Traveling through the Republic of China, a delicate girl opened a factory to make money and won a lo

Bai Yang was stunned. This was the first time that Mr. Ning was used as a shield. He did not seem unhappy and seemed to be smiling.

A rare and pleasant expression, really strange,

He admired Tang Baozhu's sharp tongue.

Tang Baozhu did not intend to leave, but moved to Ning Jinchuan's side and rolled up her sleeves.

"Mr. Ning, to repay your kindness, let me make tea for you. Let me show you my cooking skills."

Bai Yang was still shocked by Tang Baozhu's boldness.

Ning Jinchuan had already raised his eyebrows and looked at her, saying with interest,

"Miss Tang Er also knows how to make tea?"

"That's natural. Good tea must be paired with good tea-brewing techniques to achieve the effect of tea tasting."

Tang Baozhu took the elective course of tea art in college. Besides making coffee and wine, her favorite thing was to make tea. It is said that one should not be impatient when making tea, as it can help to smooth out one's impetuous temper.

"Mr. Ning, although Tianmu Qingding is not an expensive tea, it tastes fresh and refreshing with a long-lasting fragrance when brewed properly,"

Ning Jinchuan looked at the tea on the table. It was bought in a hurry by Bai Yang. It was indeed not as good as the tea in Shanghai and was hard to swallow. Tang Baozhu's words aroused his interest.

"Second Miss Tang, can you make a flower out of the bitter green top?"

Tang Baozhu smiled.

"Let me try."

After washing her hands by the well, Tang Baozhu half-knelt on the coffee table and began to make tea.

She picked up the ceramic tea can, pinched the wooden spoon with her white fingers, put the tea leaves on the covered bowl, and poured boiling spring water over it. Steam instantly rose up with the fragrance of tea.

Looks like a decent

She brewed the tea repeatedly with boiling water, steeping it seven times, and then she gently picked up the celadon tea bowl, held it in her palm, and slowly opened the lid.

When the tender tea leaves meet the air, they slowly sink to the bottom of the cup. The tea leaves curl up slightly, like dark green pearls. The fragrance of tea instantly fills the air and fills your nose.

"Mr. Ning, please try it,"

Ning Jinchuan's eyes were deep. For the first time, he discovered that watching people make tea was actually a kind of enjoyment. Even Bai Yang was watching intently.

Ning Jinchuan took the teacup, lifted it up, and gently tasted the tea. It was sweet and mellow. Although it had a bitter taste, it was not astringent and even had a sweet aftertaste.

He put down his teacup and nodded.

"The craftsmanship is good."

Tang Baozhu smiled when she received the compliment.

"I'm not good at learning, so I'm embarrassed."

"Indeed, my technique was a little unfamiliar, the weight of the tea leaves was too heavy, and the spring water was too boiling, which scalded the tea leaves."

"..."

The corner of Tang Baozhu's mouth twitched. This person is really a jerk. Can't you see that she is being falsely modest?

Tang Baozhu was not giving up and was thinking about whether she should make another cup to delay time. Then Fu Meng came in with Qin Ruorong.

"Mr. Ning, Miss Tang's friend is here."

As soon as the voice fell, Qin Ruorong followed Fu Meng in. She looked anxious, her hair was a little messy, and there was sweat on her forehead. After seeing Tang Baozhu, she didn't have time to greet Mr. Ning, and shouted directly,

"Baozhu, it's bad, something big has happened."

Tang Baozhu was stunned. She had previously asked Qin Ruorong to find Tang Baojun and Zhou Yixin. Seeing Qin Ruorong so anxious, she wondered if Tang Baojun had really beaten Zhou Yixin to death?

She stood up quickly, and in her panic she realized that Ning Jinchuan had been staring at her.

She apologized in a low voice.

"Excuse me, it's urgent. I need to talk to my friend."

Ning Jinchuan nodded, didn't bother with the reckless girl, continued to hold the teacup, slowly opened the lid and sipped the tea.

Tang Baozhu took Qin Ruorong a little further away.

"what happened?"

Qin Ruorong steadied his breathing and whispered,

"I followed your instructions and went to the reed marsh. At that time, Zhou Yixin and Lin Ruoshui were kissing each other in the reed marsh. Tang Baojun saw them and beat them up. I also followed your instructions and called a lot of people to come and stop the fight. Soon the three of them were arrested and taken to the police station."

