    Last time Mr. Wu's foreign trade order, Watson shipped it on time.

    The delivery had just been made the day before, and Song Yuran received a courier from the same city the next day, which contained two pieces of clothing and nothing else.

    Song Yuran was very inexplicable about the courier, and the phone number of the contact person on it was familiar, so he called.

    Once connected, heard a voice from the opposite side, and it was Mr. Wu's secretary from the inside.

    She changed the subject and said, "Secretary Chen, I have received the clothes you sent. This is... Do you want to make a sample?"

    "Yes, Mr. Wu is very satisfied with the last transaction. It's still the same as last time. You send me a quotation after the sample is finished. After Mr. Wu confirms, we will directly make a deposit."

    "Well, okay." Song Yuran didn't have much expectation in her heart, "Then how many pieces are you ordering this time?"

    "One type has 30,000 pieces, the other has 70,000 pieces, a total of 100,000 pieces."

    "!!!" Song Yuran sat up straight, his eyes staring like copper bells.

    Suppressing the desire to scream, he said calmly, "Okay, I'll ask the production department to make the samples as soon as possible."

    After finishing the phone call, Song Yuran opened her mouth and yelled silently 'Ah', then looked at the closed office door, and decided to send the samples to the sample room first.

    When came back, the door of the general manager's office had been opened, and natural light poured out from the wide open door, and the manager who was discussing business inside had also left.

    "Mr. Huo." She walked over and knocked on the door. In order not to reveal her mood too clearly, her whole face was tense.

    Huo Qingzhi raised his head from the magazine, looked at her for a while, and said, "Is there any happy event?"

    "..." Song Yuran's expression was broken for a second, she pulled the chair opposite the desk and sat down, "I didn't say anything, how do you know there is a happy event? What if it's something bad?"

    Huo Qingzhi said with a smile: "If something bad happened, you wouldn't have such an expression."

    "Then what expression do I have?"

    Afterwards, Huo Qingzhi put down the impurities in his hands, bent his elbows, put his palms on the side of his face, looked at the ceiling and frowned, and sighed long, with the word 'sorrow' written on his face.

    It can't be said that it is similar to Song Yuran's expression when he is upset, but it can only be said to be exactly the same.

    "!!" Song Yuran dissatisfied: "How could it be so exaggerated!"

    "It seems that you can tell it's you." Huo Qingzhi raised his eyebrows, "Tell me, what's the matter."

    "It's Mr. Wu introduced by Lei Hai some time ago. Didn't he place some odd orders with us?"

    Huo Qingzhi nodded and continued, "He placed an order again?"

    "Yes!" Song Yuran stretched out ten fingers, "This time it's 100,000 pieces! 100,000! How many single-employee uniforms do we have to make to accumulate 100,000 pieces!"

    "fine."

    Seeing that Huo Qingzhi didn't seem to respond, Song Yuran was very puzzled. This is already a good amount for foreign trade orders, "Aren't you happy with the extra money?"

    "You also said it was extra money." Huo Qingzhi sighed lightly, turned the impurities of the watch to one of the pages, and pushed it in front of her.

    Song Yuran took it and took a closer look. She had some impression of the face of the model above. It was Xiaohua, who was popular in the traffic of a TV series recently, and won the title of the nation's first love.

    She couldn't understand, so she asked, "What's the problem?"

    "She is Luden's brand ambassador."

    Maybe it was because Luden wanted to show his favor by presenting a booth at the clothing expo and was rejected. Recently, some of Luden’s new style elements are very similar to Jane Eyre, and some of the traffic that should have been outstanding has also been divided. I don’t know if this is a coincidence orThe deliberate behavior makes people feel like eating a fly.

    Recently, because of the popularity of the spokesperson, even the brand has also been bought.

    "Don't tell me, this spokesperson is quite dedicated." Song Yuran smiled cheerfully, "The clothes are all worn by Lu Deng, a walking advertisement."

    "The star effect is really good now." Huo Qingzhi said thoughtfully, "I'm thinking about whether we should find a spokesperson."

    Song Yuran said subconsciously: "Aren't the prices of spokespersons with a little reputation very expensive?"

    Huo Qingzhi nodded, and looked at the people in the magazine, "Her, I heard that Luden paid tens of millions for the endorsement fee, and it was only for a quarter."

