Chapter 658 I am a weak woman
What is the Qingming Festival?

In Miss Jiang’s impression.

It's just a family, gathering in front of the cemetery or the cemetery in Laoshan.

One by one or together, they kowtow and burn incense in front of the ancestral tablets.

Then each family offered their own tribute.

Honor your ancestors.

Wait till it's over.

Walking on the mud, each going back to their own home, each looking for their own mother.

of course.

That is the custom of Linjiang.

And on the Dongsui side.

This opened Miss Jiang's eyes a little.

Not to mention the smoke curling around the place, and the big red lanterns and colorful flags decorating the area.

Not to mention the firecrackers, cannons, and pipa cannons, which were piled up in bundles nearby.

Just look at what the Xie family is wearing.

Miss Jiang felt that the trip was worthwhile.

Silk and brocade gorgeous clothes.

The patterns are colorful and sparkling.

Whether it is Xie Qichen, the current leader of the Xie family, or her roommate Xie Xiaoniu.

What they are wearing now are similar feather crowns, jade belts, and cloud-patterned boots.

The only difference is the color of the clothes.

The further inside you stand, the darker the color.

The closer you stand to the door, the lighter the color.

As for how it was divided, Miss Jiang and the secretary didn't know.

but…

It doesn’t matter if they don’t know.

As long as someone knows it, that's enough.

"This is the clothing that the descendants of the Xie family imitated based on the status of their ancestors."

"It is to seek the blessing of this ancestor."

“This is a tradition here in Dongsui.”

"So, if you want to know how glorious the ancestors of this family were, you can guess a little by looking at the clothes their descendants imitated."

That's it.

Listening to the introduction of the fat man Zang next to me.

Miss Jiang nodded.

At this moment, the secretary next to him asked curiously in a low voice.

“Their attire…”

"Which dynasty is it from?"

...

"It should be the Song Dynasty..."

Miss Jiang carefully identified some characteristics from this model.

For example, the long-winged hat unique to the Song Dynasty...

Zang Cheng, who was standing beside him, also showed an expression of approval after hearing this.

"Yes."

"The ancestor of this branch of the Xie family was Xie Dequan, the son of Xie Wenjie, the loyal and brave Du Yuhou of the Southern Tang Dynasty and a minister of the Northern Song Dynasty."

Xie Dequan?
Miss Jiang was at a loss for a moment.

I began to search my mind for the history knowledge I learned in high school.

result…

No matter how hard she thought, she couldn't remember this person being recorded in history books.

I understood what was going on immediately.

Pursed his lips.

"How do you know so much?"

In this regard.

Boss Zang shrugged.

"It's business."

"It wouldn't be a bad thing to know more."

Hear this.

Miss Jiang couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

"If you say so."

"What about some of my information...?"

...

"Cough cough..."

"I don't know much about yours..."

"It's all hearsay..."

...

“Is that so…?”

Miss Jiang's eyes narrowed suddenly.

“What’s my favorite hairstyle?”

...

"Ai Ru...cough cough..."

"Director Jiang, I have something to tell you."

"I, I'll go first..."

immediately.

Miss Jiang watched as this fat man, who weighed at least 200 pounds, moved nimbly between several chairs.

Finally disappeared into the crowd.

See this.

She just said "Pooh".

Then he turned his head and looked at a secretary next to him who was covering her mouth.

A cold sentence.

"Smile again."

"Next month's salary will be cut in half!"

Done.

He ignored a secretary's plea for mercy.

Look forward.

Because the ritual has reached the next step.

I saw.

From the side corridor.

Suddenly, many men and women in uniform walked out in a line.

Holding delicacies, tea, wine, and various fruits and vegetables.

Served it up.

Placed on the huge incense table in front.

And at the end of the team, several shirtless men appeared.

Miss Jiang became interested instantly.

He looked over there intently.

of course.

Her eyes were not meant for men.

Instead, look at the three heads they are holding in their hands.

That is, pig's head, cow's head and sheep's head.

lifelike.

Just like being alive.

It's a bit exciting.

She smacked her lips.

Next.

The sound of gongs and drums suddenly appeared.

The whole scene suddenly became much more heated.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom."

Followed by.

Two dancing lions suddenly jumped out from the corridors on both sides.

He walked along the corridor and jumped towards the incense table in the middle.

then.

Just looking at a middle-aged man wearing yellow ancient costume.

I don't know where it rolled out from.

Holding a hydrangea-shaped object in his hand.

Guiding the movements of the two lions.

“Boom boom boom!”

“Boom boom boom!”

As the atmosphere on the scene became more and more high.

