As the two were talking, the man suddenly lowered his voice: "What kind of antique is this? Aren't they cracking down on these things right now? How dare this family defy the law?"
Shu Jie looked over with a sharp gaze, his expression somewhat displeased: "I paid to invite you here, not for you to whisper amongst yourselves. These goods are all for export, and the client values this batch of goods highly. If any problems arise, I'll make sure you suffer the consequences."
The two of them immediately fell silent.
Recently, there have indeed been some goods exported, which are all large-scale transactions, and they are only assigned manual labor.
For a moment, the people carrying goods moved in an orderly fashion, like a line of ants. Shu Jie put down what he was holding, picked up his water glass, took a sip of water, and glanced at the watch on his wrist.
“It’s already 10:30, why haven’t Mom and Dad arrived yet? If they delay the departure of the boat, who knows how much trouble it will cause later.”
Zhang Ling sat on the deck boat, took off her coat and carefully wrapped it around Yangyang, her eyes warily scanning her surroundings.
She is the daughter of Zhang Ma, a maid in the Shu family. Zhang Ma had been working for the Shu family since before Shu Ying was born.
She watched Shuying being born, watched her grow up, watched her get married, and later Shuying had more children.
She had always been the one taking care of Shuying and the children's daily needs.
However, since the year before last, her old ailments have recurred frequently, and she is getting old, so it is indeed time for her to rest.
Shu Ying simply let her stay at home and rest, and let Zhang Ling take over her work.
The night before Zhang Ling came to the Shu family, Zhang's mother gave her many instructions.
"Xiaoling, the young lady is a very good person. She won't make things difficult for you for no reason. Our family has received kindness from her, so you should repay that kindness. Once you've taken her wages, you must work diligently. You must never betray your master's family, do you understand?"
Zhang Ling simply nodded perfunctorily: "I understand, Mom. This isn't a feudal society anymore. We have an employer-employee relationship. She pays me, and I work for her. I definitely won't be fired, so don't worry."
Zhang's mother was worried and couldn't put her mind at ease, while Zhang Ling was rather impatient.
She never expected that she would encounter this kind of thing less than half a year after she started working at the Shu family.
Although her employers had never withheld her wages, she had to find a way to make a living first.
Shu Jie was also a member of the Shu family, and the only man among the grandchildren, so he was naturally more favored by the old man.
Although it's unclear why most of the assets ended up in Shu Ying's hands, Shu Jie is good-looking and would occasionally buy her some novel gadgets for girls.
Over time, Zhang Ling became completely infatuated with him. Even if she couldn't see Shu Jie for a day, she felt like a walking corpse.
Needless to say, Shu Jie only verbally agreed to take her away, and Zhang Ling chose to help him without hesitation.
“Ling, we can’t stay here any longer. I really want to spend the rest of my life with you. Find a way to take Yangyang away. My parents have already chartered a whole ship. Once we’re ready here, we’ll fly away and never come back.”
Zhang Ling's heart leaped with joy. Hearing that Shu Jie really wanted to take her away, she was so happy she almost jumped for joy.
She kissed Shu Jie on the cheek with great joy: "Young Master Shu, don't worry, I will definitely do what you asked me to do. You are my lifeline, I will do whatever you ask me to do."
