Chapter Seventy-Three: The Gift

The next day was the weekend, and Tian Chuan had already made an appointment to meet Xu Jingyi.

The meeting scene was a little awkward, and the two were a little uncomfortable with their current relationship and didn't know how to get along.

Downstairs in Xu Jingyi's dormitory, the two were silent for a few seconds, and Xu Jingyi spoke first: "Is the trip to the United States still going well?"

Tian Chuan felt that this meeting was too embarrassing, so he said, "It's going well, let's get in the car and talk." ”

Xu Jingyi hesitated for a moment and got into the car with Tian Chuan. Tian Chuan took Xu Jingyi to the vicinity of Sanlitun, wanting to find a café to sit down and chat. On the way, Tian Chuan picked up the computer, perfume and bag he bought for Xu Jingyi from the passenger seat, handed it to Xu Jingyi, who was sitting in the back seat, and said, "Give it to you." ”

Xu Jingyi took it and looked at it, put it on the seat next to her, and said, "It's too expensive." Now we don't have anything special to do with each other, and I feel a burden on my heart to collect such an expensive thing from you. ”

Tagawa said, "Don't deliberately treat yourself as an outsider. I was over there, and when I thought of you when I was shopping, I bought you one. You know, I don't mean anything else, since I brought it, you can just use it, it's all commonly used things. There are some American movies and TV series on the computer, which can be watched casually, which is helpful for learning English. ”

Xu Jingyi didn't say anything more, just sat quietly in the car until she arrived at her destination.

After getting off the bus, I entered a small café, and the owner was the only one sitting bored, holding a book and reading. The boss is a Westerner, and when he saw them enter the door, he came over and asked if he needed them, and then went back to make coffee, without a superfluous word, but also quietly.

The two sat quietly for a while, and then Tagawa said, "This is my first time going to the United States, and I planned to take a closer look at the agricultural production in the United States, so I planned three self-driving trips. One day in Illinois, three days in the Central Valley of California, and two days in Montana. But with the exception of a more detailed visit to a farmer's home in Ednois, the other two places were in a hurry, purely sightseeing. I took a lot of landscape photos, but I didn't get any useful information about agricultural production. ”

"When I was in Montana, shortly after driving away from Billings, I heard John Lennon's 'Country road, take me home' on the radio, and suddenly I felt a strong homesickness in my heart, and I was no longer in the mood to see any scenery. It's funny to think that you rushed to Helena and then to San Francisco, only to have your return trip not even a minute earlier. Most of the things that are delivered to you are bought in San Francisco. At that time, in order to spend the morning before boarding, I went to San Francisco's Central Street for half a day and bought a lot of things. When I bought something for you, I was worried that you wouldn't accept it, but I finally bought it. ”

Tian Chuan chattered like this, Xu Jingyi sat there and listened quietly, holding her chin with her hands, staring at Tian Chuan. Suddenly, he asked, "Tian Chuan, what kind of mood do you have in your heart for me?"

Tagawa paused and said, "It's between family and friends, it should be closer than friends, I can't tell, a kind of concern, or I miss it if I don't see it for a long time, but I don't have the heart-warming feeling written in the novel." When I'm with you before the Chinese New Year, I feel that way occasionally. ”

Xu Jingyi didn't speak for a long time. At this time, there was a faint music in the café, and John Lennon's slightly hoarse singing voice sounded, which was the song "Country road, take me home". Tian Chuan couldn't help but hum along, and then the boss's pure American western accent also sang, and finally Xu Jingyi also hummed along with the smooth melody.

Almost heaven west Virginia

Blue Ridge Mountains Shenandoah river

Life is old there older than the trees

Younger than the mountains blowing like a breeze

Country roads take me home

To the place I belong

West Virginia mountain momma

Take me home country roads

……

At this time, Tian Chuan and Xu Jingyi did not have that homesick mood, but were just immersed in the beautiful singing.

After singing a song, the two smiled knowingly, stood up, Tian Chuan pressed a hundred-yuan bill under the cup, and walked out of the café hand in hand with Xu Jingyi, feeling cheerful, throwing the feeling of homesickness to the boss who eavesdropped on them.

Coming out of Sanlitun, Tian Chuan took Xu Jingyi to Shijingshan Amusement Park, and the two sat on all kinds of amusement equipment and played until the evening before sending her back to school.

In this day's relationship, the two tacitly did not mention Xiaohui.

On Sunday, Tian Chuan drove from the capital, first to Jin City, and then to Jiuhai, and arrived at Wu Hongjian's agricultural machinery agency at 9 o'clock in the morning. The consignment point is full of people, business is quite good, and the sales of two new agricultural machinery are very hot. The concept of hunger marketing proposed by Tagawa and the current situation of short supply caused by production capacity constraints have made the two agricultural machinery that have good sales even more prosperous. Now everyone is arguing the most is the pick-up date, Tian Chuan knows in his heart, in fact, the harvester and on-demand machine are basically able to arrive before the summer harvest, especially in Beijing and Tianjin, but also to try to meet the supply, in order to expand the influence of machinery companies. Only when the summer harvest is approaching the order* may not be able to catch up with the wheat harvest.