The lion dance's movements are getting bigger and bigger.

When the two lions and the hydrangea come together.

suddenly.

The door of the ancestral hall was opened.

Followed by.

The lion dancer entered the ancestral hall first, and then the two lions pushed the door open completely.

Next.

Just look at Xie Xiaoniu’s father, Xie Qichen, the manager of the Xie family.

Suddenly he stood up from his seat.

Open your arms and shout.

"Hekou Xie family!"

next second.

Many people sitting in the back also stood up at the same time.

Then he opened his arms and shouted:

“Xingxingxing!!!”

Finish shouting.

Under the leadership of Xie Qichen.

The Xie family from Hekou also followed the lion dance and walked into the ancestral hall one after another.

“Boom boom boom!”

“Boom boom boom!”

The gongs continued to beat.

Followed by.

The Xie family from Houjie and the Xie family from Qile behind also stood up almost at the same time.

After looking at each other, they walked into the ancestral hall together in silence.

After both families go in.

The other members of the Xie clan behind them shouted "Xing Xing Xing" and walked in amid the sound of gongs and drums.

It will take a while.

Most of the Xie family members present went in.

Miss Jiang, becoming curious, also wanted to follow in.

But there was no one from outside the area who moved.

She didn't feel comfortable being the first one.

no way.

I can only stay where I am.

Through the open door of the ancestral hall.

Looking at the groups of people inside, listening to Xie Qichen's words.

Facing the pile of spirit tablets not far away.

Kowtow and burn incense.

Kowtow and step back.

Finally, another group kowtowed.

The whole process takes about ten minutes.

not long time.

But Miss Jiang was quite excited to watch.

I have gained a lot of knowledge.

then.

The sacrifice is over.

Watching a group of Xie family members slowly walking out of the ancestral hall.

Miss Jiang took a sip of the tea on the table.

Prepare to retreat.

But at this moment.

She suddenly felt the phone vibrate in her pocket.

Take it out and take a look.

It’s a text message from Xie Xiaoniu.

[Jiang Ning, come out of the East Corridor, turn right and enter through the second door.]

[My dad wants to talk to you for a while...]

See this.

Miss Jiang raised her cell phone and her secretary.

Eyes curved:
"Let's go."

"It's time to talk business."

.........

five minutes later.

Miss Jiang accepted the invitation and pushed open the quaint wooden door.

next moment.

A smell of rotting wood greeted me.

This made her frown involuntarily.

but.

She just frowned.

Then he exchanged glances with the secretary.

Walked in together.

After entering the door.

Directly in front is a square patio.

Not big.

It's probably similar to the one where Miss Jiang's father lives in Haicheng.

only.

The historical atmosphere here is relatively strong.

this will.

Suddenly, a person walked out from the inside of the patio.

A middle-aged man who is not tall but thin.

With a smile on his face.

Walk towards their location.

"Director Jiang."

"Feel sorry."

“Poor hospitality.”

"Please forgive me."

That's right. This person is the current leader of the Xie family.

Xie Qichen.

I saw that the other party's attitude was very sincere and kind.

There was no such seriousness at all as when he was teaching Xie Xiaonu a lesson just now.

In this regard.

Miss Jiang licked her tongue.

He smiled and responded:
"Thank you, boss, for joking."

"You have shown me a pure ancestral temple sacrifice today."

“Very satisfied.”

Hear the words.

Xie Qichen smiled happily.

Then he made an inviting gesture.

He gestured to Miss Jiang to sit down and chat.

See this.

She doesn't mind either.

He and his secretary sat down on the stone bench next to them.

"Blue bricks and black tiles."

“Time leaves its mark.”

"Thank you, boss."

"The family history is very deep."

Listen to this.

Xie Qichen smiled.

Self-deprecatingly said:
"Boss Jiang, thank you for your compliment."

"In fact, our Xie family only has a history of one thousand years."

"Compared to those big companies domestic."

“It’s still a long way off.”

Listen to this.

Miss Jiang didn't say anything, but just smiled brightly and nodded.

See this.

How could Wang Jianguo, who was standing next to him, not know what his boss was planning?

After blinking.

He quietly took out a notebook from his pocket.

The previous record says:
[Jiang's Business Rule No. 14: The first person to speak loses half.]

and so.

In the next five minutes.

Then, a certain boss showed great interest in the history of the Xie family.

He asked several questions in a row.

Give people the feeling.

It seems like I am here to learn history.

A good while.

Finally in the eighth minute.

The other party couldn't sit still and spoke first:

"Director Jiang."

"It's true."

"I asked you to come here today to discuss some business."

...

"Ah? Business?"

