The wealthy man who wears books
Chapter 68
If Qin Huai didn't know that Bu Lun's Chinese is so good, he would definitely think that the other party mispronounced it.
But no matter how wrong you are, you won't read the three words Sishijin as begonia, right?
That is to say, the Four Seasons brocade that I have worked so hard to create has been eliminated, eliminated!
Qin Huai felt that he was a bit overwhelmed, and didn't believe that the result would be true.
He subconsciously turned his head and looked at Zhong Xin. There was no sympathy or disappointment on the latter's face, and he still looked calm.But to Qin Huai's surprise, one of his hands suddenly stretched out and held his hand.
This seemed to be the first time Zhong Xin took the initiative to hold his hand like this.
His palm was warm and thick at the moment, and it seemed that there was a strange power that would make people feel safe and secure.
For some reason, Qin Huai inexplicably felt that he was not so disappointed again.
If you can't choose it, you can't choose it. At least one person knows that he has really developed a unique perfume, which can make people change into a strange smell when they are emotional.
If no one accepts it, then take it as a special souvenir shared by you and Lao Qi.
Bren on the stage put away the tenth envelope, but did not immediately announce the end of the preliminaries, but took out another envelope from his arms.It's just that this envelope looks much more refined and grand than before.
"Everyone, after announcing the ten perfumes that are shortlisted for the finals, I still have to take up a little of your precious time, because the organizing committee has another very important news to announce to you."
Qin Huai suddenly felt Zhong Xin's hand squeeze him slightly.
At the same time, he found that Brun's blue eyes were actually looking at him at this moment.
"Friends from the Chinatown fragrance industry, as the chairman of the organizing committee of this competition and the vice president of the All-European Perfume Association, I would like to congratulate the Chinatown fragrance industry first, because among you, the organizing committee Discovered a promising perfume star!"
Everyone in the hall looked at each other in blank dismay, especially the ten perfumers who had been shortlisted for the finals, and they became excited instantly.
Qin Huai felt that his hand was in the palm of Lao Qi, and sweat was slowly oozing out.
"Over the past few decades, professional engineers in the global fragrance industry and perfume industry, including old perfume groups like our François, have been working hard to do one thing, that is, to innovate traditional perfumes. As we all know, in In an era where the materials, craftsmanship and characteristics of all perfumes are becoming more and more similar, it is the highest pursuit of our industry to be able to innovate and break through the limitations of existing barriers. However, it is a pity that we have not made progress over the years. But today , this new star finally brought us a breakthrough!"
After Bu Lun said these words, among the people present, apart from Qin Huai and Zhong Xinxin who knew what he meant, An Xingsheng also felt a little restless sitting there.After all, among the participating perfumes, Anjia's "Recalling Chang'an" is also a newly developed brand.
Brun suddenly came down from the stage, walked past the expectant An Xingsheng with a few strides, walked straight to Qin Huai, and stretched out his hand.
"Mr. Qin, please come on stage with me, I have something to tell you."
Qin Huai felt his whole body shaking suddenly, and he couldn't tell whether it was excitement or nervousness.
Zhong Xin shook his hand vigorously, motioning him to stand up.
The two returned to the center of the stage. Brun opened the exquisite envelope and took out a card from it.
Most of the people in the hall did not recognize this young man dressed in Chinese style.
At this moment, seeing his handsome appearance, slender figure, and especially his smooth skin, standing next to a Caucasian guy like Brun, he didn't give in too much, showing a kind of gentle and reserved style of an oriental man.
Everyone didn't expect that the perfume designer, who was highly praised by the organizing committee and hailed as a future star, turned out to be such a beautiful young man, so they couldn't help but stare at him intently.
"Everyone, what I want to introduce to you now is this star of hope in the perfume industry, that is, this Mr. Qin Huai!"
Everyone in the hall fell silent.
"The perfume 'Four Seasons Brocade' developed by Mr. Qin uses the relationship between the perfume material and the change of human body temperature to create a dynamic and changeable novel feeling. During the preliminary tasting of the organizing committee, all members said, This new product has completely broken the current imagination of the function of perfume, and it can be said that it has completely jumped out of the framework of traditional perfume. Some judges even said that this perfume gives people a wonderful experience of "enjoying spring, summer, autumn and winter in one day". , simply beyond the imagination of today’s people.”
Speaking from a world-renowned perfume authority like Buren, it can be regarded as the highest appreciation for 'Four Seasons Brocade'.
