After hanging up the phone and paying the money, Chu Heng turned back to the car, lit a cigarette and took a few puffs. Then he started the car and went to Casserole House, where he booked three large tables.
When he came out of the hotel, it was just before eleven o'clock.
“I almost forgot, I haven’t picked up my shoes yet.”
Chu Heng returned to the car and was about to go home for a bite of food, when he suddenly remembered that he had caused Liu Haokong to mess up some time ago. I haven't picked up the pairs of shoes made by that shoe store, so I turned the car around and headed towards the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
After such a long period of preparation, the cloth shoe store has opened a few days ago.
Inspired by the styles of some later generations of cloth shoes provided by Chu Heng, Gao Ling designed many novel styles, coupled with the long history as a gimmick, and Liu Haokong spent a lot of money to ask Tang's father to develop the magic of medicated insoles. As a result, the shoe store's business is pretty good.
Although it is not as good as jewelry shops and clothing stores that make money through design and creativity, judging from the current situation, it should be able to earn four to five thousand dollars a month.
This is already a lot for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which has green eyes due to the shortage of foreign exchange.
Liu Haokong was naturally rewarded for this, and he will be promoted and entrusted with important tasks soon.
When Mo Mo opened two shops for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, either of which made much more money than a shoe store, and also made millions in foreign exchange, he was still a temporary secondment worker who did not want to be named. When someone from Chu learned the news, he was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth and spit on his old friend!
"he...tui!"
"Die Tianlong!"
"Tu tu tu tu tu!"
Volga soon arrived at the shops outside the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Stop.
Gao Ling and Yin Huijie, a newlywed couple who were flirting in the room, heard the noise and hurried out.
"Boss, why are you so free today?"
The two of them had just held their wedding some time ago. After getting their licenses to work, they were inseparable all day long, and their whole bodies exuded the sour stench of love.
"Why don't I make a few pairs of shoes here? I happen to have some free time, so I came to pick them up."
Chu Heng looked at Yin Huijie, who was nestling next to Gao Ling. Seeing how annoying they were, I didn't follow the two of them to chat any longer, just exchanged a few words and then went into the shoe store.
“Hi, Chu! Long time no see!”
As soon as he entered the room, a blond and blue-eyed foreigner who was sitting on the sofa and cooperating with the store's master to measure the size of his feet suddenly waved to him in surprise.
It was Ishbel, a Romanian who often played cards with Chu Heng and Avima. But later on, Chu Heng stopped playing and had less contact with her.
“Hi, I didn’t expect to meet you here.”
Chu Heng was also very happy to see him again. He quickly walked over and sat next to him, and chatted for a while. After Ishbel measured the size, paid the deposit and left, he went to the store employees and took away his pairs of shoes.
A total of three pairs of shoes, all custom-made.
The soles are made of fine, wear-resistant yellow cowhide.
The upper is a top-notch dress. It is made of pig bristles, hair and other hair, and is made of boiling, drawing, and spinning. It does not need to be brushed with water in your life. Use an insole when wearing it. If the inside of the shoe is dirty, just wear it. When washing insoles, the upper surface will not be stained with oil or dirt. If it is dirty, just brush it with a soft-bristled dry brush. It is the highest-grade cloth shoe fabric.
“Tsk, cloth shoes are still comfortable to wear!”
Back in the car, Chu Heng took off his big leather shoes and put on a pair of new cloth shoes, which were light and comfortable. They are also breathable. Compared with leather shoes, apart from the appearance, they are much better than leather shoes.
“Yes, if I don’t go to any formal occasions in the future, I will wear it!”
Stretching his legs, Chu Heng nodded with satisfaction, then quickly started the car and drove away.
Not long after, he returned to Banche Alley. He was already a little hungry and was about to enter the hospital when an aunt from the next door courtyard who was standing in the alley chatting with someone trotted over quickly: "Chu Suo ! "Alas! "
Chu Heng quickly stopped walking towards the door, turned around and looked at the neighbor aunt, and asked: "What's wrong, Aunt He."
"I heard that you want to give Is your unit building a staff building?" Aunt He asked with a gossipy face.
Damn it!
Does the news spread so quickly?
Chu Heng was stunned for a moment and couldn’t help but be a little confused: “Who did you listen to?”
“Hey, isn’t that right? A relative of mine works at Wuliangdian in District Six. "She also heard what others said, saying it was your wife who told them. She didn't know whether it was true or not, so she asked me to ask you." Aunt He said.
Tsk!
When did this woman become so loose-lipped?
Chu Heng, who wanted to give the employees a surprise, smiled helplessly when he heard this, nodded simply, and admitted: "Yes, I have such an idea, and I have been busy working on it these past two days! "
"Good guy, it's really amazing." Aunt He was suddenly surprised, and then quickly asked: " So when do you plan to build it? Where is it? Do you have the money? "
"...What, Aunt He, let's talk about it later, I'll go back to eat first." >
Looking at Aunt He who was as talkative as a machine gun, Chu Heng, whose stomach was pounding, was interested in chatting with her, turned around and left in a hurry.
...
Time soon came to evening, the sun was setting in the west, and the orange glow dyed half of the sky.
"I'm leaving, Sister Guizhi. I won't be back to eat at night."
"Did you eat at home? What are you busy with today?"
"Oops, it's too late, let's talk about it later!"
Chu Heng, who had taken an afternoon nap at home, came out of the house with two large boxes of Maotai liquor and a cigarette of good fortune. After stuffing the things into the trunk, he quickly got in the car and rushed towards the casserole house.
At around 5:30, Chu Heng came to the restaurant. He had just gotten off work and there were not many customers in the store, only a few tables.
“Comrade Chu is here.”
The hotel manager saw him coming in and greeted him enthusiastically. He glanced at the two boxes of Maotai he brought in and was speechless, then quickly stretched out his hand. He took a box and said: "Hey, you are in quite a show today. The wine alone is worth seventy or eighty!"
< br>"Hey, I'm not asking for help. It's too bad and I can't do anything about it." Chu Heng chatted with him while holding a drink, and walked towards the three tables he had reserved. When he came to them, he put down his things. Finally, he opened the cigarette and gave the other party a pack, and then asked: "How is the food prepared?"
"Don't worry, it's been prepared early and the food will be served on time at six o'clock." The manager smiled.
“Sorry for your trouble.”
Chu Heng chatted with him for a few more words, and the invited guests came over.
The first one is the old company commander of the Materials Bureau. He has to build a building and a guest house. Once he gets it, he will inevitably trouble Wei Chaoying to help coordinate all parties, so he must be hired.
The old company commander spotted Chu Heng when he came in. After saying hello, he quickly walked forward, pulled him curiously and asked: "Why are you so unhappy and suddenly offering wine? Today Who are you? ”
"You'll know later. Sit down first. Sit down first. I'll greet you at the door." After pulling the old company commander to sit down, Chu Heng hurried out of the hotel and prepared to greet other guests.
