Chapter 117: Freemasonry
"Oh, that's right!" Zhou Zongnan was stunned, and then asked: "Xiao Ming, how many of these plants are there in your company, I need to study more!" Did you know that this is probably a new plant that has never been discovered in human history, and it is very meaningful? ”
Liu Ming was even more embarrassed: "Grandpa Zhou, I came today because this kind of wine heart grass has reached the stage of being out of stock, and there is not much left in our winery, but I can't find a place to specialize in the production of this grass. I wish you could tell me where it came from, so that we could solve the crisis in our factory, but now it seems unlikely! ”
When Zhou Zongnan heard this, he felt anxious for a while, and his snow-white hair began to shake up without wind, Zhou Zongnan paced back and forth restlessly in the office, and it took a long time before he stopped and said, "No!" Xiao Ming, no matter what, you have to get me dozens of plants, I want to study and study it well, this is very important to me! Xiao Ming, can you understand? ”
Liu Ming looked at Zhou Zongnan's eyes full of longing, and Liu Ming was even more helpless: "Grandpa Zhou, it's not that I won't help you, it's that I can't help it!" The wine heart grass has always been kept by our general manager Long, and without her permission, it can't flow out! Not to mention the fact that our distillery itself is now in danger of going out of production! ”
Zhou Zongnan grabbed Liu Ming's arm and said, "It's better to take me to see your General Manager Long, and I'll go and tell her in person, I think she will be reasonable!" ”
Zhou Zongnan pulled Liu Ming and walked out the door! Liu Ming was pulled out by Zhou Zongnan with tears and laughter! On the way out, the two met a tall and dignified young woman, who was very pretty.
Her beautiful and handsome face was full of surprise at this time, and her eyes were full of puzzlement. said crisply to the two people who were pulling and pulling: "Professor Zhou, ...... are you?"
When Zhou Zongnan saw this little girl, his old face couldn't help but turn red, and he snorted, "Oh." It turned out to be Xiaoqin, it's okay. I have something to go out, you can get busy first, and I'll talk about something when I come back! After speaking, Liu Ming, who was looking at Xiaoqin reluctantly, hurriedly walked out. ”
Xiaoqin, whose full name is Qin Qin, is twenty-eight years old this year, a standard young woman to be married!
But she's still worried. It's not because she doesn't want to get married, but she's too beautiful, but anyone who sees her will hold her high, few people can think of those vulgarities in the world in front of her, and Qin Qin, who doesn't want to be an older youth, can only stay in the boudoir.
As Zhou Zongnan's assistant. He is also the only disciple of Zhou Zongnan, and it can be said that he has won the true biography of Zhou Zongnan, and his knowledge and understanding of botany are more thorough than those of ordinary experts!
Qin Qin looked at Zhou Zongnan who was pulling Liu Ming away suspiciously, this is not like the usual Zhou Zongnan! Ordinary Zhou Zongnan is very steady, and there is rarely a smile on his face, although this does not prevent him from being kind, but he gives people more of the majesty of a superior person, and completely abandons his identity like today. She was amazed by how she behaved like a child.
Shaking his head, he pushed open the door of Zhou Zongnan's office, and his eyes habitually swept to the table. Because Zhou Zongnan was used to not putting the book back in place after reading it, and the first thing Qin Qin did when he entered Zhou Zongnan's office was always to pack up the books he didn't put back.
But today, her eyes were not attracted by the messy books, but on the verdant wine grass on the table.
Qin Qin was immediately attracted by it, so green, so delicate, so bright. With such vitality, Qin Qin couldn't help but gently hold it in the palm of his hand. I kept sighing again and again in my heart.
But when she exhausted her knowledge, she couldn't tell what kind of plant it was, and what it was called. When there were any characteristics, Qin Qin went a little crazy.
Botanical knowledge has always been her pride, but now her self-confidence has never been challenged in front of this wineweed.
Qin Qin couldn't tolerate it, she grabbed the wine grass in her hand, looked at it over and over again, smelled it over and over again, ravaged the book again and again, and when she quieted down, she finally had to admit that this was a plant that she didn't know anything about.
Qin Qin had the urge to take it into slices at the first time, but when she remembered the appearance of Zhou Zongnan coming back to make herself into slices, she still chose to be patient for the time being, eagerly waiting for Zhou Zongnan's return, and came back to tell her what kind of plant this was, and who found this plant to tell her?
At this time, Zhou Zongnan was in Long Ling'er's office and was excitedly negotiating with her.
