When he got close, he could hear the sound of the machine running. It was like knocking on peoples hearts. The white-haired old man skillfully controlled the shoes and the machine in his hands in perfect coordination. One look and you could tell that he was a veteran.

Not only were there frostbites and cracks on his big, dark hands, but there were also some thick calluses. This was a pair of hands that worked hard for the ma.s.ses.

Old Xue is busy. Hell fix my shoes later. My shoes are open again. The old lady was probably more active when she saw someone familiar, so she started to greet them from a few meters away.

Alright, you can put it there. I only have one left. Itll be done soon. Old master Xue took the time to raise his head and glance at it, then lowered his head and continued to work.

h.e.l.lo, uncle Xue. Yuan Zhou greeted him.

Young man, do you want to repair your shoes? Grandpa Xue finally stopped what he was doing when he heard Yuan Zhous voice. He raised his head and looked at Yuan Zhou with his eyes glistening.

Im here to accompany you, mother-in-law. Yuan Zhou shook his head.

When uncle Xue heard this, he replied with an Oh and continued to repair it.

I have a pair of running shoes that need to be put online. I dont know if you can make them here. Yuan Zhou thought for a few seconds and then said.

Let me take a look. I know that you young people like to save face, so Im sure youll make it unremarkable. I definitely wont be able to tell. Old master Xues tone revealed his confidence.

Then Ill have to trouble you, uncle Xue. Yuan Zhou said.

Its not troublesome for young people to waste their shoes, Old master Xue said.

On the topic, Grandpa Xue started to chat with Yuan Zhou while repairing his shoes. From time to time, he would burst into laughter. It was clear that he was quite talkative.

They s.h.i.+fted their attention to the Kong Liang tea house. They didnt know what it had to do with the famous Kong Liang hotpot.

In the teahouse, Zheng Jiawei and director Xue were having a business discussion. They were mainly divided into two tables.

At one table were Zheng Jiawei in a delicate dress and President Xue in a Chinese tunic suit. At the other table were his Secretary and others.

Then its settled. When the time comes for the auction at painting G.o.d Lodge, well need the help of chief Xue. Zheng Jiawei said.

No problem, Mr. Zheng, you can rest a.s.sured and leave it to us. Eaves Wus business is my business, and Im also one of the partic.i.p.ants. Director Xues adoration for Wu Hai was fully revealed.

Then lets sign the contract today. Zheng Jiawei took out the doc.u.ments from the brown folder and handed them to director Xue.

Secretary li, please show Mr. Zheng our contract. Director Xue called out to the young man at the small table.

Im here, President. Okay! Secretary li answered and took out two doc.u.ments from the briefcase on the table. Within a few steps, he came to Zheng Jiawei and handed the doc.u.ments to him with both hands.

Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+

After Zheng Jiawei took over the doc.u.ment, he carefully read through it and found no problem with it. Then, he handed the doc.u.ment to the lawyer sitting at the table next to him.

When signing such a contract, a lawyer must be present. Zheng Jiawei wouldnt think that he knew a little about the law and take charge of the contract. President Xue also brought the companys lawyer.

No problem, lets sign it. Zheng Jiawei said.

Im fine with it too. Director Xue said.

The collaboration this time was a win-win situation. On one hand, chief Xues company would provide publicity and logistics services, and on the other hand, chief Xue would be a partic.i.p.ant in the auction.

Mr. Zheng is eaves Wus best right-hand man. Hes really efficient. As a fan of Wu Hai, director Xue kept talking about Wu Hai.

It didnt take long for the two of them to sign the doc.u.ment. It was done in a few minutes. There were two copies of the doc.u.ment, and they exchanged one copy for each persons safekeeping. The two business deals were thus closed.

Zheng Jiawei took a look at his watch and found it was almost 11:00. If he went there now, he might be able to have a good lunch and go there with director Xue, which could fulfill his wish of meeting Wu Hai.

Just when Zheng Jiawei was about to speak, director Xue spoke first. With a height of 1.8 meters, he felt a little embarra.s.sed but still said,Mr. Zheng saw that youre wearing leather shoes, and the way you walk must be very tiring. Do you want to repair your shoes? if you want to repair them, I have a good recommendation. Their skills are quite good.

After the first sentence, the second sentence was very smooth. From the fluency of his words, it was not difficult to tell that this was not the first time that director Xue had done this.

Zheng Jiawei, who was known as the smooth and slick, was a little dumbfounded. Wasnt he just talking about business a moment ago? he was just thinking about lunch. How could he have jumped to repairing shoes? did he miss some key information?

Repair shoes?

Zheng Jiawei looked at director Xue hesitantly. If he remembered correctly, director Xues company was a cultural publicity company and was even involved in some cultural publis.h.i.+ng. It shouldnt have anything to do with shoes.

Its like this. My dad is old. He used to be in this line of work and he hasnt given up yet. Ive tried to persuade him many times, but old people cant be persuaded.

Director Xue sighed. After all, he was a boss. It wouldnt be good to tell others that his father was repairing shoes.

Theres nothing we can do even if we cant persuade him. The key is, how many people are there who need to repair shoes? He was unhappy that no one came to him to fix it, so I thought I should introduce him to some business. Director Xue said.

I see. Is there any particular way to repair shoes? can you repair anything? Zheng Jiawei asked.

Strictly speaking, this President Xue was really quite filial.

Anything is fine. Leather shoes, cloth shoes, sandals, st.i.tching, changing soles-my dads skills are superb. Theres absolutely no problem. Director Xue introduced them with great familiarity.

Whats the address? Ill go and take a look if I need to. Zheng Jiawei said thoughtfully.

Its next to No. 16 Jiayuan Road. Its a small shed. Its easy to find it there. Director Xue said immediately.

Jiayuan Road. Its very close to here and Taoxi road. Zheng Jiawei said.

Thats right, its very close. I guess the entire Chenghua District knows that my dad is fixing shoes, director Xue replied.

Zheng Jiawei nodded his head and kept it in mind.

Director Xue, do you have anything to do next? if you don t, we can have lunch together. Zheng Jiawei nodded and told him what he had thought.

No problem. Ill go visit my dad after dinner and buy him some food. Where are we going to eat? Director Xue asked.

Its the master chef Restaurant on Taoxi road. You should know it, chief Xue. Zheng Jiawei said.

Who in Chengdu doesnt know head chef Yuan from Taoxi road? He turned an ordinary Street that was about to be demolished into a tourist attraction. Hes quite impressive. And most importantly, director Xue said,head chef Yuan should be the only one who can be compared with eaves Wu in terms of artistic achievements.

The main reason why director Xue knew about Yuan Zhou was because of eaves Wu. Of course, due to the location of his workplace and other problems, director Xue had never been to master chef Restaurant.

Well, not only his artistic achievement, but also his craftsmans.h.i.+p is quite good. Little hai eats there every day. Zheng Jiawei said.

When the die-hard fan Wu heard this, he immediately got up and ordered his Secretary to bring the doc.u.ments back to the company. Then, CEO Xue said,Then lets not delay any further. Lets go.
