My Supernatural Life of Leisure - Chapter 1524: : Inexplicable criticism (2
What the ponytailed elf maid said, in fact, the elf maids who were present wanted to say to Lucky in their hearts, but they couldn’t say it, and I didn’t expect to be said today.
“…” Lu Qi wanted to reach out and grab a small fruit from the fruit plate, but when she heard the words from her little friend, she was stunned.
Then, her face, neck, and ears turned red in an instant, especially her white face, which was like a ripe apple at this time.
“You, what are you talking nonsense? How could I be a lady?” Lucky retorted with a blushing face and whispered.
An Elf girl who was nearly eighty years old immediately retorted Lu Qidao.
“Who said it’s impossible? I have worked here for more than 20 years. In other manors around us, there was a maid who was just like us, and finally married her master and became a wife.”
“That is, I have heard about that person, and now I am enjoying her.”
“I seem to have heard that, you are talking about the man who married the general defending the city!”
The elven maids sitting in the small pavilion to rest began to tell the story of the maid who flew on the branch and turned into a phoenix.
Girls like them who work as maids in large households, being able to marry high-ranking nobles like generals guarding the city, can indeed be said to fly on a branch to become a phoenix and change their lives.
Now, in the eyes of these elven maids, Luqi is very likely to become the second maid who flies on the branch and becomes a phoenix. This opportunity makes them envious.
“Stop talking nonsense.” Lu Qi was so ashamed of her friends that she wanted to find a place to hide.
The elf maids were so shy when they saw Luqi, the more they talked instead.
“Yeah!” Lu Qi yelled, and then ran out of the pavilion and ran out of the garden. There was the joyous sound of the little friends laughing and joking behind her.
…
In the accountant.
Mr. Jing Jiu, the accountant of Lin Fei’s manor, is now earnestly recording the income and expenditure of the manor during the recent period.
After a while, Jing Jiu finally finished the work on hand, and then she stood up and stretched her waist.
With a slender figure and silver-white hair, if she appears at an animation exhibition on Blue Star, she will surely attract a crowd of animation enthusiasts to take pictures.
Unfortunately, such a scene will never appear on Blue Star.
“Tread, step, step…”
The sound of rapid footsteps came from outside the corridor, and after a while, a figure ran into the accounting room.
“Huh? Luqi, why are you here?” Jing Jiu asked with a smile when he saw the visitor.
Lu Qi, who was ashamed of what her friends said, was as blush as Red Apple, but when she ran over, her shyness had faded and her complexion had returned to her original state.
Originally, Lu Qi was too ashamed of the words of her friends, and her heart was pounding. She wanted to come to Jing Jiu to talk about what those elven maids had said to her and complain to him.
However, when she actually came to the accountant and saw Jing Jiu, she couldn’t speak to her lips.
I want to come too, what about marrying the boss to be the wife of the manor, she is only fifty-four this year, just an adult! Is this something a little girl can say?
“I’m here to play with you! Jing Jiu, have you finished your work?” Luqi looked at Jing Jiu eagerly, and then changed the subject and said.
“Just finished your work, you came here.” Jing Jiu said with a smile.
“You are so busy these days!”
“Because the old version of the chocolate is getting better and better now.”
“Oh.” Lu Qi nodded and said, “Tomorrow is the day when the tea housekeeper will give us a holiday, let’s go to Lakeside Town for a stroll!
I will take you to eat the grilled fish in Lakeside Town. Before, I recommended the boss to eat grilled fish in Lakeside Town. After he had eaten it, he came back and told me that he liked the taste of the grilled fish in Lakeside Town. ”
“Okay! Shall we go out tomorrow morning or in the afternoon?” Jing Jiu, who had never been to Lakeside Town before, said with a smile.
“Go out in the morning! This time I will take you to the tavern I recommend the boss to go to eat grilled fish. If we go in the afternoon, I am afraid that the tavern boss will sell out the fish bought by the fishermen in the morning.”
“Okay, we will go out tomorrow morning.”
Jing Jiu and Lu Qi were in the account room, planning to go to Lakeside Town tomorrow. At this moment, there was another rush of footsteps in the corridor.
