Chapter 328: Knowing the Beauty’s Age

Shumei Paper Factory is a very elegant name that fits the temperament of a talented woman.

According to the description in Lushui City's "Qiuyuan Evening News", the Shumei Paper Mill was the paper mill that Shen Rongqing bought from the He family two years ago. At that time, there was only a small article on the third page of the Evening News. information.

When he arrived at the entrance of the paper mill, Li Banfeng was in no hurry to go in. He was not sure whether the current paper mill was still Shen Rongqing's business.

He entered a newsstand first, bought two magazines, and chatted with the boss.

"Do you know who the boss of this factory is?"

The stall owner of the newsstand shook his head and said: "I have been selling newspapers here for more than ten years, but I have not seen the owner here in the past two years."

"Seen before?"

"I've seen it before!"

"The previous boss' surname was He. Have you ever met him?"

"Who said what's the last name? The boss here is named Tu!"

"The surname is Tu?" Li Banfeng was puzzled. This factory was obviously a property that Shen Rongqing bought from the He family, and it was even published in the newspapers.

Is this stall owner just fooling around?

"What was the original boss's name?"

"Tu Shumei, in Heishipo, our boss Tu is also a famous figure. Everyone in the papermaking and printing industries knows her. Later, for some reason, the business could not continue, so he cashed out the deal. This is in Heishipo. It’s quite common.”

Tu Shumei.

Her surname is also Tu.

Li Banfeng remembered something. Qin Xiaopang once said that Tu Yinghong also came from Heishipo.

Is there any connection between this Tu Shumei and her?

Li Banfeng asked: "How old is Boss Tu?"

The stall owner thought for a while: "I remember she was nearly sixty when she was still in the factory."

She's not Tu Yinghong, so she doesn't match her age.

Or what does it have to do with Tu Yinghong?

"I want to meet this boss Tu. Do you know where she lives?"

The stall owner shook his head and said: "I don't know about this. I heard that she is no longer on Heishipo."

"Are there any relatives living here?"

"No, when Boss Tu's business was at its most prosperous, a reporter came over for an exclusive interview. Boss Tu said that her parents were dead, she had no children, and she had no brothers or sisters. It was serious to run the business by herself. A hero among women!”

In this case, she may not be related to Tu Yinghong.

Is what this stall owner says reliable?

Since he remembered the interview from a few years ago, why didn't he know about the news in Qiuyuan Evening News?

Is it because the news is too inconspicuous?

"Do you have the Qiuyuan Evening News?"

"I don't have one here. Are you from Green Water City? No one in Heishipo reads the Qiuyuan Evening News," the stall owner chuckled, "If you want to read serious news, I have the Greentown Daily here."

This is a newspaper run by the Ling family, and there is a market in Heishipo.

Ling Miaowen and Ling Miaoying are both dead, but the Ling family's newspaper is still run by someone.

The stall owner went on to say: "If you want to watch something serious, I have a lot to offer. The most serious thing in Heishipo is undoubtedly "Tuberose"!"

Li Banfeng's cheeks trembled.

Who said "Tuberose" is not serious?

"Get a copy of Tuberose."

"Do you want newspapers, magazines, or movies?"

Li Banfeng was stunned: "Do you still have a movie?"

"Yes, the movie "Tuberose" is published once a week. I have the latest one, and I also have past issues in stock!"

Is this all sold on newsstands?

The stall owner raised his eyebrows and said, "Would you like one? Twenty-eight yuan!"

Li Banfeng frowned and said, "Twenty-eight yuan is not cheap. I might as well go watch a movie. Isn't "Blood Gun Detective" more enjoyable than this?"

"Can it be the same? "Blood Gun Detective" was shown in the cinema. You are excited to watch it. Come to the cinema? How shabby? No one can do that kind of thing except Ma Junyang from Green Water City.

"Tuberose" is different. You set up the machine at home and play it secretly without anyone knowing! "

"What if my wife finds out?"

