Chapter 181

Hong Kong City is so small, and the influence of the wealthy families is huge.

After the Jiang Group's stock price hit the limit, it faced other problems. The company was reported by an unknown person, and the Hong Kong City General Administration of Taxation began to investigate the tax payment situation of Jiang's enterprises.

The General Administration has been alarmed, and whether the problem can be found later, it is not a good thing for Jiang.

Jiang Licheng waited for two days but Meng Huaiqing did not return to Hong Kong. With Mao Xinhui and others whispering in his ear, he became more and more dissatisfied with Meng Huaiqing. Finally, he

could not help but return to the old house and stand in front of Ge Lijuan.

Jiang Licheng is nearly fifty years old, but he still looks like a child in front of Ge Lijuan. Ge Lijuan raised her hand and slapped him, "Your father and I have taught you for so many years, but you are such a fool."

The relationship between mother and son has not been very good because of Meng Huaiqing's matter. Jiang Licheng thought he did nothing wrong, and Ge Lijuan felt sorry for Meng Huaiqing.

Now they stood together. Even after being slapped, Jiang Licheng still didn't think he did anything wrong.

He looked up at his mother and said, "Aqiang did do something wrong, but he should have told me so that I could teach him a lesson instead of secretly spreading Aqiang's affairs to the public. Jiang's enterprise looks prosperous, but in fact it has been going downhill in the past two years. As the eldest son of the Jiang family, he not only did not share his father's worries, but also released such news at the critical moment of the Jiang and Chen companies' bidding. Not only did he ruin Aqiang, but he also put the Jiang family in a desperate situation."

Speaking of this, Jiang Licheng was filled with anger, "He is unworthy of being a son."

"You are unworthy of being a son." Ge Lijuan was shaking with anger, "If it weren't for your wife and children who harmed him, Why should he be like this? They went too far before, when did Huaiqing ever care about it? "

Jiang Licheng was a little impatient, "Isn't he fine? I've inquired about it, it's just a small operation..." "

Small operation?" Ge Lijuan looked at her son, furious, "So, just because he didn't die, he should be grateful for their mercy? Not only did you not seek justice for your son, but you blamed him for seeking justice when your son sought it himself? What kind of father are you? Are you worthy of being Huaiqing's father? I've lived for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen someone as selfish as you. Jiang Yuqiang is your son, but Meng Huaiqing is not your son? If Jiang Yuqiang's butt is... "Damn it, is he afraid of Huai Qing's revenge? He should have thought of this day when he was doing it. If Huai Qing is not exposed, someone else will be exposed.

It's only a matter of time. In the final analysis, it's because you didn't teach your son well, and you deserve the difficulties you have today." The old lady is already seventy years old. She knew she couldn't discipline her son, so she usually wouldn't get involved with the Jiang family, and she no longer cared about the Jiang family's affairs. She just stayed with Meng Huai Qing, but even so, the family still refused to let Huai Qing go.

But Jiang Licheng was a selfish person. He simply wouldn't listen to what Ge Lijuan said. He stood there with pursed lips and frowned. After a while, Jiang Licheng said, "Mom, I'm not feeling well. I just want the Jiang family to be well. As the eldest son, shouldn't he share my worries? I wanted him to come back and take over the Jiang family, but what did he do?"

Ge Lijuan sneered, "Huaiqing doesn't care about the Jiang family." She saw her grandson's thoughts clearly. Rather than saying that Meng Huaiqing didn't care about the Jiang family, it would be better to say that he disdained and even hated the Jiang family. Letting Meng Huaiqing go back and take over the Jiang family? This is simply impossible.

"It's not up to him."

Ge Lijuan sneered, "Can you still kidnap him and bring him back?" She warned, "Jiang Licheng, I warn you, the mainland is not like Hong Kong where you can do whatever you want. The laws and regulations of the mainland are gradually improving, and violent incidents have been severely cracked down. If you let those people in your family run wild, no one can protect them."

