On the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, although there were few people on the street, there were many more people than yesterday.
At the bus station, a bus stopped. After opening the door, Bai Xi, wearing a pink winter coat, got out of the bus.
"call……"
"so cold!"
After getting off the car, Bai Xi took a breath and walked quickly to the flower shop.
A few minutes later, Bai Xi came to the door of the flower shop. Before the door opened, she saw several aunties waiting at the door.
"Manager Bai, you're here!" Three women, nearly fifty years old, greeted Bai Xi quickly when they saw Bai Xi walking from a distance.
"Aunt Zhao, Aunt Qian, Aunt Sun... you are here so early!" Bai Xi quickly came to the three guests and said.
"It's okay! It's not too early, it's almost nine o'clock." Aunt Zhao said with a smile.
"Originally we could have come later, but because we were anxious to buy spiritual plants, we came here early to wait for you to open the door," Aunt Qian said.
"It's because Lao Wu told us the wrong time when he called us last time. Otherwise, we wouldn't have to be in such a hurry." Aunt Sun said.
These three old customers of the store are all members of the city's song and dance troupe. Today they have to attend an event, so they came to the flower shop early in the morning to buy gifts.
While Bai Xi was chatting with the three aunts, she took out the key from her bag and opened the door of the flower shop.
After a while, she packed the spiritual plants of her choice for the three old customers and sent them to the door.
Watching the three old aunts leaving and getting into the car, Bai Xi looked away, then went to get a bucket and mop to mop the floor of the store.
In the first few days of the Chinese New Year, because there were fewer people on the street, the milk tea shop next to the flower shop did not open, and they would not open until a few days later.
After Bai Xi finished mopping the floor, she sat at the checkout counter for a while. At this time, Qin Shiyu, wearing a light blue winter coat, came to the store.
"Morning! Bai Xi."
"Morning!"
"Ah, when did you come? You have mopped the floor in the store." Qin Shiyu took a few steps into the store and found that the ground was a little damp. She immediately knew that the floor in the store had been mopped.
.
"I came ten minutes early." Bai Xi, who was sitting at the cashier, said with a smile.
"It was my turn to mop the floor today."
"I just had nothing to do, so I procrastinated."
"By the way, yesterday you said that three old customers were coming to buy spiritual plants early. Are they here?"
"I've been here. They were already waiting for me at the door of the store before I opened the door."
While Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi were chatting, a van drove out from the far corner on the road outside the store. This van was of ordinary style and quite new. It should have been bought not long ago.
After a while, the van parked in a parking space on the roadside, the door opened, and Niu Tao, who had short hair, got out of the van, holding three steamed buns and a glass of soy milk in his hand.
These breakfasts were bought from a breakfast stall near his home when he went out.
Standing under the tree on the roadside, she ate the breakfast in three swipes, threw the garbage into the trash can on the roadside, and then walked to the flower shop.
Although Bai Xi said that breakfast could be taken to the store, Niu Tao thought about it and decided to eat outside before going back to the store.
"Good morning, you two!" Niu Tao walked into the store and greeted Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi with a smile when he saw them chatting.
"Good morning."
"morning."
Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi turned around and responded to Niu Tao. At this time, they saw that Niu Tao was wearing different clothes from yesterday, and asked curiously.
"Strange, why did you change your clothes today? Yesterday's clothes were dirty, did you wash them?" Bai Xi asked.
"No, this dress was given to me by my friend. She asked me to wear it today, so I changed out of yesterday's dress." Niu Tao explained.
"Miss Wei must have given it to you!" Qin Shiyu guessed.
"Yes." Niu Tao nodded, then came to the table and sat down. He reached out and took out a candy from the plate on the table and opened it.
Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi looked at each other after hearing Niu Tao's answer. From what they learned from Niu Tao's mouth, they both now knew that Miss Wei was obviously interested in Niu Tao.
"Miss Wei gave you this outfit, did you give her any gifts in return?" Bai Xi asked curiously.
