Chapter 265: Blank Check
(Thanks to the reward of the "Shaded Cold Purple" baby)
In the early morning of the next day, Coriander unexpectedly saw Uncle Zheng and Su Lijun in Hanhai Park, but she was a little surprised that Su Liwen was actually there.
Sullivan learned from Uncle Zheng that Coriander would go to Hanhai Park every morning for morning exercises, so he made a special trip here this morning to block her, express his sincere apologies to Coriander for his attitude yesterday, and once again issued a sincere request, hoping that Coriander could help his father clear his grievances and get out of prison.
His apologies, parsley is acceptable.
But his request really made Coriander helpless.
I don't know if it was instigated by Sullivan, and Su Lijun also joined the ranks of the request.
"My father really didn't kill anyone," Sullivan always believed in this, "Please Miss Lin must believe me!" β
Heh, as long as she believes it, will Su Qinghuan be innocent in the eyes of the world? She doesn't have such a big face to represent all of humanity!
"My sister is very powerful, my sister will definitely save my daddy from the bad guys, right?" The young man's tears are pitiful, and looking at them makes people's hearts tug together.
Su Lijun also said yesterday that he wanted to become stronger and save his father from the bad guys, and now he is counting on him like his brother.
What the hell did Sullivan teach his brother?
Cilantro twisted the sweat towel into a ball with both hands, and if she didn't grab something in her hands, she was really afraid that she would not be able to hold back the impulse and pounce on Su Livan's neck.
"Please believe me, I really can't help you! I won the lawsuit with Luo Jun, and you are invincible to me? Please, keep your eyes open and take a good look. I'm just a powerless and powerless pauper! The grievances between me and Luo Jun are just a fuse, and I am just a pawn in the hands of others. Just like some people wanted to see your father step down back then, there are people who want Luo Jun to step down now. The eldest young master who has no worries about food and clothing, recognize the reality, stop holding meaningless illusions, I am not your lifesaver! β
"You can't expect me to rob the prison!" Coriander laughed angrily at her own thoughts, and couldn't see Sullivan's low-lying and cowardly appearance, she sighed and said a few more words, "I don't understand." You can put down your eldest young master's shelf and run to me for help. Why can't you ask Rong Ying out to have a good talk? You're all adults, and you're not unreasonable, so why can't you sit down calmly and talk about it? β
Uncle Zheng spoke on the side, respectfully to Sullivan. "Great young master. Miss Lin has a point. β
"That's all I have to say. Hello do it yourself. Cilantro put the sweat towel back on her neck and started slowly.
When she got home for dinner, she rushed out the cheongsam she had cut last night. I took it to a cloth shop that had not yet opened.
There is really a subtle fate between her and Kong Zhiqiu.
On the way, Coriander collided with Sora Chiqiu again.
Coriander still had plenty of time in her mind, so she responded to Kong Zhiqiu's invitation and went to a teahouse on Xingrong Road to cool off.
The cool chrysanthemum tea entrance, the coriander suddenly felt that the whole person came to life again.
It's so hot outside.
"Qiusang, I'm so embarrassed to spend money on you every time we meet." Coriander holds the banana fan in her hand and fans herself to cool herself.
Sorachiaki is dressed in a loose light-colored kimono, adhering to the calm and natural coolness, and seems to be not affected by the climate at all.
"Miss Lin is very busy, and it is an honor to be able to invite Miss Lin."
Coriander looked a little proud, but her mouth was modest, and she waved her hand and said: "It's been a little busy recently, and you can't talk about it." β
"Miss Lin must have paid attention to the recent news, a fake at the auction of the Calamus Academy has stirred up the Shanghai market, and I have not heard of any of the tobacco houses and casinos seized by the national government as the liaison station of the revolutionary party. The revolutionary party is full of arrogant and self-righteous people, how can they use such a smoky place as a liaison station, Miss Lin, you say yes. β
"How do I know that?" Coriander absentmindedly hinted that Sora Chiaki himself was not the slightest interested in what he was saying.
"Then Miss Lin, do you know how much the Rongji Chamber of Commerce paid to the Economic and Trade Department in order to get the position of the president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce?"
Coriander suddenly understood, "I dare you invite me to tea today, I want to find out from me, but I didn't expect that the Economic and Trade Department would clearly mark the position of the president, tsk, these officials are really greedy." β
Hawkers, since ancient times, the matter of selling officials and lords has not been less common among feudal magnates.
But this kind of thing, the small economic and trade department really dares to do it, I am afraid that there is also a larger force behind the economic and trade department.
