Chapter 94: Are You Happy?
"Director Bai."
Magnolia looked up and saw a guy push the door in and put down a jet-black ring: "They're back." ”
The ring was rusty and inlaid with a pattern that was vaguely recognizable as a four-leaf clover, and it seemed to be a bargain made of pig iron, but Magnolia looked at it carefully for a moment, put it on the ring finger of her right hand, and asked, "I see." ”
When the man heard this, Magnolia took out his pocket watch and looked at it, it was only 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and he continued to work at the desk.
Just by hearing the name, many people will think that he is a woman, or a delicate man, but in fact it is not far off: he is indeed a handsome man with a rather feminine appearance. At the beginning, he was able to get Jing Zhengwei's employment, but he directly ignored the pre-stage of being a coolie, and was in charge of business at the beginning, of course, the reason was not that he was good at arithmetic and could write and ink, but that he was good-looking.
Of course, Jing Zhengwei wouldn't do anything to him, but just sent him to negotiate business with the heads of other chambers of commerce. Good-looking people can always be treated preferentially, and good-looking men are even more so, some people may think that handsome guys are useless to men, and even arouse men's jealousy.
If the handsome guy is your roommate, your superior, and his status is similar to yours, and then he is superior to you by virtue of his appearance, of course you will be jealous; But if the handsome guy is asking for you and has a lower status than you, then your mentality will change - you will have a crush on him, and even want to conquer him.
Why do men want to control power, to be consuls, to be emperors, to be heads of the house? This is actually a manifestation of the desire to conquer - conquering other men can also give people pleasure. The principle is the same, beautiful women will attract coveting, and beautiful men will of course attract conquest.
All in all, Magnolia has made a lot of money for Jing Zhengwei, win-win cooperation with foreign countries, and proper arrangements internally, he can become the director of 'Weiling' Haimao, which is well deserved, and no one is unconvinced.
When the pocket watch rang at 6 o'clock in the evening, Magnolia packed up the papers, pushed the door and walked out, and the guys all greeted him when they saw him along the way: "Hello Director Bai." ”
"Sixth uncle, hurry up and go home for dinner, your big fat boy is waiting for you."
"Hello Director Bai!"
"Brother Feng, don't go to the red lantern when you get the money this month, leave some money to marry a daughter-in-law!"
"Hello Director Bai!"
"Xiao Chen, you've worked hard to keep vigil tonight."
……
Magnolia greeted them one by one with a smile and urged them to leave early after finishing their work. When passing by the boss's office, he glanced inside and found that the light was still on, so he knocked respectfully on the door: "Childe." ”
"Come in."
Bai Yulan pushed the door in and saw that Childe was holding a copy and reading, while the woman he bought from Xiang Xuehai was sitting in the boss's chair and wearing glasses, as if she was reading the order, and said with a smile: "Childe, Miss Qinglan, I'm going to go home for dinner, don't work so hard for the two of you." ”
After a pause, Magnolia said euphemistically: "Seeing the two of us in high positions but so hardworking, we can't help but feel ashamed, and we want to work more and give Weiling a little more strength." ”
"Well, indeed," said Childe, closing the book, "how dare they go if we don't go...... How much work remains to be done? ”
"One more thing, I'll wait a minute......"
"Forget it, let's go, it's important to eat." Childe stood up and said, "Dinner and baths should be prepared at home...... Grab your car keys. ”
Magnolia respectfully locked the office door for them, and watched them get into the 'Silver Citroen' car parked in the yard and slowly drive into the street and leave, the smile on their faces slowly becoming more sincere.
He originally thought that Jing Zhengwei was a good boss, but he didn't expect it to be even better.
Let the woman take care of the accounts for herself...... Where can you find a better boss?
Magnolia doesn't look down on Qinglan, after all, everyone is a ninth-rate, who still looks down on whom? He just didn't expect that the eldest young master of the Jing family, who made him tremble, was just a meat eater who was 'just like that' after all.
In a good mood today, Magnolia went to the noodle restaurant outside to eat a bowl of beef brisket fried sauce and noodles, then went home to change a set of clothes and headed for the port.
At the same time, three merchant ships slowly approached the port in the darkness of night.
……
……
"Don't go home yet, take a trip to Damen Rock Street."