Tang Baozhu nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. This was exactly what she wanted.

"Zhou Yixin was caught red-handed. Is he going to call off the engagement? Why did something so serious happen?"

"Originally, things were going very smoothly. Almost everyone in Suhe Town knew that Zhou Yixin and Miss Lin were having an affair, and they were pointing fingers at the two of them. Zhou Yixin also threw in the towel and threatened to cancel the engagement. But suddenly, a man named Zuo Erye appeared. He seemed to be a merchant from Beijing or Shanghai. He was quite prestigious, and the director of the police station respected him very much. He said a few words, and now Zhou Yixin didn't mention breaking off the engagement at all, and he wanted to sue Tang Baojun for assault."

"Second Master Zuo?"

"Yes, it seems to be a Chinese person with Japanese nationality, very rich, who donated some money to the police station, and the people inside are fawning over him."

Tang Baozhu was stunned. As expected, her guess was correct. That Mr. Zuo Er should be Niijima Zuo Er of the Sakuragi Chamber of Commerce, a Chinese with Japanese citizenship, a spy sent by the Japanese invaders. He was the man behind Song Shaoguang and the driving force behind the destruction of the Tang family.

The biggest villain in the original novel is someone who wants to disrupt Shanghai's economy in order to disintegrate the city and successfully occupy it.

Tang Baozhu frowned and recalled the original work.

At that time, Song Shaoguang had secured a large order. Xindao Zuoer proposed to order 100,000 rolls of silk from the Tang family and signed a contract.

It was a big business, and the Tang family and even the entire Suhe Town were excited. The Tang family rushed to work, spent a lot of money to hire employees, purchase silk cocoons, dry, reel, weave, and dye. People from the entire town came to help. In four months, including the original inventory of silk, they collected 100,000 rolls of silk.

During the delivery period, Niijima Zuoji kept citing contract reasons and delayed the payment of the balance.

Unable to get the final payment, they had no way to pay the silkworm farmers, the workers' wages, and the factory expenses. They also owed the merchant bank a large loan, and had an inventory backlog of 100,000 rolls of silk. The interest on the debt kept growing, so the Tang family had no choice but to beg Niijima Zuoji again and again.

Niijima Sakuji kept lowering the price. Factory workers went on strike, businesses were forcing repayment of loans, silkworm farmers were blocking the doorsteps of their homes every day, and the police station was full of Niijima Sakuji's people. There was no way to appeal, and the Tang family had no choice but to sell the inventory to Niijima Sakuji at half price.

The Tang family suffered a loss, and they returned the money they lost to the business, paid the wages and the purchase price of the silkworm farmers, and even mortgaged their house.

However, on the eve of delivery, the warehouse caught fire and 100,000 pieces of silk were burned to ashes. The Tang family had taken the balance from Niijima Zuoji and were unable to deliver the goods on time, so Niijima Zuoji became the Tang family's biggest creditor.

The Tang family was destroyed and its people were gone. Niijima Zuoji and Song Shaoguang colluded and were the masterminds behind all this.

Now it seems that Zhou Yixin is indeed theirs, otherwise, with Zhou Yixin's impatient character, it would be impossible for him to change his mind and not cancel the engagement after getting close to the Ning family.

It was not so easy to break off the engagement. She lowered her eyes and glanced at Ning Jinchuan who was drinking tea.

The Sakuragi Chamber of Commerce has suffered a lot from Ning Jinchuan, and the only one who can suppress the Sakuragi Chamber of Commerce is Ning Jinchuan. Now she must turn the fire to Ning Jinchuan.

For now, we can only take a gamble. If it is confirmed that the Tang family and the Ning family are doing business, Xindao Zuoer will definitely be afraid and dare not set a trap easily.

She comforted Qin Ruorong,

"Don't worry, the marriage has been cancelled. Now make preparations. Go find Song Xiaohua. If Zhou Yixin refuses to cancel the marriage, the worst-case scenario is to let Song Xiaohua testify against Zhou Yixin."

"Okay, that's the only way, but will Song Xiaohua testify?"

"Yes, Song Xiaohua must have hated Zhou Yixin for saying such cruel things."

"Well, this is the only way."