Kong Zhiqiu's eyes flashed with admiration, holding the teacup in a dignified posture, and praised the coriander:
"Miss Lin is really a smart person, and she can understand it at a glance." He added, "Nowadays, many people are secretly bidding for the position of president. β
The battle for official positions is turbulent.
As long as you have money, you can sit in the position of president, so that the real virtuous people are buried.
Tsk, this society is too dark.
The government is getting more and more corrupt day by day.
Coriander sighed for a while, sighed in her heart, and then said to Kong Zhiqiu regretfully: "You have to know Rong Ji's bid, I can't help you with this." She spread her hands out, shrugged her shoulders and said playfully, "Because I don't know either." β
Sora Zhiqiu hid the disappointment in his eyes.
Rong Ji is his strongest opponent in this competition.
He must know the hole cards of Rong Ji so that he will not lose so badly.
Coriander has no status in the Rongji Chamber of Commerce, but Kong Zhiqiu can see that the position of coriander in Fujiyantang's heart is not ordinary, and it doesn't seem to be very difficult to hear about Rongji from this girl.
As long as her mouth isn't so tight.
Kong Zhiqiu had a hint of treachery in his eyes, and he wanted to make a small calculation in front of coriander, once he was detected, he was afraid that it would backfire and disgust her, so it was better to be more frank and spread it out and explain it to her.
He pushed a blank check in front of Cilantro, and his smile added a hint of meaning.
Looking at the blank check, Cilantro was stunned for a moment. "Qiusang, what does this mean?"
"Miss Lin is a smart person and should understand." Kong Zhiqiu took out the pen he was carrying, pulled off the cap, and held it with both hands, "As long as Miss Lin is willing to help with this, the amount on this can be filled in as you like." β
The coriander exploded like an electric shock, and the whole person almost fell off the bench.
She hurriedly pushed the blank check back, retracting her hot hand. Panic.
"Autumn mulberry. I treat you as a friend, don't hurt me! Coriander trembled, "I still want to live a little longer, this tea." That's all we have to drink. I'll take my leave. β
She picked up the baggage. Flash people as fast as you can.
I didn't expect Kong Zhiqiu to actually play this trick for her!
wants to buy her to be an undercover agent, does the Japanese think she hasn't lived long enough?
Once the three Rong Ji knew that she was working hard for the Japanese, she didn't expect what the consequences would be.
Think about how sensitive Fujihiko is to her contact with Sorachiaki. If he knew that she was bought off by Kong Zhiqiu with a blank check, he wouldn't be able to spare her. No, she will never be spared!
Coriander doesn't want to end up dying miserably, she hasn't lived enough in this life.
When I arrived at the cloth line, the coriander was inevitably counted by the old canal.
The old guy never thought that the number left by this girl for him would be Fuji Yantang's contact information, and as soon as he connected the phone yesterday, he was so scared that he almost flashed his pee.
This girl is so bold that she actually uses Fujihikodo's office as a free phone booth!
Of the three cheongsams in which the coriander was placed in the cloth shop earlier, two of them have been completed.
The embroidery on the robe is not bad, and there is not a trace of flaw.
Coriander was very satisfied, very satisfied.
Seeing that she was satisfied, Shi Lan was very happy and had a sense of accomplishment, "These two cheongsams will definitely make the people who wear them shine!" β
"Even if you don't wear them, that person will shine just as well." Coriander muttered quietly.
Jiang Yingxue's name as the "Snow Emperor" was not obtained by a few good-looking clothes.
Coriander didn't ignore the tiredness on Shi Lan's face and the dark shadow on her eyes.
She cared: "Don't force yourself too much, don't embroider at night in the future, don't burn your body and eyes." β
Shi Lan's heart swelled with warmth, and Nuo Nuo responded, "Eh! β
In fact, Lao Qu also said the same thing to her several times.
Both the big boss and the small boss are so considerate, and Shi Lan really feels that it is her blessing to meet such a good boss. What's more, she still has such good benefits here, I'm afraid that ten embroidery girls will rarely get such a good remuneration for her alone.
Coriander handed over the new cheongsam and design drawings to Shi Lan, and then sat with Lao Qu drinking herbal tea and talking about business.
"Boss Qu, have you been to other shops in the past few days?"
"I turned it, I saw it, and I asked it." Lao Qu smiled like Maitreya Buddha.
Coriander knew that he was losing money.
However, this also shows that Lao Qu is very satisfied with the clothes she designed.
