Vol 5 Chapter 316: The Light of Apennines (6)

The town has dense vegetation, so this fireworks display was approved by the mayor, and it was moved to the edge of the town far away from the forest. As for whether the fireworks will disturb the people at night, don’t worry, the average time for Italians to go to bed is 23:47.
Also because of the approval at the city hall, the tabloid in the town deliberately put out an "exception" to remind the residents of the town to remember to watch the excitement at night.
So before the fireworks went up, there were already people waiting. When the brilliant sparks bloom in the night sky, there will be more and more people on the street. Such scenes are usually only found in big cities, and it has been rare in the small town of Appiano for more than a decade.
I don't know how many people will remember this moment.
Wang Ai and the mayor stood together, watching and chatting. From time to time, people from the town walked up to him and said something to him. Xu Qinglian and the others went crazy and got tired after clicking. The young people in the town volunteered to take over.
It wasn't until 12 o'clock that Wang Ai's fireworks finished, and he waved goodbye to the mayor, and the people in the town dispersed in twos and threes. Wang Ai and his team pushed the remaining "cannon barrels" to the side of the road. Tomorrow, the raw materials department of the paper mill in the town will take them away.
From the first half-dead to death, the lady was finally tired. And Wiwi hasn't slowed down until now, and she collapsed in Xu Qinglian's arms and meditated on what she had just seen.
Dog food and cat food are ready. Let the two beasts sleep and play. A large group of men and women put all kinds of dishes on the long table in the living room, and the sofa, coffee table, etc. are pushed aside. , The three square tables are put together to form a long table, so that the 13 people can sit down safely.
Dumplings, Yuanxiao, Zongzi and even steamed buns are today's staple food!
Yan Zhu’s deep-fried food, Zhao Dan’s cake, Wang Ai’s Buddha jumping over the wall, lion’s head, stewed duck, Xu Qinglian’s squirrel mandarin fish, Shi Wenjun’s steamed meat, Lin Jiao’s pig’s trotters, Tang Peony’s pot buns Meat, Liu Dingxiang’s chicken stewed with mushrooms, Kang Si’s sauerkraut stewed vermicelli!
In addition, there are also vegetarian dishes such as ground three fresh foods, large peels, tofu soup, and corn kernels.
There is also a lot of wine. Wang Ai deliberately brought a bottle of Moutai from home. I don’t know if it tastes good or not. Anyway, he is famous. In order to take care of Shi Wenjun's two Zhejiang defending tastes, Wang Ai also specially brought a few bottles of rice wine, of course, the main force is beer, Tsingtao beer!
Anyway, looking at the people and dishes at this table, I can't feel that this is a foreign country.
"Come and come, comrades, toast together!" Wang Ai, as the host, sat at the end of the long table and stood up and raised the glass: "Exotic Spring Festival, it has a special flavor. Everyone has worked hard in the past year, and of course I have worked hard, too. This cup of comfort for all of us, I hope that our fatigue tonight will be left to last year, and tomorrow we will set off again in good spirits, come and drink!"
Lin Jiao, Xu Qinglian, Shi Wenjun on Wang Ai's left hand, Kang Si, Zhao Dan, Yan Zhu and others on his right hand toasted together with a smile. More than a dozen cups touched in the middle, and most of them drank in one go. .
Then Wang Ai personally opened the big jar where the Buddha jumped over the wall, took the white porcelain bowl, and divided it into 13 portions. The soup and water were not bad at all. People started eating as soon as Wang Ai got his share, and Kang Si had finished eating and looked at him eagerly.
"Eat less, it's not easy to digest, especially this one." Wang Ai stirred up a fan: "This is called shark fin. You won't need this thing next time you make it. It's more expensive to replace it with fans. Everyone hasn't eaten it before. But you can eat it once."
"Yeah." Kang Si nodded and kept busy stuffing her small mouth, and finally drank the soup. When she looked up, she felt embarrassed and quickly pushed her sauerkraut stewed vermicelli in front of Wang Ai.
Wang Ai flicked her forehead affectionately and accepted Kang Si's kindness.
A meal was eaten for more than an hour, but Wang Ai only ate for half an hour and then withdrew. He will have something to do tomorrow, so the main force of the banquet became the girls of Milan Light. It is said that they played mahjong in the middle of the night. , Played the movie. If it's not for fear of disturbing the people, karaoke can be done.
When Wang Ai woke up, Xu Qinglian didn't know when she came back, and she was asleep. Wang Ai got out of the bed lightly. The room was a bit cold. He quickly put on his clothes and looked back at Xu Qinglian because he got up and felt the bed moved in his sleep, so he adjusted his sleeping posture so that his arms and legs were exposed.
After finishing the quilt for his girlfriend, Wang Ai went downstairs. The living room on the first floor still had traces of the party last night, such as the sofa that was not moved back. Yan Zhu at the door was already dressed. She was waiting. The lady stood up in the corner, yawned, and lay down again. Seeing Wang Ai looked at it, she wagged her tail.
The silent forest is still fascinating, and Milan in early spring is still refreshing. The unchanging footsteps shuttle on the forest path, and there are banging ball touches from time to time.
At 8 o'clock, Wang Ai drank a bowl of porridge at home, ate more than 20 second dumplings, and took Xu Qinglian, Shi Wenjun, and two men and two women with four guards to the Chinese Consulate in Milan. Because the Milan Light website has helped Milan’s small and medium-sized businesses create a huge export volume, and it is rapidly spreading to the entire northern region of Italy. For example, many small and medium-sized businesses from other places have already started to contact Xu Qinglian and them. Therefore, Consul General Zhang informed that the Italian government has already One place for this year's "Star of Benevolence and Wisdom of Italy" was reserved for the Light of Milan.
Therefore, this visit is not only to participate in the annual Spring Festival activities of the Consulate General, but also to report to the organization on this matter.
In the past few days, Wang Ai discussed with Xu Qinglian and Shi Wenjun, and also discussed with Huang Xin in the north, and decided to immediately open the independent official website and payment channel of Milan Light. Judging from the current development situation, purchasing agents cannot be bigger, not because they are afraid of customs, but because purchasing agents are risky. When I was young, I could be directly responsible without problems. After expansion, the level of hierarchy increases, and the possibility of problems increases, especially for luxury goods and durable goods. Once someone exchanges Li Gui for Li Kui, the reputation will be over.
Therefore, the future plans to be divided into two parts: agricultural and sideline food, because they can be shipped centrally and quality control is guaranteed, so Milan Light is still self-operated, that is, purchasing. And luxury goods, durable goods, electrical appliances, etc., guide businesses to the Milan Light website to open small shops.
In other words, Milan Light intends to immediately enter the e-commerce platform + self-built channel model.
At the same time, it is necessary to recruit people and strive to cover all of Italy in the first half of this year!
In addition, the establishment of the "Northeast Light" system for domestic exports to Italy will be completed simultaneously, and the docking will be achieved in the second half of the year to ease Wang Ai's foreign exchange tension.
This is a huge leap, and the workload and nature of the work are completely different.
All this needs to be reported to the leaders and obtain the understanding and support of the relevant domestic departments.
