Coriander doesn't want to be a cart puller for the rest of her life, and Coriander naturally doesn't want to be a bartender at Baiyuemen all the time.

Now that she has made up her mind, she can't be as hangy as before, and it's time to seriously start the cloth shop she and Lao Qu partnered with.

If the business license is not approved, the cloth shop will not be able to open the business, and Lao Qu will not be able to do it. If you don't open your business, it's better to go to the northwest to drink the wind.

Shenlong saw that the coriander who had not seen the end of the head finally appeared, and when he thought that their brother and sister had suffered a lot of sins in recent days, Lao Qu suddenly lost the mood to blame the coriander, but he was not happy that they won the lawsuit.

Today, coriander came to Xingrong Road, and saw that the interior decoration of the cloth shop that had not yet been listed was already impressive, and I had to admire the efficiency of Lao Qu, and also noticed the seriousness of this old family doing this business.

The store is incomplete, most of the shelves are still empty, and some of the furnishings are still being made.

Lao Qu pays attention to tradition, and has really put a lot of effort into the new store, and even invited someone to look at feng shui, and selected a few good days and auspicious days for opening.

For the license of this store, Lao Qu is in a hurry.

As soon as the coriander came, he talked about it, "Second Master Lu Ziguang, you intercede with him, see if you can go and get our license off quickly." ”

"It's a lot of a headache for this." Coriander can say that Fujihiko Tang is also eating and sleeping for the same thing, "The business license is not in a hurry, and it is good to make more preparations while you have enough time." ”

As the saying goes, sharpening knives does not mistake woodcutters.

Lao Qu is about to wear out the blade.

He took out the embroidery samples that Shi Lan had made in the past few days, most of which were plain handkerchiefs embroidered with patterns.

The veil is very popular among the ladies. It is not a precious thing, but it is worth the hot solar terms, but it is a weapon to prevent heatstroke.

Like an inspection, coriander has a discerning eye.

Shi Lan was afraid that the coriander would not be satisfied, so she hurriedly said: "The patterns on these handkerchiefs are all learned by me from the embroidery lady of the embroidery village, and they are all popular nowadays." ”

Coriander picked up a goose yellow handkerchief embroidered with graceful willows, looked at it again and again, and couldn't tell which was positive and which was negative, she gave an evaluation: "The embroiderer didn't say." The embroidery is too old-fashioned. She cocked her orchid finger. Twisting the corner of the handkerchief and shaking it twice, "If you have kung fu in the future, think of more new patterns, and don't embroider this kind of handkerchief anymore." ”

Lao Qu held a handkerchief. I think it's good. "Don't you like this kind of handkerchief girl's family very much?"

Does like it mean that there is a market?

He didn't want to think about it either. I am afraid that the cloth shops selling this kind of cloth in the entire Shanghai market cannot be counted.

Unless they can devise a new pattern that is sought after by the public, they will not be able to sell out of this kind of cloth in their small cloth shop until next year.

Cilantro threw the handkerchief into the box, "Let's take these as samples." When it opens in the future, whoever comes to buy something will give them one for free. ”

Shi Lan felt very uncomfortable in her heart, not because Cilantro said that she would give away the handkerchief she made for free, but she couldn't believe that the fruits of her hard work didn't have a family's mind?

Coriander's words were undoubtedly a blow to her.

When she took these embroidery samples to other cloth shops, she could at least exchange them for dozens of copper yuan, which became worthless in the eyes of coriander.

Gotta work in vain.

I'm afraid that this time's salary will be gone, if it continues like this, Shi Lan doesn't know that the Year of the Monkey will be able to pay off the money owed to Lao Qu.

Lao Qu was also very uncomfortable, this had not yet opened for business, and Coriander gave a loss-making idea.

He straightened his face and reprimanded Coriander like an elder, "This cloth line, do you still want to open it?" When there is something, I don't see your shadow, when you have nothing to do, you come to point fingers, you think these patterns are not good, you embroider them! ”

Coriander grabbed a handful of handkerchiefs and barred with him, "These gadgets can be sold for a few buckles, but the money from selling a handkerchief is not enough to eat a bowl of wontons." ”

"Isn't this just like a cake, it's all a small profit but quick turnover, if you want to make a lot of money and open a cloth shop, I think you're dreaming!"

"Who said you can't make a lot of money if you open a cloth shop, can you be a little ambitious?"

Ambition? That's something that only young people have!

Lao Qu felt that he was really dazed at the beginning, why did he listen to the coriander and be led away by her nose.

He was too old to have much energy to do it with their young people, and if it weren't for the strength of not accepting the old, he would have given this shop to someone else.