"Don't be afraid if you find out. Let's look at it together. Let me tell you, my wife is so cute..."

Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "I don't have a movie player."

"I have this, it's also made by Tuberose, the authentic Qichuan brand.

Qichuan brand?

Who gave this name?

Started by Ogawako?

Why did you bring me with you?

The stall owner took out the movie machine and asked for eight hundred.

Li Banfeng counter-offered 600, but the stall owner refused: "You don't have to worry about selling this thing. 800 is considered cheap. Many people are frugal and want to buy one at home, and many reporters from newspapers are also grabbing it." Go buy it,

I'll give you newspapers, magazines, and the reel of film. I can also give you a curtain as a discount. This machine won't cost you even a penny. "

The stall owner didn't let go, but Li Banfeng wasn't angry.

He bought a movie player, carried the machine, a shelf, newspapers and magazines to the paper mill.

The janitor of the paper mill came over, looked at Li Banfeng and said, "Who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for your boss."

"What's your business?"

"I'm a reporter."

Seeing that Li Banfeng was well-dressed and holding a movie machine, he looked like a reporter. The doorman said, "Please wait here for a while, and I'll go ask our manager."

After a while, the manager also came, smiled at Li Banfeng and said, "May I ask, which newspaper reporter are you from?"

At this time, we cannot talk about "Tuberose", we have to talk about a serious publication.

"I am a reporter for "Blackstone Talk" and I want to do a special feature on the paper industry."

The manager was much more polite. "Black Stone Talk" still has a high status in Heishipo.

"Our boss is not in the factory. Can we make another appointment?"

Li Banfeng said: "This is not appropriate. I am in a hurry to produce the manuscript."

The other party did not force it. After a few polite words, Li Banfeng left with the machine.

Shen Rongqing has many businesses under his command, which are hidden very deeply. His subordinates are also well-trained. It is difficult to find out the results openly.

We have to try to find an insider.

Bai Qiusheng and Yu Wenqi are from Heishipo. We have to find them first.

Li Banfeng went straight back to the newspaper office. Bai Qiusheng was surprised and said: "Seventh Master, you are here!"

Li Banfeng carried the movie machine and smiled: "Where is Chuanzi? I am here to celebrate his success. Let's set up a banquet."

Not only do we have to celebrate the success, but we also have to reward Chuanzi with a large sum of money and give Chuanzi 20% of the shares of the movie machine.

Bai Qiusheng said with embarrassment: "Seventh Master, Chuanzi is sick and has been unable to get out of bed for two days."

"Sick?" Li Banfeng's head buzzed, and he immediately thought of the sick cultivator.

He went to Chuanzi's room and saw Chuanzi lying flat on the bed with a pale face. When he saw Li Banfeng, he wanted to speak but couldn't.

"Has Chuanzi met anyone recently?"

This question stumped Bai Qiusheng.

Chuanzi has been busy with the projector business recently and has met many people. How can he start talking?

"Seventh Master, how about we slowly sort it out..."

"Let's sort it out on the way, and send Chuanzi to Green Water City first."

"Seventh Master, the doctor said that Chuanzi is too weak to move easily."

This is troublesome. If he really encounters a sick cultivator, Li Banfeng can't find a solution except Cuitik.

In the midst of anxiety, Jiuhulu suddenly whispered in his ear: "Little brother, let's find a place to talk."

Li Banfeng returned to his room, and Jiuhulu said: "Little brother, this little brother's symptoms are different. Ma Wu is really sick, and this little brother seems to be tired."

"Just tired, he has rested for two days, but he still hasn't gotten better?"

Jiuhulu said: "I have followed the King of Medicine for many years, and I will not be wrong about basic pathology. How about we consult my sister?"

Li Banfeng returned to Suishenju, and Jiuhulu told the record player about Xiao Chuanzi's symptoms.

Whisper!

"The symptoms seem to be overworked, and he hasn't gotten better after lying down for a long time. How is this person's physical condition?"

"Very good."

