Chapter 83 Dinner Party
Chapter 83 Dinner Party
Central, Wu Kee Clothing Store
Looking at Xiang Hongying, who was radiant under the bright lights, Qin Huai's eyes lit up and he immediately broke away from the numbness of looking at countless sets of clothes. He nodded heavily and applauded repeatedly.
“It looks good, this one is the best.
The red dress with red tassel, I think this is the most beautiful set.
Hongying, what do you think? "
Xiang Hongying moved around, feeling the dress on her body which was somewhat different from cheongsam and theatrical costumes, and nodded, agreeing with Qin Huai's statement.
"Let's take this. I'm not used to the black one. I prefer this red one."
Qin Huai waved his hand, and the tailor came over to measure the two men. While measuring, Qin Huai said to the tailor,
"Master Wu, I think it's too late to make custom ones for tonight's dinner. Please just alter these two sets so that we can wear them out tonight."
"I see. What about this set?"
Qin Huai looked at the black dress in Master Wu's hand and smiled.
"If you have time, please change it together. I will send someone to pick it up."
"Okay, take care, both of you!"
After changing her clothes, Xiang Hongying naturally took Qin Huai's hand and prepared to go out.
Qin Huai didn't plan to stay here for long. He pushed open the door and wanted to walk towards the jewelry store next to him.
Xiang Hongying, however, pulled Qin Huai with her bare hands, causing him to stop.
"No need for jewelry, this is enough."
Qin Huai heard the beauty's suggestion and turned his head to stare at the green and yellow ancient jade on Xiang Hongying's chest, comparing it with other jewelry.
"But I forgot about it. Well, with it on me, other jewelry just looks inferior.
Then let’s not waste time, let’s go eat first and fill our stomachs.”
"It's almost evening, don't we have to go to the dinner?"
"Hehe, at a foreigner's banquet, who knows if you can get enough to eat."
Xiang Hongying thought of Qin Huai's appetite, smiled silently, and let him do as he pleased.

Central, Kowloon Hotel
Qin Huai, wearing a dark blue suit, was walking towards the banquet hall with Xiang Hongying, who was wearing a red dress. The red and blue combination of the handsome man and beautiful woman attracted a lot of attention in the hotel.
Xiang Hongying, wearing women's high heels, was quickly adapting to the conditions under her feet with her coordination that was far superior to that of ordinary people. After a while, she no longer needed Qin Huai's support and walked out with a unique charm on her own.
"Hongying, you have to outshine everyone today."
Hearing Qin Huai saying strange things again, Xiang Hongying raised her eyes, moved closer to the man, and blew her hot breath with moisture on the man's neck, making the man feel itchy.
"As long as you like it."
The two entered the hall and looked at Li who was welcoming guests at the door. Qin Huai smiled and greeted her.
"Mrs. Li, congratulations. I haven't seen you for a few days. You are going to do business together. You must have found a way to make more money."
"No way, I still have to thank Boss Qin. If it weren't for your love, how could we have a win-win situation?"
"That's right, that's right. But I still have to say that although this miracle medicine is good, you still can't take too much. The more anxious you are, the more likely you are to end up losing more than you gain."
After saying that, Qin Huai left Li, who was somewhat puzzled, glanced at Yu Yang who was standing behind Li, then turned around and walked towards the seat with Xiang Hongying.
"You're being naughty again."
Xiang Hongying looked around, leaned on Qin Huai's shoulder and whispered,
"No, I just asked someone to exchange some things with them. Even though they don't know, I'm doing this for their own good."
Qin Huai moved his lips slightly, and whispered a few words of defense, making sure that only Xiang Hongying could hear him.
"Aren't you afraid that they will cause trouble for you later?"
Xiang Hongying changed her posture and continued to talk quietly while pouring tea for Qin Huai.
"Hehe, the mountain man has his own clever plan. You'll know it in a few days." Qin Huai didn't intend to plot loudly in this crowded place. After pulling Xiang Hongying to sit next to him, the two of them waited quietly to see how Blank would perform on the stand.
Seeing that representatives from all the major forces in Kowloon had arrived, Blank cleared his throat and prepared to start.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have invited you all here today because I have some great news to tell you!"
"That means the miraculous inflammation medicine that has been making waves in Kowloon in recent years is no longer exclusive, because we in Europe also have this technology!"
"What are you waiting for? The opportunity to make a fortune is right in front of you! Invest in us now, and you will earn hundreds or thousands of times more in the future!"
Every word was like a bombshell sinking to the bottom of the water, shocking the various forces below the stage.
Although they all had their own guesses before they came, they still found it a little unbelievable to hear that there was a sucker willing to share the hen that laid the golden eggs with others.
“How do you prove that your medicine works?”
An old man with elegant clothes and pure white hair raised his cane and asked Blank on the stage a question.
“Of course it’s because we used the same technology to create the same miraculous medicine!
Although the effectiveness and output are not very high due to the workers' skill level, its killing effect on bacteria is exactly the same as the one sold by another company!"
Qin Huai also clapped along with the crowd, and added in his heart, "That's just what you thought."
"Then it is almost certain that the seller is not cheating."
“This business can indeed be done.”
"That's right. Moreover, these foreigners have a lot of capital. Once more factories are built, won't the money flow in like the water of the Pearl River?"
……
Blank couldn't help feeling proud as he looked at the people below the stage whispering to each other and calculating their gains and losses.
But when his eyes swept over Li who was silent in the stage, he felt very dissatisfied.
You bitch, you always be wary of me when we do business together.
I want to see your culture technology but you won't give it to me. Every time I make raw materials, I have to look at your mood. Now I get the finished culture medium from you.
Do you know how much time I wasted and how much money I lost in earnings?
Li, who was dressed in luxurious palace clothes, caught a glimpse of Blank's disgusting expression on the stage, but she had her own plans in mind.
Although foreigners have become more powerful in recent years, it is reasonable for me to make some concessions in the business world.
But when she thought of the demanding requirements of the majestic middle-aged man and the extraordinary skills of Master Yu behind him, Li raised her eyebrows, a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes, and the look she gave Blank became more dangerous.

Xiang Family, Theater
Li Bingwu was drinking tea with Xiang Yihai. Looking at the empty huge theater after closing time, Li Bingwu felt a little emotional.
"Brother Xiang, when do you think Hongying will agree to marry into our Baji Sect?"
"Don't ask me, I don't know. It's easy to guess what these kids are thinking, but it's also hard to guess.
In my opinion, I think it’s not that Hongying doesn’t agree, but that your kid may not have the intention. "
"You said Ah Huai has no such plan? That's impossible. He has been coming to your place almost every day in the past few months."
Before Xiang Yihai could reply, a scholar in a long robe rushed into the theater gate with several pieces of letter paper.
"No... this is bad, the person sent by the Qing court is the King of Hell!"