When Miss Jiang heard this, she was very surprised on the spot.

"Thank you, boss."

"I own a fried chicken shop in Linjiang."

"What kind of business can I do with you, Boss Xie?"

Xie Qichen is not a fool either.

When I heard the beautiful girl in front of me say this.

He understood that the other party came prepared.

Suddenly a guess flashed through my mind.

Could this girl have been sent by some family to trick me?

But this speculation was immediately overturned.

Because he didn't think that his little daughter could do such a thing.

Think of this.

Xie Qichen exhaled softly.

"Director Jiang."

"You are a young man. I have discussed business with young people before and I know that young people are always straightforward."

"So, I won't play tricks with you."

"Just ask."

"If you'll just stand by me."

"What are the requirements?"

Direct enough.

Miss Jiang really likes this way of negotiation.

but.

This approach is generally based on the premise that both parties want to cooperate.

And now.

The status of the two sides is unequal.

and so…

"Thank you, boss."

"That's what you said."

"I'm Xie Bailu's roommate."

"Of course I'm on your side."

A language game?
How could Xie Qichen not understand the meaning of closing the shop for the festival?

'Xie Bailu's roommate'.

'you'.

The key point lies in Xie Bailu.

But this is not what he wants.

immediately.

Xie Qichen smiled.

shook his head.

"Director Jiang."

"you know what I mean."

"How about 2% of the self-purchased shipping shares?"

however.

Miss Jiang ignored the price increase.

She exclaimed in surprise:

"Wow."

"Shipping shares?"

"Thank you, boss."

"Is this share eligible for dividends?"

“How much can I get in a year?”

...

“Based on last year’s profit.”

"200."

Hear the words.

Miss Jiang rubbed her fingers.

Pursed his lips.

"200."

"It is known that the daily sales of a 'Shi Ning Ji' is about 10,000 to 20,000 yuan."

"But our profit margin is not as high as that of McDonald's."

“About 40%.”

“So, a store can make 4,000 to 8,000 yuan a day.”

“And a store like this…”

"Hey, Secretary Wang, how many stores does our 'Shi Ning Ji' have now?"

Hear this.

The girl in the hat beside him looked up in surprise.

blinked.

"total?"

"Let me think about it..."

“It seems that there are only about 500 stores.”

In an instant.

Xie Qichen's face changed.

If, at the beginning, he didn't understand what the girl in front of him was saying.

But now...

"Boss Jiang has good tactics."

“You can make millions a day selling fried chicken.”

"I admire you."

talking.

His face darkened.

"But as far as I know."

"Mr. Jiang, many of your stores are now run by dealers, right?"

The meaning is very clear.

It is impossible for the profit to reach this figure.

See this.

Miss Jiang just shrugged.

Acting as if he doesn't believe it or not.

This is the end.

There was silence at the table.

over time.

The next election meeting is about to begin.

Xie Qichen couldn't wait any longer.

Even though he knew that the girl opposite him might want more.

He could only use a not-so-good-looking expression.

He asked in a deep voice.

"Director Jiang."

"Tell me what you want."

"If I can provide it, I, Xie Qichen, will definitely give it to you."

Hear this.

Miss Jiang knew that the other party was getting a little impatient.

but.

The more this is the case.

The less you can make demands.

So, she asked calmly.

"Thank you, boss."

"There's something I want to ask."

...

"You said."

...

Obtained.

Miss Jiang stretched out her hand and tapped on the stone table.

After two seconds of silence.

Her expression suddenly became very strange.

I asked quietly.

"I heard."

"Xiejia Shipping can transport anything."

"Then I wonder if Mr. Xie could tell me."

"What do you usually put in the water tank in your boat's hold?"

In an instant.

Xie Qichen's face turned pale.

His eyes suddenly became extremely dangerous.

however.

Without waiting for him to move.

A hand rested on his shoulder.

At the same time, the three words "Don't be impulsive" flew into his ears.

Xie Qichen glanced sideways.

The girl in the hat had stood behind him at some point.

A hand pressed on his shoulder.

The other hand was holding a pen with the cap removed.

Playing with it at your fingertips.

See this.

Xie Qichen suppressed the anger in his heart.

He turned around and looked at the girl in front of him.

"Director Jiang."

"What are you..."

...

"oops."

"You are a grown man, and we are both weak women."

"Of course you have to know how to protect yourself."

talking.

The girl's eyebrows suddenly curved.

"rest assured."

"I don't care what you transport."

"I don't want your shipping shares either."

"I just want the rights of the port."

"besides…"

"The freedom of my roommate, your precious little daughter."

"how?"
