Chapter 982 Borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha
I have to say that Lu Miao guessed it right.
She has excellent foreign language skills and ideas, and has stood out in the Canton Fair twice in a row.
Relevant departments of the Central Government have noticed her for a long time.
There were various conferences held before and after the year, and she was included in three of the ten conferences.
The biggest controversy among high-level departments now is that she has acquired shares in private companies.
If she is re-recruited, should she retain her administrative position...
Back to the present, Lu Miao listened as Tang Mei talked about the new year.
After roughly understanding the situation, Lu Miao nodded:
"I know, I'll take a look and deal with it in the next two days."
Dozens of people have been here, and it’s definitely impossible to come back every year.
Just go back to the important ones.
Lu Miao thought about it and took action the next day.
Lu Miao has been busy for two days with New Year greetings.
After being busy for a while, Lu Miao took Minmin, Shi An and the others to several nearby markets for an afternoon before the children started school.
I picked up some of the food the children liked and bought it back.
The main thing is to take Minmin around and adapt to life in the city.
I arrived home just in time to catch up with Chen Xiangdong and Mei Zi.
It's just the right time for them to come.
Lu Miao took advantage of the situation and handed Minmin over to Meizi.
Lu Miao originally considered improving the food supply to keep Minmin looking good.
Develop your physical fitness first.
But Minmin is too sensible.
I always remember what my aunt said when she was in her hometown, bringing her out to make money.
Not only is she not allowed to make money now, she can't find any work even if she stays in the small courtyard.
Minmin was not only unable to relax after all the twists and turns, she was also constantly in panic.
Lu Miao was also at a loss.
I just thought of arranging Minmin to go to the factory courtyard first.
See if it's sweeping the floor or doing something else.
In short, let's fool around first to make Minmin feel at ease.
After Lu Miao and Mei Zi introduced Minmin, they said:
"Just look at the arrangements and leave any work to her."
Minmin nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice, actively expressing that she was very capable.
But she didn't know that behind her, out of sight, her aunt kept blinking and shaking her head at Aunt Meizi in front of her.
Mei Zi showed off her wisdom and understood what was going on, so she nodded and cooperated with Lu Miao.
She told Minmin to be obedient when working, otherwise she would not be allowed to work.
Min Min believed it and kept nodding.
Lu Miao took advantage of the situation and said to her:
"First of all, the first thing is to be polite. When you see someone, you need to know how to call them, brother, sister, uncle, aunt. If you are older, call them grandpa or grandma."
Minmin's eyes were dazzling like a frightened deer, and she was a little afraid to open her mouth, but she still nodded and wrote it down.
Let’s talk about Chen Xiangdong.
There was little work in the factory yard, so he was anxious to find Lu Miao because of the engineering team.
The labor costs of the engineering team are settled half a month.
The engineering company started working on the sixth day of the new year.
However, because the wages of workers from the previous year have not been settled clearly, no one has been arranged to come to work in the past few days.
Chen Xiangdong was afraid of delaying things, so he ran here several times when he heard that she was coming back, but failed every time.
This time he learned the lesson wisely. Coming in the evening really allowed him to catch up a little bit.
He brought the receipt sheet. Lu Miao sat at the table, tilted her head and rubbed her fingers in her hair, and read the receipt sheet carefully.
When Tang Mei poured tea for them, she asked:
"How much is it?"
Lu Miao looked at her nose with her eyes and her nose with her heart and said calmly:
"Not much, maybe two hundred yuan."
Tang Mei inhaled:
"Hey! Two hundred, that's a lot!" Lu Miao said "hmm" and explained perfunctorily:
"You haven't seen it before. It's a big place over there."
Tang Mei nodded and said no more.
Chen Xiangdong sat across the table and looked up at Lu Miao.
Chen Xiangdong brought the receipt. If others don't know how much it is, how can he not know?
The number of manpower in the engineering team is increasing day by day.
Not counting other miscellaneous expenses, the labor cost alone costs one thousand sixty-six per period.
Where is what two hundred?
And he just visited the yard over there yesterday.
Less than one-third of the second floor has been built. According to the original plan, the yard there will be busy for at least two more months.
Counting the consumables and miscellaneous items, each one costs ten thousand to several thousand, which is too much to finish.
Lu Miao obviously didn't intend to let the elders in the family know what she meant.
Chen Xiangdong lowered his head and continued drinking water without saying anything.
Lu Miao did a little calculation in her heart and said:
"I know about this. I will withdraw the money for you tomorrow. Please make another trip then."
Chen Xiangdong nodded:
"Easy to say."
After chatting for a while about the company's recent operations, it was time for the Fu family to eat, and Chen Xiangdong and Mei Zi left first.
Besides, after withdrawing the money and giving it to Chen Xiangdong the next day, Lu Miao took some time to walk around the largest department store in Wangfujing.
Lu Miao always felt good about the orchid tea sent by the Xue family earlier.
Although he doesn't know much about tea, Lu Miao trusts his own words.
She was so thoughtful that she bought more than a dozen sets of orchid tea in high-end gift boxes at the department store in the morning, and took it to the National Cultural Center in the afternoon.
Not to mention that Huidi Orchid is a famous tea.
It's tea in a high-end gift box, which costs thirty-five yuan a set, and there are only two taels in it.
If it can be sold at this price, can it be a bad thing?
Lu Miao carried the things to the cultural center, and all the masters had one set.
If she only gave such an expensive thing to one person, it would be nothing.
But they gave away so many at once, which frightened all the old masters.
After all, after living such a long life, the old masters could sense that Lu Miao must have something to ask for.
They immediately pressed down the items and confiscated them until Lu Miao had something to say.
It doesn't matter how important it is, if they can help easily, they will help.
As for the things, they all told Lu Miao to take them back and return them so that she would not spend any money.
"Seniors, just accept it. If you buy this tea, the price is indeed not cheap, but I got this from a friend. Isn't this just the Chinese New Year?"
Lu Miao blinked and said with a playful smile:
"Make the best use of everything. I took it by the way and gave it to my seniors for New Year greetings."
Sent?
The old masters looked at each other, obviously not believing what Lu Miao said.
Lu Miao continued half-truthfully:
"The seniors know the nature of my work. This time I went back to my hometown for the Chinese New Year, and the village there happened to be working on a sideline business. The purpose of sending these teas was to test the market. The seniors each took a copy and gave me some feedback after a while. What’s the taste and texture like?”
The old masters looked at each other again, but they didn't question Lu Miao as much as before.
Lu Miao changed the subject, said "hehe" twice, and then said:
"Of course, tea leaves and flowers are offered to Buddha, and I do have something to ask of my seniors."
Seeing everyone's eyes falling on him again, Lu Miao explained calmly:
"It's not a violation of discipline, but there is a pickle jar in my house. It feels like an antique. I just thought that my seniors often dealt with cultural relics, so they must know more about it..."
Having said this, Lu Miao didn't say any more.
The old master understood what she meant.
Seeing that it was indeed not a violation of discipline, the masters laughed out loud:
"If you can trust me, just bring the jar over and we'll show it to you!"
Lu Miao nodded quickly, blinked and asked:
"What about these tea leaves?"
Master Dong, who was restoring cultural relics and ancient paintings, looked around at the others and was the first to smile:
"Aren't you still waiting for us to give you feedback? Take it!"
