What's wrong with being a salted fish?

Chapter 161 Are you not satisfied that my wife is me?

Luo Su was shocked in front of the screen: Oh no! Why is his brother still playing with his phone at this time? Doesn’t he have a nightlife?

It's a grain of millet: [Haha, brother, are you here? Where's Brother Lin? ]

Duan Yunqi: [Falling asleep]

Luo Su realized that it was not that there was no nightlife, but that the battle was over. Poor Brother Lin.

But what made Luo Su even more sad was that two minutes had already passed and he couldn't withdraw!

It's a grain of millet: [Brother, can you just pretend you didn't see it? ]

Duan Yunqi: [......]

Duan Yunqi: [What do you think? ]

It's a grain of millet: [I'm asleep, good night, brother! ]

......

The next day, when Qi Hengshu was perfecting his design in his new office, there was a sudden knock on his office door.

"Come in." Qi Hengshu said without even raising his head.

"Oh, are you busy?" Luo Su, who was dressed in a suit and tie, greeted him.

He was dressed completely differently from yesterday.

If Luo Su looked like a scoundrel who did not do his job yesterday, today he is a handsome and shrewd businessman.

Qi Hengshu nodded, without stopping his work, and invited him to come in and sit down.

"Forget about sitting down. I'm here just to tell you that I'll be away on business for a while. Remember to treat me to a meal when you come back." Luo Su smiled.

Hearing that Luo Su was going out, Qi Hengshu stopped what he was doing, then looked up at him. Eating was a small problem, but why was he going on a business trip at this time?

"Where are you going?" Qi Hengshu asked.

"You should be familiar with it, New Village in City C." Luo Su replied.

Qi Hengshu was indeed familiar with the place because that was where he accidentally discovered the new fabric, but why did Luo Su go there?

As if seeing Qi Hengshu's doubt, Luo Su nodded: "Yes, it's the reason you thought. Go buy some fabric for our great designer."

Qi Hengshu's cheeks felt a little hot when he said this.

Qi Hengshu embarrassedly fanned his face with his hands: "Don't say that to me, it's too embarrassing!"

Luo Su didn't think he was wrong. He raised his eyebrows and praised Qi Hengshu: "Don't be shy, be more confident. If it weren't for those two idiots suppressing you, you would have been famous a long time ago. There are many designers in our design department who want to meet you!"

The more he talked, the more ashamed Qi Hengshu felt. He lowered his head and raised his hands, crossing them: "Please, stop talking."

He is the kind of person who can't stand being praised by others. The more others praise him in person, the more ashamed he feels.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anymore." Luo Su raised his hands in surrender, then made a zipper gesture on his mouth to indicate that he would stop talking.

Qi Hengshu then raised his head and looked at him again: "How long will you be gone?"

"It may take more than a month." Luo Su said.

"so long?"

Luo Su nodded: "After all, we still need to build a factory there. Don't worry, I will send someone to deliver the fabrics. I will not delay your sample making."

Qi Hengshu was incredulous about what he said: "Building a factory? Are you serious?"

"Of course, because we are rich!" Luo Su flicked his bangs cockily while speaking.

Then Luo Su told Qi Hengshu that two days ago, after he finished talking about the new fabric, they contacted the village chief of Xinxiang Village overnight and discussed the matter with him.

Building a factory and a production line will not only boost the economic development of their village, but also solve the employment problems of many people in the village and reduce the mobility of their young and middle-aged population.

Duan also promised to provide additional subsidies to the new villages, and the villagers working in the factory will also be able to enjoy five insurances and one fund, two days off a week and other good welfare benefits.

The village chief first said that he would discuss it with the villagers, then gave them a positive response and asked when the contract could be signed.

"I went there this time to sign the contract and supervise the construction of the factory. Soon there will be a production line dedicated to producing the new fabrics you need. At that time, we also purchased the fabrics produced locally, and the quality was really good."

Luo Su said this to reassure Qi Hengshu. He was afraid that Qi Hengshu would feel that he had destroyed the villagers' original livelihood.

"That's really good." Qi Hengshu had a dazed expression. He really didn't expect that Duan would set up a special assembly line just for the new fabric he mentioned.

"After all, we all think that your new designs will be popular, so new fabrics must keep up."

"But why are you going?" Qi Hengshu looked at Luo Su. There should be many people in the Duan family who could take on this position, so why Luo Su? As far as he knew, Luo Su didn't seem to work in the design department.

