Xu Qinglan's bedroom is on the third floor, the ground is equivalent to the ceiling on the second floor, there is no such thing as the so-called floor being too damp is bad for joints.
But, but it is, after all, it is cold marble, a thin layer of quilt is spread on it, almost equal to nothing, Liu Xiaodie's small body is lying on it, it is like lying flat on the shoulders, lying on the side with the hips, Lie on the stomach and press the chest, in short, no matter how I lie down, I feel uncomfortable.
Gu Shuofeng simply rolled the quilt around his body, there were several layers under his body, and finally softened a lot, and then he fell into a deep sleep.
She was arching around like a caterpillar below, Xu Qinglan watched on the bed, until she stopped moving and her breathing gradually became longer, then she closed her eyes tiredly.
I can't be so passive anymore, this woman has never been a law-abiding person, she has to do something.
Waking up early the next morning, the bed was empty, Xu Qinglan had already left at some point, Gu Shuofeng was sitting on the floor, yawning sleepily.
She is usually very alert when she sleeps. Is the hostess lighter than a cat?She didn't notice any movement.
Woke up, dressed and washed, it was getting late, Gu Shuofeng didn't bother to eat breakfast, and went out with his handbag.
The driver, Old Wang, was squatting by the door, smoking a cigarette and chatting with others. When he saw her coming out, he quickly crushed the cigarette butt.
"Miss Liu!"
"Ok?"
Lao Wang came over with a smile, "Miss ordered, you can take my car if you want to go out."
Gu Shuofeng glanced at the classic car parked not far away. It was different from yesterday's license plate, but it was also Feng's car.
Of course, it would be better to have a special car.
Gu Shuofeng got into the car and directed him to go back to Liu Xiaodie's home in Mijing Hutong first, and bring the money that belonged to Liu Xiaodie first.
The door of Liu Xiaodie's house was closed tightly, and the double-leaf wooden door was bolted. Gu Shuofeng took photos for a long time before he heard an old lady's voice.
"Who is it? What are you shooting early in the morning? It's disturbing my second child to sleep!"
"it's me."
"Who? Three girls?"
The door opened in response, and Mrs. Liu smiled when she saw that it was her daughter.
"I still thought you were asleep in the house, did you go out early in the morning?"
The daring lover has no idea that his daughter hasn't come home for two days.
The car couldn't get into the alley, the driver was waiting outside the alley, Gu Shuofeng went into the yard alone, and the old lady Liu pushed behind her ass, chanting all the time.
"I see that you have added a cheongsam again. This is the second time this month. If you continue to suffer like this, the family will be shut down! Don't think about it, think about Brother Yao, he should say it when he is old. Daughter-in-law, the dowry money is not a small number, if you find a way to get it together, the matchmaker's money must not be less, it's all a place to spend money."
Gu Shuofeng turned around and smiled deeply at her, "Don't tell me, I'm here for this."
"Really?" Mrs. Liu's eyes lit up, and she reached for her handbag, "Where's the money? How much?"
Gu Shuofeng followed her to grab it, turned around and walked into the house.
"It's not about money, it's about kissing."
"What dear?"
Seeing that there were only a dozen yuan in the handbag, Mrs. Liu frowned in disgust, but she still picked it up and stuffed it into her pocket.
Gu Shuofeng pretended not to see it.
"It's a big boss I know. His cousin is at the age of marriage. Logically speaking, he doesn't like our family's conditions. But the boss is a little bit interested in me, so he wants to help make a deal. Once it's done, Brother Yao But I won’t worry about the rest of my life after flying on the branch.”
This is great news, Mrs. Liu's eyes are straightened.
"That's great! You must help Brother Yao well!"
"That's natural. I came back this time to get the stub. I must take care of such a big event. I will go buy some meeting gifts in a while, and then I will order two sets of suits for Brother Yao. The restaurant has to order everything. First Impressions have to be good."
"Yes, yes, yes! This is a must! The young lady of a rich family is particular about it!"
Mrs. Liu went into the house, and she probably scraped together 100 yuan to come out.
"Save some flowers."
Gu Shuofeng sneered, "I'm a lady of yours. Any face powder you put on is imported from France, and it costs more than 100 yuan. What do you do with such a small amount?"
"How fast is 100?!" Mrs. Liu clicked her tongue in distress, "Then how much does it cost to meet? What if they don't like it anymore?"
"There is money in the family, and what leaks out between the teeth is enough for us to eat and drink for the rest of our lives. If you feel so distressed that you don't dare to try, then forget it. I don't bother to waste this effort, and it's not for me to marry a daughter-in-law. .”
Mrs. Liu said angrily: "Look at what you said, your brother is well-off, how can you be missing?"
"Who says it's not? Brother Yao is rich, how can he not be filial to your mother?"
