My nemesis is pregnant, the baby is mine

"Why, don't you..." The bearded man's expression became ambiguous.

"I just asked casually." Shen Mo's face was calm, but his heart was a little confused, "By the way, I heard that there was a competition in town some time ago?"

"Competition? You mean the appraisal meeting held by the Qi family?" the bearded man asked.

"I only heard that Qi's family will hold a competition for a while." Shen Mo said, it was because of this competition that Qi's family suddenly recruited people a few days ago, and the town became lively because of this reason, with a lot of people coming and going. less strangers.

"That should be it." The bearded man works in the woodyard and is also a worker of the Qi family, so he knows these things better than outsiders, "Then the appraisal meeting is held every three years by the Qi family. Selling wood..."

Every once in a while, Qi's family will produce a batch of wood, both good and bad, and the quantity is also large. In order to attract more customers to sell, Qi's family will bring out some good materials to hold an appraisal meeting at this time of year.

On the day of the appraisal meeting, the Qi family will provide a batch of materials for everyone to identify what kind of wood it is, where it was produced, how old it is, and so on.The appraisal meeting was divided into three rounds, and the final winner, as long as he could identify the town treasure given by the Qi family, he could take the wood away without paying any money.

However, not just anyone can participate in the appraisal meeting, there must be a famous post from the Qi family, and the targets of the Qi family's name posts are mostly famous people in the industry, and the things that the Qi family sells are of extraordinary quality , so every appraisal meeting is very lively, and there are many people watching the excitement.

"The Qi family is really rich and powerful. I remember that the last time the place was closed was a piece of yellow rosewood. Do you know how sensational it was at that time? The people who came to the appraisal meeting were all dumbfounded and crazy." Speaking of the past Things happened, the bearded man raised his voice a lot and became excited.

Although Shen Mo couldn't know what kind of grand occasion it was, but just from the four words of huanghuali wood, he already felt a lot of things.

Even in Shen Mo's world, huanghuali wood is extremely precious and rare. A good piece of huanghuali wood can even sell for 10,000+, but the Qi family gave it to others, which is really a statement of wealth.

"Because of the incident with the huanghuali wood last time, this appraisal meeting was also given special attention. Even many people who didn't have a name card and didn't buy wood came here just to open their eyes."

Shen Mo originally mentioned this matter only to divert the attention of the bearded man, but now he is interested.

"Is there any other way to get the famous post besides the one sent by Qi's family?" Shen Mo's thoughts turned, he needed such an opportunity now.

Considering what happened last time, the things that the Qi family brought out this time should not be ordinary products. If they can get the materials from the township and sell them, many things that troubled Shen Mo can be relieved.

Even if you can't get something by mistake, just participating, you can get a close look at some of the material craftsmen in this world, which is an eye-opener.

"Do you want to participate?" The bearded man was startled at first, but then he understood that Shen Mo's money is not rich now.

Although Shen Mo joined Qi's family to work, there are many people who admire him, but he doesn't even have a set of carpentry tools on hand.

The bearded man is a lumberjack. He can't do any carpenter's work, but he is no stranger to carpenter's work, after all, he can be regarded as half of the same industry.

It is said that the carpenter who moves needs the painter who wants to eat. As far as he knows, any carpenter who can take on the job, the job is just a set of axes, saws, planes, and chisels. It’s like moving. .

The old carpenter is even worse, he can have one or two hundred chisels alone, and they can be piled up into a hill, not counting other axes and saws.

The iron here is not too expensive, but with so many things prepared, not to mention Shen Mo, he has a headache.

"The name post does not have a fixed name, so it can be resold. The appraisal committee only recognizes the name post but not the person, but the Qi family's name posts are all well-known figures in the industry who do not lack this money, so you should not think about it." Beard persuaded.

There are not a few people who hold the idea of ​​Shen Mo, some are famous and some are rich, but the price of famous posts has often been hyped to sky-high prices over the years, even if someone sells them, ordinary people like them can't afford it at all.

After thinking about it, Shen Mo knew that there was no other way to do this, so he had to give up.

Shen Mo is not the only one who has a headache about the appraisal meeting. In the Qi family compound in the town, Qi Yunshu, the head of the Qi family, is also frowning slightly at this moment, with unresolved sadness between his brows.

The matter of the appraisal meeting was an idea that Qi Yunshu came up with, and this idea did play its due role.

Since the establishment of this appraisal meeting, the business of the Kichang has doubled every year, and the originally unknown Shen family Muchang has also expanded several times under his management, and its reputation has skyrocketed.

In the past few years, the wood in their direction has basically come from his Qi family.

With Kiba's reputation growing, there were many more problems that followed, and this appraisal meeting was a problem.

The last time Qi Yunshu used huanghuali wood as the finale, it was a sensation, but now that the appraisal meeting is approaching, Qi Yunshu has some difficulties with what to use as the finale this time.

The huanghuali wood from last time was already the best of all woods. It is not impossible for the Qi family to produce something even better, but it is not worth it.After all, he is in business, and his natural interests come first, so there is no reason to focus more on blogging than less.

"Master." The butler came in with a bowl of soup that clears away heat and dispels fire.

The housekeeper is a twin. He has been working in the Qi family since he was a child. At first, he followed Qi Yunshu's mother and father. After Qi Yunshu was born, he followed Qi Yunshu to take care of him.

