Back to the Republic of China to open a department store

Chapter 45 Return of the Summer Solstice

It hurts, it hurts like my head is bursting.

Luo Xiazhi wanted to hammer with both hands, and hit something with his head, it was better than the helpless pain now.

It's just strange, he remembered that he was obviously stabbed in the chest, why now it's his head that hurts.

"Wake up, wake up, hey, young man, are you okay?"

It took a lot of effort for him to open his eyelids a little, but what he saw was a completely unfamiliar face.

"Young man, you scared us to death. It's just a lucky bag, do you need to work so hard?"

What lucky bag?

Is Shimai Department Store releasing lucky bags again?

Why did he want to grab his family's lucky bag?

Also, is this guy new here? Why doesn't he have any image at all?

"Son, son. Don't scare me. Mom lost her soul just now."

Ms. Wu pouted her buttocks, pushed the staff member aside, leaned down and called to Luo Xiazhi, "Son, are you all right? Get up, let's go home!"

"mom!"

Luo Xiazhi's head, which was still in chaos, suddenly became sober.

This is his own mother!

Ms. Wu, who is 160 in height and weight, Ms. Wu, who speaks so loudly that she can be heard half a floor away, and his own mother, Ms. Wu!

By the way, he and Ms. Wu came to the newly opened department store to grab lucky bags. He accidentally fell down just now, and he remembered everything!

"mom!"

He nodded excitedly, "Okay, go home! Let's go home."

He tried his best to prop up his body, but in the next second he felt dizzy again, and then passed out again.

----------------

"Mommy mommy……"

While using a cotton swab dipped in boiled water to smear Luo Xiazhi's chapped lips, Gu Hanlin suddenly heard a faint sound from the bed.

"Summer solstice? Summer solstice?"

He put down the cotton swab and water cup, and put his head close to Luo Xiazhi's head.

It had been four full days since the operation. Although the doctor had announced that he passed the critical period safely, Luo Xiazhi hadn't woken up. The doctor had done various examinations, but he couldn't explain why.

He was afraid that if he cared about Luo Xiazhi's pulse, he wouldn't be able to take Luo Xiazhi's pulse, so he specially asked his father and elder brother to check Xia Zhi's pulse, but it turned out that there was nothing serious, but he just couldn't wake up.

On the contrary, the family doctor of the Luo family suddenly said a few days ago that Luo Xiazhi had fallen from the balcony four years ago, and there was a blood clot in his brain that did not dissipate.

The quickest way to eliminate congestion is either surgery or traditional Chinese medicine to dissipate stasis.But Xia Zhi has just had a major life-threatening surgery, and the wound has not yet fully healed, so how could it be another surgery and loose silt at this time.

There was no other way but to wait.

After coming out of the emergency room, Luo Xiazhi lived in the best suite in the whole hospital.Fully equipped kitchen and bathroom.And Gu Hanlin simply lived in the ward.

Anyway, he has studied medicine, whether it's giving Xiaoxia injections and dressings, scrubbing and changing clothes, or making him the wild ginseng and other tonics specially sent by his father, it's all easy to do.

Seeing that he is more attentive and considerate than his own mother, Bai Fenghuang really likes Gu Hanlin's "godson" more and more - since he is Xiaoxia's post brother, he is naturally her half son up.

"Xiao Xia spoke, is he awake?"

At this time, Bai Fenghuang also walked into the ward with the boiled black chicken soup, and saw Gu Hanlin lying beside the bed.

"Mom, he said 'Mom', he seemed to be calling mom just now."

Gu Hanlin excitedly looked up at Bai Fenghuang.

Yes, although it is very faint, Xiaoxia is really talking!

Being able to talk meant that he was about to wake up!

"He said - 'Mom,' 'go home.'"

He put his ear almost to the slightly trembling lips of Luo Xiazhi, and finally heard clearly what Luo Xiazhi was saying.

"Xiao Xia, mom is here, mom is here!"

Rushed to the other side of the bed, Bai Fenghuang's eyes were full of tears

"Go home, when you are well, mom will take you home, and we will go home together."

Large and large teardrops rolled down on the back of Luo Xiazhi's blue and white hands with pinholes - he basically lives by drip now, the backs of both hands are covered with large and small pinholes and The purple bruise broke the hearts of Bai Fenghuang and Gu Hanlin.

