GBP Chapter 324 Himeko's Scheme
Chapter 324 Himeko's Scheme
"That's true, Xing. I think you're quite good at using your brain. Let's give it a try."
March 7th also chimed in from the side.
Xing pointed to herself and said with a look of surprise, "How did you diagnose that I have a brain?"
“Uh…” March 7th fell silent.
That seems to make sense.
At this moment, the Chamber of Commerce secretary said with concern, "It's alright, you can participate in this matter as an advisor to the Chamber. Even if you mess it up, it's okay... After all, the situation is already bad enough, how much worse can it get?"
"Sigh..." Everyone sighed when they heard the Chamber of Commerce secretary say that.
"It's all that honorary director's fault!"
"It's because of her that the company set its sights on Golden Man Alley."
"That's right, that's right!"
The dockworkers were immediately outraged and blamed the company's honorary director for the mistake.
"Hey everyone, don't get so excited!" March 7th immediately stepped forward and said.
“I can assure everyone that the honorary director is not that kind of person.”
“It’s all caused by people working under the company,” March 7th said definitively.
"How can you be so sure?" a dockworker asked.
“Because, because…” March 7th didn’t know what to say.
March 7th was unsure whether or not to reveal Eve's identity.
What if they get even more agitated if I tell them?
At this moment, the Chamber of Commerce secretary stepped forward and said, "Everyone, the company's honorary director is the one who saved Luofu."
"If it weren't for her, we wouldn't even have the chance to argue here right now."
"Therefore, please do not slander her."
At this moment, the workers all fell silent.
The secretary is right. Putting everything else aside, the company's honorary director did indeed save Luofu.
"But the people in the company said that if we don't hand over Golden Man Alley to them, the honorary directors will destroy us."
"We're going to be exiled to the frontiers of the universe."
"We didn't want to either."
"We're at our wits' end," the workers sighed.
"What? Eve said she's going to wipe you all out? How is that possible?" March 7th was utterly shocked.
"Ok?"
At this moment, the workers and the chamber of commerce secretary all focused their attention on March 7th.
"You mean Eve?"
"Isn't that the name of that honorary director?"
"You know the company's honorary director?" the workers asked, puzzled.
At this moment, Himeko stepped forward and said, "That's right, the honorary director you mentioned is a member of our Starry Sky Train."
"I am Himeko, the navigator of the Starry Sky Train."
"Therefore, I believe she wouldn't do such a thing."
“That’s right, that’s right!” March 7th chimed in from the side.
"It must be that someone below is causing trouble under Eve's name."
“It seems that’s indeed the case.” Walter Young thought so too.
At that moment, they all thought of the same person.
Scott!
"That's it! It's that guy!"
“I think so too. These past few days he’s been going around promoting his achievements as an honorary director.”
"It's confirmed, let's go find him!"
The workers realized what was happening and immediately wanted to confront Scott.
At this moment, Himeko shook her head, "No."
"We still have no grounds for argument."
"After all, it was Jinren Lane's poor management that led to its inability to pay the company's rent first."
"We respect the spirit of contracts."
"Going to find him now would put us at a disadvantage."
“Ms. Himeko is right.” The Chamber of Commerce secretary nodded.
"So what should we do now?" the workers asked, puzzled.
Himeko thought for a moment, and then little by little, ideas appeared in her mind.
"First of all, we must continue to work on increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, and Jinren Lane must be developed."
"Actually, we'll take care of that company specialist's matter. You don't need to worry about the rest."
The workers exchanged glances and nodded. "Okay, we trust you."
"I'm counting on you, Ms. Himeko."
"We will follow orders. You tell us what to do, and we will do it."
The chamber of commerce secretary bowed deeply, "Thank you, Ms. Himeko."
"No need to thank us, we're just trying to salvage the reputation of our companions." Himeko smiled slightly.
"Anyway, thank you so much. Otherwise, we wouldn't know what to do." The Chamber of Commerce secretary was very respectful.
Himeko glanced around, silently assessing the situation.
"Walter, could you please help them develop a logistics system? Just use the one we provided to the space station before."
"Then Little March and Star will come with me, and we'll go meet that Scott."
“No problem.” Walter Young adjusted his glasses.
He excels at planning and drawing.
Himeko nodded, and everyone immediately began to get to work.
The workers surrounded Walter Young, listening intently to his next plan.
Himeko was discussing countermeasures with Hoshi and Sangetsu-shichi.
At this moment, Su Chang approached Ji Zi and the others.
"Um, can I join you guys too?"
"After all, this bet is mine, and I can't just do nothing." Su Chang said somewhat embarrassedly.
Himeko thought for a moment, "Then I'll trouble you to help promote it at Changletian."
"They said that the company's honorary director was going to come to Jinren Lane in person to guide the work and prepare to help Jinren Lane plan logistics routes."
"Huh?" Su Chang was a little confused. "Is that important person really coming back?"
"You don't need to worry about that," Himeko smiled slightly.
"Since he is causing trouble under someone else's name, he should be prepared to suffer retribution."
"Okay, okay." Although Su Chang didn't know what Ji Zi was planning to do, she still agreed.
"Himeko, what are you keeping in suspense?" March Seven asked curiously.
Xing nodded in agreement.
"You'll find out soon enough." Himeko's lips curled into a slight smile.
While this matter could be told directly to Eve, it seems that Eve has reached some kind of agreement with the company and the alliance. If it is told directly, Scott might turn the tables on her, which would put Eve in a difficult position.
Therefore, Himeko chose to take a roundabout approach.
However, what she didn't know was that Eve had no interest in the company or the alliance at all, and was currently having fun with Bai Lu in Chang Le Tian.
"You seem to know this place well. What would you like to eat?"
Eve held Bailu's little hand as they strolled down the street.
Bai Lu's eyes lit up instantly. "Mom, garlic sprouts, pork belly, crispy cucumber, spicy chicken, taro, braised pork belly, spicy minced beef offal, Chen Po tofu... Ugh, my tongue's about to tie itself in knots! I can't even recite medicine names this fluently..."
"Stop." Eve crouched down and gently pressed a finger against Bai Lu's small lips.
"You can only choose one, Mom doesn't have much money left."
Eve opened Himeko's wallet, which contained only about 20,000 credits.
A good meal at Changletian is enough.
"Okay..." Bai Lu was a little disappointed, but she immediately became excited when she saw the food stalls next to her.
"We can grab a bite at a food stall first, and then go have a proper meal!"
Bai Lu ran over there.
Eve followed behind her, smiling helplessly.
At the food stall, the owner enthusiastically took out a menu, saying, "Take a look at the menu and choose what you want to eat."
Eve scrolled through the catalog and soon her gaze settled on something strange.
"Soda soy milk? Why does that name sound so familiar?" Eve wondered.
"Hahaha, you have excellent taste, sir! This is our signature dish, soda soy milk. Even the most discerning gourmets in Xianzhou say it's wonderful!" the owner introduced enthusiastically.
At that moment, Bai Lu secretly tugged at Eve's sleeve.
Eve looked over and saw that Bai Lu's little face was droopy, as if her whole body was resisting, and the little dragon's tail was shaking desperately.
Looking at Bai Lu, Eve found it very amusing and couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, boss, no soda soy milk, give me a bowl of lotus root cake instead."
"Alright, customer! One serving of lotus root cake!"
