Now was not the time for self-examination. Su Nuo patted Chen Guodong on the shoulder and asked him to make a phone call.
Sunuo did not guarantee that he would be able to go back during the New Year. It is estimated that Chen Guodong will not be able to truly feel at ease until they get on the return train.
Because of this incident, the three of them were not in a good mood. They didn't eat lunch and all lay in bed and fell asleep.
It was already two-thirty in the afternoon when Suno got up again. She thought for a while, then got up and went to the teahouse.
She had already greeted Yang Qiuping before and said it was the last performance of the day. After the performance, you have to return the rented sanxian.
But Su Nuo didn't expect that when she came to the teahouse with Sanxian in her arms, the door would be closed.
There was a small notice written on red paper on the door, saying that it was a holiday during the Spring Festival. Moreover, the holiday writing was extremely long, and it actually didn’t open until after the 15th.
Sunuo frowned, feeling that things were strange. She was fine when she came yesterday, and no one said she wanted to take an early leave.
However, Su Nuo's wages in the teahouse were settled on a daily basis, so there was no talk of arrears of wages. It's just a trip today for nothing.
Sunuo turned around to leave, but suddenly remembered something and looked back upstairs.
The windows of the tea room upstairs belonging to Yang Qiuping were also closed, but Su Nuo always felt that there seemed to be someone in the room.
After thinking about it, Su Nuo found a public phone booth after leaving here and dialed the number of Yang Qiuping's tea room.
The phone rang several times but no one answered it. Just when Su Nuo thought there was no one in the tea room and was about to put down the phone, there was a "click" from the other side, and then Yang Qiuping's faint voice: "Hello? Su Nuo?"
"It's me, Boss Yang." Su Nuo confirmed his thoughts. Yang Qiuping was watching him from the second floor just now.
But she didn't say anything, but said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Boss Yang, I have something to do today and can't go. I'm asking for leave from you and wishing you a happy birthday."
"Okay, thank you." Yang Qiuping's tone was as polite as ever, but it seemed a little less gentle.
Both parties were quiet for a moment, and Su Nuo asked again: "The Pu'er tea I bought from Boss Yang before..."
"Okay." Yang Qiuping agreed calmly: "Business still needs to be done. You pay, I ship the goods, fair trade."
Yang Qiuping said the words "fair trade" heavily, and Su Nuo understood that she was deliberately drawing a clear line.
Su Nuo just said "thank you" again and hung up the phone.
It seems that Han Gong is very powerful, and even Yang Qiuping has been affected here.
But it's right to think about it. Yang Qiuping is a woman and is in the serious tea business. Naturally, she doesn't want to offend a big boss like Han Gong.
Sunuo left here, returned the Sanxian, and got the deposit back.
Before she left, the owner of the musical instrument suddenly asked her: "Are my strings good to use? In fact, they are not expensive. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Can I make them cheaper for you?"
Su Nuo hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "Thank you, boss, no need. My master left me a string, and I will learn from him."
After saying that, Suno left here.
Sunuo now understood that her idea was a bit naive. In Yang Qiuping's eyes, she just knows more musical instruments than the teahouse girl and knows one more boss from Beihua.
Apart from singing and selling tea in the teahouse, she has no special meaning to the teahouse or to Boss Yang.
Business is business, and friendship is friendship, but these are nothing compared to strength, and compared to big guys like Han Gong.