Old lady Liu gritted her teeth, and then went back to the house to get the stub out, but she didn't hand it to Gu Shuofeng, but put it in her arms.
"I'll go with you to get the money."
Liu Xiaodie rolled her eyes, "What do you mean, mom? You don't believe me? Afraid that I swallowed the money? This deposit is mine after all. If I really swallowed it, I wouldn't have given it to you in the first place."
This stub is all of Liu Xiaodie's savings. The Liu family asks her for living expenses every month, not to mention, they even use force and force to steal her stub. Liu Xiaodie is not a good person, but he is not a bad person. He has a grudge against his family. There is hatred, but also filial piety, although dissatisfied, finally compromised.
Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes when she saw the third girl, and her tone was not very good. Thinking that she was still angry at the thing that forced her to hand over the stub, she was afraid that it would further stimulate her younger brother's marriage, so she quickly changed her words.
"Mom didn't mean that, then, then you go, save some money."
Only then did Gu Shuofeng soften his tone a little.
"Okay, let Brother Yao get up too, we'll have lunch later, and let's make suits together."
After leaving Liu's small courtyard, it was not until he got into the car that Gu Shuofeng opened the stub and took a look. It wasn't much, and it wasn't too little, it was ten thousand.
The [-] yuan household in those days was no joke, this Liu Xiaodie was richer than expected.
After going to the bank to withdraw a thousand, Gu Shuofeng rushed to the hotel without stopping.
The hotel was empty, the owner said that someone came to take Qiangwei early in the morning, the owner did not know who it was.
Gu Shuofeng had a vague guess in his heart, and drove to Wanxiang Tower again.
Wanxiang Building is closed during the day, but the door is open for overnight guests to leave.
Usually the bustard was still sleeping at this time, but today it was rare to direct the hanging of colorful silk in the lobby, and when she saw her coming, she greeted her with a smile.
"Isn't this the lady who came here yesterday? What's the matter?"
"Where is Rose?"
The old bustard was stunned, "Yo, you came at the wrong time, Qiangwei was just redeemed."
"Redeemed? Who?"
"I don't know about that. Whoever gives the money will give it to him. We are a small business, how can we dare to inquire about the origin of our customers?"
After running all morning, I was busy in vain.
Gu Shuofeng directed the driver to take her to the commercial street. At this time, the commercial street was already very prosperous, with everything needed for food and clothing.
Gu Shuofeng ordered several sets of cheongsams, changed two sets on the spot and took them away, bought some underwear, specially bought a thick sponge mattress, and bought some odds and ends before heading back home.
When she got home, Xu Qinglan had already returned. She watched her carrying her big and small bags upstairs, and ignored her. When she finished her work, she just had dinner.
"It's still convenient to have a car. I have to take a rickshaw. I definitely can't do so many things this morning."
The cooks of Feng's family are good at cooking, and they cook meat and vegetables properly. Most of them are Gu Shuofeng's favorite food, especially the sweet and sour short ribs, which is almost greedy. Gu Shuofeng eats almost all of that plate, and Xu Qinglan only eats it. Eat a piece, or may not eat a piece.
Gu Shuofeng ate and drank enough, leaned on the back of the chair and elegantly folded her legs and wiped her mouth. Even though she was feasting, she still looked like a well-bred and gentle lady.
Gu Shuofeng casually asked, "How much is the ransom?"
Just as Xu Qinglan picked up the water glass, she turned her eyes and glanced at Gu Shuofeng, without saying a word.
Gu Shuofeng asked again: "Where did you send him?"
Xu Qinglan didn't take a sip of the water glass she picked up, and put it down again.
"I redeemed it, so naturally I have the final say, so you don't have to worry about it."
"How can I not worry? That woman used to be a girl from Ge Jiu's family."
Xu Qinglan had already taken the deed of sale, so she naturally saw the name of her old employer, which was Ge Jiu's daughter-in-law Shen Cuiyun.
There is nothing special about Shen Cuiyun, except that she is more vicious than ordinary Kuotai. She bumped into Ge Jiuqiang and Qiangwei. She did not blame Ge Jiu, but Qiangwei seduced the master. The scald on Qiangwei's face was done by this poisonous woman.
She ruined Qiangwei's face and was still angry, so she sold Qiangwei into Wanxianglou. The old bustard was afraid of Ge Jiu, so she didn't dare not buy it, so she only paid 300 yuan.
Fortunately, Qiangwei had a great life, she thought about it after crying, making troubles and dying twice, otherwise, it would be another human life.
When Xu Qinglan saw the contract of selling herself, she understood that Gu Shuofeng was not just looking for fun. Although she still wanted to have fun, at least she did not forget her mission while having fun.
