The hotel is facing the street, with a rainy alley on one side and a wet square on the other side. The square is surrounded by gray and thick churches and bell towers. In the distance, there is the turbid Arno River, an ancient bridge on the river, swaying in mist.

Lin Qian had never been to Florence before, but she had been famous for a long time. Now that the battle is imminent, the two of them ran to this small town at the end of the world, as if they were isolated from the world and were in a particularly peaceful mood.

She was sitting on the bed in the hotel room, tidying up the clothes in the box. Li Zhicheng sat next to watch.

He brought the things from Lin City. She soon discovered something was wrong.

He carried a stack of skirts from the box and sent them to him: "Why are you bringing me all skirts?"

Li Zhicheng glanced at the folded skirt, raised his eyes and looked directly at her, and replied lightly: "Because your legs are beautiful."

Lin Qian said "cut", but couldn't help laughing again. It was so inconvenient to have a skirt just when she was out. But she had to accept her fate.

While putting the skirt into the cabinet, she thought: He had never packed her clothes for her normally. Today I realized that his preferences were so obvious and monotonous.

But she soon discovered that her conclusion was wrong. She then found a stack of colorful underwear and bras. His underwear was all black and neatly stacked on the edges.

Lin Qianyi counted: red, black, purple, blue, green, white, brown... She turned her head and looked at him - it was not easy to find so many colors from her entire drawer of underwear.

"What is this for?" She pointed to the stack of fancy underwear, "Seven colors, do you think you are collecting dragon balls?"

Li Zhicheng pillowed his hands on the back of his head, leaned against the bed, and replied, "I can hold it casually."

Tsk! Who believes it? Just take all the seven-color lights?

Lin Qian looked at the straight shirt and leather shoes in front of him, and the handsome face was handsome. Looking at the man who was a giant in the industry, a very disharmonious picture appeared in his mind: Yesterday, he was at home alone, carefully selected his fiancée's little inner and bra, and then folded it one by one and put it into the box.

OK, she admitted that she suddenly felt good.

When he went downstairs, Lin Qian looked at his tall figure and suddenly had an idea: He looked at his black-bellied and sophisticated, and he was calm. Actually, he was very interested in bed and could also make trouble... Thinking of this, her cheeks became slightly hot.

She will also pursue more fun in the future!

At this time, Li Zhicheng was stopping on the porch, lowering his head and making a phone call. His short black hair, sharp edges and thin coat stood in the drizzle, as handsome as a sculpture that had been silent in this small town for many years.

Lin Qian stared at him and felt a little out of mind.

"OK, see youlater.(OK, see you later.)" He hung up the phone and turned to look at Lin Qian, "The other party's car will arrive soon and pick us up."

Lin Qian nodded.

Suddenly he reacted and stared at him with wide eyes: "Your English!"

Did she hear it wrong? She is so fluent and fast, it is no different from her!

Li Zhicheng inserted his hands into his pocket and answered calmly: "I'm practicing."

Go! Last time in the United States, who said that he couldn't even order orders? I have never seen him read English books in the past two years. What kind of English can I practice?

He pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger again! He really did everything he could to chase her!

Lin Qian looked at him hatefully, but he smiled slightly and hugged her into the car.

——

In fact, Li Zhicheng's English was more than fluent. In the next two days, he talked about two companies that made leather goods and casual bags, and he didn't need the translator to be present, nor did he need Lin Qian's help, so he took over the sales agency rights of these two companies in Asia.

Both of these companies are local companies and are not large in scale. One of them has not been sold in Italy, while the other only develops in central and southern Italy. So they are very happy to have Chinese giants like Li Zhicheng discuss cooperation. The agency fee is not expensive. Li Zhicheng won five years of agency rights in one go and placed two huge orders for them at the same time.

When you step out of the other party’s office building, it was dusk. The town was brightly lit, and there were shops on both sides of the long street in front of you. They were all world-renowned luxury brands, like a road to unknown stars.

Lin Qian held Li Zhicheng's arm and looked at his black backpack with documents. He was a little proud: "We are also a rich man and went to Europe to place an order."

Li Zhicheng smiled faintly and looked ahead: "One day, Ida's flagship store will be opened here."

He rarely says such straightforward words. Lin Qian felt aroused when he heard this. He said "Yeah", and pointed to the luxurious shops ahead with great enthusiasm: "In the future, my brand will also be here! I will be next door with yours."

Li Zhicheng suddenly stopped, with his arms retracted, he held her into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her down.

On the streets of foreign lands, strangers of different skin colors were everywhere. He hugged her, stood in the middle of the drizzle street, kissing silently without disturbing anyone.

——

Dinner was used in a small shop on the street. The wine and steak were simple, but the taste was unexpectedly good. Lin Qian was a little drunk. She took out the information in his bag and asked while looking at it: "How many have you gotten in total?"

"In addition to the agency rights reselled from domestic companies, there are a total of five companies." Li Zhicheng replied.