"No! She called me suddenly and asked me to see her, and then gave me this dress. I didn't have time to prepare a gift at all. I planned to pick out a gift for her after I was busy for a while.
Return the gift." Niu Tao said.
"Niu Tao! That Miss Wei is beautiful and has a good personality. She doesn't have a boyfriend now. I think you can take advantage of it," Qin Shiyu said.
"Uh..." Niu Tao was stunned for a moment when he heard what Qin Shiyu said, and then quickly shook his head, "We are just ordinary friends, and as for me, no one has ever talked to me about boyfriend and girlfriend.
.”
Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi looked at each other, feeling that what Niu Tao said was unreasonable, because they could clearly feel that Miss Wei was interested in Niu Tao.
In fact, who wouldn’t like a beautiful, gentle and rich Bai Fumei like Wei Xiang? Niu Tao mainly felt that he was not good enough for him, so he never thought about it, so naturally he couldn’t feel Wei Xiang’s influence on him.
special.
Just when Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi were about to persuade Niu Tao again, there was a loud noise at the door.
Then more than a dozen men and women walked into the flower shop. They had obviously made an appointment to buy spiritual plants together. After entering the store, they chatted with each other about which spiritual plants to buy.
When guests came to the door, Qin Shiyu, Bai Xi and Niu Tao immediately became busy.
No one asked for door-to-door delivery this morning, which allowed Niu Tao to stay in the store for a little longer.
Many customers came in one morning. Under the warm reception of the three people, these customers all bought something dissatisfied and left happily.
"How about we find a restaurant to eat together after get off work tonight, and then go to KTV to sing some songs?" Bai Xi, who returned to the cashier and sat down at noon, suddenly made this suggestion.
"all right!"
"OK!"
Qin Shiyu and Niu Tao nodded, and then Qin Shiyu said again, "Call the boss! See if he is free. If so, come out to eat and sing together."
Bai Xi recalled that after taking a shower last night, she sent a message to Lin Fei to ask for a reply about going out to eat and sing together today, and then said to the two of them.
"I sent a message last night to ask, and my boss said he was busy in the next few days."
"That's it! It's not easy for the boss to be so busy during the Chinese New Year," Niu Tao said.
"Woof woof woof..."
Just when the three people in the flower shop were about to order takeout for lunch, a thrilling barking sound suddenly came from the street outside the flower shop, which immediately attracted the attention of the three people in the shop.
When the three people in the store came to the door and looked towards the place where the barking came from, they found that it was two stray dogs on the street barking at each other.
"Where did this stray dog come from?" Niu Tao asked doubtfully.
"These two stray dogs are so vicious and scary. It would be terrible if a passerby accidentally gets bitten by them." Bai Xi said with some worry on her face.
"Were there any stray dogs around here before? They must have been abandoned by others!
Yesterday I read the news that some people went home to celebrate the New Year and did not plan to return to Rongcheng, so they abandoned their dogs," Qin Shiyu said.
After saying that, a light golden light flashed through her eyes, and the two stray dogs that were about to fight in the distance froze, and then became quiet.
"Let's make a call and ask people from the relevant departments to take them away! It would be bad if they bite passers-by," Niu Tao said.
"Yeah." Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi nodded. Rongcheng does have relevant departments to take in these abandoned stray dogs.
Then Niu Tao made a phone call and told him the address and situation. After the operator from the relevant department recorded the information, he said he would send someone to handle it immediately.
"Let's order takeout!" Bai Xi said after seeing Niu Tao finish the call. Then she took out her mobile phone and opened the takeout app, and the three of them began to discuss what to eat for lunch.
Two stray dogs that were about to get into a fight on the street outside the store were now squatting on the roadside obediently after being given special powers, waiting for personnel from the relevant departments to take them away and settle them down.
…………
During the New Year holiday, it can be said that everyone should be happy, but some people are in a very bad mood right now.
