Chapter 30 The center of gravity goes north
Qiu Huitian was in the invisible and unspeakable trial, but she made a decision: If I can become a thief, I will directly rob her, the ends of the earth, she will not be allowed to die, she will not be allowed to escape, and she must always be by my side until she is happy. If you are not happy in your life, try again in your life. If you are not happy with three lives, try a hundred lives. If you don't become a fairy couple, you will never give up.
If I can't be a thief, I'll be an emperor, a god, and so on, and I must be able to be with her.
If any emperor, immortal, or thief can't become it, then I'll give up and see her happy with others. I will not embarrass her by showing half a word. She is sent, and I will go to her in the fire and water. That's it.
With such determination, he was at peace. For example, the water boiled on the stove for a while, and finally it all turned into water vapor, and then it was quiet.
He heard Lin Dai call Shuangshuang and expected that he must use water, so he called first. Then go get early.
Both refilled the tea, and twisted hot hand towels for Lin Dai and Butterfly Xiaohua. Both of them rubbed their faces and hands, and their spirits were lifted. Lin Dairang Shuangshuang: "You come too." ”
Both peeked at it, Lin Dai's disguise effect was not wiped off by hot water, and she still had a gray and wrinkled face, but it was okay, but she smiled and stayed up all night, only rubbing her face, and it was a jade face, which was more beautiful than other people's makeup, why didn't she make herself ashamed, and after serving them, she hid outside and washed herself.
Die Xiaohua also confessed to Lin Dai: "If you don't sleep all night, it will hurt your appearance." ”
Lin Dai replied: "There are also injuries to you." ”
It's rare for Die Xiaohua to argue with someone so seriously: "Hey! How is this the same? I'm a man. ”
Lin Dai didn't think there was a difference between men and women on this issue.
Is her appearance more important than his? Can't she stay up late? "If I take care of my face and moon, I don't know where my man sleeps. And I depend on him for food, clothing, and daily life. Then I think it's better to have a rough face and rough hands. But I'm sure I know where my rice jars are, they're filled with rice I've earned, and I can keep them. She said.
Butterfly smiled and put her fingers on her forehead, looked at her for a moment, and said, "I think so too." ”
Both of them had finished their rest and came in with breakfast. It is porridge, home-style pickled melon, steamed buns, and cold noodles.
Travelers tend to wake up early, and it is customary for breakfast to be served early. But after all, the proprietress refused to get up in the middle of the night to cook, and there should be some time-consuming things, which were made last night.
Like porridge, it was simmered last night. Bring to a boil again this morning. Not to eat. The buns were also made yesterday, and I opened them again for dinner, and there were leftovers of the same meat and vegetarian meat. Breakfast was hot again.
It doesn't matter if Lin Dai eats. It's always more fragrant than the lunch boxes at convenience stores and frozen dumplings at supermarkets. Butterfly smiles and flowers are not used to eating. I used a small half bowl of hot porridge, but I still looked at the face of the home-cooked pickled melon. I only ate two small slices of pickled melon. In addition, it is to eat cold noodles.
Qiu Huitian also knew that the porridge and steamed buns were not good, so he specially made cold noodles. The noodles are cooked relatively quickly. Then it cooled in the well water, poured it into a large bowl, and mixed with soy sauce and vinegar bean sprouts, minced mustard and seasonings, and it was done, and the flavor was good.
Lin Dai and Die Xiaohua finished eating, and Qiu Huitian and Shuangshuang also ate. Lin Daifang said: "There is something I have to tell you. ”
Qiu Huitian and Shuangshuang knew that they had talked all night, and of course they had something to say. Since I didn't say it before, it shows that it's really a big deal, so it's not in a hurry, and everyone has enough strength to deal with it.
They sat on their knots, waiting to listen.
After hearing Lin Dai's words, they thought that their ears were ringing in the moment: Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, they prefer to go to the tiger mountains?
Oh, there is an old saying: If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger!
If Lin Dai was finally convinced of his plan under Diexiaohua's meticulous and meticulous explanation, then Shuangshuang was attracted to this plan from the beginning.
As for Qiu Huitian, there was only a heart-wrenching voice in his mind: Girl, you really like him, so you believe in everything he says, and you are willing to listen to such a dangerous plan, you are definitely brainwashed by him......
But since Lin Dai has already made a decision, and Qiu Huitian has also decided, before he has the ability to rob her away and give her happiness as Mrs. Zhaizhai, he will listen to her in everything, and go for her in the water and fire.
Then he can only go north!
How do you sing a song? "You, you, you, you, are the devil I can't avoid." Qiu Huitian felt very sad, but at the same time, he was deeply moved by himself.
In this way, Die Xiaohua is still circling around in Beijing, and by the way, she will inquire about some favorable business information. Lin Dai went north first and opened up territory.
Although Qiu Huitian didn't dare to object to Lin Dai's decision, he had to argue with reason at this time: Isn't it too dangerous for a girl to go to that kind of chaotic place?
You must know that the reason why Diexiaohua's business plan is feasible is based on the premise that the other party is still rational and can make trade-offs. But if a beautiful woman throws herself into the wolf's den, what reason do the wolves have to speak of, and what basis do they have for negotiation? That's only a bee that rises up, swallows it and then fast!