Qinglan's eyes lit up: "Are you going to buy coconut milk?" ”
"It's not." Le Yu glanced at Qinglan, and then looked at the tea bottle she put beside her - when Le Yu went to buy coconut milk, she found that the bottle given by the store was very small, so she went to the side and bought a large-capacity tea bottle to fill it, and one bottle was three bottles.
He originally wanted to buy it back and drink it separately, but Qinglan drank it directly to his mouth when he got it. In fact, that's it, she doesn't get tired of drinking all day, and if she can't finish drinking it during the day, she will take it home and continue to drink, and she is not so addicted to drinking honey five-flower tea in Leyu.
"If you drink so much coconut milk for two days in a row, will you gain weight?"
"Won't it?" Qinglan was startled, subconsciously touched her stomach, the steering wheel was crooked, and Le Yu suddenly shouted: "Look at the road!" Don't bump into people! ”
Qinglan was in a hurry, but fortunately, there was no accident, Leyu accused: "When driving, you have to be focused, driving a little slower is not a bad thing, and remember not to take off your glasses when driving, look more at the road and talk less......"
Qing Lan was sullen for a while when she heard this, and couldn't help but retort: "Why don't you come to drive, Childe?" ”
"If I drive, won't I become your driver?" Leyu asked rhetorically, "And isn't driving fun?" Girls drive more, cherish the opportunity to drive, and enjoy the process of driving......"
In fact, Leyu is lazy.
At the beginning, Chen Fu was his driver, and now he has Qinglan as his driver. Qinglan has never driven a car before, but this world does not need to be verified and there is no traffic light, it can be said that you know how to step on the accelerator and how to brake, Qinglan has become a professional veteran driver after practicing all morning.
Qinglan didn't speak, and it looked like she was obviously not persuaded by Le Yu's crooked reasoning, but she had to bow her head under the eaves, and she didn't want to be kicked out of bed at night, so she could only drive obediently.
"Does drinking coconut milk really make you fat?" She asked suddenly.
"I don't know, but you won't get fat if you don't drink it." Leyu said.
Damen Stone Street is not on the same route as the Zhanpai Pavilion, and he is not very happy to buy coconut milk. It's just that Qinglan worked for him in vain, and he didn't even treat him with a cup of coconut milk, he felt that he couldn't get over his conscience, but if Qinglan didn't want to drink it, it would be different.
"Do you like to be thin or fat, son?"
"I like the big ones."
Qing Lan blinked, her eyes kept looking ahead, only blushing slightly.
She changed the subject very stiffly: "Childe, what are you doing on Damen Stone Street?" ”
"Calculate the time, and it's time for the fleet to return. On the night the fleet returned, Director Bai would meet with them privately to deal with the whole thing, and I was going to arrest them on the spot and put them in bed. ”
"What?" Qing Lan lost her voice and said, "You want to catch Director Bai while he is meeting with the members of the fleet?" ”
"That's right."
"No way!" Qinglan stepped on the brakes and stopped, looked at Le Yu and said, "Director Bai has already colluded with the fleet, and almost all those who dare to go on the sea are outlaws, and you will only let them die in the past." If you want to catch Director Bai, wouldn't it be better to catch it just now? Why did he have to catch him when he was meeting with the fleet? Don't you care about the evidence? ”
"Why are you so nervous?" Leyu glanced at her.
"I, I just don't think it's necessary to ......"
"There is a need." Le Yu pushed the car door and went out: "Moreover, I won't go alone, in addition to the guards at home, I will also find a helper...... You've stepped on the brakes well, and that's exactly right here. ”
Le Yu walked to a small mansion and picked up the copper ring of the doorknob and tapped it vigorously.
"Who?" A female voice seemed to sound in the courtyard.
Le Yu adjusted his voice and deliberately made his voice indistinct: "You will be very happy to meet someone." ”
A moment later, hurried footsteps sounded behind the door, and the door opened with a bang, and two men and women appeared. The man wears a double sword at his waist, and the woman is young and beautiful, with a tight body and a braided hair, which seems to be a warrior who loves beauty and is good at close combat.
Leyu glanced at the girl, then looked at the man elegantly and casually, and asked kindly:
"Second master, are you happy to see me?"
