Chapter 329: Worry
"Where did the chick come from?" Seeing the chick, Bai Wenyan couldn't help but be surprised.
In the city, there are very few people who raise chickens, even those who have yards.
Usually pets, cats, dogs, and even sheep and pet pigs, but chickens are very rare.
"It's my family. Li Xi smiled and walked over to catch the chicken.
The chicks that have just hatched are fluffy and quite easy to catch. Li Xi caught the chick, put it into the house by the way, and covered it with a cover.
He planned to go back and send Bai Wenyan away, and then take a closer look at this chick to see what was different about it.
After all, the eggs that hatched this chick were born by the old hen on a spiritual oil lamp.
However, when catching this chick and holding the chick in his hand, Li Xi didn't feel that this chick was anything special compared to ordinary chicks. So for a moment, I couldn't help but be slightly disappointed.
But this disappointment was only a small one, after all, he didn't expect that egg to hatch a youkai in the first place.
Put the chicks up and come back again.
It didn't take long to wait for Fang Yunzhu who sent the invitation.
Li Xi invited people in and introduced Bai Wenyan.
Whether it was Fang Yunzhu or Bai Wenyan, they obviously had the intention of getting acquainted with each other, so the two women talked happily.
As for Bai Wenyan, needless to say, he looked at the celebrity status of Shangyunzhu and regarded the other party as his potential customer. And Fang Yunzhu deliberately befriended Bai Wenyan, obviously misunderstanding the relationship between the other party and Li Xi.
Sending Fang Yunzhu away, Bai Wenyan picked up the invitation and looked at it, this invitation, there are really many names on it, at least more than a hundred, close to two hundred.
Li Xi glanced at it a few times, and felt that his head was as big as a fight, and there were too many names on the invitation, and there were some celebrities among them.
Bai Wenyan watched it with relish, looked at it, but suddenly exclaimed, "Hey, Li Xi, Xu Xiaoman is also an invited guest." ”
"Is there something wrong?" Li Xi asked rhetorically.
Bai Wenyan was a little worried, "You forgot, Xu Xiaoman also bought a set of buttons in your hand." ”
When Li Xi heard this, he immediately came to his senses, "You mean?"
Bai Wenyan nodded and said: "Yes, Xu Xiaoman got such a set of buttons, is there any reason why she doesn't make a dress? I think she will wear this set of dresses on herself when she participates in the banquet this time." ”
Li Xi nodded, Bai Wenyan's worries are still very reasonable, as a fashion designer, her level naturally cannot be compared with Xu Xiaoman, even in her own heart, she knows it very well.
And the button dress, as an innovative dress, the reason why Bai Wenyan wants to participate in this banquet is to show this kind of dress at the banquet and promote it to the ladies at the banquet.
As the founder of the new dress, she herself is bound to receive a lot of attention at this banquet.
But if at this banquet, Xu Xiaoman also wore such a dress and also participated in the banquet. So at the banquet, will those ladies pay attention to her, or will they pay attention to Xu Xiaoman?
Not to mention the question of whether the dress she designed can be compared with Xu Xiaoman, just the fame between the two, the connections they have made, and the number of friends they know, Bai Wenyan asked herself, in front of the other party, she does not occupy any advantage.
Once Xu Xiaoman also participated in this banquet and wore dresses of the same nature, those noble ladies were afraid that they would only care about Xu Xiaoman, and would not care about Bai Wenyan.
"Then what do you mean?" Li Xi asked Bai Wenyan.
Bai Wenyan frowned slightly, "What can I mean? This Xu Xiaoman, since she is also among the invited guests, how can she not participate in this banquet? Since she has participated in this banquet, such a good opportunity, how can she have a reason not to wear this new style of dress? Li Xi, I am afraid that my dress will be influenced by her. ”
If the truth is really as Bai Wenyan guessed, Xu Xiaoman attended the banquet like her, and wore this new dress on her body in the same way. For Bai Wenyan, it doesn't really matter if he wears a dress or not.