At this point, Luo Su laughed twice with a blank expression, then said with a bitter face, "Maybe it's because I'm bold enough to want to call and disrupt my brother's nightlife."

Qi Hengshu: “…” Then you are indeed quite brave.

Qi Hengshu didn't know how to comfort him. After thinking hard, he tried to comfort Luo Su: "Why don't you let your brother call you to harass you? That way you two will be even."

Luo Su covered his chest, as if he had been stabbed by an arrow, and then he showed a bitter smile on his face: "Thank you for your good advice, but is it possible that I am a single dog?"

Qi Hengshu: “…” Sorry for disturbing you.

"But why do you work for Duan's? Your family should have your own company, right?" Qi Hengshu lowered his head and started drawing again.

He had heard Lin Zhuo mention Luo Su's identity before, the son of the Luo family. Obviously, his family was also very wealthy, so why did he still work for others? Anyway, if it were him, he would have been living a life of idleness and living a life of ease.

Luo Su was a little surprised that Qi Hengshu would ask about his family, but it was not something that he couldn't hide.

"Because I just like to follow my brother around." Luo Su said this with a bit of pride on his face, "My brother and I were from the same compound, and I just like to hang out with him."

Qi Hengshu glanced at him and said, "So your family treats you well?"

He thought that the reason why Luo Su was unwilling to go home to work was because of his disharmonious family relationships, such as an illegitimate child seizing the family property or something; he didn't expect that the other party simply had a good relationship with Duan Yunqi.

"Yes." Luo Su nodded.

When he was about to speak again, his brother's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Luo Su? Why haven't you left yet? The driver is waiting for you."

Qi Hengshu clearly saw Luo Su's body tremble, and then Luo Su slowly turned around and saw Duan Yunqi's cold face. Next to him stood Lin Zhuo with a smile on his face, greeting him.

!!!

It's broken! Run away!

Luo Su greeted them both calmly, pretending nothing had happened, then said goodbye to Qi Hengshu, saying they would talk again when he came back, and then ran away. In less than two seconds he disappeared without a trace.

Seeing him running so fast, Lin Zhuo was a little surprised: "Is there something dirty chasing him?"

Duan Yunqi snorted coldly: "He is afraid that his workload will double."

Luo Su left, and Duan Yunqi also had to go back to the office. He had a meeting in the afternoon, but he wanted to take Lin Zhuo with him, but was rejected by Lin Zhuo.

"I can't go to work for you." Lin Zhuo waved his hand, signaling him to leave quickly: "I'll stay here with Hengshu, you go up."

Duan Yunqi: “…” Okay, okay, my wife is gone.

After Duan Yunqi reluctantly left, Lin Zhuo lay down on the sofa in Qi Hengshu's office and asked with a hint of gossip: "What were you talking about with Xiao Su just now?"

"I asked him why he came to work for Duan's since his family had a company, and he said he just liked hanging out with Mr. Duan," said Qi Hengshu.

"This?" Lin Zhuo laughed, "There are other reasons. Brother Duan told me."

Qi Hengshu was a little curious: "What's the reason?"

"He is the eldest son in the family and should have inherited the family business and the company, but Luo Su got his father drunk and coaxed him into changing the name of the heir to his brother's."

Qi Hengshu was even more puzzled: "Why?"

Lin Zhuo rested his head on his arm and laughed even louder: "His original words were: Whoever wants to inherit this company can do it, I don't want to work so hard!"

"Is he too tired?" Qi Hengshu understood a little.

"Hmm." Lin Zhuo continued, "He said that his company has a lot of things to do and he is busy every day. He thinks that this blessing should be left to his brother."

But Qi Hengshu didn't see how relaxed Luo Su was here. He was busy all the time, and now he had to go on a business trip to supervise, so he wasn't idle either.

He thought so and asked so.

Lin Zhuo shook his head and said, "You think too much. He is usually very leisurely. He is more likely to slack off than you think. Unless there is something important, you may not be able to find him normally."

"What did Brother Duan say about him last time..." Lin Zhuo sat up from the sofa: "Oh, yes, he said he was like a retired old man who would grow flowers and feed fish every day when he had nothing to do."

Qi Hengshu:......

So are you guys being a bit indulgent towards him?

"But he never neglects serious matters, otherwise I would never let him help you pack your things." Lin Zhuo said again.

That's right. Qi Hengshu also nodded in agreement.

"How's the design going?" Lin Zhuo stood up and walked to his side.

"Almost done. These are basically finished products. The next step is just to wait for the fabrics to be made into samples." Qi Hengshu put down the pen in his hand.