"So Mr. Qin, after careful research, our organizing committee thinks that this perfume is far superior to the other ten shortlisted perfumes in terms of style and level, so we suggest that the competition directly set up a special Emperor's Award for it. At the same time, I personally represent France. Perfume Association, directly nominate Sishijin to participate in the All-French Perfume Expo, and hope that Mr. Qin can accept and appreciate it!"
After Brun finished speaking, he handed the card in his hand to Qin Huai, on which the words "Special Grand Prize of the Contest, awarded to Mr. Qin Huai, the owner of Sishijin Perfume" were originally written on the card.
Seeing him accepting the card, Brun saluted himself and everyone humbly. After saying thank you, he actually wanted to step down, so he quickly stopped in front of him and said with a smile:
"Mr. Qin, don't worry, you just received the supreme award that surpassed the finals. Don't you have anything to say to everyone right now?"
Qin Huai shook his head slightly, just waved his card at the crowd, and wanted to get off the stage.
At this moment, he felt very strange in his heart. Obviously, the result in front of him changed from extreme disappointment to incomparable glory, but he felt empty for no reason, as if he couldn't believe it. He just wanted to return to Zhong Xin's side right away. , will be more practical.
Of course, it would be even better if he could hold his hand again to give encouragement.
Brun opened his mouth and smiled, showing his white teeth.
"Mr. Qin is really a humble oriental talent. Well, since Mr. Qin doesn't want to say anything more, then I have something to ask you, and I hope you must give me an answer."
Qin Huai had no choice but to stop.
"Actually, this sentence is already a digression for this competition. It can only be regarded as a personal question I asked you as the president of the French François Group. That is, I want to represent the group and invite Mr. Qin to France, take a tour of our group's headquarters and R&D department, we will be responsible for the entire cost, but I wonder if Mr. Qin is interested in this?"
All the people present here are veterans. Hearing Bren's question, he knew that there was something in his words. He was basically implying that Mr. Qin, who has innovative talents, wanted him in his group and wanted to take him to Paris.
You know, this is the most prestigious spice group in the world.
Qin Huai couldn't hear his implication.
To be honest, for such a short moment, such a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.
If I agreed to him, maybe it would be the best opportunity to escape from the Zhong family completely.
However, I have clearly promised someone that I will fight against the wind and rain together, and the flowers will bloom and become rich. Do I have to ignore this agreement when I have an opportunity?
He quietly cast his eyes on the people in the hall, and quickly found Zhong Xin's face.
That face did not surprise Qin Huai at all, after hearing what Bu Lun said, it was already heavy and cold.
Qin Huai suddenly made up his mind.
He stepped off the stage slowly, came to Zhong Xin's seat, faced the crowd, and bowed deeply.
"I am very grateful to Mr. Brun and the organizing committee for the honor given to me, and I am also very grateful to Mr. Brun for his kind invitation. However, the design of this perfume does not belong to me alone, but the joint efforts of my husband and I , we have made some achievements, and it is natural that we share it. As for the visit to France, because he and I are busy with family affairs, we really can't get out, but thank you for your love."
Except for An Xingsheng, everyone in the hall knew at this time that this dazzling new star in the spice industry turned out to be a handsome husband, and the man who had been sitting beside him silently was his husband. He is also an unknown son of the Zhong family of the spice family.
It turned out that besides "Zhong Osmanthus", which had already been shortlisted, someone from the Zhong family participated in the evaluation in their own name and won the Supreme Award in one fell swoop, which was simply too unexpected.
There were already many newspaper reporters in the hall, but when they heard Qin Huai's words, they patted him and Zhong Xin indiscriminately.
The preliminaries had ended and new stars had been born. At this time, everyone dispersed, and Brun came in front of Qin Huai and Zhong Xin.
Although he regretted that Qin Huai rejected his request, his simple and straightforward character made him smile.
"Qin, congratulations, you really surprised me. You probably couldn't imagine how I looked when I saw that perfume. I was completely like a child who discovered a treasure. I was so surprised and excited!"
As he spoke, he opened his arms to Qin Huai very naturally, obviously wanting to make a warm hug to express his current high joy.
Zhong Xin stood up suddenly, happened to stand between Qin Huai and Bu Lun, and said to Bu Lun calmly:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bu, according to our rules, you can't hug other people's wives casually, especially his husband, who is still standing here."
**************
When the sixth young master Zhong Zhi read today's newspapers, his eyes slowly narrowed.
