Chapter 123
Gao Xina here is still uneasy. Since she learned the ownership of the street of the French Consulate from her second concubine, her little heart was like a fire. She finally waited until dawn the next day and found a reason to go out.
"Where are you going so early? Find a few servants to follow!" The third concubine was a little worried.
"No need, mom, who doesn't know what the security in Nanjing is like, so don't worry at all!" Gao Xina said angrily.
The third concubine agreed with this. After all, the police officers incorporated in Nanjing City are all under the jurisdiction of the Military Supervision Office.
Gao Xina got the consent of the third concubine and went out happily.
It was drizzling outside. As soon as Gao Xina went out, a cold wind came out and she shivered.
It has been in autumn, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is large. If it weren't for the purpose of showing this ancient dress, she wouldn't have worn this outfit.
Thinking of this, Gao Xina gathered her shawl again.
The road was still very dark at this time, and Gao Xina regretted it after she left. Because the rent on the French consulate was expensive, all the merchants opened very early. Because the "Wu Ming" store was very well-known in the upper class. If she went late, it would be inconvenient for other customers to speak, so she had to go early in the morning.
At this time, only the human-powered rickshaw was all dispatched. Gao Xina felt a little cold. She would have known that she would have asked the driver to take her away after hearing what her mother said.
Forget it, my mother said yesterday that the reputation of the people is very important to her father. If my mother finds out about this, why might she scold her!
After gritting his teeth, Gao Xina called a human-powered rickshaw.
"Miss, you've worn too little. The weather has become colder and rainy recently. Be careful to leave the root of your legs. My old woman, I didn't pay attention when I was young, and now I can't walk." The coachman kindly reminded.
Gao Xina rolled her eyes, how could you compare with her? But she was still tired when she explained to such a person, so she simply curled her lips and refused to respond.
When the coachman saw Gao Xina not responding, he no longer made himself bored. Nowadays, the young ladies in the upper class are all above the top and look down on what they say, "bottom-level" people. In fact, they are just coming through bit by bit these days, but it doesn't matter. He has been pulling the cart for more than ten years and has seen all kinds of people. He has long been accustomed to this lady!
Then, the coachman increased his foot strength and his speed became faster.
The cold wind swayed into Gao Xina's neck with the speed of the car. Gao Xina suddenly felt a little regretful. She wore this dress to show her nobleness, but today's weather~~~
After a while, the coachman pulled Gao Xina to the door of "Wuming". The closed door of "Wuming" seemed so out of place compared to the brightly lit lights of other merchants.
Gao Xina tightened her collar, why don’t she wait for a while.
Time passed by minute by minute. Now Gao Xina at the door of "Wu Ming" is getting colder and colder, and there are more and more merchants opening the door. Almost all streets have no stores except "Wu Ming".
It was already dawn, and all kinds of workers began to perform their duties and began a day of work.
"I'm so lazy!" Gao Xina, whose legs were frozen, stomped her feet, and her legs were so cold that they were about to lose consciousness.
At this time, an aunt who was sweeping the street saw Gao Xina coming over, "Little girl, are you going to buy something?" The aunt looked at the store sign and said with concern.
Gao Xina was disdainful, but she was so cold that she nodded reluctantly.
"Their shop is famous for opening late, and it basically opens after noon, and it is closed shortly after it opens." said the aunt.
"What! Until noon?"
"Yes, their things are novel. They are said to be made from the West. They are very popular among the young ladies and ladies in the upper class. So every time there is something new, they will line up very early." The sweeping aunt looked around and looked, "Miss, do you have any inside information? Their family has a new one?"
If so, she had to tell her sisters that her sisters were servants in different families, but they all used one thing in common, that is, they all liked the things in this store, so every time she helped queue up, she was rewarded! And the money from these rewards was much more than her street sweeping, so what else could she say? She could only say that she didn't understand the world of rich people!
"Maybe." Gao Xina didn't know this, so she responded casually, and because of her words, she had been waiting in line for most of the day. Of course, this is a later story.
The sweeping aunt couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes, but Gao Xina was a little puzzled.
In a blink of an eye, the sweeping aunt disappeared.
Gao Xina shrugged. The aunt just said that the door would only be opened after noon, so wouldn’t she be waiting to die?
No! She wasn't in the frame of her! The last time she and Luo Shunu came, it was in the morning!
I really shouldn't listen to their inferior people!
