In any industry, there are differences between big and small transparency.

This is especially true in the field of artistic creation. An artist, whether he is a singer, acting, or a pottery or a painter, has had famous works, awards, and has been reviewed and recognized by the public, and his name will become the added value of his works.

Luo Jingyu is a little transparent person in the industry. He has never taken over a large commercial order, has never participated in exhibitions with independent works, has never won awards, and has never participated in auctions. No matter from any aspect, he is not qualified to compare with Xu Qingyan.

Xu Qingyan goes to Kyushu, Japan for two months every year to study, and learn higher-level hot pot techniques. After obtaining the authorization of the Japanese side, she sorts out the teaching materials and returns to Shanghai to teach students in China.

In addition to studying, students must also hand in their homework according to the level they are learning. These homework will be sent to Jiuzhou classroom by Xu Qingyan. After passing the qualification, they will be awarded the students with the corresponding level certificate.

Luo Jingyu goes to Shanghai every year to study in Xu Qingyan's studio for a month and a half.

Tuition is very expensive, and the higher the level, the more expensive it is. However, he can't save this money when he works in this industry full-time.

Luo Jingyu also wanted to go to Japan for further study, but he couldn't hear it and could not compete with other students for translation. There were too many difficulties and he had to give up in the end.

Therefore, his offer is higher than Xu Qingyan, and it will definitely become a laughing stock if it is rumored.

Ji Hongzhe said to Dong Cheng: "Mr. Dong, is this a misunderstanding?"

Dong Cheng asked: "What do you say?"

Ji Hongzhe glanced at Luo Jingyu: "I have known him for more than 20 years. He is not so crazy. He is not such a person at all."

Dong Cheng looked at Luo Jingyu with a red face and smiled: "I think so too."

At this time, Luo Jingyu finally responded and started sign language to Ji Hongzhe. Ji Hongzhe did not translate it as soon as possible, but communicated with him a few words, and finally gestured: [Are you sure?]

Luo Jingyu nodded, clenched his fist with his right hand, stretched out his index finger, and stroked it from top to bottom, which means: [Confirm.]

Ji Hongzhe turned to Dong Cheng: "Mr. Dong, Teacher Luo said sorry to you. This time, he made the budget high because of his lack of experience. Later, he made a budget again, but he didn't have time to tell Mr. Fang. Well... Teacher Luo said that the correct quotation should be 180,000, and out of apology, the design and teaching fees of the cherry blossom hair comb can be waived, and 180,000 is the total package price."

Luo Jingyu wanted to pay 150,000 or 160,000, but it was even further apart from 220,000, which would seem to be asking for a price all over the place, so he could only grit his teeth and pay 180,000.

After listening to this, Dong Cheng translated it to Mr. Chi Jiang. The scorching color on Luo Jingyu's face had not yet faded. She sat respectfully, and she felt a layer of sweat behind her back.

After a while, Dong Cheng listened to Mr. Chi Jiang's feedback and said, "Teacher Luo misunderstood. We have made an appointment to meet you this time, not for bargaining. Art is priceless. Mr. Chi Jiang accepts the price of 220,000, and it will not change again. I just hope that Mr. Luo can make it with care, so it is worth it for Mr. Chi Jiang."

The meeting was over, Dong Cheng bought the order and accompanied Mr. Chi Jiang to leave first.

Luo Jingyu and Ji Hongzhe were left in the box. Ji Hongzhe was drinking tea and eating snacks, and asked Luo Jingyu in sign language: [Little Fish, what's going on?]

Luo Jingyu was very powerless and answered by sign language: [My partner’s surname is Fang. He reported the price higher and did not tell me.]

Ji Hongzhe frowned: [Then why didn't you explain it just now?]

Luo Jingyu stared at him, and her sign language was thrusting hard, as if she was filled with emotions: [I would not make me more professional when I pushed the blame to Fang, but it would only make them feel that Fang and I don’t trust each other, and shirk responsibility when encountering problems. At present, Fang and I must be consistent with the outside world so that customers can trust us! As for how I communicate with Fang, I have to close the door before talking about it.]

Ji Hongzhe understood, swallowed the last piece of red bean cake, patted the food crumbs on his hand, and asked, "Then it's over today, right? If it's okay, I'll leave first."

Luo Jingyu gestured: [Thank you today, will I treat you to dinner tonight?]

"I won't eat anymore, there's a date." Ji Hongzhe smiled evilly, "It's Christmas today! Who wants to have dinner with you, a single dog?"

Luo Jingyu: "..."

Speaking of Christmas, he remembered the matter of buying gifts for Zhan Xi, got up and put on a coat, put on a scarf and asked Ji Hongzhe: [Are you dating your girlfriend tonight?]

Ji Hongzhe replied: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Luo Jingyu pursed her lips and asked a little unnaturally: [Have you bought Christmas gifts for your girlfriend?]

"Buy yarn!" Ji Hongzhe laughed, "Just have a meal, at most you can watch a movie, what gifts should you buy!"

Luo Jingyu was still confused about why she wanted to buy "wool". After reading Ji Hongzhe's entire sentence, she understood.

The two went out together to go downstairs. After leaving the teahouse, Ji Hongzhe asked, "Where are you living now?"

Luo Jingyu: [Qingque Gate.]

"That's far enough. If it's not going well, I won't give it to you." Ji Hongzhe patted Luo Jingyu's arm, "Let's go back and have a good chat with your partner. Is it embarrassing to give it a few quotations?"

