Xie An shook his head and patiently advised in a low voice, "Forget about revenge. Let's wait for A-Jing to come back. But treating her to a meal is fine."
"The capital is full of hidden talents; it's best not to offend anyone."
He pointed to a young man among the group: "Don't underestimate these people. One of them has an uncle who works at the Bureau of Industry and Commerce."
"If you offend someone, what if they secretly obstruct your business license application one day, making it take several months to process? Wouldn't you feel cheated?"
Ji Xia was taken aback by what she heard. Fortunately, she hadn't offended anyone, and she accepted Xie An's suggestion.
After Feng San and the others cleaned up everything that had been damaged in the yard, they nervously approached Xie An and Ji Xia: "Brother Xie, Comrade Ji, now that it's all cleaned up, how much were those damaged items worth?"
Ji Xia smiled with relief: "Qiu Yu just reported to me that most of the stains can be washed, only a small part may have to be scrapped. It's not a lot of money, so let's just leave it at that!"
Upon hearing this, Feng San was overjoyed, but seeing Xie An staring at him with a detached expression, he quickly smiled apologetically and waved his hand, "How can that be? If there's any damage, we'll take responsibility for it. No matter how much is damaged, we'll pay for it."
"It's not much, only a few dozen yuan. Forget it, this whole thing can't be entirely blamed on you. It's just that the people behind it are too vicious."
Ji Xia waved her hand, a knowing smile appearing on her pretty face: "You've all been busy here all day, let's have a meal together. Consider it a case of 'no fight, no friendship,' and let's understand each other."
"How could we possibly do that? We're the ones who damaged it while we were working."
Before Feng San could even be modest, Xie An coldly snorted, "We're going to eat. Do you want to come along? If not, that's fine too."
Upon hearing that Xie An would also be joining them for a meal, Feng San and his henchmen readily agreed.
Everyone knows the reputation of the Six Young Masters of Beijing. Normally, they wouldn't even have the chance to meet them. Today, they have the opportunity to have dinner with the Fourth Young Master. Even if they broke their leg, they would carry them there.
After discussing it with his underlings, Feng San all agreed, "Brother Xie, want to have dinner together? We definitely have to go."
"Thank you, Fourth Young Master!"
Ji Xia glanced at Xie An gratefully. Without Xie An here today, things would have been very difficult to handle!
That noon, Ji Xia, accompanied by Xie An, treated Feng San and his group to a sumptuous lunch at the Four Seasons Restaurant, where they also drank two cases of beer.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Feng San staggered up to her with a wine glass in hand: "Miss Ji, I'm sorry about what happened today, but don't worry, from now on, with us here, no one will dare to touch a hair on your workshop."
Ji Xia chuckled inwardly. With Xie An around, what business did they have?
However, she readily drank a cup with Feng San and casually praised Feng San and the others until they were all quite drunk.
After seeing off the group of young people wearing red armbands, Ji Xia and Chen Qiuyu returned to the workshop, which was already bustling with activity.
After arranging the work, Hou Xiaolian sat down next to Ji Xia: "Is everything alright now?"
"It should be alright now."
Ji Xia nodded, but her brows were furrowed: "However, we don't know who's behind this, and what exactly did we do to offend them?"
Chen Jing was in charge of running errands outside, but he was always careful in his dealings with people and would not easily offend anyone.
Moreover, Ji Xia and Chen Jing have only been in the capital for a little over two months, and Chen Jing has never mentioned Brother He from Xicheng. How did they offend this person?
Ji Xia sighed in frustration. Fortunately, Xie An was there today and dealt with the matter immediately, preventing too much damage. If he hadn't been there, the workshop would have been shut down for half a month, which would have been enough to bother her.
This time I owe a huge favor, but how should I repay it?
Are we really going to try and set him up with Jiang Qingci?
To get revenge for her own problems, she pushed her classmates and friends aside. What kind of behavior is that? If her roommates find out, not only will Jiang Qingci be angry with her, but Ruoshi will probably distance herself from her as well.
Alright, let's test the waters first. If Jiang Qingci is also interested in Xie An, she might as well help him out.
If she has no idea what she wants, then I shouldn't force her.
In that case, Chen Jing will have to repay the favor.
Thinking of Chen Jing, Ji Xia was troubled again. Should she send a telegram to Chen Jing and tell him about what happened this time?
Chen Jing only boarded the train today; I'm afraid the telegram will arrive before he does!
After a three-day, three-night train journey, Chen Jing finally returned to Huacheng.
After the train arrived at the station in the afternoon, Chen Jing, carrying two large bags of luggage, hailed a taxi and headed straight for the Baima Wholesale Market.
Upon arriving at the wholesale market, he had just gotten out of the taxi when he heard Feng Ge's surprised greeting: "Ah Jing? You're back?"
Chen Jing paid the fare, turned around and waved to Brother Feng: "Brother Feng, I just got off the train and came back."
Feng helped carry a bag and chuckled, "You're lucky, kid. Xiao Gang called you back, right? He just received a telegram yesterday saying it was from your girlfriend."
"Telegram? I'll go ask."
Chen Jing was surprised and strode to his own wholesale store with his luggage.
Chen Xiaogang and Zheng Tang were organizing the merchandise in the shop. The small shop, which was only a dozen square meters, was almost empty, with less than one-tenth of the inventory.
Chen Jing put down his luggage bag in front of the shop and looked around: "Xiao Gang, A Tang!"
"Boss, you're back."
Upon hearing Chen Jing's voice, Liu Xiaogang and Zheng Tang were overjoyed and exclaimed, "Great! You've finally arrived. We were worried you wouldn't make it!"
"What can't be caught up with?"
Chen Jing looked at the wholesale store suspiciously: "By the way, why is there so little stock? How often does the commune deliver goods?"
"We deliver goods about once every three days, but we did deliver yesterday evening. However, we've already finished processing most of the orders today."
As Liu Xiaogang spoke, he handed over a stack of shipping slips: "Look, this is today's wholesale volume. Some are from individual customers, and there are also two large orders, with five or six hundred pieces at once, emptying the store in one go. But this time, the new winter coats are indeed popular."
Liu Xiaogang excitedly reported to Chen Jing, while Zheng Tang whispered a reminder: "Xiaogang, this isn't urgent. Let's talk to the boss about the important matter first. We've received two telegrams yesterday and today."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaogang finally remembered: "Yes, yes, Brother Jing, your wife sent a telegram, and the Hailin family from Haishi also sent us a telegram, saying that their people will arrive tomorrow afternoon and they hope to meet with you."
As Liu Xiaogang spoke, he handed Chen Jing the two telegrams he had received yesterday and today.
Chen Jing responded, first opening Ji Xia's telegram, glancing at it, and then frowning: "The workshop in the capital was raided, and they almost took away the sewing machines?"
