Reborn in the ’80s as a Group Favorite Bigshot – Chapter 135

Chapter 135: This is incredible

Not only is Song Chu intelligent, but she also possesses high emotional intelligence.

In the post-apocalyptic world, she honed her ability to read people, so she knew that Sheng Qingyang would definitely help. That’s why she deliberately made this call in front of Director Luo.

Otherwise, if she was rejected, it would be very embarrassing, and it would also leave Director Luo with the impression that this young comrade was not very capable and unreliable.

“I’d like to ask for your help in talking to the people at the refrigeration plant to see if we can borrow their cold storage for a bit.” This time, she wasn’t just targeting Director Luo, but also Sheng Qingyang.

Sheng Qingyang felt that she had a talent for economic development and wanted to recruit her to work at the County Economic Office.

Song Chu was indeed very interested, but she didn’t want to just sit and wait.

She needed to ensure that she would have a voice and executive power when she went to the Economic Office. To do that, she needed to show Sheng Qingyang her ability to get things done, not just talk about it.

Otherwise, if she went to the County Economic Office and still had several people above her, having to apply for everything, and people might not even agree, she would rather not go.

It wasn’t that she was unwilling to be managed by others, but rather that she hoped to be able to work freely. If she was going to be restricted, she would rather not do it at all.

Sure enough, Song Chu’s words piqued Sheng Qingyang’s curiosity, “Why do you need to borrow the cold storage?”

Song Chu said truthfully, “I had someone make a down jacket, filled with duck down. It’s very warm in winter. I came to the clothing factory today to talk to Director Luo about the possibility of collaborating.”

“But I need to let Director Luo test the effectiveness of the down jacket first. However, it’s so hot now that just wearing it won’t do. So I thought of the refrigeration plant’s cold storage.”

“Neither Director Luo nor I know anyone at the refrigeration plant, so I thought I’d ask for your help.”

Sheng Qingyang was immediately interested in the down jacket she mentioned, “Duck down can be used to fill clothes?”

This was the first time he had heard of it.

“Yes, and it’s much warmer than cotton-padded clothes, and it’s also lighter and more comfortable to wear,” Song Chu replied confidently.

Sheng Qingyang’s interest grew even more, “Did you bring the down jacket?”

“Yes, I asked my mother to make one for men and one for women,” Song Chu said.

“Alright, I’ll contact the refrigeration plant right now and go there myself. You and Director Luo can go directly there too,” Sheng Qingyang said.

The corners of Song Chu’s mouth lifted. She knew that with Sheng Qingyang’s personality, he would definitely be curious and interested enough to go and see for himself.

“You’re going too?”

Sheng Qingyang replied, “Of course, I have to go. If it really has the effect you described, it could be a great opportunity for our county’s clothing factory.”

Clearly, his vision and সাহস were greater than Director Luo’s.

This was also largely related to the family and environment he had lived in.

“Okay, then thank you, Vice-County Magistrate Sheng. I’ll go with Director Luo now.” After saying that, Song Chu hung up the phone.

Director Luo was stunned. Did he hear that correctly?

This Little Song, the pig farm director, was calling Vice-County Magistrate Sheng for help? And he agreed just like that?

He even doubted if he had misheard.

Song Chu brought him back from his daze, “Director Luo, I’ve already asked Vice-County Magistrate Sheng to contact the refrigeration plant. He told us to go there now, and he will also go there to see the effect of the down jacket.”

Director Luo looked at her in astonishment, “You know Vice-County Magistrate Sheng?”

This is incredible!

He sometimes went to meetings at the county office and could see Vice-County Magistrate Sheng, but he had never spoken more than a few words to him.

But Little Song, the pig farm director, could directly call him for help. What kind of relationship did these two have?

How could a pig farm director from a village know the Vice-County Magistrate? He was very curious.

Song Chu smiled and replied, “I’ve met Vice-County Magistrate Sheng a few times. He’s a very enthusiastic and responsible leader.”

These words didn’t imply that she was very familiar with Vice-County Magistrate Sheng, just that they had met a few times.

◈◈◈

But obviously, Director Luo didn’t believe it. He had also met Vice-County Magistrate Sheng several times, but he wouldn’t dare to call him for help, nor did he think he had that much influence.

However, no matter how curious he was, he wouldn’t pry, fearing that it might cause Song Chu to dislike him.

“Since Vice-County Magistrate Sheng asked us to go, let’s hurry.” He couldn’t help but feel a little excited.

Regardless of whether the down jacket project succeeded or not, it would be good to have more contact with Vice-County Magistrate Sheng!

Guo Xia knew that Song Chu knew Vice-County Magistrate Sheng, after all, she had heard from her sister about Song Chu fighting off the thugs and helping him that time.

But she didn’t expect that Song Chu would dare to directly call him for help, and he agreed so readily.

Director Luo didn’t know Song Chu’s background, but she did. She was a proper village girl, and she must have befriended Vice-County Magistrate Sheng through her own abilities.

In addition, Song Chu was not at all intimidated in front of the director. She was well-spoken and articulate, and her words were inspiring. This was a kind of ability that most people couldn’t learn.

She found that her sister-in-law’s younger sister, after changing for the better, was really a very capable person.

Song Chu smiled and nodded, “Okay.”

Director Luo, along with his secretary, rode their bicycles, following Song Chu and the other two to the refrigeration plant.

On the way, he chatted with Song Chu a lot, and the more they talked, the more surprised he was. He realized that he had underestimated the ability and capability of this young director before.

No matter what he said, she could respond, especially her constructive suggestions for the factory’s construction and development, which he found to be very good.

Are young girls nowadays so capable? Was he falling behind?

When the two arrived at the refrigeration plant, Sheng Qingyang had already arrived. He had come by car, so he was faster.

And to show his regard for Song Chu, he sat in the guardhouse at the factory gate waiting.

The director of the refrigeration plant naturally accompanied him, wondering who had such great influence to make this person come early and wait.

Then he saw several people riding bicycles into the factory gate and stopping.

He had seen Director Luo of the clothing factory at meetings before. Although they were not familiar, he recognized him at a glance.

This also startled him. Since when did Director Luo have such a good relationship with the Vice-County Magistrate? To have the influence to make him wait.

Should he take the initiative to get closer to Director Luo?

While he was thinking, Sheng Qingyang had already stood up and walked out.

“Comrade Song, hello.” Sheng Qingyang walked up to Song Chu and extended his hand with a smile.

Song Chu got off her bicycle and shook his hand, “Hello, Vice-County Magistrate Sheng. Thank you for your trouble.”

This guy was really able to put down his airs, coming here early to wait.

This also made Song Chu’s impression of him improve.

“No trouble at all.” Sheng Qingyang withdrew his hand and smiled.

He asked Song Chu for her opinion, “Shall we go to the office to sit down, or go directly to the cold storage to test the down jacket?”

Song Chu said straightforwardly, “Let’s go to the cold storage to test the clothes first.”

“Okay.” Sheng Qingyang nodded, then introduced the middle-aged man who had followed him out to her, “This is Director Li of the refrigeration plant.”

He then introduced Song Chu to Director Li, “This is Director Song of the pig farm.”
