Confucius businesswoman: proud of the world

Chapter 135 The Mysterious Man
If they were not spared, it meant that the Kong family was neither unlucky nor unlucky occasionally, but that they really offended someone.

Offending people in the capital is no small matter.

Kong Linglong looked at Madam Liu: "Linglong, thank you Madam for telling me this. If Madam doesn't mind, stay here and eat before leaving."

Based on the previous relationship between the Kong family and the Liu family, being able to keep the old lady of the Liu family for dinner is an act of intimacy.

Mrs. Liu also knows how to take it when she sees it, put down the memorable Longjing tea, and said: "In the end, I'm still meddling in my own business. Since I've said everything I need to say, I won't bother Miss Kong. Your lady is busy."

She sent several waves of people from Liu's family before but couldn't get in, so this remark was a bit teasing.

Kong Linglong didn't poke it, and got up from the chair with a smile: "Then I will see the old lady."

The two walked to the outside of the door, keeping aloof and polite, Mrs. Liu's carriage stopped at the gate of Kong Zhai, after getting on the carriage, the confidant girl who followed said: "Why should the old lady condescend, what do you have to say? Let the slaves pass it on from generation to generation."

Mrs. Liu's face was no longer the kindness she had in Kong's house just now, and she said coldly: "Since I owe her a favor from the Kong family, it is of course best to repay the favor early."

Not everyone who has a feud can shake hands and make peace. It means that they will stop fighting, but they don't want to associate with each other.

Kong Linglong twisted the lid of the teacup: "It's time to give the favor of Mrs. Liu."

Fu Ling said: "It turns out that that is the old lady of the Liu family, she is really old and strong."

Some people have heard of them even if they haven't met. Kong Linglong and Mrs. Liu belong to this kind of people.

On the other side, Yu'er quickly packed a few bags and came to report.Because Kong Linglong ordered to be as simple as possible, it was quite easy to clean up, and naturally it didn't take time.

Yu'er said: "Miss going out, don't you tell the people below?"

Kong Linglong is the head of the Confucian family, so she should be in charge of the Confucian mansion. If she wants to leave, what will she do with the information sent from all over the world for manpower and shop business?

Kong Linglong then ordered the two servant girls: "To the outside world, let me tell you that I am going out to travel and inspect the shops in the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun. During this period, the letters sent to Kong's house will remain as usual, and I will arrange for reliable people to keep them."

Fuling's eyes widened, Miss wants to travel?Why did Hao Duanduan think of traveling thousands of miles to see the Confucius shop in other places?
One must know that the shops of the Kong family are as numerous as cow hairs and stars. Even in the distant Mobei, there is also the ancestral property of the Kong family. Does the lady still want to go to Mobei?
Seeing Fu Ling's dumbfounded expression, Yu'er stretched out her arm and bumped her: "Just do as Miss does."

Sure enough, as soon as the news spread, someone came to the door immediately. They were the senior and loyal shopkeepers of Kongzhai: "Why does the young master want to go to Yunyou? The army is in chaos outside. It is better to live in Xianyang if one of the young masters is less."

Once the young master left, they didn't have a backbone. They had a hard time during the six months of "sickness".

Kong Linglong smiled and said: "The world is peaceful now, where is the chaos? I know what the uncles are thinking, but as the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. Although Linglong is the head of the Confucian family, But I haven’t left Xianyang for more than ten years, which is also contrary to my grandfather’s teachings. My grandfather also traveled all over the country and completed the expansion of the Confucian family’s shop to a large extent, which is a good thing.”

It's a good thing, but Mr. Kong is a man and a world-renowned iron-fisted businessman. Kong Linglong is a girl who has just reached the age of [-]. She doesn't know how many dangers and tribulations she will encounter when she goes out. It is even more whimsical to want to develop a family business.

They persuaded: "Young master, we all believe in your ability, but it is extremely difficult for a woman to go out. The young master wants to know about the shops in various places, and he can receive annual reports from everywhere every year, so why bother?" How about going to toss it yourself?"

What they were also worried about was that Kong Linglong went all out to manage the shops in other places, and they all said that the generals would not accept the military orders abroad. If the shops outside were not managed well, then Xianyang would be implicated. Isn't it laborious and unwelcoming?
Kong Linglong had already made up her mind, but she also knew their worries, so she said: "Don't worry, uncles, this trip is limited to one year. I believe that these uncles will be able to manage the shop well within this year." , Linglong will be back in a year, and Linglong is here to promise that as the head of the Confucian sect, she will make a promise that this trip will definitely not disappoint everyone."

The young master was full of confidence, and they couldn't persuade them anymore. After staying for an afternoon, they each left with a sigh.

Kong Linglong watched them leave with a smile. Her self-confidence was justified. She had lived a lifetime longer than anyone else in this world, which was enough for her to do many things.

