Chapter 40: Operate in the dark
Mama Yang carefully looked Li Yuqing up and down, the girl has been like a piece of jade gradually brushing away the dust since the early spring of this year, exuding a rare treasure-like brilliance, mysterious, beautiful, calm, unconsciously seductive.
Now that the body has grown flesh and smoked again, it is already vaguely a bit slim, and it won't be long before she grows into a woman who has fascinated countless people. Mama Yang was happy and a little reluctant in her heart.
"It's good if my sister has an idea, grandma listens to you, my sister is already so powerful!"
Mama Yang gently touched Li Yuqing's face with her hand, half proud and half emotional.
Li Yuqing half-hung her body on the body of the nurse, like a child who was coquettish to her mother: "Mama is the best!" ”
Mama Yang hugged her sister with her arms, combed her hands lovingly, and combed her long soft and dark hair gently and delicately.
The two of them were tired of being crooked like this for a while, and Mama Yang let go of Li Yuqing, she was not a fool, of course she remembered that her sister still had important things.
Li Yuqing called Zimo over and asked her to change her clothes with Green Orange and Red Rose.
Zimo was wearing an embroidered pink gauze skirt, on which the peony flowers were in full bloom, the weaving thread was delicate, and the color was bright.
The face plate is also carefully depicted, with pink faces, bright eyes and bright teeth, not at all like a woman who is nearly forty years old, like a pretty girl who is just in her prime.
Li Yuqing's eyes flashed with amazement, he was very busy during this time, either staying in the shop or reading and learning in the wing, and he couldn't bear to work in the hot summer The two elders came to eat together, so I haven't seen him for more than a month, I didn't expect it to change so much.
looked at Zimo's appearance, young and bright, and changed his mouth:
"Sister Zimo is really good-looking dressed like this, I'm dumbfounded, the two of us go to the street together, others will definitely think it's a sister."
Zimo's face flushed a little shyly, her thick and slender eyelashes trembled, her pink lips opened, and her voice carried a secret joy: "Really? ”
Li Yuqing smiled very affirmatively and nodded: "Yes, it's very good-looking!" ”
But there is hesitation in my heart, if I dress like a girl, there is nothing wrong, but this mood also makes a girl's appearance, not like a deliberate pretend, but like the mentality, what's going on?
After Zimo was affirmed, her eyebrows and eyes smiled brightly, like a white lotus blooming in dew, beautiful and graceful.
"What's the matter with Miss's call Zimo?"
Now there is still business, Li Yuqing put her doubts in her heart, and planned to find a time to ask Mama Yang.
"Sister Zimo and Red Rose and Green Orange changed five clothes together."
As he spoke, he pointed to a pile of clothes in Bihe's hand, "Here are my four sets of clothes, changed to just fit Bihe, this pink one is for pink cherry, lotus lotus is for Bihe, red is for green orange, and blue is for red rose." ”
After speaking, he took out a white tulle dress of excellent material and a gold silk smock with purple patterns on a black background from the suitcase, and gave it to her together with the roll of dark clothes and snow:
Sister Zimo sewed the snow on the hem of the white dress, and sewed the excess at the mouth of the collar of the dress, and cut the blouse into a summer style, which just matched the changed white shirt.
Sister Zimo remembers, when you wear it, the white shirt inside must be exposed to the fabric of the snow! ”
Zimo took all the things in Li Yuqing's hand, and agreed without a doubt: "Zimo knows." ”
Li Yuqing waited for a while, but didn't see Zimo speak again, and was shocked and suspicious in her heart.
Zimo didn't even ask, this Youyi Xue was a family heirloom of the Zhou family brought by Zhou Hui, and it was impossible for her not to know it.
Li Yuqing wanted to open her mouth several times, looking at Zimo a little innocently, as if the scroll of dark clothes and snow was just an ordinary thing, and felt that things didn't seem to be simple.
Forget it, let's find Mama Yang and Li Donglan to find out the situation first.
After the order was attached, he called Li Lanhang to come over, he had already taken over Li Sansan's stewardship, and the corresponding responsibilities should also be taken up.
Here's her rough plan:
"Tomorrow there will be an event in the shop, it will be called - Lucky Exclusive Day, the stairs on the second floor will be blocked by customers, and the snack area will not be sold on that day. I stole the old books from the bookshelf and put them in my newly written notebook.
Guests who spend enough two taels of silver can draw a prize, with a total of eight places. The first eight winners will be able to go to the second floor, have the opportunity to see the new book of the shop, and go up to the follow-up tea and snacks are free, and guests can stay until the shop closes in the evening. ”
He paused and looked at Li Lanhang.
Li Lanhang nodded: "Miss, I understand!" ”
Li Yuqing then carefully continued: "Then you have to do a lot of things, you have to order a billboard and a box to touch the prize, to ensure that it is done before the shop opens tomorrow."
Then hire some short-term workers, talk and shout in the streets and alleys before it gets dark, and let everyone know that there is this activity.