He watched Qi Yunshu grow up, and the two of them were already a little more intimate than outsiders.Especially after Qi Yunshu's father and mother passed away one after another, the two became even closer, and he still called Qi Yunshu the young master in private.

"What's the matter?" Qi Yunshu gently pinched the bridge of her nose with her long, fair fingers.

The butler himself took out something and handed it to Qi Yunshu, "The old slave just went to the nearby workshop to inquire about the preparations for the appraisal meeting, and found this by accident, and brought it here for you to see, young master."

What the housekeeper brought over was a general case that had not yet been polished and painted. It was imitated by Mr. Hong in the workshop according to the general case given to him by Shen Mo before.

Although the things have not been finely polished, they have begun to take shape, and the subtleties can be seen.

Qi Yunshu is the head of the Qi family, so he is naturally no stranger to carpentry. After playing with it for a while, he realized that the thing in his hand that could be broken apart and assembled into a small table was actually something that didn't have a single nail to stick it together.

The thing was not big at first, it was only a long and rectangular piece of wood the size of an inkstone when it was closed, but when it was unfolded, it transformed into a shrunken small table.

The idea of ​​this thing is extremely ingenious, every part of the cutting is just right, even the pattern carvings during the period have been calculated to fit incomparably, the whole structure is incomparably exquisite and quite interesting.

Seeing the surprise in Qi Yunshu's eyes, the housekeeper explained, "This is what the son of the Shen family used to apply for the job."

"It's really wonderful." Qi Yunshu didn't hesitate to praise it, and looked at it differently.

Seeing that thing, he understood why the old carpenters of Qi's family agreed so readily to let outsiders work in Qi's house this time. You must know that those people's eyes were notoriously tricky, so he didn't hold out hope.

The Qi family is not only famous for the wood farm, the business of the wood farm slowly developed after Qi Yunshu took over the Qi family. Before that, the Qi family was originally a carpenter, and they had many workshops under their hands. It's all involved, it's old word of mouth.

In addition to the ability of the Qi family to support these, there is also the craftsmanship of the craftsmen of the various workshops.These people have been in the industry for many years with superb skills, and naturally have high vision, and ordinary people don't look down on them at all.

Before the recruitment notice was sent out, Qi Yunshu had already given up hope and just wanted to give it a try, so he was surprised that the few people who had been told by the housekeeper to let go so easily.

"He came to work today?" Qi Yunshu put down the general case.

"Yes."

"how?"

"I heard from Mr. Hong that the craftsmanship is really good." The housekeeper conveyed the original words.

Mr. Hong works in the workshop next to their yard, and he has a lot of contact with the wood farm and the Qi's compound on weekdays, so they all know their temperament.

Being able to say something from his mouth that is okay and let him agree with it already means that it is very good, at least it suits his appetite.

Qi Yunshu took the soup on the side, and the white porcelain spoon slid on the surface of the water, scooped up half a spoonful and handed it to his mouth.The spoon was white in color, and when Qi Yunshu's red lips gently sucked it, it immediately lost its luster and dimmed.

The butler looked away, Qi Yunshu had become more and more beautiful in the past two years, even the butler who had watched him grow up couldn't help but blush a little.

"By the way, young master, did something happen to you last night? I saw you and didn't come back until the morning." The housekeeper was a little worried.

Qi Yunshu didn't return all night last night, and came back from the back door in a mess until dawn in the morning, which frightened him.

Now that both of Qi Yunshu's parents are gone, he hid the identities of his two sons and took over the Qi family business. He has been struggling alone for so many years, which already made him feel very distressed. If something happened again, what face would he have to see him? Mother and father?

Hearing this, Qi Yunshu paused imperceptibly, and his face turned pale in an instant.At that moment, he only felt that a certain spot that he had been trying to ignore since the morning began to burn again.

The place that has never been used has been treated roughly overnight, and it is already red and swollen, and there are even bursts of tearing pain faintly.Just sitting here is like sitting on pins and needles, constantly reminding him of the absurdity of last night.

Every time he felt that feeling, Qi Yunshu's pretty face would turn pale and blue for a while, followed by endless embarrassment and annoyance.

He still remembers what happened last night, every breath, every touch, every suffocating kiss of that person in the dark, and even the more embarrassing thing, he can remember it clearly, and he can't forget it even if he wants to.

What made Qi Yunshu even more devastated was that what happened last night could be said to have been provoked by himself. If he hadn't hugged someone in the dark and was so unrestrained in seducing and courting him, maybe nothing would have happened.

"Master?"

"I drank a little too much last night, so I stayed in the town to rest all night. It's fine here, so go get busy." Qi Yunshu pretended to be calm.

When the butler left, Qi Yunshu's cold and handsome face showed a bit of panic, this matter must not be discovered.

If this matter gets out, and if his twin's identities are found out, I'm afraid that many men will try their best to drag him down from the position of the Patriarch of the Qi family, and then oppress him and humiliate him to make his life worse than death. Can only please people like a dog.

Just because the fate of the twins is lower than grass, he has to succumb to others, and he will not even be allowed to resist.

Thinking of this, Qi Yunshu's eyes became a little more cold and cruel, if that was the case, then he might as well be dead!
