Xing Haodong's face darkened instantly, and a few blue veins popped out on his neck.
But in front of Jiang Mingxin, he couldn't get angry with Jiang Rou, so he could only suppress his anger and kicked Jiang Bin angrily.
Jiang Bin was extremely helpless and tried his best to persuade Jiang Rou to leave.
When gods fight, the little ghosts suffer. He is so innocent.
Jiang Mingxin suppressed the smile on his lips, got in the car, and looked out the window at the heavy rain that suddenly came.
"Sister Xiaorou said that my interview would be broadcast on the city TV evening news in three days. If I remember correctly, that day should be the day when Jiang Dawei and Yan Laoer's case went to court."
Xing Haodong nodded: "Yes, it starts at 2 pm. I will pick you up then."
"No need, I know where the county court is. I can just ride my bike there." Jiang Mingxin stretched out his hand and drew an orchid on the vapor-filled glass, his voice soothing and peaceful.
"Although Sister Xiaorou has a bad temper, she's a reasonable person. Although she was prejudiced against me at first, after understanding the full picture, she sincerely apologized to me. Her interview was also well written. It didn't make me feel too uncomfortable and also respected objective facts... I think..."
Xing Haodong interrupted, "Don't we need to buy some books? Jiang Bin has already inquired about it. The teaching aid wholesale market is not far from here. It should be there in about ten minutes."
Jiang Bin agreed: "Yes, it's not far. Let's go now?"
"Let's wait until the rain is lighter." Xing Haodong looked quietly at the rain and fog outside the window, and once again uncontrollably thought of the heavy rain.
The thin back, the wet black hair, and the fair face full of water droplets...
Jiang Mingxin curled his lips slightly, a smile appearing in his black pupils, "It seems that the rain that day was also this heavy."
Xing Haodong nodded silently.
There seemed to be a tacit understanding between the two that needed no words.
The air temperature in the car suddenly rose by several degrees, making Jiang Bin feel sticky all over.
After a while, the rain finally subsided. Xing Haodong stepped on the accelerator and drove the jeep onto the main road.
Jiang Mingxin wandered around the teaching aid wholesale market and finally found the English tutorial book she wanted.
Next year's college entrance examination English test will be standardized. Once this news is released, the English teaching supplementary book in her hand that best meets the test instructions will be in short supply.
The bookseller looked at Xing Haodong behind her and said, "Boss, how many copies do you want? This book just arrived. It's written by a famous teacher and uses the best paper. If you want more, the price is negotiable."
Xing Haodong raised his eyes and asked Jiang Mingxin, "How many copies do you want?"
The bookseller was stunned. How could this girl be the boss?
Jiang Mingxin smiled and said to him, "I want a thousand copies. Can you give me a 60% discount?"
"60% off? Are you kidding me? I brought this tutorial book back from out of town with great difficulty. The original price was 1.8 yuan. If you offer a 60% discount, I'm definitely going to lose money."
The bookseller wanted to chase her away. "You said you wanted a thousand copies. Don't make fun of me. Even Xinhua Bookstore can't get so many copies!"
Xing Haodong also felt that this number was too much. There were only two or three hundred students in the county's No. 1 High School who were in their senior year. Even if everyone bought a copy, it would be far from enough to consume a thousand copies.
He wanted to persuade her, but when he saw Jiang Mingxin staring at the books with sparkling eyes, he swallowed his words back.
Forget it. If he really can’t sell it, he can just secretly hire someone to buy it.
Jiang Mingxin explained with a faint smile, "I wouldn't dare make fun of something like this. I bought these 1,000 books on behalf of several bookstores. I'm just making a profit from the difference. Please give me a 40% discount. At the end of the year, I'll need another 1,000 copies of the 1989 College Entrance Examination English Exam Instructions. I won't bargain with you then. You can take whatever price you say. Okay?"
The bookseller was surprised. "Are you serious?"
"Of course, I can pay you the deposit first. You need to write me a receipt." Jiang Mingxin took out a hundred yuan from her bag and handed it to him. "I hope to cooperate with you for a long time. Please pay more attention to it."
She was worried that someone would intercept her, so she made preparations in advance.
The bookseller immediately smiled. "Okay, okay, since you're so willing and have ordered so many, I'll give you a 60% discount on these 1,000 English tutorial books! How are you going to transport them? Do you have a car?"
Xing Haodong said, "We have a car. You can use the trailer to deliver it to our door."
"Okay, then could you please leave your contact information and pay for the books, young lady?" The bookseller immediately became attentive to Jiang Mingxin. He instructed the workers to pack up the books and carefully covered them with waterproof cloth.
Xing Haodong and Jiang Bin helped move the books into the trunk.
In the end, there were still a few piles that couldn't fit in, so they were piled on the back seat.
The sky was getting darker and darker, so the three of them hurried back. When they arrived at the county town, the rain was getting heavier and heavier. Even with the headlights on, the visibility on the road was very blurry.
Jiang Mingxin frowned slightly and said, "There's no way to move the books now. How about we put them in your car and wait until the weather clears up tomorrow?"
Xing Haodong thought so too. He parked the car downstairs of the machinery factory dormitory and took out an umbrella and handed it to her.
"It's raining heavily, you can hold it."
Jiang Mingxin took it and said, "Thank you."
She opened the car door, held the umbrella over her head, waved to him and Jiang Bin, and quickly disappeared into the rain.
Jiang Bin was a little puzzled, "When did you buy this umbrella? Why haven't I seen it before?"
Xing Haodong's voice was calm and composed: "I just bought it two days ago. You were not here at the time."
"You're really willing to give it up! That's a folding umbrella, the kind you only buy in department stores, right? And it's red. Didn't you always wear a raincoat and think an umbrella wouldn't protect you from the rain?" Jiang Bin suddenly had an idea. "Oh my god, you're not going to... Oh my god, you're so heartless, hitting me again!"