Because of this deed of sale, Xu Qinglan's mood somewhat improved, so she ignored the thick mattress that Gu Shuofeng bought.
"Don't go anywhere these two days, I hired a teacher for you, learn etiquette, and simple spoken English and French, there will be a banquet at the beginning of next month, it is very important, people from the British and French consulates will go there, and Ge Jiu will go too, Don't embarrass me."
"You said you have something to do in the afternoon, so that's it?"
"Correct."
To Gu Shuofeng, these things were all pediatrics. In order not to collapse his personality, he could only pretend that he would not learn slowly. This pretended to last for half a month.
Xu Qinglan was busy every day. Workers from the weaving factory kept coming to inform them. The mastermind who smashed the machine was soon found out. Gu Shuofeng didn't know how to deal with it. He only knew that the mastermind was unscathed, and he was probably instigated. .
Xu Qinglan's re-ordered machines will not arrive in a few days. Gu Shuofeng first asked the ship's master craftsman to help repair the broken machines. After repairing two machines, all the workers were recalled to study and compete for posts. They not only learned how to operate the machines , but also learn how to repair and maintain.
This busy work will take at least another month.
Uncle Zhao didn't understand why she brought everyone back. There were only two machines in total, including the newly ordered ones that were still at sea, so it wouldn't take so many people. There was no need to waste labor.
How Xu Qinglan explained to Uncle Zhao, Gu Shuofeng still doesn't know, all she knows is that Uncle Zhao accompanied Xu Qinglan to the weaving factory a few more times, and gathered the workers who knew civil engineering together, saying that it was going to be rebuilt storehouse.
It will take at least four months for the machine to be shipped. During this time, some of the workers who competed for jobs continued to use new machine learning to produce, and the rest were all built warehouses under the hands of workers who knew civil engineering. Manpower was not wasted, and wages were naturally not in vain.
As for why the warehouse was rebuilt, Xu Qinglan knew it, Zhao Shu obviously knew it too, Gu Shuofeng didn't know and wasn't interested.
The heroine still has a certain talent for business management, and with Uncle Zhao as her assistant, Gu Shuofeng believes that there is a high probability that their decision will not be wrong.
Besides, her task is to organize CP and collect data, whether the Feng family will fall or not has nothing to do with her.
Gu Shuofeng didn't care what Xu Qinglan did, but she was very dissatisfied with one thing. Xu Qinglan seemed to dislike her very much. She couldn't get used to that kind of cheongsam that she ordered. The front hollow is gone, and the slits on both sides are also much lower.
The cheongsam itself is a self-cultivating garment, and the slits are too low, which means that you can't walk. Imagine the way of walking in a kimono. Although it is not to that extent, Gu Shuofeng is still very dissatisfied.
She has never been a traditional woman, and she doesn't want to be restricted by a few steps when walking.
She asked to return it for revision, and the delivery girl looked at Xu Qinglan in embarrassment.
Xu Qinglan was sitting on the sofa drinking tea and flipping through newspapers, she looked like a veteran cadre, without raising her eyelids, she dismissed her with a simple sentence.
"I asked you to change it. If you don't like to wear it, you can wear pants. I made two suits for you."
Gu Shuofeng glanced at the suit Xu Qinglan was wearing, it was a women's suit designed and modified by Xu Qinglan herself.
Black trousers, a black vest, and a simple white shirt inside. The monotony is a bit monotonous, but it really fits Xu Qinglan's current identity, especially the moment Xu Qinglan raised her eyes, her eyes were cold, and her long black hair was hanging down. On the shoulders, there is no sense of gracefulness, only the chill that makes people unable to look directly at it.
This really depends on people's clothes, Xu Qinglan looks at it now, even more cold and solemn than Xu Qinglan in this world.
It's right to think about it, after all, this world is a society ruled by law, and if you are not careful here, you may die.
Xu Qinglan wants to be a strong woman, that's Xu Qinglan's business, Gu Shuofeng doesn't want to waste her good figure.
Forget about a suit, and finally wear a Republic of China. Wouldn’t it be a waste not to wear a cheongsam?
She went upstairs with her cheongsam, and she changed it soon. It was not as inconvenient to walk as she imagined, but it was slightly lower than ordinary cheongsam.
"Just wear this tonight."
"Ok?"
"Six o'clock in the evening, banquet."
Gu Shuofeng: "..."
This Feng Zhuoran is really... picky!She accompanied her to the dinner party, and she didn't customize an evening dress for her, but let her wear a cheongsam that she had ordered at a roadside shop?
Of course, this casualness is not really casual. Gu Shuofeng has always had a high vision. This cheongsam cost her nearly 1000 yuan, which is almost like a rose.
As soon as Xu Qinglan was slandered, Qin Xiang came over with a jewelry box and handed it to Gu Shuofeng with envy.