Jiang Licheng wanted to say more, but Ge Lijuan didn't want to listen to him anymore. If he continued, the mother and son would become enemies. "You go back."

After saying that, Ge Lijuan went upstairs directly.

Jiang Licheng was very unhappy that he couldn't find Meng Huaiqing, so he could only return with regret.

There are now countless paparazzi hiding outside the Jiang family mansion, and there are also many paparazzi in the old house, all waiting for the Jiang family to appear and surround the Jiang family to get the first-hand information.

The result of the bidding project will be announced tomorrow, with almost no suspense.

Meng Huaiqing's actions caused serious losses to the Jiang family.

But he couldn't find anyone.

The projects operated by Meng Huaiqing's company were not the same as those of the Jiang family. He wanted to intervene and even bribe Meng Huaiqing.

Not long after Jiang Licheng left, Meng Huaiqing returned to the old house quietly.

Seeing him come back, Ge Lijuan was still happy, "Glad that you're back, I thought you had to stay for a while."

Meng Huaiqing smiled, "I was planning to stay in the mainland for a while, but this time I came back to deal with some company matters. I can't just leave the company to Xiao Cen and Zhao Bo."

Hearing this, Ge Lijuan smiled gently, "Xiao Cen is a good kid and capable. I heard that he has been dealing with your father these days. As for your Zhao Bo... …” Ge Lijuan couldn’t help sighing as she spoke, “It would be good to find something for him to do, so that he doesn’t have to think too much.”

Meng Huaiqing replied with a “yes”, and then said, “I have to go to the company.”

Ge Lijuan grabbed his arm, “Be careful, if you really confront your father, don’t make a big fuss.”

Meng Huaiqing’s smile faded, “I won’t confront him in the short term, I’ll go first.”

Watching her grandson leave calmly, Ge Lijuan felt very uncomfortable. She didn’t want to say such things, but Jiang Licheng was Huaiqing’s father after all, so he wouldn’t really make a fuss to the death.

Thinking of the woman who came up with this idea, Ge Lijuan’s mood became complicated again. For a moment, she thought it was a good idea, but then she thought of Qin Xiang’s intention and felt ashamed. The girl understood her dilemma.

She could beat and scold Jiang Yuqiang and Jiang Licheng, but she couldn't be so ruthless as to injure them to avenge Huai Qing.

In this respect, she was even worse than Qin Xiang, who at least stood on Huai Qing's side without any scruples.

It was good that Huai Qing wouldn't have to fight alone.

As for Mao Xinhui and the others.

Ge Lijuan narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking that she could always deal with such people. Qin

Xiang didn't pay attention to Meng Huaiqing after he left. She ate and slept as usual. After waking up, she took Zhao Ping for a walk in Guangzhou, and then had a meal with Guan Zhibin. Then she was ready to go back.

When they left, Guan Zhibin said with regret, "It seems that our cooperation ends here."

Although he was mentally prepared, he still felt regretful when it really came.

Qin Xiang is a good partner, and he has benefited a lot from their cooperation over the past year or so. He did not expect that with his cousin's promotion, so many things would happen. Even if Qin Xiang did not care, he would be embarrassed to profit from it anymore.

Qin Xiang smiled and said, "We are just getting started. We have a long way to go. We are all in the clothing industry. Why worry about not having opportunities for cooperation?"

Hearing her say this, Guan Zhibin laughed, "You are right. I am still a little narrow-minded."

Last year, he could never have imagined that a young girl like Qin Xiang could do business to this extent, with twelve branches and three shops in wholesale malls. The profit for one month is not small. He

thought that he had been in Guangzhou for many years, but he was just running the shop in Shisanhang. There was no progress. He was indeed not as good as Qin Xiang.

Guan Zhibin was envious but not jealous. He knew that she was capable and wanted to be friends with her sincerely. "Although we are not cooperating, you can still find me if you have any problems. After all, we are still friends, right?"