As if scalded by tears, Luo Xiazhi's fingers moved slightly.

He opened his eyes and looked suspiciously at the whiteness above his head.

"Xiao Xia, Xiao Xia, look at your mother!"

Bai Fenghuang watched in surprise as Luo Xiazhi opened his eyes little by little. She was so happy that she held his thin palm tightly.

"Mother?"

Seeing the woman in front of him, Luo Xiazhi instinctively blurted out these two words.

In the next second, he himself was stunned.

Why... another "mother"?

"Xiao Xia, Xiao Xia? Xiao Xia, why did you fall asleep again? Look at your mother, she will take you home! Hanlin quickly call the doctor, call the doctor to come and see."

Seeing that his son had just opened his eyes and fell asleep within a few seconds, Bai Fenghuang hurriedly asked Gu Hanlin for help.

A few minutes later, a large number of medical staff poured in.

After the doctor's diagnosis and Gu Hanlin's pulse diagnosis, it was finally confirmed that Luo Xiazhi had really woken up for the first time after being out of danger.There is no serious problem, but the body is too weak, just tonic.

----------------

"Extraordinary! The head of Shimai Department Store finally recovered and was discharged from the hospital! The murderer confessed to his actions, and the person behind the scenes is still unknown!"

"The latest newspaper, let's read the latest newspaper! Another big incident happened to Luo's family. Seventh Aunt went crazy and was sent to a mental hospital. The reporter squatting at the door of Luo's house took a picture of her admission on the spot!"

"Come and take a look! At the beginning of the new year, Modern Department Store opened again, and the Li brothers denied that they intended to murder the third young master of the Luo family. Who is behind everything, come and buy a newspaper and have a look!"

Since Luo Sanshao was assassinated in November, the Luo family has made headlines in local newspapers every now and then.If the citizens of Shanghai were only interested in the Luo family's department store, now they are also talking about the Luo family's bloody incidents.

After Luo Sanshao was assassinated, Aunt Qi went crazy right after, and it looked like a bloody secret fight in the house!

What's more, everyone saw that Luo Sanshao was with Liang Shaolong of Qinglongtang on the day he was assassinated.

This is even more powerful. How many people in Shanghai did not know what kind of business Qinglongtang used to do.Although he has washed his hands now, but I heard that he is fighting fiercely with the military again, so he is not a well-behaved businessman.

As for the Li family, although they said that they had just returned from Guangzhou after the New Year, they knew nothing about things in Shanghai.However, even elementary school students can do mental calculations with their eyes closed. Luo Sanshao had an accident, and the one who got the most benefit from it was the modern department store of the Li family—after all, the husband of the attempted murderer died in the modern department store. of!

Black~Tao, house fight, business war!

Be good, Young Master Luo is a "tie stick", one person can involve so many dramas, and each drama alone is a bloody drama, and he unexpectedly encountered them all.

What's so good about a movie, what's so good about a big play, it's nothing compared to Master Luo!

"So, Young Master Liang, are you here to tell me that I am now the No.1 hot search list in Shanghai?"

Putting down the newspaper, Luo Xiazhi sarcastically asked Liang Shaolong who was sitting beside his bed eating canned yellow peaches.

"I don't care about you, I came here to see you."

Liang Shaolong swallowed two big yellow peaches in one gulp, and after swallowing for a while, he asked doubtfully, "What is 'Hot Search'?"

"Go away! There are people like you, open a can and eat what you give to the patient first."

Gu Hanlin pushed him away in disgust, and put the stewed soup on the small table in front of Luo Xiazhi.

"Why do you want to drink it? Doesn't it mean that you don't need to drink Chinese medicine in the future?"

Luo Xiazhi looked at the bowl of black juice in front of him, showing a troubled expression.

"After drinking the tonic my dad sent, it's all over. Just bear with it."

"Cousin, you are exaggerating too much. It was just stabbed, and he has been lying in bed for a month. Are you going to let him lie on the bed after New Year's Day and then Spring Festival?"

Liang Shaolong patted his chest, his fingers fluttered, and gestured up and down on his body, "I was hacked with such a long knife here. Here, the bullet went through... ribs and broke three of them. That's it, I’ve recovered in half a month, and I’m still alive and well. I haven’t cried out in pain.”

Luo Xiazhi put down the soup bowl and gave a thumbs up in admiration.

