Chapter 960: Dead Heart and Business
Before going to room 302 to meet Ms. Anne, Daniel made a trip to the bathroom in the ballroom.
He was planning to wash his face and tidy up his clothes before going to see his muse, so that his situation would not look so bad.
The problem is, I don't know what's going on tonight.
Even if he buried his entire face deep in the water-filled, marble-made sink; Stimulated by the cold water, I still felt dizzy in my brain.
For this, he can only blame everything on his own indulgence in duke and alcoholism in recent times.
so that the diet and rest are irregular, and their physical fitness is much worse; Otherwise, if you change to the usual, a large bottle of rum, you will definitely not let yourself get drunk like this.
I was worried that if I made Lady Anne wait too long, the goddess might be upset.
Daniel could only wipe the water droplets from his hands and face, with a still very dizzy braincase; Trying to avoid the eyes and attention of others, I made it all the way to the third floor.
It's just that after he pushed open the door of 302, his head instantly became even more dizzy.
Miss Anne, who sat upright in a white dress and looked like an angel, rushed over the moment he opened the door and entered.
When he was about to throw himself into his arms, he forcibly stopped himself.
With a look of concern, he sighed in a sad tone: "Daniel, my poor Daniel, why are you emaciated like this.
Don't you know that although I haven't confided my heart to you, I will help you no matter what difficulties you encounter?
Don't worry, I'll pay that money back to you early tomorrow morning, and you'll be fine. ”
At this moment, Daniel felt like he had gone from hell to heaven; He didn't have to die, and he finally had the favor of the goddess, something he had never dreamed of before.
Praise be to Brother Su! Is there anything more beautiful in this world?
However, the self-esteem of being a man makes this thing want to be a little polite and reserved.
But just as he opened his mouth to say something, 'how can I use your money?' or 'I can handle it myself', the angelic Lady Anne put a finger on Daniel's mouth.
After Daniel felt the cold, delicate touch of the most exquisite porcelain in the Orient, the last bit of politeness in his mouth was also blocked.
Then suddenly, the candles in the room went out, and the environment immediately went dark.
At the same time, a voice sounded in Daniel's ear:
"I'm sorry Hani, I haven't taken the initiative to show my heart to you, in fact, I have a last resort; That's because I promised my deceased husband's family one thing, that is, never to find a lover and remarry.
Otherwise, I will lose all my wealth now.
So, let's just tonight and act like nothing happened, okay? ”
Under such a statement, Daniel is the reaction, why is he facing no matter how hot and excellent the suitor.
Ms. Anne has never had the slightest ambiguous relationship with anyone.
Even in the Demon Capital, the number of suitors of this rich widow is staggering, and in the past month alone, several gentlemen have already dueled.
Then, he didn't have time to think too much about it in his mind, and he was overwhelmed by great happiness.
What's that! In order to develop some licking dogs, and then let those licking dogs do things for her, is it so big? Of course not.
Don't mention Hu Biao's goods, what kind of reaction will be after knowing it, the concubine would not have done such a thing.
She has been a little irritable and angry lately, so much so that she has acne on her face.
But I never thought about doing anything to be sorry for Hu Biao; At this point, there is no half-dime relationship between her and her familiar teammates, when the car drives to the point of flying.
And when the concubine came out of room 302 with a look of disgust.
When she closed the door of the room, the movement that had just begun was still going on, which meant that the woman inside was definitely not her.
To be more specific, the business that led to Daniel's bankruptcy, one of the mysterious customers, was actually arranged by Xiaobaiyan to contact
His warehouse and that batch of goods were also burned by Yun Qing himself.
What Daniel didn't even know was that the reason why the bank he borrowed money was so eager to collect the loan from him was also inseparable from the bank manager's daughter.
Everything is to let him be desperate and be able to borrow money from someone who helps him.
Otherwise, with the gambling money level of this and that rookie, can you really win money in Deyuelou every time?
In the end, it is necessary to make this thing bankrupt, in debt, and when life is the most gloomy and desperate, the concubine can appear like an angel and save him.
As for everything that happened in the room, why did Daniel mistake someone for a chaise loner?
Don't forget that some powder had been poured into Daniel's glass some time before; In fact, those things are hallucinogens extracted from some duck chips.
Need to get Daniel in advance, drink these things.
That was in the mission of the Great Song Xiangyang Copy, didn't the team get the soul dementoring Dafa in the "Nine Yin True Scripture", which is similar to hypnosis?
Many people in the team have seen and tried to cultivate this thing, but only the concubine has practiced a little.
