My Supernatural Life of Leisure
Chapter 1524: : Inexplicable criticism (2
What this elf maid with a ponytail said, in fact, these elf maids present wanted to tell Lu Qi in their hearts, but they couldn't say it, and I didn't expect it to be said today.
"..." Lu Qi originally wanted to reach out and eat a small fruit from the fruit bowl, but when she heard what her friend said, she was stunned.
Then, her face, neck, and ears instantly turned red, especially her fair face, which was like a ripe apple at this time.
"You, what are you talking about? How could I possibly be a lady?" Lu Qi, who had regained her senses, blushed and retorted in a low voice.
An elf girl who was nearly eighty years old immediately retorted Lu Qi.
"Who says it's impossible? I've been working here for more than 20 years. In other manors around us, there is a maid like us, who finally married her master and became a lady."
"That's right, I've heard about that person, and now I'm enjoying her."
"I seem to have heard that you are talking about the person who married the general defending the city!"
The elf maids who were resting in the small pavilion began to tell the story of the maid who flew on the branches and turned into a phoenix.
A girl like them who works as a maid in a big family's family can marry a dignitary like a general who defends the city. It can indeed be said that she has become a phoenix and changed her life.
Now, in the eyes of these elf maids, Lu Qi is very likely to become the second maid to fly to the branches and become a phoenix, and this opportunity makes them envious.
"Don't talk nonsense." Lu Qi was so embarrassed by her friends that she wanted to find a place to hide.
The elf maids saw that Lu Qi was shy, but they talked more and more.
"Yeah!" Lu Qi shouted, and then ran out of the pavilion and ran out of the garden, with the cheers of the little friends giggling behind her.
...
Inside the account.
The accountant of Lin Fei's manor, Jing Jiu, is now seriously recording the income and expenditure of the manor during the recent period.
After a while, Jing Jiu finally finished the work at hand, and then she stood up and stretched.
With her slender figure and silver-white hair, if she appears at the animation exhibition on Blue Star, it will definitely attract a lot of animation fans to take pictures.
It is a pity that such a scene can never appear on Blue Star.
"Tread, step, step..."
The sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the corridor, and after a while, a figure ran into the account room.
"Huh? Luqi, why are you here?" Jing Jiu asked with a smile when she saw the person coming.
Lu Qi, who was embarrassed by the words of her friends, was originally blushing like Red Apple, but after running all the way, her shyness has faded, and her complexion has returned to its original state.
Originally, Lu Qi was so ashamed because of the words of her friends, and her heart was pounding.
However, when she really came to the accountant and saw Jing Jiu, she couldn't say the words that came out of her mouth.
Thinking about it too, what about marrying the boss to be the manor's wife, she is only fifty-four years old this year, and she has just come of age! How can this little girl say something out of her mouth?
"I'm here to play with you! Jing Jiu, have you finished your work?" Lu Qi looked at Jing Jiu naively, then changed the subject and said.
"You came over just after you were done." Jing Jiu said with a smile.
"You've been so busy these days!"
"Because those old chocolates are selling better now."
"Oh." Lu Qi nodded and said, "Tomorrow is the day when the tea housekeeper gives us a holiday, let's go shopping in Lakeside Town!
I will take you to eat grilled fish in Lakeside Town. I recommended the boss to go to Lakeside Town to eat grilled fish. After eating, he came back and told me that he liked the taste of grilled fish in Lakeside Town. "
"Okay! Shall we go out tomorrow morning or in the afternoon?" Jing Jiu, who has never been to Hupan Town, said with a smile.
"Let's go out in the morning! This time I'll take you to the tavern I recommended the boss to go to eat grilled fish. If we go in the afternoon, I'm afraid that the fish that the tavern owner bought from the fishermen in the morning will be sold out."
"Okay, let's go out tomorrow morning."
Jing Jiu and Lu Qi were in the account room, planning a trip to Lakeside Town tomorrow, when there was another hurried footsteps in the corridor.
"Jing Jiu, the tea housekeeper asked me to call you to the living room." A tall elf maid came to the account and said to Jing Jiu who was chatting with Lu Qi.
