Chapter 122 Something Happened at the Satin Shop
Chapter 122 Something Happened at the Satin Shop
I tossed and turned on the swing, trying to fall asleep. I was afraid that Nuonuo would appear as soon as I fell asleep, but I didn't dare sleep too deeply, for fear that I would fall asleep until Nuonuo was about to leave.
I kept torturing myself like this until dusk. I looked at the sky. Normally at this time, Nuo Nuo would have started looking up, which meant that it was less than an incense stick of time before he left.
I began to pace anxiously. This is how a mentor feels when he is waiting for his students to come.
It wasn't until the night covered the sky like a quilt that I felt something was wrong.
I wanted to call Nannan out and ask her to accompany me to see what was going on, but Nannan wouldn't come out no matter what I did.
It is impossible to find Li Yu at this time, because they will fight as soon as they meet.
I tried calling Golden Pig, and this guy actually responded. Under normal circumstances, I would have called him dozens of times but he would still not respond.
I told Golden Pig that I wanted a formation that could move positions. Golden Pig thought about it and said it was no problem.
But he wouldn't say that. I was so angry that I almost vomited blood. What kind of words did he say?
Then Jin Zhu took a sharp turn and said, "I can change the formation for you." This sounded very strange. If he wanted to change it, would the other person have to give something in exchange?
Before I even asked, Golden Pig had already started counting on his fingers what I was going to give him. After talking for a long time, my mind was confused. What were all these things?
Seeing my confused expression, Jin Zhu repeated his words, "I want a pheasant's tail feather, a drop of blood, and a valuable item..."
I was so dizzy after listening to it. Golden Pig mentioned several things, and I didn't understand what most of them were. For example, the first one, the pheasant, isn't that something for hunting?
I can't even pull a bow. By the time I was ready, Nono should have been ready. Seeing that I didn't react, Jinzhu comforted me and said that these things were easy to prepare and would only take three to five days.
I glared at him, but still wanted to ask Nannan where it was. If Nannan came, there would be no need to prepare so many things for years. Jinzhu was stunned for a long time and changed the topic.
"I can help you see if that guy is okay, but I just need one thing." Jinzhu said this, and I wanted to strangle him to death. I gritted my teeth and asked him what he wanted.
Golden Pig looked at me hesitantly, unable to say a word for a long time. His look made me even angrier. Is he trying to play hard to get with me?
I slapped the table in front of Golden Pig, warning him to speak up quickly if he had anything to say, otherwise I would make him regret saying it.
I don’t know whether the Golden Pig was certain of his thoughts or was scared by me. I felt more like it was the former. How could the Golden Pig be scared by me?
Staring at my head in a daze, I followed his gaze and touched my head, took off the wooden hairpin and handed it to Golden Pig. Golden Pig shook his head. I knew in my heart that this guy wanted my gold.
I just refused to give it to him. It seemed to me that this guy was just trying to steal my hairpin. I stuck the hairpin on the table in one go. I was shocked in my heart and wondered when did I become so strong?
How could a wooden hairpin penetrate the table? She was still shocked and looked at Jin Zhu with disdain, "Is this okay?"
I clearly saw Jinzhu swallow his saliva and touched the hairpin. The hairpin was cracked in the middle. Due to the limitation of the table, the hairpin only had a big crack. Jinzhu said with an apologetic smile, "Okay, okay."
And then he disappeared. I seriously suspected that this guy had run away. I didn't want to care about him. He was really incompetent. So I prepared some money and called a carriage to go to the old house.
As soon as I stepped out of the door, I saw Hongdou waiting for me at the door, pacing back and forth. I looked at Hongdou in confusion, wanting to ask what happened. Hongdou saw me coming out and spoke before me.
"Miss, Miss, something happened in the Satin Shop." The Satin Shop is also the shop that gives me the most headaches. The shop assistants inside are all the most experienced, which is a good thing, as they have their own way of treating customers.
There was also a big problem, that is, the shop assistants were very sloppy. The materials in this satin shop were all top quality, and the customers were all well-known and wealthy families. This matter was quite urgent. After weighing the pros and cons, I decided to follow Hongdou to see what was going on.
On the way there, I also found out what happened. It was said that a wealthy customer ordered a set of clothes, and the clothes should have been delivered today. When the clothes were delivered, it was found that the clothes had been cut into pieces.
I was racking my brains thinking about how to solve the problem, but before I could figure it out, I arrived at the place. Most of the shop door was closed, and it looked like the place was very crowded. I walked in two steps at a time.
I saw the shopkeeper being driven out of a private room. When he saw me, he almost knelt down in front of me as if he had seen a savior. I asked the shopkeeper to take me to the darkroom.
This silk shop was visited by wealthy families, and they viewed the clothes in separate private rooms. However, what they did not know was that there was a dark room behind each private room, and these dark rooms were all connected, with screens separating each room.
You can see everything inside the room from the darkroom. From this perspective, my shop seems to be a black shop, but this is just our way of protecting ourselves. I saw that the people in the room were losing their temper.
Everything in the private room was smashed to pieces. Except for the table and the stool I was sitting on, there was nothing intact left. I sat in the prepared place, wanting to see who it was.
It was not until he saw the person's face that he was extremely shocked. Wasn't this Miss Juan from Manxianglou? She still had such a bad temper. How could a woman from a brothel make the owner so scared?
I glared at the shopkeeper and raised my chin towards Miss Juan, wanting to ask what was going on. It was like the shopkeeper couldn't tell who this person was. How could someone who was so good at reading people's colors be driven out like that?
The shopkeeper bowed to me and whispered in my ear, "It's the person behind this guy. He has an extraordinary temperament and is generous." As he spoke, he handed me a cup of tea, and I took a sip.
The shopkeeper has helped me solve several very difficult problems. I have seen such scenes countless times. The things in this box are the cheapest.
It doesn't hurt to fall like this, but the shopkeeper's words just now are very clear. The person behind Miss Juan must be a wealthy person. "Then what do they mean?"
The shopkeeper explained that usually in cases like this, we have to pay the bill ourselves and then offer a set for free. However, the other party did not accept it and insisted on closing our store. Isn't this just looking for trouble?