Lao Qu waved his hand at coriander, saying disappointed words in his mouth, but his expression could not hide his smugness:
"Most of the cheongsams in the shops are not good, cutting corners, shoddy, old style, and poor quality. I have also been to the famous beauty shop, the quality and feel of the material are very good, the style is mostly similar, and the pattern is not as new as your design. With you in charge, our cloth shop will definitely be able to make a name for itself in the future, and maybe it will be even more famous than Beauty Fang in the future. β
Coriander took a sip of herbal tea and smashed her mouth, crossing her legs and bored, "I've heard you say for a long time, but I still haven't heard the point." β
Lao Qu looked at her with round eyes, looking a little funny, "What I'm talking about is not the point, so what else is the point?" β
Coriander rubbed her fingers, and the money fan was confident, "Money, money, money, money is the point!" β
Money is all that matters.
At this point, Lao Qu is noncommittal.
He smells the same as coriander, one big and one small, just two money fans.
He raised the back of his hand and wiped his nose, looking a little stupid.
Coriander cocked her nose and raised her chin, and said unashamedly: "Of course I know that the clothes I designed myself are better than those sold by other houses, look at the style I designed, look at the materials I choose, look at the embroidery of Shilan, which one can compare?" Beauty Place? One day we will trample under our feet! β
No matter how good a thing is, it is just a commodity, and if it is a commodity, it should have a suitable price.
Coriander wanted to know, and the two cheongsams were taken out. What kind of price should she sell at so that both parties to the transaction do not feel at a loss.
Lao Qu said: "The cheongsams sold outside are cheap and expensive, needless to say, the cheongsam in the beauty shop is similar to the material we use, and the cheapest cheongsam they have there also costs two or three oceans, and the new ones cost seven or eight oceans, and the custom-made ones are more expensive." I think that with the two bodies we have made, it is not expensive to sell for ten oceans each. β
Coriander touched her chin and repeated, "A piece of ten oceans......
From the seller's point of view, this price is quite acceptable.
With her current purchasing power, she spent ten oceans to buy a fig leaf. She is a million unwilling.
Lao Qu slapped the table and solemnly warned the coriander. "You take the cheongsam and sell it, I don't care who you sell it to, you can't swallow the money from the sale, we have an agreement!"
Coriander brushed away her nose and the hand that followed home. Clarify yourself righteously. "Am I like that kind of selfish villain! I said Boss Qu. We've known each other for so long, and you still don't know me? β
Regarding the character of coriander, Lao Qu is not at ease at all. Whoever makes her all day long is that unreliable virtue.
Lao Qu's half-believing eyes hit the coriander deeply.
Sometimes she's scheming, but can't she believe it?
Coriander still has a little bit of discipline in her heart, but it's hard for outsiders to say.
For the sake of profit, those merchants can't guarantee that they won't do anything to lose their integrity.
In addition to coriander's character and temperament, this is also one of Lao Qu's worries.
Lao Qu suddenly lost his temperament just now, and became worried, and glanced around the cloth, and the folds between his eyebrows deepened.
Coriander and Shi Lan, two girls with good skills, live in his small cloth shop, and they are really wronged.
He patted his thigh and sighed, "I'm worried...... I'm worried that the clothes of our cloth shop will be sold well. He said in his heart, "Now everything can be imitated, two days ago the whole Shanghai market was still making a fuss because of a fake painting, our small cloth shop is not better than the clothing manufacturers who do big business outside, if our clothes are imitated by them, mass production, won't they make a lot of money?" β
That's really a problem.
Thinking that his painstaking design had become the fruit of labor that others used to make money, Coriander was a little unwilling.
Coriander rolled her eyes and counted it in her heart.
She approached Lao Qu, "Otherwise, Boss Qu, you can find a way to customize a batch of clothing tags and keep them for later use." β
"Clothing tags? How can we use that kind of thing. "Lao Qu is reluctant to spend money on this.
He believes that formal things like clothing tags are the logos of big manufacturers, and they can't use them in small cloth shops.
"Don't underestimate the role of clothing tags, tags are a kind of anti-counterfeiting signs, but also represent a brand image, but also a kind of print advertising. As soon as others see the tag on the clothes, they know that the clothes are from our cloth store. β
Coriander explained the role of clothing tags to Lao Qu.
Lao Qu didn't understand it after hearing this, and came to the conclusion that clothing tags have great benefits.
He should make a decision about this matter, and will rush to produce a batch of clothing tags before the opening of the cloth store.
Next, Coriander discussed the decoration layout of the cloth shop with Lao Qu.
After the afternoon, the sun was not so poisonous, and Cilantro went back with her clothes.
After going back, she admired the embroidery pictures on the two cheongsams, and felt a little gloomy in her heart.
