It is not suitable to talk about business immediately after a meal. For more formal business activities, a rest time of about one to two hours is often arranged after the meal so that both parties can fully relax and rest.
Using a scientific method to explain this behavior is because people have just eaten, and a large amount of blood in the body is concentrated in the stomach and intestines to promote digestion and absorption, so the blood flow in other places will be reduced, thereby reducing the oxygen content of brain cells. Descending, thinking can sometimes get stuck. Only after the early stage of digestion is over, the blood flow returns to normal, and a large amount of oxygen-filled blood rolls through the brain again. The activity of brain cells with increased oxygen content is liberated, allowing faster thinking and faster response.
As for the less scientific saying, people eat a lot of food, and the food ruins their own lives. Young evil spirits will hang around the diners and cause them trouble. Only by praying or waiting for these little evil spirits to disappear naturally will you not be affected by these unclean things.
But no matter what the reason is, people need to take a break after eating.
Anpu was sitting in the living room, lying on the sofa. He closed his eyes and opened his mouth slightly. If you got closer, you could still hear his snoring. He was very tired during this period, and any fragment of time was a good opportunity for him to rest. Taking advantage of Mr. Tucker's free time when he entered the bedroom to rest, he also leaned on the sofa and squinted for a while. As the clock hand pointed to nine o'clock, the dangdangdang bells began to echo in the room.
An Pu raised his arm in confusion and wiped the dry and crusty saliva on his mouth. He would drool when sleeping, just like a child. Rubbing his eyes, a trace of irritability flashed across his face. He raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, stood up on the armrest, and staggered to the bathroom. A simple grooming and the stimulation of cold water made him look much better when he came out. Mr. Tuckers had already packed himself up and sat on the side of the sofa. The two of them nodded and said hello.
After they came back from the restaurant, Mr. Tuckers called the accountant. The accountant said he would be rescued soon. It had been more than forty minutes now, so he should have appeared, right
The accountant is a very important person. According to the current requirements of the imperial accounting industry, any company that meets the tax standards must hire relevant personnel who have accounting qualification certificates and have been registered with the Imperial Taxation Bureau as the company's accountant. At the same time, the account books drawn up during the period of employment are also kept by the accountant. When necessary, the tax bureau can directly contact the accountant for reconciliation and audit, skipping the business link directly.
In other words, this accountant must have the account books from when the jewelry store first started operating. At that time, except for the little money on hand, Dulin did not have any more funds to support a large-scale jewelry store. . He must have used the stolen gold. As long as the accountant did not make false accounts, he could find from the account books that there would be some minor problems with the jewelry store's early investment, such as Du Lin's lack of funds to purchase goods.
The mine owners in the west are a group of people who will never ship goods without seeing cash, especially precious metals. There are too many scammers these days. Before the money is put into their pockets, any credibility is a lie. And this will definitely be reflected in the ledger. Even if Dulin finds a suitable excuse, it cannot change the fact that there is a certain gap between his dividends and the amount of goods he purchases. As long as we can lock this in and then go find the gold provider to reconcile the account, Dulin's doubts will be locked in.
When Alyssa and others confess to Du Lin, Du Lin will be locked up.
Just when Anpu was about to ask Mr. Tuckers whether the accountant and the lady had been delayed on the road, a group of cooks in the Dingo Hotel not far away inexplicably followed their boss's instructions and prepared ten banquets for hundreds of people in plain clothes. The Guarts walked into the banquet hall. They kept thanking the branch president here for Mr. Dulin's generosity, and thanked Mr. Dulin for not forgetting them when he was far in the west and inviting them to a sumptuous meal.
Of course, this has nothing to do with the other side. Ms. Sophia did not appear because she had already appeared in the hotel on the other side.
When the elevator door opened, the two detectives were stunned for a moment. A very graceful and elegant lady appeared in the elevator. She was wearing a black evening gown and raised her chin slightly, giving people a very noble feeling. Behind her stood six other young men in formal attire. Their crisp clothes and good materials showed that they were the lady's entourage.