As a peerless beauty, Miss Lin can't go to that kind of place. Gone only to add chaos.
As a female man, Lin Dai can.
At that moment, I saw Lin Dai touching his face and said with a smile: "What's the danger of this face?" ”
This time, even Butterfly Xiaohua shook her hand: "Hey, that's not what I said." ”
She changed her appearance, but her bright eyes and her figure were still there. It's getting hotter and hotter, and I'm afraid I won't be able to wrap the things on my body. And on the face, it's just the lowest modification. At best, it changes the color of the dough. It's like a village woman grabbing a handful of pot ashes and smearing it on her face. The potion is just a little longer than pot ash.
Because of the persistence, Die Xiaohua, Qiu Huitian and others looked a little distressed for her. For fear that the color will cause permanent damage. In case, if only a little pigmentation is left, it is also white and flawed, and it can't be saved! How can it not be regretted
In fact, this so-called potion is not a chemical product, and the main ingredient is the juice of a fruit - walnuts.
Have you ever eaten walnuts? The hard one is smashed open with a small hammer, and there are fragrant kernels inside. In fact, this is already processed. Natural walnuts, the kind that have just ripen and fall from the treetops, have green skin. If you peel the green skin with your hands, your hands will turn black, and the black marks will not fade away for many days, until you grow new skin and metabolize the old skin.
The "potion" used by Lin Dai is actually mainly green walnut juice, with a little other auxiliary plant juice to make the effect more "moisturizing and vivid", but it is not permanent after all. Who has heard that after peeling green walnuts, you will become a black hand for the rest of your life?
After Lin Dai asked Aunt Ying, he used it boldly with confidence. When I looked in the mirror after using it, I was crying ugly by myself. I thought that no man would dare to ask about it.
Die Xiaohua and Qiu Huitian both assured her: When it comes to chaos, many men don't look at their faces. I really want that. If Lin Dai's placket is torn open...... Needless to say.
Lin Dai finally agreed, and although she went north, she stayed in a relatively safe place. Shuangshuang and Qiu Huitian will go deeper into the frontier. And if you really go to the front line, it is mainly the robbers who are smiling at the flower. Ying Dalang may also be involved. That's all for later. Even whether Qiu Huitian wants to go to the front line can be discussed later.
In short, Yinggu and Yulanzi and others organized the supply of goods in the south in the rear. Lin Dai went a little north to organize the supply there. Shuangshuang and Qiu Huitian helped establish a logistics line. The robbers went to connect with the front. Butterfly Xiaohua is in charge of gathering intelligence in the capital. This model is so decided for the time being.
Lin Dai was quite satisfied with this model. But she wanted to ask Diexiaohua: "If I don't come to the capital, what will you do?" ”
This question had just turned around in her mind, and before she could ask it, she had the answer herself: Who knew you weren't in the capital?
As Die Xiaohua said, he came to the capital because he thought that Lin Dai was going to enter the palace, and he was worried about Lin Dai, so he had no choice but to make this trip. Lin Dai went out of Beijing and took the line of the Seven Princes with him, which was the front and back feet. How could he have calculated so much?
Now that both of them are safe, they have seized the business opportunity, and they have not wasted time at all, which is the best result. God forbid. Lin Dai opened his mouth, and the words he said were completely different: "Fortunately, I came." ”
Butterfly smiled and said, "Yes." ”
Lin Dai suddenly felt that before he spoke, he might have also turned around and changed a few layers in his mind. In the end, she finally agreed to her, and turned it into a simple two words "yes".
If you extrapolate backwards from this simple answer, you have to listen to his heart, and how many nine-song paths do you have to cross?
Lin Dai suddenly felt a little tired. She smiled at Diehua and said, "Be careful in the capital yourself." ”
This time Butterfly Xiaohua didn't answer, but just raised her hand and imprinted a light kiss on her gray and black skin soaked in juice.
The strategic measures of the two commercial industries of Salt Merchants and Ahanda have been readjusted together. In one sentence, eight words can be summed up: high-end southwest, traditional north.
The departments involved in more high-end products have all moved to the southwest region, why? Because after the war became tight, there was a fear of turmoil in the north, so the baggage was moved south to avoid losses. And the southeast is originally a rich land, which is not easy to enter. The southwest is the place where a large number of industries were obtained after negotiating a private salt business with Xirong, which is suitable for becoming a new commercial base. Not to mention that because of their hatred of the Hu people, even Rong Shang was resisted by some extremely patriotic forces in the Central Plains. The territory spit out by the Rong merchants, and the merchants of the Central Plains want to take over. The southeast has its own traditional large merchants firmly controlled, and they themselves are all red-eyed, and Ahan Dahe salt merchants will focus on grabbing the southwest.
As for the traditional industries, such as food, textiles, and metal utensils, the center of gravity has shifted to the north. This is to implement the strategic proposition of Diexiaohua licking blood with a knife, and to exchange these for money in the war zone.
The paper industry, which was dominated by both sides, was also going to be moved to the southwest. Everyone thinks: people are panicking, who still uses instant paper? Those middle-class and wealthy families in the southwest can continue to develop. (To be continued......)