The embroidery on the cheongsam is embroidered with high-quality silk embroidery thread, the silk embroidery thread is the most suitable for satin, the color is bright, the brilliance is dazzling, but there are also great defects, this kind of flower thread is low in strength and easy to scratch, not washable and not sunfast.
Unconsciously thinking of the silkworm he raised, Coriander dropped the cheongsam and ran to the wall to open the shoebox.
The silkworms she raised have grown up a bit and are moving towards the adult stage, and each silkworm begins to fade, but in a different shade.
These silkworms are particularly edible, and these less than a hundred silkworm babies have eaten most of the feed she makes.
When she got back, she had to go to the riverbank wharf to collect some mulberry leaves.
glanced out of the window under the scorching sun, and coriander lay on the bed and sighed in her heart-
Eh, it's so hot, I really don't want to go out.
β¦β¦
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Coriander went to work at Baiyue Gate on time.
At this point, Baiyuemen has just opened for business, but Ma Feng has been waiting for her here for a long time.
Since Coriander took over the file. Ma Feng's attitude towards her is simply a 180-degree change, with a difference of 108,000 miles before and after.
In the past, he was either frowning or raising his eyes at Cilantro, but now he was attentive to her and listened to her dispatch.
Ma Feng roared and wondered if the coriander had seen any clues.
Coriander raised her hand to stop him and asked, "I'll tell you when I'm done with my own business." β
"What's the matter with you?" Listening to his tone, can't she have her own business if she dares to love coriander?
"I have something to do with Jiang Yingxue."
Ma Feng grabbed her, "Eh, that woman won't come so early, let's talk about our affairs first." β
Ma Feng dragged the coriander to the courtyard behind Baiyue Gate.
Fujihikodo, who was coming downstairs, saw them pulling and pulling, and he didn't feel good in his heart. At the same time, I was also puzzled. When did the relationship between the two people who are most disagreeable on weekdays become so good?
God is mysterious, no, he has to follow and see.
As soon as he avoided the eyes and ears around him, Ma Feng couldn't wait to ask, "How is it?" Did you see any clues? β
Coriander was about to speak. Just listen to a leisurely low, magnetic voice sound:
"What clues?"
Coriander and Ma Feng were both shocked.
Fujihiko Tang saw them like this. The smile was as warm as the sunshine in March, "I'm not a ghost, why are you scared like this?" β
Coriander and Ma Feng glanced at each other. At the same time, he laughed awkwardly.
"Where is it, the second master, you are too handsome, too earth-shattering, it is our mortal little hearts that can't bear your otherworldly handsomeness!"
Ma Feng looked at the flamboyant coriander incredulously, how ...... he was How I want this girl to use such lines on him! He is the most beautiful man in Shanghai!
Ma Feng accidentally slipped out of his heart, "Can you also say the line to me just now?" β
Fujihiko Tang reached out in front of them and snapped his fingers twice, "Eh, you guys stop me." What are you two investigating behind my back? β
Coriander and Ma Feng looked at each other and secretly encouraged each other.
The coercion of the second master of the vine became more and more pressing, and the oppressive people could hardly breathe.
Coriander continued to gag, "It's a really good day today, Ma Sanye and I just came out to enjoy the splendid scenery in July." β
Ma Sanye pointed to the blue sky and the white moon and the setting sun with a bright face, and echoed: "Yes, yes, the weather is so good today!" β
The more contrived and hypocritical they are, the more Fujihiko can see the strangeness and clues from them.
In front of his second master, if he wanted to hide the fox's tail, it was impossible.
"Don't say yes." Fujihikodo's eyes were empty, and there was a danger in his eyes.
Ma Feng shrank his neck sharply and turned his head to glance at the direction of the back door.
How many years of brother, Fujihiko Tang still doesn't know him?
With a glance at Ma Feng, he knew what his second brother was going to do!
"Someoneβ"
Fuji Yantang fell, and Bo Xi came and brought a few people to appear.
"What do you have to say from the second master?"
"Tie these two up for me."
The second master gave an order, who dared not obey?
Several people rushed up and quickly subdued Ma Feng.
Someone also said: "Third master, this is the second master's order, don't blame us." β
Ma Feng knew that it was useless to beg them to scare them, so he shouted at Fuji Yantang: "Fuji Yantang, we are brothers, you can't treat me like this!" Beware of me suing my eldest brother! β
Seeing that Ma Feng was tied up with five flowers, the coriander who was dodging Bo Xi's pursuit almost couldn't straighten his waist with a smile.
Like a monkey, she jumped up and down in the courtyard, and it was impossible to catch her.
Bo Xilai was tired and sweaty, and he was even more out of breath.
Why do you have such a tiring errand?
The second master might as well have someone tie him up happily.
