Chapter 110 [He Lin's Gift]
Jiang Lili had long expected such a questioning scene. She smiled slightly and was sure that everything was ready today.
The high-pressure atmosphere during Yang Yunzhao's lectures was far more terrifying than these voices of doubt. He Jing responded calmly, "Don't bother with that. The dyes used for dyeing are inedible. I've already made flower cakes with the petals of these different-colored roses for everyone to enjoy."
He Jing clapped his hands, and eight dancers came up with flower baskets and distributed flower cakes to the guests in the front row. In order to reassure everyone, He Jing took the lead in picking up a flower cake with orange rose petals and stuffed it into his mouth.
Seeing He Jing like this, others also tasted the flower cakes one after another.
"Wow, it tastes pretty good. You can taste the bitterness of the rose petals, but the ingredients in this flower cake neutralize the bitterness."
"Cakes made with petals of different colors taste different!"
"Mr. He, can you give me another piece?"
The flower cakes were very popular at the banquet, so He Jing took advantage of the situation and said, "If you would like to order these flower cakes, please come to this young lady after the banquet to pay the deposit!"
He Jing pointed at Jiang Lili and said, "One tael of silver per box, five per box! Pay half as a deposit. My He's pastry shop will also gradually add flower cakes to the shelves, but it will take some time."
Jiang Lili never thought that she could make a fortune just by coming to the banquet. Yes, He Jing is very considerate!
Upon hearing this, the girl in blue next to Jiang Lili was immediately interested.
However, seeing that the people around Jiang Lili were getting impatient, the girl in blue quickly said to them, "Please come back one by one after the banquet. The banquet isn't over yet, so don't disturb them."
All the people who came to the banquet were respectable people. Even if they wanted to order flower cakes now, they had to hold back and wait until the banquet was over. Jiang Lili smiled gratefully at the girl in blue.
The girl in blue winked at her and said, "Be the first one to collect my money later."
Jiang Lili smiled: "Of course."
Everyone can also tell that these roses are not dyed.
"This flower was truly grown, it can't be dyed like this!"
"Congratulations, Patriarch. Congratulations, Patriarch. Now you have secured your position as the imperial court's supplier."
At this time, He Manyu and his sister's faces were hurt by the beating, and they didn't dare to speak easily.
He Fangzhi's expression changed again and again. He originally thought that he had a sure chance of getting the spot to open a flower shop in the capital.
But unexpectedly, this traitor He Jing suddenly made a comeback as if possessed by a god.
But that’s not all.
Just as everyone was congratulating the master, a servant ran into the courtyard and announced, "Master! Someone has delivered some silver!"
Then, everyone saw the escorts wearing jerseys embroidered with the words "Yuelai Escort Agency" carrying boxes of silver into the yard.
There were a total of 50,000 taels of silver, with one box weighing 2,000 taels, a total of 25 boxes. The scene was very spectacular, and the venue for the birthday banquet was filled to the brim!
He Jing explained, "Aunt, this is the final payment for my nephew's help in disposing of unsold medicinal herbs. I didn't expect it to coincide with your birthday party. It's a great day for wealth to come to you, doubling the joy!"
He Shao asked in surprise: "Have you sold all those medicinal herbs?"
"Most of them have been sold." He Jing replied, "But Manyu and Fengqing, your herbs were delivered too late, so they didn't arrive at the right time."
"Young Master Li has enough, so I've returned it to you. You can handle it yourselves."
He Manyu and He Fengqing, the brother and sister, had targeted him many times in the past, and they had gone even further recently. He Jing would not be stupid enough to help these brother and sister sell medicinal herbs.
When the brother and sister heard that He Jing could help process these herbs, they were hesitant. He Jing simply took the opportunity to play a trick on them and let them watch other brothers and sisters earn money.
The younger brothers and sisters of He Jing's generation did not have such bad intentions. They would follow whoever was stronger. When they saw that He Jing really helped them solve the big problem, their eyes changed suddenly when they looked at He Jing. They rushed up and surrounded He Jing.
"Cousin, you are so awesome! I will follow you from now on!"
"From now on, if you point east, I will never go west. If you need anything, just tell me, brother!"
The young people’s admiration is very straightforward, and He Jing is very pleased with their admiration.
Upon hearing that the medicinal materials had been returned, He Fengqing and his sister immediately felt uncomfortable.
He Shao watched as such a large balance of payments was safely delivered, then looked at the tall and strong escorts: "Is this the escort agency of Mr. Li from Linzhou?"
The leading escort said, "Yes, Master, you can send someone to count the number."
As soon as the He family received the news that the balance of the payment had arrived in Lianzhou, they sent someone to count it. Now they replied, "Master, the amount of silver matches our accounts!"
He Shao was full of praise: "I've heard about Yuelai Escort Agency's reputation for speed and stability, and today I finally saw it."
"Someone come and show the escorts tea, reward!"
The reputation of Li Sicong and Guan Yue's Yuelai Escort Agency has been further enhanced in the Lingnan region through the birthday banquet of the head of the He family!
Almost all the wealthy businessmen doing business in Lingnan region attended the banquet. After seeing the amazing escorting skills of Yuelai Escort Agency, they quietly included Yuelai Escort Agency in their list of potential escort agencies for transporting valuables.

After He Jing presented the gift, he winked at Jiang Lili, indicating that Jiang Lili should go talk aside.
Jiang Lili left the table and came to the side. "What's wrong?"
He Jing lowered his voice and asked, "Boss, do you still have that perfume you sprayed on me earlier?"
Jiang Lili didn't bring any, so she sent a message to Xiaopang to ask if he had any. When Xiaopang replied, she sniffed, frowned, and looked at He Jing: "Why do you smell a little bit?"
He Jing tried his best to maintain his cool and cool image, and said calmly, "Just now, when the pigeon was hiding in my sleeve, I pooped."
“Puff——”
Jiang Lili was about to burst out laughing!
Especially with He Jing's expression as if nothing happened!
Jiang Lili, a workaholic, used to work part-time as a magician's props assistant. The magic trick of turning flowers into pigeons was not difficult, so she taught it to He Jing. He Jing practiced it many times and finally showed his trick in front of everyone today.
Jiang Lili looked at the corner of He Jing's sleeve that was hidden and was stained with pigeon droppings - this time he really let something slip.
At this time, Xiaopang replied to Jiang Lili.
@张小胖: How could a rough guy like me possibly own perfume? Do you want some Liushen floral water?
Jiang Lili: ...
@江麗麗: That's fine too. As long as it smells good, that's all I need.
Not long after, there was a bottle of floral water in the backpack at Jiang Lili's feet. Jiang Lili sprayed it on He Jing a few times to make the food marinated.
And after that, no one who sent gifts after He Jing could impress people anymore.
"He Xun of the He family presented a cluster of South China Sea coral and a golden jade screen!"
"He Zhili of the He family presented Chang'e with a jade rabbit mirror and a sea dragon, a pearl, and a coral ornament."
......
No matter how precious or unique the gifts given by those who came later were, they were never as impressive as the gift given by He Jing.
It was today that He Jing, the ridiculed and despised member of the He family, avenged his past humiliation and made the entire Lianzhou change their view of him.
Soon, it was the turn of He Lin, the most popular and most handsome man in Lianzhou, to present a gift.
"Please, He Lin of the He family presents a gift!"