Compared with Xu Xiaoman, not many people at the banquet would care about her. Not to mention that her appearance is not worse than her at all, just her age, she is younger than her. In addition, Xu Xiaoman's connections are much wider than hers. How can Bai Wenyan not be worried?
Li Xi smiled, "I mean, what are you going me to do? There is always a solution to everything, right, just because Xu Xiaoman went and wore a dress of the same nature as you, you won't go, right?"
"Of course I still want to go. Bai Wenyan snorted: "But...... , even if I go, I'm afraid I won't gain anything. ”
Li Xi said: "Don't forget, those buttons are in my hands." As for Xu Xiaoman, I only sold her a set of buttons. Even if she wants to steal your business, she can't do it without buttons. I don't believe she's able to make her own buttons. ”
"I know there's only one set of buttons. Bai Wenyan said: "But ...... , Li Xi, if Xu Xiaoman goes, the founder of the new button dress, in the eyes of others, will become her Xu Xiaoman. She has no dresses to sell, but no one will come to me to make this new dress, these people will think that I copied Xu Xiaoman. ”
to the upper class, especially at this level. Copyright law or copyright law is not really important. For people in this circle, their pursuit, take fine wine as an example, a certain famous wine, when they drink it, they absolutely only recognize the origin.
For the rest, even if you can get the other person's recipe and produce the same wine, even if it tastes the same or better, and sells it at a lower price, no one will accept it.
In the eyes of these people, it goes without saying that the taste is not good, and it doesn't matter if the price is not priced, what they pursue is itself that kind of higher-level spiritual enjoyment.
If these people think that Bai Wenyan plagiarized Xu Xiaoman. In the hearts of these people, I am afraid that not only will they not find Bai Wenyan to order a dress, but in their hearts, even if they don't say it, they will inevitably have a contempt for it.
"That's a problem. After listening to Bai Wenyan's explanation, Li Xi couldn't help but nodded, thinking, "Otherwise, let's talk to Xu Xiaoman and ask her not to wear this new dress to the banquet?"
"This ...... Can it work?" Listening to Li Xi's words, Bai Wenyan's heart suddenly moved, but when he thought of that result, he couldn't help but hesitate.
What Li Xi said is of course a good thing for her. But asking Xu Xiaoman not to wear this new dress at the banquet means that the other party will transfer the reputation of the founder of this new dress to himself.
In this way, Bai Wenyan certainly took advantage, but for the other party, it was a huge loss. She didn't think that Xu Xiaoman would agree to such a request, but thinking of Li Xi's vast magical powers, she faintly felt that if Li Xiken opened his mouth in person, it might not really be possible.
"I'll give it a try. Li Xi smiled.
"That'...... I'm going to leave it to you. Bai Wenyan's eyes couldn't help but stay on Li Xi for a long time, and his expression looked even more strange.
Obviously, she once again misunderstood what Li Xi meant. Not to mention that the two are just neighbors, even if they are friends, if the other party is willing to help them, how can they help to this extent?
Is this Li Xi really that kind of meaning to himself? It's just that you, a man, if you really have that kind of meaning, why don't you take the initiative to say it? You can't let yourself speak first, right?
To be honest, Bai Wenyan is still very satisfied with Li Xi. Even if something really happens to her and the other party, she will not have any resistance.
Anyway, Li Xi is single, she is also single, single men and women, especially in the mainstream society now, under the premise of having a good impression of each other, it is really normal for something to happen, and it doesn't even have to be for the purpose of getting married.
Even Bai Wenyan herself is a rather conservative woman. But women are conservative, largely because of their own living environment.
Or her work or life itself affects whether she will take the initiative to look for opportunities in some things. Rather than saying that women are conservative, there is something unhealthy about their minds themselves.
Of course, in ancient times, most women were still bound by this kind of thinking. But in modern times, the influence of life and environment is obviously more important than the influence of thought on women.
Therefore, if Li Xi took the initiative, directly or implicitly proposed to have something to do with Bai Wenyan, Bai Wenyan would certainly not refuse, let her take the initiative to propose it herself, and the conditions did not seem to be ripe to that point.
