Chapter 116 [Assemble!]
He Fangzhi felt a deep sense of helplessness when he heard He Manyu's question. No wonder he couldn't even compete with He Jing today. He Jing's teammate was Jiang Lili, and his teammate...
"Have you ever seen Auntie make a loss-making deal? Do you really think Auntie would be confused just because someone has a pretty face?"
He Manyu bit her lip and said, "So that's what you mean."
After He Shao announced that she would hand over the Peony Golden Seal to Jiang Lili, she warned everyone in the He family, "The agreement we reached with Miss Jiang today concerns the future survival of our entire He family. You must keep your mouths shut about what happened today. Otherwise, it will only harm the interests of our He family."
Although the He family members have their own little thoughts, they also understand that without the protection of the He family, they are nothing.
So everyone answered in unison: "Yes, Patriarch!"
After He Shao and Jiang Lili returned to their seats, He Lin's uncle started the conversation: "Master, the tribute will be sent to the capital in three days. Isn't it time to decide who will be in charge of the flower shop in the capital this time?"
He Shao rubbed his brows and said, "Yes, it's time to choose today. Does anyone have any ideas? Tell us."
Jiang Lili picked up the teacup and watched from the sidelines.
"Aunt, my nephew has volunteered to become the head of the Beijing Flower Shop!"
He Lin was the first to step forward.
Seeing this, He Fengqing said, "Aunt, I think cousin He Jing can also compete with cousin He Lin for this opportunity to go to Beijing."
He Lin glanced at He Fengqing and seemed to understand what this group of people were planning.
He Manyu suppressed her resentment and agreed with her brother: "Yes, He Jing has put in extraordinary efforts to achieve his performance today. In the past, He Jing and I didn't get along, and I thought he was unlearned and incompetent, but today, I was impressed by He Jing's performance."
"As the eldest brother, I want to speak a fair word."
He Fangzhi stood up and said, "Brother Jing has only worked hard for a month and has achieved such results. If he can go to the capital to gain experience, given his comprehension, he might be able to reach heights that we can't even imagine!"
He Jing was confused and flustered when he saw that his superficial relatives, who usually wanted to crush him like a cockroach, stood up one by one to support him.
It’s terrible, the sun just rose from the west.
He Jing turned his gaze to Jiang Lili who was eating peach blossom cakes on the side. Whether he went or not depended on his boss, and it would be right to follow the boss's wishes!
Jiang Lili noticed He Jing's gaze, winked at He Lin, and then continued to drink tea.
He Jing understood. In fact, he didn't want to go to the capital, nor did he have the ability to go.
After listening to what He Fangzhi and the others said, He Shao mentioned He Jing's name: "He Jing, everyone recommends you to go to the capital, what do you think?"
"Aunt, my brothers and sisters approve of me so much, so I'm sure they will approve of my decision as well." He Jing said in a resounding voice, "I support my cousin He Lin going to the capital!"
What? !
The He family members who had just made passionate speeches for He Jing were all dumbfounded. They supported He Jing, but in the end He Jing gave up his position to He Lin?
So what have they become?!
He Fangzhi was also unable to be dealt with by He Jing. Why would He Jing, who hated He Lin the most, give up this opportunity?
It was He Lin who gave way to He Jing.
After all, it was He Jing who rescued He Lin from prison.
"My nephew just wants to stay with my aunt in Lianzhou."
He Jing's words were sincere. He had just said this morning that he wanted to let his aunt rely on him like a child. How could he fly to the capital in the blink of an eye?
"The heterochromatic roses have just been cultivated, and there are still many things to be explained here."
He Jing said word by word, "Cousin He Lin is smarter than me, has more business experience and accounting skills than me, and can also write wonderful play scripts. When he arrives in the capital, he will surely be able to gain a foothold and become the right-hand man of our He family. However, I still have a lot to learn."
He ignored everyone's shocked and resentful looks, looked at Jiang Lili with an expression of "I did the right thing, didn't I?", and waited for the boss's praise.
Jiang Lili nodded with satisfaction, and He Jing felt even happier. The boss was very satisfied, and he could continue to hold on to his power in the future.
Asking him to go to the capital, what a joke!
He is able to reach his current level and performance only because of cramming. Wouldn't his true colors be revealed if he went to Beijing?
"Yes, Jing'er is so free and easy, and has a clear understanding of herself. I am very pleased."
He Shao praised: "Then this time, let Lin'er escort the tribute to the capital!"
He Jinglu congratulated He Lin, "Then I wish my cousin Lin a safe journey and immediate success!"
"Thank you for your support, cousin!" He Lin clasped his fists in response to He Jing.
He turned to He Shao and said, "Aunt, I will contact the escorts from Yuelai Escort Agency right away and ask them to ask two senior escorts to lead the way through the Qinglin Mountains. As long as we can cross the mountains safely, the delivery of the tribute will be mostly smooth."
"Lin'er is also familiar with the people at Yuelai Escort Agency?" He Shao smiled with satisfaction and said, "Then I made the right choice this time."
He Fangzhi's face turned pale and blue. He was the one who arranged the escorts to deliver the tribute.
He originally wanted to hire Yuelai Escort Agency, but their business was too booming and he couldn't afford it.
He Lin said that he could invite two experienced escorts to lead the way and escort the convoy. Isn't this a slap in his face?
He Shao glanced at the He family members in the hall: "We are one family and we don't have different opinions. As long as the work is done well, it doesn't matter who goes."
"I don't want brothers and sisters to hurt each other again."
Upon hearing this, everyone stood up and said yes in unison.
After having dinner at the He family, Jiang Lili took the carriage arranged by He Shao and returned to the post station.
There were also lots of gifts from He Shao for Jiang Lili on the carriage. Xin Che brought Xin Yan and Master Liao to help Jiang Lili get off the carriage.
Xin Yan has grown taller recently and looks more and more like a little adult. I heard that the little guy's sixth birthday will be in the spring.
Jiang Lili patted Xin Yan's head and asked, "Did you enjoy the buffet today?"
While helping Jiang Lili with her package, Xin Yan said, "I'm so happy! There are many dishes at the Lianzhou buffet that we haven't seen in the capital!"
"The He family is truly powerful. That buffet was spectacular." Master Liao winked at Jiang Lili, "Sister Li, you came back with so many bags. Did you manage to hook up with a rich woman?"
Jiang Lili kept it a secret: "Guess."
Master Liao put his hands behind his back and said, "He Lin has already announced the good news in the group. I guess it's done for you too."
The members of the Beijing team were very happy when they heard that He Lin was coming to Beijing from Lianzhou.
@Hou Xiaoxiao (Princess of Jin): We're in need of key personnel in the capital, and Li Xiaoguan can't leave in Linzhou. With He Lin here, our business in the capital will flourish!
@Zhou Jushan (Grand Chamberlain): I heard from Li Li that He Lin has even cultivated a group of marketing trolls in Lianzhou to manipulate public opinion. I can't imagine how powerful our Beijing team will become after you come to Beijing to develop your career.
