Lin Hongwen originally thought that He Yao would not come again after pounced a few times. It turned out that he was wrong, and just when he thought He Yao had given up, he was blocked.

He Yao took off her gloves, looked at Lin Hongwen with a smile and said, "Busy man, it's really not easy to find you, the Fu family said you were on China Street, and the people on China Street said you went to Fu Family Store." ”

"There's no way, it's complicated", Lin Hongwen said calmly.

He Yao took out an envelope from his bag and handed it to Lin Hongwen, "I don't know how much money you gave to the Russian soldiers that day, I hope it's only a lot more." ”

"No need", Lin Hongwen didn't reach out to pick it up, "Whoever encounters that kind of thing will help." ”

He Yao seemed to have expected him to say this, and he was not reluctant, took back the envelope and said, "Since you refuse to accept the money, then I will buy something in your store." ”

Lin Hongwen said, "Okay, please take a look." ”

He Yao walked back and forth between the silk and satin, casually pointed a few and said that he wanted it, looked at the atlas of ready-to-wear again, and chose two, "I like the tailoring of your firm, and the style is newer than others, I think they look good when they wear them", He Yao closed the album, and suddenly said with some loss, "It's a pity that my father doesn't like it, I don't understand, how can it be that the men's shirtless in the summer, and the women's clothes are slightly close-fitting and have to be pointed at." ”

"You want to be happy when you buy clothes", Lin Hongwen said with a smile, "You just think you look good in clothes, and you don't have to care too much about what others say." ”

"I love to hear this", He Yao laughed again, "Speaking of which, I also went to your Fujiadian business firm two days ago, and there are more foreign cloths over there. ”

"Yes, the patterns of the foreign cloth over there are all the latest," Lin Hongwen said, "The style of the dress is also unique." ”

"Not necessarily," He Yao said with a smile, "It may have been, but now, I see that our family business house has no less foreign cloth than yours." ”

Lin Hongwen was slightly stunned, but immediately reacted again, "Then it seems that we still have to think of some way." ”

He Yao bit her lip lightly, looked up at Lin Hongwen and said, "Do you have to run at both ends every day?" ”

"Almost," Mr. Lin said.

"Isn't there a time when you're not busy?"

Lin Hongwen was thinking about how to answer, and He Yao said again, "How much salary does your boss give you, and you work so hard for him?" ”

Lin Hongwen said in his heart that I was working for him, looking at He Yao's questioning expression, he had to say perfunctorily, "Busy means that the business is good, and the bonus at the end of the year will be more if the business is good." ”

"That's how much is that", He Yao glanced at Xu Qingzhi who was sitting inside dissatisfied, "I think China Street is more leisurely than Fu's store, are you here every afternoon, can I still come to you in the future?" ”

Lin Hongwen thought about it, and neither said yes nor no, but said, "I'm not necessarily here." ”

He Yao nodded happily when he heard this, Lin Hongwen glanced at the inner room, and Xu Qingzhi was also looking at him. Lin Hongwen didn't say anything more, and politely sent He Yao out.

After He Yao's carriage walked away, Lin Hongwen turned around and entered the house and sat down opposite Xu Qingzhi.

"You shouldn't use her like this", Xu Qingzhi looked directly at Lin Hongwen and said.

"I didn't ask her to do anything for me", Lin Hongwen said lightly, Xu Qingzhi frowned unhappily, "You wanted her to die sooner, but today you refused to say it to death, don't you know why?" ”

"If you know why, you're still telling me this?" Lin Hongwen asked rhetorically.

"If you don't want to talk to death today because you like her, even if she is He Gui's daughter, I won't say a word more", Xu Qingzhi stood up and walked back and forth a little irritably, "But you didn't have any intention of her at all, but you just changed your mind when she said about their business house." ”

"You also heard it, she said that the foreign cloth of their business house is not less than ours, you and I both know that this should not be at all", Lin Hongwen avoided the guy and whispered in Xu Qingzhi's ear, "If it wasn't He Gui who found a new supplier, it would be ...... Vincent sold us. ”

"These are two different things", Xu Qingzhi said a little impatiently, "Even if you want to figure out this matter, you shouldn't use her." ”

"Why are you sure that there is only one such thing? She came to the United Commercial Bank in a bright way, He Gui would not know? Have you ever wondered why he let her come? Lin Hongwen retorted, "It's not easy to get to this point, whoever wants to bring us down, I will definitely not let him have a good time." I know what her dad did has nothing to do with her, and I promise you that I won't ask her to do anything. ”

"You promise?"

