Zhou Shiying blamed himself all the way when he went back, and He Mu saw him with a stern face and asked what was wrong. Zhou Shiying said with a calm face, "I offended He Gui in a hurry. ”

"We have always been with him that the well water does not interfere with the river water, how can you still offend him?" He Mu asked.

Zhou Shiying first learned about He Gui's crying poverty, and said, "Later, Ji Fanchen mentioned the sale of land by the general office of the railway bureau to the Russians, and that person and He Gui were old acquaintances, but Ji Fanchen just asked him to persuade him, but he looked like he had nothing to do with himself." I was a little angry, so I contradicted him twice, who knew that he actually said that our trading house colluded with the Japanese to hoard and raise prices! Zhou Shiying was angry when she talked about this, "I slapped the table and quarreled with him." ”

"And what else did he say?" He Mu asked.

"Let Ji Fanchen block it back", Zhou Shiying said, "But I look at his eyes, he can remember this hatred." ”

He Mu thought for a while and said, "I have to tell Sù Hongwen about this." ”

Zhou Shiying looked at He Mu, once Lin Hongwen knew about it, even if he didn't say it, he would blame him in his heart.

"Don't think about it," He Mu explained, "I'm just afraid that He Gui will attack the other side of China Street first, so I have to let Hongwen know about it." ”

"I know", Zhou Shiying said, "then I'm going to sue him?" ”

"I'd better go," He Mu said, "You've just come back, so let's rest for a while." ”

He Mu is indeed a little strange Zhou Shiying in his heart, and having a holiday with a person like He Gui is not a good thing for a business house that has just improved. But only he and Lin Hongwen knew about Cha Hegui before, and Zhou Shiying didn't know about it, so he couldn't blame him all.

He Mu sat in the carriage a little depressed, and he didn't know who to blame for this. Tracing back to the source, the most blamed is that Ji Fanchen, the price will be reduced, what is the matter of selling land, I want He Gui to persuade him to say it in private, eh? He Mu suddenly figured it out.

When I arrived at China Street, Lin Hongwen was not there, only Xu Qing was in the store, and I was a little surprised to see him coming. As soon as He Mu wanted to explain his intentions, he saw Lin Hongwen holding a bag of things in his left hand and a roast chicken in his right hand, and came in from outside.

"Qingzhi, this roast chicken is delicious, I smelled the fragrance just now. Huh? He Mu? Lin Hongwen blinked his eyes and immediately reacted, "What happened to Shi Ying?" ”

"You put the things down first, and I'll tell you slowly", He Mu said.

Seeing him like this, Lin Hongwen knew that it was not a hurry, so his heart was half relieved, "I went to Baza Market just now and bought a lot of food, didn't you eat either?" Come on, come on, sit down and talk while eating. ”

Lin Hongwen took out the same things and put them on the table, "This is a baked cake, this is a pot helmet, and a leek box." ”

“…… The staple food you bought all", Xu Qingzhi couldn't help but ask.

"No", Lin Hongwen said, "I haven't finished it yet, and there are sauced beef, smoked pork feet, salted peanuts, roast chicken, yes, I also bought a roast leg of lamb." ”

He Mu looked at Lin Hongwen covering half of the table, "Can you finish eating?" ”

"There are too many delicious foods," Lin Hongwen said, "and I want to buy everything." I didn't want to buy this roast chicken, but the boss had to tear down a chicken wing for me, so I tasted it......"

"Then I bought it, right", Xu Qingzhi said the second half of the sentence for him, and looked up at He Mu and shook his head helplessly, "Since the money was returned, he has been reincarnated like a starving ghost." ”

He Mu couldn't help but be happy, Lin Hongwen said while washing his hands, "Some time ago, I was reluctant to eat and wear, but I finally relaxed, can't I buy it casually when I go to the miscellaneous market?" ”

"Okay, of course it's okay", He Mu pulled a chair and sat down, Lin Hongwen gave him a baked cake, He Mu took a bite, the skin was crispy, the oil and salt inside were delicious enough, mixed with sesame seeds and chewed in the mouth, it was very fragrant, "This baked cake is good." ”

"Yes", Lin Hongwen tore the roast chicken intently, "I told you, let's go together next time, keep you if you don't have time to talk about me, patronizing and drooling." ”

As he spoke, he went to the back and took the plates and chopsticks, first put the roast chicken and beef and mutton on the plates, and then laid out the dishes and chopsticks one by one, He Mu was dumbfounded, and turned his face to look at Xu Qingzhi, but he saw that he had a calm face, and seemed to be accustomed to it.