Seeing Tian Chuan walk into the store, Wu Hongjian left a large group of customers surrounding him, welcomed Tian Chuan into the store, and asked, "Why did Tian Chuan have time to come here today? Is there a new agricultural machinery on the market?" Tian Chuan smiled and said, "Two things." One is to take a look at the sales of harvesters and on-demand seeders, and the other is that the ridge mulching machine has been officially put into production, and I will send you some information. You have a lot of cotton in the old sea, with this baby, the work of buckling the film is easy, and two people can complete more than 150 acres of buckle film work in a day. ”

When Wu Hongjian heard this, he immediately came to his senses and hurriedly asked: "Is the machine expensive? Is it easy to operate? Is there any stock? This year's cotton will have to be planted in more than a month, and no matter how slow it is, it will not be able to catch up with this year's allocation." ”

The people around saw that they were talking endlessly, and they were a little unhappy, and they all gathered around to ask about the arrival time of the harvester. Wu Hongjian saw that it was not a solution, and said to Tian Chuan: "Tian Chuan, you give everyone a quasi-letter, otherwise you will not be at ease." Tian Chuan asked about the number of harvesters and on-demand machines sold, and they were more than 200 units, so he promised everyone: "Don't worry, I am the boss of the on-demand planter that makes harvesters." Here I would like to give you a promise, all harvesters and on-demand machines before the end of April, as long as the row number is within 500, can get the machine before the wheat harvest at the end of May. No matter how late the time is, or how many of them are, it will be time to look at the overall production situation. ”

He saw that everyone was quiet, and said to everyone: "The harvester and the on-demand planter are not in a hurry, we have just started mass production of the ridge mulching machine, which can be used to buckle the mulch film while ridges, and can do more than 100 acres of land a day, if you are interested, you can take a look." It is also driven by a 25-horsepower tractor, 751. I have a video disc of the machine working, so if you are interested, you can take a look at it. As he spoke, he handed the CD of the promotional video to Wu Hongjian.

Wu Hongjian immediately found the VCD player, loaded the disc into the machine, and played it. Everyone present gathered around to watch. Soon, after watching the promotional video in just five minutes, everyone immediately surrounded Tian Chuan, scrambling to ask about the situation of the ridge laminating machine, everyone felt the business opportunities here, and the most concerned question was the reliability of the machine, and when it could arrive. After all, cotton sowing is imminent, and if you can't catch up with this batch of farmers, you will have to wait for next year.

Tagawa said, "Everyone, be quiet. If you have the intention to buy, you will first register with Uncle Wu, and I will take a look at the * quantity to determine the final arrival time. ”

The people present are basically professional agricultural machinery service households, and they are quite sensitive to the agricultural time corresponding to agricultural machinery, and immediately grasped the key to the problem and immediately found Wu Hongjian to start registration. The final result was a direct order of 11 units, but if the order could not be received within five days, the order would be cancelled.

Tian Chuan picked up the phone and called Jiang Jianbing directly: "Jianbing, within three days, can you send 30 ridge mulching machines to Jiuhai?"

Jiang Jianbing said: "No problem, the day after tomorrow, I will find two extended trucks and send 40 units over." ”

"Okay, then send it the day after tomorrow. Now is the season of the old sea cotton, we try to catch up with this season and push out the ridge mulching machine. Assign an after-sales technician to be stationed in Jiuhai, and then complete the spare parts, and prepare two spare machines to prevent the occurrence of machines that need to be overhauled and affect the agricultural time. ”

Putting down the phone, Tagawa said to everyone: "The machine can be delivered the day after tomorrow, and the purchase mode is the same as before, you can pay in one lump sum or in two installments." He also said to Wu Hongjian: "Sell it according to the quantity of 40 units first, and then discuss with Jiang Jianbing when the arrival time exceeds 40 units." ”

It was busy until noon, and the store was finally cleared. Wu Hongjian pulled Tian Chuan and went home for lunch.

Tian Chuan gave Wu Hongjian two bottles of foreign wine brought back from the United States, and took out snacks, children's books, toys, etc., for Xiaohui's younger siblings and distributed them to them. The last thing I took out was the books, CDs, and computers for Xiaohui.

Seeing the laptop that Tian Chuan took out, Wu Hongjian tried his best to refuse, saying that the gift was too valuable. Tian Chuan said: "This is for Xiaohui to learn English and learn computers, in fact, the two bottles of wine that are not as expensive as the two bottles of wine that you are given." Our relationship, this 10,000 yuan thing, what are you still pushing around, it's not a joke. He gave Wu Hongjian two bottles of wine, one bottle was the 82-year-old Lafaite Manor, and the other bottle was the most famous Rémy Martin XO in China at that time, the total value was far more than the laptop, but if you count the various genuine software installed in the computer, it is difficult to say.

Seeing that Wu Hongjian stopped talking, Tian Chuan smiled again: "82-year-old Lafey is famous and the price is high, but the 1993 vintage Lafeite Manor is not bad, but the time is relatively short now, the total amount on the market is still very large, and the vintage is insufficient, and the characteristics of the wine have not been fully brought into play, and now it is only 60 US dollars a bottle, I directly bought four barrels and stored them in a winery in California." A barrel can be filled with 300 bottles, and after a few years, a bottle can be sold for at least four or five hundred dollars, which can make a small profit. ”

AFTER BRAGGING WITH WU HONGJIAN FOR A WHILE, AFTER LUNCH, TIAN CHUAN CHATTED WITH XIAOHUI ABOUT STUDYING, TAUGHT HER THE BASIC OPERATION OF THE COMPUTER, AND ASKED HER TO FOLLOW THE ELECTRONIC TUTORIAL TO FAMILIARIZE HERSELF WITH THE OPERATION OF WINDOWS AND OFFICE, AND THEN LEFT IN A HURRY.