"Oh, alright, I'll go... The tea housekeeper asked you to come to the living room. What's the matter? Do you know?" Jing Jiu got up from the chair and walked out the door, facing the person who came to look for him. the elf maid asked.
"I don't know what it is, but after a guest who came to visit saw the tea housekeeper, they chatted for a while, and then the tea housekeeper asked me to come to you."
"Visitors who came to visit?!"
When Lu Qi saw that Jing Jiu was going to work, she was the only one left in the accounting room. She was idle and had nothing to do, so she left the accounting room.
I'm worried that those little friends will joke about being a lady in the future, and now she won't go to the garden.
So, Lu Qi walked to the fish pond in the manor, where there were many colorful ornamental fish.
Because this manor used to belong to the royal family, those ornamental fish were brought out from the palace.
Dear, this chapter is not over, there is another page ^0^
It is said that the bloodlines of these ornamental fish are unusual. When they grow to a certain age, they are directly fished out, boiled and eaten, and the practitioners will increase their cultivation.
About those ornamental fish, Lu Qi also listened to her friends.
This is the first time Luqi has heard of eating fish that can increase her cultivation.
It's a pity that those ornamental fish grow too slowly. They won't grow a centimeter in ten or twenty years. Now they are only one finger in length. It may take another hundred years to raise them before they can be served on the table!
...
"Tread, step, step..."
The tea housekeeper and guests in the living room were drinking tea when they heard light footsteps outside the door, and they knew that the person they were waiting for was coming.
Jing Jiu walked into the living room and glanced at the strange guest the tea housekeeper was receiving.
The stranger was about one hundred and twenty years old, 1.8 meters tall, with a length of hair, ear studs with red gemstones on his ears, and he was wearing expensive satin clothes.
"Tea steward, do you have something to do with me?" After Jing Jiu glanced at the unfamiliar guests, he immediately greeted the old steward Cha Tu.
"Jing Jiu, sit down first." The old housekeeper Cha Tu nodded and gave Jing Jiu a look.
This look is very familiar to Jing Jiu, because during this period of time, she has received this look several times.
Seeing the look in the eyes of the old housekeeper Cha Tu, Jing Jiu knew why he was called here.
"President Shi, don't look at me as the housekeeper of this manor, but the chocolate business, my master handed over to this Jingjiu girl to take care of it." The old housekeeper Chatu said to the guest who came to the door.
Jing Jiu, who was sitting on the side, heard the tea housekeeper address the visiting guest, President Shi. After thinking about it, she knew that the person in front of her should be the president of a certain chamber of commerce.
Having been able to receive the tea housekeeper personally for so long, I can see that the chairman of this chamber of commerce has done a lot of business.
In order for this manor in the elf world to operate normally, all the workers in the manor should be paid.
Lin Fei wholesaled chocolates from Blue Star to the Elf World to sell, which was considered a lucrative business for the manor.
Lin Fei's original intention was to make the manor run normally, and he didn't want to make a lot of money by relying on chocolate, but the development of things was somewhat out of his original intention.
With the spread of chocolate, a unique snack from another world, coupled with word of mouth, it is said that chocolate is a high-end product that can only be found in the capital, so now chocolate has become a high-end gift for many people.
More and more people came to buy chocolate, so much so that the owner of the snack shop that Lin Fei cooperated with had to make a decision to limit the purchase, but the purchase limit did not solve the problem.
Because there are people like scalpers, even in the elf world, these scalpers saw the business opportunities of chocolate, a unique commodity, and began to organize people to queue up to buy chocolates.
The owner of the snack shop that Lin Fei cooperated with now listens to the shopkeeper reporting to him every day that there is a long queue outside the shop before the sky is completely bright.
As soon as the door is opened, the daily quota of chocolates will be swept away in a short while.
And these shopkeepers who do business are all veterans. Naturally, they know that the people who come to line up before dawn these days must be scalpers.
But you can't stop them. After all, they are queuing up to buy things according to the rules. You can't do anything about them.
As more and more scalpers joined the queue, the scarcity of chocolate was spread wildly.