    "?!" Song Yuran's eyes widened again, in disbelief: "You might as well ask me, I don't want tens of millions, just buy me a suite!"

    Huo Qingzhi couldn't help rolling his eyes: "You are so beautiful."

    "Oh no, I'm serious." Song Yuran said solemnly: "The company has just started to make a profit. It would be too risky to use the money earned to hire endorsements. Besides, where does the endorsement money come from? Isn't it from consumption?The fleece plucked from the body."

    "Look at Lu Deng, don't look at the annual income of more than a billion yuan, but the spokesperson, film and television, and the messy advertising expenses, it costs more than half of it. We can't give away the hard-earned money to others for nothing!"

    "He is a big group with deep pockets, but our company is still developing and immature. Hiring a spokesperson is a very risky thing. You are not sure if your spokesperson can suddenly become popular like Luden."

    "Also, Luden is a leading brand in the clothing industry. The most expensive clothes can be sold at the price of luxury goods. We can only buy a few hundred yuan a piece at most. Even if we hire a spokesperson, when will this price be back to tens of millions?endorsement fee."

    "Speaking of this..." Huo Qingzhi frowned, "I recently looked at the online and offline sales statistics, and found a problem. Our price positioning is a bit vague."

    "Huh?" Song Yuran tilted her head.

    "The newly launched wooden dog series has the highest sales volume among all styles, but its price is the lowest of our brand, and the sales volume of other styles is relatively flat. I wonder if the price should be set so low."

    "The relationship is reversed." Song Yuran said, "It's because the price is low and many people buy it. Of course, there is another reason. Simple T-shirts are versatile."

    "The current positioning of our brand is a bit embarrassing." She paused, "rich people will choose more expensive clothes to show their financial resources, while those with average economic conditions will think our clothes are expensive. So weThe audience is basically white-collar workers, but the aesthetics of white-collar workers changes every day; if you want to buy simple and elegant styles today, you want to buy sweet and ladylike styles tomorrow, and you may be recommended by people around you to buy clothes of other brands. After all, our prices are betweenThey don't seem to have much of an advantage."

    Huo Qingzhi thought for a while and said, "You mean, either raise the price and take the high-end route, or change the people-friendly route."

    Song Yuran smiled noncommittally, and replied: "Although expensive luxury goods are enviable, no more than 20 out of 100 people can buy them casually, and they are still unattainable in the eyes of most people."

    "Take Pintao as an example. Since it became popular, the most sold products are not cosmetics or clothing, but some very small and low-priced items that can set off the cost-effectiveness, such as towels, faucets, pots and pans.We ignore it every day, but we can’t live without it.”

    "Although they are very cheap, they can't hold up to a large amount, and the accumulation of less makes more."

    After hearing this, Huo Qingzhi fell into deep thought, and he could see that he was very conflicted. In the end, he waved his hand and chose to skip this topic: "I'll think about it again, and I'll talk about it later."

    "Did you see the notice in the company group? Let's go to team building tomorrow."

    "I must not forget this!" Speaking of going to play, Song Yuran became more energetic, "I checked, and there are many attractions on that island that can be checked in!"

    Huo Qingzhi's point was not to ask if she saw it, she raised her eyebrows, and asked the next question: "Did you buy the swimsuit?"

    "No." I just thought about going to play, but I was able to remember that I didn't prepare a swimsuit when I was asked."I forgot, it seems that I have to buy two pieces, and I have to buy a travel suit."

    "It just so happens that my previous swimsuit is out of date and I want to buy a new one." Boss Huo naturally sent out the invitation: "Let's go together after get off work."

    Song Yuran subconsciously wanted to agree, but when she thought about having an appointment after get off work, a word "yes" stuck in her throat, and she smiled sarcastically: "Well, I have something to do after get off work, I'm sorry..."

    Huo Qingzhi wanted to ask what was the matter, but felt that it was not good to ask too much, so he could only say: "Then I will ask Qiao to go."

    Song Yuran responded very readily, which made Mr. Huo a little unhappy.

    Song Yuran, who returned to her work station, had to check the time every few minutes. After the nth time, the minute hand finally passed the number 12. She grabbed her bag and headed out.

    Taking the first off-duty elevator, when walking out of the gate, he had to turn his head every three steps to make sure that Huo Qingzhi hadn't followed.

