When Yu Changle approached, the first words out of Liu Bo's mouth were:
"I haven't seen you for a few days. Why have you lost so much weight?"
This made Yu Changle extremely happy. He touched his face with his hands and his eyes turned into crescent moons with smiles.
"Really?"
Liu Bo frowned: "Isn't it true? My face has become smaller. The little girl can't work too hard. She loses weight too fast!"
Listening to Liu Bo's worried words, Yu Changle felt happy, which showed that his weight loss plan had achieved initial results, which could be seen at a glance.
Yu Changle smiled and said: "Brother Bo, don't worry, I'm fine. I'm just too fat and need to lose weight."
Liu Bo shook his head disapprovingly: "Who said you are fat? You are just as good and rich as before!"
Upon hearing this word, Yu Changle felt three black lines dripping from his forehead, so he had to smile and change the subject:
"Is Zhang Dapeng at home? Let's hurry up and sign the contract. I want to buy some things for opening the store later."
"Here, I've already been to his house. Why don't I come out to pick you up now? If you want to buy something later, I'll go with you. I just have the day off to have some time."
Yu Changle said happily: "That's great, I was worried that I might not be able to move it alone!"
Liu Bo responded readily: "Don't worry, with your brother Bo here, I can handle it no matter how difficult it is."
While they were talking and laughing, a voice came out from behind the two of them:
"Why are you having so much fun chatting?"
Liu Bo was frightened. He turned around and saw that it was Zhang Dapeng. He hugged him with a kick:
"I'm going to ask you to pretend to be a ghost and scare people!"
Zhang Dapeng flashed flexibly and smiled narrowly: "Is there anything you want to say? Let's talk about it later. Let's sign the contract first?"
Yu Changle smiled and nodded: "Okay, let's sign the contract first!"
Since the main contract was drawn up last time, no extra time was spent today. After both parties had no objections after reading it, they signed the payment agreement and the supplementary terms for the purchase of the house three months later.
As Yu Changle handed over thirty yuan of rent to Zhang Dapeng, the matter of the clothing store was finally settled.
Zhang Dapeng is also generous. As soon as he has money in his hand, he has the capital to treat guests to dinner.
Yu Changle didn't refuse this time. Firstly, he had made an appointment for a meal at the beginning of the month when he was trying to avoid it last time. Secondly, he still had to deal with him when buying a house, so he should maintain a good relationship.
During the dinner, Zhang Dapeng asked for a bottle of wine, but neither Yu Changle nor Liu Bo drank, so he drank to his heart's content alone.
After eating and walking out of the hotel, Zhang Dapeng pulled Liu Bo: "Let's go, Brother Bo, I will take you to a fun place..."
Liu Bo pulled back his sleeves in disgust: "I don't have time, I have to go shopping with Chang Le!"
Zhang Dapeng was stunned when he heard this, his eyes darted back and forth on Yu Changle and Liu Bo, and he suddenly laughed out loud:
"Hahaha...I understand, I understand..."
"You know nothing!" Liu Bo kicked him in the butt and was annoyed when he saw his dead look. "Hurry home and spend whatever money you have. Don't you still have to go to the south? Be careful about the travel expenses! It will be a disaster!" "
Zhang Dapeng drank too much and did not dodge the kick. He received a solid kick but only staggered two steps.
Knowing that Liu Bo was not exerting any effort, he knew that he was not angry. He smiled with a shy face and blurred eyes: "Okay, okay, I'm going back, I won't... I won't disturb your... date!"
Liu Bo knew that he couldn't tell the drunkard, so he was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore. He turned to Yu Changle and said:
"Let's go, don't worry about him, he knows how to go back!"
Yu Changle nodded when he saw that Zhang Dapeng was already staggering back. She was not as leisurely as Zhang Dapeng. There were still many things waiting for her today.
"Brother Bo, do you know where there is a lumber factory nearby that can make customized furniture?"
She has already thought about it. The finished furniture from the supply and marketing cooperative is expensive and requires a ticket. More importantly, it is unlikely that there will be furniture that meets her needs, so the best way is to go to the lumber factory to order it.
Liu Bo replied without hesitation: "It must be there, Hongxing Lumber Factory, my buddy works there."
"Okay, let's go there and have a look!"
The buddy Liu Bo calls is Zhou Zhiqiang, a third-level technician at the Red Star Timber Factory.
Seeing that Liu Bo brought a plump little beauty to him, the reception was extremely warm and he responded to all his requests.
Yu Changle did not plan to display according to the now fashionable long counter model. She took out the drawings she had drawn in advance and gave them to Zhou Zhiqiang to see if their factory could make what she needed.
Zhou Zhiqiang was complacent at first, but as he watched, his expression gradually became confused:
"These shelves are simple and have no problems, but this mannequin... has never been done before. I have to show it to my master."
In addition to several open shelves commonly used in modern displays, Yu Changle's painting also drew a frame of a mannequin, carefully marking the need for the arms to be detachable.
This stumped Zhou Zhiqiang. Ever since he entered the factory at the age of sixteen, he had never seen anyone making human-shaped furniture!
Yu Changle did not force it: "Then I will order these display stands first. I will ask Brother Zhou for help regarding the models. If I can do it, I will order two."
"Okay, I'll take care of this." Zhou Zhiqiang responded.
"How much do these display racks cost? Can I pay a deposit first?"
After Yu Changle paid the rent, he didn't have much money left. There was no news about the final payment for his work clothes. It seemed that he had to shamelessly go to Liu Rumei's house to ask about the situation.
Zhou Zhiqiang waved his hand and said very cheerfully: "It's just a few thin wooden slivers. I can finish it when I get off work. No matter what the charge, I can just pick it up tomorrow!"
Seeing that Yu Changle still wanted to persist, Liu Bo also said: "If Zhiqiang says you don't need it, don't use it. Their lumber factory throws away more leftover boards every day than you use, so just listen to him."
Yu Changle had no choice but to give up. It had to be said that the human touch in this era was indeed much stronger and purer than in modern times.
Among relatives and friends, who lives in which unit and can help, they just help each other, and no one points to this to make money.
After Yu Changle said his thanks, he remembered that he still needed to buy a single bed. As soon as Zhang Dapeng left, he would throw away all the old furniture in the small room at the back.
Zhou Zhiqiang was even more happy when he heard that he bought a single bed:
"A bed headboard that just came out today has some flaws. In fact, it doesn't affect the use at all. If you don't mind, you can buy it for six yuan."
Of course Yu Changle doesn't mind. Today's bedding is not beautiful enough for her, no matter whether the headboard is defective or not. Since aesthetics is not a concern, of course it only depends on practicality.
"I don't mind, that's the best, Brother Zhou, thank you so much, these combined have helped me save a lot of money!"
Looking at Yu Changle's sweet smile, Zhou Zhiqiang's face turned red:
“You’re welcome, you can treat me to dinner or a movie when you’re free, that’s fine!”