His attitude was sincere, and Qin Xiang was also happy to be friends. "Of course, if there is anything I can help you with, I will definitely not be polite to you."

When they separated and went back, Qin Xiang and Zhao Ping went to buy some messy things. After returning, they said to Zhao Ping, "We will go back for the next two days and have a good rest."

After returning, Meng Huaiqing did not come back, and she did not come back for three consecutive days. During these three days, Qin Xiang did not go out again. She and Zhao Ping took out the flawed silk clothes and hung them up, and designed the concealing patterns next to each piece of clothing according to the characteristics of each piece of clothing.

This is not a small job. If you want to match the flaws with the clothes, they must fit the clothes. You even have to embroider a few more places for the flaws to complement each other.

Busy time always passes quickly. Qin Xiang made adjustments to all the flawed clothes in three days, and Meng Huaiqing hadn't come back yet.

Just when Qin Xiang thought Meng Huaiqing would be back in a few days, Meng Huaiqing came back quietly, and it was only two hours before boarding. Qin Xiang

breathed a sigh of relief, "If you don't come back, I'll leave."

"How can I not come back?" Meng Huaiqing looked a little tired, his beautiful eyes were full of red bloodshot, and his face was a little pale.

But he was still the same person, standing there warm and gentle, which made Qin Xiang's heart calm down.

The group picked up their things and headed straight to the airport, but they were not going to the capital, but to Suzhou first. While there were still a few days left, they had to deal with the issue of this batch of defective silk clothes.

After getting on the plane, Qin Xiang said, "Take a break."

Meng Huaiqing was indeed tired, and he responded by leaning on Qin Xiang's shoulder and closing his eyes. After a while, his breathing became steady.

Meng Huaiqing slept all the way on the plane. When they arrived in Hangzhou, Qin Xiang asked Meng Huaiqing to rest, and he took Zhao Ping straight to the Xianglian branch.

This is already the eleventh branch. Tan Xiu has long been adept at arranging the affairs of the branch. In order to cope with the upcoming autumn and winter new styles, the Hangzhou branch has been opened a few days ago.

And in order to attract a group of customers, the store has been selling summer clothes at super low prices in the first ten days of opening.

Qin Xiang arrived not far from the branch and saw quite a few people in the store.

It seems that this marketing method is not bad.

It is already the end of summer, and many stores are also doing promotions, but the intensity is not as big as theirs, and the price, quality and style are very advantageous. If you buy a lot of things at the same time, there are also gifts.

When Qin Xiang entered, he heard Xu Xiaoping shouting, "Everyone, line up to check out, don't crowd, there are all kinds of goods, there are gifts, don't crowd."

Qin Xiang stood aside and watched for a while, and couldn't help but smile.

Not long after, Tan Xiu found her coming and said in surprise, "You are finally back."

Qin Xiang saw the flow of people in the store and couldn't help but praise, "You did a good job."

Tan Xiu smiled, "It's because our new store has opened with low prices. When this batch of goods is almost sold out, there will probably not be so many people."

"But there are also old customers, right?" Qin Xiang smiled.

Qin Xiang is very confident in her clothes. Maybe some people buy them for the cheap price at first, but there are always people who buy summer clothes and think that the style and quality of the clothes are good, and they will come back to see if there are other clothes they like.

Even if three out of ten people will become repeat customers, it is not a loss. Summer clothes use less material, and some cotton T-shirts and shirts are not expensive. If they are mixed with some dresses, they will not lose money at all, but the profit will be lower.

First open the market, and then slowly adjust it later. The autumn and winter styles are the ones that make the most money.

Tan Xiu also laughed.