    There was a silver car parked outside the company. Song Yuran turned around to confirm again, and then quickly opened the passenger door and got in.

    The people in the car saw her movements, and said with a smile: "Why do you look like you are afraid of being caught for cheating? We are very pure, okay?"

    "I don't know." Song Yuran rubbed her nose and smiled bitterly, "Sister Yushu, let's go."

    I was afraid that if stayed for another second, would be seen by Huo Qingzhi who came out of get off work. Although it wasn't something that couldn't see anyone, after all... refused Mr. Huo's invitation to go shopping, so it's always right to be careful.

    It was a pity that she couldn't see Huo Qingzhi trying on a swimsuit.

    The car soon entered the main road. Shen Yushu glanced at the people in the rearview mirror and asked curiously, "Why do you suddenly want to buy a car?"

    Song Yuran originally planned to ask Zhao Anye to look at the car in the store, but he was worried that the two inexperienced chickens would be fooled by a meal, so he asked Shen Yushu for help, and the other party quickly agreed.

    She replied: "Well... just, I am too tired to squeeze the subway every day, even more tired than working overtime, so I want to buy a scooter."

    "What are the requirements?"

    Song Yuran thought for a while, and said, "If you want a car, the cheaper the price, the better. If it's less than 100,000 yuan, the scooter doesn't need to be too expensive. There's nothing else."

    Song Yu thought about the bonus that the company gave out last time, and decided to buy a car.

    There must be a car and a house.

    The morning rush hour subway is the reason on the one hand, on the other hand there are so many selfish desires to pick up Huo Qing and get off work, and the car has not been repaired yet, so when will you not show your hospitality at this time!

    After speaking, I was a little worried, and asked again: "Sister Yushu, is one hundred thousand enough to buy a car?"

    "Of course it's enough." Shen Yushu smiled, "There are many cars to choose from. You can buy a good-looking brand car for tens of thousands of yuan, which is enough for transportation. It's just that there may not be any ready-made cars, so I have to ask.Let me take you to the car dealership first."

    In terms of shopping, Shen Yushu was obviously more experienced than her, and soon drove to a large-scale car dealership. As soon as he entered the gate, he saw all kinds of luxury cars in the parking spaces.

    Shen Yushu introduced to her: "I bought the car at this car dealership. Although the price is the same as the official price, but there will be some gifts. The most important thing is that the ready-made car can be driven home on the same day. He also has second-hand cars here.Leave these."

    As soon as the two entered the store, a man who looked like a manager greeted him with a smile on his face and said, "Sister, are you here to buy a car?"

    Shen Yushu raised her chin, and said concisely: "Take my friend to see the car, and help us recommend a car with a price of less than 80,000, as long as the car is in stock."

    "Okay!" The manager raised his hand to greet a sales manager, "This is Xiao Zhang, let him introduce you in detail."

    After speaking, he loudly asked the front desk to prepare two refreshments and serve the two distinguished guests well. The service attitude immediately filled Song Yuran's favor.

    It's just that she didn't understand why Shen Yushu said she wanted a car worth 80,000 yuan.

    Until Shen Yushu found a space and said to her in a low voice: "If you say to buy a car within 100,000 yuan, he will definitely recommend a car worth more than 100,000 yuan."

    Sure enough, the price of the first car Xiao Zhang took them to see was in the early 100,000s.

    It's just that Song Yuran didn't like the lines of the body and rejected it.

    After looking at several existing cars in a row, they were not satisfied, Xiao Zhang invited them to the rest area for tea, and said with a helpless expression: "Sister, the models you two saw just now are the existing cars in our store.How many models are around 150,000, how about I show you?"

    Song Yuran took a sip of tea, and suddenly his eyes stopped on a special-colored car, which was in the direction he was coming from just now. From afar, he saw the sign next to the car saying 'surprise price 82888'.

    "Where's that car?" Song Yuran pointed to it and asked, "That matte blue car is nice, I like it."

    Xiao Zhang glanced at it and said, "That car is not an existing car. Someone has ordered it, sister. You can transfer it if you want to buy it, but you have to wait at least three or four days."

    When Song Yuran heard it, the company organized a team building trip for a few days tomorrow, wouldn't it be just right?

