Reborn in 1981, starting by smashing my iron rice bowl.

Qi Haixia quickly stood up, swayed over to Huang Yongchao and Zhao Dongshan, and took their arms on either side, saying, "Oh, bosses, you're already here, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Please sit down, and we can talk things over slowly."

Although Huang Yongchao was more interested in Wei Wanqing, he did not refuse this flirtatious woman and readily sat down at the table.

Qi Haixia had already realized that Huang Yongchao was in charge, so she sat down next to him and said sweetly, "Mr. Huang, our CEO Wei is very sincere about closing this deal, so please give us a chance!"

Qi Haixia was going all out to get this job. Her hand, which had been under the table, was already on Huang Yongchao's leg and was slowly moving upwards.

Huang Yongchao was a lecherous man to begin with; otherwise, he wouldn't have had such wicked intentions towards Wei Wanqing. Provoked by Qi Haixia, he immediately lost his senses and said, "Alright, then I'll give you face, Miss Wei. If you were as easy to talk to as Miss Qi, this deal would have been done long ago!"

Qi Haixia performed even better than he had expected, and Liu Weidong couldn't help but secretly give her a thumbs up. This woman really proved useful in crucial moments; it seemed his job was secure.

However, Huang Yongchao's attitude greatly displeased Liu Weidong. He didn't even look at his own appearance before daring to make a move on Wei Wanqing. It was like a toad trying to eat swan meat!

Wei Wanqing understood Huang Yongchao's meaning, but in order to buy the sewing machine from him, she could only swallow her anger and say, "Mr. Huang, my colleague is right, we are indeed very sincere. I can completely accept the price you mentioned last time, if you have no other problems..."

Huang Yongchao immediately interrupted the businesswoman: "Ms. Wei, the terms we discussed last time don't count. The situation has changed, and we need to renegotiate!"

Wei Wanqing was very dissatisfied and couldn't help but frown, saying, "Mr. Huang, we clearly agreed on all the terms last time, how can you overturn them all with just one sentence?"

"What? You're not convinced? Are you trying to teach me how to do things?" Huang Yongchao said arrogantly, taking a drag of his cigarette. "We Hong Kong people value our word the most. We'll definitely do what we say we'll do, but... it has to be written in black and white in the contract. Words are no proof, right? Haha!"

After he finished speaking, he burst into laughter, feeling smug about how easily he had the powerful woman under his control.

Only then did Liu Weidong realize that these two guys were from Hong Kong, and a cold smile crept onto his lips.

Perhaps to people in the early 1980s, those who came from Hong Kong were all important figures who enjoyed the treatment of foreign guests.

However, in Liu Weidong's eyes, who had been reborn from the 21st century, these Hong Kong businessmen were no different from ordinary people. These days, those who came to the mainland to do business were just small merchants and adventurers looking to make quick money.

These people are just relying on their Hong Kong residency and access to more information to come to the mainland and act all high and mighty, really thinking they're important figures. In reality, they're just ordinary people, and their status in Hong Kong is likely far lower than Wei Wanqing's!

Thinking of this, Liu Weidong slowly asked, "Mr. Huang, I wonder where you work in Hong Kong, Hutchison Whampoa or Cheung Kong Holdings?"

The two companies Liu Weidong mentioned were the most famous listed companies in Hong Kong at the time, while Huang Yongchao was just a small businessman who couldn't even get into these two companies.

Now, suddenly asked by Liu Weidong, Huang Yongchao immediately looked embarrassed, and quickly became angry and said, "What do you mean by this? Are you trying to find out my background? Since you don't trust me, Huang, then let's not do this business!"

After saying that, the guy stood up angrily, looking like he was about to leave.

Qi Haixia quickly and sweetly comforted Huang Yongchao: "Boss Huang, don't be angry. Let's eat first, and chat while we eat!"

Wei Wanqing also spoke up, saying, "Mr. Huang, we can discuss the terms slowly. Please have a seat."

"Hmph, you rude brat!" Huang Yongchao then pretended to sit down and said, "Miss Wei, without me, you wouldn't be able to buy a sewing machine at all, so you'd better be polite to me, or you'll regret it!"

Sewing machines aren't exactly in high demand; it's just that domestic purchasing channels are currently limited, which is why Wei Wanqing had to ask Huang Yongchao for help. This guy acts like a powerful woman can't live without him—it's utterly shameless.

However, Liu Weidong knew that Wei Wanqing was in a hurry to buy a sewing machine, so he didn't expose Huang Yongchao, but just watched him perform with a cold smile.

With Wei Wanqing in charge, the waiter quickly brought out the food and drinks, and it was finally Qi Haixia's turn to shine.

The woman, using both coquettishness and persuasion, quickly revived the previously icy atmosphere. The two Hong Kongers, unable to resist Qi Haixia's constant urging, soon became flushed and bolder.

While Huang Yongchao was groping Qi Haixia, he was also eyeing Wei Wanqing, staring at her lecherously and saying, "Miss Wei, it's not impossible for you to buy this sewing machine, but we need to discuss the terms. We've almost finished eating, and I'm staying at a nearby hotel. How about... we go over and continue our discussion?"

Qi Haixia was determined to make a good impression, and upon hearing this, she immediately said in a sweet voice, "Okay, okay, I'll go with you!"

However, Huang Yongchao said meaningfully, "Miss Wei and Miss Qi are very welcome to come to me, but Mr. Liu, please don't come. My room is too small to accommodate so many people!"

Huang Yongchao's blatant words revealed his undisguised ambition towards Wei Wanqing and Qi Haixia, even suggesting a threesome.

Even Qi Haixia's expression changed slightly upon hearing these words. It was true that she liked this job very much, but she was still somewhat unwilling to have to sleep with a man on her first day of work.

Wei Wanqing was even angrier. When had she ever suffered such humiliation? Even if she stopped running the garment factory, she would not let Huang Yongchao succeed. He shouldn't think that just because he had a few sewing machines, he could control her!

The strong woman's face quickly turned cold, and she frowned, saying in a deep voice, "Mr. Huang, please show some respect!"

However, Huang Yongchao was already drunk and determined to win over this elegant beauty today. He slurred, "What...what respect? I'm a Hong Kong businessman from Hong Kong, the owner of Guangyuan Trading Company. You should be the ones respecting me! As long as you two satisfy me tonight, no matter how many sewing machines you want, it won't be a problem!"

Liu Weidong watched Huang Yongchao's performance with a cold smile, but after hearing Huang introduce himself, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he recalled some long-forgotten memories.
