Chapter 14: The Transformed and the Unchanging
Mu Yuchen's figure was in Su Qingxi's bright and bright eyes, and was quietly smeared with a layer of brilliant brilliance, and an inexplicable tranquility surrounded the two of them, as if the world world was still cut off by something nameless at this moment, and outside the terrace where they were standing, the invisible curtain seemed to be faintly opening.
Su Qingxi could clearly see her reflected figure in Mu Yuchen's eyes, she had heard a lot, far more moving and generous words than Mu Yuchen's words at this moment, but in the end, time proved that the lack of promises to pay was all a fantasy on paper.
However, in the face of the pupils that reflected her figure, clear and pure, almost spotless, shining with inexplicable idealized brilliance, Su Qingxi first felt a kind of invisible spiritual power that penetrated into the depths of people's hearts, and then shook like an infection, and the invisible spiritual power of her own will.
"How do I know about it! What you say is true or false! Su Qingxi, who opened her mouth, never imagined that she would ask such a question one day, which seemed to be equivalent to a stupid question like a default, and she said in her eyes, which was rippling with waves, in her eyes, the brilliance flickered but she was extremely tenacious and serious.
"I don't need you to trust me! We are all well aware that any verbal promise to surrender everything to morality and the human heart is a gamble on humanity in such an age! That's not the way smart people do it! Mu Yuchen looked at Su Qingxi with a smile, and her face seemed to be a little stinky at the moment. In fact! If it weren't for your distrust! None of this conversation will exist! ”
"Maybe it's been a long time since there was no one! Such wanton behavior in front of you! Occupy the so-called dominant position! But I want to say! We're driving the future! And I believe that this future will be more brilliant in your hands than anyone else! So all you need to do. Just do what you want and tell me what else you need! ”
"Keep your eyes open! Our business will grow rapidly! Mu Yuchen, whose expression was full of seriousness, changed his tone to be as flat as ever, and continued with a little excitement: "When the time comes!" Facts speak louder than words! Will make you believe me! But remember! Don't lose yourself on the way! ”
"So happy to work together!" Su Qingxi raised the delicate crystal teacup in front of her, and said to Mu Yuchen with a slightly cramped look in her eyes.
"Oh! I almost forgot! The second batch of shale gas extraction equipment was shipped from Panama a week ago! It will arrive at the port off the coast of the magic capital in about two days tomorrow! This time I prepare equipment for fifteen to twenty wells! So the next time! You're going to be busy! Turning his gaze to Mu Yuchen, who was in front of him with the empty cup, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and then said mischievously: "Then, we have a happy cooperation!" ”
The cooperation between Mu Yuchen and Su Qingxi is the same as always, the former provides mining equipment and various technical instructors. The latter, on the other hand, provides a variety of access qualifications and permits for government policy directions. and a series of other links such as construction, daily maintenance, production and sales of the entire project, and then the distribution of equity ratio shall be negotiated by both parties.
In short, Mu Yuchen's work seems to be high-end, atmospheric, and high-end, and occupies the high-end in the field of technology. Suppliers of the vast majority of core components. But in reality, very little labor and effort is required. And Su Qingxi, who seems to be relatively simple. However, it takes time and energy to coordinate the relationship and distribute various benefits to the collaborators, which is completely coolie work!
"Arrive in Hong Kong as soon as tomorrow!? The procedures for customs declaration ......! Damn it! You did it on purpose! The light and shadow in front of him seemed to suddenly turn black Su Qingxi. The tone of her voice was clearly revealed, so a little bit of gnashing of teeth, in Mu Yuchen's malicious gaze, she already understood that the other party was obviously doing it on purpose.
"This kind of business of unknown origin! How can you do it openly! We're professionals! The sneaky thing has to be done on the sly! And the last time I made a customs declaration! We are not also applying for customs clearance in the name of desalination plants and replacing core components! ”
"Those people at the customs are not experts in technical skills! As long as the titular structure is gone! It's not illegal! Passing the level is a matter of course! And according to the power of the mutual aid association in the magic capital! It's a little thing at all! That's where you come in! How can there be a reason to just pay dividends and not work! Isn't it!? ”
"Or else! Now I'm calling the freighter to go back! Feel relieved!! I have implemented a three-pack service here!! Return, exchange! The reputation is superb! And you didn't pay for the stuff either! The test mining equipment in front! It's like I'm giving it to you! Feel relieved! This little thing! According to our friendship! Still not! Mu Yuchen, who showed his bright teeth, said with a sly smile.
"Scoundrel!" Su Qingxi, who snorted softly in a nasal voice, looked at Mu Yuchen with disdain, and then measured her face and said.
