The sales volume of Ji Lingbai's team increased steadily at an astonishing rate, and soon attracted the attention of relevant people again.

After all, although Ji Lingbai said that they were framed in the previous incident, it still left a deep impression on the upper echelons, because there is no evidence for this kind of thing after all.

What's more, the growth of data this time is even more exaggerated than the last time, so more and more people pay attention to Ji Lingbai and their stores.

However, once again entering the store that they had been operating for several days, everyone noticed the difference.

Concise and elegant promotional graphics, novel plate design, and product introductions in Chinese and English...... Each one was telling them that this one was completely different from before.

More observant people were surprised to find that most of the products in this small store in the hot search column are actually available.

"I think I know why their sales are increasing so quickly. ”

The others didn't speak, because they also found out the reason for the increase in sales in this store.

Of course, Ji Lingbai doesn't know anything about these things. Because at the moment she is in Tang Guangyao's office.

"President, are you looking for me?" Ji Lingbai felt very strange, Tang Guangyao knew about his participation in the competition, and when he encountered something like that, he was even more busy, Tang Guangyao usually wouldn't look for himself.

Tang Guangyao nodded, "Come in, close the door." ”

Ji Lingbai walked into this familiar office as he commanded, "Is it because there is something?"

"It's not a very important thing. Didn't I tell you a little bit of experience last time? I went back and sorted out my experience from the first few competitions, so you can take it and take a look. As he spoke, he handed Ji Lingbai a document bag.

Ji Lingbai never thought that what he casually promised before, Tang Guangyao would actually take it seriously. Looking at the document bag in front of me, I suddenly didn't know whether to take it or not.

"What's the matter, look down on me. I think it's still a little useful, and I'm not happy how many people want me to guide. ”

Tang Guangyao's words had already come to this point, and Ji Lingbai was really embarrassed to refuse. "Then I'll accept it, and I'll invite you to dinner another day. ”

Tang Guangyao nodded, and suddenly seemed to remember something, "I don't think I need to change the day, today is very good, it just so happens that I am a little hungry now." ”

Ji Lingbai did not directly agree or refuse, but looked at Tang Guangyao with a calm look.

This sentence didn't look like Tang Guangyao would say it at all, and a trace of doubt surged in Ji Lingbai's heart again.

Tang Guangyao deserved to be the chairman, and quickly realized that his words just now were a little inappropriate, "If you have something to do today, then make an appointment another day, and I'll ask the others to go and eat together." ”

Ji Lingbai looked at Tang Guangyao's eyes, but he really didn't see anything, so he nodded, "Okay then, I'll call you next time I decide on the place." ”

"Well, I'll be looking forward to it. ”

Obviously, Tang Guangyao's words were normal, and he didn't seem to mean anything else, but Ji Lingbai just felt very awkward, so he frowned and left Tang Guangyao's office.

When Ji Lingbai was unhappy, the phone suddenly rang. Almost the moment he saw the caller ID, Ji Lingbai's face instantly looked a lot better.

"Hey, Zimo?"

"Ling Bai, what are you busy with?" Xi Zimo's voice was as warm as ever, instantly healing Ji Lingbai's previous unhappy mood.

"It's not a game yet......

Xi Zimo knew that Ji Lingbai had participated in the competition, but he didn't know how he was doing now.

"Is that going well?" is just a habit of asking one's own question.

Ji Lingbai smiled, "It's good, there's no problem." For Xi Zimo, Ji Lingbai never wanted him to know those bad things.

"That's good. Xi Zimo seemed to be talking to himself. "By the way, Ling Bai, guess where I am now?"

Ji Lingbai looked at the sky with some confusion, "Aren't you at home?"

"It's not. Xi Zimo shook his head in a foolish manner, although Ji Lingbai couldn't see it.

"That's on Mo Lao's side?"

"Not really. ”

"I can't guess, tell me. "In the face of Xi Zimo's occasional small games, most of the time Ji Lingbai will cooperate.

Xi Zimo laughed, "I knew you couldn't guess, okay, I'll tell you." ”

"Huh?"

"I, I just came out with my master from Elder Pu, the head of the S Provincial Painting Association. "I can't hide my excitement when I speak.

Because of Xi Zimo, Ji Lingbai still has a little understanding of the field of calligraphy and painting. Among them is the person who is called Pu Lao by Xi Zimo.

Park Lao is a native of S Province, and he was also a top student of Kyoto Art Institute back then, and he studied abroad, and later returned to China and held a personal exhibition, and then settled down in his hometown S Province.

But Mr. Pu's influence in the world of calligraphy and painting is still quite large, and Ji Lingbai didn't expect that Mr. Mo would actually take Xi Zimo, who was only fifteen years old, to meet Mr. Pu.

