Chapter 518: To be beheaded
The van drove into the embassy area and stopped in the courtyard rented by Li Ziqin, which was the backyard of a tailor shop.
Of course, he was the only one this afternoon.
There are more clothes and fabrics in the courtyard, but the clothes in the van are all selected, Li Ziqin took more than a dozen clothes in one go, and asked Jing Yulan and Hao Lefeng to try them on.
There was a small fitting room in the carriage, Yang Rui only listened to the sound of Suo Suo inside, and a few seconds later, Hao Lefeng, who came to his senses, pushed Yang Rui and Li Ziqin out of the car, and closed the rear compartment door with a "pop".
Yang Rui couldn't help but smile bitterly: What is this.
Li Ziqin obviously expected it, smiled, took out a few albums from the driver's seat, handed them to Yang Rui, and said, "Take a look, if you like it, pick it out, and if you arrange a plane to send it, you can arrive in two days." β
"Fashion magazine?" Yang Rui saw the cover at a glance and said unconsciously: "It's very expensive." β
From the time he went, the most expensive clothes he wore were made to order in the embassy district, a set of more than 2,000 dollars, including wool socks and so on, a total of more than 17,000 dollars. Naturally, it is more expensive than domestic clothes, but it is not enough to see than fashion items from Paris, and even less than high-end tailoring from Paris.
When he was a graduate student, Yang Rui occasionally went to buy clothes, and from time to time he would see tens of thousands of yuan of clothes, in his thinking mode, this was actually the most expensive clothes.
If it is more expensive, this is out of Yang Rui's comfort zone.
Li Ziqin shrugged his shoulders and said, "Coca-Cola pays in full, what are you worried about." β
"When someone gives you something, what you want must be more valuable than the thing itself, right? β
"Maybe, but you don't want such a good thing, you look at this shirt, it fits your skin tone very well...... Oh, and if you like the classics, John Rob will never be wrong, their custom leather shoes are made first and then customized through the foot mold, and the leather surface is available in calfskin, ostrich and crocodile skin......" Li Ziqin said without saying.
Because of Yang Rui's gaze, he had already turned to the carriage.
Jing Yulan lifted her skirt and walked down from the carriage carefully, her thin high heels falling on the floor, but it made people feel that their calves exposed to the air were white and long.
The lilac dress slightly exposes the fragrant shoulders, and the color fades from top to bottom, but it shows a good figure even more.
However, what is more attractive is the thousands of styles hidden under her dignified and elegant appearance.
A slight smile makes people unconsciously raise their heads.
"Is it good-looking?" Jing Yulan only wore Western-style dresses twice when she was studying in the foreign language department, but she always looked generous and confident.
Of course, she is beautiful and has a good figure, and she can't help but feel unconfident.
"Beautiful, ...... Clothes that fit well, people are more beautiful. Yang Rui coughed vigorously twice.
Jing Yulan turned around with a smile, but turned around and said, "I'll try one more." β
The carriage door opened and closed, closed and opened, and after all, it was not just one thing to try.
Even Hao Lefeng has changed from cautiousness at the beginning to spirit.
I saw her change a piece of clothes, and she was one layer of spirit, and another layer of spirit when she changed a piece of clothing......
Li Ziqin's clothing from Europe is a street for foreign goods, a road for Japanese goods, and a highway for Hong Kong goods, and the Guangzhou goods are gone.
Hao Lefeng was crazy when he changed his clothes, and later, when he changed his clothes, he had to touch his clothes and say: "This foreign product is good, it's no wonder that it sells so expensive." β
Yang Rui smiled and said nothing, thousands of dollars of clothes, even with one percent of the material cost, is also more expensive than the domestic selling price, of course, there is a reason to sell expensive.
And every time, Li Ziqin never tires of saying: "If you like it, choose it, if you don't like it, pick it again." β
Yang Rui secretly admired that this so-called work of customizing the seams is really not something that ordinary people can do, just serving with a smile all the time is beyond the power of capable people.

Beijing Hotel.
Baldwin waited until ten o'clock and received a call from Li Ziqin, and his expression suddenly came to life.