There were too many people in the store, and Liu Xiaocao and the two shop assistants were simply overwhelmed. However, Tan Xiu did not plan to go over to help. She remembered what Qin Xiang had told her, and hurriedly said, "By the way, the old craftsman you asked me to find last time was not found in Suzhou, but was found in Hangzhou. It was Aunt Ma who helped find her. I asked around, and I heard that her ancestors had been embroiderers in the imperial court, and the embroidery skill was passed down from generation to generation. She herself used to be a worker in a silk garment factory, and she lived at home after retirement. I went to talk to her and saw her embroidery skills, which were very good. I also told her our requirements, and she said it was a small problem."

This puzzled Qin Xiang. Didn't the silk factory think of this problem at the time?

Tan Xiu also said that the silk factory was not very large, so how could it produce such good clothes?

Perhaps Tan Xiu saw her doubts, so she explained, "I investigated very carefully and found that silk factories are different from other clothing factories. Because of the high cost and foreign exchange earnings, the scale of the factories is generally not high. It was only in the 1980s that various clothing shocks began, and there were more things that earned foreign exchange from exports, and the export of silk was also affected a little. There were too many defective clothes made by that silk factory, and it was very difficult to save them. In addition to other reasons, the factory was facing bankruptcy. In order to solve the problem of workers' wages, the clothes were sold. Of course, some people tried to find someone to repair them and then sell them. But it is not easy for an individual to sell these things."

Qin Xiang asked, "Can those workers be found? Are their clothes still there?"

"Some are still here, but some have been used as rags." Tan Xiu knew what Qin Xiang meant when she heard her words, "If you think it's appropriate, I can negotiate with them to buy them. Not only the next ones, but also the ones they have in good condition. It's just that they don't have the channels to sell them."

Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes, as long as they are of the same quality, we will take them, but pay attention to the price."

Tan Xiu smiled, "I understand."

Although she sympathized with their situation, they were not doing charity. They would give a reasonable price, but forget about it if it exceeded the reasonable price.

Tan Xiu was in a hurry now, and she was going to make arrangements immediately.

Qin Xiang smiled and said, "I will stay in Hangzhou for a day, and I will go with you. Now you have to take me to visit the craftsman and repair the first batch of more than 100 pieces first."

"No problem."

Qin Xiang didn't even have time to have lunch, so she took the defective silk clothes to visit the craftsman.

Unexpectedly, the craftsman was an old man who looked to be over 60 years old. Tan Xiu couldn't help laughing, "Don't look at the old man's age, but his craftsmanship is very good. It's rare that he is not deaf or blind at this age."

Many people who do embroidery work have their eyes damaged at a young age, but the old man is over 60 years old and his eyes are still intact. He is indeed gifted.

Qin Xiang didn't dare to look down on him. He greeted him respectfully and took out the defective clothes for him to check.

Seeing the flaws on the good clothes, Master Sun frowned and said distressedly, "What a waste. Good things have become like this."

Some of these clothes actually have embroidery, but they are embroidered by machines. Master Sun obviously knows the current situation. He just glanced at them and looked down on them.

He didn't say much. He washed his hands first, and then smeared something on his hands. Then he took out his tools, matched the thread, and picked up a piece to repair it on the spot.

But this is a very troublesome thing. The master did it very carefully. Qin Xiang looked at the time and watched from the side.

Unexpectedly, this took nearly an hour.

"Take a look. If it's suitable, we can talk about other things."

Master Sun handed her the clothes. There was a little bird spreading its wings and ready to fly on the clothes.

The flaw of this dress is on the shoulder. Qin Xiang designed a little yellow oriole here. The master's craftsmanship is exquisite. The little yellow oriole is lifelike and very beautiful.

Qin Xiang praised, "Master Sun, your craftsmanship is really good."

Master Sun snorted and said bluntly, "Although I am retired, I am willing to take your job just to make money."

Qin Xiang nodded, "You are right, give me a real price."

Master Sun held up three fingers, "Three yuan for one piece."

Qin Xiang frowned, this price is not cheap.

Seeing that she seemed to disagree, Master Sun explained, "You have all kinds of colorful clothes, and I won't take your money for nothing. I will definitely make the patterns on them match your clothes. Otherwise, if you find someone with poor craftsmanship to embroider them, even if they don't charge you, they will ruin the clothes, and it will be a loss, don't you think?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "That's right."

