A trace of greed flashed in Jiang Yuanmao's eyes, but after a moment he still shook his head and said, "No, Cui Zhenghe is from my Qianyuan Chamber of Commerce. As the leader of the association, how can I ignore his business for my own selfish interests? Yuanzi Don’t mention the matter again, Mr. Gu should just take matters into his own hands."
"Then how can Mr. Jiang be willing to return that batch of goods to Gu?" Gu Caiwei asked with a frown.
Before Jiang Yuanmao opened his mouth, he saw an eight-foot-tall man with a sinister face not far away suddenly slapped the table, stood up and shouted angrily, "Where did the girl come from? There are no rules at all. How can she be at someone else's birthday banquet?" Aggressive! No matter what the disagreement is between you and Jiang Huishou, won't you come back at another time and insist on ruining everyone's mood now?!"
His voice was very loud, and as soon as he opened his mouth, the tea in the bowl rippled, and the dust on the roof beams also fell. Many of the guests sitting next to him were startled.
However, Gu Caiwei was not frightened by his momentum, and still held her chest high and said, "Gu also wanted to change the time, but in the morning I went to visit Jiang Huitou's house, but I was rejected.
“In the afternoon I went to Jiang Huishou’s shops again, and I heard from the roadside vendor that Jiang Huishou had just entered a quarter of an hour ago, but when I went to ask, the clerk in the store told me that Jiang Huishou was not there. "
Gu Caiwei spread her hands and said, "If Gu has no choice, I don't want to ruin everyone's enjoyment tonight."
However, it was okay that she didn't explain, but this explanation was tantamount to confirming the fact that she was looking for trouble.
As a result, all the guests looked at her with even more unkind eyes. On the contrary, Jiang Yuanmao, the person involved, suddenly closed his mouth and watched coldly.
Gu Caiwei also vaguely noticed at this time that the real purpose of Jiang Yuanmao, who had deliberately avoided her before but let her into the restaurant tonight, was obviously determined to escalate the conflict between the two to the level between her and Qian Yuan. Conflicts between chambers of commerce.
Then we can further use the power of the entire chamber of commerce to suppress her.
I'm afraid next time it won't be as simple as detaining a batch of goods, but it will completely disrupt her business, and even drive her out of the capital.
There is no doubt that the Qianyuan Chamber of Commerce does have this power. Even if the coal merchants headed by Cui Zhenghe are not her opponents, doing business has never been a one-industry matter.
For example, her charcoal business requires wood, transportation, shops and charcoal kilns, and the hiring of various manpower. If it gets stuck anywhere, it will cause big trouble.
And it just so happened that there were many merchants and officials in the restaurant today who could directly or indirectly affect her business. For example, the timber merchant surnamed Yuan was sitting at the table on her right. The two of them were actually familiar with each other, and the other party had been giving her advice. Supply of charcoal kilns.
It's just that the wood dealer surnamed Yuan knew about the conflict between Jiang Yuanmao and her, but he had to sit at another table tonight and pretended not to know her. However, this would not affect their future business, because no one would compete with money. make life difficult for.
But if the Qianyuan Chamber of Commerce is determined to punish Gu Caiwei, then the timber merchant named Yuan will have no choice but to endure the loss and not supply Gu Caiwei.
Fortunately, even if Jiang Yuanmao is the leader of the Chamber of Commerce, it is not that simple to use the power of the entire Chamber of Commerce to deal with one person. However, if Gu Caiwei does not handle the situation tonight well, it is very likely that there will be public outrage, so Jiang Yuanmao will There is an excuse to deal with her.
The current situation requires Gu Caiwei to deal with it carefully, but she has not yet decided on the next step.
Unexpectedly, there would be a new spoiler at the birthday banquet the next moment. A black cat with a white line on its body suddenly jumped down from the beam and bit Jiang Yuanmao's arm.
Jiang Yuanmao was caught off guard and bitten by the black cat, but he did not cry out in pain. On the contrary, he endured the pain and stretched out his other hand to pinch the back of the black cat's neck.
However, he didn't expect that the black cat didn't want to fight after taking a bite, and turned around and headed towards Gu Caiwei.
Then without any pity, he bit Gu Caiwei's finger, biting out a bit of red, and then ran out of the window.
However, among the people who came to congratulate Jiang Yuanmao on his birthday tonight, there were many people from the martial arts world.
They reacted quickly. Although Jiang Yuanmao was bitten because of the sudden incident, they stood up and blocked the black cat's escape space. When the strange-looking black cat bit Gu Caiwei again, it was already by those martial arts The middlemen were surrounded.
After several attempts to escape without success, the black cat became very decisive and immediately lay down in Lu Jing's arms.
"Is this raccoon slave yours?" Jiang Yuanmao asked calmly.
Lu Jing looked down at the cat, and the black cat was also looking at him. Then he stretched out a paw to dip tea in Lu Jing's tea bowl, and drew a crooked shape on the table. Lu Jing also made a guess. Only then did I realize that the thing should be a coral tree.
Forget it, the black cat pointed at Gu Caiwei again.
Lu Jing was also shocked. Is this... exchanging lives?
Is this guy still hiding this kind of trick? If Lu Jing understood correctly, the black cat just sucked out the coral tree-shaped luck from Jiang Yuanmao's body, and then quickly spit it out on Gu Caiwei.
Lu Jing knew before that this guy could hunt for luck, or he could spit out the luck in his stomach to others, but the latter didn't seem to be able to make his own decision.
Anyway, when Lu Jing was in the black cat's dream, he couldn't decide which life to spit out. It was purely a random event, a bit like throwing a dice.
But Lu Jing didn't expect that the black cat had a hand hidden. It seemed that it didn't swallow the coral tree just now, but held it in its mouth, and then quickly vomited it to Gu Caiwei.
In this case, wouldn't he be able to use this trick to give himself better luck in the future?
Lu Jing couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought of this possibility. He didn't want a good life, he just wanted to get money quickly. The coral tree just now seemed to be very good.
In addition to his own strength, Jiang Yuanmao's ability to become the head of Kyoto's No. 1 Chamber of Commerce must also be due to his luck.
But now that the black cat has vomited to Gu Caiwei, Lu Jing can no longer win anyone's love.
Speaking of which, why was this guy suddenly so generous this time, giving Gu Caiwei the food that was on his lips while he was still hungry?
Thinking of this, Lu Jing couldn't help but become a little distracted and didn't bother to answer Jiang Yuanmao's question.
The latter's face became increasingly ugly, and Lu Jing had no eyesight at all. Sitting at the same table as Gu Caiwei made Jiang Yuanmao have a bad impression of him.
Seeing that he ignored his question, Jiang Yuanmao sneered, "This friend is so impressive."