"I promise," Lin Hongwen said word by word, "I will never ask her to do anything." ”

Xu Qingzhi stopped talking, Lin Hongwen turned his back to him, and put away the album that He Yao had flipped through with an expressionless face.

I would never ask her to do anything, but if she did it voluntarily, then there was no way.

If you want to figure out the whole thing, it is obviously not enough to just get words from He Yao's mouth. Lin Hongwen went to He Mu's place and asked him to find a few fresh faces to go to the different semicolons of He Ji several times, and buy a few feet of the same cloth and come back for comparison.

He Mu pondered for a moment and said, "You have to give me a few more days, I have to string these people, otherwise it will be easy to make people suspicious." ”

"I know," Lin said, "it's best if everyone appears only once in the same semicolon." ”

"I understand", He Mu looked at the sky, "It's not early, do you want to stay and eat?" ”

"It's okay", Lin Hongwen said, "After Shiying came back, I didn't eat with you anymore." ”

"You drink some tea first, I'll do it now," He Mu said and entered the kitchen.

Lin Hongwen sat for a while and felt bored, so he went into the kitchen to see He Mu busy. He Mu didn't say anything polite to him, and filled two bowls of rice for him to wash the rice. Lin Hongwen scooped some water from the water tank with a basin, and his hands stirred in a circle for a while, and poured the water out. Then he picked up a small pinch of rice and put it in his palm and flicked it, "Where did you buy rice?" ”

He Mu glanced back at him inexplicably, "He Ji bought it from the grain and oil shop, the one I used to buy was closed, and now his house is the closest to me." What's wrong with this rice? ”

"It's hard to say", Lin Hongwen walked to the rice tank, grabbed a handful and looked at it carefully, the rice was a little broken, but this was not a big problem, the problem was that some of the rice belly was dark. Lin Hongwen picked out the darker rice and put it together for He Mu to see, "When did you buy this rice?" ”

"The day before yesterday, I saw that the rice was almost gone, so I wanted to go to the original Shengfeng grain and oil shop to buy it, but I went there to see that it was closed with a sign, so I went to He Ji, this rice is old rice?"

"It would be nice if it was just aged rice, but it would be a little longer and the taste would be a little worse", Lin Hongwen looked down at the rice grains in his hand, "but this is mixed with moldy rice." ”

"Moldy?" He Mu took out some rice from the rice bowl again, and looked left and right and didn't believe it.

"I don't know what method they used," Lin said, "and it stands to reason that the moldy rice should be darker." ”

"I don't know how long they've been selling like this," He Mu said, "It's really too tricky." ”

"I guess they have a lot of moldy rice in their hands, but I don't know if it was moldy when they didn't pay attention to it when they stored it, or if it was already moldy when they were harvested last year", Lin Hongwen thought about it and said, "I'm afraid that when He Gui harvested rice last year, he didn't have enough new rice and collected a lot of old rice, maybe there was still moldy rice." ”

"It's too lacking in morality," He Mu said.

"This rice is designated as not to be eaten", Lin Hongwen put on a cotton coat, "You cook first, I'll go to another house to buy some rice and come back." ”

By the time Lin Hongwen bought the rice back and He Mu cooked the rice again, it was already very late. Lin Hongwen told He Mu the idea of buying a textile factory and asked him to tell Zhou Shiying. He Mu asked, "Why don't you sue him yourself?" ”

"I have other things to do tomorrow, and I don't necessarily have time to pass," Lin Hongwen said, "Besides, I haven't written a word about this matter, and I don't know if Qingzhi's letter has been sent." Now that the rent has increased several times, I said that he should not worry, but in fact, I am more anxious than anyone else. We have to find a way to make money back from somewhere else, Shi Ying is a lively person, who has traveled from south to north since he was a child, maybe he can come up with some good ideas. ”

He Mu nodded, "If we can buy a textile factory, we don't have to look at the faces of those suppliers anymore." ”

"I hope so," Lin said.