I hadn't seen Bo Xi reach the corner of the coriander for a long time, Fuji Yantang couldn't stand it anymore, and stretched out his hand, "Give me the rope." β
Bo Xi couldn't ask for it, so he hurriedly put the hemp rope in Fuji Yantang's hand as soon as possible.
Fujihiko took the rope, made a circle at one end of the rope, and picked up a circle in the air.
Coriander was so tired that she hid in the distance and yelled at Fujihiko to express her dissatisfaction, "I said Fujihiko, are you a three-year-old child, is it fun to play like this?" β
Ma Feng, who was tied to the sun and had a dry mouth, made a crying expression and persuaded Coriander, "I said don't add fuel to the fire, okay!" β
The fire at the city gate had affected the fish in the pond, and he was the poor little fish who had been innocently killed, and now he was in dire need of the nourishment of the sweet spring.
He wants to see how long this girl can last when Second Master Fuji goes into battle in person.
Fujihiko Tang was tired of it, playing a game of horse with coriander, not to mention that he didn't give it a chance.
"Don't you like the weather today, I'm just helping you get closer and closer to the beautiful scenery today."
Coriander hurriedly waved her hand, "No need, really no need......
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a flicker in front of her eyes, and when she looked at it, she saw Fujihikodo's rope loop in the air at a high speed.
Coriander subconsciously jumped back, reached out to catch the rope loop, and grabbed one end of the rope with Fujihikodo.
Fog grass, this rope is several meters, where did such a long rope come from!
Coriander didn't have time to sigh, and saw Fujihikodo's hand up and down.
He threw it up and down, and a force slammed into the coriander in a wave-like trajectory along the five-meter-long hemp rope.
Coriander felt a sharp blow from the hand that was holding the rope, and the loop fell off from the palm of the hand that had fallen into paralysis.
Fujihiko Tang tugged, and the rope loop that had fallen off from Coriander's hand returned to his hand before it hit the ground.
It's really a good rope trick!
This man really wanted to tie her up.
Coriander is going to cry, can we stop being so heavy?
"Second master, second master," Coriander raised her hands to make a surrender form, and shouted with a broken face, "It's none of my business, it's really not my business!" It was the third master who suspected that Shaoqing had brought him a green hat, and asked me to check if Shaoqing was stealing a man outside, and he was embarrassed to tell you, so he asked me to help investigate......"
When Ma Feng heard this, he felt very uncomfortable, but now that he wanted to hide the past, he could only echo and continue this lie:
"That's the way it is. Yantang, let me go! β
Fuji Yantang couldn't tell if Coriander was lying, could he still not understand He Shaoqing's character?
Shaoqing loves his second brother so much, how can he steal people outside?
The frost on Fujihikodo's face was so cold and hard that even the hot sunlight that scorched his skin could not melt.
"I don't make up a good reason to lie, I see that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin."
Extorting confessions by torture is the fastest and most effective method.
He used the twine as a whip and threw it on the ground with a snap, splashing up a puff of dry dust, leaving a half-knuckle-deep whip mark on the ground.
Coriander shrank her neck in fright, thinking that if she was pumped on her this time, wouldn't her white and tender skin be peeled open?
Coriander wanted to cry without tears, "Can we not play like this?" β
"I want to play like this." Fujihiko Tang looked tired of this, and smiled with a smile on the rope loop, "Do you get in obediently, or I will put it on you, you choose." β
Coriander asked weakly, "Is there a third option?" β
Fujihiko seemed to have a good time, glanced at Ma Feng, who was wilted by the sun, and snorted lightly, "Come with me to the office." β
Coriander wiped her sweat and breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as he arrived at the office, Ma Feng took a few sips of herbal tea with a cup. The cup has bottomed out, and he is still unsatisfied.
It was past six o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun outside was still so poisonous that it was about to shed a layer of skin on him.
In the office, there were only three of them.
Fuji Yantang forced her to look at coriander and questioned her: "I heard that Su Liwen, the eldest young master of the Su family, has found you?" β
"Oh, that's the case."
"That's what happened!"
Coriander said at the same time as Ma Feng.
How could Fuji Yantang not hear Ma Feng's words with obvious relief.
He raised his eyebrows and glanced back and forth at the two who were hiding something, "Could it be that you have something else to hide from me?" β
Coriander glanced at Ma Feng and scolded secretly: There is not enough success and more than failure!
Ma Feng doesn't know that Fujihikodo's ears and nose are smarter than dogs? As long as he lets out a loud fart, even if it is 108,000 miles away, his brother with a different surname can hear the sound and smell the stench. (To be continued.) )