The designs in front of him were similar to the ones he estimated to have fallen into Lan Yu's hands at that time, but the difference was that the ones he drew now were more detailed and the design was more outstanding.

"Okay, the design department will send the other fabrics over later, you can make samples first to see the shape." Lin Zhuo said, grabbing Qi Hengshu's sleeve: "Now, come with me on an outing."

"Where?"

"You'll find out later."

......

"Mr. Xu, what do you think?"

As the man spoke, he piled a human-shaped display stand in front of Xu Wenhao. A few pieces of cloth were tied on it, and the rough shape of the clothes could be roughly seen.

This is Xu's design department. After Xu Wenhao received the design draft yesterday, he hurried back and ordered several of the most capable designers in the company to work on his fashion show.

The designers actually had unfinished work on their hands, but Xu Wenhao was unreasonable, and he was the boss's son, so they dared not disobey him. They had to work overtime at night to catch up on the progress, and still had to listen to Xu Wenhao's orders during the day.

Xu Wenhao held the design sketch in his hand and compared it with the prototype on the humanoid stand. Then he frowned slightly and raised the sketch to the same height as the stand: "Isn't it a bit too dark?"

The colors used in Qi Hengshu's manuscripts are obviously brighter and look more textured, but the fabric of the booth is a bit too dark and does not have the spirit of Qi Heng's calligraphy and paintings.

The man dared to be angry but not to speak. In his heart, he looked down on Xu Wenhao for not being able to understand the design draft and still sitting here showing off. However, he could only smile and said, "It's a problem with the light. The light here is not good. How about I make it and let the model wear it and let's go to a brighter place to have a look?"

Since the professional said it was a problem with the light, Xu Wenhao didn't dwell on it and just asked him to go down and do it right away.

The man nodded and said yes, while pushing the booth away. The moment he turned his back to Xu Wenhao, he rolled his eyes fiercely.

What kind of person is this? He even came to their territory to make trouble! When will this day of playing house with the boss's son end?

After letting the man leave, Xu Wenhao strolled behind a female designer who was drawing.

He looked down, then snatched the design from the other person.

The other person was drawing the pattern for the hem of the skirt. Qi Hengshu's draft was too blurry and it was obviously a semi-finished product. However, Xu Wenhao couldn't get the finished product, so he could only ask Xu's designer to draw a new one for him based on the outline and general design.

The female designer has tried her best to restore the blurry pattern, but in Xu Wenhao's eyes it is not rubbish.

The appearance is ordinary and too rigid, the design is not outstanding enough, and even the color combination looks particularly old-fashioned.

Xu Wenhao shook the paper until it rustled. He was furious: "Is this how you designed it? Can you see it for yourself? Redraw it for me!"

After saying that, he tore the paper into pieces and threw them on the ground, not forgetting to step on it a few times before leaving.

When he suddenly snatched the design drawings away, the female designer didn't dare to say anything. She could only sit in her seat and look at him at a loss. When he tore up the design drawings and yelled at her, she could only lower her head and quietly redden her eyes. Only after Xu Wenhao left did she dare to wipe away her tears.

The designers who usually had a good relationship with her quickly came over to comfort her.

"Don't listen to his nonsense, he doesn't understand shit!"

"That's right, if he didn't have a good father, would I be able to endure this?"

"If he doesn't like our design, he can just draw it himself! He's a top student who graduated from a prestigious university and returned from overseas, but he's never even touched a paintbrush before!"

"I think he just thinks we are easy to bully. If he pushes us too far, I won't do it!"

"That's right, how much money did he give us? I have to accompany him during the day and catch up with the work at night. I have nothing to do. How much do I earn every day?"

......

Xu Wenhao didn’t know how the designers were scolding him behind his back. At the moment, all he could think about was: I don’t believe that Xu’s designers are not as good as Qi Hengshu!

On the other side, Lin Zhuo and Qi Hengshu were sitting in the audience seats of the show.

This is the largest exhibition hall in the city. It is usually rented out to others for various exhibitions, and occasionally rented out as a fashion show venue; because it has a large enough venue and auditorium, but the organizers need to arrange the venue themselves.

At this moment, there were many people moving things in and out of the audience seats. They were decorating the venue according to the organizer's requirements.

"What are we doing here?" Qi Hengshu didn't understand why Lin Zhuo brought him on this field trip.

Lin Zhuo looked at the stage that had just taken shape and chuckled, "This is where Xu Wenhao's fashion show will be held, and this is also where we are going to defeat him."
