The yamen runner at the door saw the carriage and felt familiar with it, so he took a few steps forward to see what this man was doing.
Li Wanji got off the carriage and habitually gathered the clothes in front of her.
Just like before, I came to see Young Master Jiang.
The bailiff took a closer look and turned to report.
Wang Bing is not here today, and it is Wang Tao who is on duty in the government office.
Hearing that someone from Furong Chamber of Commerce was looking for the young master, he straightened his clothes and asked someone to invite him in.
Master Liu was sitting at the desk. He looked at Wang Tao's expression, snorted disdainfully, and stood up to refill his tea cup.
When Li Wanji walked into the court, today's confusion began again.
"I am Jiang Hai." Wang Tao answered her.
“…”
Li Wanji was speechless. A few days ago it was Jiang Hai, and today it was Jiang Hai again. It seemed that this Young Master Jiang was as changeable as a monster.
"Sir, don't be ridiculous. Someone was here a few days ago, but it wasn't you."
"Oh, you must be dazzled. I am Jiang Hai, and Jiang Hai is me."
“…” Li Wanji wanted to hit someone again, but had to hold back.
She covered her chest, which was rising and falling, and said proudly, "Okay, then I'll just pretend that you are Young Master Jiang."
Wang Tao, like Cai Er, whose principles far outweigh his emotional intelligence, immediately corrected her.
"No, no need for "qie pang". I am Young Master Jiang. Please remove "qie pang". Otherwise, I won't play with you anymore."
“…” Li Wanji wanted to go crazy. What kind of people are these? None of them are normal.
Suppressing the urge to run away, Li Wanji calmed down, thought about the purpose of this time, and finally regained her composure and said,
"Master Jiang, I came to you this time to discuss cooperation."
"Master Li, please speak."
"Could you please take me to see how these goods are made? My superior, the guild leader, said we need to ensure the supply and quality of the goods.
Only then will we have a better idea of the scope of business in the capital."
Li Wanji came up with an excuse, which was to see where these goods came from.
She stayed in Binhai County for a few days and visited many places in the county.
But I feel that this county town doesn't seem like a place that can produce that batch of goods.
After listening to what Li Wanji said, Wang Tao said firmly,
"No, our young master said, ah bah, I said it, this is a trade secret, no one can see it, even if the king comes."
“…”
Li Wanji felt so miserable. This person was obviously fake. He was speaking so calmly even after revealing his true identity.
After thinking for a moment, she wanted to use her beauty trick again. She stood up, stopped covering her chest with her hands, and wanted to get closer to Wang Tao to talk.
As a result, Wang Tao shouted,
"Sit back!"
Li Wanji was shocked. What was going on? Was there such a vicious person?
Wang Tao put on a serious expression and said solemnly,
"Mr. Li, please respect yourself," he thought about what Jiang Hai had said before, and said, "Please maintain an appropriate social distance. We are serious people and we are talking about serious matters."
“…”
Li Wanji wanted to die, but the person she met last time was a little easier to talk to.
This time, this guy was simply out of this world. Not only was he old-fashioned, he was also vicious. Oh my god, what kind of hellish mission had the Third Prince assigned to him?
At this time, Lawyer Liu slowly walked back to the court, holding a teacup in one hand and a book in the other.
One side of the book was facing Li Wanji, and she took a quick look at the cover of the book.
Li Wanji was almost petrified when she saw a cute two-dimensional girl on the cover. The drawing was exaggerated, and the front of her was surging like a big watermelon.
The title of the book was blocked by Master Liu's fingers, and all that could be seen was [The Faceless Servant].
Li Wanji looked down at herself and felt inferior for the first time.
Master Liu hummed an unknown tune and walked back to the desk. He put on his reading glasses, opened the book, took a sip of tea, and let out a satisfied sigh.
The sound brought Li Wanji back to her senses. She sat down again and gathered her things together. Her expression no longer had the arrogance she had before.
Wang Tao saw her sitting back down and said,
"Mr. Li, there's no need to discuss other matters. According to our agreement, you only need to place the next order each time you receive the goods.
Don't worry about our strength, we can provide whatever you want."
Since Wang Tao said so, what else could Li Wanji do?
As a businessman, she has no status. She relied on her looks to deal with various old perverts and got the position of branch manager today.
Who would have thought that this usual tactic, when it came to Binhai County, not to mention Jiang Hai, even his subordinates couldn't handle it.
Helplessly, Li Wanji had no choice but to accept it and nodded and said okay to Wang Tao.
She returned empty-handed, and this trip to the coast left a shadow on her.
After leaving the county government office, Li Wanji asked the coachman to ride directly back to Nanzhou City.
Li Wanji was very upset that the away game ended in failure, but there was nothing she could do. The only thing she gained might be the weirdness of Binhai County.
Thinking about it in the carriage, Li Wanji said to herself,
“It seems that it’s not that easy to meet Young Master Jiang.
So what we can do now is to report the strangeness of this county and let the people above worry about it.
Young Master Jiang only has Hao Bo as a breakthrough point. Let's try again next time we meet.
Oh, I didn't expect this to happen. It seems I underestimated this guy before, thinking he was just a greedy and lustful playboy. "
Rubbing his eyebrows, Li Wanji felt exhausted and took a nap in the carriage with his eyes closed.
The coachman driving in front and the servant accompanying him felt much more relaxed.
Especially the servants, if the boss doesn't go back, he will almost be starving. The expenses in a few days are more than a month in Nanzhou City.
Fortunately, the host paid for my accommodation, otherwise I would have to sleep on the streets.
After Li Wanji's carriage left.
County government office, court.
Wang Tao sat back down beside his desk and said calmly,
"It's obvious that this woman is not a decent person. She thinks she can do whatever she wants just by showing off her looks."
"You are awesome." Master Liu praised Wang Tao without even raising his head.
"What a joke! I'm a steel guy," Wang Tao said, stroking his chin. "What did the young master say?"
"Straight man of steel."
"Yes, I am a straight man."
Wang Tao felt very excited about this title.
…
Northeast border, Donggu Pass.
Zhou Yi left the border garrison and came to the top of the wall.
The soldiers under his command worked for a while, and at this time, a table was placed on the wall.
On the table were offered pig and sheep heads, chicken, duck, fish, as well as some cakes, fruits and so on.
There is an incense burner in the front.
Zhou Yi lit three incense sticks seriously, knelt down devoutly, and muttered something.
Standing up and inserting three incense sticks into the incense burner, Zhou Yi said with a relieved look, "Thanks to God's blessing."