Long Ling'er looked helplessly at the old man with snow-white hair and a face that was dissatisfied with Hongxia because of excitement, and said, "Professor Zhou, why don't you understand? If I had known what this plant was, I wouldn't have been so anxious! If I had known who found it, Liu Ming wouldn't have been in your office! ”
"And you asked us to provide you with enough wine herbs for you to study, which we can't do! In the case that we are not satisfied, it is difficult for us to provide you, and the liquidated damages are not a small amount! ”
"So far we have stopped receiving all orders, but even so, the unfinished orders are not what we have on hand to meet the winegrass, how can we possibly provide for your research? So Professor Zhou, I'm really sorry! But I promise you, once we find the provider of Chynymph, we'll rule you as soon as possible! ”
Long Ling'er's reply is already polite enough, if it were someone else, he would have been unceremoniously ordered to be evicted!
However, Zhou Zongnan did not achieve his goal, how could he give up, and said in a loud voice: "It is precisely because your company urgently needs this plant that it should be brought to us for research, because once we successfully cultivate this plant, isn't it just enough to meet the urgent needs of your factory?" "
Long Ling'er shook her head and said, "No." Time, we're running out of time! The only remaining rosacea is simply not enough for the moment when you come up with your research! The only thing we can do now is to find someone who can offer us Winegrass before we run out of it! ”
Zhou Zongnan also knew that it was impossible for him to implement it, not to mention that they didn't know anything about Jiuxin Grass at all, even if he came up with the most basic number of Jiuxin Cao, it would take a constant time, let alone successfully cultivate it!
"But. As the general manager of the distillery, Longquan Liquor is your product, don't you even know the slightest thing about Jiuxin Grass? Zhou Zongnan asked puzzled.
Long Ling'er smiled and said, "Professor Zhou, obviously you don't know the situation of our company, let alone the birth process of Longquan Wine!" It is true that Longquan Liquor is a product of our company, but its birth has nothing to do with our company at all! I don't think Professor Zhou has any interest in tracing the roots of the series of changes in our company. So I won't say more, I just want you to know that I am also actively looking for the person who gave us the wine heart grass in the first place, and I promise that I will do my best to inform you if there is any news! ”
As she spoke, Long Ling'er glanced at Liu Ming, who was standing aside.
Liu Ming hurriedly persuaded Zhou Zongnan and said, "Grandpa Zhou, since our general manager has agreed to you. You can go back and wait with peace of mind! You've been staying here, and it's not convenient for our general manager to move, isn't it? "
So far, Zhou Zongnan can't think about it, so he can only sigh deeply, turn his head and walk out depressedly!
Long Ling'er wiped the sweat from her forehead a little tiredly, and snorted angrily: "Li Yong, you are hiding, I see how long you can hide?" "
"General Manager. You call me? Not long after Zhou Zongnan left, Li Li walked in expressionlessly.
After such a long time, the estrangement between the two has faded a lot. But it's still a little unnatural to be with each other.
But today, Long Ling'er's face was full of sincere smiles: "Li Li, I've wanted to talk to you for a long time, but I've always been ...... "
Long Ling'er carefully worded, for fear that if she didn't say a good word, she would stiffen things again.
Li Li smiled generously: "What is the general manager who also knows that he must take into account the feelings of others before speaking and doing things?" "
Long Ling'er knew that she was still jealous of the mistakes she had made that day, and she didn't take her ridicule to heart. Said slowly: "Li Li, I think we should not continue like this." I think the reason why you insisted on staying was mostly because of the guilt in your heart for Li Xiaogang. Are you still thinking that one day you will be able to return Longquan wine to Li Xiaogang to make up for the mistakes you made to Li Xiaogang that day? "
"Wrong? I don't feel like I've done anything wrong. It's the one you deserve to feel guilty about! Li Li said with a cold face.
Long Ling'er said unambiguously: "Yes, I am at fault. And my heart is also full of guilt, I have never hidden this, but I have found Li Xiaogang and have obtained his forgiveness, and what about you? "
"Me! …… How Li Li wanted to be able to say it as loudly as Long Ling'er, "Li Xiaogang has already forgiven me!" ”
But she can't because she doesn't have the courage of Long Ling'er, she would rather be alone and silently go back to make amends!
Seeing Li Li's gloomy and sad spirit, Long Ling'er walked over a little unbearably, gently hugged her shoulders, and said slowly: "I know, in fact, you love Li Xiaogang as much as I do!" ”
Long Ling'er's words upset Li Li's heart and tore off her disguise, Li Li was a little shaky, and her head was dizzy.
Long Ling'er didn't pay any attention to Li Li's face becoming more and more gray, and said to herself: "The reason why you treat Li Xiaogang like that is actually because the love you gave to Li Xiaogang is not reciprocated, right?" Because love turns into hate, in fact, I still love in my bones! ”
"Say no more, I don't want to listen to that! Shut up! Li Li shouted loudly with some excitement.
Long Ling'er grabbed her hand suddenly: "Li Li, I'm telling you this, you want you to understand that we are actually sympathetic!" Long Ling's words calmed down the excited Li Li and looked at her puzzled.
