Chapter 460 She needs 1 ton of stain remover.
"What do you want to do?" Zhang Wen, who was crying like a cat, looked wary and took two steps back.
The pot-bellied man scrutinized Zhang Wen for a moment, then chuckled, "Zhang Wen, the only daughter of Zhang Ming, the cotton mill manager. Hello, let me introduce myself. I'm the manager of Jinling Garment Factory. Judging from your appearance, you must have just broken up with your boyfriend, hmm."
I bet it was Luo Ning who caused your emotional turmoil, right?
"You know Luo Ning?" Zhang Wen's wariness instantly lessened, and she unconsciously moved closer.
The man with the large belly nodded and smiled confidently, "I not only know Luo Ning, but I also know Xie Chang'an. I know a restaurant nearby. You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Let's eat and chat?"
Zhang Wen left with the pregnant man almost without hesitation.
In the clothing company's office building, Luo Ning pushed Xie Chang'an back to her office and casually closed the door.
"Xiao Ning, when are you going to the black market?" Xie Chang'an asked, pulling Luo Ning's hand and lowering his voice.
Luo Ning doesn't have that plan yet. She still has money on hand, and the clothing factory situation hasn't been sorted out yet, so she doesn't have the time.
Let's talk about it later!
"Then you must take me with you when you go!" Xie Chang'an demanded earnestly, his face showing an expression that said Luo Ning would not agree and would resolutely refuse.
"Okay, I'll take you with me!" Luo Ning nodded happily, feeling inexplicably looking forward to going to the black market.
The rice in the space won't be harvested for a while, and if you want to go to the black market, you can only sell meat or flour.
Xie Chang'an was overjoyed; he was incredibly excited just thinking about it.
"Xiao Ning, if there's anything I can do, please do it for me!"
"You mean you want me to be your secretary?" Luo Ning raised an eyebrow, suddenly remembering the saying, "When there's work to be done, a secretary will handle it; when there's no work..."
Oh dear, this is so dirty it's blinding! She needs a ton of stain remover!
"Is a secretary similar to an assistant?" Xie Chang'an asked curiously.
Luo Ning nodded ambiguously. Actually, she initially wanted to hire a male secretary, as she privately believed that men were relatively more capable at work.
Especially these days, girls are less enterprising than boys, and they generally hold onto their secure jobs rather than try to work in private companies.
In fact, there are very few men, so she admires the courage and boldness of all the young people who apply for jobs at the company and gives them the best treatment she can offer.
However, not wanting to make Xie Chang'an uncomfortable, he did not appoint a secretary, which resulted in a significant increase in his workload.
I'll still need to find someone I like later.
Female secretary!
"Alright!" Xie Chang'an couldn't wait to take over all of Qiangzi's work, and he accepted the secretary job without hesitation.
Luo Ning smiled and handed over some of the work to Xie Chang'an, explaining everything before taking his pulse.
Xie Chang'an is recovering very well; he would have recovered even better if he hadn't returned and was delayed on the train for those few days.
"Starting today, except when you go to the toilet, you must not stand for more than half an hour each day. Take it easy, young man!"
Luo Ning released Xie Chang'an and walked to his seat.
Xie Chang'an's lips twitched; his little wife was clever and mischievous.
Luo Ning had just sat down when there was a knock on the door. "Come in!"
Qiangzi walked in, glanced at Xie Chang'an, and unconsciously clenched his fist before walking to Luo Ning's desk. "Vice President Luo, Professor Jin from the provincial university wants to see you. He said he made an appointment with you in advance! He's waiting in the waiting room now!"
Luo Ning's eyes lit up, and she blurted out, "Please come in quickly!"
"Alright!" Qiangzi turned and left, his steps light as the wind.
A short while later, Qiangzi appeared with Professor Jin. Luo Ning stood up to greet him and extended her hand, "Professor Jin, it's been a long time!"
Before she left the village, she met the old professor at the First Floor Market when she went to buy groceries. He had asked her to buy him a hair ornament as soon as he saw her.