Why is it a little bit? That was under normal circumstances, and she couldn't hypnotize anyone; However, with some hallucinogens, it can achieve a pretty good effect.
So now in room 302, Daniel thought that Lady Anne, the muse who was with him, was actually a Sikh servant who was originally in the hotel, engaged in laundry, cleaning and other sanitation work.
He is in his forties, dark-skinned, 1.6 meters tall, 1.7 meters waistline, and weighs almost 300 pounds.
She is very happy to have such a thing happen, not only does she not have to give money, but she is even willing to post a little upside down.
In short, from beginning to end, Daniel never really touched a single finger of the concubine; All of this is an illusion after a hallucination.
But it didn't affect at all, this one Duran man buried everything that happened tonight in his heart; Occasionally, while taking it out to reminisce, he is desperate to do things for the concubine......
As if doing a trivial thing that is not worth mentioning, the concubine returned to her office.
After getting ready to touch up her makeup a little, like a lion patrolling her territory, she went to start inspecting her Deyue Tower.
At present, there are many services such as dance halls, duke halls, restaurants, guest rooms, etc.
As a result, as soon as the makeup was touched, there was a knock on the office door, and at the same time, a voice sounded: "My lord, it's me Song Jie~"
Because Song Jie, the owner of the voice, was transferred from Shui Wei to do things, and after belonging to a subordinate who can be absolutely trustworthy, the concubine immediately said: "Come in~"
When the man in his thirties pushed the door in, he opened his mouth with good news:
"Lord Anne, Zhang Fuhai and the two of them have just returned from Jingshi, saying that they not only found Lord Hu Yitong and them, but also brought back a reply letter and some things."
After finishing speaking, he took out a letter and a wooden box that was tightly sealed with fire paint from the baggage behind him.
Another sentence was added to his mouth: "Zhang Fuhai said that the leader of Hu Yitong can explain."
The letter was addressed to the four adults, but the contents of the box were yours alone, and no one else could open them.
Please check whether the fire paint is in good condition. ”
After checking that the fire paint of the box was in good condition, the man took his leave.
Although Hu Biao mysteriously brought something to herself, the concubine felt quite curious; But in line with the fact that the team's business is important, I still translated the letter first.
Because there were a lot of words on that letter, it took a while to translate all of them.
Fortunately, the large number of words also made the concubine clearly understand what Hu Biao's task in the first stage was, which should be completed immediately, as well as some analysis and plans for this system task.
and some suggestions for the side quests of the four of them.
Among these suggestions, there was one of them, which asked Wolf Qing to quickly make a wireless telegraph.
Otherwise, the way in which the two sides have to make the messenger go back and forth for at least half a month is really too devastating.
In addition, other suggestions also need to make some adjustments to the follow-up plan of the four concubines.
Thinking of this, the concubine wanted to gather the three of them, including Xiaobaimian, Wolf Qing, and Yunqing, and let them read the letter, so that they could have a meeting between the four of them.
It was only when she got up that the girl reacted.
The four of them are each in charge of a large mess of things, and now they are all busy to the point of flying; Now, except for her staying in Deyue Tower, the remaining three people have long since run away.
Fortunately, no matter how busy they are, the four of them get together for breakfast every day.
Take advantage of this gap to report some of their respective work progress, so that everyone is aware of it.
So such a thing, I really can't rush it, I can really wait until tomorrow morning to talk about it.
Thinking of this, the concubine finally had the heart to come and see what Hu Biao, the dog man, had mysteriously brought to herself.
Three minutes later, the concubine threw a hard, smooth, and lightly scented toy carved from fine yellow rosewood out of the distance.
With the emotion of crying and laughing in his mouth, he scolded:
"What does this grandson think in his head, am I such a person who can't hold back?
But then again, the carving skills of this product are quite good, and it has a bit of his own posture of the same style; It's even a fork, the one with two roots.
What is it called? Increase the amount without increasing the price, double the happiness~"
After scolding, the concubine walked straight out of the office; It was only after a while that she ran back again, picked up Hu Biao's secret gift, and stuffed it under her pillow.
Then, the servants and staff of Deyue Tower were surprised to find out.
Ms. Anne, who was always radiant and never tired like an iron man, went to bed at least two hours earlier than usual because she was a little uncomfortable......
*******
At the same time, that is, the concubine covered her head.
I explained to the servants that I was a little unwell today, so I needed to rest early.
Little White Face, a rising star in the business world of the magic capital, has risen like a comet in the past month, and has just completed a business with quite good profits.
The problem is that he talks about business in a strange place, not in his own office.