“Jing Jiu, the tea steward asked me to tell you to go to the living room.” A tall elf maid came to the account room and said to Jing Jiu who was chatting with Lu Qi.
“Oh, okay, I’ll go now… The tea housekeeper asked you to come to me to go to the living room, what’s the matter? Do you know?” Jing Jiu got up from the chair, walked out the door, and came to look for her. The elf maid asked.
“I don’t know exactly what it is, but after a visitor came to see the tea housekeeper, they chatted for a while, and then the tea housekeeper asked me to come to you.”
“Guests who come to visit?!”
Lu Qi saw that Jing Jiu was about to do business, and she was the only one left in the accounting room. She was idle and had nothing to do, so she left the accounting room.
I was worried that those little friends would make jokes about becoming a wife in the future, and now she would not go to the garden.
So, Lu Qi walked to the fish pond in the manor, where there were many colorful ornamental fishes.
Because this manor was formerly owned by the royal family, all the ornamental fishes were brought out from the palace.
It is said that the pedigree of these ornamental fish is unusual. When they grow up to a certain year, they are directly fished out, boiled and eaten, and practitioners will increase their cultivation base.
Regarding those ornamental fish, Lu Qi also listened to her little friend.
It was the first time Lu Qi had heard of the fish that could increase her cultivation.
It’s a pity that the aquarium fish grow too slowly. They will not grow a centimeter in more than ten or twenty years. Now they are only one centimeter long. It may take more than a hundred years before they can be served!
…
“Tread, step, step…”
The tea housekeeper and the guests in the living room were drinking tea, and when they heard the light footsteps coming from outside the door, they knew that the people they were waiting for had arrived.
Jing Jiu walked into the living room, and she glanced at the strange guest that the tea housekeeper was receiving.
The stranger was about one hundred and twenty years old, was 1.8 meters tall, had a full length of hair, and his ears were studded with red gemstones, and he was wearing expensive silk and satin clothes.
“Tea housekeeper, are you looking for something to do with me?” Jing Jiu greeted the old housekeeper Tea Picture after casting a glance at the stranger.
“Jing Jiu, you sit down first.” The old housekeeper Cha Tu nodded and gave Jing Jiu a look.
This look in Jing Jiu was very familiar, because she had received this look several times during this period of time.
Seeing this look in the old housekeeper’s tea picture, Jing Jiu knew why he was called here.
“President Shi, don’t think I am the housekeeper of this manor, but the chocolate business, my master has given full authority to this girl Jingjiu to take care of.” The old housekeeper Cha Tu said to the visitor.
Sitting on the side, Jing Jiu heard that the tea housekeeper called the visitor Shi Chairman, she thought about it, and she knew that the person in front of her should be the president of a certain chamber of commerce.
The tea housekeeper can personally receive for so long, and see that the president of this chamber of commerce has done a lot of business.
In order to make this manor in the world of the elves can continue to operate normally, let the workers in the manor be paid.
Lin Fei wholesales chocolates from Blue Star to the Elf World to sell, which is regarded as a wealthy business for the manor.
Lin Fei’s original intention was to make the manor run normally, and he didn’t think about making a lot of money from chocolate, but the development of the matter was a little bit away from his original intention.
With the spread of chocolate, a unique snack from another world, coupled with word of mouth, it is said that chocolate is a high-end product only available in the capital, making chocolate now a high-end gift given by many people.
More and more people came to buy chocolates, so that the owner of the snack shop that Lin Fei cooperated with had to make a decision to restrict the purchase, but the restriction did not solve the problem.
Because there are people like scalpers, even in the world of elves, these scalpers took a fancy to the business opportunity of chocolate, a unique product, and began to organize people to queue up to buy chocolate.
The owner of the snack shop that Lin Fei worked with now listens to his subordinates reporting to him every day that there is a long queue outside the shop before it is completely light.
Once the door is opened, within a short while, the share of chocolates that are restricted every day will be swept away.
And these shopkeepers who do business are veterans, and naturally they know that the people who come to the queue before it is light up these days must be scalpers.
But you can’t stop them. After all, they line up to buy things according to the rules, and you can’t do anything with them.
