Kowloon wins

Chapter 267

The rectification of the salt affairs is definitely a huge and cumbersome project, and it is impossible to accomplish it overnight. Hongqing knows this very well, so even though she really wanted to return to Beijing earlier, Hongqing still endured it. She lost her temper and started from the beginning step by step. Except for the matter of the salt tour camp which was handed over to Ji Huaijin, Hong Qing was not in a hurry to make any more ruthless moves. After several days in a row, she only did one thing, and that was The account books and various files of the Salt Office were transferred out, not only for the more than [-] workers who came with him, and the accountants of the two households to conduct a thorough accounting, but he himself participated in it personally.

There are seven yamen offices for salt transportation in the world—Lianghuai, Liangzhe, Changlu, Hedong, Shandong, Fujian, and Zhili. Can we talk about the distribution of salt merchants? In Yangzhou, 30% of the salt merchants with a little strength are also in the Lianghuai area. In fact, apart from a small part of the salt merchants issued by the imperial court every year, as many as [-]% are obtained by salt merchants in Shandong and Fujian. Yanyin was released from the Yamen of the Lianghuai Salt Transport Envoy, which caused a mountain of account books and files in the Lianghuai Salt Transport Envoy's yamen. Given the size of half the room, it would take three or two days to thoroughly investigate even if there are brothers and sisters. I usually arrive early in the morning, and return home with all my heart as late as the lights are on. That kind of persistence is really comparable to the frenzy of gold panning. Arriving at the post station, just got off the sedan chair, and saw several people standing outside the gate of the post station, with the help of the light of the lantern hanging on the door, Hong Qing couldn't help but froze on the spot.

How did she come?

Seeing Cao Shuang'er's petite figure standing gracefully in the dimly lit place, Hong Qing's heartstrings trembled involuntarily, but at the same time, an inexplicable irritability also surged up, nothing else, You must know that Hong Qing's body is filled with the thinking of an adult, and he didn't have any special "sexual interest" in his previous life. Although he likes beautiful women closely, he doesn't have the hobby of destroying Huaguduo'er. Even if she is tempted by a beautiful woman, it shouldn't be a little girl like Cao Shuang'er. The problem is that the trembling of the heartstrings can't be faked. This makes Hong Qing very puzzled, and can't help being annoyed secretly. Of course, what was annoying was only his own inexplicable emotions, but it was not directed at Cao Shuang'er.

"The grass people kowtow to the little prince!"

Before Hong Qing came to her senses, she saw Wang Cunmiao, who was standing beside Cao Shuang'er, had strode towards Hong Qing with big strides, and made a respectful gift.

"Brother Wang, you don't need to be too polite, and please get well."

Although the mood is fluctuating, but the city is deep, Hongqing will not show any gaffe at this moment. Facing Wang Cunmiao's big gift, Hongqing naturally accepts it calmly. He raised his hand and called out warmly.

"Thank you, little prince Ron."

Ever since I accompanied his father to see Hongqing's ruthlessness a few days ago, Wang Cunmiao no longer dared to call himself a friend, and after thanking him politely, he just stood up, but he didn't dare to stand upright, and bowed slightly Wearing clothes to show the distinction between upper and lower.

"Little girl Cao Shuang'er has seen the little prince!"

After Wang Cunmiao saluted, Cao Shuang'er bit her lips slightly, and obviously hesitated for a while, then walked forward gracefully, and greeted Hongqing with a blessing, crisply and vividly.

"Ms. Shuang'er doesn't have to be like this. Ben Baylor didn't know that Miss Shuang'er was here. It's all Ben Baylor's fault for keeping you waiting."

Seeing Cao Shuang'er approaching gracefully, Hong Qing's heart beat faster again, and when Cao Shuang'er saluted herself, Hong Qing's heart beat as if hitting a deer. Unexpectedly, some people became at a loss, and the words they answered seemed a bit incoherent.

"Heh, giggling..."

Even though it was dark and the light of the lanterns beside him was not very bright, Hong Qing's embarrassment was too obvious. Others were holding back and did not dare to laugh, but Cao Shuang'er obviously had no such scruples, and couldn't help but let out a burst of embarrassment. The silver bell-like laughter immediately made Hong Qing's face turn red, as for the people standing beside them, their faces almost turned green with suppressed laughter.

"Brother Wang, Miss Shuang'er, it's very inconvenient here, how about you talk inside?"

No matter how I lived for two lifetimes, Hong Qing was really helpless to be made into such a mess by a little girl, but this happened purely due to her own gaffe, even if she wanted to, she couldn't find it. When it came to the reason, besides, even if there was a reason, I'm afraid she wouldn't be ashamed to attack the little girl. There was no way, Hong Qing could only smile at herself, waved her hand, and extended the invitation with a hint of embarrassment.

"My lord, please first."

