[Sense and Sensibility] Worth having
Chapter 53
Saying goodbye to Turpin, it was already afternoon.As soon as Christo stepped out of the door of Turpin's house, and was exposed to the warm afternoon sun, she felt as if she had passed away.
He refused the driver to take her home, but found a rickshaw at random on the street and asked him to take it to the nearest John's Bank*.She has lived in London for some time.She didn't have any money around her before, so she didn't show any inconvenience yet, but since she has to do some things, she needs working capital.
Life in the eighteenth century wasn't very boring, at least Christo still found a lot of fun in it.Banks in this era are mostly run by individuals, and bankers can be regarded as an integral part of the upper class.But this does not mean that they are invincible and stand at the top of the food chain.
On the contrary, once these private banks go bankrupt, his depositors will lose everything.Therefore, it is absolutely very important to choose a reputable bank.
As I said before, most of Christo's properties are controlled by mail, which means that she will lose part of her profits, and the saying that the sky is high and the emperor is far away applies everywhere.No matter how far-sighted the person at the helm is, in the face of improper execution, he can only hate in the end.
This is also the reason why Christo hopes to stay in London. If she stays, she will have the possibility of prescribing the right medicine and grasping her own property more intuitively.Not all of her business depends on Aurora.After all, Aurora is a girl of this era. She has no interest in factories, and only deals in clothing and jewelry.What's more, it is not a wise choice to rely entirely on others, so Christo bought land and factories on this basis.
She had learned before that the colonel would stay in London for two to three months every year, which was enough time for her to carry out any activities, and there would be no conflict with her daily life as a lady.
Thinking of the colonel, she felt that it would be better not to see the colonel in a short time.After all, as for those 'little problems' between them, it's better to leave it to time.Christo was very patient, and when she became a little clearer, she realized that it was not her who needed to be anxious at this moment.
The bank was located just a block away from the Turpins.Chris paid a small amount of labor costs. At this time, the remuneration of labor is surprisingly low. This is a business opportunity and a hidden danger.Needless to say, words of compassion, since he is the beneficiary, there is no need to pretend to shed crocodile tears.
Her attire today is grand enough, and she won't attract attention if she goes to some money.Even in such an era, there is no shortage of widows or other figures with clever means, who use a lot of money as women.She just needs to pay a little attention.
The bank is built on a corner, and the three-story building is almost the tallest building in the same area.In a city where buildings are generally only one or two stories high, a three-story building is simply magnificent.The gentlemen and women coming and going at the gate of the bank are dressed in gorgeous and formal clothes.
Being able to step into such a big bank is itself a manifestation of personal capital.The banking system hundreds of years ago may be very rough, but it cannot escape the basic law of avoiding risks and gathering sand to form towers.Even if this is not the case, it is always more reassuring to choose a big bank than a small one.
The process of withdrawing money went smoothly. In view of the idea of not putting all eggs in one basket, Christo has deposits in different banks, but the amount is not too large. She has friends who are good at investing, and she herself It's not too stupid to lose money, so it doesn't mean to put a lot of money in the bank and let the bankers enjoy the profits.
One thousand pounds of property in a big bank is like a drop of water in a big river. What if it is taken out? Countless drops of water evaporate from the big river every day, but new spring water will continue to flow in.Therefore, the withdrawal process of Christo went very smoothly.
She hired a slightly better carriage at the bank gate, and made a tour of London.If given the chance, she still wants to go to places that, according to her identity, she will never set foot on.
Although her family environment in this life was not considered wealthy, it was a bit exaggerated compared to being down and out.At least her family can still afford servants. Although there are no males, the sisters may support each other after marriage.Not surprisingly, she won't set foot in some of the poorer parts of London.
But she still wanted to see it.She just wants to know more about the world she lives in.Prosperity is only one-sided. The world is very big. There are many wonderful places and many unreasonable places. Seeing more and seeing more of the world can make a person grow up. Even if there is no obvious progress, he will definitely grow up. There are hidden accumulations.