As more and more scalpers joined the queue, the scarcity of chocolate was spread wildly.
Originally a piece of chocolate was worth a few copper coins, but now it has been overturned ten or twenty times by those scalpers.
At such a price, ordinary people simply can’t afford it, making chocolate now completely reduced to a special product for wealthy merchants and some dignitaries.
This is only the situation here in the capital of the White Elves. In order to obtain greater profits, some scalpers directly transported the chocolate that they bought from the capital.
Transported to other remote cities, after arriving at the destination, the original price of chocolate has doubled several times, and it has doubled again. These scalpers can be said to be full of profits.
Such amazing profits have naturally attracted the attention of many forces. The high-ranking officials in the capital have some business in their hands. Now that this kind of business that can be said to be lying down and making money has suddenly appeared in the capital, how can you not be tempted?
However, at their level, they would definitely not immediately make a move. Others didn’t know Lin Fei’s details. They, such high-ranking officials, knew a little bit.
The host behind the chocolate business was the one who saved the life of the princess! How long has this passed? Even if they are greedy, they dare not directly grab this business.
Those high-ranking officials who knew Lin Fei’s details temporarily stopped and watched the changes, but some other small forces did not have such connections and knew about Lin Fei’s details.
Just like now, the chairman Shi who the tea housekeeper is receiving.
He comes from the southern part of the White Elf Kingdom. Although he has business in more than a dozen cities in the south, he is a small and powerful chamber of commerce, but he is tens of thousands of miles away from the capital city, and the news is not well informed.
Even if you come to the capital and ask for news everywhere, how can the high-ranking officials in the capital see this small chamber of commerce from the south?
Therefore, he naturally couldn’t find any important news, only when Lin Fei was a nouveau riche who started his business with chocolate.
“That person named Lin Fei is too unreliable! He actually gave such an important business as chocolate to such a girl who was only about sixty years old.
Um… This girl is pretty and has a very good figure. It seems that Lin Fei is also a womanizer. ”
The man who was called Chairman Shi by the old housekeeper’s tea picture, looked at Jing Jiu and criticized Lin, who had never met before, in his heart.
If Lin Fei could hear this person’s criticism of him at this moment, he would be a little surprised… There is a clerk at home. I don’t hand over the chocolate business to her. Wouldn’t it be handed over to those who are not good at counting? Take care of it?
“Ms. Jing Jiu, my name is Shi Jiancang, and I am the president of the Bluestone Chamber of Commerce from the south.” Shi Jiancang introduced himself to Jing Jiu after criticizing Lin in his heart.
“Hello, President Shi, my name is Jing Jiu.” Jing Jiu responded, and then went directly to the topic, and said to Shi Jiancang, “Chairman Shi is visiting this time. UU read www.uukānshu.com to buy chocolate. Bar?”
Shi Jiancang didn’t expect that Jing Jiu knew the purpose of his trip before he could speak, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and then he calmed down quickly and spoke to Jing Jiu.
“Yes, Miss Jing Jiu, this time I came to the capital to attend a friend’s 250-year-old birthday party.
At the banquet, I happened to taste a delicious snack like chocolate, and I was instantly overwhelmed by its sweet taste.
Then I asked my friend, and he told me that this chocolate is your master’s business.
So I came to visit with a cheeky, hoping to buy a batch of chocolates from you to bring back to my hometown, so that people in my hometown can also taste this delicious snack. ”
The president of the chamber of commerce is the president of the chamber of commerce, what a high-sounding statement! Why do you want to buy a batch to take home, so that people in your hometown can also taste this delicious snack? Such an excuse is really touching!
“What to bring back to the people in your hometown to taste? It’s not that I think this chocolate can be brought back from the capital to earn a huge amount of wealth, so I came to buy it.”
This kind of rhetoric, similar, Jing Jiu has heard of them during this period of time, and I don’t know how many, because they have long been immune.
Although Jing Jiu was spitting out these high-sounding words in her heart, Chairman Shi said, but she did not show it on her face, but said to Shi Jiancang with an apologetic expression.
“Chairman Shi, I’m really sorry. We already have a partner. If you want to buy chocolate, just talk to our partner directly.”
