That's what it looks like!
Ji Xia was not surprised by Mr. Qiao Sanye's cooperation. If she couldn't even subdue such a person, there was no point in her life.
"Okay, I won't let you work for nothing. It's the end of the year now, and everyone's short of New Year's supplies, right? Chicken, duck, fish and meat should be selling well, right?"
"Sister Xia has a keen eye!" Qiao San praised without hesitation and gave Ji Xia a thumbs up.
Chen Dadong also licked his lips, too excited to control himself. Sister Xia is truly a living God of Wealth!
"I want a hundred ocean-going cargo ships." Ji Xia said.
Plop!
Qiao San suddenly fell off his chair and landed under the table. His face was filled with horror as he looked at Ji Xia as if he had seen a ghost. "Sister Xia, one, one hundred?"
Qiao San couldn't believe it!
Chen Dadong was also frightened and his face turned pale with horror.
At this moment, more and more people came to eat at the state-owned restaurant. Ji Xia didn't say anything. She held her kettle and drank water with a calm face, as if it wasn't her who scared Qiao San under the table.
Seeing more and more people around him, Mr. Qiao climbed up from under the table. He thought that if he stuck his head out, he would be killed, and if he hid his head, he would be killed too. So he said bluntly, "Sister Xia, even if you want my life, there is no reason for me to refuse. I really can't help you with this matter."
Ji Xia didn't say anything, but just looked at him calmly with a pair of dark eyes. The pressure was as strong as a mountain, and Qiao San was soaked all over.
"Sister Xia, I can think of a way to handle a few boats, but there's really no way to handle a hundred. It might even attract the attention of those people. It doesn't matter if I go in, but I'm afraid of getting Sister Xia into trouble."
Qiao San raised his thumb and pointed upwards.
Ji Xia wanted to pat her head. The saying "a pregnancy makes one stupid for three years" was true. She said, "Okay, give me a whole piece of open space on the edge of the old forest. I want it tomorrow night!"
This time we won’t do it at sea. After we did it at sea last time, those four countries have been keeping an eye on us. Let’s do it inland.
Ji Xia hadn't figured out what to do yet, so Chen Dadong sent her back, mainly to help her carry the net bag. Qiao Sanye wanted to send her back too, but his legs were so weak that he couldn't, and he was afraid Ji Xia would complain, secretly hating his own incompetence.
When they arrived at the family compound gate, she took the net bag and said to Chen Dadong, "Go back and find Ren Yong from the machinery factory and tell him what I said. Ask him to find you a job. I don't have anything for you to do for now."
Chen Dadong was immediately overjoyed. After he followed Ji Xia, he had money, but he had nothing to do all day long, and the pretty girls were picky about him. If he had a legitimate job, he would be able to hold his head up high in this city.
"Sister Xia, even if I have something to do, I will go through fire and water to do whatever you ask me to do." Chen Dadong said.
"Well, we'll talk about it later. By the way, you didn't do anything else before except speculation, right?"
Although speculation is considered a crime in the eyes of people of this era, Ji Xia does not think it is that serious. It is just a market economy.
"No, no! Absolutely not!" Chen Dadong exclaimed in shock. "Sister Xia, I'm not that kind of person. I did all this before because I had to support my mother. She's in poor health."
"Don't do this again in the future. If I find out, I will never let you off easily!" Ji Xia said sternly.
Chen Dadong was also sweating. After Ji Xia walked away, he turned around and ran to the state-owned hotel to find Mr. Qiao Sanye, helped him out, and told him this happy thing.
"I've known for a long time that hanging out with Sister Xia will definitely be a good thing." Chen Dadong was so excited that he even jumped as he walked.
Mr. Qiao Sanye was too tired to complain. It was good to hang out with Sister Xia, but one had to be alive to get it. There were a hundred ships, and they were ocean-going cargo ships.
Let alone a hundred, if he dared to get ten, he would be targeted and the punishment would be to be put under the fence.
He really didn't know who Sister Xia was. He had no curiosity because he knew very well that if he became curious about Sister Xia, it would be like hanging himself.
Ji Xia planned to finish the matter tomorrow night. Qin Xiao said that there would be a mission in two or three days, but who knows? She often received urgent missions in the past, and she didn't even have time to pack her luggage, and the transportation to pick her up could stop directly in front of her.
When they got home, Xie Sufen came back and looked a little tired. Ji Xia handed her the vegetables and dumplings she had packed and asked her to heat them up and eat them.
"The snow is very slippery. Tell mom what you want to eat and I'll buy it for you. Don't run around. You might fall." Xie Sufen said.
"Okay, Mom, I get it. Hurry up and eat, then take a shower and go to bed." Ji Xia urged.
"Let me tell you a few words, you're still impatient." Xie Sufen said as she made Ji Xia a cup of milk, "You'll be a mother in the future, you have to take good care of yourself, don't be so careless."
Ji Xia agreed while drinking. Xie Sufen went into the kitchen to heat up the dishes and dumplings. There was a knock on the door. Ji Xia went to open it and saw that it was Chen Zenggang, followed by two uniformed policemen. The older one was a woman, followed by a younger man.
When they saw the police coming to their door, everyone in the family compound was very excited, thinking that the Ji family had committed some crime.
Chen Zenggang, fearing misunderstanding, spoke loudly, "Comrade Xiaoxia, these two comrades are here to inquire about the brawl in the Fifth Production Team of Tuanjie Commune. We heard that you and the victim were classmates, so we came to learn more about the situation."
It turned out that it wasn't the Ji family who had done anything wrong. That was boring, so everyone retreated their heads and went home to cook.
Ji Xia understood and said sideways, "Please come in!"
After they sat down, Xie Sufen came in to pour tea, but Chen Zenggang didn't dare to accept it and quickly declined.
"Mom, they just said a few words and left. There's no need to rush. Just go about your business!" Ji Xia said.
Chen Zenggang finally breathed a sigh of relief. He shifted his hips uncomfortably and said, "Comrade Xiaoxia, this is what happened. These two comrades are here to explain the progress of the case. Everything has been thoroughly investigated, so there's no need for you to say anything."
It should be the county's arrangement. Ji Xia nodded and said to the middle-aged female police officer, "Okay, then you tell me!"
The female police officer looked very capable. She had already known for a long time that the person who was beaten and lying in the hospital was Ji Xia's classmate, so Ji Xia was concerned about this matter.
"The person who injured Tian Yuan has been detained by us. Based on the victim's injuries, the general sentence should be fifteen to twenty years. We will push for a verdict as soon as possible. Please rest assured."
Ji Xia pinched her wrist. The one who had assaulted her was Luo Guangliang's wife. She couldn't help but curl her lips. "Although the victim has woken up, the situation was indeed very dangerous. We can only say that the victim was lucky. The nature of the crime must have been extremely serious. I hope that the judicial authorities will take this into consideration when sentencing."
It means the sentence will be too severe!
"Yes, we will bring your suggestions to the court and will definitely consider the opinions of the people." The female police officer said solemnly.
