Chapter 116 These Evil Rich People
The play has ended, but the emotions it evoked are not so easily dispelled, as were those watching the scene and Ye Wanxi.
When Jiang Shaofeng walked over carrying the bouquet of flowers prepared by the crew for the wrap party, Ye Wanxi was still standing not far away, wearing the blood-stained clothes from the props, slightly lost in thought.
The character of Fairy Jinghong sounds like the standard white moonlight in old male-oriented novels.
There are only two reasons why a "white moonlight" is called a "white moonlight": one is that the male protagonist can only look up to her and never get her, and the other is that she died young, remaining in her best years, freezing everything at her best.
This character happens to have both of them. Apart from her personality, her experiences and final outcome are very similar to Ye Wanxi in her previous life.
"Congratulations on wrapping up."
Jiang Shaofeng's words successfully brought Ye Wanxi back to her senses.
"Thank you." Ye Wanxi accepted the flowers from Jiang Shaofeng. Thinking that she no longer had to rush to the film set day and night, she couldn't help but smile with relief.
Although Jiang Shaofeng and Ye Wanxi were in the same crew, they had not had much contact apart from their usual acting together.
This was the first time he had ever seen Ye Wanxi with such an expression. He was stunned for a while before saying somewhat embarrassedly, "I told my parents what you said that day. We went to the airport together that day and waited for him, hoping to find my brother smoothly."
"If you truly want to find him, you will succeed."
"My parents saw the story of the family who found their child online, and they really hope that their luck can be extended to our family. Oh, by the way..."
Jiang Shaofeng finally remembered the important matter: "This is what my parents asked me to give you."
Ye Wanxi glanced at the card Jiang Shaofeng handed her, somewhat surprised: "This is..."
"Didn't you say before that you wanted to find a legitimate way to buy medicine? I went back and asked my parents. They do know a few people who are in this business, but none of them are on a very large scale. They probably can't afford to buy many of the more expensive medicinal herbs."
"This is a list of some of the more well-known medicinal herb merchants in the city. I heard you're going to attend the anniversary celebration of Banana TV tonight. This Mr. Bai is the largest medicinal herb merchant in City A. His family has been in this business for generations, and he has a deep foundation. This is a photo of him. If you have time tonight, you can try to get to know him first."
Ye Wanxi's eyes flickered slightly. She nodded, put the card away, and whispered, "Thank you."
"It's nothing." Jiang Shaofeng felt truly unworthy of this thanks. He had previously been so confident that they could help Ye Wanxi, but in the end, they only provided some information that wasn't very useful.
But it doesn't matter. Once they find their brother, they will surely find other ways to repay her.
"Wanxi, Wanxi..." As the two were talking, Director Dou ran over with a large red envelope and shoved it into Ye Wanxi's arms. "Here, here, take it. It's the rule in the industry that characters who end up in tragedy need to receive a red envelope to calm their nerves and ward off bad luck."
Director Dou sighed and said reluctantly, "Although we've only been working together for about a month, we're all quite sad to see you leave so suddenly."
"Alright, Director Dou, I think you're not reluctant to part with Wanxi, but rather reluctant to see the crew lose its mascot, aren't you?"
Director Dou's little scheme was exposed, and he glared angrily at the producer: "You're so talkative."
Ye Wanxi chuckled: "Sister Ya Ya is joking. You are clearly the treasure of our group."
"Alright, alright, Wanxi, stop being modest. Her? A mascot?"
Director Dou gave a haughty snort and mocked the producer in front of her, unsurprisingly getting a beating from her.
However, Ye Wanxi was indeed a treasure of the crew during her time on set.
Although Fang Tian’s incident happened at the beginning, the Wen family not only did not withdraw their investment, but even took the initiative to make another investment, under the pretext of compensating for the losses caused by Fang Tian’s withdrawal from the group.
Considering the online interactions between Ye Wanxi and Wen Yuan, it is not difficult to guess for whose benefit this investment was made.
Then, when Fang Tian left, Jiang Shaofeng, whose net worth and abilities were a hundred times better than his, took the initiative to save the day, and this person was also there for Ye Wanxi.
The last variety show, with official thanks, went viral on the internet, and the crew also received attention, so there was no need for publicity and promotion.
Moreover, during the time she was on the crew, many people came to her for fortune-telling.
Ye Wanxi didn't refuse the online fortune-telling service of three divinations a day. She basically accepted all comers, and the fees weren't too expensive. After all, most people who came to her asked when they would have good luck in love or when they would become rich.
As the saying goes, "He who eats another's food is bound to him, and he who takes another's money is bound to him." Since the group had received Ye Wanxi's favor, they naturally couldn't gossip about others behind their backs.
Now that Ye Wanxi is leaving, even those who used to gossip behind her back about her flirting with married men are somewhat reluctant to see her go.
"Wanxi, I have something to ask you." After being beaten up by the producer, Director Dou hurriedly grabbed Ye Wanxi to stop her from leaving.
"What's up?"
"Could you sell me a few of those amulets you gave to Teacher Lu and the others?"
Ye Wanxi was slightly surprised: "How did you know I sell this?"
"you do not know?"
"Know what?"
Director Dou looked at Ye Wanxi speechlessly: "Not long after that video from the plane was exposed, a very famous internet celebrity rich second-generation posted several amulets on his public account, saying that you sold them to him."
"...What's that rich kid's name?"
"It seems his surname is Zou."
The case is solved, it’s that guy Zou Hanming!
However, she had offered Zou Hanming a discount when she sold the product to him before, with the intention of asking him to help with publicity. Now the result coincided with her initial expectation.
"Well, I do sell these, and not only peace charms, but also love charms, luck charms, academic charms, and exorcism charms—you name it. If you can think of it, I can draw it. It's just that the price is quite high, 100,000 per piece."
Director Dou originally thought that each talisman would sell for an astronomical price, but he never expected it to only cost 100,000.
You know, it’s a good thing that can save your life at a critical moment, it’s equivalent to a second life!
He immediately waved his hand generously and said, "Give me fifty bills, and I'll transfer the money to you right away."
Jiang Shaofeng smiled and said, "I want fifty of them too."
The producer chimed in, "Me too, me too, give me twenty!"
Just then, the producer, who had nothing else to do, strolled over and overheard the conversation. He was intrigued: "You sell talismans? I want some too. Give me fifty of them."
Ye Wanxi: "..." In the end, she underestimated the wealthy people in this circle.