It's not at the wine table where Orientals are more accustomed to talking about business; It's not the process that Westerners are used to at dance parties, afternoon tea, etc.
It's in a certain person in charge of the logistics of the Yin Army, in the boudoir of a lover in the magic capital.
If it were more specific.
That is, after lying on the bed for a long time, a Yanma of twenty-seven or eighteen years old, obviously tired, struggled to get up from the bed.
From the clothes that had been thrown all over the ground and even torn, a thin document was found.
glanced at a small table sitting next to him, smoking a cigar and drinking red wine, and felt that the other party was full of an indescribable melancholy temperament, and his eyes immediately showed a look of intoxication.
With such a look of intoxication, she sat straight on the lap of the little white face.
With the idea of wanting to swallow this man in one gulp, he kissed him fiercely before handing over the documents in his hand.
said delicately: "Xiao, I have done what you want."
Starting from next week, all the food supplies for the Yin Army's fleet and ground forces stationed in the Demon Capital will be handed over to you.
Of course, no matter how much money you can make in it, there must be no problems with the money promised to Colonel Thomas. ”
"Of course, now everyone in the magic capital knows that even if I lose money, I will not let my friends suffer."
The little white face who took the document was so solemnly assured in his mouth, and he thought so in his heart.
It's just a loss or something, it's complete nonsense.
Because he had already inquired, the purchase price of ingredients for the troops of the Great Yin Empire in the Demon Capital, whether it was meat or vegetables, was basically more than five times the normal purchase.
Even on some high-end ingredients, the price is a little higher.
Such a large profit, even if there is a considerable part of it, should be returned to the Colonel Thomas as a benefit; But even if you put a pig to do this kind of business, you can't lose money.
So, isn't this a little white face just completed a business with quite good profits?
Of course, although it is the first time to enter the business world, it is usually necessary to maintain the customer's feelings, and the little white face is still quite clear.
Because after he achieved his goal, he did not choose to put on his clothes immediately, and ran away with such a document.
Instead, I plan to follow the principle of friendly cooperation and mutual benefit, and come to another guy, which can be regarded as a gift.
But he was about to do something, and the two of them heard a sound after the iron door of the small courtyard downstairs was opened, and a crisp sound of horses' hooves reached their ears.
After the two of them looked at each other quickly, they had already reacted.
Who else could it be that the person who has the key to the iron door of the courtyard and will come here in the middle of the night is Colonel Thomas?
However, compared to the panic of the big Yanma, the little white face was a little calm.
After standing up, while putting on his clothes with amazing speed, he comforted the other party in his mouth: "Hani, don't worry, the time is completely in time." ”
This was indeed the case, until Colonel Thomas, who was full of alcohol, walked into this bedroom on the second floor.
Except for complaining that after the Yanmar fell asleep at night, he didn't even close the window and blew out the candles, but he didn't notice anything wrong in the room at all.
And when he began to change into pajamas under the service of the Yanmar who pretended to wake up and looked tired, the little white face even ran to the corner of the street three hundred meters away.
After putting away the document in his hand, he took advantage of the bright moonlight tonight to take out his pocket watch and glance at the latest time on it.
After discovering that it was almost one o'clock in the morning, he thought about going back to the Moon Tower to sleep.
After all, he has clearly felt the familiar symptoms of soreness in his waist and knees, cold limbs, hand tremors, hair loss, etc.
So today I really have to take it slow and go back early to have a good rest.
It's just that in the already cold night breeze of the Demon Capital, he wrapped his coat and walked out in the direction of Deyue Tower for about a hundred and ten steps.
The thing was scolding, but it went in a different direction.
Why? Because the little white face thought of a little.
Now that the old Henry has joined the team, their procurement of many machines and materials has become much easier all of a sudden.
They even contacted an armed merchant ship, and as long as they paid for it, they could sail back for secret refits.
It's just that what old Henry can provide is limited to some channels.
Faced with this abandoned member of the Cavendish family, the white-skinned men of the Demon Capital may give a little face; But if you don't have enough real money to come up with, you can't buy anything.
In order to buy these machinery and materials and arm merchant ships, the money in their hands was spent like a stream, and there was still no end in sight.
But the money they got from Sassoon Manor was worth a lot.
But the new head of the Sassoon family has arrived in the magic capital ten days ago, and is currently frantically tracking down the murderer.
Therefore, they have a considerable number of high-value jewelry, which is still pressed on their hands and not disposed of, and the financial pressure is quite great.
So what else can the little white face do now? Of course, it's to work overtime once, and then to negotiate a profitable business......
