Findings at sea

At that time in the Bai mansion, Bai Xiaohong had just sent away the visiting sister Xiang, and turned around to sit on the sofa.The maid handed over a cup of hot tea and said, "Master Bai, today's dinner..."

She pondered Bai Xiaohong's thoughts in her heart. Ji Erye looked at his watch from time to time, obviously he couldn't stay any longer. Why didn't Bai Ye let him go? While she was still in a daze, Bai Xiaohong said casually, "Xingtang today Eat here."

Ji Xingtang rolled up her sleeves again and looked at her watch, "Brother, I..." We agreed to pick Ruoyu up in person, but no one was arranged, and I don't know what's going on now.

Bai Xiaohong looked up at him from the lingering water vapor, "Is he my Ruoyu baby or yours? What are you worried about?" Seeing that Ji Xingtang frowned and did not speak, Bai Xiaohong said, "An Sheng If he is eating here, I will send someone to pick him up."

It's not that Ji Xingtang is afraid that Ruoyu will run away, there are Bai Xiaohong's eyeliner everywhere in Shanghai Beach, he hides in the corner, and Bai Xiaohong can find it too.It's just winter, and he didn't bring a coat, and he didn't bring any money, so he didn't know how his lunch was, and maybe he was hungry and cold now.Ji Xingtang nodded in agreement.

After eating, Ji Xingtang looked at his watch again, it was almost nine o'clock, and Zixuan should be back.Bai Xiaohong was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, the maid handed him a cup of hot milk, Bai Xiaohong pointed to Ji Xingtang, and the maid handed the milk to Ji Xingtang.

Ji Xingtang took the cup, put it on the table and pushed it in front of Bai Xiaohong, and said in a harmonious voice, "Brother, it's getting late, you should take a rest, I should go too."

Bai Xiaohong looked up at him from the newspaper for a moment, then said calmly, "From tomorrow onwards, you will move to live with me."

"But...it's not appropriate," Ji Xingtang flatly refused.

Bai Xiaohong snorted and said, "Isn't it your second master Ji who promises so much money and promises so much? Is it considered outrageous for me to let you live in?"

Ji Xingtang was speechless, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Okay, but let me go back first today, so that I can prepare first."

Bai Xiaohong said, "Sleeping in my room today, I have done a lot of bad things, and I always feel that some ghosts are slamming me cold." Bai Xiaohong put down the newspaper and got up to leave, "I know you Ji Erye likes to be clean, everything is new In exchange, if you think I'm dirty, then I'm sorry, you have to endure nausea."

"Brother...you deliberately made things difficult for me," Ji Xingtang also stood up and left.

As soon as he walked to the door of the living room, Bai Xiaohong said again, "A person who has known each other for two days can warm his bed. Why would it be difficult for you to sleep on my bed? I promise you that you won't do anything out of the ordinary. Besides, I do have something I want to talk to you about. You can go out if you want, but as I said just now, whoever let you Ji Xingtang out of the White Mansion today will go to the Huangpu River to feed the fish tomorrow."

Ji Xingtang clenched his fists tightly, why did he have to push himself so hard? Could it be that other people's lives are not life in his eyes, and he was so happy when it was his own.

Ji Xingtang was reluctant and went to sleep on his bed.Turn off the lights, sleep head to toe, back to back.

Let’s talk about business, Ji Xingtang wrapped the quilt tightly and asked lightly, “Brother, I want to ask you one thing--is the Juyi you want to open is a securities company or a Yantu company. We said it was a Yantu company but Do you want to trick those people into buying shares, or do you really want to smuggle tobacco and make a fortune?"

Bai Xiaohong closed his eyes and said softly, "Xingtang, don't you naively think that those who burn incense and worship Buddha are all good men and women?"

"Then I won't do it," Ji Xingtang said decisively, "You promise me that you will clean up."

Bai Xiaohong smiled wryly, "Are you willing to forgive me after I've been cleansed? You'll still think I'm black and dirty."

"Brother Hong, we're still young, so it's too late to stop," Ji Xingtang continued to persuade with a calm voice.

"You... haven't called me that for a long time." Just like when I was young, on such a winter night, Tang'er's face was pressed against his back, and she told herself in a soft voice, Brother Hong, everyone there You have no chance of winning money, old man, I don't want you to go; brother Hong, there are many dirty men in the women there, I don't want you to go.This was a lecture that bored him so much, one day he stopped talking, and he wanted to hear it so much.

Ji Xingtang said, "If you are willing to walk the right path, I can call you that every day."

"You are very suitable for doing business, isn't it good to just use your mouth for this kind of transaction?" He asked again, "What do you think is going the right way, cutting off the relationship with gangs, warlords, gaming tables, nightclubs, and opium? Relationship, is to walk the right way? Have you ever thought that without this chair, we are just street rats and everyone shouts and beats them, and they will still force you to go the wrong way.”