"This is from the eldest lady."
When I opened it, it was a set of mutton fat jade jewelry, from earrings to necklace pendants to bracelets, and even brooches were all inlaid jade styles that are popular nowadays, and the workmanship was very exquisite.
Liu Xiaodie has jewelry herself, but they are relatively frivolous, such as butterfly brooches, which are not suitable for serious occasions.
Gu Shuofeng knew the goods, and she could tell at a glance that this mutton fat jade was worth a lot.
——I'm sorry, I was stingy just now, I take it back.
After receiving such an expensive gift, with Liu Xiaodie's personality, she naturally had to be polite.
"What precious jewellery, I...how can I accept it?"
Xu Qinglan turned a page of the newspaper without raising her head.
"It's not for you, it's just for you to wear it, don't let me lose it or damage it."
Gu Shuofeng: "..."
Take back the apology just now!Stingy or that stingy!
In any case, Feng Zhuoran invited the teacher and asked her to wear suet jade as a facade. Obviously, this dinner was extraordinary.
Gu, who has been lazy a lot since entering this dungeon, lazily flipped through the plot and found this paragraph.
It turned out that the former British consul resigned and the new consul took office.
Gu Shuofeng carefully read the original text.
During this banquet, Ge Jiu tried his best to curry favor with the new consul. Seeing that the consul was very interested in the beautiful Feng Zhuoran, he drugged Feng Zhuoran's wine and sent her to the consul's lounge.
That medicine is commonly used in Yanhualiu Lane to enhance the excitement, and it is generally used as an aromatherapy. Once taken internally, the medicine has a strong effect, and Feng Zhuoran is confused...
Gu Shuofeng raised his eyebrows.
No wonder later Feng Zhuoran clearly saw that the male classmate was interested in her, and he pretended not to understand and deliberately avoided it, probably because he felt that he was dirty, no matter how open-minded he was, after all, he was still a person of the old age and could not be completely open-minded.
Gee...
What a pity.
Feng Zhuoran was threatened by Ge Jiu because of this incident. It would be a fatal injury for a lady of great family to lose her innocence. Much ridicule and humiliation.
In the original plot, Feng Zhuoran still failed to beat Ge Jiu in the end, became a seller and went abroad, and completely withdrew from Shanghai Bund.
If you want Gu Shuofeng to say, this Feng Zhuoran is stupid, he has already suffered all the losses, why didn't he use the British consul to hit Ge Jiu hard, revenge for revenge, how could he take advantage of his grandson for nothing?
At six o'clock in the evening, Xu Qinglan brought Gu Shuofeng to the banquet site, along with Lou Sheng who was in charge of personal protection, and Uncle Zhao who was in charge of introduction.
Naturally, Lou Sheng couldn't go into the banquet hall, so he had to wait outside. The three of Xu Qinglan went in and met the banquet manager, the dog leg of the police station.
The dog leg led them to meet the new consul Johnson.
Johnson was chatting cordially with Ge Jiu, or in other words, was listening to Ge Jiu unilaterally blowing rainbow farts, and when he raised his eyes, he fixed on Xu Qinglan's side.
"Wow! This is the legendary oriental beauty? It's beautiful!"
The venue was very noisy, so Gu Shuofeng heard this sentence from a distance, but Xu Qinglan and the others obviously didn't hear it, and they still greeted the famous ladies and rich people from time to time.
Ge Jiu leaned over to Johnson's ear and whispered something, the surroundings were too noisy, Gu Shuofeng couldn't hear clearly, Johnson raised his shallow British eyebrows at Ge Jiu, raised his thumb, and Ge Jiu smiled obscenely | Suo.
Gu Shuofeng glanced at the heroine in question, she didn't know what she was about to face, she smiled gracefully, and she was almost similar to Xu Qinglan in a daze, Xu Qinglan's pervert was also like this, she was usually so cold Scum, as soon as he attended the banquet, he smiled amiably.
Gu Shuofeng suddenly didn't want to care about her, and let her fend for herself, but after thinking about it, she couldn't, she had to remove all obstacles on the way to form CP.
——Thank you Feng Zhuoran, I will save your life.
Gu Shuofeng had no doubt at all that the reason why Feng Zhuoran died alone was inseparable from this matter.
The dog leg led Xu Qinglan and the others to meet Johnson. Johnson warmly invited Xu Qinglan to chat with him later, and Xu Qinglan nodded with a smile.
"It's a great honor. I just have something I want to talk to Mr. Johnson."
"That's great, then go to my lounge later and talk about it."
"OK."
Gu Shuofeng almost lost his expression when he heard it.
Is Feng Zhuoran really stupid or fake?Can we be a little defensive?
How could a girl with a yellow flower be in the same room with a strange man casually?
