Chapter 215 You really think I have never seen the world
The unique implicit expression of Ming people is that when you are really rich, you must not let others see that you are rich.
But in the eyes of wealthy people of the same level, one cannot be too low-key and shabby.
The same goes for girls. A truly educated lady will not compete with the courtesan in a brothel, wearing red and colorful clothes.
You must have a jade bracelet on your head, a jade bracelet on your wrist, a sway when walking, sitting or lying down, and a jade bracelet that does not ring. Even if others don't understand these rules, they can still see the obvious difference between you and those coquettish bitches outside.
The next morning, Li Mumu made an appointment with the middleman introduced by the bank manager to meet at the coffee shop.
Serious people these days usually go to teahouses to discuss matters, but precisely because there are so many people there, it is not easy for the girl to show her face in such places. Choosing a cleaner coffee shop is more suitable for the new generation of women.
The middleman's surname is Tong. He is a middle-aged man with a very elegant temperament. He is well-dressed, polite, and very professional when talking about business.
"I briefly inquired on the phone before. The two ladies have just returned from overseas and are looking for a maid to serve them?"
Mr. Tong persuaded him sincerely: "In front of the two ladies, Tong doesn't have to worry about anything. If you just want to find a smart, diligent little maid, this couldn't be easier. You want to find a girl who is studying. It’s not difficult to find a literate girl, but it’s really hard to find a girl who understands English. To tell the truth, which is not very nice, in these days, a girl whose family conditions are good enough to learn English will have trouble even if she works as a concubine for a serious family. She may not be willing, let alone be a maid.”
"If it's a simple matter, there's no need to specially invite you here."
Li Mumu felt the same as Ming Jing about this routine of wanting to promote before suppressing. Really not? Why are we here to talk without you? It's nothing more than raising the price.
"Sir, you may have misunderstood. We don't just hire one maid."
Li Mumu raised her hand to signal to Winsty who was sitting next to her: "This friend of mine is a descendant of a European aristocrat. He grew up in a rich life and had no one to take care of him. Everything else is fine. The most important thing is that he can't understand Chinese. Come on. It’s not even convenient to travel after we get here. Our language and culture are profound and profound, and even if we hire a teacher to teach us, we can’t learn it in ten and a half months.”
"I understand your difficulty. It's nothing more than finding a woman who understands English and is willing to do housework. This is not a problem. We can hire a cook, a housemaid, and a housekeeper. The name is the accompanying translator. You can’t be too old. The most important thing is that you have a clean family background and are down-to-earth in your duties.”
Mr. Tong sat up straight in an instant, with a kind smile on his face: "If you say so, it's really much easier. I don't know what kind of dishes you like. If it's Western food, it's really hard to find it. There's nothing else. Question. It’s best to find a maid who is a rough messenger. I happened to bring some photos here today. Which one is suitable for you? I will bring them over later. As for the translator... I happened to bring a child today. His family background is innocent. , has a gentle temperament and is also well-educated. I am in the first grade of junior high school this year. I have been taking English classes in school for more than half a year, and I can speak more or less two sentences in English."
Li Mumu smiled and said nothing, waiting for his "but".
"It's just that she is young and can't do heavy work. And she has just arrived here. She hasn't had time to train her yet. She doesn't know any rules. I'm afraid that she is young and ignorant and won't do things well and disturb the nobles."
"Where is it? Bring it here so we can meet."
Seeing that Li Mumu finally became interested, Mr. Tong was not in a hurry. He took a sip of coffee and said with a smile: "Actually, this child is very talented and well-behaved. I think she likes her as if she is my own daughter. I originally wanted to take care of her." Keep her around for a few years to educate her, and then give her a good way out. I wonder if Miss Li only plans to use her temporarily for a few years, or does she plan to buy her out?"
Li Mumu asked with a smile: "How many years do you use it? What do you say after buying it?"
Mr. Tong smiled and said: "What I mean is that if you are just short-term and lack a girl to help you, then we will sign a short-term labor contract. This girl is very old and will not be able to get married. . Once the years are wasted, it will affect the rest of your life. But if you like her and want to keep her by your side and provide her with food and accommodation for the rest of her life, then it will naturally be another contract."
Li Mumu asked in surprise: "Is there still a selling contract?"
"Of course not. Don't think so. We are now under a new government and a new society. Human trafficking is prohibited. It is illegal to sign a life-sale contract."
Mr. Tong smiled pretending to be profound: "If you really have this intention, I will naturally have a way to make the child willingly follow you, so that he will not have other thoughts in the future. But in terms of cost, I'm afraid..." "How much?" money?"
"A thousand dollars."
Li Mumu smiled.
This is really a daredevil to ask for a thousand dollars... I'm sending a telegram to Seve right now to hire a professional team that specializes in doing dirty work and come over by boat. It won't even cost you so much to train you and throw you into a brothel to pick up clients. money.
"Mr. Tong, I am very disappointed in you. You do not respect me."
After saying this, she stopped looking at Mr. Tong and turned to Winsty and said in English: "This man is a liar. It seems that the manager of Xingguo Bank is not a serious person. Let's go back and file a complaint against him."
Winsty nodded and said, "I asked my dad to call their president. This is so shameless and it wastes so much of our time."
Mr. Tong, who was sitting opposite and could obviously understand English, had a slightly changed expression.
What business people like most is to take advantage, especially children from rich families like this who don't understand the market and don't care about money. If they don't take advantage of them, they will have a hard time with their conscience. But who would have thought that he would be kicked onto the iron plate all of a sudden?
"Wait a minute, Miss Li, you may have misunderstood."
The smile on Mr. Tong's face did not diminish, and he quickly made amends: "What I quoted to you is a fixed price, not only the price of the child, but also the cook and rough maid you just wanted to find."
Li Mumu smiled and shook his head: "Mr. Tong, let's just talk about this today. We have other things..."
Hearing what she said, Mr. Tong suddenly became a little anxious: "At least take a look at the child I brought."
"...Okay then, let her come over."
Watching Mr. Tong walk out of the coffee shop quickly, Winsty whispered to Li Mumu: "You can't live in your home with so many people."
"I know."
Li Mumu smiled crookedly: "He didn't really want to recommend any cooks to me. From the beginning to the end, the only thing he wanted to promote was the child he brought. But I always feel that there is something wrong with this person's attitude. He Doesn’t something look right between the two of us?”
Winsty nodded and said: "If you think something is wrong with him, then there must be something wrong with him."
Similar words were said by Li Mumu the last time she took action to kill Arthur.
Although she didn't agree with Li Mumu's reckless and reckless behavior, she never had any doubts about Li Mumu's intuition.
Intuition, for the descendants of the witch family, is a talent that is infinitely close to prophecy.