Master Sun said, "This is a very expensive thing. Things that strain the eyes need rest. I can only repair three or five items a day at most. If I want to finish the repairs as soon as possible, I have to use this money to ask a friend to come and help me, which can improve efficiency, so I have to pay some of the three yuan. After the repairs, you will definitely sell it at a high price. Compared with your profit, these three yuan are not worth mentioning, right? "

Hearing him say this, Qin Xiang was a little surprised. I didn't expect Master Sun to see so clearly.

Master Sun said, "Although I am just a craftsman, I know that this batch of clothes is not made in a small workshop, and I can guess what the price is. What do you think of my proposal?" "

Okay, but not three yuan." Qin Xiang smiled, "I'll give you three and a half yuan for each piece. I only have one request, fast and good."

Master Sun smiled, "Okay."

Qin Xiang did not prepare the agreement in advance, and took out a pen and paper to write two cooperation agreements on the spot, with the delivery date, price and requirements clearly written, in triplicate, signed and fingerprinted, and Master Sun took them to the local street office and filed a copy there.

Although it was troublesome, it could also protect the rights and interests of both parties, which was good for everyone.

After finishing all this, they followed Master Sun to buy repair threads. Repairing these threads also requires extremely high standards, and they cannot be sloppy.

Qin Xiang and Tan Xiu also learned a little.

After everything was done, it was already late.

Qin Xiang and Tan Xiu came out, and Qin Xiang said, "Go back and have a rest, and go to Sucheng tomorrow."

She wanted to see the situation in Sucheng. She was also eager to collect the clothes that were scattered outside.

When she returned, Meng Huaiqing had already gotten up. Seeing her return, she called Miao Sheng, and dinner was brought to her soon.

Meng Huaiqing poured Qin Xiang a glass of red wine, "Try it, I brought it back specially when I returned to Gangcheng."

Qin Xiang smelled it, "Not bad."

But in fact, she didn't know much about wine. In her previous life, she had participated in the drinking culture, but she drank white wine. Qin Xiang's alcohol tolerance was not bad at that time, but she had not practiced it in this life, so her alcohol tolerance was not good.

Qin Xiang drank two more glasses in joy, and then got a little drunk. Meng

Huaiqing came out of the shower, took off the condom on his head, carefully wiped the hair around him, and said, "Help me."

Qin Xiang stood up, but her head was a little dizzy and she almost fell. Meng Huaiqing reached out to support her, "Be careful."

The two were very close, and Qin Xiang didn't know what she was thinking, and kissed him.

Meng Huaiqing's eyes were deep, "You seduced me."

Qin Xiang looked down, "It was obviously you who seduced me."

After that, Qin Xiang pushed him away and went to take a shower.

Hot water was poured over her head, and she sobered up a lot.

After taking a shower and changing into pajamas, Meng Huaiqing was already lying on the bed obediently.

Since Meng Huaiqing was injured, the two of them slept in the same bed every day, but they never did anything inappropriate for children. I don't know what happened today, I especially wanted to knock Meng Huaiqing down when I saw

him lying there obediently. I even thought Meng Huaiqing was very cute when I saw him lying there obediently.

Yes, he is cute.

Qin Xiang got on the bed, turned off the lights and lay down.

Meng Huaiqing leaned over.

"I feel I have an obligation to solve my girlfriend's physiological problems."

Qin Xiang took action directly, "Ha, man."

After the two of them finished their fierce battle, Qin Xiang checked Meng Huaiqing's head and found that there was nothing wrong, so he lay down, "Man, don't seduce me again."

Meng Huaiqing was in a good mood, "OK."

Agree first, but it's hard to say whether you can do it.

The two were about to go to sleep when they heard someone knocking on the door.

Miao Sheng bravely said, "Boss, it's urgent."