She was shocked. A university professor was getting into business? Was he some kind of monkey trying to fool her?
Who knew that Professor Jin swore to the light that he was now retired and did not want to be rehired.
I've caught up with the country's reform and opening-up policy and want to try a different life, maybe even make a name for myself.
He indicated that they could sign a contract, and he was serious!
Luo Ning was moved by him and agreed to cooperate in the future if the opportunity arose.
At that time, her hairdressing business had not yet been finalized, so the deal fell through. She was thinking of returning to work with him again, if she could come back.
If she couldn't come back, she told her father that she would sell the hair accessory to Professor Jin within three months at most.
However, Luo Ning did not let Professor Jin leave empty-handed; she immediately hired him as Xie Changle's tutor.
Professor Jin was a little disappointed; he wanted to be a Confucian businessman, not go back to his old profession.
But Luo Ning praised Xie Chang Le to the skies, and his curiosity was piqued, so he accepted the tutoring assignment.
Professor Jin quickly shook hands with Luo Ning and then let go, explaining with a smile.
"I heard you were back and was ready to set off to discuss cooperation with you, but something came up at home and I was delayed. I couldn't find you in the village, so I found out about you from your mother and came straight here without giving you any advance notice. I'm so sorry!"
"Not at all, you're too kind. I've been waiting for you for ages! Please have a seat!"
Luo Ning walked to the side and warmly invited Professor Jin, "Assistant Yang, please make a cup of tea!"
Qiangzi was stunned for a moment, then realized it was Assistant Yang, and hurriedly went out.
"Xiao Ning, who is this...?" Xie Chang'an, unwilling to be ignored, made sure to get noticed.
Professor Jin, who had just sat down, immediately glanced over. This young man was quite handsome!
Luo Ning's lips twitched. Xie Chang'an, can't you just behave yourself? "Professor Jin, this is Comrade Xie Chang'an, our company's consultant!"
"Xie Chang'an, that war hero? I know him! I've heard so much about him!"
Professor Jin nodded repeatedly. He had heard of Xie Chang'an before, but he never expected to see him in person today.
Xie Chang'an: "..."
"Advisor Xie, this is Professor Jin from the Economics Department of our provincial university!" Luo Ning introduced him with a smile, leaving Xie Chang'an speechless. She was very pleased.
Xie Chang'an held his breath, intending to settle accounts with Luo Ning later. "Professor Jin, hello, you two talk, I won't disturb you!"
"Good, good, good!" Professor Jin nodded with pleasure, having keenly noticed something.
Qiangzi brought in a cup of tea and then awkwardly left in front of Professor Jin.
Luo Ning secretly made a peace sign, respectfully inviting Professor Jin to have some tea.
Professor Jin sipped the tea for a while, his gaze fixed intently. "Excellent tea! I wonder which sacred mountain it comes from?"
Luo Ning smiled modestly, not daring to be too presumptuous in front of the real person.
"It's not some fairy mountain, it's just something that grows in my own garden."
Actually, there's nothing special about it. It's just that the area where I live has a history of tens of millions of years, so you can taste a pure, natural, earthy flavor in my drink.
My dad loves this, so I just improvised and cooked it. If Professor Jin doesn't mind, I'll have Assistant Yang bring you a pack later!
"That's great!" Professor Jin was overjoyed; this trip had been worthwhile.
"Luo Ning, I've come to talk to you about the hair accessory!" Jin Yuan took out a small notebook from his briefcase and casually flipped through it.
"I did some research, and now there are 32 small vendors and shops selling this hair accessory in Jiangbei, including those with fixed storefronts. The designs are all the same, and the production is very rough. Each one is now selling for one yuan at retail."
To be honest, I've seen your hair accessory. It's very well-made, but the design has been copied so many times. Selling it for one yuan is too unprofitable, and if I raise the price, it definitely won't sell. Now I'm a little worried!"
Luo Ning glanced at Professor Jin, but her focus was completely off the hair accessory.
