There were about 40 or 50 guests participating in the event. There is no need to help contact the rental site, the client has a manor on Long Island. The budget is also very generous, with a full $300,000...

As soon as I heard it, I knew that this was a rare big deal, and the operator's tone immediately became lively and his attitude was much more positive.

"...It may not be clear on the phone, or I'll find you where you said. Let's meet first, and I'll tell you carefully?"

"Okay, come to **** on **** street."

After making an appointment with the other party to meet in the store, Shi Xiaolei hung up the phone.

The next thing is very simple, first received the contractor who came to the door in the store, and then called back and called Cinderella, and asked her to take these people back to the manor for a circle. After the 'on-the-spot inspection' was over, these people returned to the store again, and Shi Xiaolei explained his requirements in detail.

"Don't be too extravagant, the gatherings between friends are mainly warm. In addition, the layout of the venue is mainly the interior of the small building, and there is no need to arrange too much outside. After all, the weather has cooled down, so I shouldn't be able to go there. Stay outside. Oh, by the way, there is still an open-air barbecue... In this way, make a bonfire and bring some lanterns. I mean jack-o-lanterns, make a few more to decorate the atmosphere."

He listened in his ears, took a pen in his hand, and wrote down Shi Xiaolei's request in a small notebook.

While recording, he estimated the cost in his mind. When all the items were listed, the person in charge showed a bit of hesitation on his face.

"Sir, you..."

"What's wrong? Isn't it good?"

"No." Shaking his head, the person in charge said with a wry smile: "In fact, it's the opposite. I mean, on the premise that we don't have to prepare drinks and ingredients, the requirements for venue layout are still so low... To be honest, in fact A budget of about 100,000 is about the same, and 300,000 is not needed at all."

"...You are quite honest." Shi Xiaolei laughed, and his impression of the other party improved a lot.

"I'm still thinking about receiving the next entrustment from you." The person in charge smiled: "It's rare to have a big client like you come to the door. I can't miss this opportunity."

After a pause, the person in charge took the initiative to put forward a suggestion: "Otherwise, put this extra budget into clothing and makeup, what do you think?"

"Huh? Let's talk about it."

"Halloween party, cross-dressing is a key point that cannot be ignored." The person in charge suggested: "If you do your own makeup, no matter how good the effect is, it will definitely not be as good as letting a professional makeup artist and stylist do it. I mean, make more If this part of the budget is used to rent clothes and hire makeup artists and stylists, it will definitely improve everyone’s appearance by several grades.”

"Also." Nodding, Shi Xiaolei asked again, "Can you contact a professional makeup artist and stylist?"

"No problem, I know a few special effects makeup artists. If the guests don't mind the trouble and are willing to sit in the dressing room for a few hours, they can even help the guests to make up the monsters in the blockbuster movie." The person in charge said with confidence. : "The same goes for clothing. With the budget you gave me, I can directly contact a company that specializes in renting costumes and props, and ask them to use vans to pull everything in the warehouse and let the guests choose at will. "

Movie-level makeup effects, and a huge selection of costumes... If there are such conditions, the guests will definitely have a good time.

"Okay, just do it like this." Conna's smiling face appeared in his mind, and Shi Xiaolei made a final decision.

"Okay, let's sign the contract now?"

"no problem."

Once the contract was signed and the money was punched in, the party contractor got busy.

To Shi Xiaolei's surprise, they not only undertook the work of arranging the venue, renting clothes, contacting make-up artists, etc., but also undertook the work of contacting guests, and along the way, they also provided them with cross-dressing-related consulting services.

To put it simply, they will call them one by one according to the guest list given by Shi Xiaolei. In addition to 'fixing the party time' and 'asking the guests what foods to avoid' and other tasks that should be done, they will try to avoid similarities and propose different dress-up suggestions for each guest.

There are contractors to take care of these trivial matters, and Shi Xiaolei doesn't have to worry about it at all.

............

A few days passed in a blink of an eye.

Before I knew it, it was already October 31st, and it was Halloween.

Just like the Chinese New Year's Eve is the focus of Chinese New Year's Eve, when Americans celebrate Halloween, the focus is also on Halloween the night before.

Because the biggest and most distinctive activity in this show is to dress up as a ghost, and compared to the daytime, it is obviously more suitable for ghosts at night... Maybe it was just to cater to this activity, the focus of Halloween gradually gradually Moved to the night before.

"Claire~!"

"Come here." Under the urging of her good sister, Claire finally trotted over and opened the door.

"Why are you so slow." He raised his right hand and pointed to the empty wrist. As Lisa walked into the room, she complained, "Didn't we say we'll come pick you up at three o'clock? How did you do it, won't you forget it?"

"No, no." While brushing her hair quickly, Claire replied: "Last night I watched a horror movie and I was so scared that I couldn't sleep, and I stayed up until more than five in the morning..."

"No, you've been sleeping until now?" He stepped forward and snatched the comb from Claire's hand. After a few brushes, Lisa quickly helped her organize her hair: "Where's the rubber band? Put a ponytail first, you'll have to get it there anyway."

"Well." I didn't know where to feel a rubber band, and handed it to Lisa behind him. Claire asked, "Chappell is downstairs?"

"Yeah~lightnovelpub.net~ Didn't you make an appointment early in the morning?"

Shi Xiaolei's manor is located on Long Island, a bit far from Manhattan. Considering that after the party, the time will be relatively late, and it may not be possible to get a car back, so after the three discussed it, they decided to get a car and drive there.

A friend works in an auto repair shop, and the task of borrowing a car naturally falls to Chappell.

At this moment, the car was parked downstairs in the apartment where Claire rented, and Chappell was also sitting in the car.

"Why don't you get down..." After waiting for a while, the two women didn't come down, and Chappell in the car was a little impatient.

Looking at the time again, almost a quarter of an hour had passed since Lisa went upstairs.

I leaned my body to the side of the co-pilot, raised my head and looked up, but there was still no movement...

Somewhat depressed, Chappell had to turn on the car radio and lit a cigarette for himself.

Just as he was listening to the radio and smoking to pass the time, a patrolling police car approached from behind.
