Zhong Liyue and Ping Yuyao turned their heads at the same time - Zhao Ding slowly walked towards them surrounded by everyone. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The two hurriedly stood up and greeted each other.
"Zhao Ye!" Zhong Liyue bowed respectfully to the position on the side and asked, "Please take a seat!" ā
Zhao Ding was not polite, and sat down opposite Zhong Liyue, and his entourage immediately beckoned a new pot of tea to pour him, and then poured another cup for Zhong Liyue.
"Not bad!" Zhao Ding unabashedly praised Zhong Liyue: "You boss deserve to be magnificent!" Such a beautiful thing, I actually let my subordinates do it, and I am willing to sit here and drink tea! ā
Therefore, Zhao Ding believes that Zhong Liyue's background is very strong and cannot be underestimated. This kind of demeanor can only be trained by large families.
"Thank you Zhao Ye for the compliment! Today is a big day, knowing that Zhao Ye is coming, how dare you not behave well? Zhong Liyue said half-seriously and half-jokingly.
Zhao Ding raised his index finger and pointed at Zhong Liyue, and said with a smile: "You! It's always so easy and funny to talk about, and it's so pleasant that you can't blame it. ā
"Master Zhao, don't scare me!" Zhong Liyue pretended to be surprised and said: "If there is anything wrong with the juniors, please ask Zhao Ye to give me advice, as long as you don't point fingers, the juniors can accept it." If you don't say it, how will others know? You'll have to do it again next time, won't you? ā
Zhong Liyue spoke very tactfully, and after a few words, Zhao Ding had completely felt that he might be bypassed by her. So, he waved his hand, stopped going around the bend with her, and went straight to the point, "I see how many big ships are loaded, and the rest are small boats, I don't know what the boss of those small boats is going to use them for?" ā
"Well, it's a trade secret." Zhong Liyue said in embarrassment: "It's not very convenient to reveal it to outsiders, I hope Zhao Ye will forgive me!" ā
"I don't know your family's secrets, it doesn't matter, but however, the big ships you use to load the cargo are not enough, according to the carrying capacity signed on our notes, at least three large ships are needed." Zhao Ding's kind tone was full of majesty, and he said slowly: "What about the ship? I can't see the ship, so I can't just hand it over. ā
"How can it be said that it is casual? We are written in black and white, written clearly, the government has done notarization, who dares to breach the contract? Zhong Liyue made a pun on her words and played a word game with Zhao Ding: "With the carrying capacity signed on our notes, those boats are enough." ā
Zhao Ding thought that he had misheard, and after being stunned for a moment, he put away his smiling face, frowned and asked as if he were right, "You plan to use those small boats to load my goods?" ā
Zhong Liyue smiled and said disapprerovingly: "Even if I use the flying one, as long as I bring Zhao Ye's goods smoothly, isn't it?" ā
"With flying?" Zhao Ding was stunned, he had a feeling of being played.
"I'm just describing it, life is too short and you need a little sense of humor!" Zhong Liyue said lightly in a haha tone: "Zhao Ye is only responsible for delivering the goods, I am only responsible for transporting the goods, and there is no freight problem involved in the middle, what else is there to dispute?" ā
"Then what guarantee do you have that you won't run away with my goods?" Zhao Ding was deeply skeptical.
"Zhao Ye is really good at joking! Where is there no Zhao Ye's eyeliner along the way? The river is so wide, where can I drag Zhao Ye's goods to? Zhao Ye wouldn't be so unconfident in his arrangement, right? Besides, it's not cost-effective to take my character and reputation for this kind of goods! I'm still counting on my future ambitions in Huanjing! Zhong Liyue hooked the corners of her lips and said confidently.