Coriander took out the things she had prepared before and handed them to Lao Qu and Shi Lan respectively.

At first glance, Lao Qu saw that it was an agreement in duplicate. Shi Lan's is the same, but the content is different.

Shi Lan is not very literate, and when she got the agreement, she was almost blind, "What is this?" ”

"Your labor contract, you wrote it very clearly on the treatment of our cloth shop." Coriander said.

As soon as she heard the "treatment", Shi Lan's heart moved, and she put her eyes on the agreement again, no matter how hard she opened her eyes and saw it, she didn't recognize a few words.

She blushed and handed the agreement to Coriander, "What is written on it, you read it to me." ”

Coriander didn't answer, and opened his mouth to say: "In addition to the fixed salary every month, you can also get a commission, as long as it is embroidery from your hands, every time you sell it, you can get a commission of three percent, that is, if you sell one hundred silver dollars, you will have three silver dollars in your account." Oh, your fixed salary is not filled, you discuss this with the boss of the canal. ”

Hearing this, Shi Lan and Lao Qu were both shocked and couldn't close their mouths. 、

Even if Shi Lan doesn't get a fixed salary, she will get a commission, which is enough for her to make ends meet. It's rare to get such good treatment out there.

She also deliberately mentioned, "There is also your confidentiality obligation above, and the embroidery I let you make must not be known to others before it is made, especially peers." If the embroidery sample I gave you is plagiarized before it is made, your commission for this piece will be gone. ”

I don't know if Shi Lan understood, so I saw her nodding like pounding garlic.

Lao Quguang listened to what coriander root Shilan said, but he didn't have time to take a closer look at the agreement in his hand. He glanced at it roughly. It was discovered that the agreement was intended to be a contractual relationship between him and coriander.

The terms and conditions are very much, more detailed than the contract in Shi Lan's hand.

Coriander told Lao Qu that she didn't need a fixed salary, and the income of the cloth in the future, except for the share that Shi Lan took away, and then put aside the cost, and she would share the rest with Lao Qu.

Shi Lan had no problem, and signed her name on the contract on the spot.

However, Lao Qu was very cautious, and looked at it over and over again while wearing reading glasses, and felt that there was no big problem. I signed it.

Coriander picked up a few satins from the cloth shop and took them away. He said that he would make a few styles and come back in two days.

Lao Qu repeatedly told her not to be lazy again, if she didn't come in two days, he would come to the door. For this reason, he also specially asked for the address of the coriander house.

It didn't take long to leave the cloth shop. Coriander has not yet come out of Xingrong Road. He bumped into Sorachi Aki and the Japanese samurai who often accompanied him.

Kong Zhiqiu is haggling with the vendor in front of the vegetable stall.

When the vendor saw Sora Chiaki's dress, he knew that he was Japanese, and the asking price was a little higher.

Sora Zhiqiu focused on bargaining, and didn't find the coriander that was about to pass by. It was the Japanese samurai next to him who found the coriander, and then said a few words to Sora Chiaki in Japanese.

Kong Zhiqiu turned around and saw Coriander holding two pieces of cloth and about to pass by.

"Miss Lin"

Was she going to ignore him and walk straight over?

That's exactly what the coriander is going to do.

"Yo, Qiusang."

said hello, and Cilantro had no intention of stopping.

"Miss Lin, if it's convenient, please come and sit down at the sushi house below."

Coriander politely refused his sincere invitation, "You're busy, I'm busy." ”

Ignoring the hawker's retention, Kong Zhiqiu strode after the coriander, "Actually, I want to thank Miss Lin"

Coriander didn't appreciate it, "There's no need to say thank you, let's help each other." ”

In this lawsuit between Coriander and Luo Jun, if there is no Kong Zhiqiu to help each other in secret, I am afraid that she will not be able to win.

Because of this, should she be grateful to Sora Zhiqiu?

Sorry, Cilantro isn't in that mood.

Bringing down Luo Jun is also one of Kong Zhiqiu's goals.

They were originally in a relationship of mutual exploitation.

Every time Kong Zhiqiu settles, the clogs on his feet will make a nice sound, not light, not heavy, not fast, not slow, very rhythmic.

Kuchiqiu glanced at the Japanese samurai who was clinging to him, and the latter stood still, and waited until Sorachiqiu and Coriander walked forward for a while, and then he followed not far away, always on guard of his surroundings, and seemed to be full of vigilance.

It's really strange for rich people, since they are so afraid of death, wouldn't it be nice to leave things like buying vegetables to their subordinates.

