For Lin Xi now, even if he went to a five-star hotel to eat and drink, it was just a drop in the bucket, but Song Li didn't know it.

At this time, Lin Xi suddenly seemed to think of something. After his eyes flashed, he asked Lao Wu for advice and said, "Uncle Wu, I heard that the investment company also invited a professional consultant to our pawnshop. Do you know who the professional consultant is?"

Lin Xi asked this question because he was worried about the professional consultant. After all, he was appointed as a new official, or he was directly promoted from the bottom. If the professional consultant disagreed with him, or deliberately elevated him, he would have been prepared if he knew in advance.

At that time, Lao Wu shook his head slowly when he heard Lin Xi's words. After speculating and pondering for a moment, he said, "I've heard about this from the investment company, but I don't know who it is... But don't worry. I guess the professional consultant should come later. I'll know it then. What's the use of being anxious now?"

After eight o'clock, Meng Fankai and Peter went into the pawnshop one after another. As before, they didn't seem to know that Lin Xi was the new manager of the pawnshop. In other words, they had already heard the news, but they didn't know that the new manager was Lin Xi.

Peter came five minutes earlier than Meng Fankai. He was still arrogant and defiant. After entering the pawnshop, he saw Lin Xi and Song Li cleaning. He just glanced at them, and then went to the office on the second floor. He didn't even say hello. He was as proud as a cockerel with his tail up.

But it has to be said that Peter is really a model. He is white and clean. His facial features can be called handsome. His hair is also combed neatly. He also deliberately put on the hair wax, and then matches it with the elegant casual suit. It's really beautiful. I don't know if he wants to hook up with the street girls.

As for Meng Fankai, he was no different from usual. He came in wearing a Zhongshan suit. When he saw Lin Xi and Song Li, he said hello with a smile. He even said hello to everyone in the pawnshop. He also exchanged greetings, such as whether he had been well in the past three months, and whether he would gamble at work in the morning.

After the greetings, Meng Fankai slowly walked up to the second floor and returned to his own office, which gave people a kind and friendly feeling. His senses were much better than Pete's, and he was more approachable. After all, no one would like the arrogant people.

On the wall of the reception area of the pawnshop, there is a European style pendulum clock, which is exquisite in workmanship and unique in shape, giving people a sense of delicacy, as if it were a royal pendulum.

Even if you don't look at it carefully, you will regard it as an antique more than a hundred years ago. But in fact, the pendulum clock is just a high imitation handicraft. It's just an affectation to hang there. No one will even look at the time on it.

Maybe some people don't know about taking care of yourself. It's actually a kind of clock and a kind of mechanical clock. It was invented in 1657 according to the law of simple pendulum. It uses a pendulum to control other parts, so that the clock can move at a uniform speed, and it can also report points, but it needs a spring to provide swing energy.

As for the working principle of pendulum, Lin Xi also knows that it works by the mutual transformation of gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy. In short, the pendulum that is pulled up will swing downward due to the influence of gravity. When it reaches the lowest position, there will be inertia, and it will continue to swing, just like the car brake can never stop immediately. When the pendulum goes over the lowest position, it will swing again Will reach another new height, and then swing back again, so repeated work.

According to the principle, if the pendulum has short legs, it can work forever. However, due to resistance and other environmental factors, the swing amplitude will gradually decrease until it finally stops. This is also the reason why the pendulum uses the spring to provide energy to make it continuously swing and work.

At that time, when the hour hand of the pendulum clock pointed to scale 8 and the minute hand and second hand pointed to scale 12 at the same time, the machinery hidden in the pendulum clock suddenly made a heavy and melodious sound, just like the bell in the Christian auditorium.

At the moment when the bell rang, a man came into the pawnbroker's door on time. He was tall, thin, expressionless, and his hair was so deep that he could almost cover his whole face. At least Lin Xi couldn't see his forehead. In addition, he was wearing black framed glasses, which immediately gave people a feeling that strangers were not near, as if everyone owed him a million and eight hundred thousand.

The man paused at the door and raised his glasses with his hand. Then Shi Shi ran went into the pawnshop, but he didn't say hello to Lin Xi and Song Li. Instead, he went directly into juedang District, because he was the owner of juedang district.

"Good morning, brother Jing"

although Song Li called Hu Jingyong "dead man's face" in private, when he actually met him, he was still "brother Jing, brother Jing". It was natural to say hello, as if he were a friend he hadn't seen for many years.

But when Jing Yong heard the greeting, he just stopped and nodded, then went on to juedang district. He didn't even look at Song Li one more time. Only when he walked into juedang district did he hear a hoarse monosyllabic: "good morning!"

It is obvious that song Li has been used to Jing Yong's attitude for a long time. He also knows that Jing Yong is not deliberately putting on a face, but just a simple character problem. After all, he has not seen him for three months. Even if Song Li knows Jing Yong's character, he will inevitably complain.Seeing Jing Yong enter juedang district and begin to clean up the area, Song Li and Song Yu complain: "dead man's face, you should not find your daughter-in-law"

hearing Song Li's murmur, Lin Xi feels funny, but can only bear it. Although Song Li and Lin Xi are about the same age, they have completed their life, and they have a lovely daughter, which seems to be her Three months ago, I was one year old when I closed down for rectification.

It was he who gave Lin Xi a one-year-old wedding candy, followed by fraud and business suspension. Therefore, he complained that song Li could not find his daughter-in-law. He really had the right to speak, at least more than Lin Xi.

Seeing that all the people who should come are here, but there is still no Chunchun who is in charge of the cashier, no former manager Zhang Jianping, and the so-called professional consultant. Lin Xi feels a little anxious. Don't they all come to work today?

The reason why Lin Xi is eager is not that he has feelings for them, but that according to his conjecture, an investment company should send someone to officially announce his appointment today, and even this person is likely to be Zhang Jianping. Even if there is no one to announce, there should be a document of appointment issued. Otherwise, just by saying it orally, that's not a good name.

"Manager Lin, you say that the professional consultant is coming. Is he in charge of you or you in charge of him? If the professional consultant is not easy to get along with, we will not have a good life... But don't worry, I will definitely stand on your side and never be a traitor."

Maybe it's Lin Xi. Song Li has come to ask him several times, but Lin Xi doesn't say a word. Until Song Li asks him for the fourth time, and it's almost nine o'clock, Lin Xi complains anxiously: "who knows? We all work for people. We can do what the salary company says, otherwise what can we do?"

At this point, Lin Xi turned around and looked at the time again, and continued: "if I really can't get along with the professional consultant, I'll quit. Anyway, my manager picked it up, and it's just a duck on the shelf"

"what's the matter? I just came back to work today, so I want to quit? Then I'll just go back. If I come all the way here, I can hear your boy's complaint without entering the door. "

Just as Lin Xi's voice fell, a familiar voice suddenly rang out behind him. It was a little old, but full of spirit and a little funny.

When he heard the sound behind him, Lin Xi was stunned. Then he turned to look at the door of the pawnbroker and the people who had just walked in. He was incredulously surprised and said, "shulao, how did you come here?"