"That's right! How did you deal with the technical materials I sent you!? The localization of some equipment must be as soon as possible! Anyway, the technical content of those spare parts is not high! Don't always try to keep it to yourself! Subcontract out to speed up the progress! On my side, I will also transfer all the tonnage of transportation to core components that cannot be manufactured in China! ”
"We must form a scale effect as soon as possible! Seize the opportunity of the entire market as much as possible! The exploration and construction of the pipeline must also start simultaneously! Speeding up the construction of the entire industrial chain is the way to maximize benefits! Otherwise, those hungry wolves could come up to our neck at any moment! ”
"There is also an acceleration of the conclusion of cooperation agreements with other units that can develop shale gas basins and exploitation rights! Anyway, you have plenty of money now! It's a great time for proliferation! Suppose you're short on cash! I can provide you with some hard currency and artifacts! You can take it and mortgage it to the bank! Anyway, there is a shortage of money! You can also run the funds! ”
"When necessary! You can make some concessions! Of course, these concessions must be made on the premise of safeguarding our interests! Most people are just waiting for now! After all, we've only mined a well! In the eyes of those philistines! There are too many luck factors besides technical skills! ”
"Exactly! We need time too! Connect with allies to grow stronger! Mu Yuchen, who strode closer to Su Qingxi's side, sniffed the fragrance of orchids in the air. Quite gloatingly, he said, "You're going to be very busy next!" So what's the other problem! Let's communicate directly online! Presumably a matter of security! You've tested it well! ”
"So the next stage of the goal! Do you think it's the best place there!? Under the guidance of Mu Yuchen's words, Su Qingxi, whose thinking was turning at a high speed, flashed a little pearl in her bright eyes, and then she asked casually.
"Jianghan Basin!" Mu Yuchen, who showed a mysterious smile, didn't even hesitate to ask Su Qingxi's half-tentative question.
The sun, which had completely faded from the sky, released the brightest light before nightfall, and the dim light shrouded Su Qingxi and Mu Yuchen, the lakeside terrace where they were standing. I didn't expect Mu Yuchen's answer to be so categorical without the slightest hesitation of Su Qingxi. Subconsciously bowed his head slightly. Unconsciously revealing an unexpected face, hidden by the shadows in the environment and the angle of sight, the whole terrace seemed to be calm again.
The night, which completely fell in the silence of the two, had completely shrouded the entire Yuhang Lakeside. The shore is lit up with sporadic lights. Thoughtful Su Qingxi was in the evening breeze. subconsciously tightened the coat on his body. Mu Yuchen, who sat back in his seat, closed his eyes gently with a leisurely expression in Su Qingxi's silent but inquiring gaze. Even the lower back sank into the soft back of the chair in the relaxation of the muscles.
The word 'Jianghan' mentioned in Mu Yuchen's mouth instantly aroused Su Qingxi's countless associations. This big city, which was once the thoroughfare of nine provinces, is still gradually moving towards a haze, and it seems that it has completely faded away from the glorious color that it once had and should have in the land of righteousness!
Of course, the color of historical precipitation that will inevitably pass away has never been the focus of Su Qingxi's attention, after all, the eldest lady standing at the top of the pyramid does not need to rely on 'cheating' to get some tickets to support herself, what really aroused her association, attention and even surprise was the political fluctuations that will occur in the Jianghan region after the announcement of the establishment of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.
Su Qingxi is very sure that the person with the same surname as herself will be transferred to this area in the future, and the current news is very secretive, and even at a higher leadership level, it has not been made public! The result of this kind of benefit distribution and interest exchange is more of a tacit understanding between the real top levels!
According to the practice of the political system gradually formed by the Celestial Empire since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the specific candidates and positions still need at least, about half a year or so of brewing, discussion and activities, but basically the area and position of the post have been vaguely established! That is, the final confirmation of the first and second in command.
Su Qingxi, whose nerves were completely touched by Mu Yuchen, her smart brain was completely operational, she kept thinking about a certain word that might be expressed in Mu Yuchen's words, imagining the purpose of this mysterious guy, as for the channel through which the news was leaked, it was meaningless now! Of course, she would never have imagined! It was she who leaked the secret!
But there is no doubt that Mu Yuchen's words have caused Su Qingxi to think more deeply! She has even begun to silently estimate the positive or negative impacts, benefits and risks that the development of shale gas projects towards the Jianghan Basin may cause for that person!
After all, Su Qingxi is not a businessman in the pure sense! Be the spokesperson for the interests of the political group! What she needs to think about and measure! Forever political correctness at the forefront! And commercial interests are subordinate! The bloody fighting arena full of blood! There is never room for sloppiness and luck!
The silent time passed like flowing water, and soon the faint night condensed like ink with the precipitation. Su Qingxi in the dark focused on touching, like a shining pearl in the night, brilliant but mellow and flawless without dazzling, Mu Yuchen, who looked at the beauty and evolved his eyes and heart, also fell silent peacefully under such a beautiful scenery.