Seeing this lady who must be of high status step out of the elevator door, an agent immediately smiled and blocked the lady's exit, "I'm very sorry, dear lady, this floor has been taken down. This is a private space. If you need anything, I can help you convey it to the front desk." The landline phone is in the corridor behind him, and you can contact the front desk anytime and anywhere.
The distinguished lady smiled. The moment the detective lowered his head, two pistols stretched out from behind the lady, pointing at the two detectives respectively. The two of them were a little stunned by this sudden turn of events. The distinguished lady continued to walk forward, gently pressing her hand on the agent's shoulder, smiling at him sideways, "My child, you came to the wrong place. It’s not me, it’s you!” After saying that, she pushed the detective gently, maybe he got out of the way on his own initiative.
The two agents were disarmed, tied up, and stuffed with cloth to stop them from shouting, and an attendant placed a trash can between the elevator doors. When the continuously closing elevator door clamped the trash can, it separated again.
There are a total of ten elevators in the hotel, and the four public elevators can only reach the tenth floor. Guests living on the 11th to 16th floors need to transfer to another independent elevator on the 10th floor to go to their own floor. There is this trash can between the elevator doors. No matter what happens here, no one will come up to interfere with what is happening here.
According to the content of his communication with Line 2, Sophia came outside the third suite on the fourteenth floor. Behind him, a slightly older young man who looked to be in his thirties knocked on the door and asked Ms. Sophia to She stood there like a noble lady.
"She must be here, I'll open the door for her." A man's voice came from the room, and then after a few footsteps, the door opened. The person who opened the door looked at Ms. Sophia, and Ms. Sophia smiled. He smiled and walked right in.
The moment An Pu stood up, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. An accountant couldn't possibly have such a temperament, right? Even if there were, why would you want to be an accountant? When he just stretched out his hand, a gun appeared behind the lady, and the muzzle was pointed at Anpu. Anpu kept his hand stretched out in confusion, and the expression on his face gradually changed.
"Who are you? We don't know you." He looked at these people and glanced at Tuckers who was standing in the door with a gun pointed at him. "This behavior of yours is very rude. I got the wrong guy."
Sofia walked to the other side of the coffee table with a smile. She sat down gracefully and shook her head slightly. At this moment, she actually gave Anpu a dazzling feeling, as if a very high-status noble lady was sitting opposite her.
"I'm not looking for the wrong person, Mr. Lapuan." Sofia's voice was a little hoarse, but it didn't make people feel that it was very grainy. On the contrary, because of this hoarseness, it gave people a mellow and charming feeling. "My name is Sofia, you must be curious why I appear here, actually I was cooking for my family in the evening, but I received a call and he asked to see you by name, so I had to take off my apron temporarily , come here to help him realize his wish.”
"Ah, by the way, his name is Dulin, you can call him Mr. Dulin!"
Anpu had a headache when he heard the name Du Lin. Du Lin actually wanted to see him. Who knows how he was exposed? Maybe... not exposed? Otherwise, Du Lin would definitely not treat him like this. He might give this woman an order to kill him directly. So he looked at Tuckers, "Friend, you are being followed, and they are following the wrong person."
Tuckers didn't speak and looked very silent. Anpu moved his gaze back and looked directly at Sophia, "Ms. Sophia, what if I don't cooperate?"
Sophia laughed softly. The laughter was very pleasant, as if she was gently scratching the tip of her heart with a feather. She must have been a heartthrob when she was young!
"If you don't cooperate, Mr. Dulin will have to appear at your funeral with great regret, and maybe he won't even be able to make it to the funeral! But it doesn't matter, we will find your family, and they may have something to say. Tell Mr. Dulin, for example, who you are, what you want to do, and who you work for." The person Sofia brought made her a cup of coffee. She turned her head and said thank you, and then blew the coffee a few times. , took a sip, "I have seen many young people like you. They always feel regret when the end they cannot bear comes. Are you also such a person?"
Anpu's expression turned even worse, and he forced out a smile, "I'm not guilty, Mr. Dulin. I don't know where you got the news from. I just came here to meet my friends. This Did it offend you and Mr. Dulin too, madam?"
Sofia laughed again. She laughed and shook her head, and then looked at Mr. Tuckers at the door. "Look, our young friend is unwilling to admit anything. Don't you want to say something?"
