On Thursday night, a train left Siyuan Station and headed for the provincial capital. Li Xiaohe, Qin Mingsheng and Xiao Liu were on this train, and they were going to rush to the provincial capital to contact the Caiyun Company for the second time.

This trip to the provincial capital has both subjective and objective reasons. When Qin Mingsheng contacted Zhong Wanying before, Zhong Wanying said that the chairman of the company received and entertained too much, and the second special board of directors had not been opened, and she would actively follow up with the general manager. At the same time, Zhong Wanying also said that if the situation is normal, it can be decided in June, and it can be done as soon as early June, and then she will go back to Shuangsheng Township. When contacting the other party later, Zhong Wanying still said this.

The other party always said "soon" and "immediately", but it has been a month since the first batch of insole purchases, Li Xiaoxiang has no bottom in his heart, Qin Mingsheng has no bottom in his heart, and everyone has no bottom. In late May, Qin Mingsheng took Xiao Liu and went to the provincial capital for an inspection, and the news he brought back was very exciting and gratifying.

More than a week has passed since the inspection, and there is still no news about it, and the village cadres have begun to inquire non-stop. Li Xiaohe is even more unsteady, and Qin Mingsheng is also very anxious.

After entering June, Qin Mingsheng contacted Zhong Wanying twice, and her statement basically remained the same, but she also gave a closer message: the chairman will come back over the weekend, and it should be about the same next week.

The township wanted to confirm with the other party again, but the other party always shirked on the grounds that he was busy with work, and the township decided to send someone to the province again. Not only did he have no bottom in his heart, but also in order to prove himself, Qin Mingsheng asked the township chief to go to the provincial capital with him.

Knowing Qin Mingsheng's thoughts, and also feeling that it was safe to see it in person, Li Xiaohe agreed to visit the door together. Therefore, after receiving the leaders of the Lvye head office in June and March, it was convenient to embark on a trip to the provincial capital today. Due to the late purchase of tickets, the three of them did not buy sleeper tickets, so they had to spend more than eight hours in the hard seats.

From the moment he got on the train, Li Xiaohe had an inexplicable nervousness, and he couldn't tell why, but he was indeed nervous, and his heart was empty. Due to the night driving, the curtains on the windows are all closed, and a sense of depression is added to the carriage.

Turning their heads to look around, many people closed their eyes and leaned on the back of the seats, the whole carriage was full of "whirring" sound of sleeping, and some people even had saliva hanging on the corners of their mouths, showing that they were sleeping extremely sweetly. Although Li Xiaohe's eyelids are astringent, it is difficult to sleep, and the word "insoles" always appears in his mind.

This investigation, if nothing else, just wants to be accurate, otherwise if it drags on like this, it will be a head when it will end. Now Li Xiaohe is thinking, if the other party still can't give a definite answer, what should the township do? Do you want to wait, or do you want to do something else? In fact, it is not that the township has not looked for merchants, but the prices given by several companies are low, and the best quality products are not given 40 yuan, and most of them are not more than 35. Not only is the price a factor, but the key is that if the supply is given to the two families, the township is also worried that the supply will not be available, so they have waited again and again for the clouds.

The delay in the letter of Caiyun Company is indeed because the chairman is not there and the meeting is not held in time? Or is there something else to say? If there is anything else, is it to drive down the price or what? What could it be? It's all these questions over and over again, but even though I've thought about it for a long time, I haven't come to an accurate conclusion, but my head still hurts a little, probably this is trying to break my head.

In the daze, Li Xiaohe finally fell asleep, and it was also a matter of insoles in his sleep. He woke up a few times in between, and it was still early, and he fell asleep again and again.

……

At seven o'clock the next morning, the train stopped at Changxing Station, the provincial capital. Li Xiaohe and the three of them had already woken up in advance, packed up their bags, and then went out of the station with the flow of people and went to a noodle restaurant outside the station to eat a bowl of noodles each.

Coming out of the noodle shop, Qin Mingsheng took out his mobile phone.

Li Xiaohe turned his head and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Stopping the operation, Qin Mingsheng replied: "Call Manager Zhong and see what time she arrives at the unit, so that we don't have to go to the air." ”

"I said yesterday not to contact him yet." Li Xiaohe said.

Qin Mingsheng hesitated for a moment: "Township Chief, I thought you meant not to contact you yesterday." Their building is very strictly managed, not the people who work inside, or there is no person inside, the security guards will not let them go, Xiao Liu can also prove it. ”

"It's okay, I can find the person who received it, and I only found it yesterday." As he spoke, Li Xiaohe took out his mobile phone and dialed it out. As soon as the phone rang, he said directly, "Old Song, we are in the province, and we will go there in a while...... Between nine and half past nine...... Okay, then let's do it first, goodbye. ”

Ending the call, Li Xiaohe put away his mobile phone and said to Qin and Liu: "Go, go directly, I'll call the person who picks up there." ”

"Okay." Qin Mingsheng agreed, and a trace of unhappiness swelled in his heart: This is too untrusting of people, right? Is it usually pretended?

Li Xiaohe was not in the mood to guess Qin Mingsheng's thoughts, but came directly to the side of the road and stretched out his hand to stop the car.

Xiao Liu and Qin Mingsheng followed suit.