Lin Qian carefully looked through the information of the five companies, including large German companies with a turnover of over 100 million euros, and local Florence companies like the one just now; leather goods and casual bags. However, most of them are moderately priced, and some are supplied to Li Zhicheng at very low prices. There are certain differences in quality, some are comparable to DG's second- and third-tier products, some are very Italian-style, but the work is very rough.

However, they all have a common characteristic - they are old and have a history of at least fifty or hundreds of years.

This is very similar to DG. Lin Qian thought a little bit badly.

After dinner, Li Zhicheng held her hand: "Go and get the agency rights of the last house."

Lin Qian was a little surprised: "So late?"

——

Nightlife in the town has begun, with bar music roaring in the alleys, and street artists wearing wide-brimmed hats and blowing saxophone gracefully against the wall.

Li Zhicheng took Lin Qian and turned several bends before he found a small door face in an alley where local residents lived. The gray-brown stone wall was square and a square door. There was a Chinese lantern hanging at the door, which was hazy and charming.

A tall blonde young man stood at the door and saw Li Zhicheng and came forward enthusiastically: "Hi! Li!"

Li Zhicheng also smiled: "Hi, David."

Lin Qian stood aside and watched the two men hugging each other. It was surprising and interesting.

When did Li Zhicheng make foreign friends? She didn't even know.

The two of them whispered to each other again, and then they looked at Lin Qian at the same time.

"My fiancée, Lin." Li Zhicheng said.

David's blue eyes shone with passion: "What a beautiful girl! Lin, I am David. I'm very happy to see you."

——

The three of them walked into the shop. After a brief conversation, Lin Qian realized that the last time Li Zhicheng traveled around the world to find fabrics suitable for "longbows", he met David. By chance, he became friends.

This time Li Zhicheng came to buy the Chinese agency rights of his ancestral handmade leather bags.

When I entered the store, I found that it was very large, narrow and deep. Although it looked ordinary outside, it was decorated very delicately and close. There were glass cabinets on both sides, and beautiful leather bags lying inside. Lin Qian was also an expert. At a glance, he knew that the workmanship was very exquisite and a rare top-quality product.

"A shop of such a big one, you are the only one?" Lin Qian asked.

"No." David replied with a smile, "There are five girls who are waiters and eighteen workers. I am only responsible for design."

Lin Qian nodded admiringly: "That's great. These bags are the best products I have ever seen when I came to Florence this time."

David was very happy and took out a beautiful handbag from the cabinet and handed it to her: "Give it to you! For your praise."

Lin Qian waved his hand quickly: "It's too expensive!"

David looked at Li Zhicheng - although he looked straightforward and simple, he was very eye-catching.

Li Zhicheng smiled and looked at her: "It's okay, take it."

Lin Qian had no choice but to accept it and couldn't let it go.

It turns out that David has been very casual and free since he took this ancestral shop from his father. He opened it when he wanted to open it, and closed the shop directly when he wanted to go out for a trip, so that the workers would go on vacation. He hiked to some country. However, his craftsmanship, work and design are almost well-known in the entire Florence, so even if he only did a business for one month a year, it would be enough to support himself.

There are also international luxury brands who want to take him and his brand into their pockets. What's the result? He sternly rejected it because he doesn't like a too-tiring life.

This time, Li Zhicheng came, on the one hand, to take over his agency rights in Asia and build a joint venture factory and produce; on the other hand, he was invited to China to play and supervise and manage the production of the factory.

Of course David is willing to do this.

The three of them sat behind the bar deep in the store, with bright lights above their heads. Li Zhicheng took out the agreement from the bag and pushed it in front of him: "Look, if you have any ideas, you can continue to add it."

Unexpectedly, David pushed the agreement back to him: "No need, you have to bear the travel expenses and accommodations between me and China, which is enough to buy the agency rights. Our family is absolutely fair in doing business."

Lin Qian: “…”

Li Zhicheng: "..."

In the end, Li Zhicheng made the decision for the big boy and directly signed the Daming according to the agreement he had drawn up.

Until the next day when I boarded the flight back to China, Lin Qian was still laughing at this.

She leaned against the wide seat and glanced at the man beside her: "You are so amazing. You almost got an agency right after a trip."

Li Zhicheng smiled faintly: "This is also fate."

Lin Qian nodded.

At this time, David, who was sitting on the other side of Li Zhicheng, leaned over and said, "Li, can I ask you a question?"

"certainly."

Lin Qian also looked at him with interest.

"Why do you want to buy my agency?" said David. "Don't tell me it's for money. Although my store is excellent, no one knows it outside of Florence."

Li Zhicheng was silent for a moment and replied: "For competition."

He looked up, looked at the vast blue sky and floating clouds outside the window, and said slowly: "There is an internationally renowned brand who wants to enter my country, acquire my business, and grab the market."

David shrugged: "So I often say that expansion is the most boring thing. It turns crafts into business, boring and ruthless. I support you with annoying invaders."

Li Zhicheng and Lin Qian both smiled slightly, and Li Zhicheng continued: "In China, many people have a concept that they think that foreign products are of better quality than domestic products and can better reflect personal taste..."

David: "Rich!"
To be continued...