Banquets are usually boring, just taking the opportunity to socialize and boast about business, Xu Qinglan is busy getting to know various people under the leadership of Uncle Zhao, and by the way, introduce her new righteous sister.
Most of these famous and dignitaries had visited the city that never sleeps, so they naturally recognized Liu Xiaodie, each of them looked strange, and couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the Feng family's gourd.
But it was all playful, and no one pointed it out. They all smiled and said congratulations, and called Miss Liu by the way.
Almost all the people arrived, Police Sergeant Lu introduced the new Consul Johnson in public, and there was applause from the audience.
After finally finishing the introduction, I was finally able to find a place to sit down and eat something to catch my breath. Xu Qinglan was pulled aside by several members of the chamber of commerce to socialize. He sat next to her with two glasses of wine.
A cup was handed to her, and Ge Jiuye touched the rim of the cup with a ding.
"I haven't seen you for a few days. Congratulations on being promoted to the foster daughter of the Feng family. Come, let me toast you."
Gu Shuofeng glanced at the scarlet liquid in the glass, shook it lightly, and didn't drink it.
"Where is the reward if there is no effort? This is what I deserve, and there is no congratulations."
Ge Jiuye glanced at the wine she didn't drink, and didn't force it, he smiled and leaned back on the sofa.
"Where did you put that roll of film?"
"I originally wanted to send it to the newspaper, but it was accidentally exposed, and I lost a fortune for clues. I really feel sorry for me."
"It's good to expose it, so as not to really post it, my wife will get angry, and you and Miss Feng will suffer."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Shuofeng suddenly stood up.
Ge Jiuye was startled, "What are you doing?"
Gu Shuofeng didn't even bother to put down his wine glass, and hurried towards Xu Qinglan who was not far away.
Ge Jiuye subconsciously raised his hand to grab her, but he didn't.
Johnson was passing the wine glass to Xu Qinglan's hand, with a gentlemanly smile on his face, he not only toasted, but also invited her to the lounge for a chat.
Several people toasted, including Uncle Zhao, who held the ground and raised their heads to drink.
Gu Shuofeng took two steps, stepped forward and snatched the wine glass from Xu Qinglan's hand.
"Miss is not good at drinking, let me drink for her."
After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and downed the glass of red wine, licked his wet lips with the tip of his bright red tongue, and smiled so charmingly that the famous lady beside him snorted coldly.
Uncle Zhao frowned and said, "Don't mess around!"
Xu Qinglan glanced at Ge Jiuye behind Gu Shuofeng, then at the goblet in her hand, and reached for it.
"You can't be rude to Mr. Johnson. Even if you don't drink it again, you must drink Mr. Johnson's dust-cleaning wine."
After finishing speaking, Xu Qinglan lowered the rim of the glass and touched Johnson's wine glass, as a respect.

感谢在2020-06-1419:11:34~2020-06-1517:29:23期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~
Thanks to the little angel who threw the landmine: I don’t know the truth, eat melon and soil dog, today I have candy to eat 1;
Thanks to the little angels of irrigation nutrient solution: 19 bottles of Red Butterfly; 12 bottles of really good; 10 bottles of Daoyi;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
But, but it is, after all, it is cold marble, a thin layer of quilt is spread on it, almost equal to nothing, Liu Xiaodie's small body is lying on it, it is like lying flat on the shoulders, lying on the side with the hips, Lie on the stomach and press the chest, in short, no matter how I lie down, I feel uncomfortable.

The driver, Old Wang, was squatting by the door, smoking a cigarette and chatting with others. When he saw her coming out, he quickly crushed the cigarette butt.
"Miss Liu!"
"Ok?"
Lao Wang came over with a smile, "Miss ordered, you can take my car if you want to go out."
Gu Shuofeng glanced at the classic car parked not far away. It was different from yesterday's license plate, but it was also Feng's car.
Of course, it would be better to have a special car.
Gu Shuofeng got into the car and directed him to go back to Liu Xiaodie's home in Mijing Hutong first, and bring the money that belonged to Liu Xiaodie first.

"Yes, yes, yes! This is a must! The young lady of a rich family is particular about it!"
Mrs. Liu went into the house, and she probably scraped together 100 yuan to come out.

Gu Shuofeng directed the driver to take her to the commercial street. At this time, the commercial street was already very prosperous, with everything needed for food and clothing.
Gu Shuofeng ordered several sets of cheongsams, changed two sets on the spot and took them away, bought some underwear, specially bought a thick sponge mattress, and bought some odds and ends before heading back home.
When she got home, Xu Qinglan had already returned. She watched her carrying her big and small bags upstairs, and ignored her. When she finished her work, she just had dinner.
"It's still convenient to have a car. I have to take a rickshaw. I definitely can't do so many things this morning."
