Chapter 31: Joy and Sorrow

In order to facilitate Song Lingyue's actions, Chen Tingfeng gave Song Lang a sum of money, saying that he wanted Song Lingyue to accompany him for a few days, and in the future, he would not let her appear in Jin Kaimen, unless he was in need.

Song Lang felt strange in his heart, it was not uncommon for Miss Wu to be taken out by rich people to be raised for a period of time, but he knew Song Lingyue, she had always valued her innocence, and she would never sell herself for money.

I wanted to ask Song Lingyue to see if she had encountered difficulties, but I didn't expect Nicholas Chen to be decisive and take Song Lingyue away directly from the box, without even giving them a chance to say goodbye, Song Lang didn't dare to argue with Nicholas Chen, so he had to swallow his anger for the time being.

When Song Lingyue returned home, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, she went to the bathroom to take a shower, wrapped her wet hair in a towel, and lay down on the bed tiredly.

Nicholas Chen told her that she didn't have to go to Jinkaimen these days, and without asking, she knew that he must have used money to buy her working hours in Jinkaimen, and I don't know what outsiders would guess, maybe they would think that she had also joined the selling party, and it would be difficult to go back to the arrogant and lofty moon when she went back in the future.

"That's amazing!"

Song Lingyue muttered to herself, she had to admire Nicholas Chen's methods, in this way, whether she still has a reputation depends on Nicholas Chen's mood.

In other words, if her things don't do well and Nicholas Chen is not satisfied, as long as he doesn't explain, everyone will think that she has followed Nicholas Chen, whether she is innocent or not is very important to a dance lady, especially her, who is the first lady in Kyoto, whether she is innocent or not, it is absolutely a world of difference.

Although Hua Xiangrong has started to make money, it is only the beginning, and most of it is relying on the connections that Nicholas Chan brought her, once she loses it, she is nothing, maybe not as good as the beginning, Nicholas Chen This time, he completely pinched her in the palm of his hand.

Thinking about it, Song Lingyue can't think of a way to get rid of Nicholas Chen, he is a person who is moody and angry, people can't figure out his temper, but as soon as he makes a move, people have no way back, such a person is no less terrifying than Xia Yeqing, and it is definitely not what she can deal with, what should I do?

After tossing and turning like a baked cake in the middle of the night, Song Lingyue couldn't think of a good idea, so she couldn't stand it and fell asleep.

This sleep lasted until the next day's sun, until the maid called her to answer the phone, Song Lingyue got up from the bed, did not change her clothes, wore pajamas, fluffy hair, and went to the telephone room.

The phone call was made by Song Lang, but it was to ask her the truth of the matter, Song Lingyue naturally didn't dare to say that she was forced, so she could only say it according to Nicholas Chen's instructions, Song Lang believed it was true, and couldn't help but feel a pity, and at the end she still told her on the phone that she must pay attention to her body, Song Lingyue listened impatiently, and simply hung up the phone.

Back in the bedroom, the maid had already brought lunch, Song Lingyue hurriedly took two mouthfuls of food, dressed up in men's clothes, and went to Hua Xiangrong by car, whether it was secretly controlled by Nicholas Chen or not, Hua Xiangrong was run by her, and there were so many people waiting for her to eat, she had to maintain it well.

The rickshaw stopped at the door of Hua Xiangrong, Song Lingyue tightened the hat on her head, and pressed the mustache on her lips to make sure that there was no problem, so she swaggered inside.

Hua Xiangrong's shop door curtain was opened, and two women came out together, wearing a shawl of mink, perming fashionable curly hair, with decent makeup and extraordinary temperament.

Tailor Xie was sent to the road outside before turning back, walked to Song Lingyue, arched his hand, led her inside, and said: "Brother Rong, these two wives are here to order dresses, and they have ordered ten sets at once, and they have to use good materials, and they have to pay a deposit of 1,000 yuan, which is a big business." ”

Song Lingyue asked, "These two wives belong to the official family?" I'm very particular about seeing through it. ”

Tailor Xie nodded and replied, "Yes, one is the wife of the newly appointed director of the National Police Agency, and the other is the wife of the newly appointed director of taxation, both of whom are distinguished guests. ”

"Oh, since it is a distinguished customer, when we go back to deliver the goods, send two more good silk scarves over, although they are not lacking, but this is our heart, they will remember our good."

Song Lingyue admonished, Tailor Xie answered, the two entered the shop one after the other, the people inside were busy, seeing her coming, they stopped what they were doing and greeted her, Song Lingyue responded, and took Tailor Xie to the back.

The room at the back has expanded, and there is a separate room set out as Song Lingyue's office, and the others are still used as rest rooms, one for men and one for each woman.

The furnishings of the office are very simple, there is only a table, on which there are paper, pens and ink, and a few ornaments, and a chair at the back, which is Song Lingyue sitting, and there are sofas and coffee tables by the door.