In a villa complex, in a large villa near a remote corner, the owner has not slept all day and night in the study room, and now he is very haggard.
The bloated middle-aged man was sitting on an office chair with a cigar in his mouth. The worry between his brows was obvious at a glance.
"Dong dong dong..."
Suddenly someone knocked on the study door, and a bloated middle-aged man smoking a cigar said immediately.
"Come in."
"Click."
After the door opened, a young man with earrings and a young man with glasses walked in.
"Boss." Two young men came to stand in front of the desk and greeted in unison.
"How is the situation? Are there any investigators looking for their families?" The bloated middle-aged man took off the cigar from his mouth and said in a worried tone.
He was very nervous now. Although he had said before that he had no evidence and was not afraid of investigators finding the family members of the arrested person, the fact was that he was not as afraid as he said.
"According to the news from the people I arranged, no investigators have contacted those people's families in the past few days." said the young man with earrings in his ears.
"call……"
After receiving this answer, the nervous and bloated middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief. Then he turned his head, looked at the young man wearing glasses, and said.
"Let the people under my command stay calm in the next few months and don't cause trouble for me. If anyone dares to cause trouble for me, I will break his legs."
The young man wearing glasses walked away and nodded, "It's the boss, I will make everyone be more honest..."
After the questions that should be asked were asked, and the things that had to be explained were explained, just when the bloated middle-aged man was about to wave his hand and let the two men leave, leaving him alone for a while, the door of the study room was knocked again.
"Dong dong dong..."
"Come in."
As soon as he finished speaking, a bald man walked in with a panicked expression.
"What's wrong?" asked the bloated middle-aged man.
"Boss, someone from the Black Chess organization just contacted me and said that after a while, another batch of goods will be arranged for us. We must ensure that this batch of goods is delivered to the customers safely, otherwise, the new accounts and the old accounts will be together.
Forget it," the bald man said.
"..."
The atmosphere in the study room suddenly fell into a dead silence because of what the bald man said. The three subordinates could clearly feel that after hearing these words, the anger in their boss's heart rushed to the top of his head.
"What the hell, the guys from the Black Chess Organization can stand and talk without pain in their backs. They don't have to take any risks thousands of miles away. With just a few words, it seems like everything they do can be easily accomplished." The bloated middle-aged man was silent for a long time.
The young man cursed loudly.
The three subordinates saw the bloated middle-aged man getting angry, looked at each other, and then lowered their heads.
The bloated middle-aged man vented his anger, raised his hand, rubbed his eyebrows, and asked his three subordinates.
"Tell me what we should do next. Not long ago, our cargo transporter was captured by investigators from the Superpower Administration. Now is the time when the news is tight.
It’s just that the people in the Black Chess organization don’t understand us, but they actually want to ship another batch of goods for us to deal with after a while. If they are caught on the spot by investigators from the Superpower Administration, it will be all over.”
When the three subordinates heard the bloated middle-aged man asking for a solution, they raised their heads and frowned in thought.
Obviously, this problem is too difficult to solve and they cannot come up with a solution.
The bloated middle-aged man saw that the faces of his three subordinates were full of contemplation, but no solution was given for a long time. He waved his hands in disappointment.
"Go down! You go back and think about it slowly. If you have a better solution, come back and tell me..."
"Yes, boss." The three men nodded and turned to leave.
When the three men were about to walk out of the study room, the young man who was walking in the front with earrings in his ears suddenly had an idea. He stopped and turned to face the fat man who was smoking a cigar.
The middle-aged man said.
"Boss, I've thought of a way. Although it's not particularly good, I think we can use it in this situation."
The bloated middle-aged man with a depressed look didn't hold out much hope when he heard what the young man with earrings said. He said in a calm tone.
"What do you think."
"Boss, I think we can do this. Since the people in the Black Chess organization can stand and talk without pain, let us help them transport goods now when the risks are so high, so don't blame us for not being friendly." Wearing it on his ears.
The young man with earrings said.