When you go out with your entourage, do you deliberately show that your identity is different from that of others?

Kong Zhiqiu also looks humble and polite, but he is actually full of arrogance in his bones.

"Has Miss Lin heard about the Locke family?" Sorachiaki's voice was as gentle as a serenade.

Coriander's expression was slightly restrained, revealing a hint of tiredness, "I haven't read the newspaper much lately, so I don't know very well." ”

Since the lawsuit, nine out of ten people who have seen her will mention the lawsuit between her and Luo Jun, and she will hear that she is tired.

What kind of fate Luo Jun will have, isn't it already a sure thing.

Kong Zhiqiu did not tire of it, and said, "Luo Jun let his youngest daughter testify in court for perjury, which angered Inspector General William. Inspector General William is very precious that his niece has lost the support of the French, Luo Jun is equivalent to losing the greatest help, and he probably knows that his general trend has gone, and he resigned yesterday. ”

As expected, the coriander didn't feel fresh when I heard it.

She echoed Sora Chiqiu, "Isn't that what you want?" ”

The position of president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce is finally vacant, so Kong Zhiqiu does not fight for this position, but runs to the street to buy vegetables?

"I think you also know that many people are staring at the position of the president now," Sora Zhiqiu's tone suddenly became meaningful, "That position, even money can't buy it." ”

Cilantro knew what he meant behind this.

He just wanted to say that he himself couldn't sit in that position now, and the rich guys in Rong Ji didn't think about it.

Coriander only pretended not to understand, "Money can make ghosts grind, if you can't buy it, it must be that your bid is not high enough, isn't this the same as when you bought vegetables just now." ”

Kong Zhiqiu grinned, with a hint of pleasure in his voice, "Officialdom is different from vegetable farms. If I can find that painting—"

The slender eyes glanced at the coriander, and Kong Zhiqiu narrowed his eyes slightly, and the dark surging in his eyes flowed, quietly exuding a dangerous aura.

"Miss Lin has a good memory, I don't know if you remember what the painting that made people fight for their heads bleed."

Coriander furrowed her brows, made a headache, and said helplessly: "You are not the first person to ask me like this, how can I say it, I am only good at remembering people's faces and names, and I am not very good at remembering other things." There are so many treasures in Luo Youyou's room, and any one that is taken out is much more eye-catching than a painting on the wall. Eh, blame me for not paying much attention at the time. ”

Disappointment crossed Kong Zhiqiu's eyes, and for him, to sit in that position, it was one less opportunity. And that painting is the biggest help for him to reach the top.

The people in the government are not all fools who see money, those officials are not short of money, they are insatiable but value their own lives more. At present, the situation is in turmoil, especially the revolutionary party, which greatly threatens their position as the masters of the Chinese people. If one day they no longer have a foothold, is it still useful to be greedy for so much money?

Unable to get any valuable news from coriander, Kong Zhiqiu was a little interested.

If he continues to pursue it, he is afraid that it will appear that he has bad intentions for coriander. He could see that although Coriander was not so wary of him, he always kept a distance from him.

Kong Zhiqiu changed the topic at the right time, "Miss Lin, are you holding these cloths?"

Coriander didn't hide it from him, "Make a few cheongsams." ”

Kong Zhiqiu couldn't help but look at Coriander's small body, with suspicion and sympathy in his eyes.

If there is no ******** good figure, a woman will not be able to wear the charm of a cheongsam at all.

From Kong Zhiqiu's eyes, Coriander saw Hongguoguo's contempt, and she suddenly said in annoyance: "It's not me who wears it!" ”

Out of Xingrong Road, Coriander went to the side of the street.

Following her gaze, Kong Zhiqiu saw a young man pulling a rickshaw over.

A smile appeared on Cilantro's face, and she waved her free hand, "Brother-"

Kong Zhiqiu couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the smiling face of coriander, and said in his heart that he always felt that the old-fashioned Miss Lin actually had a time when she laughed innocently.

Coriander pulled the car and ran to them to stop, glanced at Kong Zhiqiu beside Coriander, and saw that the other party was Japanese, but he didn't show any other emotions, just a little jealous.

Coriander wiped her sweat with a sweat towel around her neck.

Without anything else, he urged the coriander, "Hurry up and get in the car, it's so hot, don't bask in the sun." ”

After getting into the car, Coriander said goodbye to Kong Zhiqiu: "Qiusang, then let's go first." ”

Kong Zhiqiu smiled slightly and saluted the Lin family brothers and sisters.

Coriander ran away with coriander, "What does that Japanese do?" ”

"It's a businessman, a chain store." (To be continued.) )