Originally, a piece of chocolate was worth a few copper coins, but now it has been abruptly turned over by those scalpers by a dozen or twenty times.
At such a price, ordinary people can't afford it at all, making chocolate completely reduced to a special commodity for rich merchants and some dignitaries.
This is just the situation here in the White Elf Capital City. In order to obtain greater profits, some scalpers directly shipped the purchased chocolates out of the capital.
When transported to other remote cities, after arriving at the destination, the price of chocolate that had already doubled several times was doubled again. These scalpers can be said to have made a lot of money.
Such astonishing profits have naturally attracted the attention of many forces. The dignitaries in the capital have some business in their hands. Now this business that can almost be said to be lying down and making money suddenly appeared in the capital. How can you not be distracted?
However, at their level, they definitely won't take action immediately. Others don't know the details of Lin Fei, but these dignitaries know more or less.
The owner behind the chocolate business is the one who saved Her Royal Highness's life! How long has it been? No matter how greedy they were, they would not dare to grab this business directly.
Those dignitaries who knew some details of Lin Fei temporarily took a break and waited for the change, but some other small forces did not have such connections and knew the details about Lin Fei.
Just like this President Shi, who is being received by the tea housekeeper.
He is from the southern part of the White Elf Kingdom. Although he has business in more than a dozen cities in the southern part, he is a small and powerful chamber of commerce, but he is tens of thousands of miles away from the capital, and the information is not well-informed.
Even if they came to the capital and asked around for news, how could the dignitaries in the capital see this small chamber of commerce from the south?
Therefore, he naturally couldn't inquire about any important news, and only thought that Lin Fei was a nouveau riche who started his business from chocolate.
"That person named Lin Fei is too unreliable! He even entrusted such an important business as chocolate to such a girl who is only about sixty years old.
Dear, this chapter is not over, there is another page ^0^ uh... This girl is quite beautiful and has a good figure. It seems that Lin Fei is also a womanizer. "
This man, who was called President Shi by the old housekeeper Cha Tu, looked at Jing Jiu and criticized Lin, who had never met before, in his heart.
If Lin Fei could hear this person's criticism of him at this moment, he would definitely be a little surprised... There is only one accountant at home, and I don't entrust the chocolate business to her, should I leave it to those who are not good at counting? take care of it?
"Ms. Jingjiu, my name is Shi Jiancang, I'm the president of the Qingshi Chamber of Commerce who came from afar." Shi Jiancang introduced himself to Jing Jiu after criticizing a certain Lin in his heart.
"Hello, President Shi, my name is Jing Jiu." Jing Jiu responded, then went straight to the topic, and said to Shi Jiancang, "President Shi's visit this time is to buy chocolate, right?"
Shi Jiancang didn't expect that Jing Jiu knew the purpose of his trip before he even opened his mouth, a look of surprise flashed on his face, then he quickly calmed down and spoke to Jing Jiu.
"Yes, Miss Jingjiu, this time I came to the capital to attend a friend's 250 birthday banquet.
At the banquet, I happened to taste the delicious snack of chocolate, and I was instantly conquered by its sweet taste.
Later, I asked my friend, and he told me that this chocolate is your master's business.
So I have the cheek to visit, hoping to buy a batch of chocolate from you and bring it back to my hometown, so that people in my hometown can also taste this delicious snack. "
The chairman of the chamber of commerce is the chairman of the chamber of commerce. What a high-sounding statement! Saying that you want to buy a batch to bring back to your hometown, and let the people in your hometown also taste this delicious snack, the excuse of UU reading www.uukanshu.com is really touching!
"I brought it back to my hometown to try it. I didn't think that bringing this chocolate back from the capital would make a huge amount of money, so I came to buy it."
This kind of rhetoric, similar, Jing Jiu has heard many times during this period of time, and has long been immune.
Although Jing Jiu was complaining in her heart that President Shi said these high-sounding words, she did not show it on her face, but said to Shi Jiancang apologetically.
"President Shi, I'm really sorry, we already have a partner. If you want to buy chocolate, just go and talk to our partner directly."