——Of course it’s embarrassing.

After Luo Jingyu said goodbye to Ji Hongzhe, he walked alone on the street. As he walked, he realized that he had forgotten to take the mask out.

The thick trench coat did not have a hood. Luo Jingyu was not used to showing her face on the street. She reached out and pulled the scarf up a little, barely covering her mouth and chin.

Touching the soft scarf with his fingers was a Christmas gift from Huanhuan. When he thought of her, he sent her a WeChat message.

【What a big fish】: Huanhuan, I'm finished.

[Egg Pudding]: [surprised] What happened? What happened? Wasn't the conversation good?

【What a big fish】: The negotiation is over.

[Egg Pudding]: Then why do you say you are finished???[Question]

【What a big fish】: The talk is over.

【Egg Pudding】: [囧]

Putting the phone back in his pocket, Luo Jingyu looked up and looked around. It was the city center, which was very lively. There were large shopping malls and supermarkets nearby, and everything was sold.

What Christmas gifts should I buy for Huanhuan?

Clothes? Bags? Perfume? Cosmetics? Jewelry?

These things are like gifts given to your girlfriend by your boyfriend, which is quite... ambiguous.

Luo Jingyu didn't dare to let Zhan Xi discover his intentions, so he turned his thoughts in other directions.

Huanhuan has been moving for more than half a month. Is there anything she lacks in her home? It is best to use common things, daily necessities, and similar to moving gifts. Luo Jingyu thought while walking, and saw a large supermarket in front of her, so she walked in.

——

Zhanxi was having a headache at this time because Chi Guilan called her and said something very much.

"Register for the provincial exam! Register! Sign up for me!" Chi Guilan was so anxious, "Why do you have to remind you of this kind of thing? Huanhuan, sign up quickly. If you dare not register, you won't have to come back on New Year's Day!"

Zhanxi: "…"

Chi Guilan was still saying: "The exam will be taken at the end of February next year, and some units are still good. Next month, you can sign up for a class and your mother will pay you!"

"No, right?" Zhan Xi held his forehead and said quietly, "I will sign up, I won't want to sign up. We will be very busy at the end of the year."

"No! Pay attention to the provincial exam! You didn't pay attention to the last time you didn't take it seriously!" Chi Guilan shouted loudly, "There are only a few opportunities every year. Do you think you are still very young? You fooled it again and again? You have to treat it as the college entrance examination! This is the exam that changes your destiny!"

Zhan Xi thought, how did this change her destiny? If she can’t get into a civil servant exam and can’t get into a professional position, she will be useless? Life will be over?

However, at this time, I couldn't have a tough fight with Chi Guilan. My mother was injecting blood, so Zhan Xi could only agree and hang up the phone.

Yuan Sichen saw her lying on the table and asked with a smile: "Xiao Zhan, where did you go for a date yesterday?"

Zhan Xi tilted her head and looked at her: "No date."

"Who are you lying to? Didn't a handsome guy wait for you to get off work downstairs yesterday?" Yuan Sichen said, "I saw it all, and Lin Yan saw it too?"

"It's just a friend." Zhan Xi didn't want to say much, "Just have a meal together."

Yuan Sichen sighed like a person who came here: "Oh... who didn't start with a friend?"

Zhan Xi fell on the table again.

Her eyes were hidden in her arms, and she naturally thought of Luo Jingyu.

Xiaoyu said that when she came to the company to wait for her, she didn't feel inappropriate at all. She never thought about what her colleague would feel if she saw him; she never thought about how she would introduce him if someone asked; she even thought about what she would think of if they found out that Luo Jingyu was a deaf and mute person.

However, the little fish is a little fish, and it is not his fault that he cannot hear his ears.

After get off work, Zhanxi bought orders and walked into the community gate.

Walking along the main road, her eyes unconsciously glanced to the right, she stopped and saw someone sitting on the bench not far away, looking at her with a square colored carton beside her.

It's Luo Jingyu!

Zhan Xi ran towards him happily, and then shouted in front of him: "Little Fish! Why are you here?"

Luo Jingyu put the back of his right hand under his chin, and pointed at Zhanxi.

Zhan Xi widened his eyes and asked, "Are you... waiting for me?"

Luo Jingyu nodded.

Zhan Xi looked at the carton beside him, and there was a pot printed on the outer packaging and asked, "Did you buy a pot?"

Luo Jingyu stood up, picked up the cardboard box and handed it to Zhanxi solemnly.

Zhan Xi was puzzled: "What are you doing?"

She took the box and hugged it in her arms. It was so heavy! Luo Jingyu took out her cell phone and typed it for her: [Christmas gift, I'll give it to you.]

Zhan Xi was stunned: "..."

This is a pressure cooker or a very high-end pressure cooker.

Zhanxi does not have a pressure cooker, but no matter what, I never imagined that someone would give a pressure cooker as a Christmas gift. What a wonderful brain circuit?

Luo Jingyu was very proud and typed to her: [You can steam old duck.]

After Zhanxi looked at the phone, he bent his lips and smiled.

The two old ducks with sauce were still hanging on Zhanxi's balcony! She quickly said, "Thank you, thank you, you are too thoughtful! I really don't know how to steam the duck with sauce."

Luo Jingyu compared a sign language that was "you're welcome", inserted his hands into his pockets, looked down at his leather shoes, and felt embarrassed.