Zhong Liyue always maintained a smile on her face, her tone was gentle and unhurried, calm and calm, and she had the momentum of a natural king. In contrast, Zhao Ding's bearing has fallen behind. However, he quickly reacted, and his face immediately returned to calm, but he still couldn't help but secretly regret in his heart that he was too anxious: the goods are still in his hands, what is there to fear? The big deal is not to give it to him, and find someone else. What a pity! I'm afraid it's too late. Boss Zhong smiled lightly, most likely because he had seen through his worries. Why is it that I haven't been a young man yet? Ay!
"It's a nice day!" Zhong Liyue looked up at the clear blue sky and said idly.
Zhao Ding secretly gritted his teeth, and couldn't help but feel jealous of Zhong Liyue in his heart. This kid is not easy to mess with!
"Zhao Ye hasn't been to the ship yet, has he?" Zhong Liyue asked suddenly.
Zhao Ding turned his body slightly outward, squinted at Zhong Liyue, and replied lukewarmly: "That little boat, you can see the head at a glance, do you still need to go up and see it?" ā
Zhong Liyue smiled indifferently, at first she was still a little apprehensive in her heart, afraid that Zhao Ding would refuse to fulfill the contract, but just now Zhao Ding showed anger when she learned that she was going to load the cargo in a small boat, so he invisibly revealed his concern for this cooperation.
Also, three months of free logistics, equivalent to a cooked duck has been delivered to the mouth, and it is about to fly, who can not be in a hurry? He made an outward gesture to indicate that he had realized that he had revealed what was in his heart, so he wanted to flee in order to hide his true thoughts. In fact, from the moment Zhao Ding was angry, it was already clear who won and who lost. Zhong Liyue won this beginning, and the next thing is a matter of course. There was one last step left before she could sit back and relax.
Zhao Ding was already a little embarrassed, Zhong Liyue was naturally willing to give him a step down, so he got up, made a 'please' gesture, and said: "The first time we cooperate, it is inevitable that we will be suspicious of each other because we don't understand, please Zhao Ye follow me to the boat to take a look." In this way, the next cooperation does not have to be so troublesome. ā
Zhao Dinghu looked at Zhong Liyue suspiciously, a little hesitant.
"Hey, Zhao Ye has seen so many storms, it can't be that he is afraid of a young man in the younger generation, right?" Zhong Liyue deliberately teased.
This sentence made Zhao Ding's face soften slightly, he stood up along the steps, and said heroically: "Boss Zhong is really good at laughing!" I'm a half-cut man in the ground, what's so terrible? Can't there be a man-eating tiger on board? Since you are trying your best to invite you, I can't save your face, let's go! ā
Zhong Liyue pursed her lips and smiled, glanced at Ping Yuyao, and then walked side by side with Zhao Ding to the shore mouth.
got on the big boat, Zhong Liyue led Zhao Ding to the side of the boat. Ping Yuyao had already arranged for someone to build the bridge, and the group crossed the narrow bridge and moved to the small boat next to it.
"This ship!" As soon as Zhao Ding stepped on the hull of the boat, he immediately felt its specialness, so he exclaimed in puzzlement.
"Zhao Ye, look!" Zhong Liyue stood at the bow of the boat, looked at the row of boats to the west, pointed to the chains on it and said, "This is called 'Iron Cable'." ā
Zhao Ding looked at the small boats tied together with iron chains, couldn't help frowning, and looked at Zhong Liyue in puzzlement.
"Sail!" Zhong Liyue glanced at Ping Yuyao and commanded.
Ping Yuyao nodded, waved his hand to the boatman, and made a gesture.
The boat slowly moved.
Zhao Ding stood firmly on the boat, watching the small boats connected into one, moving smoothly and quickly towards the middle of the river, and his heart couldn't help but be shocked.
"Does Zhao Ye feel that the speed is much faster, and the hull is much more stable?" Zhong Liyue's eyes were full of smiles and asked.
Zhao Ding was surprised to feel the different feeling brought by the boat, and had to admit that it had the advantage over the big ship. He asked in surprise, "Boss Zhong, what the hell is going on?" (To be continued.) )
