Time Travel: Female Cannon Fodder of the Republic of China

Xiao Guan nodded, "Okay, Chairman, you go ahead and do your work first."

Half an hour later, Ai Shutong changed into a dress, put on makeup, and walked down from the second floor.

Xiao Guan, who was eating snacks in Room 101 with the door open, saw this through the door and quickly stood up and walked into the hall.

"Chairman, are you leaving?"

Ai Shutong waved the pearl clutch in her hand and said, "Let's go!"

The two arrived at the Wu Mansion around seven o'clock.

At this time, the door of the Wu Mansion was wide open. Two waiters in tuxedos were standing at the door, but there was no sign of Wu Shixiong and Lin Manru.

Ai Shutong, wearing red high heels, walked in holding Xiao Guan's arm.

As soon as he entered, Xiao Guan was stunned by the magnificent hall. Ai Shutong pinched his arm calmly, and he came to his senses and continued walking forward.

This was Xiao Guan's first time attending a ball hosted by wealthy people. While his spirit was under great shock, he had to pay attention to maintaining his facial expression, which made him feel painful and at the same time, a sense of vanity arose from the bottom of his heart.

He was not paying attention and didn't hear Ai Shutong calling him.

"Xiao Guan! Xiao Guan?" Ai Shutong called out a few times.

Xiao Guan finally responded, "Yes, yes."

Ai Shutong introduced him, "This is Lin Manru, the deputy manager of our flour mill and the owner of Wu Mansion. Follow her tonight and get to know more people."

Xiao Guan looked up and saw a modern girl with charming big eyes looking at him curiously.

This made his brain dizzy for a moment. He forced himself to put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, smiled with eight teeth, and extended his hand. "Hello, Manager Lin, I am Xiao Guan, the salesperson of Shenhua Flour Mill."

Lin Manru looked at the young man in front of her with great interest. He was obviously very nervous, but he was forcing himself to remain calm.

"I won't eat people, why are you so nervous?" Li Manru asked with her red lips slightly opened.

Xiao Guan, who was always smart and smooth, had a blank mind and didn't know how to answer. Sweat broke out on his forehead.

Ai Shutong thought that he looked fine at the flour mill, but she didn't expect him to be so useless here. She was the one who brought these people, so she has to be responsible!

"Manru, stop teasing him. He has never seen the world and is dazzled by the wealth of your family. His mind is confused!"

"Take care of him more often and let him see more. He will get better in the future."

Lin Manru glanced at Ai Shutong and said, "Oh! You're already protecting me before I even say anything?"

"What's your relationship? You're not in love with each other!"

Ai Shutong glared at her angrily, "Don't make such jokes with an unmarried woman like me. It's easy to be misunderstood and have a bad influence."

Lin Manru felt uncomfortable when she met Ai Shutong unless she was scolded by him.

Now that she was told this, she actually laughed, "Okay, okay, don't be angry, Miss, I will obey your orders."

Ai Shutong put on a ferocious expression and said, "Go to work!"

Lin Manru hid the smile on her lips with a handkerchief and said, "I'll go right away, no hurry!"

After Lin Manru took Xiao Guan away, Ai Shutong came to the dining table quietly.

Now she had long forgotten what she had said to Xiao Guan in the evening, that the snacks at the party were just for decoration.

She hid behind a pot of crabapple flowers and ate snacks one after another.

She was eating happily when someone suddenly patted her shoulder. She was so scared that she shivered and the small round cake she had just taken a bite of fell to the ground.

Turning around, he saw that it was Shen Jiaxing and rolled his eyes at him, "You scared me to death."

After saying that, he started to burp.

Shen Jiaxing quickly brought her a glass of juice and said, "Hurry up, it will help your intestines."

Ai Shutong took it and drank it all, but she still hiccuped. She asked angrily, "Why are you here?"

Shen Jiaxing: "You forgot that we run a bank. If Director Wu of the Finance Bureau holds a dance party, he will naturally send me an invitation."

Ai Shutong: "I haven't seen you here before!"

Shen Jiaxing: "I did postpone it many times. I was afraid that if I didn't come again, I would offend people. I have to deal with it once or twice out of ten times."

Ai Shutong: "Hey! If you don't want to come, tell me!"

"After all, I am also the director of the Women's Savings Department of the bank. My position is not low, so I can also represent the bank."

Shen Jiaxing: "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. I'm not afraid of making things difficult for you!"

Ai Shutong: "Oh! When you blocked my order, I didn't see you worrying about making things difficult for me!"

Shen Jiaxing touched his nose awkwardly, "You've taken out a lot of loans recently. This bank is not only owned by the two of us, but there are other directors watching over it! This is too much, it's unacceptable."

Ai Shutong: "What are you afraid of? I invested 20 yuan at the time. If I really can't pay it back, I can just use my shares to pay it back."

Shen Jiaxing disagreed, "You took out a loan to open a factory just to make money. If you lose all your capital in the end, then why bother?"

"It's better to just go to school!"

Seeing that his professorial nature was acting up and he was about to start lecturing, Ai Shutong quickly changed the subject.

"When you have time, please review the information I submitted. The Nichang clothing store is very profitable, and the prospects for the branch store are not bad."

"I have already chosen the address for the branch. Don't delay me too long. I want to open the branch before the New Year!"

Shen Jiaxing: "Okay, I won't keep you for too long. But as the head of the Women's Savings Department, shouldn't you be more diligent in your work?"

"If you increase your deposit business, I can approve your loan, right?"

Ai Shutong nodded helplessly, "Okay! I'll try."

Shen Jiaxing retorted: "It's not about trying, it's about trying your best! I think today's dance party is a good platform for developing customers. You should eat less and make more connections with people."

Ai Shutong: “…”

Retribution! What a retribution! She had just forced Lin Manru and Xiao Guan to develop clients as a boss.

Soon after, she was caught by her boss and asked to expand the business!

Next time you go out to attend a banquet, be sure to check the almanac to avoid the same mistake as last week.

Ai Shutong was busy and active, greeting people with a smile, while secretly sighing that she had a miserable life and was born to work hard!

When I woke up the next day, I had a slight headache due to a hangover.

She endured the discomfort, finished her breakfast, and rushed to school.

As Ai Shutong was busy, time passed quickly and it was summer 1921 in a blink of an eye.

On June 6, Ai Shutong held her graduation ceremony.

In the past two years, the Fengtian and Zhili cliques first defeated the Anhui clique, and then the Fengtian and Zhili cliques fought for power in Beijing.

The city of Beijing was in a turbulent time. Li Maili reduced many of the capital's industries and turned to invest in the entertainment industry and real estate in Shanghai.

So he spent most of this year in Shanghai.

Today is Ai Shutong's graduation ceremony. Li Maili and Ina came to St. John's together.

Ai Shutong's business has been growing bigger and bigger in the past two years. She is very famous in school and her grades are also among the best. Today, she was chosen as a representative of the graduates and gave a speech on stage.
