Chapter 476: Don't be wronged
No one would have thought that Gu Qingning's parents would know foreign friends, and they seemed to have a good relationship?
This is when most parents are still going abroad for the first time and are quite unfamiliar with foreign countries, the foreign relations of Gu Qingning's parents are suddenly highlighted-
This made the parents, who also came to take their children to participate in the competition, to examine the Gu family and his wife a little more.
Lan Shu and Xiaobai don't care what mentality others use to see them.
At noon, at Mark's warm invitation, the two took their daughter to eat together at a nearby high-end restaurant.
As for the three Lan Dazhuang who came abroad with Lan Shu's family of three, Mark had seen Lan Dazhuang more than ten years ago and knew that Lan Dazhuang was Lan Shu's brother.
Originally, he also invited Lan Dazhuang and his wife to bring their son to dine together, but the two were embarrassed to go.
Other people's politeness is still sincerely invited, Lan Dazhuang can still tell it, my sister's friends are mainly about my sister and brother-in-law to get together, and I don't need to follow.
By Lan Shu's side, Xiao Qingning knew for the first time that his parents had foreign friends, and the child was very curious about this foreign uncle.
And learned that Lan Shu and Xiaobai came to Europe this time to bring their children to participate in the piano competition, Mark expressed great praise for Xiao Qingning!
"Xiao Qingning is amazing! is worthy of Lan Shu's daughter! ”
Mark's blind trust in Lan Shu's ability can almost be said to be blind!
In his eyes, Lan Shu is very powerful, especially in business, it can be said that he can do anything.
So Lan Shu's daughter should naturally be excellent.
When it came to doing business, Mark suddenly became energetic, "Lan Shu, I said a long time ago that with your ability, you should develop abroad and make a lot of money internationally." ”
Mark still didn't give up the idea of inviting Lan Shu to do business abroad.
He felt that a business genius like Lan Shu should go to a bigger stage to develop!
Hearing Mark's invitation, Lan Shu was actually not completely without ideas.
Two years ago, when her garment factory opened a branch in Shencheng, she planned to export jeans abroad, but because there was no external communication channel, the export clothing business was delayed.
This time when she came abroad, Lan Shu came to accompany her daughter to compete, but if she can have a business opportunity, of course it can be the icing on the cake.
So Lan Shu asked Mark if he had any connections in the clothing industry.
Mark is the small leader of the machine factory, and the sales of all kinds of machines in the factory have to go through from his side, so for some foreign companies and manufacturers that purchase sewing machines, Mark of course has contact information.
It's just that if you want to ask those people, you must use human favors.
Because it was Lan Shu who asked him for help, Mark was willing to use his relationship for Lan Shu.
He immediately agreed, "No problem, leave it to me, Lan Shu, I'll arrange it for you to meet the other party." ”
Lan Shu is very grateful for letting Mark help so much.
And her gratitude is more than just words.
After the business of clothing export is negotiated, she will prepare what she should say.
Everyone was quite happy at this meal at noon.
And Xiao Qingning is also the first time to see her mother can talk like this in the face of foreigners, confident and dazzling.
In this process, Xiao Qingning's eyes were attracted by her mother's every move, word and deed throughout the whole process.
She only knew that her mother had opened a company before, but now, Xiao Qingning found that her mother was far more powerful than she imagined!
This makes her even more important to take her mother as an example, as a mother's daughter, she hopes that she can become better and make her mother proud of herself!
After lunch, Lan Shu and Xiaobai separated from Mark and prepared to go back to the hotel to rest.
The piano competition starts tomorrow, and the children's competition will be held in the morning, so the children participating today must rest well so that they can show their best at that time.
Returning to the hotel, Lan Shu and Xiaobai were about to take their daughter back to the room, but in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, they met someone from the domestic competition party who took the children to compete abroad.
"Gu Qingning's parents, can you talk a few words?" The person who came was a woman in her thirties, slightly chubby, wearing glasses, who looked simple on the outside, but her eyes were shining.
As soon as she came, she spoke directly to Xiaobai, leaving Lan Shu aside the whole time.
Because in her opinion, the man is the head of the family, and the words of a man are more useful than the words of a woman.
Even though she is a woman herself, she feels that men are better than women in her heart.
Xiaobai recognized the identity of the other party, and asked casually about the intention of the person in front of him, "Something?" ”
The woman immediately said, "Hello Mr. Gu, I am the leading teacher of the youth group of our competition, I saw you communicating with foreigners at the door of the hotel before, I must be quite familiar with each other, right?" ”
"That's right, this is the first time we represent our country to participate abroad, and there is still plenty of time after the competition, so we can visit for a day."
"If we can let the children understand the situation abroad and broaden their horizons, it will be worth the trip, but because we are not familiar with the place, we hope that Mr. Gu can contact your friends abroad and find a guide for us."
In fact, such a request is nothing more than to help find a guide, even if Xiaobai doesn't ask Mark for help, just spend some money to hire someone.
So he nodded and agreed, "Yes." ”
Hearing his answer, the woman was very happy, so she proposed again, "Mr. Gu, we can't go to too expensive places because of limited funds this time......
"Then find a nearby park." Lan Shu took the conversation.
When traveling abroad, you need money everywhere, and it is impossible to get around without spending money because it is more expensive to get a car than in China, and tickets to various attractions are not cheap.
"But just walking around the neighborhood is such a waste of the opportunity for the children to go abroad! Mr. Gu, can you think of other ways? The middle-aged woman said, and her eyes fell on Gu Qingning's father again.
There was an obvious hint in his eyes and tone, and he almost said that they had no money, but they wanted to go to good attractions to play, so the parents of the children paid for it.
Come to think of it, she had inquired about their identities before she said these words.
knew that Gu Qingning's parents were rich people, and they were not bad at all.
But such a request sounded ridiculous to Lan Shu.
She and Xiaobai are willing to help find a guide, even if it costs money, it doesn't matter, but if they have to bear the travel expenses of everyone in the event group, it is impossible.
It's not that she's stingy, but why?
She didn't know anyone else on the team, so she had no reason to spend money on others.
The woman in front of her can tell that the funds are limited, and she has to ask them to find someone to take everyone out to play, and it is needless to say where the expenses in between come from.
They are not bad for money, but they can't be wronged.
