Chapter 97 A familiar figure
After lunch break, the two set out to shop again.
"Lin Jiao, the fabrics in this store are too expensive. How about we go to other stores and have a look?"
Du Mingrui looked at the cloth in Lin Jiaojiao's hand and whispered in her ear. The clerk who was holding the goods next to her saw it and spoke quickly.
"Girl, it's a bit more expensive than other places, but the quality of the fabric is really good. It's very popular in Fanwai. If you don't believe me, you can go to other stores to have a look. Ours is still relatively cheap."
Du Mingrui looked unconvinced. These could only fool newbies. Old hands like her wouldn't fall for them.
"Come on, let's go to another store."
Lin Jiaojiao had no choice but to give up. She put down the cloth in her hand, smiled apologetically at the waiter, and followed Du Mingrui out.
The guy didn't care. He put away the fabrics they were looking at and went to entertain other customers.
This time I went out, I visited seven or eight cloth shops. Each one was more expensive than the last. In the end, I found that the first one I visited had the best value for money.
The two of them went back, but Du Mingrui didn't go in. "Lin Jiao, you go in and buy it first. I'll wait for you outside."
"Row."
Although Lin Jiaojiao also felt a little embarrassed, but after these few months of experience, her thickness is no longer the same as before, it can only be said that it has become much thicker.
She had just walked into the cloth shop when the clerk who had been there just saw off a customer. Upon seeing her come in, he hurriedly greeted her with a smile.
"Is it better for girls to stay in our house? Do you need me to help you wrap up all those fabrics you were looking at earlier?"
"Okay, please."
After a while, the guy packed all the cloth and put it in her bamboo basket. Looking at the full basket, she suddenly felt that it was enough and there was no need to buy anything else.
After paying, he came to Du Mingrui with a basket full of cloth on his back and said, "Go back. This basket is enough for me."
Du Mingrui circled around her and said, "Tsk tsk, you are worthy of being Boss Lin. You bought everything right away. Only Du must be exhausted carrying so many boxes all the way here."
"Stop teasing me. Didn't I help you move those boxes? I was the one who was tired."
"Hahaha, thank you so much, Sister Lin. If I wasn't going to have a farewell party tonight, I would definitely treat Sister Lin to a seafood feast from Zhouzhou."
Lin Jiaojiao slapped her hand away and said, "Alright, stop making empty promises. Let's go."
The two men passed by the port, where a ship had already weighed anchor. They looked at the people on the deck waving goodbye to the people on the shore, and they stopped unconsciously.
"Do you think the ship we'll be on tomorrow will be bigger than this one?"
Lin Jiaojiao was speechless when she heard this. "Sister, I've never been on one before. After all, you've been to sea a few times."
"Hey, I've always gone to places that are close before, this is the first time I'm going to go somewhere far away."
Lin Jiaojiao also fell silent. She knew what she was worried about. Going out to sea was a life-threatening experience, but there were still many people who could not resist the temptation of profit and tried to make a fortune with a small investment.
Fu Ling arranged the ship cabins for her and Du Mingrui, but they only rented small cabins.
When she met up with Fu Ling last night, Fu Ling had already expressed her lofty ambitions, saying that if she succeeded this time, she would set up a shipping company and transport goods by boat. She was sweating profusely just hearing that.
As she watched the ship go away, many people on the deck dispersed, but she saw a familiar figure. Her heart tightened and she ran over quickly.
"Lin Jiao, why are you running!"
But as if she was dazzled, there was no figure on the deck. She stopped and gasped, standing on the shore looking at the ship getting farther and farther away.
Du Mingrui also chased after him, propped up his knees and panting, "Lin Jiao, did you see someone you know? You're running so fast."
She shook her head, her voice sounding a little sad.
"That person will never appear again."
The two returned to the inn.
Lin Jiaojiao put down her things and packed up briefly, then knocked on the door of the next room. Du Mingrui would be away for a while, so she had to go downstairs to the lobby to wait for her.
When she was going downstairs, she bumped into a man in gray clothes and a black veiled hat who was walking up quickly. She had to stop and stand aside to let him pass first.
But the man in gray was obviously startled, then he lowered his head and walked quickly upwards. At this moment, she saw a purse fall from his body, but no one noticed it and he kept walking upwards with his head down.
She quickly called out, "Hey, you dropped something."
But he seemed not to have heard anything, so she had to quickly pick up the purse and chase after him.
Fu Qi didn't expect to meet her suddenly like this. He was delighted, but then he thought of what he was wearing and quickly lowered his head and left. His heart beat faster when he passed by her. She seemed to have spoken, but she definitely didn't say anything to him.
Finally reaching the platform, he calmed himself down and turned around, wanting to see her leaving, but found her walking towards him. His heart, which had just calmed down, became extremely tense again.
He had gotten used to watching her from behind in a corner, but he never expected that one day she would walk towards him head on.
"You dropped something. Is this yours?"
He then realized that what she was holding in her hand was his purse, and her fair face under the black veil had already turned red.
"Yes…"
"That's good. Here you go. Keep this thing safe. You can't find it if you lose it."
He looked at the bony hand that was handed to him, and slowly stretched out his fair and slender hand to take the purse from her hand.
"Thank you girl."
"It's okay, just be more careful next time."
After she said that, she turned and left. If she stayed any longer, she would feel inferior. She thought her hands were not that dark, but when compared with the man just now, her hands looked shiny black.
After waiting for a while, Du Mingrui also came downstairs, and the two went to Longzhou Restaurant together.
When they got there, they found there were a lot of people. She thought it was just them and Fu Ling. When Fu Ling saw them coming, she hurried forward and pulled them to sit in the seat she had reserved in advance.
"You're finally here. Everything is ready. Do you need anything else? I'll ask someone to rush it for you."
They sat down and refused. The things that needed to be prepared were already prepared, and the things they wanted to exchange and sell were also ready.
"Master Fu, why are there so many people?"
Fu Ling looked at the people around him and said, "These are all Yuanfan's people and partners. Yuanfan will set sail tomorrow, so this is a farewell banquet."
She suddenly felt a little uneasy, as if it was the last supper.
Then she looked at the dishes on the table and swallowed. She hadn't eaten seafood for a long time.
Mainly seafood, these are extremely delicious just by steaming them with a little soy sauce. She simply loosened her belt, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating.
Fu Ling and Du Yuerui watched silently from the side. It felt like Lin Jiaojiao was having her last meal.
