Chapter 261: The grapes are ripe
Chapter 261: The grapes are ripe
The breeding base is already in mature operation, the factory is also in order, and everything is going on in an orderly manner.So I also relieved myself from the sight of everyone in the company and lived my own life.
When the tide is low, I often go to the beach with a bamboo basket on my back to pick up all kinds of sea creatures left on the beach. Most of these are edible, and it will be a good meal when I take them back and fry them a little. Eating, it makes me happy.
I also accidentally discovered a natural bay not far from the simple pier. This bay is in the shape of a gourd, with a small mouth and a big belly.
I guess it should be that when the villagers built this simple pier, they took away the sand here, so that there was very deep water.
When the tide is high, the sea water will bring in some sea fish and other sea creatures. When the tide ebbs, these fish and shrimp are left in the bay before the tide recedes to the sea.
Discovering this place made me feel like a treasure. This is simply a natural fishing ground, and there is no need to release the fish, and the tide will automatically bring in new fish and shrimps every day.
So I cut bamboo and tied it into a raft, and went to the town to buy fishing nets.Whenever the tide is low, I will paddle to the bay to catch fish with long stalks, and I will get different harvests almost every day, which undoubtedly brings me a trace of infinite joy when I am calm.
As the company's development gradually stabilized, and the news and media reporters stopped bothering me after that wave of climax, I almost really felt that I had found the blue land in my heart. I often looked at the sea and thought blankly, if I could continue like this, what should I do? how nice.
However, there will always be some unexpected things in life, some things happen without warning, and some people meet unexpectedly.
It was another afternoon, and I rowed a bamboo raft to catch fish in that bay as usual. The last few days happened to be the high tide period, and the sea water came and went quickly, and the fish and shrimp brought in were more than usual. Much bigger.
Blowing the cool sea breeze, I opened my clothes and wore a bamboo hat on the water like a fisherman for nearly two hours. I have harvested a lot in the net bag tied to the bamboo raft hanging in the water.
It wasn't until the sunset dyed the sea red that I went back to the boat with satisfaction.
I tied the bamboo raft to a stake on the bank, and went ashore with a bulging net bag in one hand and a fishing net in the other. I also caught several sea crabs, each of which was as big as a palm. To be honest, when I caught them, my heart made me happier than negotiating an order for the company.
Looking at the few crabs struggling in the net bag, I can't help but look forward to the dinner tonight.
When I got on the pier, I found a woman sitting on a rock on the pier. Her long golden hair was flying wildly under the blowing of the sea breeze. She was different from the white skin of the oriental people, which was delicate, smooth and flawless. The eyebrows add a touch of exotic charm.
As soon as my feet stepped on the embankment, she stood up immediately, took off the brown sunglasses on her face, and then I saw her pair of deep blue eyes, not lost by the ocean behind, deep and mysterious, after a long time watching It makes people feel dizzy.
She is tall and slender, wearing only a vest on her upper body, a pair of tight jeans on her lower body, and a long shirt casually tied around her waist, revealing a tight belly just right. The whole person gives people a wild and unrestrained beauty.
She walked towards me with a charming smile on her face.
I was stunned for a moment, this woman probably came here to wait for me.
Sure enough, she walked up to me and said in standard Mandarin, "You should be Mr. Wei from Xinsheng Food Co., Ltd."
I was a little surprised that her Mandarin was so good, and her words confirmed what I thought in my heart, but I really couldn't think of a time when I had an intersection with such a sexy foreign beauty.
"I am, hello, may I ask who you are?"
"Your employee is right, you are really a special person, it is really unforgettable!" She didn't answer my words, and the smile on her face was even brighter. "Hi, my name is Monika Ivanovich Ivanova, I am from Ukraine, I came to you because I want to talk to you about something!" She continued, stretching out her hand towards me .
I looked at my hands, which were whitened by the sea water, holding a net bag in one hand and a fishing net in the other, and the shoes were still hanging around my neck. When I saw her stretching out her hand, I could only smile at her helplessly and apologetically.
"I... Ms. Iwan, hello!" I said in embarrassment. I have almost forgotten her long list of names, and I only remember the word Iwan.
Seeing my embarrassed look, the beauty couldn't help laughing out loud.
"I also have a Chinese name, Jasmine!" She didn't feel the slightest embarrassment because I didn't shake hands with her, but her smile with Xi made me feel kind.
"Miss Jasmine, hello!" I said apologetically.
"I have been to your company, and your employees told me that I can find you here. They said that you are a very special person, as long as I see you, I can understand. It seems that they really didn't lie to me, you really It's very special! If they didn't tell me that, I wouldn't be able to associate you with the boss of a company!" She said and glanced at the shoes hanging around my neck, which made me feel embarrassed.
"Miss Jasmine, you said you wanted to discuss something with me, what is it?" I hurriedly changed the subject.
"Let's talk as we walk, do you want me to help you get things?" She said, looking at the net bag and fishing net in my hand.
"No, no, I can do it myself!" I hurriedly refused, I didn't want a woman I didn't know to be contaminated with fishy smell for me.
Seeing that I was too busy refusing, Jasmine smiled lightly and stopped insisting.So we walked back side by side under the setting sun and the sea breeze, and she began to talk to me about her reason for coming.