She hasn't been out for a long time, and even if she has money, she can't go home with big things. What's more troublesome is that she has a lot of knowledge about London's snacks because of Todd's human pies. Obvious psychological shadow, even if Mrs. Jennings's recommendation sounded attractive enough, she really couldn't eat it!
The carriage moved very slowly, almost following the crowd of people going home at four o'clock.Christo did not put down the curtains on the car, which allowed her to see the numb or determined faces of passers-by outside. Of course, they could also see her.
She was stopped by an acquaintance.
Christo saw Alvin for the first time, he was quite conspicuous in the crowd.Not to mention anything else, just his straight back is enough to make Christo look sideways.This is a temperament, rather than simply puffing out your chest.
"Miss Dashwood." Alvin called to Christo.And Christo stopped the carriage.
She couldn't invite him to get on the carriage to catch up on the old days, but fortunately, it's not too far from Alvin's coffee shop.
It seems that Alvin closed his business early again due to business reasons.Maybe it's not just business, Aurora is one of the reasons?Please allow Christo to make a bold guess, because the man in front of him is even thinner than the last time he saw it, as if something was pulled out of his body, maybe it was passion or hope?
When the two sat opposite each other in the cozy coffee house, Chris enjoyed a late afternoon tea.She was waiting for Alvin to speak, they were not that familiar, so since Alvin called her in the crowd, there must be something to say.
She had to be back with Mrs. Jennings by five o'clock, so there was no great point in playing games.There was silence for a while, until the aroma of black coffee had filled the entire small shop, even when it was about to be picked up, Alvin said, "I know you are Aurora's friend, so I take the liberty of bothering you."
Chris nodded, his expression unchanged.She doesn't need any changes, because their relationship is actually not that familiar.It is one thing to hit it off at first sight, and it is obviously more important to know the truth.She is not married, the king is not married, if something bad happens, it can only be two people who are unlucky.
"Since you are a friend of Aurora, I dare to tell you some guesses I made shortly after opening the store." Alvin looked a little hesitant, and he tapped the table with his index finger knuckles a little anxiously, and then spoke with difficulty: " What I said may be a little sensational. But I think you should know something, and even if you don't believe it, you should be on your guard."
Kristo raised an eyebrow.She took a sip of coffee, then looked straight into Alvin's eyes, "I don't think I've seen as few things as you think. I consider myself a bold girl, so you can tell me directly if you have anything."
"It's like this." Alvin breathed a sigh of relief, and some things started, and it was not so difficult to say the following words, "There seems to be something wrong with the barber shop and mince shop opposite...my guess yes···"
Alvin slowly expressed his thoughts. If he had the opportunity, his accomplishments would definitely not be as simple as a down-and-out coffee shop owner.He has already observed that the people who entered the barber shop never came out again, and even logically deduced the whole incident.It can't be said that it is exactly the same, but there is almost no discrepancy.
Christo took a deep breath.It's very rude.She was not surprised by what happened, but was admiring Alvin's amazing talent.
Alvin smiled wryly, and said, "I know this won't convince you, but I still hope that you and your friends don't go there for consumption... just treat it as me telling a strange story..."
Christo tightened her grip on the coffee cup, she unconsciously glanced at the shop on the other side outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.She knew that it was different from listening to others. She felt that her voice was a little dry. After a while, she said with difficulty: "Then why don't you report to the judge? If it is true, you will definitely get a lot of money." A big reward."
When Christophe came home, she got stuck on the five o'clock line. Fortunately, sister Lucy seemed to be staying overnight with other ladies. In contrast, Christophe was late It doesn't look too obtrusive.
"Christopher, I think we need to talk." After dinner, Eleanor called Christo. To this eldest sister, Christo wanted to show the greatest face, she Stand still and look at Eleanor.
It's time to talk about it!Eleanor frowned secretly. Christo's recent actions reminded her of the incident when she suddenly visited the Colonel when she was in Barton and hadn't returned for a long time.
This is London, and every move of her sister may have a great impact. Eleanor originally thought that Christo should know, but now, she is not so sure.
