Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 187 Why is it only you who is disgusting?
So, Lu Qiaoge and Hu Ze quickly left the finance office.

But Lu Qiaoge stood at the door and didn't leave. Instead, she continued talking to Hu Ze: "...I just went back to my office to double-check everything. If I'm wrong, the people in the finance department will be unhappy again."

When I went to get the ink, a fly landed on the ticket number 20. I swatted it dead with a fly swatter, but little did I know it was a female fly, full of maggots..."

"Ugh, vomit..."

Liu Jing couldn't hold back any longer and covered her mouth, looking as if she was about to vomit.

She glared at Lu Qiaoge with hatred, tears streaming down her face.

Lu Qiaoge ignored what others were saying and just sneered, "I already told you I'd give you a chance, but you didn't cherish it, so don't blame me!"

"There are so many people in the finance office, why are you the only one who's disgusting like this? Did you deliberately eat the money to frame me? If so, there would be no way to prove it."

Everyone went to look at Lu Qiaoge and Liu Jing, who was covering her mouth.

What's there to not understand?

Liu Jing felt waves of nausea and vomiting, so she had to cover her mouth and run out of the finance office, heading towards what appeared to be a public restroom.

Accountant Shen slammed her hand on the table: "Lu Qiaoge, the receipts from your food factory are full of bird droppings and fly maggots. What do you mean by this? From now on, who will dare to reconcile your receipts with the finance department?"

The house and the surrounding area became quiet again.

Huang Juan winked at Lu Qiaoge, signaling her not to clash with Accountant Shen.

But I was also very dissatisfied.

She didn't criticize Liu Jing at all while she was jumping around, but now she's bringing it up.

While it's not wrong to side with people in your own office, if she had said more useful things on a regular basis, Liu Jing wouldn't have been so bold as to destroy the money.

What if we look at the bigger picture from the small details, and it turns out to be something more important that we can't make up for?

Lu Qiaoge was neither angry nor retorted, but smiled gently: "Accountant Shen, the bird droppings part is real, but it is also a Chinese medicinal herb called white lilac. Hu Ze cleaned it up properly, so it's okay if you accidentally ate it. But the fly and maggot part is something I made up, so please don't take it seriously!"

Accountant Shen: "..."

I've always known that Lu Qiaoge is eloquent, but today I've truly experienced it firsthand.

Accountant Shen had to soften her expression and said to Lu Qiaoge, "Director Hu just emphasized that you both have your own reasons, but there was no third person in the finance office at the time, so there's no way to prove it. Maybe you lied, or maybe Liu Jing lied. Director Hu is right. Fortunately, no irreparable losses have occurred. You have to be careful in the future, especially since you are now the acting factory manager of the food factory. Your corn cakes are very popular, not to mention you have foreign trade orders. You must be more cautious about money in the future."

Lu Qiaoge didn't refute, and agreed with a smile, and then the matter... was temporarily over.

However, Liu Jing took sick leave.

So everyone knows exactly what happened.
-
Lu Qiaoge approached Sister Su and told her about her idea of ​​exchanging grain for food. Sister Su was shocked when she heard this.

Is it possible to do it this way?

If it can really be done, that would be a huge achievement.

Of course, this is all predicated on approval from above.

Lu Qiaoge said, "Let's go to the foreign trade department first. I have the business card Zhen Xi gave me with her phone number on it. Let's contact Zhen Xi first."

Sister Su nodded without hesitation: "Okay, I'll talk to my supervisor and then we'll leave."

Anyway, I went to the foreign trade department, and whether or not I got the special offer was up to them.

The district leaders told Su Hongmei to just go. It wouldn't matter if she failed.

Unexpectedly, Director Zhou of the Foreign Trade Department's reception office was very welcoming to Lu Qiaoge and took the initiative to ask what brought her here.

Lu Qiaoge explained her plans and told Director Zhou that the application report had been submitted and she expected a response in the next few days. Director Zhou was shocked but didn't hesitate. He directly told Lu Qiaoge, "It's such a coincidence. Mr. Zhen Xi called yesterday and said that a friend asked him if we could cooperate. I asked what kind of cooperation, and Zhen Xi said that his friend owns a clothing company. He said that clothing transactions are currently the least controversial. However, Zhen Xi is very straightforward. He told me directly that the other party's clothing is all surplus and slow-moving stock. The clothing factory is in Hong Kong and he doesn't want to go too far. He thinks that our area is very backward and we should be able to absorb his clothing. Zhen Xi said that he is just acting as an intermediary, and whether we want to or not is up to us."

Lu Qiaoge and Sister Su exchanged a glance.

Sister Su said, "Qiao Ge, why don't you make a phone call and ask first?"

So, Lu Qiaoge called Zhen Xi.

Nowadays, making a phone call, especially this kind of call, requires a special place and special personnel to accompany you.

Moreover, there are no mobile phones yet; they are mostly landlines, even in the port city.

Director Zhou glanced at the business card; it was the same as the one given to him.

It includes not only companies but also residences.

International long-distance calls have been launched in Jiangcheng, but they are not yet available for civilian use. You can't make calls at the post office; you can only do so through a special department.

For example, the reception office of the Foreign Trade Department.

Unexpectedly, Zhen Xi was actually at the company.

After exchanging pleasantries, Lu Qiaoge explained her purpose and plans.

Zhen Xi over there was quite surprised.

He said, "My friend wasn't thinking about a next time. He just wanted to get rid of the defective items. Some of the fabric here is faulty, and... there are also some old clothes, but the prices are very low. I'm just asking around for him. If he wants them, I can call him now."

Director Zhou and Sister Su both frowned.

There's nothing wrong with old clothes. Nowadays, clothes are worn out from the big ones and then the small ones. Many people buy new pants and then put patches on the knees and buttocks because those are the places that wear out the fastest. By adding patches in advance, they can wear them for a few more years.

Lu Qiaoge did not refuse outright, since there was no reply from above yet. If they disagreed, she could only wait two years to discuss it further.

But she made this call to find out about the clothing market in the port city.

She said, "Mr. Zhen, are you familiar with the clothing market in Gangcheng?"

Zhen Xi said, "I understand."

The Zhen Group's main businesses are building materials, minerals, and energy. Clothing is not its main business, but it has large department stores that naturally carry clothing, ranging from high-end to low-end.

However, these are all under the control of the eldest brother.

As for him, after taking him on a trip to the mainland, the old man became indifferent to him upon his return.

I don't want to think about the reasons, because thinking about them makes me irritable and gives me an unbearable headache.

After taking a walk around here, I realized that my life here is like paradise compared to the people here.

So, he was actually quite calm. After thinking for a moment, he told Lu Qiaoge about the clothing market in Hong Kong.

There are many clothing companies in the port city, most of which sell their products overseas.

Therefore, the competition is very fierce.

After listening to Zhen Xi's description of several companies, Lu Qiaoge had a better understanding of the situation.

After thanking Zhen Xi, Lu Qiaoge hung up the phone.

That phone call will cost a lot.

Now it's a two-way toll system; you have to pay on both sides...