After coming back, think about how to operate in the dark, so that the eight people in the touch include me, Hongmei, and Yan, these six places are determined, and the remaining two are normally selected from the guests.
…”
After talking about the details for half an hour, Li Lanhang asked a few more questions that were a little confused and unclear, and after Li Yuqing explained them to him one by one, he hurried out.
He first went to the carpenter shop he frequented to set up a lottery box and advertise the wooden signs. After this was done, I was already sweating profusely, and the afternoon sunlight did not diminish in the slightest, and people were sweating all over their bodies when they were running below.
I didn't care about being thirsty, I didn't drink a sip of water, so I went to the human market to issue a task. In the summer, many shops have reduced their number of people because of their business failures, and there are many people who come down to find something to make a living at this time.
"What to do? I got it! ”
"I arrived first!"
"Later, don't do it!"
…
Li Lanhang was hot and noisy, and shouted a few words loudly and desperately: "Don't be next to me, stay away!" It turned out to be useless, and the sound was swallowed up in the noise of the crowd, and there was no echo.
He was a little anxious at this moment, and the sweat on his forehead was even more cheerful. Originally, it was going to be a thing, but didn't this procrastination have to be delayed!
They looked around and squeezed out the crowd with all their might, and everyone thought that it might be the patron who ran away, and immediately chased after them. Li Lanhang Yuguang saw that everyone was about to surround him again, and secretly said badly, and immediately rushed to a store, took the gong, and struck it a few times, his hands were red with shock.
"Knock-knock-knock!"
"Knock-knock-knock!"
The piercing sound shook people's eardrums, and everyone covered their ears with their hands, and the scene was quiet for a while.
Li Lanhang took advantage of this to hurry up and speak: "Everyone listen to me quietly!" I'm looking for thirty short-term workers, and I immediately take the guy to the streets and alleys to shout, and inform Xinmuzhai of tomorrow's activities, start immediately, and end when the sky is completely dark, and work for fifty yuan! ”
He quickly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and continued: "Don't make noise! If you want to, come and line up quietly, and don't cut in line! ”
After quickly selecting thirty people and telling them what to say, the thirty people immediately took action, and he also ran to Xinmuzhai without stopping.
Entering the backyard of Xinmuzhai, Li Lanhang breathed a sigh of relief, fetched a bucket of water from the well, washed his face, and drank a few large scoops of water before relieving himself from the heat.
I found a shade and sat down directly, rubbing my head and thinking about how to lay out tomorrow's personnel.
Now the people in the shop are all newly recruited except for the owner of the back kitchen, the shopkeeper in the front yard, the shelf keeper who reads the book on the second floor, and the head of the guy on the first and second floors.
The people who helped in the shop before were sent by the lady to go to various counties and towns near Qingluo Town to inquire about the local situation, and then open a branch shop after understanding it clearly.
The newly recruited people are still very short, and they don't know whether they are good or bad, and people with different minds are also mixed in. They can't know about this matter, and those are the ones who can make small movements...
The shop was closed, leaving a few people who would not need it tomorrow to guard the shop, and the rest went back to the house with Li Lanhang to discuss matters.
At night, a few people went out at the back door of Li's house, and they came back half an hour later, as if they were carrying a few things in their hands, but it was also wrong to see it when it was dark.
There are lights everywhere in Li's house, and there are only a few lights on weekdays.
Li Yuqing sat in the main hall in the front yard and waited for a while, and after a while, Li Lanhang and the others came back with the lottery box and the propaganda wooden sign.
Li Donglan, who was waiting in the room, saw everyone returning, stepped forward to cut a piece of the back of the lottery box a little closer to the bottom, and added a drawer bucket to enter, which is the method of "dark box operation" tomorrow.
The drawer bucket is full of winning paper balls, and when Yan Kuan comes to draw them, he will add them, and then pull them out after he draws them, and everyone draws them is a normal paper ball, as for Li Yuqing and Hongmei, they don't have to be so troublesome, just hide the paper ball in their hands and grab it.
After discussing how to lure Yan Kuan into suspicion, and then let him discover the "truth" step by step, and arrange the dialogue actions of all the participants, everyone began to write paper balls.
The winning paper ball has a large black character "Award" on it, and it is stamped with the characteristic seal of "Shinkisai". The paper balls that did not win the lottery were written "Thank you for your patronage" and stamped with a seal.
In order to proceed smoothly, the original bottom of the lottery box was filled with "Thank you for your patronage", and two "prizes" were thrown into it after Yan Kuan won the lottery.
After writing, everyone rehearsed several times, how to operate the person who does the camera obscura, and what the attitude of the person performing should be, Li Yuqing guided and corrected them one by one.
She is also involved in this aspect of performance, shooting costume videos, cos have requirements for modality, she is a veteran player for seven or eight years, and it is no problem to audition for the starring role of several teams of highly famous director teams, and it is even easier for others to guide them.
Waiting for the rehearsal to be finished, the night is already deep.
Li Yuqing hurriedly went back to the backyard to take a bath, washed her hair, finally dried her hair, and fell asleep.