Almost all of those newspapers used a special page to introduce the perfume competition that was being reviewed.
The Zhong family's "Zhong Osmanthus" was selected for the final list, but such a result, compared with the huge photos of Zhong Xin and Qin Huai in the newspaper, is really insignificant.
In particular, the news headlines accompanying those photos are all eye-catching words like "The new emperor of perfume, the new power of the Zhong family" or "The pearl hidden in the back house of the Zhong family, once dusting the world".
Between the lines, the information revealed is that Zhong Xin, the seventh young master of the Zhong family, together with his husband and wife Qin Huai, has won great glory in the fragrance industry by innovating a new perfume. The real successor of the Zhong family.
Zhong Zhi didn't know if Zhong Yi from the second room could see these newspapers, and what he would think, but at this moment, he couldn't care about him, and all he could think of was how he threatened Zhong Jiu a few days ago, when the other party He promised to take away Zhong Xin's power and put himself in the position.
But in the past few days, hearing that Zhong Li and Zhong Feihong had a conflict, and the marriage was likely to blow up, those two old things seemed to have forgotten to promise themselves that matter, and they never mentioned it.
Zhong Zhi only felt an indescribable irritability in his heart.
It's not that he doesn't know how old-fashioned Zhong Jiu and He Yiru are, it's just that at this time, since the two sides have torn their skins to the point where they are trying to show up, they are already on the verge of death and have to fight.If you don't push forward step by step, you will definitely be counterattacked by the opponent, and if you delay for a day, you will be at risk for a day.
He pondered for a while, and finally called Zhong Jiu.
Some things need to be pressed a little harder.
After a while, with a trace of excitement and pride on Zhong Zhi's face, he went out excitedly.
The maid at home asked him if he could come back for dinner, he thought about it, and only said that he would go to a friend to have a drink of flowers and wine, instead of preparing a meal for him, he would just let the small kitchen cook some nourishing soup and drink it when he came back at night.
Because the girl had had an affair with him and crawled over Zhong Zhi's bed, she was very concerned about him, she agreed, and asked the small kitchen to prepare sweet soup, and at night, she sat indoors and waited.After waiting for a long time, I unconsciously fell asleep beside the bed.
When she suddenly woke up from the dream, she realized that it was already the morning of the second day, and the sixth young master Zhong Zhi hadn't returned all night.
Although she was a little worried, she didn't care much considering that he also had the experience of sleeping in flowers and sleeping in willows in the past.Unexpectedly, it was another day and night, and the sixth young master was still missing. The maids got scared and hurriedly reported to the third wife.
The Zhong family was naturally in a state of chaos, searching everywhere.Unexpectedly, for a whole day, I went to every place I could find, and even the car and people were gone.In desperation, he had no choice but to report to the official, and issued a missing person notice in the newspaper.
The sudden disappearance of the sixth young master can be said to have caused an uproar in the Zhong family.
The third wife has cried to death many times, needless to say.Even the eldest wife, He Yiru, recited the Peace Sutra to him in the Buddhist hall for several nights.
But after chanting scriptures at night, when He Yiru returned to the bedroom, she quietly looked in the direction of Zhong Zhi's courtyard, clasped her hands together, and secretly said:
"Since I have read so many sutras for you, you can go on the road safely, and you don't have to feel wronged by the cold weather. Naturally, I will burn more paper money for you in the future, and buy some fine clothes, that's all."
On her side, she burned incense and recited Buddha's name for Zhong Zhi, but the girl Rui'er who served beside her seemed to have lost her soul, not only looked haggard, but she often lost things and made many mistakes that she didn't usually do.In He Yiru's eyes, he didn't blame her.
It's just that in private, every few years, the prostitute who would quietly come to the eldest wife's house to discuss selling girls, secretly came to the door again.
Ever since Rui'er learned that Zhong Zhi had disappeared mysteriously and his life and death were uncertain, she was terrified for a while.
Although she didn't know what happened to him, but for some reason, as soon as she saw his wife recite the peace scriptures for the sixth young master in the Buddhist hall, her heart would be up and down, and she felt that the scriptures seemed to have changed. It turned out to be a Sutra for saving the souls of the dead.
Moreover, in the past two days, she felt that something was wrong with her body. Not only was her menstrual period coming, but her whole body was also very sad. Not only did she lose her appetite, but she would vomit when she saw greasy dishes.
Although she tried her best to control this day, when she was serving He Yiru, she couldn't help but vomit twice.