Although I wanted to laugh out loud, but Wang Cunmiao didn't have the courage, and was so suppressed that his handsome face was twisted into a slightly ferocious face. When Hong Qing said please, he hurriedly bowed to cover up, respectful He said humbly and politely.

"Well, please, Miss Shuang'er."

With such a buffer, Hong Qing was relieved, so she let out a soft sigh, waved her hand at Cao Shuang'er who was still smiling, and invited her gently.

"Ah."

Just meeting Hong Qing's eyes, Cao Shuang'er, who was smiling, suddenly blushed, lowered her head hastily, and gave a shy sigh.

Haha, how old is this little girl, and the aura of ecstasy is so powerful, how can she be born in the future.

Seeing Cao Shuang'er's shy look before saying anything, Hong Qing couldn't help but tremble again. Of course, annoyed heart immediately aroused, and she muttered in her heart angrily, and dared not say anything again. Looking at Cao Shuang'er's alluring face, some of them walked towards the post station as if they were running away.

"So that the little prince can know that my second aunt's birthday will be in two days, so my father thought of making some arrangements. It would be a great fortune for the Caomin family if the little prince could welcome him."

After a group of people had a meeting in the living room, they each sat down as guests and hosts, and the guards of the palace who accompanied them rushed to serve the freshly brewed fragrant tea. After some innocuous polite words, Wang Cunmiao took out a gold-plated invitation card from his wide sleeves, held it in both hands, raised it high above his head, and respectfully extended the invitation.

Second aunt?Oh, yes, it is Cao Shuang'er's biological mother.

Hearing Wang Cunmiao's words, Hong Qing was taken aback for a moment, but soon recalled the gorgeous second lady she saw at Cao's house, and she understood the intention of Wang Panshou's move, to put it bluntly It's nothing more than using the tiger's skin as a banner, and the reason why Cao Shuang'er was sent along with her was just because she was afraid that Hong Qing would not appreciate such a face.

"Well, since it's Mrs. Cao's birthday, then Baylor should go there to rejoice, so it's decided."

Even though she saw through Wang Panshou's tricks, Hong Qing didn't care too much about it. There are still many things that need to be used by the Wang family. After much hesitation, he readily agreed.

"Thank you, little lord, for making it perfect. The grass people are very grateful."

Wang Cunmiao came to invite this time at the order of his father, and he was really afraid that Hongqing would not show face, nothing else, the identities of the two parties were too different, with the identity of a merchant like the Wang family, even with Cao With Yin's relationship at such a high level, Hong Qing and other aristocrats like Hong Qing could see it in their eyes without seeing him, so he couldn't help but feel nervous. At this moment, when he heard that Hong Qing agreed so readily, even if I was so excited that I couldn't hold it back, so I hurriedly bowed and thanked him.

"Brother Wang, you are too polite, such a trivial matter is not worth mentioning."

After a whole day's work, Hong Qing was already tired, and she really didn't want to chatter endlessly. In addition, with Cao Shuang'er present, Hong Qing felt uncomfortable all over, so she was much more lazy. After a polite sentence, she went That is, he shut his mouth.

"The little prince has worked hard for days, and the grassroots dare not disturb him, so I will leave first."

Wang Cunmiao is the heir of the Wang family. He has been around the officialdom since he was a child, and his ability to read faces is not bad. Seeing that Hongqing has shown a slight intention of chasing customers, he dare not come again. Stay longer, so I hurried to say goodbye.

"Well, Brother Wang, let's go back and tell Uncle Wang that Ben Baylor will definitely arrive in the evening of the next day."

Seeing Wang Cunmiao's sense of humor, Hong Qing thought highly of Wang Cunmiao, and didn't say anything to keep her. She just made a promise, and immediately picked up the tea bowl, as if to see off the guests.

"The little prince stays, and the grassroots leave."

After Wang Cunmiao bowed and saluted, he led Cao Shuang'er and went out.

Halo, this girl...

Cao Shuang'er obediently followed behind Wang Cunmiao, and walked all the way to the screen at the entrance of the hall. Before turning around the screen, she turned her head suddenly, looked at Hong Qing with a smile on her face, and immediately walked and turned around She lifted the screen, and it didn't matter that she didn't look back this time, but it made Hong Qing's heart tremble again, and the tea bowl in her hand almost fell to the ground.

Damn it, it's his grandma's business!
Hong Qing angrily put the tea bowl on the table, got up anxiously, walked back and forth in the empty hall for a few steps, then stopped suddenly, raised her head and laughed, her mood suddenly brightened , not for anything else, just because he already thought through it—this may be the sequelae of time travel, after all, the body belongs to someone else, and since some things cannot be explained clearly, it is no big deal to let it be , all in all, the heart will not lie, since the heart is moved, then it is okay to follow the heart. Marrying one from the left and the other is marriage, and marrying a few is also a marriage. At worst, if you encounter a heartbeat, you can just marry and go home. .