Gao Xina smiled sarcastically, but it was really cold. This ancient dress is mainly breathable. It looks like ice silk in summer. Its material is silky, so it is expensive because of the material.
But at this time, the advantage of this material was about to freeze her to death!
Just because she is so cold to her, she will cut off a few more goldfish later!
Half an hour later, just when Gao Xina thought her legs were about to be broken, suddenly a group of people walked towards her, and in a short while, they were filled with her.
"I don't know what the new product is today. The lady said, just help her grab it and get one and reward ten silvers for one." A woman in line said.
"Our lady wants it too, but unfortunately they only ask each of them to buy one, otherwise we will send it!"
"That's right, have you heard that the little daughter of Sister Chun's family was recruited to be a clerk. I wonder if she can buy one more?"
"There's nothing to do. Their rules and regulations are very strict. I heard that Sister Chun comes to queue up by herself. However, Sister Chun can receive the news first. She can always be in the front and choose first. Why didn't she come today?" said a woman.
"There are always exceptions in everything, how can she take all the benefits? Anyway, we can show off after buying it back this time!"
Several people in the queue were talking quietly, Gao Xina was confused when she heard this. Is this small shop so popular? So awesome?
Why did she doubt life a little?
Of course, she was more suspicious of life.
Seeing a long queue here, many pedestrians came to join in the fun. Everyone now knows that "no name" new products are hard to come by. As long as you buy them, you can make a lot of money by selling them. This is like a modern real estate speculation group, which keeps changing hands and making a difference. As long as some are willing to buy them, some people will sell them.
Gao Xina's face was full of dark lines. She came out so early just to be able to say a few words to the boss alone. As a result, there were so many people standing by, what should she say?
It was reported that her father knew about it, it would be strange if he didn't take her surgery!
Gao Xina thought about it and decided to give the people behind her some benefits and let her go in later.
As a result, Gao Xina took out the silver dollar and talked to the person behind her. The person behind her looked at the silver dollar in Gao Xina's hand with disdain. How many times the bonus for buying new products is more than you!
"That's right, I'm so embarrassed to take out this little money!"
"Forget it, sesame seeds are also meat. You are spoiled by Wuming now and have a big appetite!"
A few people who were familiar with each other made Gao Xina’s face flushed. She really wanted to tell these unsavvy women loudly that the whole street was controlled by her father!
Of course, her father Gao Jun has not yet performed the inauguration ceremony. If he leaked out early, he would easily ruin Gao Jun's good things, so she would not dare to otherwise Gao Jun might break her leg.
I don’t know whether because of being ridiculed by these rural women or because it was too cold, Gao Xina’s teeth began to tremble.
At this time, the nameless clerk that Gao Xina saw that day came over from not far away. When she saw the person at the door, she frowned. Why do she feel that the situation is a little wrong? Are these people all...
Without thinking too much about her, everyone was already very excited to see her. The clerk walked from the other side to the front door and saw Gao Xina trembling with cold.
The clerk looked at Gao Xina and suddenly wanted to laugh. She wore Guli's skirt in such a cold day~~ She should be here to show off. After all, Guli is expensive, but do she know that Guli was actually designed by the boss?
I shook my head, probably I didn't know, otherwise how could I endure the cold and get the humiliation.
"Hey, didn't your boss come?" Gao Xina asked loudly when she saw her alone.
"Our boss rarely comes to the store." The clerk didn't raise his head.
"What! She doesn't come to the store wherever she goes!" Gao Xina's voice changed. She had been waiting for a whole morning, but she actually waited for such a sentence.
"That's the boss's business. It's my turn to ask. The lady is really proud of me!" said the clerk, opening the door.
"Please come in first!"
Everyone naturally knew that Gao Xina was the first, so there was no controversy. When they came, this stupid person was already standing here.
Although they are giving wealthy families a glimpse of their eyes, they have been looking at them for so many years. In such a cold weather, it can also show that this skirt is very expensive and stupid. It is really stupid. Who will be responsible for the cold disease?
What's more, no one knows whether "no name" things are priced, or just one or two or three things are more expensive than Guli's skirts!
"I want to find your boss!" Gao Xina didn't look at things and directly told her demands.
"If you want to find a boss, you can only take your luck. If you don't buy anything, please wait outside." The clerk was a little rude.
"Do you know who I am?" The first time someone looked down on her so much, and this person was a trivial clerk. How could this work? How could it work! She didn't accept it!
"Is it important?" The clerk didn't even raise his eyelids. "If you are not buying things, please leave here, next one!"