He Yiru was amiable, and only asked her to go back to rest for a while, and then sent her mother-in-law to take her out to find a doctor to take a look.
While thanking his wife, Rui'er went back to the room, only thinking of Zhong Zhi in her heart, and sure enough, she saw the thick and strong woman that the two wives often used, so she came to take her out to see a doctor.
She understood somewhat in her heart that with her appearance, she was most likely pregnant with the seed of the sixth young master.But the wife asked herself to go to the doctor, but had to go, so she had to go out with the mother-in-law, trying to make another plan.
It's just that after going there, no one has seen Rui'er in the eldest wife's yard since then.
Then someone asked, and it was just that the girl was getting old, and his wife loved her so much that she was rewarded with a marriage, and she had chosen a good family to go.
*********************
In the second bedroom, because Zhong Yi and Yu Tinglan had already slept in separate rooms, and the autumn nights were long, he would often invite Zhong Xiu to his room for a chat.If it rains occasionally, it would be inconvenient for Zhong Xiu to come over, and the two would have to make a phone call before falling asleep.
At dusk that day, there was a cold rain in the sky, Zhong Yi knew that Zhong Xiu would not come.
He stayed up late at night alone, only to feel that something was missing in the room, and finally picked up the phone and whispered to Zhong Xiu.Until midnight, the outside was as dark as ink, and the rain was flying, he didn't know that the door was slightly opened, and Yu Tinglan, who had already slept in a separate room with him, came in silently.
In the past few days, Yu Tinglan's body and mood have improved greatly compared to the previous days. There are more times of understanding in a day, and less times of confusion.Because of this, she missed Zhong Zhi even more.
It's just that she also knows that ever since she was forced to put on the chastity lock by Zhong Yi and her sister, more people were sent to monitor her, even though she and Lao Liu lived in the same house, the chances of meeting each other were much higher than the sky. Still difficult.
Moreover, because her father was sent to be an official in a different place, her natal family actually followed her. For a while, she was really helpless and helpless, so she could only support herself every day under the supervision of the girl and mother-in-law.
Because on this day, she suddenly heard two girls whispering secretly, and vaguely heard a word that the sixth young master had been missing for several days.Although Yu Tinglan didn't really hear it, but she was concerned about it, and she had an explosive temperament, so she immediately stepped forward and grabbed the girl's skirt, asking what she said.
It's just that the girl Zhong Yi sent to watch over her is no longer her former confidant.Moreover, with Zhong Yi's support, seeing Yu Tinglan's bad luck, the previous scruples about her have long since disappeared.Seeing her coming up to ask questions, he simply ignored her.
Yu Tinglan has been well aware of the snobbishness of these servants these days, and she has restrained herself a bit, but now that she heard about such a major event as Zhong Zhi's disappearance, she ignored it and pulled the girl like crazy, forcing her to speak out.
The girl was frightened by her crazy appearance, and finally told her the news that Zhong Zhi had been missing for several days.Because she was tired of Yu Tinglan, she also vaguely knew the relationship between the second mistress and the sixth young master, so she simply added fuel to the story, saying that it was rumored that the sixth young master was a womanizer, and she must have slept with some enemy's wife and was secretly murdered. I can't find it, and I probably have seen the King of Hades a long time ago.
When Yu Tinglan heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue, and she was stunned on the spot.
After she returned to the room in a daze, she sat there from noon until late at night, and then she woke up from the trance, and her eyes fell on the window of Zhong Yi's bedroom.
She didn't know what was going on in her mind, she even washed and dressed quietly, then took out something from the top of the quilt, put it in her bosom, and sprayed some "Chrysanthemum osmanthus" on her body.
Because the smell after spraying this perfume was the sixth favorite.
Then at this time, taking advantage of the strong wind and rain, she held the thing in her arms tightly and went straight to Zhong Yi's room.
But no matter how wrong you are, you won't read the three words Sishijin as begonia, right?
That is to say, the Four Seasons brocade that I have worked so hard to create has been eliminated, eliminated!
Qin Huai felt that he was a bit overwhelmed, and didn't believe that the result would be true.
He subconsciously turned his head and looked at Zhong Xin. There was no sympathy or disappointment on the latter's face, and he still looked calm.But to Qin Huai's surprise, one of his hands suddenly stretched out and held his hand.

Ever since Rui'er learned that Zhong Zhi had disappeared mysteriously and his life and death were uncertain, she was terrified for a while.