"We are superficially beautiful, sitting in this chair---operating casinos, opening smokehouses, making a lot of money, making money every day, and calling the wind and rain in Shanghai. But in the eyes of those dignitaries, especially financiers and entrepreneurs, this is not Righteous way, but not on the table. Wrapping this layer of skin is like a gangrene, but only you know the pain in your bones. If you want to let go, you will have to endure some skin-cutting pain. I am sure that the way I am going now is definitely not the right way. It’s definitely not a real long-term solution. Only by starting a business and entering into finance can you change your face, which is really impressive.” Ji Xingtang paused for a moment and continued, “Besides, it doesn’t have to be to cut off relations with all directions, that’s an advantage we can take advantage of. "

Bai Xiaohong pursed his lips and smiled, "You are the best at handling things. Some people love power, so they use power to win over them; some people love wealth, so they use money to bribe them; You are so smart and far-sighted, you should be able to see what I like, if you want to win me over, shouldn't you also give me some sweets?"

Ji Xingtang said lightly, "Brother, I'm going to talk to you about business."

Bai Xiaohong said "um", "Are you done? I'll go to sleep after I finish."

"According to the current situation, I think it is most beneficial to open a bank. Firstly, there must be a lot of big brothers and extensive financing; It’s different, this is the right way, and it will help us break into the upper class.” Ji Xingtang asked softly, “Have you slept yet?”

"Go to sleep," Ji Xingtang muttered to herself.

Bai Xiaohong said, "The capital of 1000 million may not be enough to open a bank. If the bank opens and no one deposits money in, why not close down?"

Ji Xingtang was a little delighted that Bai Xiaohong could still listen to his words, "I have inquired about it. There is an unbreakable rule in the financial world. No matter which bank opens, all colleagues in the same industry must deposit a sum of money to express their congratulations. There are More than a dozen banks, the amount of money deposited in the dozens of banks is not a small amount. In addition, the people who can save money in Shanghai are rich, wealthy, gentry, dignitaries who often go to smoking halls and casinos. These people beg us in the venue Take care, this face still has to be given, don't worry about the bank running out of funds."

He only heard Bai Xiaohong's "hmm" and fell asleep without saying a word.

Ji Xingtang had a dream. He dreamed that he had entered a brand new world, where it was no longer surrounded by clouds and chaos, but quiet and harmonious; the people there were no longer gamblers and smokers with dull eyes and listless spirits. , everyone is in high spirits.His heart is hot, and his body is also hot...

Sleeping until midnight, someone hugged me from behind in a daze.Ji Xingtang hummed, "Let go of me."

Bai Xiaohong was with the dark night, and he only dared to be so presumptuous in the dark night. Knowing that the moonlight outside was boundless and cold like frost, covered by curtains, no coldness and light could seep in, he was also satisfied, and he hugged Ji Xingtang tightly. body, with his head resting on his shoulder.Ji Xingtang felt the warm breath puffing on her neck, the smell was wrapped in the aroma of roses in the dark night, "Tang'er, I promise, will you love me?"

Ji Xingtang said in a nonchalant way, "Maybe I was thinking about it, but God forced me not to love or not to love anymore. The people I love never die well. If I love you, the curse may be brought to you. You are the big brother, I have to guard against and be afraid..."

Bai Xiaohong said, "Have you always carried the one I gave you?" Of course he was talking about the agarwood pendant.

Ji Xingtang said, "You gave me a lot of things. Not only did you carry them with you, some of them even lived on your body. No more, no less, no depth, no shallowness, but you can never take them off..."

"Then do you hate me?" He really didn't know what to say, in order to talk to him more or torture himself, he still had to ask knowingly.

"If I say I don't hate you, you won't believe me. What's the point of asking?" His heart that had just warmed up seemed to be a little cold again, and he said in a low voice, "What you want is bells, drums, delicacies, jade cups, and pans." Liuxia, all I ever wanted was a simple dish of food and tea."

"I see..." Bai Xiaohong squeezed him tighter with a little strength, "I don't mean anything else, it's just that it's colder."

Ji Xingtang felt the beating of Bai Xiaohong's heart on his back. Once upon a time, his own heart would be beating like this, but someone grabbed it lightly and deftly, and pulled it off selfishly regardless of his pain or not. It seemed that there would never be any more. Heartbeat, if this is the case, all the walking dead will not look for where Xin'er was left.It's just that after another thought, Brother Hong lost his heart, not only his heart, but also his soul.

Bai Xiaohong prayed that the night could be longer, only in the night they could put down their camouflage armor and feel each other's warmth.He knew that when he woke up the next day, he was still the big brother who was "respected and kept at a distance" in his heart.
