Chapter 441
Happy eyebrows curled up
I really caught up today, Liu Xinyu failed to get home from get off work on time.
Not long after Xiao Yang left, Secretary Yang hurried to Liu Xinyu's office with an English document: "Dr. Liu, this is the document I just received. The leader may need it in the evening. Please translate it."
After taking the information, Liu Xinyu took a rough look at it and breathed a sigh of relief.
This is an English fax. It's not a large amount. You should be able to get it done in an hour if you hurry up.
Liu Xinyu raised her hand and looked at her watch. It was already a quarter past five. It seemed that she would not be able to get off work on time today.
Zhang Hongliang left less than half an hour ago. It was impossible for him to return home so quickly. He had better work first.
Liu Xinyu quickly immersed herself in her work, first translating literally, and then refining it word for word.
After finally completing the translation of the fax, Liu Xinyu took some blank paper and prepared to copy it. She looked up out the window and found that it was already dark. Remembering her previous agreement with Zhang Hongliang, she quickly picked up the phone and called Zhang Hongliang.
The call was quickly connected, and Zhang Hongliang's gentle voice came from the other side: "Is it Xinyu? Are you still working overtime?"
There were other people working overtime in the building, so Liu Xinyu lowered her voice and said, "Yes, it will take about half an hour to get off work. If Boss Xiao comes, talk to him first to see if you can lower the price to less than 60,000.
"
"Okay, I'll talk to Mr. Xiao first. Don't worry, don't drive fast." Zhang Hongliang did not refuse and readily agreed to let him bargain with Xiao Zhengqing first. Before hanging up the phone, he specifically told Liu Xinyu to pay attention to driving safety.
It was almost half past eight when Liu Xinyu arrived at Nanjie Alley.
It was a little later than she expected. This was because the top leaders in the department were not sure whether there would be new faxes that needed to be translated, so they kept her for more than half an hour until they were sure that there were no other faxes that needed to be translated.
Then he let her go home.
"Have you had dinner?" Hearing the noise outside, Zhang Hongliang, who was chatting with Xiao Zhengqing, hurriedly came out to greet him, and asked with concern while reaching out to take the bag Liu Xinyu was carrying.
I must have had dinner by this time.
There are quite a few people working overtime in the department today, and most of them are leaders and their secretaries, so there is no way they will go hungry.
It's just that the food in the cafeteria was really not to Liu Xinyu's liking, so she just ate half a bowl of noodles and drank some noodle soup.
Although Liu Xinyu nodded, Zhang Hongliang guessed from her expression that she must not have eaten enough.
The chicken soup is still warm on the small stove in the kitchen.
As long as she puts a small handful of dried rice noodles that Yang Songlin brought from her hometown into the chicken soup and adds a few small green vegetables, which is Liu Xinyu's favorite, she can have a big bowl of it.
"Boss Xiao is still sitting in the room. After talking with him for a long time, he is only willing to go down by five thousand." Zhang Hongliang walked to the main room with Liu Xinyu and told Liu Xinyu and Xiao Zhengqing in a low voice the result of the bargaining.
When he was approaching the main room, he stopped and said, "You go in and talk to him first, and I'll go to the kitchen and get you a bowl of noodles."
Hearing that there was powder to eat, Liu Xinyu was already so happy that her eyebrows were curled up even though she hadn't even tasted it yet.
As he was about to go to the main room, he suddenly remembered that Liu Xinjian had not seen Liu Xinjian at this time, so he stopped again and turned to Zhang Hongliang and asked: "Has Xinjian not returned from Changchun Garden yet, or has he gone back to Beihu Hutong directly?"
Zhang Hongliang shook his head and said: "I haven't seen him or received a call from him today. He is probably still busy at Changchun Garden."
The business of Xiyangyang Restaurant is getting better and better day by day. The lobby and private rooms are often full of people, and there are customers coming in from outside. In addition to the fact that the restaurant seems a bit cramped, the labor force inside and outside is also obviously a bit stretched.
Liu Xinjian was kept in the restaurant by Chen Zhaodi to help him today.
Seeing that the restaurant was not big enough to accommodate more dining tables, could not do more business, and could not make any money, Chen Zhaodi was so anxious that she had asked Liu Xinjian to send a message to Liu Xinyu more than once, hoping to expand the restaurant's scope.
Business area.
It is actually not difficult to expand the business area of the restaurant. After all, the current size of Xinyu Children's Clothing Factory is not enough to fill the entire courtyard.
As long as the back room is freed up and slightly modified, it can be put into use. But now that there is a facade building on West Street, Liu Xinyu suppressed this idea for the time being.
West Street is not too far from Changchun Garden. Many of the diners at Xiyangyang Restaurant come from Mu Ming. If we can take over the facade building on West Street and open a more grand hotel, those more discerning diners will
I would definitely prefer to go to West Street to treat guests to dinner.
While the two were talking, Xiao Zhengqing, who was sitting alone in the main room, could no longer sit still. He came out of the main room and stood in front of the door looking at Liu Xinyu.
Being looked at by Xiao Zhengqing like this, even if the two people were not talking about anything private, it would be hard to ignore the guests anymore, so Liu Xinyu said to Zhang Hongliang: "Brother Hongliang, give me more green vegetables, the unit canteen still has only
Radish and Chinese cabbage.”
"Okay, you can chat with Boss Xiao first, we'll be back soon!" Zhang Hongliang waved to Liu Xinyu, turned around and entered the kitchen.
Liu Xinyu and Xiao Zhengqing also entered the main room, but as soon as they sat down, before they had time to speak, they heard Liu Xinjian's voice coming from outside: "Brother-in-law, is my sister here?"
Liu Xinyu raised her hand to touch her forehead and scolded Liu Xinjian in her mind. Worried that this boy would talk nonsense again, she quickly stood up and walked to the door of the hall, glared at Liu Xinjian and said: "I'm here, you just came back from the restaurant?
"
Liu Xinjian didn't know Liu Xinyu was here. He came directly from the restaurant and hadn't returned to Beihu Hutong yet.
Usually Liu Xinyu goes directly back to Beihu Hutong after get off work to draw her design draft. Unexpectedly, Liu Xinyu is in Nanjie Hutong today.
If he knew Liu Xinyu was here, he wouldn't have the guts to call Zhang Hongliang brother-in-law right now.
Although Zhang Hongliang and Liu Xinyu's wedding date has been set, and Zhang Hongliang is already confirmed to be brother-in-law, the money to change their relationship has not been obtained yet. It would be a loss to call him brother-in-law now, and he doesn't know if Liu Xinyu will be angry.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Hongliang did not respond, but summoned Liu Xinyu out, and received a fierce glare.
Liu Xinjian was stunned for a moment, then he rubbed his head and smiled, pretending that he had never called him "brother-in-law", and just followed Liu Xinyu's question and replied: "I just came back from the restaurant and wanted to come over and see if the car is there tomorrow morning."
Need to use the car."
Liu Xinyu nodded, pointed to the kitchen and said: "Brother Hong Liang is making noodles in the kitchen. If you want to eat it, you can go there in time!"
In fact, Liu Xinjian smelled the aroma of chicken soup when he entered the yard. Although he had dinner in a restaurant, he could still eat a full bowl of chicken soup powder.
After listening to Liu Xinyu's words, she turned around and went straight to the kitchen without saying a word.
"I'm really sorry. I happened to have some overtime work today and kept you waiting for a long time." Finally she could sit down quietly and talk to Xiao Zhengqing about the facade. Liu Xinyu first said sorry to Xiao Zhengqing.