    She put down her glass and walked over to take a closer look at the car. The lines were very tough, and the sporty style looked more fashionable.The most important matte blue car body is not as deep as royal blue, but also different from light blue, which is very tasteful at first glance!

    I got in the car and tried the seat. The rear space is very spacious, and the co-pilot position is adjusted to the bottom, so can easily stretch legs.

    Almost getting out of the car, she decided to buy this car.

    I quickly paid the deposit and submitted the materials, and the rest was waiting for the team to pick up the car after returning.

    Coming out of the car dealership, Song Yuran had a bright smile on her face. She didn't expect that buying a car would be so smooth, and she thought she would have to visit a few more dealerships to make a decision.

    Seeing her like this, Shen Yushu teased: "Seeing you are so happy, you bought the car for dating, right?"

    Song Yuran almost choked on the saliva, coughed a few times, and denied it with a slightly red face.

    "If you say it's not, then it's not." Shen Yushu smiled, "Is there anything else I want to buy? I'll take you back?"

    Song Yuran thought for a while, and decided to seize this opportunity and make it right in one step, so she said, "Sister Yushu, I want to go to the mall to buy a bag, can you give me a reference?"

    "Okay. I happen to be shopping for swimsuits."

    "Swimsuit?"

    "You don't know yet, I will go to team building with you?"

    Song Yu was shocked, "I really don't know. But I know that I can bring my family." She didn't hear Huo Qingzhi's story, so she asked, "Did Yiqiao invite you?"

    "How should I put it..." Shen Yushu thought for a while, then said with a smile, "That's right."

    The two turned to the shopping mall, where all kinds of counters were available. Song Yuran wanted to buy a bag for Huo Qingzhi with the money left over from buying the car. Asking Shen Yushu for reference, it must be better than her own aesthetics.

    Standing in front of an entire wall of designer bags, Shen Yushu probably glanced at them. There were various styles of bags, and she couldn't make up her mind for a while, so she asked, "Do you buy bags for yourself? Or give them away?"

    "Send...send someone..."

    Shen Yushu glanced at her, the smallness in this person's heart had been exposed long ago, and he didn't ask who it was, but said: "You can describe her to me, and I will help you choose some suitable ones."

    "..." This stopped Song Yuran from asking, can you say two eyes, one nose and one mouth?

    Did not hear the answer, Shen Yushu asked: "Huh?"

    "Just..." Song Yuran scratched her cheek, "She is very beautiful, with long hair, long legs, and a good temperament. If it doesn't work, you can imagine her as Mr. Huo. Which one do you think is suitable for Mr. Huo?"

    This time it was Shen Yushu's turn to be silent, but after all, the words had already been spoken. Fortunately, she knew Huo Qingzhi's aesthetics very well. She picked up a bag next to her and said, "If you want to make it clear, she will like this one.But the person you want to send is too abstract, and I can't give you a reference for a while."

    Song Yuran took the bag and weighed it in his hand. As expected of a big brand, it feels very heavy in the hand, and the tag also said that the material is genuine leather.

    With a white bag, she imagined Huo Qingzhi carrying her a little bit. If it was matched with a white suit, it would be perfect.

    Song Yuran returned to his senses, wiped his nose unconsciously, and said, "Just buy this!"

    "This bag is about 20,000 yuan." Shen Yushu reminded, not because she thought she couldn't afford it, but to measure the cost-effectiveness of buying this bag as a gift for her.

    "To send such an expensive bag, are you chasing her?"

    "..." Song Yuran shrank his head, avoiding his eyes and said, "That's right..."

    "Buy!" Unexpectedly, Shen Yushu's reaction was more intense than hers, "If you chase someone, if you don't buy it now, it will be useless if you buy it later!"

    With Shen Yushu's moral support, Song Yuran simply swiped his card to pay the bill.

    Huo Qingzhi is right, money should be spent on meaningful things!

    The two came out of the counter, chatting and laughing, preparing to go upstairs to buy swimsuits.

    But just two steps away, saw Huo Qingzhi and Su Yiqiao coming out of a nearby shop.

    The moment he met Huo Qingzhi's gaze, Song Yuran's heart skipped a beat.

    Shen Yushu's teasing words suddenly sounded in her mind.

    Why do you look like you are afraid of being caught for cheating?
