Chapter 39: Strange Ants

"What the hell is going on?" A thunderous roar of rage rang out. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhao Yuan turned around and walked towards Xia Jincheng almost as soon as he heard the sound, because his steps were too fast and urgent, and he almost fell. Fortunately, Yu Zhaodi quickly supported him, and walked over with him trembling.

"The eldest young master, the eldest young master, it's over, the flowers are all over..."

"I want to know what's going on!" Xia Jincheng's tone was still stern and abnormal, and he felt like he was going crazy when he received the news just now.

He could scarcely believe that the flowers that had been fine a few days ago would become like this overnight.

Without this batch of flowers, the workshop would not be able to produce them, and So Kum Kee would have no rouge to sell this year. The most serious thing is that those merchants who have already placed orders, if they can't supply them with rouge gouache on time, then the Xia family will face a huge amount of compensation. Although the Xia family can afford to pay this compensation, the loss of credibility is fatal to a businessman.

Thinking of this, Xia Jincheng's face turned blue, he had just taken over the flower garden this year and made such a big fuss, and he didn't know how to explain it to his father.

Zhao Yuan also knew that the matter was serious, and he was already guilty, but when Xia Jincheng yelled at him again, his body trembled like a sieve, and he had to kneel and kowtow to admit his mistake.

"I ...... I ......"

Seeing that Zhao Yuan was so frightened that he couldn't even speak, Yu Zhaodi supported him and turned to face Xia Jincheng, "You scared Uncle Zhao like this." ”

Xia Jincheng squinted at her angrily, "I can't teach people your turn to interject!" ”

"You ......" Yu Zhaodi was stunned, she had never seen Xia Jincheng like this, and she had the impression that he had always been a gentle and spoiled big brother in front of her.

Zhao Yuan grabbed Yu Zhaodi, who wanted to argue with Xia Jincheng, but she glared at Xia Jincheng without fear, squatted down and scratched her ankle, which was a little tickled.

Zhao Yuan finally found his voice after taking a few deep breaths, "Young Master, I don't know what's going on, I sprinkled these fertilizers yesterday, and this morning I wanted to see if it had any effect, who knew that as soon as I entered the flower garden, I found that these flowers had all become like this." ”

"Was there any strange movement last night?" Xia Jincheng's first thought was what someone came in in the middle of the night to do, otherwise how could all the flowers wither overnight.

"I ...... I'll immediately go to the person who was on duty last night to find out. When he saw this in the morning, he was so frightened and panicked that he forgot everything. Now that Xia Jincheng reminded him, he immediately thought of finding someone to ask about the situation.

"Go, go, go." Xia Jincheng waved his hand with a dark face, unwilling to say another word to him, but turned around and saw Yu Zhaodi squatting there scratching her feet, "What are you doing?" ”

"I ...... My feet are suddenly itchy......" Yu Zhaodi said with some embarrassment.

"None of them are going to get down to business!" Xia Jincheng threw down this sentence and turned around and left the flower garden, and went to the flower house next to him to wait for news.

Yu Zhaodi, I also felt that my feet were itching a little inexplicably and out of place at this time, so I could only squat there and silently accept his disgusted glance before leaving.

Xia Jincheng was embarrassed to be next to her just now, but when she saw that there was no one around, she lifted her trouser legs to see what was going on, but she saw that there were many ants crawling densely on her ankles.

"Ahh She screamed and jumped up, slapping the ants on her feet, only to see more ants on the ground hovering at her feet.

She screamed again, and ran to the flower room. Xia Jincheng was already unhappy, but when he saw her like this, he felt even more angry, "What is the ghost called!" ”

Yu Zhaodi ignored his impatience at all, and didn't even care that he was next to him, so she quickly took off her shoes and socks and photographed all the ants on her feet.

Although Xia Jincheng was still in a rage, he did not forget the difference between men and women, he frowned disapprovingly and turned his head to the side not to look at her.

Until he shook off all the ants on his feet, Yu Zhao still had palpitations and didn't dare to step on the ground immediately. After a while, he went to the flowerbed again, and found many, many ants crawling out of the flowerbed.

She wondered, secretly wondering, how could there be so many ants.

Because the people on duty at night had gone back to sleep, it took Zhao Yuan a lot of time to find them and inquire about the situation. It wasn't until it was almost noon that he rushed back from outside.

However, he did not bring any news, because several people who were on duty in shifts said that they had not heard any movement at all during the night, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.

For this reason, Xia Jincheng was furious.

Zhao Yuan is an old employee of the Xia family, and he has been working here since Xia Jincheng's grandfather's generation, and he has worked hard to take care of the flower garden on weekdays, and he has never made any mistakes. Xia Qinglan attaches great importance to it, and he is old, even if it is Xia Qinglan himself, he will generally give him some face.

Although Xia Jincheng is young, he speaks very ruthlessly, which makes Zhao Yuan, who is already guilty, feel even more wronged.

Yu Zhaodi saw that Xia Jincheng's good image in her heart in the past had all disappeared, and now he looked like a bastard.

She endured and endured, and after she couldn't help it, she pulled Zhao Yuan over, "Young Master, I think the most important thing now should be to find a way to solve the current priority, instead of trying to blame anyone's fault." What's more, I don't know what caused this incident at all, how can you blindly blame Uncle Zhao. ”

Her voice is neither light nor heavy, just right, not offensive, but also a good warning. At least Xia Jincheng listened, although he glared at her fiercely before that.

He stood up and said to Zhao Yuan, "You can find it here again to see what the cause is, and if there is any way to recover it, I will go back and discuss with my father to see if there is any other way to remedy it." ”

Before leaving, he glanced at Yu Zhaodi meaningfully.

Watching Xia Jincheng leave like a burning ass, Yu Zhaodi breathed a sigh of relief and muttered in a low voice, "Fortunately, it's not a straw bag, I finally have a little brain." ”

If at this time, he concealed the matter for fear of being punished by Xia Qinglan and tried to solve it and make up for it alone, she should look down on him.

"Zhao Di, just ...... Thank you for speaking for me. Zhao Yuan sat down on a chair, early in the morning, he ran the old bones in and out of the city several times, and he was about to disperse.

Yu Zhaodi waved her hand and said indifferently, "It's okay, I just can't get used to him indiscriminately accusing people." However, Uncle Zhao, are those flowers really not saved? ”
