A new week has arrived, the sun is shining outside, and the sky is clear, but Li Xiaohe's heart is covered with a layer of haze. This haze is completely because of this trip to the provincial capital, and completely because of the ill-fated insoles.

Last Friday, after leaving the company and contacting Zhong Wanying to meet without success, Li Xiaohe and the three took the train that night and returned to the county the next morning. Qin Mingsheng and Xiao Liu went home directly, and Li Xiaohe went to the township again.

In the past two days over the weekend, Li Xiaohe has been thinking about the insoles, but he has broken his head, and there is no good way to get results. He couldn't help but reflect on it, and he still thinks about it today, hoping to find a good way to do it in reflection.

At the beginning, I thought it was very good, most of the peasant women have the skill of making insoles, the production method is flexible, the time can be used flexibly, the production cost is very low, and the insoles can be used to supplement the family; If it is well managed, it can gradually develop into an industry, which can not only increase the income of the peasants, but also increase the tax source for the township.

The village's response to this initiative in the township was very timely, especially the women who were more active. I usually make insoles, that is, to give them to relatives and friends, at most mix a sentence of "thank you" or "good-looking". Now it can produce benefits, it is likely to earn more than 300 yuan a month, the key is that this is the use of scattered time, and it does not delay other work, of course the women welcome it, and it is still done.

Compared with the reversal of the basket, the insoles are much luckier, and the first batch of goods was sold in less than two months after production, and they were sold at a high price, which really made the cadres and the masses excited for a while. But in the end, it became a one-shot deal, and the two people who came were fake identities, and they were not from Caiyun Company at all. Although it is still unclear what the two are going to do, it is obvious that the Caiyun Company will not buy insoles, and the two will definitely not come.

And now the villagers should have pressed at least more than 5,000 pairs in their hands, and the number is still increasing by two or three thousand pairs every month. That's the hard work of women lighting lamps and strangling marks for dozens of days, always producing and not selling, but what can be done? Do you want to produce in the next step, whether to slow down the production speed, and how to tell the villagers? Is it good to find a new buyer, and is it fast to find it? One question after another came to mind, and it was really difficult to give an answer for a while.

"Tuk tuk", the door of the house sounded, and Qin Mingsheng came in.

Compared with himself, Qin Mingsheng looked even more haggard, his already deep eye sockets were blue, his cheeks and cheekbones were becoming more prominent, and his sideburns were much whiter. Li Xiaohe can understand the other party's feelings, Qin Mingsheng is in charge of industry and investment promotion, although basket weaving and insoles are initiated by themselves, but after all, they are in charge of the other party, and success is a political achievement, otherwise it is a failure. Judging from the current situation, can Qin Mingsheng not be in a hurry? How can you not be anxious?

"Sit down." Li Xiaohe put on a smiling face and gestured.

"Hey." Sighing, Qin Mingsheng sat down on the chair.

Li Xiaohe tried his best to speak as relaxed as possible: "Old Qin, what are you doing here?" A new week, a new beginning, you sigh early in the morning, this is Chengxin doesn't want me to be happy. Say, how? I don't believe there's a mountain of flaming that I can't get through. ”

Qin Mingsheng sighed and reported: "After I came back that day, I called her again, but she never answered. I picked it up once yesterday afternoon, and I said I was going to get on the plane, and I hung up after saying a few words. I finally got through this morning, and when I heard that we had left the provincial capital, she pretended to entertain me, and almost didn't disgust me to death. Without waiting for me to ask, she continued to round out the panic words, saying that the division manager had contacted the chairman, and the chairman appointed to come back on Wednesday, and basically agreed to hold a meeting on Friday to study, and also said that the results could be produced at this meeting. ”

"It's like she's been saying this for the first time, so what will she give on Friday? Why did she affirm it again this time? What the hell are you going to do? Li Xiaohe questioned.

Qin Mingsheng shook his head helplessly: "What results can be produced?" Could it be that Caiyun agrees to cooperate with us? It's just that she made up another reason, either saying that the company didn't agree, or saying that something was pushed, or simply not answering the phone. What the hell is it for? I think they are two big liars, first in the name of the foot Caiyun company to swagger, and with a high price, pay the full amount as bait, and then buy in large quantities at one time, owe a high amount of money, and then disappear immediately. When I found the Caiyun Company under my feet, I knew that I had been deceived, and it was too late by then. ”

"It's possible, but I don't think it's that simple. And if it's like you said, they should continue to ask for goods by now, otherwise they will have a lot of dreams at night, and their affairs will be easily revealed. Li Xiaohe put forward a different view.

"What could it be? So far, we are paying with one hand and delivering with the other, and we don't owe each other. At most, they entertained them, and they also took care of me and Xiao Liu. They're liars, they have to lie to us about something, right? Speaking of this, Qin Mingsheng sighed, "Hey, I went to investigate last time, but I was deceived by them, I am really ashamed." ”

In fact, Qin Mingsheng was far more ashamed of this, he was ashamed of his misunderstanding of Li Xiaohe. This time I went to the provincial capital, because Li Xiaohe bypassed Zhong Wanying, Qin Mingsheng also understood that the township chief did not trust him, and he was very emotional along the way. But it turns out that the township chief did the right thing, otherwise he would not have been able to enter the yard, or he would have seen the results of the pose again.

