Chapter 16 The shrewd woman
With Situ Lingjia's words, Qin Yuelou's heartbeat beat uncontrollably, and his heart was shocked inexplicably.
At this time, he knew that he had ignored one thing, that is, although ordinary people do not know the role of "Ligu Iron", it does not mean that people in these big families do not know its role! Moreover, the Situ family is engaged in the material business. They often trade across cities and must know more than other families!
In the face of Situ Lingjia's question, Qin Yuelou tried to keep himself calm on the surface and not to expose the shock and panic in his heart.
You must not let outsiders know about practicing the star magician by yourself!
Qin Yuelou looked at Situ Lingjia with a faint smile and said, "Why did Miss Situ ask that? Cultivation of star carving? I don't quite understand what you mean!"
"Real!?" For Qin Yuelou's denial, Situ Lingjia did not show surprise, but smiled more brightly: "Can Master Qin tell me what you want to do with so many 'ligu iron'? As far as I know, the monthly cases given by your Qin family without adult children are quite small. The 'ligu iron' of 200 yuan, I'm afraid your monthly cases in these years is not much more than enough!"
I have to admit that this woman's shrewdness exceeded her own expectations.
Qin Yuelou was secretly surprised, but on the surface, he looked dissatisfied and asked, "This is my own private matter. Do I need Miss Situ to ask?" I buy things and you sell things. That's what the shopkeeper of the Situ family should do!"
"Yes, that's the case in theory!" Situ Lingjia smiled more happily, "However, I don't stand in the seller's position, but in another position!"
"Where is it?" As soon as Qin Yuelou finished speaking, he regretted a little, because Situ Lingjia's words really made him unable to refute. A cunning look flashed in Situ Lingjia's eyes and said, "Because I'm standing in your sister-in-law's position, that's why I told you!"
"sister-in-law?!" Qin Yuelou looked at Situ Lingjia in surprise, stunned, and then laughed, "Why don't I know that my brother has a wife, and I don't have any other brother except Qin Feng!"
Situ Lingjia looked at Qin Yuelou with some shame, stretched out his jade finger, pointed to Qin Yuelou and said, "Bad boy, I asked because I care about you. Don't ignore the hearts of good people!"
"Miss Situ, you are not un lovesickness, are you?" Qin Yuelou stared at Situ Lingjia's shy and angry face and suddenly said.
"You!" Situ Lingjia was suddenly stunned, and then looked at Qin Yuelou with extremely complicated eyes. He sighed and said, "Forget it, since you don't want to say it, I won't force you. However, if you need any help, you can come to me. For your brother's face, I will try my best to help you!"
Qin Yuelou looked at Situ Lingjia and knew whether this woman was telling the truth or a lie. However, after all, he is still not deeply involved in the world. Even if he is smart, there are too many things that he can't figure out.
Listening to Situ Lingjia's words, Qin Yuelou thought for a moment. Seeing that Situ Lingjia's expression did not seem to be pretentious, he gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, I bought it for a friend. He is now practicing star carvings!"
"Friends?" Situ Lingjia's eyes flashed a trace of cleverness, and then said doubtfully, "What other friends do you have? Is it the Star Magician?
"Yes, he has just started to contact the Star Magician, but he is not a son of our family, so he doesn't have that much money. He can only entrust me to help him buy 'Ligu Iron'!" Even if Qin Yuelou believed in his heart that this woman liked his brother, he still did not say the fact of his cultivation. After all, he was still a little defensive against this shrewd woman.
After a pause, Qin Yuelou continued, "Oh, and he doesn't want me to reveal his identity!"
"Oh, that's it!" Situ Lingjia said suspiciously, "I don't know how your friend's talent is? Star magician, that's a kind of person with transcended status. So far, there hasn't been a star magician in Tianlong City!"
Qin Yuelou hesitated for a while and then said, "He didn't tell me about this, and I don't know the details!"
Staring at Qin Yuelou for a long time, Situ Lingjia smiled and said, "Well, I can provide you with 'Ligu Iron' for free, just think of it as a friend who cultivates your star magician. However, what he makes in the future, can we show our Situ family first?"
"This..." Qin Yuelou looked at Situ Lingjia hesitantly. He didn't know what kind of psychology this so-called "sister-in-law" was, and it was not easy to answer for a while.
"Don't worry, you are his brother. If you don't want to, I won't force you!" Situ Lingjia's face was gloomy, and then said, "As long as you believe that I don't mean anything to you, I want to help you wholeheartedly!"
If this sentence was put in the past, Qin Yuelou would not hesitate to believe it, but after experiencing the things of Cheng Wanyue, Qin Yuelou did everything with a heart, smiled and said, "It depends. I will tell him!"
"Even if he doesn't agree, I'm still willing to provide everything to help you, my good brother!" Situ Lingjia looked at Qin Yuelou with deep meaning and said with a smile.
Being a little hairy by Situ Lingjia's eyes and this sentence "brother", Qin Yuelou thought for a while and said, "Then please Miss Situ!" Since the other party believes that it is his "sister-in-law" and it is a profit-free and harmless transaction, Qin Yuelou naturally has no reason to refute it.
"Well, that's it. Then we will be partners in the future!" Stretching out his jade hand, Situ Lingjia smiled like a fox at this moment, blinking his beautiful eyes and making a sincere look.
"It's my honor to be a partner with Miss Situ!" Qin Yuelou smiled, stretched out his hand, and held it symbolically with Situ Lingjia. When he touched Situ Lingjia's soft, white and greasy jade hand, as smooth/tender as silk, his heart couldn't help swinging and forgot to pull it back.
"Bad boy, you dare to think crookedly at such a young age!" Seeing Qin Yuelou's stunned appearance, Situ Lingjia sneered, pulled back his hand without leaving a trace, and said angrily.
"That..." Qin Yuelou smiled awkwardly, with a little embarrassed on his face. However, after solving the problem of "Ligu Tie", Qin Yuelou was also in a good mood and said, "Bright, Miss Situ, is this how you know my brother? Are you... really the person my brother likes?"
"The person he likes..." A trace of pain flashed in his eyes. Situ Lingjia forced a smile and said, "We won't talk about this. You just need to know that I really help you, because you are his younger brother!"
Qin Yuelou has heard her say this sentence three times. At this moment, it is naturally difficult to ask more questions, so he has to laugh a few times.
Seeing that the atmosphere was dull again, he hesitated for a moment. Then Qin Yuelou said, "Miss Situ, can you give me 'Ligu Tie'? I'm afraid it's getting late. I'm going back to my family!"
"Oh! Look at me, I almost forgot!" Situ Ling Jiamei smiled and didn't show any embarrassment at all. She stood up generously and said, "Then I'll go and prepare for the young master of the Qin family!"
Qin Yuelou nodded. After the two left the room, Situ Lingjia regained her true character as a businessman and said to the middle-aged shopkeeper waiting outside, "Mr. Tie, go and get ready and get all the 'Ligu Tie' in the warehouse. I have already negotiated with the young master of the Qin family!"
