The day of the interview with Inagaki Zhipei was a thunderous day.
There were a few dark clouds on the horizon, which were piled up heavily, like a huge and terrifying net weighing heavily between the green bricks and red tiles.
As soon as Hua Ting stepped into the door of Juxin Hall, she met a young man dressed as a soldier.
He stood in front of Hua Ting, respectfully gave her a military salute and said, "Hello, Miss Bai, Inagaki."
Mr.
Bai is having his meal in Room 201 on the second floor.
Miss Bai will come upstairs."
Hua Ting raised her eyebrows and stepped up the wooden handrail in front of her.
Through the carved wooden window of the second-floor box, she could vaguely see an officer wearing a military cap sitting inside.
He was far away and his facial features were unclear.
It's very clear, only a sharp-edged chin is exposed.
The box was quite large, with four garrisons erected at the four corners.
The waist and shoulders were straight, the face was solemn, and a gun holster was attached to the waist, and the gun barrel swayed with a warm yellow light.
There were several exquisite tea snacks placed on the mahogany table.
A pair of slender but well-jointed hands held a thin celadon tea cup and gently placed it on the table.
The dark red liquid swayed and almost spilled out.
Hua Ting raised her eyes slightly and followed the hands up, and then she saw clearly the appearance of Inagaki Shihei.
He was tall, with broad shoulders and narrow waist.
He was wearing a dark blue military coat and his skin tone was brighter than that of ordinary military officers who were marching and fighting.
She should be fairer, with long eyebrows at the temples and a high bridge of nose, making her outline as clear and firm as a knife.
But such facial features are actually paired with a pair of peach blossom eyes, and a smile brings a bit of evil, adding a bit of majesty.
Junyi.
I thought he would be a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears who had been brutally hacked by the ruthless butcher knife of time.
Unexpectedly, he looked quite handsome and domineering, and he had a slight resemblance to Bai Qihong.
"Miss Bai, please sit down."
Inagaki Shihei covered his robe and stood up to give up his seat.
He picked up the pot and personally poured a cup of tea for Hanata.
With a smile on her face, Hua Ting sat down gracefully.
She was wearing a very modern Western-style riding outfit today.
The velvet black vest outlined her beautiful figure.
The exquisite stand-up collar of her white shirt highlighted her slender neck and the edges of her chin, showing her arrogance.
Wearing a pair of leather boots that were close to the knees, his straight black hair was handsomely tied in a ball-like shape on his head.
This heroic appearance made him look even more handsome with this outfit.
"Thank you."
Hana Ting took the tea from Inagaki Shihei and said thank you with a smile, but there was a little bit of distant politeness in her eyebrows, which was different from her usual smile.
Inagaki Zhipei nodded, took a sip of tea, his eyes circled Hua Ting's face, and said with a smile, "Miss Bai is handsome and elegant, and looks nothing like Mr.
Bai."
The words were compliments, but the tone was frivolous.
Hua Ting laughed and did not answer, but said: "Mr.
Inagaki speaks Chinese really well."
"I've been in China for a long time."
He gently clasped the edge of the table with his right hand, his eyes never leaving the clear and moving eyes opposite him for a moment.
Hua Ting calmly took a sip of tea, crossed her legs and touched the corner of the table with the toes of her leather shoes.
She narrowed her smile and said, "I specially made an appointment with Mr.
Inagaki to come to Juxintang today.

I think Mr.
It’s time to guess my purpose.”
Inagaki Zhipei looked at her, his words were still casual, the corners of his lips slightly raised, but there was no smile in his eyes when he looked into her eyes, "Why is Mr.
Bai still not satisfied with the price negotiated before?"
He got straight to the point.
Only nonsense will satisfy the devil "Mr.
Inagaki, don't you think the price he offered is really a bit high?"
Hua Ting picked up a piece of osmanthus cake to her mouth with two fingers and said with a thick smile, "Does it look like a robbery?"
After that, she took the osmanthus cake.
After biting it, the round fingertips grazed the thin lips, and this simple movement was actually a little more romantic.
Inagaki Shihei's eyes twitched, but he didn't think she was being frivolous.
Instead, he smiled softly.
With his right hand, he brought the freshly poured cup of Jin Junmei to Hua Ting and said with a gentle smile, "Then what price does Miss Bai think?
most suitable” Hua Ting raised her eyes and smiled.
As she looked around, her watery autumn eyes were tinged with a coquettish red, "The price that Mr.
Bai originally offered to Mr.
Inagaki is perfect."
The reselling started in Jiangnan.
Wu Nong, who speaks softly with words, pays attention to the body style of lowering his eyes and speaking.
What this guy learned the same way was his charming eyes.
