Chapter 233 Big Order

Lu Qiaoge went to the archives bureau.

Old Hu felt a little uneasy after seeing the note.

He said to Huang Juan, "If the Archives Bureau wants Qiao Ge to be transferred there, do you think Qiao Ge will agree?"

Huang Juan said firmly, "No, don't worry." She paused, then continued, "Besides, how could the archives bureau be short-staffed? I'm afraid there are plenty of people."

Old Hu thought about it and agreed. Besides, Qiao Ge still had so many things to do.

Leaving aside the instant noodles, the straw handicrafts in front of her alone would keep her busy for a while.

But it must be said that this girl is really bold enough to let go, and trusts Chang An and the others too much.

Lao Hu said to Wang Juan, "You go to the factory headquarters for the meeting, and I'll go to the food factory to keep an eye on things."

When Lao Hu arrived at the food factory, he went to the guardhouse first. The guard said that Chang An had come to work just as dawn was breaking.

Then Fan Xiaoyu arrived earlier than usual.

Other team members also arrived at work early.

Old Hu, with his hands behind his back, strolled around slowly.

Everyone was quite nervous at first, but they were so busy with other tasks that they couldn't pay attention to him.

Lao Hu expressed his satisfaction, saying that this was the kind of mental state one should have.

After expanding the scale, we applied to the higher authorities to convert them all into formal workers.

He also saw the nearly finished palm-leaf fans, and he had to admit, they were beautifully woven.

Chang An's hands are so skillful!

If he really is Lao Lin's youngest son, should Lao Lin be happy or sad to know that his son is so skilled in straw weaving?
Old Hu sighed silently.

Lu Qiaoge was in the basement of the archives bureau, working with other seconded colleagues to organize materials.

I must say, there's a lot of material here, and it's quite messy. Apparently, they've been organizing it all along, but then it stopped for a while. The leaders of the archives bureau sealed it off and wouldn't let anyone in.

Fortunately, much of the information here has been preserved.

Now that the old director has returned, he has been trying to clean up this place.

However, relying on the employees of the unit itself would be much slower.

After all, they still have their own jobs to do.

Temporary transfer is the best solution.

Dong Xiangqin hadn't expected Lu Qiaoge to be so efficient.

It's fast to look up information, fast to record it, and even faster to categorize it.

She's really a capable young lady.

No wonder Director Zhou of the Foreign Trade Department wanted to transfer Lu Qiaoge to his unit.

Even Deputy Director Li, standing next to Dong Xiangqin, had the same idea.

The morning passed quickly.

Lu Qiaoge had a few things on her mind, but none of them were related to Red Star Lake.

However, there is a record that says the old Taoist priest the old tortoise used to follow.

His Taoist name is Lingxuzi.

However, he is a legendary figure, and I've only mentioned his background here.

He had a Taoist temple outside the city in his early years.

It is said that the incense is still very popular.

Taoist priests have always been skilled in medicine, so Lingxuzi's medical skills were quite good.

He also frequently provided medical treatment to the local people.

One year later, the Taoist temple caught fire. After the nearby people put out the fire, they discovered that Lingxuzi was missing, as were the young Taoist boy and the old tortoise who were with him.

There are many legends, some of which say that the fire was actually the great fire that allowed Lingxuzi to attain immortality.

Some people say that Lingxuzi went to protect his country.

Anyway, there is anything to say.

The Taoist temple was never rebuilt, and later the nearby residents all moved out.

Lu Qiaoge thought about the location and realized it seemed to be in a cornfield in Manshan Commune.

Therefore, Lingxuzi was the old tortoise's former master.

Then there were other miscellaneous things, which Lu Qiaoge memorized, knowing she might need them someday. In the afternoon, Director Hu, along with Chang An and the official seal, came to the archives to pick up Lu Qiaoge.

The sample was made.

There are two types of palm-leaf fans: one with a blooming lotus pattern and the other with a plum blossom pattern.

The fan handle is made of a knotted rope woven with red silk thread, with tassels at the bottom.

This was bought by Lu Qiaoge from the department store yesterday.

The melon seed basket has also been improved.

The round one has been changed to a hexagonal one. However, there is still a round one, but the lid has been improved.

I also made a set of tea mats.

Although they are all made of straw, they are undoubtedly exquisite handicrafts.

This gave Lu Qiaoge a different perspective.

Nowadays, there is no shortage of raw materials for making handicrafts. Craftsmen can find plenty of them if they look for them. What is lacking now is a sales channel.

Therefore, Zhen Xi's storyline is very important and needs to be well maintained.

Unsurprisingly, Zhen Xi and the secretary were satisfied with the sample.

Zhen Xi used her fountain pen to sign the contract, her Hong Kong accent filled with satisfaction: "Director Lu, I really like the craftsmanship of this batch of straw weaving. I hope to deliver it on time in two months."

"Mr. Zhen, rest assured, we will definitely complete it on schedule."

Lu Qiaoge smiled and nodded, looking at the numbers on the contract—5,000 of each type of melon seed basket and 3,000 of each type of palm-leaf fan.

The tea mat was a pleasant surprise.

They actually ordered 5,000 sets.

The price of the palm-leaf fan is the same as that of the melon seed basket, and the fan pendant will be made of knotted rope; this does not need to be changed.

It's also very convenient for those who buy it to exchange it for gold, silver, or jade.

A set of tea mats costs 3.6 yuan.

Lu Qiaoge tapped her fingertips lightly on the table.

This is quite a large order.

Nearly 100,000 yuan.

Even without another payment, it's enough to live on for a year.

She looked back.

The meeting in the afternoon was attended not only by the Foreign Trade Section, but also by the Foreign Trade Bureau and Vice Mayor Xu.

They didn't sit at the table; they just sat on chairs against the wall of the conference room.

Yesterday's agreement not only shocked the Foreign Trade Bureau but also Vice Mayor Xu. Furthermore, Elder Bai instructed that they must do everything in their power to assist Lu Qiaoge in completing the mission.

It's worth noting that Jiangcheng ranked last in the country last year when it came to handicrafts.

This year we got a melon seed basket, but we still only climbed from last place to fifth from last.

Lu Qiaoge, as the factory director, and Director Hu, as the director of the subdistrict office, participated in the signing of the order.

Zhen Xi didn't linger. He said, "I won't wait any longer. But if you have any questions or difficulties after the machine arrives, you can call me."

As the highest-ranking official here, Vice Mayor Xu expressed his gratitude to Zhen Xi.

After some polite exchanges and small talk, the security personnel escorted Zhen Xi and her group to the Swan Hotel.

Vice Mayor Xu looked at the contract with a beaming smile: "Xiao Lu, this is Jiangcheng's first major foreign trade order this year, we must make sure it's done well!"

Lu Qiaoge smiled and said, "Please rest assured, leader, I guarantee I will complete the task."

Vice Mayor Xu laughed heartily.

He told the people from the Foreign Trade Bureau to stay behind, and went back to report on the situation.

Lu Qiaoge whispered to Director Hu, "We definitely can't handle so many orders. Not to mention we still have a batch of melon seed baskets on hand."

Director Hu took the initiative to delegate authority: "Qiao Ge, you go and talk to them. Any cooperation is fine. At this time, we need to stand on the same side. The main purpose is to complete the mission and earn foreign exchange for the country."

He really doesn't understand business, so it's best not to get involved.

Lu Qiaoge nodded and said with a smile, "Then I understand."

After saying that, she went to find Director Zhou and Sister Su.

 If you have any monthly passes, please vote for me! Thank you so much!
