest grandson. She told me directly that it must be the kind that can be passed down to the family."
Li Shi smiled and said, "Sister Chen, you have quite a few big clients."
Chen Yao was also a little proud: "That's right, after all, I have been working in this industry for so many years, but it's not..."
Li Shi smiled and heard what she meant, and asked: "Is there a limit to the budget?"
Chen Yao immediately said: "Brother, we have cooperated several times, and it has always been very pleasant and practical. I won't be hypocritical. To be honest, the maximum budget I can get from you is one thousand and fifty-six thousand...specifically Yes, let’s just keep doing the same thing, just decide on the price based on the product.”
Li Shi: "Okay."
He likes to do business with Chen Yao. The most important thing is that she is neat and tidy, and she is more cheerful than most men. When negotiating the price, she will make a decisive decision at the right stage and will not have to grind it out later. Able to close transactions as quickly as possible.
However, there is definitely a margin for fifteen or six hundred w.
No matter how straightforward a businessman is, he is still a businessman. The more experienced he is in the market, the better he will be in advance.
Li Shi decisively took into account the amount of advance she reserved——
"Well, then prepare a package worth around 16.5 million for her."
Entering the restaurant, I saw the two girls from before, one fat and one thin, sitting together with Sun Shouwen.
As soon as Li Shi passed by, Sun Shouwen immediately introduced them to both parties.
"This is my buddy Li Shi. We are high school classmates... This is He Hongyan. My mother and her mother are also high school classmates. This is Hongyan's friend Ma Qi."
Li Shi smiled politely at the two girls, and then said hello: "Hello."
When the two girls saw him, their eyes lit up.
However, in the subsequent conversation, Li Shi didn't speak much. He basically asked about himself before replying, giving all the opportunities to Sun Shouwen.
Today is a blind date for brothers.
Naturally, he couldn't steal his brother's limelight.
He still has to talk about this loyalty.
He Hongyan is a pretty good girl. She looks gentle and gentle, and she speaks neither fast nor slow, but in an organized manner. She and Sun Shouwen have a good chat. Li Shi is watching the signs and feels that they are having fun.
Her best friend, the overly plump Ma Qi, has a much more lively personality than her. While helping her best friend inspect Sun Shouwen, she also secretly looked at Li Shi.
Li Shi has keen senses and sees everything.
Chatting in the book bar should not be too loud. The four of them sat there for half an hour before going out to a nearby shopping mall. They saw a Starbucks and walked in.
Sun Shouwen and He Hongyan went to order, while Li Shi and Ma Qi found a place to sit first.
As soon as she sat down, Ma Qi looked at the handsome boy in front of her. Seeing that it would take a while to order, she immediately seized the opportunity and said: "Li Shi, how about I introduce myself again? My name is Ma Qi. I am 24 this year." Years old, graduated from university, and is a wedding planner by profession. Now I work in Xingfuli Wedding Company. My monthly income is not high, but it is 5,000 yuan a month, which is enough to support myself. I don’t have much savings, only tens of thousands of yuan, and I haven’t bought a house yet. , but my family said that as long as I get married, they will give me money to buy a house in Tanzhou..."
Li Shi looked at her in surprise.
As a sign of respect, he listened patiently without interrupting the other person.
Ma Qi introduced her situation in great detail in one breath, and finally stared into Li Shi's eyes: "We're here anyway, why don't we give it a try?"
Li Shi then said: "Your conditions are very good, but I already have a partner, I'm sorry."
His attitude was sincere and very polite.
Li Shi has understood a truth since he was a child. It is far more important to treat people who like him well than to lick the people he likes.
Although this Ma Qi may just think that she is a good person and was stimulated by her best friend's blind date to say this, but in any case, she also expressed her tendency to like him.
Ma Qi's face showed disappointment, but she still smiled and said: "Yes, a handsome guy like you will probably be..."
Li Shi smiled and said nothing more.
However, things from my student days came to mind, and I couldn't help but feel a little emotional - in college, it's not just about looks and grades.
At that time, I was just mediocre among my classmates. I found a girlfriend and broke up soon.
The four of them chatted in the coffee shop until about five o'clock in the evening, then went to a restaurant to eat, and then went to the cinema upstairs in the mall to watch a movie.
All expenses were paid by Sun Shouwen and He Hongyan.
In this situation, Li Shi would naturally not rush to pay the bill.
Seeing that the movie was a romance film, Li Shi reluctantly insisted on watching it for more than ten minutes. He couldn't stand it anymore. He found an excuse to talk to Sun Shouwen, slipped out first, came to the lobby of the cinema, and found a seat to sit down. After that, I logged into Honor of Kings and played two solo games.
It's not much fun to play games alone, so I simply opened the "Smart Primary and Secondary School" app and continued to study the second volume of the history of the first grade of junior high school.
"The third lesson, the atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty."
"'When Chang'an is full of flowers, the scenery should be frivolous. No one is not selling wine, and there is no place where music is not heard.' This is the poem "Hundred Flowers" by Liu Yuxi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. It describes the grand occasion of people enjoying flowers in Chang'an..."
