Chapter 217 Invisible pretense
"You don't have to believe me."
Speaking of this, Jiang Lili listened to the heavy rain still falling outside the window of the private room. Her eyes rolled, and she stood up and propped up the window behind her.
The windows had been propped up and wind and rain immediately poured in, blowing the shopkeepers into a mess.
Shopkeeper Ma frowned immediately. Does Shopkeeper Jiang want him to wake up?
Just when everyone was puzzled, Jiang Lili said in a clear voice: "The rain outside the window will stop for a quarter of an hour, shopkeepers, hurry back now."
After Jiang Lili finished speaking, she stood up and was about to leave.
Everyone looked out the window following Jiang Lili's words. At this moment, the sound of rain and wind outside the window was fierce, but the moment Jiang Lili stood up, the sound of rain outside the window suddenly became smaller.
Slowly, the rain that had been falling heavily just now stopped, and the weather outside became mild. Only the wind pushed the veil on Jiang Lili's veil and the lotus-colored hem of her dress. She was like a lotus swaying in the breeze, independent and mysterious, which made people feel awe.
This scene was so shocking that many people got goosebumps. Jiang Lili looked like the god who controlled the weather!
Those who had not believed Jiang Lili's prediction of the weather just now immediately changed their minds.
She is worthy of being the sworn sister of the head of the He family. This is what it means to be young and promising!
Even Shopkeeper Ma felt ashamed of himself for his ability to predict celestial phenomena. He originally thought that he could defeat everyone here just by being able to read faces, but he never expected that there are always better people out there.
The ability to predict celestial phenomena is extremely important on Haizhou Island and in the sea where the wind and rain change rapidly. It may even save lives, not to mention protecting goods and coordinating traffic.
Seeing that Jiang Lili was about to leave the private room, Shopkeeper Ma and several other shopkeepers tried to stop her: "Shopkeeper Jiang, please stay!"
Shopkeeper Ma bowed slightly and apologized quickly: "I was offended just now. I didn't realize that Shopkeeper Jiang was born from the Purple Star and the girl of destiny came to earth."
Hearing Manager Ma praising herself like that, Jiang Lili sighed that the owner of the stone shop was really adaptable. She had previously thought that this Manager Ma with a unique personality had a temper as stubborn as a stone!
The Ziwei Star was born and the girl of destiny came down to earth. Jiang Lili silently repeated this sentence in her heart and suddenly had some new ideas.
At this time, Shopkeeper Ma apologized, and the other shopkeepers who had just kept their cool and did not confront Jiang Lili directly criticized Shopkeeper Ma and expressed their loyalty to Jiang Lili.
It would be incredible if I could hold on to this guy's golden thigh!
The innkeeper rubbed his hands excitedly. He was close to the owner and was the most familiar with Manager Jiang among all the people present.
He spoke first: "In this case, let's talk about how to make a fortune from the old man Huang! And expand the influence of our He family in Haizhu County!
The others became excited after hearing what he said and offered suggestions actively. At this time, the discussion about making money was as exciting as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
When everyone had almost finished discussing, Jiang Lili made some suggestions: "This continuous rain will inevitably affect the normal lives of the people. We can distribute some medicines that can remove dampness and resist wind, cold and inflammation at a low price or for free."
Jiang Lili turned her gaze to the owner of the medicine shop, Fan Qiu: "Manager Fan, I think the indigo plant you researched before you came here is very good. It can resist infection and inflammation caused by moisture. Our He family is a big flower dealer, so we have no shortage of indigo plants."
After Jiang Lili finished speaking, she briefly summarized her statement and prepared to leave: "Okay, now that everyone has discussed it, let's do it right away. There are only five days left, so hurry up!"
Fan Qiu's face paused after hearing this. She bowed and asked Jiang Lili, "How did Shopkeeper Jiang know that you had contact with indigo before coming down here?"
Jiang Lili stretched out a hand, pointed at her jade-colored nails, and then left like a gust of wind. After chattering for so long, she couldn't help but go to the kitchen of Fuzhu Restaurant to beg for money and give snacks to her accomplices. Good things should be shared together.
When she was in school, Jiang Lili, an orphan, had problems with food and clothing. She was as thin as a bean sprout. Everyone in the class took good care of her. Whoever brought something delicious would leave a portion for her. During the three years of high school, they managed to feed the malnourished Jiang Lili until she was healthy and well-proportioned.
Jiang Lili waved her sleeves and left, leaving the shopkeepers in the private room to savor the moment for a long time.
Fan Qiu lowered his head and cleared the indigo color left by the indigo juice in the cracks of his fingernails.
Indigo is a herb that can reduce inflammation and detoxify. It can also be used as a dye to create blue.
Shopkeeper Jiang deduced that he had come into contact with Indigo just by observation, and he immediately thought of the efficacy of this medicinal herb, which was so terrifying!
Even Fan Qiu, who was usually calm, got goosebumps at this moment.
She told this little episode to all the shopkeepers present.
After hearing this, everyone exclaimed: "He can see the big picture from the small details. This is a genius!"
Upon hearing this, the fishmonger hurriedly thanked Fan Qiu: "Shopkeeper Fan is indeed very patient. Shopkeeper Jiang was so perfunctory during the meeting. He was really testing us to see who can't sit still!"
The innkeeper stroked his beard and shook his head: "Manager Jiang was in a hurry to leave. He probably didn't want to say anything to us stupid people. You have to be careful in the future and show your loyalty at all times. Don't let Manager Jiang dislike us!"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
But in fact, Jiang Lili was able to tell that Fan Qiu had come into contact with indigo before coming here, all because of the cheat of the imperial physician squad leader. It is said that Shopkeeper Fan opened a good doctor's hall, which specializes in training female doctors and medicine boys. Jiang Lili wanted to leave a deep impression on Shopkeeper Fan. She noticed that Fan Qiu's nails were of a strange color, so she sent it to the squad leader to ask, and unexpectedly she got something.
Thinking of Shopkeeper Fan's expression at that time, Jiang Lili felt that her invisible show-off must have been quite successful this time.
At this time, Jiang Lili had no idea that the group of people in the private room had already started to reflect on themselves. She was giving instructions in the kitchen of Fuzhu Restaurant.
"I want five of these!"
"Here, here, pack it up and take it away!"
Following Jiang Lili's movements, the waiter behind her quickly put the dishes into the food boxes.
Jiang Lili pointed at a light pink sugar roll on the table and said, "Why haven't I seen this on my table before? Let me try it."
Immediately, a chef served Jiang Lili a separate portion and picked up his chopsticks respectfully: "Boss, this is a new dish that our restaurant has developed, the Honey Dawn Roll. I don't know how the feedback is yet, so I dare not serve it to you."
Jiang Lili tasted a piece. It was sweet but not greasy. She remembered that Xin Che particularly liked sweet food.
"Not bad, not bad. Give me one of these and make it more exquisite!"
Every time she took out some colorful candies and put them in Xin Che's palms, Xin Che's beautiful phoenix eyes were always particularly bright, like a cold and arrogant big puppy being fed. It was very contrasting. Jiang Lili didn't expect that the God of War actually liked to eat the little sweets from girls.