After choosing an auspicious day, Kong Linglong went out.In addition to bringing more than [-] accompanying martial artists, the maid only brought Yu'er and Fu Ling, who are close friends, especially Fu Ling's medical skills, which can play a big role along the way. The rough messenger girl, when you get to a place, just buy one or two for temporary use.There is no need to work from the Confucian house to mobilize the crowd.

This trip not only needs to be light and simple, but also to keep a low profile as much as possible. Just as the shopkeepers reminded, if the three women travel with a high profile, they will simply be ostentatious.

The number of warriors cannot be saved, and it is also for safety.

A group of people left Xianyang in a low-key manner. The guards at the gate of the city who were in charge of exiting the customs saw the customs clearance document issued by the county magistrate Geng Guozhong himself. They were too embarrassed to check the carriage, so they let the group out.

The news of Kong Linglong's departure spread from Xianyang half a month later, and everyone in Kong's residence said that the young lady went out to roam and inspect the situation of Kong's shop. The same thing works the same way, wherever there is a branch of the Kong family, there is a place for Ms. Kong to live in an open and aboveboard manner. How can ordinary people have this kind of treatment.

Kong Linglong's three girls, master and servant, walked for two days, and gradually adapted to the terrain and features of the outside world, feeling refreshed and happy.

Yu'er said happily: "Miss, we haven't even dropped a single drop of rain in the past few days since we came out. It seems that God has favored Miss to go out this time."

Kong Linglong looked at the sky without a single cloud, and smiled.

Fu Ling was a medical girl in the past, and she has traveled to many places, but the feeling of wandering around is still different from the feeling of being accompanied by a reliable person.She turned her head and said to Kong Linglong with a smile, "If Miss hadn't brought me back half a year ago, I wouldn't have had such an opportunity."

Thinking of half a year ago, Kong Linglong's eyes were a little gloomy. Half a year ago, she had just found out that there was something wrong with her body, and she had been able to diagnose the pulse by herself. After all kinds of thinking, she only found a strange woman who knew medical skills. After a few days, the person she sent Finally, Poria cocos was found.

Kong Linglong thought for a while, then told the coachman: "There is a town fifty miles outside the city, stop there for half an hour."

Yu'er and Fu Ling exchanged glances, and when they saw the place, Kong Linglong got out of the car first, took a look at Fu Ling, and Fu Ling understood: "Brothers, fill up your stomach here now, fill up the carriage with some water, and then we will go on our way." .”

The two followed Kong Linglong to the door of a house in the town. Kong Linglong looked at the vermilion gate and pushed it open.

Regardless of Fu Ling and Yu'er, neither of them followed Kong Linglong in, but stayed outside, watching the passers-by.

After Kong Linglong entered the courtyard, the sound of footsteps caught the attention of the owner of the inner room. A woman came out of the inner room and saw Kong Linglong at first glance, but she was not surprised.

"Miss Kong." The woman said calmly.

Kong Linglong looked at the woman and replied calmly, "Ms. Dou."

The woman smiled, wiped her apron with her hand, and said, "Miss Kong came in and said."

Kong Linglong followed the woman into the house, and the woman poured a cup of thick tea and pushed it over. You could see that the house entered three times and exited three times.

Kong Linglong lowered her head and drank her tea. The woman looked at her complexion and understood, "Looking at Miss Kong's appearance, don't you want to go out?"

Kong Linglong swallowed the somewhat bitter coarse tea, with a dejected expression on her face: "Yes, I want to go to the capital."

The woman said slowly: "The capital city is very far away."

Kong Linglong nodded.

There was nothing to say between the two of them.

After a while, the woman said: "Miss Kong, don't worry, we will take good care of him."

Kong Linglong took another sip of tea: "Okay."

The woman also stayed silent for a while with Kong Linglong, and then Kong Linglong put down her teacup and looked up at the woman: "I trust you."

The woman smiled at the corner of her mouth: "This is what we are willing to do. If we have to thank you, we must thank Miss Kong."

Kong Linglong said: "I'm only going for one year. If you have anything to do in one year, you can write to me in the capital at any time. When I arrive, I will give you the address as soon as possible."

Kong Linglong's going to the capital was not even told to many members of the Kong family, but he told the woman in front of him without hesitation, and also said that he would tell him his address in the capital.

The woman nodded, with a serious expression on her face: "Miss, he is your dearest person in this world, miss, please rest assured, we will definitely write his news to miss in a letter."

Kong Linglong had nothing to worry about: "Thank you."

The woman sent Kong Linglong out, "Don't need to send it, Aunt Dou."

The woman said with a smile: "Today my family took him to the store, otherwise, maybe the lady can see him again."

Kong Linglong pursed her lips and said, "Forget it, it's the same whether you see it or not."

The woman and Kong Linglong looked at each other for a while, Kong Linglong said goodbye with a faint smile, and left with the maid.The woman waited for her to go far before she closed the door.

Back in the carriage, Kong Linglong looked as usual, the coachman and the warriors had already replenished their energy with food and drink, and the horses had eaten grass, so they left the town and continued to drive towards the capital.