Although she didn't know what happened to him, but for some reason, as soon as she saw his wife recite the peace scriptures for the sixth young master in the Buddhist hall, her heart would be up and down, and she felt that the scriptures seemed to have changed. It turned out to be a Sutra for saving the souls of the dead.
Moreover, in the past two days, she felt that something was wrong with her body. Not only was her menstrual period coming, but her whole body was also very sad. Not only did she lose her appetite, but she would vomit when she saw greasy dishes.
Although she tried her best to control this day, when she was serving He Yiru, she couldn't help but vomit twice.
He Yiru was amiable, and only asked her to go back to rest for a while, and then sent her mother-in-law to take her out to find a doctor to take a look.
While thanking his wife, Rui'er went back to the room, only thinking of Zhong Zhi in her heart, and sure enough, she saw the thick and strong woman that the two wives often used, so she came to take her out to see a doctor.
She understood somewhat in her heart that with her appearance, she was most likely pregnant with the seed of the sixth young master.But the wife asked herself to go to the doctor, but had to go, so she had to go out with the mother-in-law, trying to make another plan.
It's just that after going there, no one has seen Rui'er in the eldest wife's yard since then.
Then someone asked, and it was just that the girl was getting old, and his wife loved her so much that she was rewarded with a marriage, and she had chosen a good family to go.
*********************
In the second bedroom, because Zhong Yi and Yu Tinglan had already slept in separate rooms, and the autumn nights were long, he would often invite Zhong Xiu to his room for a chat.If it rains occasionally, it would be inconvenient for Zhong Xiu to come over, and the two would have to make a phone call before falling asleep.
At dusk that day, there was a cold rain in the sky, Zhong Yi knew that Zhong Xiu would not come.
He stayed up late at night alone, only to feel that something was missing in the room, and finally picked up the phone and whispered to Zhong Xiu.Until midnight, the outside was as dark as ink, and the rain was flying, he didn't know that the door was slightly opened, and Yu Tinglan, who had already slept in a separate room with him, came in silently.
In the past few days, Yu Tinglan's body and mood have improved greatly compared to the previous days. There are more times of understanding in a day, and less times of confusion.Because of this, she missed Zhong Zhi even more.
It's just that she also knows that ever since she was forced to put on the chastity lock by Zhong Yi and her sister, more people were sent to monitor her, even though she and Lao Liu lived in the same house, the chances of meeting each other were much higher than the sky. Still difficult.
Moreover, because her father was sent to be an official in a different place, her natal family actually followed her. For a while, she was really helpless and helpless, so she could only support herself every day under the supervision of the girl and mother-in-law.
Because on this day, she suddenly heard two girls whispering secretly, and vaguely heard a word that the sixth young master had been missing for several days.Although Yu Tinglan didn't really hear it, but she was concerned about it, and she had an explosive temperament, so she immediately stepped forward and grabbed the girl's skirt, asking what she said.
It's just that the girl Zhong Yi sent to watch over her is no longer her former confidant.Moreover, with Zhong Yi's support, seeing Yu Tinglan's bad luck, the previous scruples about her have long since disappeared.Seeing her coming up to ask questions, he simply ignored her.
Yu Tinglan has been well aware of the snobbishness of these servants these days, and she has restrained herself a bit, but now that she heard about such a major event as Zhong Zhi's disappearance, she ignored it and pulled the girl like crazy, forcing her to speak out.
The girl was frightened by her crazy appearance, and finally told her the news that Zhong Zhi had been missing for several days.Because she was tired of Yu Tinglan, she also vaguely knew the relationship between the second mistress and the sixth young master, so she simply added fuel to the story, saying that it was rumored that the sixth young master was a womanizer, and she must have slept with some enemy's wife and was secretly murdered. I can't find it, and I probably have seen the King of Hades a long time ago.
When Yu Tinglan heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue, and she was stunned on the spot.
After she returned to the room in a daze, she sat there from noon until late at night, and then she woke up from the trance, and her eyes fell on the window of Zhong Yi's bedroom.
She didn't know what was going on in her mind, she even washed and dressed quietly, then took out something from the top of the quilt, put it in her bosom, and sprayed some "Chrysanthemum osmanthus" on her body.
Because the smell after spraying this perfume was the sixth favorite.
Then at this time, taking advantage of the strong wind and rain, she held the thing in her arms tightly and went straight to Zhong Yi's room.