The cooks of Feng's family are good at cooking, and they cook meat and vegetables properly. Most of them are Gu Shuofeng's favorite food, especially the sweet and sour short ribs, which is almost greedy. Gu Shuofeng eats almost all of that plate, and Xu Qinglan only eats it. Eat a piece, or may not eat a piece.
Gu Shuofeng ate and drank enough, leaned on the back of the chair and elegantly folded her legs and wiped her mouth. Even though she was feasting, she still looked like a well-bred and gentle lady.
Gu Shuofeng casually asked, "How much is the ransom?"
Just as Xu Qinglan picked up the water glass, she turned her eyes and glanced at Gu Shuofeng, without saying a word.
Gu Shuofeng asked again: "Where did you send him?"
Xu Qinglan didn't take a sip of the water glass she picked up, and put it down again.
"I redeemed it, so naturally I have the final say, so you don't have to worry about it."
"How can I not worry? That woman used to be a girl from Ge Jiu's family."
Xu Qinglan had already taken the deed of sale, so she naturally saw the name of her old employer, which was Ge Jiu's daughter-in-law Shen Cuiyun.
There is nothing special about Shen Cuiyun, except that she is more vicious than ordinary Kuotai. She bumped into Ge Jiuqiang and Qiangwei. She did not blame Ge Jiu, but Qiangwei seduced the master. The scald on Qiangwei's face was done by this poisonous woman.
She ruined Qiangwei's face and was still angry, so she sold Qiangwei into Wanxianglou. The old bustard was afraid of Ge Jiu, so she didn't dare not buy it, so she only paid 300 yuan.
Fortunately, Qiangwei had a great life, she thought about it after crying, making troubles and dying twice, otherwise, it would be another human life.
When Xu Qinglan saw the contract of selling herself, she understood that Gu Shuofeng was not just looking for fun. Although she still wanted to have fun, at least she did not forget her mission while having fun.
Because of this deed of sale, Xu Qinglan's mood somewhat improved, so she ignored the thick mattress that Gu Shuofeng bought.
"Don't go anywhere these two days, I hired a teacher for you, learn etiquette, and simple spoken English and French, there will be a banquet at the beginning of next month, it is very important, people from the British and French consulates will go there, and Ge Jiu will go too, Don't embarrass me."
"You said you have something to do in the afternoon, so that's it?"
"Correct."
To Gu Shuofeng, these things were all pediatrics. In order not to collapse his personality, he could only pretend that he would not learn slowly. This pretended to last for half a month.
Xu Qinglan was busy every day. Workers from the weaving factory kept coming to inform them. The mastermind who smashed the machine was soon found out. Gu Shuofeng didn't know how to deal with it. He only knew that the mastermind was unscathed, and he was probably instigated. .
Xu Qinglan's re-ordered machines will not arrive in a few days. Gu Shuofeng first asked the ship's master craftsman to help repair the broken machines. After repairing two machines, all the workers were recalled to study and compete for posts. They not only learned how to operate the machines , but also learn how to repair and maintain.
This busy work will take at least another month.
Uncle Zhao didn't understand why she brought everyone back. There were only two machines in total, including the newly ordered ones that were still at sea, so it wouldn't take so many people. There was no need to waste labor.
How Xu Qinglan explained to Uncle Zhao, Gu Shuofeng still doesn't know, all she knows is that Uncle Zhao accompanied Xu Qinglan to the weaving factory a few more times, and gathered the workers who knew civil engineering together, saying that it was going to be rebuilt storehouse.
It will take at least four months for the machine to be shipped. During this time, some of the workers who competed for jobs continued to use new machine learning to produce, and the rest were all built warehouses under the hands of workers who knew civil engineering. Manpower was not wasted, and wages were naturally not in vain.
As for why the warehouse was rebuilt, Xu Qinglan knew it, Zhao Shu obviously knew it too, Gu Shuofeng didn't know and wasn't interested.
The heroine still has a certain talent for business management, and with Uncle Zhao as her assistant, Gu Shuofeng believes that there is a high probability that their decision will not be wrong.
Besides, her task is to organize CP and collect data, whether the Feng family will fall or not has nothing to do with her.
Gu Shuofeng didn't care what Xu Qinglan did, but she was very dissatisfied with one thing. Xu Qinglan seemed to dislike her very much. She couldn't get used to that kind of cheongsam that she ordered. The front hollow is gone, and the slits on both sides are also much lower.
The cheongsam itself is a self-cultivating garment, and the slits are too low, which means that you can't walk. Imagine the way of walking in a kimono. Although it is not to that extent, Gu Shuofeng is still very dissatisfied.
She has never been a traditional woman, and she doesn't want to be restricted by a few steps when walking.