Inagaki Zhipei looked at her, raised his hand slightly, put his lips against the celadon cup, raised his eyebrows ambiguously and said, "Miss Bai doesn't seem to be sincere."
"If you want to say he is insincere, Mr.
Inagaki is more insincere."
She held the cup in her palms, then tilted her head and smiled at him, with a bit of liveliness and beauty on her pretty face, and a deliberately crushed light in her eyes.
It's even more ups and downs, "Business is all about mutual benefit and mutual assistance, but Mr.
Inagaki only considers the little profit at hand and abuses his power to bully the market.
Not only that, he also threatens to cut off sea routes and block people's and financial routes.
It's really It’s not something a gentleman would do,” she teased while holding hot tea, “After a long time, who dares to cooperate with someone like Mr.
Inagaki?”
Inagaki Zhipei was stunned after hearing the gentle words.
He was not angry, but laughed, "What Miss Bai said actually makes sense, but" Inagaki Zhipei laughed heartily, "In this case, I will You won’t get much benefit, right?”
"Why is there no benefit?"
The Japanese really do well when they get an advantage.
"Mr.
Inagaki, you might as well go to the private sector and ask how much opium is worth."
Inagaki Zhipei seemed to be in a good mood, and the smile in his eyes was a little more genuine than before, "The purpose of making opium is to make huge profits."
"But we also need to pay attention to fair cooperation."
Hua Ting smiled lightly, "Chinese people attach great importance to the word "reason", but judging from the request made by Mr.
Inagaki, it seems to be a bit too arrogant."
"Miss Bai, do you mean that I am unreasonable?"
Inagaki Zhipei raised his tone slightly, but there was no trace of anger on his face.
"Exactly."
Inagaki Zhipei didn't speak, he just looked at Hana Ting's eyes and slightly arched his eyes, rarely able to keep his smile.
"I hate only those lying monks and laypeople.
Where are the Buddhas in the gardens and trees in the world, where are the bright branches and leaves of the Buddha, where are the quicksand Buddhas on both sides of the rivers and lakes, and where are the eighty-four thousand Amitabha Buddhas."

The song "Sifan" downstairs has a long and circuitous melody.
It is played in a water mill tune.
The words are like glutinous rice grinding out sticky juice in a stone mill.
The voice is lingering, gentle and graceful.
After singing the song, Inagaki Zhipei finally said, "Miss Bai should know that I will not do any business that is not profitable."
"But in my opinion, in this opium business, Mr.
Inagaki's benefits are no less than those of Mr.
Shiro."
Hanating picked up the teapot and filled the empty cup in Inagaki Shihei's hand with tea.
Unexpectedly, he was hit by this sharp-jointed man.
The palm was caught.
The teapot shook slightly twice.
Inagaki Zhipei put the teapot back to its original position with a little force, but his hand was still covering Hanating's left hand.
Hua Ting didn't look at him, but he stared into her eyes, "I can agree with the price you mentioned, but" Inagaki Zhipei bent his fingers and held her palm back hard, "What kind of benefits is Miss Bai going to give me?"
Showing sincerity” Hua Ting's eyes fell on his face, and she was silent for a while, then she raised the corners of her lips and smiled softly, "Mr.
Inagaki, my husband is downstairs."
Her voice was so light that there was no hint of fishiness, and she glanced at Taohong with her raised eyebrows.
Looking at the rouge, Inagaki Zhipei started to feel tipsy.
As soon as Inagaki Shihei's little finger moved, Hana Ting withdrew his hand.
"It's just a joke with Miss Bai."
His tone was calm, as if it was just a casual conversation in the morning and afternoon.
"So, this business" "Sincerity."
Inagaki Shihei said these two words lightly, but Hua Ting shuddered.
As expected, Inagaki Zhipei is notoriously difficult to deal with.
Hua heard that he would not give up easily, so she was ready to face the difficulties.
"Then what kind of sincerity does Mr.
Inagaki want?"
Inagaki Zhipei stared at her for a long time, then raised his hand and asked someone to bring a white copper pipe.
Although he said nothing, there was a casual smile in his eyes.
Every inch of Huating's skin was trembling and the hairs stood on end.
She knew Inagaki Shihei's intention, but she still maintained a flawless face, and her smiling eyes slowly glanced back and forth on the pipe.
"I don't know if Miss Bai has tasted this thing."
Inagaki Zhipei carefully moved the white copper pipe to Hua Ting's hand.
There was thunder outside the window, and he had a faint smile in his eyes.
"What Mr.
Inagaki means is" Hua Ting was clearly smiling, but her eyes were bleak.
Such a contradiction revealed a faint fierce light in Hua Ting's eyes, "you want me."
"Take a taste."