"I am a Ukrainian. I was an international student who came to China to study in the early years. After graduation, I have been staying in China to help my uncle with some trade matters. Not long ago, I went back to China and brought some food produced by your company. , as a gift to my relatives and friends. I didn’t expect my uncle to be very interested in your products, so he asked me to talk to you about the possibility of cooperation. The demand will be huge, and the profits that can be brought to both of us are also unimaginable!" She put her hands in her pockets and said as she walked coolly, just like her capable appearance, her intentions for coming were already revealed in a few words.
I couldn't help but feel moved. I didn't expect that he came to discuss business with me. Before, I never thought that my products could be exported abroad. Could this be another new opportunity?
When she came to me, she obviously had the sincerity of cooperation, but she said that the demand was huge, which made me hesitate.With the current scale of the company, the supply to the domestic market is slightly insufficient, and even if it wants to export, it may be more than enough.
So he said: "Miss Jasmine has already been to the factory, and she must already know the size of our company. To tell you the truth, now we are often in short supply when supplying the domestic market. Miss Jasmine's thoughts may be that we are not slack. .” I told the truth.
"Of course I know this, but you can definitely expand the factory and increase the production scale, so this problem can be completely solved!" Jasmine said disapprovingly, seeming quite puzzled by my attitude.
"The girl has already met me, and you can probably see that I don't have much ambition and don't want to do much business. Moreover, our company has only been established for less than a year, and funds and resources are limited. If we want to greatly expand the company To be honest, we don’t have the capability yet.”
"Is Mr. Wei rejecting me?" She was puzzled.
"It's okay to do business, but I'm a pragmatic person. I'm afraid I don't have the energy to cooperate with girls!"
Hearing my words, she bowed her head and pondered for a moment. She probably didn't expect that I would have such an attitude in front of such a great opportunity.But for a moment she showed a cheerful smile again.
"This matter can be discussed later. I need to ask my uncle for advice. Uncle likes your product very much. I think if I tell him about your situation, he will probably help you, but I can't help you with this matter. He is in charge. There is no rush for this matter, but we really want to cooperate with you, if uncle can help Mr. Wei with money, I hope Mr. Wei will not refuse us then!"
"Okay, let's talk about this later. If I can, I will naturally not refuse you." I took the opportunity to stop the topic.
I think she has understood what I mean, and what she said is probably a tactful statement. Even if she really likes our seafood products as she said, she will not like it to the extent that she will help us build a factory. Besides There are many similar products in our city, and my company is not the only one. No matter in terms of scale or strength, our company may not even be regarded as a mid-tier company. She can find other companies to cooperate with.
"I'm hungry, can you treat me to a meal?" Miss Jasmine looked at me and asked with a smile.
"Of course, it's just that the girl has seen it. We don't have any decent restaurants here. I'm afraid the girl will laugh at me." I apologized.
"I don't need to go anywhere. I see these fish and crabs in your hand are very good. I will go to your house and ask your wife to make these for me to eat. I just don't know if it will be a bit abrupt! Will it bother you?" To your family?" She said, staring at the net bag in my hand with her blue eyes, and then looked up at my face.
I smiled in astonishment, thinking that this Ukrainian girl is really unique. She asked to go to a stranger's house for dinner when they met for the first time. This is really different from the usual thinking of Chinese women.
But since all the girls said that, as a man, how dare I refuse, so I just nodded with a smile.
"It's nothing outrageous. I live alone and have no family. It's just that my cooking skills are so-so. I'm afraid it will make the girl laugh!"
Jasmine showed a slight look of astonishment. She probably didn't expect that at my age and with some career, I'm still single!
After returning from the beach, I opened the courtyard door and let Jasmine into the courtyard. Jasmine was surprised again when she saw that I lived in such a place.She may think that it is reasonable for me to live in a better place, but her surprise is fleeting, probably thinking of me as a fisherman, it seems not surprising to live in this kind of place, so she again Laughed.
But after she entered the courtyard, she was stunned again. She looked at all kinds of vegetables and fruits in the courtyard, her eyes were full of disbelief.She walked slowly into my yard, which looked like a vegetable garden, with the look of Alice entering a dream world.
She walked lightly to the grape arbor and looked around, looking at the bunches of ripe grapes hanging from the roof in amazement, and her surprise became even stronger.
At this time, the setting sun was just above the courtyard wall, and the gentle setting sun pierced through the dense grape seedlings and dappled on her beautiful face and body, which really looked like a dream.
"This! You planted it all?" Jasmine turned around and asked me in surprise and joy with her hands spread out.
I nodded and said yes.
"Mr. Wei, you are really amazing! This place is simply too beautiful, I like it so much!" She didn't hide her admiration for me, and I knew from her big blue eyes that what she said was true .
I smile!
"Since Miss Jasmine likes it, let's enjoy it and watch it. I'll make dinner! If the girl is hungry, there are many fruits and vegetables in this yard that you can eat, and the grapes are already ripe, so you can do what you want!"
Jasmine didn't seem to have heard my words, and looked around curiously with her infinitely joyful eyes.
I smiled to myself, and ignored her when she was addicted to it, and went to the well to tend the fish and crabs in the net bag.