She asked to return it for revision, and the delivery girl looked at Xu Qinglan in embarrassment.
Xu Qinglan was sitting on the sofa drinking tea and flipping through newspapers, she looked like a veteran cadre, without raising her eyelids, she dismissed her with a simple sentence.
"I asked you to change it. If you don't like to wear it, you can wear pants. I made two suits for you."
Gu Shuofeng glanced at the suit Xu Qinglan was wearing, it was a women's suit designed and modified by Xu Qinglan herself.
Black trousers, a black vest, and a simple white shirt inside. The monotony is a bit monotonous, but it really fits Xu Qinglan's current identity, especially the moment Xu Qinglan raised her eyes, her eyes were cold, and her long black hair was hanging down. On the shoulders, there is no sense of gracefulness, only the chill that makes people unable to look directly at it.
This really depends on people's clothes, Xu Qinglan looks at it now, even more cold and solemn than Xu Qinglan in this world.
It's right to think about it, after all, this world is a society ruled by law, and if you are not careful here, you may die.
Xu Qinglan wants to be a strong woman, that's Xu Qinglan's business, Gu Shuofeng doesn't want to waste her good figure.
Forget about a suit, and finally wear a Republic of China. Wouldn’t it be a waste not to wear a cheongsam?
She went upstairs with her cheongsam, and she changed it soon. It was not as inconvenient to walk as she imagined, but it was slightly lower than ordinary cheongsam.
"Just wear this tonight."
"Ok?"
"Six o'clock in the evening, banquet."
Gu Shuofeng: "..."
This Feng Zhuoran is really... picky!She accompanied her to the dinner party, and she didn't customize an evening dress for her, but let her wear a cheongsam that she had ordered at a roadside shop?
Of course, this casualness is not really casual. Gu Shuofeng has always had a high vision. This cheongsam cost her nearly 1000 yuan, which is almost like a rose.
As soon as Xu Qinglan was slandered, Qin Xiang came over with a jewelry box and handed it to Gu Shuofeng with envy.
"This is from the eldest lady."
When I opened it, it was a set of mutton fat jade jewelry, from earrings to necklace pendants to bracelets, and even brooches were all inlaid jade styles that are popular nowadays, and the workmanship was very exquisite.
Liu Xiaodie has jewelry herself, but they are relatively frivolous, such as butterfly brooches, which are not suitable for serious occasions.
Gu Shuofeng knew the goods, and she could tell at a glance that this mutton fat jade was worth a lot.
——I'm sorry, I was stingy just now, I take it back.
After receiving such an expensive gift, with Liu Xiaodie's personality, she naturally had to be polite.
"What precious jewellery, I...how can I accept it?"
Xu Qinglan turned a page of the newspaper without raising her head.
"It's not for you, it's just for you to wear it, don't let me lose it or damage it."
Gu Shuofeng: "..."
Take back the apology just now!Stingy or that stingy!
In any case, Feng Zhuoran invited the teacher and asked her to wear suet jade as a facade. Obviously, this dinner was extraordinary.
Gu, who has been lazy a lot since entering this dungeon, lazily flipped through the plot and found this paragraph.
It turned out that the former British consul resigned and the new consul took office.
Gu Shuofeng carefully read the original text.
During this banquet, Ge Jiu tried his best to curry favor with the new consul. Seeing that the consul was very interested in the beautiful Feng Zhuoran, he drugged Feng Zhuoran's wine and sent her to the consul's lounge.
That medicine is commonly used in Yanhualiu Lane to enhance the excitement, and it is generally used as an aromatherapy. Once taken internally, the medicine has a strong effect, and Feng Zhuoran is confused...
Gu Shuofeng raised his eyebrows.
No wonder later Feng Zhuoran clearly saw that the male classmate was interested in her, and he pretended not to understand and deliberately avoided it, probably because he felt that he was dirty, no matter how open-minded he was, after all, he was still a person of the old age and could not be completely open-minded.
Gee...
What a pity.
Feng Zhuoran was threatened by Ge Jiu because of this incident. It would be a fatal injury for a lady of great family to lose her innocence. Much ridicule and humiliation.
In the original plot, Feng Zhuoran still failed to beat Ge Jiu in the end, became a seller and went abroad, and completely withdrew from Shanghai Bund.
If you want Gu Shuofeng to say, this Feng Zhuoran is stupid, he has already suffered all the losses, why didn't he use the British consul to hit Ge Jiu hard, revenge for revenge, how could he take advantage of his grandson for nothing?
At six o'clock in the evening, Xu Qinglan brought Gu Shuofeng to the banquet site, along with Lou Sheng who was in charge of personal protection, and Uncle Zhao who was in charge of introduction.
Naturally, Lou Sheng couldn't go into the banquet hall, so he had to wait outside. The three of Xu Qinglan went in and met the banquet manager, the dog leg of the police station.