Man, Comrade Liang Shaolong is really a man.

"Master, the Li family sent someone to send an invitation letter. Their department store is scheduled to reopen on February 2st. Please come and watch the ceremony, Master."

Ale knocked on the door and walked in, handing a gold-plated invitation letter to Luo Xiazhi.

Speaking of which, since the Li family returned to Shanghai in early January, in order to prove that they have nothing to do with the police, they have been very attentive to Luo Xiazhi.

All kinds of special products and supplements seemed to be delivered to the Luo mansion, and the young master of the Li family even visited the house in person.But at that time Luo Xiazhi was still ordered to rest, so Luo Yunze received him.

It is estimated that when the two separated, they were secretly scolding each other's old fox.

Luo Xiazhi opened the invitation and browsed it, then smiled and handed it to the curious Liang Shaolong.

"Master Liang, do you want to go and see the fun together?"

What Liang Shaolong likes most in his life is to join in the fun. He belongs to the extremists who want to create excitement if there is no excitement. However, after seeing what was written on the invitation letter, Young Master Liang rolled his eyes and threw the invitation letter aside.

"Cena, there's something wrong with his brain! The opening ceremony was held on the rooftop in the twelfth lunar month, and he thought it was Guangdong!"

----------------

In the early morning of February [-]st, the opening ceremony of Li's modern department store was held on the newly renovated rooftop.

The two brothers, who believe in Fengshui, had made a fortune before the reorganization and opening of the business.

First, the great virtuous monk was invited to recite the scriptures for seven days to save the soul of Manager Jiang.Then, under the guidance of "Master Maoshan", a date was selected, and the opening ceremony was held on the highest point of the entire main road—that is, on the roof of their house.

It is said that only in this way can all ghosts and snake spirits be suppressed, and from then on, business can go smoothly and take the lead.

So there was a funny scene of the opening ceremony of "Frozen Man" on the rooftop in the twelfth lunar month.

Luo Xiazhi wanted to introduce Helan's attending doctor to them.If they had given Manager Jiang a way out in the first place, why would this be the case.

Luo Xiazhi, who had been allowed to return to work in the department store, led a group of senior managers and sat in front of the window on the seventh floor facing the rooftop of the modern department store, blowing on the heater while drinking coffee.From a distance, he watched the hem of the cheongsam of the host on the opposite roof being blown wildly by the strong wind, and the hostesses and distinguished guests all shivered and shivered pitifully.

"Oh, I see that the Ministry of Industry and the Consulate will not be able to go to work tomorrow, and they will all have a cold and a fever."

Sitting behind Luo Xiazhi, Xiao Feiyan clicked her tongue twice.

"But the roof is well built. Look, the pavilions and pavilions have been built. It is said that there are man-made rockeries, springs, and trees planted on it. It is like moving the Jiangnan garden to a modern building. .One thing to say, it looks much better than the bare concrete floor above us."

Now that Luo Xiazhi has just recovered from a serious illness, he is more afraid of the cold than ordinary people. He is sitting in the heating room with a brass Mrs. Tang in his hands. He speaks slowly and is not as energetic as before.

"No matter how good-looking it is, it's just copying our ideas."

"Our rooftop is also being remodeled these days, and it's not certain whose one is more beautiful."

"That's right! Besides, we have done our homework in order to welcome the reopening of Hyundai!"

The cold wind was blowing outside the window, and the sky was gloomy and it was about to snow.On the other side of the window, the employees of Shimai Department Store are full of enthusiasm and energy - when the third young master is back, they will have a backbone.

What's more, long before the young master returned to the company, a project that had been going on for almost half a year was finally coming to completion in the past few days.

Putting down Mrs. Tang, Luo Xiazhi turned his head and said to his secretary Zheng Jiesen, "Send an invitation letter to the brothers of the Li family. Oh, and don't forget to send it to Young Master Liang as well. He has been living in Meiyuan recently, and he has to wait When the plum blossoms fall, I return to Suzhou."

Three days later, the second brother of the Li family, who suffered from a high fever for several days because of the cold wind inhaled on the day of the opening ceremony, received a bronzing invitation letter from Shimai Department Store on their sickbed at home.

"No way, isn't this Luo Xiazhi just discharged from the hospital? I saw him walking swayingly, so what's going on?"

To be honest, these two brothers have been in business for most of their lives, and this is the first time they have met a young man like Luo Xiazhi.

