Chapter 322: I shouldn't be so inappropriate

"Jia Jia, you still have to give face to President Qu." Chang Yuanliang frowned, obviously unhappy, "He arranged it for you out of kindness. If you refuse, President Qu will be embarrassed. In the past, he was also very supportive of your father's work. Now that he is willing to take care of you, you have to give him this face."

Face, face, for the sake of face, even face is gone!
Cui Changjia said sarcastically, "I told you that my dad won't agree to use the booth for free. He gave us the best location, so we have to pay for it. His temper is not only understood by you, Uncle Chang, but also by President Qu. Do you want us to give face to President Qu, or do you want us to beg for money everywhere to get the booth fee?"

Her tone was quite impolite, and Chang Yuanliang was so angry that his face turned pale.

"Jia Jia!" Cui Xiuyuan stopped Cui Changjia from speaking and said to Chang Yuanliang, "Uncle Chang, Jia Jia is in a bad mood and is a little outspoken. Please don't take it personally."

Chang Yuanliang couldn't hold back his expression, and said in a neither light nor heavy tone, "You are not a child anymore. If someone tries to cause trouble again, you shouldn't be so tactless when speaking!"

Cui Changjia sneered, "Uncle Chang taught me that I will learn from you in the future, do more sensible things, and say more sensible words. Brother, Mr. Tong and I will wait for you in the car."

After saying this, Cui Changjia turned and left.

Cui Xiuyuan frowned, thinking that Jiajia has always been sensible in doing things and shouldn’t be like this. What happened today?
"Uncle Chang."

Chang Yuanliang sighed and said helplessly, "Xiuyuan, Jiajia is just like my child. I won't mind if she gets a little mad. But since President Qu has brought up the matter of this position, you shouldn't refuse him. If your father is stubborn and insists on paying, uncle will give you the money."

Cui Xiuyuan thought to himself, you took the money for us, so we must pay it back. Do you think that the money our family owes is not enough?
"Uncle Chang, Jiajia has the final say on family matters, so don't worry about us. I think the next meeting is about to start, so you should go back quickly. I have to go find Jiajia. I'll leave first."

Watching Cui Xiuyuan leave, Chang Yuanliang's eyes darkened and he felt a little heavier in his heart. Well, it seems that as an uncle, he will have no authority in front of them anymore!

Cui Xiuyuan went out to meet Cui Changjia and Tong Wei, but was stopped again in the lobby on the first floor.

It turned out that many people who had left early had not left yet and were gathered in a certain place in the parking lot. A large number of people here were small business owners.

They are all very angry. Big brands have money and are not afraid of receiving exhibition fees, but what about small bosses like them?
In the past, when Mr. Cui held trade fairs, small factories with annual sales of no more than five million were allowed to attend for free.

"Boss Cui, this is not right," someone stopped Cui Xiuyuan, "The Furniture Association is doing this to deny us a way out."

"Mr. Cui, let's go find Mr. Cui. It would be better if we could hold the trade show ourselves."

"Mr. Cui, please take us to find Mr. Cui."

"Yes."

The voices of the crowd became louder and louder, and they surrounded Cui Xiuyuan, causing him to break out in a cold sweat. If Qu Qingyang knew that these people still obeyed the Cui family, he would definitely be suspicious.

Just when Cui Xiuyuan was at a loss, Cui Changjia pushed everyone aside, walked in and said to everyone, "Everyone knows about our family's situation. We are lucky to be able to protect ourselves. We really can't take care of this matter. We will leave first."

After saying that, she pulled Cui Xiuyuan into Tong Wei's car and left immediately.

Sitting in the car, Cui Changjia said to Cui Xiuyuan, "Brother, turn off your phone and don't answer anyone's calls recently. I think Chairman Qu and the others may have realized that this kind of trade fair is not easy to organize, so they asked Uncle Chang to lobby us to sign up for the best booth for everyone to see." Cui Xiuyuan understood what Cui Changjia meant. Qu Qingyang should mean to let everyone see that even though the Cui family was in such a situation, they still had to sign up for the best booth.

Cui Xiuyuan nodded. He listened to Cui Changjia's words and then turned off all his cell phones. He now used two numbers, one was his original number and the other was his father's.

Tong Wei said, "Several people just called me and said that the membership fee is too high and they don't know what to do." As he was talking, his own phone rang. He said, "Look, there's another one."

Tong Wei picked up the phone and said quickly, "I don't know if I'm with Cui Xiuyuan yet. I have plans for lunch today. Let's make an appointment another day."

Tong Wei quickly dealt with the incoming call, then turned to Cui Xiuyuan and said jokingly, "Boss Cui, you've become very popular today!"

Cui Xiuyuan smiled bitterly, "I don't want to be such a popular person!"

He doesn't have the ability to compete with the Furniture Association!
Cui Changjia asked Tong Wei to take them to Hengmao International's office. The three of them had ramen noodles nearby at noon. Tong Wei left for something, while Cui Changjia and Cui Xiuyuan returned to the office.

When they arrived at the office, Cui Changjia made a cup of coffee for her and her brother, then moved a chair and sat in front of the window to drink coffee.

In late September, the air was no longer hot and the temperature became comfortable.

Sitting by the window, enjoying the slightly warm breeze, holding a cup of coffee and looking into the distance, they both felt a little more relaxed.

"Qu Qingyang has gone too far this time. This completely goes against the original intention of the Furniture Association. Don't tell Dad about this when you get home, or he will be disappointed."

"I know," Cui Changjia said after taking a sip of coffee, "Brother, let's make this bigger. If it gets bigger, people will know about it and take care of it."

Cui Xiuyuan was surprised, "How did it get so big?"

"Let's report to the Economic and Management Committee that the furniture association is not doing anything, charging too much for the exhibition, and not caring about the lives of small businesses."

The supervisory department of the Zhoucheng Furniture Association is the Zhoucheng Economic and Management Committee.

"The Economic and Management Committee must know about the exhibition, and the response may not be effective." Cui Xiuyuan frowned and said, "Let's put aside whether it will work or not. Another thing is that our family should not interfere now. If Qu Qingyang knew that the idea was ours, we would definitely have more enemies."

"So I didn't say it in front of Tong Wei, and we won't let anyone know it was us who did it."

Cui Xiuyuan was surprised, "What should we do then?"

"I bought dozens of anonymous phone cards and made calls, not only to the Economic and Management Committee, but also to the municipal government. I wanted to let the leaders know that the Furniture Association was not doing anything, and I also wanted to let people from other associations know, so that they would laugh at the Furniture Association for using any means to make money!"

On the way out this afternoon, Cui Changjia had made the Cui family's attitude clear to everyone, which is that no matter what you do, we will just participate. Anyway, we would rather spend money than lose face for Qu Qingyang. So everyone would think that the Cui family is now completely helpless, timid, and afraid of trouble, so they would not doubt what they did.

My dears, today I have two updates. I will go to bed early after reading them. Those who are going to work or school tomorrow should have a good rest. Good night