"It's getting dark! You two haven't finished talking yet!? Yu Yefei, who didn't know when Lu Dao returned, walked along the solid wood corridor near the river bank, stepping on the sound of rhythmic footsteps, and broke into the quiet atmosphere of the terrace. Then she keenly read something, and said half-seriously and half-jokingly: "You won't talk about it!" Not satisfied with the distribution ratio!? ”
"We haven't talked about the distribution ratio yet!" Su Qingxi, who quietly came back to her senses, showed a little blush on her face that was shrouded in the night fog, which was difficult for ordinary people to distinguish, and she quickly completed her psychological self-adjustment, and said to Concubine Yu Ye, who was walking at a faster pace: "Actually! Maybe we don't need to discuss this at all! ”
"For you this word! I raise my hands and feet in agreement! His eyes were always focused on Su Qingxi, who was more and more set off by the night, and Mu Yuchen, who was only beautifying, applauded lightly and said: "It's too early to talk about the distribution of benefits!" At least, we'll have to figure it out first! Those people will become our friends in the future! And which ones will become our enemies! ”
"Alright! You can discuss these things slowly! As for now! Aren't you hungry!? "For hours I couldn't. Two people who came to the final agreement. The five fingers of her right hand were spread out to support her forehead, and Concubine Yu, who seemed to be a little dizzy, expressed her surprise with her actions, of course, if she was as smart as she was, she would naturally not ask questions here. So the girl sighed helplessly.
"Ugh! I thought you didn't care about dinner today! "I asked myself and offended the two in front of me. Mu Yuchen of the real lady. He said with all seriousness.
"You think we're you!" Su Qingxi and Concubine Yu Ye, who rolled their eyes together, were completely helpless at someone's shameless speech.
"Night Princess! Can you eat it when you cook? Mu Yuchen, who continued to speak in a joking tone, asked.
"How do you know the way!?" Concubine Yu Ye said in surprise.
"My nose is very sensitive!"
"It's just some kind of animal!" Su Qingxi said to Mu Yuchen when she saw the needle.
On the shore of Yuhang Lake under the cold moonlight, the faint mist is like fine white sand. The lake rises on the outside of the terrace. The inexplicable quiet taste like a Lingbo fairy quietly surrounded Su Qingxi, Concubine Yu Ye, and Mu Yuchen, and their atmosphere of chatting with each other in a joke suddenly became cordial and relaxed.
This dinner is not so delicious and exquisite, you can't expect a beauty like a 'poppy' and 'corn', blooming with seductive bright colors, and also possessing the skills of a star chef. However, under the laughter and laughter of the plain hand, this not so perfect dinner has outlined the relaxation and naturalness of the meal of friends in an invisible atmosphere.
There is never anything immutable in this world, or if you want what you cherish, the existence is unchanged as always, and you know the Tao forever, then you must continue to adapt to the situation, maintain it in the constant external changes, and the care that is so wrapped in your heart, the human heart is the only basis for eternal existence.
"So! It's time for me to say goodbye too! After such a simple meal, Mu Yuchen got up and said goodbye.
"It's so late! Why don't you stay and ......! Concubine Yu Ye, who has a much bigger personality than Su Qingxi, seemed to feel that something was wrong when she spoke, and turned her eyes to Su Qingxi on the side, signaling the other party to continue to express her words more clearly.
"This resort is one of the strongholds of the Mutual Aid Association in Yuhang!! If we usually have some activities! It's all going to be here! There won't be any problems! So stay tonight! Helplessly, he stared at Yu Yefei with a mischievous smile in his gaze, and then spoke clearly without the slightest hint of anything else, and persuaded Mu Yuchen.
"Yes! Oh, yes! Two days later, there will be another regular meeting! I can't usually call you! This time it's just right! Concubine Yu Ye, who finally couldn't hold back her expression and smiled, the implicit scrutiny in her eyes faded slightly, and then she said meaningfully: "Many people are waiting to know you!" ”
"I think a lot of people are waiting! Pounce on me and bite me twice! It was Mu Yuchen's turn to roll his eyes and say, "I'm not interested in men!" I'm not interested in a woman who is too purposeful! I'm not interested in being neither male nor female! Take care of the rest! ”
"I don't understand! What the hell are you thinking? Concubine Yu Ye, who was full of strange colors in her pupils, looked Mu Yuchen in front of her up and down, as if she wanted to see him through carefully and clearly from the inside out, and the clear taste of rejection and surrender in Mu Yuchen's tone made Concubine Yu Yechen sigh.
Mu Yuchen knew very well that Su Qingxi and Concubine Yu Ye, the two of them were just maybe taking the initiative or being forced to open up their social resources to the mutual aid association and other members of the society. And Mu Yuchen, who was not interested in this at this moment, clearly expressed his willingness to refuse, and at the same time, slightly released all the messages of intimacy and warning.
"See people's hearts over time! Isn't it! You two find someone to get me out of the city! Mu Yuchen's eyes burned in front of him, these two postures can be the choice of a generation, the beautiful and bewitching, the appearance and posture swept by, and then he said jokingly: "My people are already waiting outside the villa!" And I even had some gifts prepared! You're going to love it! ”
Quietly colliding in a tacit understanding, Su Qingxi and Concubine Yu Ye finally determined that Mu Yuchen was not just a simple politeness. Immediately after that, the two who were not staying took a step towards the outside of the villa with Mu Yuchen. (To be continued......)