Song Lingyue sat behind the desk, let Tailor Xie on the sofa, asked about the progress of the clothes, and made sure that the goods could be delivered on time, so she put her mind at ease and told him to buy more delicious meals, not to wronged everyone, so she shifted the topic to the two noble ladies again.

"The clothes of these two official wives should also be made in a hurry, and when the delivery comes, I will come over and go to their house with you to deliver them." Song Lingyue said.

Tailor Xie looked up at her and said in surprise: "Why does Brother Rong want to deliver it in person?" Are you afraid that they will not speak and offend the two official wives? ”

Song Lingyue shook her head, leaned forward, rested her elbows on the table, and said seriously: "I'm not afraid of this, I don't worry about them doing things." I think so, the reason why our business is good now is because it is difficult to order clothes during the New Year, some people are because of relationships, and some people are because they can't get lined up in those famous big stores, so they come to us. ”

"Once this season passes, the business will fade down, after all, we are newly opened, no matter how good the craftsmanship is, there is no way to compare with those old shops, and the uniforms of this police department, every year the season has to be made new, if we can take this list, there will be a stable job, even if it is in the off-season, there is income to deal with."

"That's right, it's just ......" Tailor Xie hesitated.

Song Lingyue asked, "It's just what?" If you have something to say, you can solve the problem together! ”

Tailor Xie said: "Your idea is good, but you are new to this industry, I'm afraid you don't know, these clothes of government and official departments are all undertaken by fixed old stores, and they have been cooperating for many years, if you want to take over, it is equivalent to grabbing business with old stores, which is not easy." ”

Song Lingyue leaned on the back of the chair, lifted Erlang's legs like a man, stretched out a finger and shook it, and said lightly: "You don't understand this!" Why do I only talk to these two official wives and nothing else? It is because the police chief is newly appointed, and the tax secretary is also newly appointed. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Tailor Xie asked puzzled.

Song Lingyue continued to explain to him, "As the saying goes, once a son of heaven is a courtier, the director and director of this department are new, and the procurement location of this department must be replaced with a new one. ”

"Although we are a new store, I have compared the craftsmanship of several stores in Kyoto, our craftsmanship is not worse than theirs, the style of clothes is much more novel than theirs, and most importantly, our service is better than theirs, but our reputation is not as big as theirs, but I believe that as long as we uphold the belief to do it, Hua Xiangrong will definitely become the hottest clothing store in Kyoto."

Tailor Xie is just an honest tailor, he just wants to earn some money to support his family, in addition to making clothes in his duty, he won't have too many ideas, Song Lingyue's impassioned words didn't arouse much resonance in him, but Song Lingyue is the boss, and he still has to show support for what he says, and nodded with a smile, which can be regarded as encouragement.

Song Lingyue also saw that he was unambitious, and he might not be able to understand it if he explained more, so he simply didn't explain, and instructed him to take her with him for delivery, so he got up and went out to check the fabric, and Tailor Xie still accompanied him.

The fabrics used by Hua Xiangrong are all imported from the cloth village, and with this extra layer, the cost is high, not to mention, if the cloth village is out of stock, it will also affect her progress here.

Song Lingyue has the heart to open a cloth village, in this way, can ensure a sufficient supply of goods, but also one more layer of profits, the Song family used to produce fabrics, but also do import and export, she knows a little, plus the knowledge she learned at the beginning, not only can be used to design clothes, there is no problem in identifying fabrics, and the store can be completely coped.

It's just that things are complicated right now, and Nicholas Chen is staring at her back, she doesn't dare to stretch her hand too far, in case he hits it down with another stick, her efforts these days will be in vain.

After checking the fabric, and determining the style of the clothes with the drawing, Song Lingyue left the store, there was no need to go to Jinkaimen at night, but she had to find a way to go to Miaoyin Garden, whether she went to Xia Yeqing or not, she had to run to block Nicholas Chen's mouth, as for the real plan, she hadn't thought about it yet.

Xia Yeqing is bound not to see this, once she is recognized by him, she will be dead, but if she has to find a way to get close to him, it seems that she can only use the identity of Young Master Rong, I hope it will not be exposed, and she will not be killed by him.

That night, Song Lingyue was sleeping in Zhengxiang, and the door was knocked, she opened the door with sleepy eyes, but the maid said that a tailor Xie asked someone to pass the word, saying that Hua Xiangrong had an accident and asked her to hurry over.

Song Lingyue dressed up as fast as she could, and rushed to Hua Xiangrong, but before she arrived at the place, she saw billowing smoke rising into the sky from a distance, and Hua Xiangrong was on fire.

Song Lingyue sat on the rickshaw all of a sudden, no wonder the ancients often said that happiness is sad, she was still ambitious during the day, thinking that this shop would be the same as her, popular all over Kyoto, but I didn't expect that before the night passed, God poured a basin of ice water on her, which completely froze her.