When driving the road roller, Chuanzi was in good health. After entering the Taoist sect, his physical condition has improved a lot. Logically speaking, simple fatigue should not knock this young man down.

The wife asked again: "Does he have any cultivation?"

"A craftsman on the first floor."

"Has he made anything good recently?"

"I made a movie projector." Li Banfeng showed the movie projector in his hand to his wife.

The projector on the side snorted coldly and said: "The materials are rough, it's really unbearable to look at."

Compared to him, it must be rough and inferior.

"But this thing is cheap, ordinary people can afford it, and you can watch movies by unfolding a screen at home."

"How is it selling?" The wife rarely asked about business matters.

"Business is booming."

"That's right, husband, the craftsman makes good things with good reputation, and the time will increase sharply. The more people use it, the better the reputation, and the faster it will increase.

Looking at this kid's situation, he will definitely be promoted to the second floor, and it is even possible to cross to the third floor. The physique of ordinary people can't stand such a promotion."

Let alone ordinary people, Li Banfeng can't stand the cross-level promotion.

"Does my wife have a solution?"

"Hey, husband, if this were any other sect, the cross-level promotion would definitely lead to death, but the Gongxiu and Gengxiu sects are special cases, and there is still a chance to ease the situation. I will write a prescription, and my husband will go get some herbs first."

Li Banfeng was surprised and said, "My wife has such a method?"

The record player laughed, "Hey, husband, you married me, did you find a treasure?"

"What a treasure, what a treasure!" Li Banfeng put his face against the record player and rubbed it hard on the cabinet door for a long time.

The record player laughed so hard that he couldn't breathe: "My husband, you can't do it, my husband has a beard, and it itches me to death."

My wife wrote a prescription with a record needle, and Li Banfeng asked someone to get the herbs back, then moved the red lotus and refined the herbs into a pill.

"Give him this pill to take, let him rest during this period, wait for the peddler to come, buy a bowl of resurrection soup, and he will be able to get through it."

Li Banfeng quickly fed the pill to Chuanzi.

After taking the pill, Chuanzi was obviously getting better. Li Banfeng gave instructions and called Bai Qiusheng.

He asked about Shen Rongqing.

Bai Qiusheng's reaction was similar to Ma Wu's: "Shen Rongqing is a talented woman. All the literati in Heishipo know her name."

"Two years ago, she bought a paper mill in Heishipo. Do you know about this?"

"I don't know," Bai Qiusheng shook his head repeatedly. "A talented woman like Shen Rongqing shouldn't be able to do business, right?"

"What's wrong with doing business? Is it embarrassing?"

Bai Qiusheng laughed dryly: "She can support herself with her talent. There is no need to work hard on business."

Li Banfeng asked again: "Do you know Tu Shumei?"

"Yes, she is a heroine, a repairman, and a big shot in the paper printing industry.

Chuanzi bought a hand-cranked printing press before, which was made by Tu Shumei. All the small newspapers in Heishipo rely on this small printing press to make a living."

Repairman?

Tu Yinghong is also a repairman!

But the age doesn't match.

"How old is Tu Shumei?"

Bai Qiusheng thought for a moment and said, "If I remember correctly, she should be sixty this year."

Sixty years old.

Assuming that she reached the first level at the age of twenty, and practiced step by step for forty years, her cultivation should be at the fifth level.

Since she is a big shot in the papermaking and printing industry, it proves that she is talented. It is not impossible for her to reach the sixth level, or even close to the seventh level.

She made a hand-cranked printing press, which has a good reputation and many people have used it.

If she reaches another level, it will be the seventh level, or even close to the eighth level.

This is consistent with Tu Yinghong's cultivation.

Li Banfeng returned to Suishenju and asked his wife: "Can a repairman repair his face?"

Before the record player spoke, Hong Ying spoke on the side: "Yes, Qilang, next time you catch a live repairman and bring him back, I will let you see my old face."

PS: If Ling Miaoying knew that Tu Yinghong was sixty years old, I wonder what she would think.