Li Xiaohe understood the other party's mood and knew that the other party was already very sad, and it was inconvenient to complain now, so he said very generously: "Actually, that investigation was also a mistake, we didn't take it into account, and you are not the only one." If it hadn't been just in time for the weekend, if it weren't for the presence of the manager surnamed Pang, maybe she wouldn't have been able to make that illusion. In fact, this time, I also found some doubts in the last expedition, and I went with questions. For example, this time I didn't find Zhong Wanying to lead me first, which was also the result of Lao Song's reminder, otherwise I wouldn't have thought of it. Including this insistence on following Manager Sun, in fact, I thought that I might be ridiculed by the other party, but in order to verify with the last time, I went hard. ”

"They all blame me. If we had figured things out last time, why would we let the township chief be ridiculed by Manager Sun, and we had a trip empty, and nothing was done. Qin Mingsheng continued to take responsibility.

"Okay, don't always be your mother-in-law's. You must be responsible for this matter, but I am the head of the township and an advocate of this matter, and the responsibility is no less than yours. Li Xiaohe looked very indifferent, "Besides, it's not that nothing has been done this time, at least I know that there is no Zhong Wanying in Caiyun under my feet." In addition, if you don't follow Manager Sun in, you may still be wondering whether what the girl said is true, and it is impossible to see the company's layout, so it can't be compared with the last time. ”

"Township chief, you are always so optimistic, but I don't have such a mind as you." Qin Mingsheng was not without flattery.

Li Xiaohe sighed: "Don't feel sorry for yourself, think of something happy." By the way, Manager Zhong talked to you on the phone today, did you say that you miss you, and you will stay if you drink too much? ”

Qin Mingsheng's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said, "I said it, but it was disgusting to listen to it." I knew it was a poisonous snake, but she pretended to be a fairy, and it was too uncomfortable. ”

Li Xiaohe smiled "hehe": "Then you can be Xu Xian." ”

"Hahaha......" Qin Mingsheng was also amused.

"That's right." Li Xiaohe smiled, "How's it going to contact the new business?" ”

Qin Mingsheng said: "As soon as I went to work today, I contacted several companies that I had intended to do before, and three of them were connected, and two of them were not connected. The three companies used to express their intentions, but as soon as I called today, they became reserved again, not talking about product quality, not about cooperation, but about finding faults. Say that the price is too high, the color is too dark, this is the reason for rushing to the door. ”

"Don't be discouraged, praise is the seller, it's not necessarily a bad thing." After relieving the other party's heart, Li Xiaohe asked again, "Has anyone asked you about this investigation?" What do you say? ”

Qin Mingsheng said: "Some people inquired, several village cadres called, and some people met to ask. I gave them Zhong Wanying's nonsense according to what we said, and left live words. I also specially instructed Xiao Liu to speak according to this caliber. ”

Li Xiaohe instructed: "Okay, let's talk like this, don't tell the truth now." If you don't say it, I won't say it, Xiao Liu will definitely not say it, that young man is very good, and his quality is quite high. ”

"Ding Woo Bang", the bell rings.

glanced at the caller ID, Li Xiaohe pressed the answer button.

A male voice immediately came from the mobile phone: "Lao Li, is it convenient to speak?" ”

Li Xiaohe said: "Old Song, is it about the insole?" It's just me and Township Chief Qin in the house, you can talk about it. ”

The other party's voice continued: "I'm still in the field, and after you told me about it, I entrusted my assistant to go out and find out." He just sent me a few pictures, I feel very similar to the pictures you gave me, and now I have sent them to your mailbox, you can take a good look. ”

"Okay, then I'll see right away." Hanging up the phone, Li Xiaohe immediately turned on the computer.

Momentarily, the computer monitor is still on standby.

Moving the mouse and clicking back and forth a few times, an email popped up, and Li Xiaohe immediately downloaded it to the computer.

With a little more finger, a picture popped out.

Seeing the picture, Li Xiaohe couldn't help but pause, and hurriedly greeted Qin Mingsheng: "Old Qin, come here, take a look." ”

Qin Mingsheng immediately gathered around the monitor: "Like, too similar." ”

After reading all four pictures, and comparing them with the pictures taken by myself, the patterns are almost identical, the only difference is that the names of a manufacturer appear in those four pictures.

"It's the same, it's exactly the same, it's a crash." Qin Mingsheng's brows furrowed.

"It's not a bumper, it's a mat." Li Xiaohe said slowly, "The insoles have been imitated. ”

"What should I do?" Qin Mingsheng said hurriedly.

"What should I do......" Li Xiaohe hesitated, "Let me think about it." ”