However, Li Xi naturally didn't think about it so much, he just felt that taking the golden wind scissors from Ding Doudou's hand should give the mother and daughter part of the compensation.
Of course, if Bai Wenyan took the initiative to implicitly or directly propose to have something to do with him, Li Xi would never refuse.
Even if the other party is a single mother, Li Xi obviously does not have a habit of cleanliness to the point of being sick in his heart, as a normal man, obviously no one can resist this kind of good thing.
Li Xi smiled again, "I'll contact Xu Xiaoman and see what she has to say." ”
She even thought about it, if Xu Xiaoman agreed, then of course it was easy to say anything, if Xu Xiaoman didn't agree, then it was a big deal to find an opportunity, use the Variety Fruit, become a demon, scare her at night, scare her sick, and she wouldn't participate in this banquet again, right?
Even, on Li Xi's body, there was an unused Plague Huang Pill.
If he was willing to use the Plague Pill on Xu Xiaoman, he didn't even need to frighten the other party. Of course, even if this is the case, it is necessary to prevent accidents, that is, Xu Xiaoman designed the button dress, which was actually for another person to wear, or designed for another person.
However, Li Xi feels that this new type of dress must be better worn on himself. Xu Xiaoman wore it on herself, and with her personal connections, she didn't need to make any explanations at all, and she could immediately let others know that she was the founder of this new type of dress.
If you wear it on someone else's body, you may not be able to get this effect. Even those who don't know the details of the dress mistakenly think that the dress is designed by Bai Wenyan wearing the same type of dress, it may not be impossible.
Therefore, for the sake of safety, Li Xi felt that it was best to discuss with Xu Xiaoman, if he could persuade the other party not to show this new type of dress at this banquet, it would be the best.
For this, Li Xi didn't even mind paying some price.
For Xu Xiaoman, if he had used that set of buttons to make a new dress. Xu Xiaoman, who realized the benefits of this new type of dress, needless to say, definitely wanted to hit the rest of the buttons in his hand.
The main purpose of Li Xi to keep this set of buttons for Bai Wenyan to use, but not to sell them to the outside world, is to compensate Bai Wenyan.
Otherwise, Xu Xiaoman is a good partner to work with.
Otherwise, Li Xi himself doesn't know how to design dresses, and what's the point of leaving so many buttons empty and not selling?
However, it is a win-win situation to cooperate with Xu Xiaoman, provide buttons by yourself, and the other party produces clothes.
Therefore, Li Xi thought about it for a while, and prepared Xu Xiaoman to contact.
However, as soon as he took out his mobile phone, Li Xi realized another problem, and he didn't seem to know Xu Xiaoman's contact information.
Tsundere!
For a while, Li Xi couldn't help but have such thoughts, after having the treasure book, others came to ask for themselves, but they didn't need to ask for others, and their own mentality seemed to have some subtle changes.
Otherwise, since a person like Xu Xiaoman took the initiative to visit him, he would definitely not have the same attitude towards the other party as he did at that time.
Even, if you put it in the past, when you didn't get the treasure book, you would dream that you would be able to get a chance to talk to the other party.
In the future, should you change your attitude towards those who take the initiative to visit your home? At the very least, you should still remember the phone number, right?
took out his mobile phone, Li Xi directly checked on the Internet, but found the phone number of Xu Xiaoman's company's business department.
Directly over the phone, this time the situation is obviously slightly different from the previous situation of Fang Yunzhu Company.
After all, Xu Xiaoman's company, compared with Fang Yunzhu's company, although it is also a production and sales enterprise, Xu Xiaoman, as a clothing designer, is still more inclined to service in the nature of his company.
Therefore, Li Xi's phone call was in the past, and after mentioning the new button and reporting his name, it was easy to contact Xu Xiaoman through the business department.
Xu Xiaoman was naturally overjoyed when he received a call from Li Xi.
In fact, just as Bai Wenyan was worried about, after Xu Xiaoman got the set of buttons, he returned to the company and immediately began to use this set of buttons to design a new dress. (To be continued.) )