He chose two outfits. Baldwin breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a smile: "You see, for young people, we must use the methods of young people, not blindly oppressive, let alone blindly use adult methods. No one doesn't like parties, American youth, French boys, and Chinese teenagers are no exception, they just don't say it. β
Baldwin gestured at his lips and smugly introduced the experience to Sherwood and Gibson.
He had reason to rejoice. This is his first decision after coming to China, and whether he succeeds or not is directly related to his prestige and, more importantly, to the success or failure of this trip.
The fire captain is not easy to do, the most difficult is the entry point, Baldwin felt that he had chosen the right entry point, and he was naturally in a good mood.
Gibson hesitated a little, and Sherwood patted his ass without hesitation, and said: "China's problem is very complicated, and the way you hit the key point is indeed a ...... that we didn't expect."
"You can't use the methods I use, it's not your problem. Before I came, I am afraid that the Chinese branch would not be able to use the embassy in China, so this is not your problem, but it shows that the investment in China is insufficient. Next, if we work together, we will prove that the decision of the headquarters is wrong, and that Puerto Rico is investing more than it in a country with more than 1 billion people and only one million dollars a year. Baldwin was not simply modest, but dismissed the responsibility of China in one sentence.
Sherwood, who was not afraid to make up for it afterwards and had no worries, was overjoyed and immediately sang a hymn to Baldwin: "If only there were more people like you at headquarters." β
Gibson also figured it out and said, "The Chinese branch will fully cooperate with ......"
Baldwin smiled: "After solving the problem here, we should also find a way to continue to expand the sales and production scale in China, what do you think should be the focus?"
"Production. The Chinese government likes to sell abroad, and it has strict control over domestic sales. β
In this way, the Chinese branch becomes a production plant. β
"If the amount of export sales increases, it will be easier for us to compete for a share of domestic sales. Gibson paused and said, "The Chinese government is short of foreign exchange right now, and if our factories can give them net foreign exchange income, they should be more aggressive and generous." β
"Perfect plan. Baldwin nodded in approval, then raised the whiskey in his hand and said, "Gentlemen, let's be fully prepared to settle this matter perfectly." β
Gibson and Sherwood were in high spirits and drank down a small half glass of whiskey.
Over the next few days, Baldwin traveled between the U.S. Embassy in China and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, mediating like a politician.
In addition, he frequently made overseas phone calls, hoping to find more support from China, and finally came out for a trip, but he was not willing to do something and go back.
On the weekend, Yang Rui and Jing Yulan took the Mercedes-Benz car provided by Jielikang Company and came to the embassy area.
The old Mercedes-Benz is wide and quite comfortable, and it would probably be more comfortable if there was no more Hao Lefeng around.
Super light bulb Hao Lefeng was unconscious, looking left and right, while chatting with his fiancΓ© Chai Chengjun in the passenger seat.
However, compared to Hao Lefeng's ease, her fiancΓ© is somewhat uncomfortable.
Hao Lefeng wore a beautiful dress from Paris, and her confidence was inflated, but her boyfriend did not have a dress to borrow for free, and a suit made to order in Shanghai, which was somewhat outdated on such an occasion.
Fortunately, Yang Rui had a good impression of him, and before getting out of the car, he reminded softly: "After entering, hand over the jacket and suit to the staff at the cloakroom, and enter with only a shirt, it is not a very formal banquet." β
The difference between shirts is not as big as that of suits, Chai Chengjun was amnesty, and laughed quietly: "I'm nervous, you guys are too good to wear." β
"Borrowed. Yang Rui said with a smile.
"It's great to be able to borrow it, just wear it for a while. Chai Chengjun's face was full of embarrassment.
Hao Lefeng felt a little embarrassed, and gently slapped Chai Chengjun in the front row: "It's people's ability to borrow it." β
"Of course, what you can borrow is the ability, and it is even more capable to come to this kind of occasion. Chai Chengjun's eyes widened, looking at the lights outside.
Under a row of Chinese-style red lanterns, Baldwin and the U.S. ambassador stood arm-bound to welcome guests from afar.
On the surface, he was gentle and elegant, but in fact, his eyes were looking at everything in front of him with great sharpness, waiting for Yang Rui to appear.
"It feels terrible to know you're going to be slashed. Baldwin muttered to himself in a gap.