The dog leg led them to meet the new consul Johnson.
Johnson was chatting cordially with Ge Jiu, or in other words, was listening to Ge Jiu unilaterally blowing rainbow farts, and when he raised his eyes, he fixed on Xu Qinglan's side.
"Wow! This is the legendary oriental beauty? It's beautiful!"
The venue was very noisy, so Gu Shuofeng heard this sentence from a distance, but Xu Qinglan and the others obviously didn't hear it, and they still greeted the famous ladies and rich people from time to time.
Ge Jiu leaned over to Johnson's ear and whispered something, the surroundings were too noisy, Gu Shuofeng couldn't hear clearly, Johnson raised his shallow British eyebrows at Ge Jiu, raised his thumb, and Ge Jiu smiled obscenely | Suo.
Gu Shuofeng glanced at the heroine in question, she didn't know what she was about to face, she smiled gracefully, and she was almost similar to Xu Qinglan in a daze, Xu Qinglan's pervert was also like this, she was usually so cold Scum, as soon as he attended the banquet, he smiled amiably.
Gu Shuofeng suddenly didn't want to care about her, and let her fend for herself, but after thinking about it, she couldn't, she had to remove all obstacles on the way to form CP.
——Thank you Feng Zhuoran, I will save your life.
Gu Shuofeng had no doubt at all that the reason why Feng Zhuoran died alone was inseparable from this matter.
The dog leg led Xu Qinglan and the others to meet Johnson. Johnson warmly invited Xu Qinglan to chat with him later, and Xu Qinglan nodded with a smile.
"It's a great honor. I just have something I want to talk to Mr. Johnson."
"That's great, then go to my lounge later and talk about it."
"OK."
Gu Shuofeng almost lost his expression when he heard it.
Is Feng Zhuoran really stupid or fake?Can we be a little defensive?
How could a girl with a yellow flower be in the same room with a strange man casually?
Banquets are usually boring, just taking the opportunity to socialize and boast about business, Xu Qinglan is busy getting to know various people under the leadership of Uncle Zhao, and by the way, introduce her new righteous sister.
Most of these famous and dignitaries had visited the city that never sleeps, so they naturally recognized Liu Xiaodie, each of them looked strange, and couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the Feng family's gourd.
But it was all playful, and no one pointed it out. They all smiled and said congratulations, and called Miss Liu by the way.
Almost all the people arrived, Police Sergeant Lu introduced the new Consul Johnson in public, and there was applause from the audience.
After finally finishing the introduction, I was finally able to find a place to sit down and eat something to catch my breath. Xu Qinglan was pulled aside by several members of the chamber of commerce to socialize. He sat next to her with two glasses of wine.
A cup was handed to her, and Ge Jiuye touched the rim of the cup with a ding.
"I haven't seen you for a few days. Congratulations on being promoted to the foster daughter of the Feng family. Come, let me toast you."
Gu Shuofeng glanced at the scarlet liquid in the glass, shook it lightly, and didn't drink it.
"Where is the reward if there is no effort? This is what I deserve, and there is no congratulations."
Ge Jiuye glanced at the wine she didn't drink, and didn't force it, he smiled and leaned back on the sofa.
"Where did you put that roll of film?"
"I originally wanted to send it to the newspaper, but it was accidentally exposed, and I lost a fortune for clues. I really feel sorry for me."
"It's good to expose it, so as not to really post it, my wife will get angry, and you and Miss Feng will suffer."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Shuofeng suddenly stood up.
Ge Jiuye was startled, "What are you doing?"
Gu Shuofeng didn't even bother to put down his wine glass, and hurried towards Xu Qinglan who was not far away.
Ge Jiuye subconsciously raised his hand to grab her, but he didn't.
Johnson was passing the wine glass to Xu Qinglan's hand, with a gentlemanly smile on his face, he not only toasted, but also invited her to the lounge for a chat.
Several people toasted, including Uncle Zhao, who held the ground and raised their heads to drink.
Gu Shuofeng took two steps, stepped forward and snatched the wine glass from Xu Qinglan's hand.
"Miss is not good at drinking, let me drink for her."
After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and downed the glass of red wine, licked his wet lips with the tip of his bright red tongue, and smiled so charmingly that the famous lady beside him snorted coldly.
Uncle Zhao frowned and said, "Don't mess around!"
Xu Qinglan glanced at Ge Jiuye behind Gu Shuofeng, then at the goblet in her hand, and reached for it.
"You can't be rude to Mr. Johnson. Even if you don't drink it again, you must drink Mr. Johnson's dust-cleaning wine."
After finishing speaking, Xu Qinglan lowered the rim of the glass and touched Johnson's wine glass, as a respect.