There are always so many messy brilliant ideas in this person's mind, not to mention surpassing, even running along is enough.

"Welcome Mr. Li to the opening ceremony of Temporary Department Store 'Ice and Snow Club'...Club address: Basement [-] of Shimai Department Store. Basement? Ice and Snow Club?"

What is that?

Li Zhaoye, who was blowing his nose, looked blankly at his elder brother's equally confused expression.

"That's awesome, Xiao Xia, you're really awesome!"

Standing in front of an ice rink as pure as snow and as calm as a mirror, dozens of huge bright lights hit from all angles, illuminating this underground floor that no one cared about at first like daytime.

Is Liang Shaolong the kind of person who would wait until the day of the opening ceremony to come with others?

On the day he received the invitation letter, he dragged Gu Hanlin here, and he must go to see the so-called "ice and snow world" on the same day.

"I originally wanted to build a real ice skating rink. But Shanghai is not as cold as the north, and the temperature is not so low. I don't have the technology to make ice rinks, and I don't have enough natural ice, so I had to build this one that looks like The real ice skating rink is a dry-land skating rink, let’s try it first. Master Liang, do you think Shanghainese will like skating?”

Because there is no heating in the basement, Luo Xiazhi is now wrapped up as a little white ferret.Gu Hanlin felt that it was not enough, so he put his own white scarf on him, making him look like a snowman from a distance.

"Hmm, where can I change my shoes, give me a try."

Liang Shaolong couldn't wait to start playing.

The roller skating rink on the first floor is as big as half a standard football field, surrounded by wooden railings.The cement floor is unique, smooth and delicate compared to the rough "cement".

There is a service bar at the entrance of the skating rink, which is divided into male and female guests. After paying the entrance fee, you can directly rent shoes and change shoes here.

In addition to shoes and disinfection equipment, the bar also provides a variety of drinks and snacks

Of course, if you don’t want to wear other people’s shoes, you can go upstairs directly. The sporting goods department upstairs not only has the latest roller skates, but also various helmets for safety.

If conditions permit, there are coaches who can take the skating——Luo Xiazhi invited a group of skating masters from the Northeast, including men and women, all tall, beautiful and vigorous.

In addition to teaching, they also perform two performances every day.There is a fee for teaching, and watching the performance is free, as long as you buy an admission ticket, you can come in and watch it.

Although Liang Shaolong was roller skating for the first time, he was really talented. After falling twice, he quickly mastered the essentials of balance and began to glide cheerfully on the ice rink where he was alone.

Not long after, except for the sick Luo Xiazhi, A Le, Li Ye, and even Gu Hanlin let go of their restraint and started playing happily.

Leaning against the bar, Luo Xiazhi squinted his eyes, watching them chasing and frolicking with each other, in a trance, he would recall the scene he "saw" when he was in a coma.

In the recent period of time, he always thought of it from time to time, that scene seemed to be "in a dream", but it was extremely real.

Could it be that in another world, he didn't die, but just fell and passed out?

Zhuang Shengxiao dreams of butterflies, is this just a dream world?

Lowering his head, he touched the wound on his chest.

The hideous wound that almost stabbed the heart has scabbed over now, and it is slightly itchy.

It was at the critical moment of life and death that he returned to the "original" world and met his mother, Ms. Wu.But after being rescued successfully, he stayed in the "now" world again.

Does it mean that if he "dies" in "this" world...

"Li Ye, Gu Hanlin, don't go too far! Don't chase me!"

On the ice rink, Liang Shaolong, who was "clamped" by Gu Hanlin and Li Ye, screamed again and again, and then begged for mercy frequently.Gu Hanlin laughed arrogantly and drove him all the way to the corner.The whole skating rink is full of joyful air.

He used to feel that he was extremely lonely in this world, like a small boat in the sea, without direction or companion.

But now, he has a lover, a friend, and a career of his own.

This made him... how willing to let go.

The author has something to say: Gu Hanlin: I am my mother's "son-in-law", that's right!

Rorschach: ...

Have you ever played that kind of ancient roller skating?They are not the current roller skating shoes, but the kind of four-wheel roller skates. When you wear them, you just tie the straps directly to your original shoes.It was very popular in the [-]s, with disco music playing in the roller skating rink, and "bad kids" wandering around in it, haha ​​(exposing age)