Lin Hongwen finally sat down, and the three of them first buried their heads in eating half full, He Mucai opened his mouth to talk about Zhou Shiying, and Xu Qingzhi couldn't help frowning when he heard it and asked, "Does that Ji Fanchen want to use others as gunmen?" ”

"You think so, too?" He Mu said, "I think so too, otherwise why wouldn't he talk about it in private." ”

"I'm afraid he can't get used to He Gui for a long time, today he discussed a price reduction, He Gui cried poor again, who doesn't know that his grain store and oil mill are so rich that they are going to flow oil", Lin Hongwen said, "The sale of land is indeed indignant, but to say that it is all done by Zhou Mian, and it has nothing to do with He Gui." He just threw a lead and made He Gui provoke the anger of the public. Don't blame Shi Ying for this, his father's grave only moved over two years ago, and there are dozens of people in the caravan who don't even have graves, can he not be angry when it comes to this kind of thing. ”

"It's just that our situation has just improved," He Mu said, "and that's what happened." ”

"Don't worry", Lin Hongwen said, "Since He Gui can make his business bigger, he is not a person who can't hold his breath." He promised Ji Fanchen in front of so many people that he didn't care about this matter, if he turned around, what would happen to us, wouldn't it seem that he didn't believe in his words? ”

"I'd rather he can't hold his breath," Xu Qingzhi said, "The longer it drags on, the greater the gift he wants to give us." ”

"Just pay attention to it", Lin Hongwen said, "At least before this battle is over, he shouldn't be distracted to attack us, and when the time comes, just see the move." ”

He Mu was about to leave after eating, and Lin Hongwen sent him out. He Mu understood that he had something to say, and it was inconvenient to say it in front of Xu Qingzhi. The two walked a few steps along China Street, and Lin Hongwen said, "Tell those people of you to be clever and pay attention to any troubles." Qingzhi and Shi Ying don't know his bottom, but the two of us know. ”

"I understand," He Mu said, "I came to tell you because I was worried about that." ”

"Go back and comfort Shi Ying for me, let him not take it to heart", Lin Hongwen said, and called a carriage for He Mu.

"I know," He Mu responded, getting into the carriage, "Go back." ”

76.

After He Mu went back, he brought all Lin Hongwen's words, but Zhou Shiying was not much relieved, and still looked like he blamed himself. He Mu said, "If you do this again, I will bring Sister Hong, I think she can cure you." ”

"What do you mean she can cure me?" Zhou Shiying said unconvinced, "How could I be cured by someone when I am so good?" ”

"Then who knows?" He Mu smiled, "I knew that last winter, no one was so worried that he couldn't sleep all night, and then went to Sister Hong's, hey, guess what, he can fall asleep!" ”

Zhou Shiying glanced at He Mu and did not make a sound. Qin Hong is naturally very relieved, even if she doesn't speak, Zhou Shiying feels at ease. Every time I have a headache, thinking about the temperature of her fingertips, it seems to be somewhat better. Zhou Shiying is greedy for this kind of temperature, he likes to kiss Qin Hong's fingers, and he likes the feeling when they touch him, and the touch always makes him addicted to it and can't extricate himself.

Zhou Shiying, who couldn't extricate herself, went to the Yinghua Building at night without control. Qin Hong had unlimited scenery in the past few years, and her worth has also risen, but since last year, she said that she is old and has pushed many customers, and she only sees a few regular customers on weekdays. But her regular customers are also unaffordable bustards, thinking that she has made a lot of money for Yinghualou over the years, so she will follow her.

When Zhou Shiying arrived, Qin Hong was eating, and when he saw him coming, he smiled and beckoned him to sit down, and ordered someone to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks, "The new cook, the fried double crispy is delicious, try it quickly." ”

Zhou Shiying sandwiched a pair of chopsticks, which were indeed crisp and smooth, and the saltiness was moderate, so he said sincerely, "It's really good." ”

Qin Hong served him a bowl of melon slices and egg drop soup, "I have tried a few dishes in the past few days, and they are all doing well, better than the previous cook." It's a little late today, next time, let him do a few more dishes for you next time. ”

"Okay", Zhou Shiying lowered his head and smiled in agreement.

Qin Hong tilted her head and looked at him for a while, "Is there something unpleasant again?" ”

"I can't hide anything from Sister Hong", Zhou Shiying smiled bitterly, "I did something wrong on the spur of the moment." ”

Qin Hong was stunned, "Whose girl are you ruining?" ”

Zhou Shiying choked when she heard this, and coughed for a while with tears glistening in her eyes, "How can I have the leisure to spoil anyone's girl." ”

"It's good if it's not", Qin Hongmei smiled and poured him a cup of tea, "Then what did you do wrong, can you tell me?" ”

"Business," Zhou Shiying said a little dullly, "Although they all relieved me, I did cause trouble for them." ”

Qin Hong pondered for a moment and said, "Since things have been done wrong, why don't you think about how to remedy it?" ”

"It's so difficult that it can't be remedied for a while," Zhou said.

Qin Hong said, "Although I don't understand your twists and turns, you do business to make money after all." If you do something wrong, you must end up making less money or not making money, in this case, you just give up your ability and make more money for the firm. ”

Zhou Shiying listened, raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Sister Hong is really clear-minded, I've been annoyed for a long time, and you can dismiss me in a few words." ”

"In fact, when it comes to thinking, Hongwen is also a careful person, don't always worry about yourself, give him some things, he can do well", Qin Hong said.

Zhou Shiying said in his heart that I had somewhere to support him, but he still said, "Hongwen was brought by Qingzhi, and I can't support him to do things." ”

Although Qin Hong didn't know the relationship between them, she could understand this statement, but she frowned slightly and said, "You have to be nice to him, be careful of being dug into the corner by others." ”

"Of course, Qingzhi originally treated him like a brother, and those businessmen who often came and went knew that seeing him was no different from seeing Qingzhi himself", Zhou Shiying said with a smile, "Don't worry, we never treat our own people badly." ”

Qin Hong nodded and said, "That's good." ”