"Qu Yuan Li... Tube Cart... Li Bai... Wu Daozi... Yan Zhenqing... what a towering and prosperous Tang Dynasty."
In the lobby of the cinema, people were coming and going, and it was noisy, but Li Shi quickly immersed himself in the long river of history, and seemed to see a series of ancient scenes in front of his eyes.
"It can be said that the history books in junior high schools only give a general outline and do not describe the specific customs and customs of each dynasty and generation in detail enough, making it difficult to get a glimpse of the specific features of those eras."
Li Shi felt regretful as he looked at it, and wanted to find more detailed historical materials to read immediately, but he held back.
Not urgent.
Learning is a systematic project and must be done step by step.
He thought about the TV series he watched recently.
"So many costume dramas are shot blindly. Leaving aside the plot, the Taoism and ancient scenes are not particular at all. Even if they are just imaginary, you can still draw nutrients from those ancient historical materials... They all just want to make money. For quick money, take date pills.”
Li Shi complained in his heart and continued to study.
Time passed unconsciously.
After a movie, He Hongyan and Ma Qi realized that Li Shi was not there. Ma Qi asked Sun Shouwen first, "Where is your friend? Did he go back early?"
Sun Shouwen quickly explained: "No, he went out to answer the phone and was waiting for us outside."
The three of them walked out and came to the movie hall. Sure enough, they quickly found Li Shi who was looking down at his mobile phone.
They walked over and found Li Shi looking at his phone in fascination.
Sun Shouwen leaned over and took a look. He saw that what appeared to be a map was displayed on the screen of his mobile phone. He asked, "Why are you looking so absorbed?"
Li Shi came to his senses and said with a smile: "The Territory Map of the Northern Song Dynasty... is over? Are there any activities below?"
"No more activities, let's send Hongyan and the others back first. What do you think this thing is for?"
"I've been learning some history lately."
Several people were walking and chatting.
When he arrived at the parking lot, Li Shi thought about studying history by himself. Although he mainly studied by himself in the early stage, if he had any doubts, it would be best to communicate with professionals, so he asked Sun Shouwen: "How is the history teacher in your school? Is there anyone who is particularly talented professionally?”
Sun Shouwen: "The teachers of our mathematics group and history group are not in the same office, and we have little contact with each other. What are you doing?"
Li Shi told the truth: "When you want to learn and have doubts, you can ask someone for advice."
Sun Shouwen originally wanted to say why are you so serious, but then he remembered that Li Shi learned to paint and spent a lot of money to find a studio teacher. When the words came to his lips, he changed to: "Then I will help you find out when I get back."
For a high school classmate like me, who has money and leisure, what I pursue now may be more of a spiritual life.
He Hongyan and Ma Qi in the back row looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.
…
After the car started, Li Shi sent a message to Wang Yuelan, telling her that he would be home in about an hour.
Wang Yuelan quickly replied: "Shitou, will your classmate come to stay at home tonight? Do you need me to prepare the bed?"
Li Shi was chatting with Sun Shouwen and asked casually: "Would you like to stay at my place tonight?"
Sun Shouwen immediately shook his head: "No, I'll stay in the hotel. Hongyan and I have made an appointment to climb Lushan Mountain tomorrow morning. Then I will go directly from the hotel and go back to the county in the afternoon."
Li Shi knew that he felt that it was inconvenient and unforced to have a female family member, so he deliberately looked back at He Hongyan and said with a smile: "You are a guy who values sex over friends."
He glanced at the street outside and found that it was very close to Phoenix Bay, and immediately said: "How about you drop me off first? Drive forward from here, turn left at the second traffic light, and you'll be there."
"good."
After giving directions, Li Shi spoke to Wang Yuelan on WeChat.
A few minutes later, Sun Shouwen parked the car on the roadside at the entrance of Phoenix Bay.
Li Shi greeted the three of them respectively, got out of the car and walked towards the gate of the community.
In the car, He Hongyan and Ma Qi both looked at his back through the window. Ma Qi couldn't help but asked Sun Shouwen out of curiosity: "Li Shi actually lives in this Phoenix Bay community?"
…
Li Shi pushed the door open and entered the house, and found that Wang Yuelan did not come to greet him at the door for the first time, and he suddenly became curious.
After changing into slippers, I walked through the entrance hall and looked toward the living room. My eyes suddenly lit up when I was attracted by a graceful yellow figure!
The pace couldn't help but speed up a bit.
I knew that taking leave for whatever reason would definitely disappoint many readers, so I took the injection and the fever subsided a little, and I quickly continued typing.
Special thanks to fellow Taoists who gave me rewards, voted, left messages, and liked me. Thank you for always supporting me!
When I was publishing single chapters before, I took so much time off because of my poor health. This month’s recommendations and next month’s recommendations were far away, and the 10,000 expected orders were also far away (currently 9,000). (more), I was in a particularly bad mood. I said bad words carelessly. I'm sorry.
(End of chapter)
