Chapter 347 Naughty Child 6
"Brother Wang, what's wrong?" Another middle-aged man in a robe came over and asked curiously.
The man in the suit explained briefly, but Lin Xia was not interested in them and turned to continue watching the sunrise. Her hearing was too good and her ears unconsciously picked up the information from the conversation between the two.
Both of them are professors at Haicheng University. They talked about their analysis of the current situation with sharp words.
Lin Xia listened for a while, then turned around and went to the restaurant to have breakfast and catch up on some sleep.
After drifting on the sea for a few days, something unexpected happened when we were approaching Haicheng.
Their ship was hijacked by pirates.
This is the Huitong Shipping Company that Lin Xia specially chose. I heard that the boss of Huitong started out as a gangster and pirates never dared to rob his ship, so she took the waterway.
Now tell her what this is for!
However, Hui Tong Shipping did not disappoint her. They took out guns, cannons and ammunition from the cabin and fired at the pirates. Although they successfully forced the pirates back, the ship was also hit by a cannon and stopped on the sea, unable to move forward.
Everyone on the boat was in a panic, and the captain came out in person to apologize. The rescue fleet arrived quickly, and Huitong's manager not only refunded everyone and gave them compensation, but also promised everyone a permanent 20% discount on the use of the boat.
After this operation, everyone was appeased. They were all rich people and had many opportunities to use boats. A 20% discount could save a lot of transportation costs.
Huitong Shipping was also happy as it had minimized the impact and attracted a group of potential customers. Everyone was happy.
Lin Xia has a good impression of Huitong Shipping Company. She plans to open a factory in Haicheng, and she can take this opportunity to establish a good relationship with the shipping company.
The reasons for opening the factory were simple: first, to leave some property for Wang Zhaozhao; second, to compete with the ex-husband; third, to support the Red Party in this world.
The more than ten years of life in her first life had a profound impact on her outlook on life. Since she couldn't help her motherland in that world, she could help her motherland in the parallel world.
There were some twists and turns, but I still got off the ship safely. As a high-quality customer of the shipping line, the shipping line provides a pick-up and drop-off service.
Lin Xia rode in a rickshaw, a type unique to the Republic of China, traveling through the streets and alleys of the old Haicheng.
One side is prosperous, the other side is chaotic.
Along the way, fights, thefts, and robberies occurred frequently.
Once you enter the concession, public security is much better and the living conditions around here have obviously improved to a higher level. It looks more like a modern society.
Lin Xia specifically asked for a villa in the French Concession. The French Concession was the best developed area among the concessions. Everything about it was good except for one thing: it was only one street away from Ming Bingchun's residence.
"You are the lady, right?" The maid welcomed Lin Xia into the house enthusiastically.
"Call me Miss Lin."
The maid was previously hired by the Ming family to take care of the villa. Now that the owner of the villa has become Lin Xia, it is natural that she pays the salary. The maid tactfully changed her title immediately.
Lin Xia's arrival aroused the gossip of several nearby families, and everyone was ready to watch the quarrel between her and the third sister.
Ming Bingchun's mistress is Bao Xuewei. She also heard about Lin Xia's arrival and was fully prepared to be picked on.
Things did not develop as they had hoped. The next day, Lin Xia prepared gifts and visited several families nearby, except the Ming family. She did not find fault and simply ignored them.
As the saying goes, concubines mix with concubines, and wives mix with wives.
Lin Xia deliberately built good relationships with the wives of several surrounding families, but she never met Bao Xuewei, the third sister.
After a few days of getting acquainted, she was able to integrate into the mahjong circle of the ladies, with a special focus on Mrs. Chen because her family ran a garment factory.
