A soft-waisted educated youth has sex with a loyal dog and a rough guy in the 1960s

Chapter 1114 Call
Chen Xiangdong touched the back of his head frequently.

In the past, he had been through a lot in the alleys and he boasted that he had suffered a lot and that he had more knowledge and experience than most people.

But every time he came to communicate with Lu Miao, he always felt that he was at a disadvantage due to his lack of education.

What's the difference between knowledge and inexperience? It's like a witch meeting a witch.

Chen Xiangdong said carefully: "Since you are knowledgeable, I will listen to you. I will make all the arrangements as you say."

Lu Miao nodded and continued, "There may be relatively few records of cochineal in China at present. I will compile and compile a copy for you later... Don't feel disgusted just because it is extracted from insects. This is high-grade pigment powder."

Chen Xiangdong could only nod.

After moving the cactus to the greenhouse, the two washed their hands before continuing to the handicraft room.

The original liquid in the small porcelain box cooled and solidified, and now has become a light yellow paste.

Lu Miao held the small box and smelled it, then put two fingers together and rubbed it in circles on the surface of the ointment, spreading all the ointment on his wrists.

She put her wrist close to her nose and sniffed it gently. She didn't say anything, but handed the ointment box to Chen Xiangdong.

Chen Xiangdong clumsily copied what he had done, and in the end, he still said the same few words:
"I think it's good, very fragrant..."

As if he felt that just saying these two sentences was a bit perfunctory, Chen Xiangdong asked another question:
"What else can this be used for besides smelling good?"

Lu Miao handed him the lid and motioned for him to open it and screw it on:

"Balm is solid perfume. In addition to adding fragrance, it has many uses depending on the materials used."

Lu Miao raised his chin towards the small box in his hand and said:

"The material I used for the experiment is simple, but it is still quite moisturizing. If your hands are very chapped, you can also use it as a hand oil."

Chen Xiangdong nodded and asked:
"Do you want to find someone to try this out too?"

"Correct."

Lu Miao curved his lips and eyes, and explained warmly:

"If we sell it to the public later, we will have to find someone to customize the outer packaging in advance. The lipstick tubes I asked you to find last time are not suitable."

“Is the quality bad?”

"The quality is good, but not up to par. Clothes make the man, saddles make the horse. If you want to sell something at a high price, it's not enough to just ensure the quality. From a business perspective, the 'outerwear' is also a plus point."

Chen Xiangdong didn't understand at first, but he understood as soon as Lu Miao explained it.

He nodded, and worked with Lu Miao to seal the lids of several porcelain boxes and put them into the bag.

Just thinking of one thing, he said:

"Sister-in-law, I forgot to tell you last time. I heard a message at the cultural center that a retired master craftsman had stopped working at home. At that time, I was thinking that if I could invite this master to come out of retirement, I could invite him to come over and teach him a few apprentices how to make his craft..."

Chen Xiangdong suddenly mentioned this matter now. In fact, he just got the news in the past few days that the master had this intention.

After listening to his plan, Lu Miao nodded in approval:
"This is a great idea. I had plans to do this before, but I was always busy and couldn't find the time to realize it. Now that you've made contact with someone, just go ahead and do it!"

Thinking about it, Lu Miao said again:
"It's not easy for the elderly. This skill is also a legacy. When the time comes, you should pay them a higher salary. Don't treat them unfairly."

Chen Xiangdong nodded in response:
"it is good."

After talking about all the big and small things, the long table in the craft room was also cleaned up.

Lu Miao handed the bag of lipstick and perfume to Chen Xiangdong, and said that she would go upstairs to change clothes and then go to the factory yard with him.

After he finished speaking, before he stepped out of the door frame of the craft room, Tang Mei's voice came from outside:

"Xiaobao? Xiaobao, there's a call from your office, come and answer it!"

"Coming." Lu Miao responded and gave Chen Xiangdong a look.

Chen Xiangdong nodded in understanding and let her go first.

Lu Miao went to the main hall.

It was a call from Yu Hong from the agency.

It was said that Director Wu of the cotton mill got the news from somewhere and came to the British News Agency, insisting on meeting her no matter what.

Yu Hong said that it would be useless if she was not around, and no one could be driven away.

There was really no other choice, so Yu Hong called her.

After listening to this, Lu Miao pondered for a moment and said:

"Go and tell him that I'm not here today and ask him to come back two days later. If he still doesn't believe me and refuses to leave, just go about your business and ignore him."

"This is."

After telling Yu Hong what to do, Lu Miao hung up the phone.

Just as he put the receiver back down, the phone rang again. Lu Miao turned around to answer it:

"Hello, hello...ah, Minister Zhan..."

Just after hanging up the phone with Yu Hong, Minister Zhan called.

Lu Miao was looking at his watch while listening to the phone.

It was getting late and if I went out, I would probably not be able to stay for long before coming back.

She thought about it and turned her head to look at the two people waiting at the side of the coffee table.

Just as Chen Xiangdong gave him an inquiring look, Lu Miao shook his head slightly and turned his face towards the door.

Chen Xiangdong understood and nudged Liu Xiaozhu beside him, and they both stood up:
"Aunt, let sister-in-law take care of herself first. We will go back today. If there is anything else, just ask sister-in-law to call me."

"Oh, I haven't even had two sips of tea! Are you leaving now? Don't be in a hurry to leave. Is Sui Sui in your yard these days? There are a few strawberries growing in the shed behind. I'll pick some and you can bring them back to the child."

"Lin Xian sent the child back to live with her grandparents for two days, and she just took him back yesterday..."

Lu Miao was answering the phone in the hall, while Chen Xiangdong and Liu Xiaozhu followed Tang Mei, chatting all the way to the greenhouse at the back.

Let’s talk about Minister Zhan’s call.

Minister Zhan called to inquire about Lu Miao's health, but there was a hint of inquiry in his words.

Lu Miao thought that the company was busy with official business and Minister Zhan was hinting and urging her to go back to work.

Considering that his daughter's physical condition had basically stabilized, Lu Miao gave a firm assurance over the phone that she would go to work the next day.

Unexpectedly, Minister Zhan changed his tone again:

"Rest when you need to. If you're not feeling well, it's not a big deal to rest for a few more days. That's right! Don't put yourself in a difficult position! If you feel wronged, just speak up. There are plenty of people above you who will back you up."

These words left Lu Miao stunned.

Minister Zhan did have the intention of inquiring during this call, but it was not the kind of "hint" that Lu Miao thought.

During the past few days at work, Minister Zhan never ran into Lu Miao once when going up and down the stairs.

At first I thought Lu Miao was busy with the Ministry of Finance, but when I ran into Yu Hong and asked her about it, I realized that he was sick.

Yu Hong's words also sounded like she was complaining. Minister Zhan felt something was wrong and continued to ask questions, until he found out that someone in the Ministry of Finance had been gossiping about Lu Miao.
