Until she returned to the General's Mansion, Lu Jinxi was still in a trance, her legs were inexplicably weak when she walked, and she felt that Gu Juefei's words kept echoing in her ears.
Like a spell.
For the first time, she realized that if Gu Jue insisted on being honest with her, she would not be able to fight by a duel.
At first, it was just a love story.
But for some unknown reason, until after taking Gu Juefei back to the Grand Master's Mansion after a long detour, she felt an inexplicable trepidation when she thought of this.
Who is okay to say such a love story
Limited by the times, she is a woman after all, but Gu Juefei is a man, or a man who is interested in the court. The difference in energy between them is actually far beyond what ordinary people imagine.
Sometimes, it's not what he can't or can't do, but what he wants and doesn't want.
"No, the more I think about it, the more I fall for his plan..."
The siege is the bottom, the heart is the top!
How could he know that he said this just to make her think like this? When Lu Jinxi walked into the room, she couldn't help but mutter to herself.
But then there was a wry smile.
Because thoughts are uncontrollable.
Once the seed is planted, it will take root and sprout, and even if it has not grown into a towering tree, it will definitely leave traces in my heart.
This Gu Juefei...
Things are settled.
As Lu Jinxi had expected, Gu Juefei is indeed a person who really wants to stabilize the border between the two countries, and he really needs to show some political achievements that can convince others in the current matter.
So instead of taking advantage of the situation, he also offered some advice and help.
From the status quo of the two countries negotiating peace, to the political situation on the Xiongnu side, to the border gates and the situation of several large commercial firms in the Central Plains, he actually knew everything like the back of the hand.
The Shaanxi-Gansu area is even more precious.
He even told her that the firm that she could find most likely to cooperate with her was named "Sheng Longchang".
This company was originally a first-class large firm in Shaanxi. It traded with the army during the war, provided military supplies, and made a lot of profits from it. After the truce, although they lost this source of income, they have great business ability and can still get involved in the Central Plains trade.
But a family change led to its decline.
After the death of the old boss Sheng Rong, the sons Sheng Hong and Sheng Xuan held their own opinions on Sheng Longchang's management issues.
Since then, Sheng Longchang's glory is gone forever.
The eldest Sheng Hong moved his family to Jiangnan and started from scratch, while the second child Sheng Xuan remained in the northwest and wanted to develop in Sichuan and Shanxi.
Although it is still called "Sheng Longchang", it has actually become two unrelated families.
Let's not talk about how the boss Sheng Hong has done for the time being, Sheng Xuan, who stayed in his ancestral land in Shaanxi, has had a really hard life recently, and he is about to reach the situation of being stretched.
It can be said that no matter in terms of scale or situation, it meets Lu Jinxi's requirements.
Before leaving, Gu Juefei suggested to her: "If you have the opportunity, please contact Shenglongchang, Shaanxi Province. I met the two brothers of the Sheng family when I was traveling. Although Sheng Xuan is the youngest son of Shengrong, he is kind-hearted and upright. One is of good character and business integrity; the other is to be loyal and easy to control. You can find him to cooperate. If you can't get in touch, come to me again, and I can mediate for you."
“Sheng Longchang…”
Repeating these three words all the way, Lu Jinxi walked back to the east courtyard, and called Qingque over before entering the house.
"Qing Que, is there a letter from Yin Liu'er?"
"Yes, I'm about to tell you." Qingque put down the work of cleaning up the desks and chairs, and directly picked up a thick booklet from the case on the side and handed it to Lu Jinxi, "When he came, You just went out, and you just said that all the things you want are on it, so you can choose and take a look. If you have any orders, just say hello to him."
Lu Jinxi took it over, but without answering, she opened it to look.
The booklet is filled with selected firms one by one. The first three words on the first page are "Sheng Longchang", and later, the current situation of Sheng Longchang is recorded in more detail.
She turned to Shenglongchang, Shaanxi and took a look, and it was exactly what Gu Juefei said!
Then there are other companies.
She didn't skip it, sat in the room, and slowly flipped through it, only to think that there was indeed no one more suitable than Sheng Longchang.
At this time, he laughed.
"It seems that Yin Liu'er has a lot of work to do. It's considered a heart to put Sheng Longchang at the forefront." Lu Jinxi put down the booklet and called Bailu again, "I have some things to do tonight, you go to the brothers and sisters. As I said, there is no need to come over today to say goodbye."
"Yes."
This kind of thing often happens, and the lady doesn't care about the etiquette of the morning and evening like other people, so there is nothing strange about the egret.
Xue Mingli, Xue Mingli, and Xue Chi were all still young, so of course Lu Jinxi said what he said, knowing that he didn't have to ask for peace today, and he didn't feel anything.
But Xue Tingzhi was different.
When Bailu went to speak, he was reading a book in the house, and he seemed to ask casually, "Is something wrong in the house?"
"That's not true. It may be that there is something to be added to the house recently, and I'm looking at the firm." Egret has always had no scheming, and said something casually with a sweet expression on his face.
This was originally quite vague.
The egret didn't feel anything.
But when Xue Tingzhi heard it, his eyes turned lightly, and he didn't ask any further questions. He only said, "I have the elder sister Bailu," before sending the person away.
When the egret returned, it was already dark.
Lu Jinxi was in the study.
She and Qingque brought food and served them, and when they brought the red dates and longan soup, they said: "Just now, the servant said that there is no need to ask for peace, the eldest son asked if something happened in the house, and the servant said that you might be What to buy depends on the name of the store and the firm."
With a frown, Lu Jinxi raised her eyes and glanced at the egret, then lowered her brows in thought, shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's not a big deal."
She is now a big favor to Xue Tingzhi.
This bastard is not a fuel-efficient lamp, but no matter how you look at it, he is a smart person, and he will not spoil her affairs if he is full and has nothing to do. After all, he knows how much he has.
Therefore, Lu Jinxi was not worried.
After dinner, she stayed in the study, facing Sheng Longchang's situation, and began to draw up plans and alternatives for her cooperation.
In this way, a busy day is the third watch.
When they were done, the candles lit on the desk had already burned to the bottom.
Egret came in and changed a lamp for her, and then waited for her to wash up and sleep.
As soon as she woke up the next day, she asked Yin Liuer to inform Yin Liuer first to discuss some more specific matters at Hanmoxuan, and at the same time asked Qingque to inform the house to prepare a car to go out.
Unexpectedly, when it was time to go out, an unexpected guest came.
"Ji Heng?"
Hearing Pan Quan'er's report outside the door, Lu Jinxi was taken aback.
"Isn't this the gentleman I was going to invite for Sister Li and Sister Lang? Didn't I tell you that when you came to visit him, don't ask him to visit the General's Mansion?"
Outside Pan Quan'er was also bitter in her heart, and said aggrieved: "Xiao, according to your instructions, set up a residence for Mr. Ji, and he agreed, but he must come to see you, and said that he would like to thank you for your kindness, and he would not dare to ask you to go. He placed it there. So today, he came first by himself. Do you want to see me?"
Thank her for being so kind
This Ji Heng's experience can be regarded as embarrassing, but the case of the Dali Temple fire has nothing to do with Lu Jinxi, and she doesn't remember any great favors she has given to him.
With some doubts in his heart, Lu Jinxi thought about it, plugged the last bead hairpin in his hand, and said, "Of course I want to see you, please sit in the front hall."