Not in the mood to browse the street scenery, Li Xiaohe's mind was full of insoles, and he was thinking about the next investigation. Qin Mingsheng was thinking about all the door-to-door inspections, and there was also a lot of unhappiness and melancholy, and even a lot of worry, of course, what he was worried about now was not this inspection. Comparatively speaking, Xiao Liu is much more relaxed, he doesn't need to make decisions, he doesn't have to worry about it, he just has to be the leader. You only need to serve the leader, accept the leader's instructions at any time, and do what the leader asks.

A taxi stopped on the side of the road, and Li Xiaohe got into the car and told them about their destination. The driver didn't ask too much, but started the car and drove forward.

As soon as he sat in the car, his mobile phone rang with a short "tick" sound, he took out his mobile phone and looked at it, Li Xiaohe put the mobile phone back in his bag.

When I came out of the station, I walked relatively smoothly, but after a while, there was a congestion ahead, and the more the congestion grew, the worse it became. It is the morning rush hour at work, traffic jams are normal, and no one has a temper. The driver has become accustomed to this jam mode, driving the car with a calm expression, not in a hurry or impatient. And Li Xiaohe and Qin Mingsheng were more anxious than the other, Qin Mingsheng was still like the road situation in front of him, and he was really panicked.

After being stuck in a jam for more than half an hour, the taxi drove out of the five-kilometer section and turned onto another street. It may be because of the street, or it may be that the morning rush hour is nearing the end, and the congestion on this street is much lighter, at least the cars are stop-and-go, not lying still for a long time.

Finally, the taxi stopped, and the driver said, "It's here." ”

After paying the fare, the three got out of the car.

"Township Chief, this is the building." Qin Mingsheng stretched out his hand and pointed to the right front.

Li Xiaohe turned his head to look, not far ahead, there was a high-rise building, about forty floors, and the total height should be more than 200 meters. Even though there are many high-rise buildings around, this building is still very conspicuous.

With an admiration in his heart, Li Xiaohe retracted his gaze and took the lead in running to the tall building, followed by Qin and Liu.

Come to the front, the tall building in front of you is even taller, and looking up at the roof, you need to tilt your neck. Standing in front of the building, it shows that the person is very small, but also has a sense of depression.

Seeing the three people stopped in front of the door, the security guard stepped forward and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"We'll wait for someone to get it." As he spoke, Li Xiaohe stepped aside. Looking at the time, a little after nine o'clock, I took out my mobile phone and dialed the number sent by text message when I first got in the car.

As soon as the mobile phone was connected, a male voice came from inside: "Mr. Li, is it here?" ”

Li Xiaohe immediately said politely: "Hello Mr. He, we just arrived outside the gate of the hospital. ”

"Wait a minute." At this point, there was no sound in the phone.

Putting away his mobile phone, Li Xiaohe looked into the courtyard and stared at the direction of the door of the building.

After about five or six minutes, a young man appeared on the steps of the building, glanced towards the doorway, and hurried towards the telescopic door. At the gate of the courtyard, the man said "company customer" to the security guard, and then came out of the side door and walked towards Li Xiaohe.

After greeting each other, Li Xiaohe and the three followed Mr. He into the courtyard and into the building.

The building not only looks magnificent on the outside, but the hall on the first floor is also very classy, and when he entered this space, Li Xiaohe couldn't help but look at his dress. Walking into the elevator, it can be seen from the number on the elevator panel that the entire building has a total of 42 floors.

Mr. Ho pressed the number button, and the elevator went up.

The elevator stopped on the 35th floor, and Li Xiaohe and the three of them went out with Mr. He, facing the direction of the elevator is a company's logo. This is a large company, well-known throughout the province, and Mr. He took the three of them directly into the company's deputy manager's office.

"Mr. Li, I am a friend of Lao Song, and he said that you need a copy of our company's information." As he spoke, Mr. He picked up a beautiful paper bag and handed it over, "This is a full set of materials, whether it is a paper version or a video file." ”

After receiving the information, Li Xiaohe said "thank you" repeatedly.

Without stopping for more, the three of them came out of the assistant manager's room and entered the elevator, where Mr. He swiped the elevator card for them and pressed the number "1".

The car door closed, and Qin Mingsheng quickly pressed the number "27".

After a short time, the elevator stopped on the twenty-seventh floor, and the three of them stepped out of the elevator.

On the wall directly opposite the elevator is a huge company logo, and below the logo is the words "Kurayoshi Ashishita Caiyun Technology Co., Ltd." In front of the signage wall is a beautifully shaped service desk, behind which sit two beautiful girls, both in uniform and overalls.

The two girls stood up, and the girl on the north side said politely, "Hello gentlemen, which department are you looking for, and is there an appointment?" ”

Qin Mingsheng took a step forward and replied: "Find Zhong Wanying, the deputy manager of the marketing department." ”

Blinking, the girl said, "Sir, can you say it again?" ”

Qin Mingsheng paused, slowed down his speech, and tried his best to say the standard: "We are looking for Zhong Wanying, the deputy manager of the marketing department, and Manager Zhong presides over the daily work of the marketing department." Did she go to work today? ”

The girl and her companion looked at each other, and their faces were puzzled.
