Chapter 589 Is marriage a commodity?
Luo Chen has also analyzed the matter between Xu Ran and the Ou family. Judging from Ou Ting's attitude towards Xu Ran, Luo Chen can be sure that the Ou family's hostility towards Xu Ran is only a little bit more.
Especially now that his "sister-in-law" has also come to China, the best way for the Ou family to stabilize the market is to cooperate with Xu Ran.
But Ou Qianna didn't move for a long time, it is conceivable that this "cooperation" was not smooth.
The Luo family would let him choose a notorious Ou Ting as his wife, because they also valued the Ou family's strength in import and export.
If Luo Chen wanted to expand his export business even more, he didn't want to see the "partner" of the Ou family collapse.
But Xu Ran still has such a close supply relationship with himself, and he doesn't want to continue to fall. Both sides are so tense, which makes him want to match the cooperation between the Ou family and Xu Ran even more.
"Boss Xu, do you really not consider cooperation with the Ou family?" Luo Chen asked, "I want to be a peacemaker."
Seeing that Luo Chen would actually say this for the Ou family, Xu Ran smiled and said, "Did Boss Luo come forward because of Ou Ting? Then you two have a very good relationship."
Luo Chen shrugged, there was nothing wrong with Xu Ran thinking so.
But Xu Ran continued: "But Boss Luo doesn't seem to understand Ou Ting yet. If Ou Ting told Boss Luo everything, then Boss Luo would definitely not come and talk to me about it."
Luo Chen also investigated Xu Ran's affairs, but it was not all in detail.
Now he really doesn't know about Ou Ting, but he heard that the business between Xu Ran and Ou Ting collapsed suddenly, and then Xu Ran suppressed Ou Ting desperately. He really doesn't know what's tricky here.
Seeing Luo Chen's expression, Xu Ran said, "Boss Luo doesn't seem like someone who can fight uncertain battles."
She knew that Luo Chen and Ou Ting had no feelings, so what she said just now was just a joke.
But now Luo Chen's reaction is still timid, and the purpose of being a peacemaker should not be pure.
For her to reconcile with the Ou family, the biggest beneficiary in the middle is Luo Chen. After thinking about it carefully, it seems reasonable.
"Boss Luo, there is actually one thing that Boss Luo overlooked." Xu Ran's voice changed, and she wanted to say something more interesting.
Luo Chen looked at Xu Ran with curiosity.
Xu Ran said: "The reason why the Ou family regards me as an opponent is simply because I have what their family has, and I have what their family doesn't have."
Luo Chen was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a bad move!
The Ou family's import and export channels Xu Ran does have..., and Xu Ran's channels are more "off-the-wall", and the profit level is much higher than that of the Ou family.
Xu Ran smiled: "Boss Luo doesn't count on the Ou family, it's not that there are other ways out, and..." At this point, Xu Ran hesitated, and continued: "It's not that I said bad things about the Ou family. Speaking of which, the Ou family is not such an 'exquisite' partner, what Boss Luo wants to get through the Ou family must pay more than what he pays with me!"
Luo Chen's frown became tighter and tighter, he fell into a misunderstanding, he overestimated the value of this ridiculous marriage!
"Boss Xu means...?" He knew that Xu Ran understood what he meant.
Xu Ran shook his head and smiled wryly, and continued: "Boss Luo is wrong to measure marriage by value." If marriage is measured by value, then marriage becomes a commodity, and a commodity naturally has a price.
But value and price are not the same thing, the value of marriage lies there, and it is unacceptable for the person who decides the "price" to set the price without authorization.
"Treating marriage as a business is not advisable in my opinion." Xu Ran said, if it is a business, there are profits and losses, and there are high prices and low prices.
But this is just Xu Ran's own thoughts, and it doesn't mean that other people think the same way.
In other words, whatever you think is actually a subjective idea of a person, and it is all right.Especially marriage, but considering the material basis, a marriage without feelings is worthless and meaningless at all.
For people like Luo Chen and Ou Ting who only regard their marriage as a business without any emotional basis, then the "price" of marriage is... not worth it.
To tell the truth, if the other party has encountered any problems, has no feelings, and does not want to give, how can he have the determination to "help each other"? Isn't it that the disaster is imminent and they fly separately?
Luo Chen's complexion is getting worse and worse. To him, Ou Ting is just a tool, and his marriage can also be used. Now in reverse, Ou Ting's thinking should be the same.
Xu Ran looked at Luo Chen, and suddenly felt a little regretful. As smart as Luo Chen, he still couldn't escape the shackles of being arranged by the family in the end.
But now times have changed, and the ideas of the older generation can no longer keep up with the current society and concepts.Using outdated concepts as standards will only result in failure.
Luo Chen was able to follow the family's arrangement to marry Ou Ting, but in Xu Ran's view, Luo Chen was not firm enough.
Ambition blinded Luo Chen, and underestimated the elastic power of emotion in marriage.
"Boss Xu's words are really... enlightening..." Luo Chen said with a wry smile. He had been trembling in this circle all along, but he didn't expect to take a wrong step.
Xu Ran got up and said, "I'll take my leave first, I will definitely supply the goods according to the contract."
After Xu Ran finished speaking, he left.Regarding Luo Chen, all Xu Ran can do now is to hold on.
She couldn't tell how deep Luo Chen was, but no matter what, he was better than having one more enemy.
As for the Ou family, the competition will become more intense in the future, and Xu Ran doesn't want to do the business of making wedding dresses for others anymore.
…………
When I got home, I was alone. Yan Yue got married and didn't hang out with her anymore. I felt a little lonely by myself.
Xu Ran washed up and went to bed, and it rained at night, making her even more depressed.
Xu Ran went to the company the next day. Now that her contract was won, she had to go back to the greenhouse to sign the contract. Before leaving, she took a tour.
Liu Qian is still the same here, Li Yue still looks down on Liu Qian, Liu Qian can't even draw pictures now, and always feels that Liu Qian can't work here for long.
Liu Qian also knew that her level was not good enough, so she didn't care about her cold words, but if she continued like this, she would no longer be able to spend money for nothing. Xu Ran has a good heart, but she can't treat people as a lack of heart.
Seeing the books on Liu Qian's desk, Xu Ran said, "Have you started learning?"
"Enrolled in an evening school." Liu Qian said, "The salary has been paid in advance."
Xu Ran nodded: "Okay, it depends on whether you live up to your expectations." She didn't say anything else, if Liu Qian couldn't stay in the studio, she wouldn't die of starvation if she was transferred to another position in the future.
Xu Ran left and returned to Yuancheng, and the preparations for the greenhouse were about to begin.
Everyone in the village is busy with the tourism business, and the greenhouse is relatively saturated, so the signing of the contract should be focused on Jinfeng Village.
Most of the people in Jinfeng Village are old people, and the young people have all gone out to work because they can't make much money in the local area.
For the previous batch of contracts, several companies in Jinfeng Village signed contracts. Everyone was also waiting and watching because they were worried that nothing profitable could be grown in the saline-alkaline sandy land.
But last year's profit was obvious to all, and many people were paying attention, waiting for Xu Ran to sign the contract.
Especially now that his "sister-in-law" has also come to China, the best way for the Ou family to stabilize the market is to cooperate with Xu Ran.
But Ou Qianna didn't move for a long time, it is conceivable that this "cooperation" was not smooth.