"How could Mo Lao take you to see Pu Lao?" Because the other party was Xi Zimo, Ji Lingbai asked directly.

Xi Zimo thought for a while, "The master said that it was because Mr. Pu saw the work I put in his shop, so he said that he wanted to meet me, and the master took me there." ”

This explanation also makes sense, Ji Lingbai nodded, "Then what do you think after meeting Elder Pu?"

Speaking of this, Xi Zimo became excited again. "Mr. Pu is very powerful, his strength is not the same as that of the master, anyway, I talked with him for an afternoon, and I gained a lot. ”

Ji Lingbai always knew that Xi Zimo was very talented in this field, but he didn't expect that he could talk to a person of this level.

"Did Mr. Park say anything?"

What do you say? Xi Zimo didn't understand what Ji Lingbai meant for a while. Park Lao talked a lot about himself, about his paintings, about the style of his paintings, and about the future development.

Listening to the reply that hadn't appeared on the phone for a long time, Ji Lingbai thought that his question was too much, "It doesn't matter if you don't have it, there will always be a chance in the future." ”

I still think too much about it, Xi Zimo is obviously only fifteen years old, and he is too anxious.

It was at this time that Xi Zimo understood the meaning of Ji Lingbai's previous question, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

"Ling Bai, what do you want? Mr. Pu said that if you have time in the future, you can often go to his place to sit, and he has a lot of famous works there, which you can enjoy together. ”

Hearing Xi Zimo's words, Ji Lingbai realized that he had misunderstood just now, and his "old face" turned red.

"That's good, but you have to be sensible when you go to someone else's house, you know?"

"I know it all, don't worry. ”

Ji Lingbai also knew that Xi Zimo was not a troublemaker, so he didn't give too much advice.

There was a brief silence on both sides of the phone, and in the end, it was Xi Zimo who said first: "Ling Bai, I miss you." ”

I don't know why, the moment I heard this, Ji Ling's white eyes turned red, "Me too." ”

Hearing that Ji Lingbai's voice was a little wrong, Xi Zimo also quickly changed the topic, "Do you know? I've painted a lot of your portraits now, and I'll show you when you come back." ”

In fact, Xi Zimo knew that Ji Lingbai was studying abroad, far away from her relatives and familiar environment in her hometown, and she often reminded her of her thoughts, which was really undeserved.

knew that Xi Zimo was changing the topic, but Ji Lingbai enjoyed his thoughtfulness very much, so he quickly responded.

"Okay, I hope you don't make me too ugly. ”

Xi Zimo was a little unconvinced: "How is it possible, Ling Bai is obviously so ugly." Even if the portrait doesn't look good, it must be that my skills are not at home. ”

Faced with such a "childish" Xi Zimo, Ji Lingbai really didn't know what to say.

"Zimo, how are you doing? Are you still adapting to life in high school?" Almost every once in a while, Ji Lingbai would ask this question, for fear that Xi Zimo would be bullied at school.

Xi Zimo's eyes flashed, "It's good, it's not the same as before." ”

I have to say that in some ways, Xi Zimo and Ji Lingbai are exactly the same, reporting good news but not bad news. It's just that in Xi Zimo's opinion, there is no need to tell Ji Lingbai about those things at all, it will only make the other party very distressed.

However, Xi Zimo didn't expect that it was his thoughts at the moment that would cause him a lot of "wonderful trouble" in the near future.

The two chatted casually for a while, until Ji Lingbai felt that it was a little late, so he hung up the phone with Xi Zimo and made an appointment to send a message after returning to the dormitory.

When Ji Lingbai arrived at the dormitory, Ding Caixia was still holding Ji Lingbai's notebook to read the data. Seeing that Ji Lingbai was back, he just nodded to Ji Lingbai and continued to be busy with the work at hand.

Ji Lingbai didn't say anything, just sat down in his seat, opened the information Tang Guangyao gave him, and began to read it.

Looking at it, Ji Lingbai's brows slowly wrinkled. Not because this information is bad, but because this information is too good.

I don't know what Tang Guangyao thinks, not only some of the ideas and designs of his previous participating teams, but even some information about other outstanding teams in the first session. put it together and gave it to Ji Lingbai.

If Ji Lingbai only thought Tang Guangyao was a little strange before, now it has undoubtedly aggravated this suspicion.

Ding Caixia, who was busy with her own affairs, happened to see Ji Lingbai's not very good expression, "What's wrong, Ji Lingbai?

Ji Lingbai glanced back at her and sorted out the information in his hand. "It's nothing, inform them, let's find a time tomorrow for a small meeting, I have something to talk about. ”

Regarding Ji Lingbai's decision, Ding Caixia must have completed it without a discount. Soon the time for tomorrow's "meeting" was agreed with everyone.
