Confucius businesswoman: proud of the world

Chapter 160 Protecting You
When the herbs arrived, half the room was packed, and the most excited ones were Yu'er and Fuling.

Fu Ling circled the pile of medicinal materials non-stop, and said, "Great, great! With these, I can squeeze out the amount of scar-removing ointment for several months, and I can also try new medicines."

All medicines are based on the source, and no matter how good the medicine is, the medical skills can be brought into full play.

Kong Linglong said: "Let's settle the matter first, Aunt Lan on Yanqing Street, give her new medicine according to what we said before."

Fu Ling patted her chest: "Miss, don't worry, I can't guarantee anything else, so many good medicines are here, wrapped on my body."

Even if a few of the medicines are changed slightly, it is called a "new medicine", and the curative effect will not be bad anyway.Finally, there is no need to worry about the reputation of Baishanzhuang.

Kong Linglong didn't say anything else, but Doctor Xu and Xiu Niang were flattered, Doctor Xu said: "Miss, who sent these medicinal materials?"

The person who delivered the medicine only used a carriage, and no one could see his way from the inside to the outside. Except for the subtle look on his own lady's expression, Dr. Xu didn't dare to guess anything.

Yu'er's eyes wandered between Kong Linglong and the medicinal materials, and she didn't stop until Kong Linglong looked over.

Kong Linglong didn't want to say more about this, and the others were also winking and didn't ask, besides, the most important thing right now was already on this batch of medicinal materials.

-

Dr. Xu was called to the side by Kong Linglong: "Master Xu, the situation of Baishanzhuang is now stable, and there will be no accidents in the future, and there will be no more problems. I want to ask you something now. The existing Kong family in the capital is still alive. How many shops are there that can barely operate?"

Dr. Xu didn't expect Kong Linglong to say this straight to the point, and there was a strange look on his face.Sure enough...it really is like this... The young master came to the capital, it was really not just to give him a small medical clinic to support him.

"Miss, when did you know?" Doctor Xu couldn't help but ask.

Kong Linglong said indifferently: "Is it possible that I don't know about such a thing?"

Dr. Xu felt sorry for him, most people would think that the Kong family was unlucky at best, and that the shop would lose more than half of it overnight, but now Kong Linglong obviously doesn't think so.

Dr. Xu felt that it would be better to answer cautiously: "Small masters, in fact, counting Baishanzhuang, there are still five or six shops that are open normally."

Kong Linglong nodded, but there was no reaction. The Kong family had a total of 22 shops in the capital, and now only five or six of them are closed, which is basically equivalent to the house being cleaned up, a rather bleak figure.

The situation of Baishanzhuang was already like this. It wasn't for Kong Linglong's research and development of new drugs, it was also closed down at this moment, and the remaining few would only be worse.

Doctor Xu said frightenedly, "Young master, what are your plans?"

He also thought about it and felt that it would be safer to ask this first. It seems that Kong Linglong is sincerely for the good of the Kong family, so he shouldn't do something out of line, at least it won't cause any more trouble, but thinking of Baishanzhuang these days, Doctor Xu was suddenly not so sure.

It took a while for Kong Linglong to speak again: "I will move out in a few days. When the time comes, Baishanzhuang will be up to Dr. Xu."

This was the first time that Kong Linglong called out Dr. Xu, but Dr. Xu didn't have time to express his emotions. He couldn't hide his surprise: "How can the young master move out? It was agreed at the beginning..."

It was agreed at the beginning to move out after staying for a while.

Kong Linglong said directly: "I bought the house a while ago, it's not far from here, it's just above Jiqing Street, and if I don't leave, Baishanzhuang may be in constant trouble, and those who stare at it will also be in trouble." Won't let go."

The meaning was understood almost immediately, and it was precisely because of understanding that Dr. Xu felt sour in his throat: "Young master, you want to draw those people's attention to other places?"

What Kong Linglong did not only made Baishanzhuang famous, but more importantly, she set herself up as a target, and the sharpness of those hidden swords would be directed at her as the bullseye.

Dr. Xu suddenly said: "No, how can we put the young master at risk?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he already knew that he lacked confidence, but he was not reconciled if he didn't say it out. In fact, Kong Linglong became the head of the family, and when she came to the capital, she had already voluntarily jumped into the frying pan. How to do?
Kong Linglong looked at Doctor Xu and said, "In this world, we often have no choice."

Especially their low-level merchants.He dared not offend the gentry at the top, dare not endanger himself at the bottom, and even when defending, he was weaker than others.

That night, Dr. Xu told Xiuniang about Kong Linglong's decision. During this time, Fuling cared for Xiuniang a lot, and her mind also returned to a woman's softness. She was even more sad than Dr. Xu thought. I have had a hard life, but there are even more bitter ones, even those who cannot withstand the invisible pressure on my shoulders.

And Kong Linglong left as soon as she said she wanted to, but only two days later, she took Fu Ling and Yu'er, got into the carriage and prepared to leave.

Poria left behind a pile of wound medicine for scar removal, and a bottle of new medicine as a gift, so she felt that she could retire with all her merits and virtues.

The three masters and servants were as soft as they were when they came, and they were as soft as they were when they left. No one bought any flowers, nor did they have any new gadgets. They dressed lightly and came and went freely.

Yu'er said that this is what the young lady taught them.

Dr. Xu and Xiu Niang insisted on sending it off, but Kong Linglong didn't stop her. After all, where she lives, Dr. Xu also needs to know.In case something happens in the future, Dr. Xu is required to ventilate with her.

So they hired the largest carriage, and divided two into two, and drove to Kong Linglong's new house on Jiqing Street.

Doctor Xu became more frightened as he walked, and when he got off the carriage and saw the house in front of him, he immediately rubbed his eyes.

Such an imposing house... In comparison, his Xu's house pales in comparison, and he is a little confused.

And at the door, there was the matchmaker who was buying a house for the first time.

When the matchmaker saw Kong Linglong, she smiled brightly: "Miss said that I moved here in the past two days, so I hurriedly cleaned it up inside and out. Miss, come and see if you are satisfied."

At that moment, she enthusiastically welcomed Kong Linglong in. The courtyard was already elegant, but after cleaning it up, Yu'er almost thought that she and Miss had bought a new house.

I saw several pots of red sunflowers placed in the yard, colorful and colorful, as if they had entered a palace garden.

Kong Linglong also paused, then turned to look at the matchmaker: "This is?"

If it's a welcome, it's too grand.

The toothmaid smiled blindly, she just received 200 taels of commission, and she did her best: "Miss, I don't know, the original owner of this house was very happy when he heard that a new customer moved in. In the past two days, I ordered the purchase A lot of new things have been arranged in this courtyard, so I must make the young lady happy."

Dr. Xu looked sideways frequently. Housing in this capital city has always been in short supply, but now the service is so good, and he will help to arrange the garden?

Fuling said "Oh!" and hurried to a place: "Miss, there are plantains planted here!"

Plantain is a kind of herbal medicine, expensive but not expensive, but because it can treat many common diseases, so the doctor's Poria cocos feels kind when they see it.

The matchmaker looked at Kong Linglong and piled up good words: "The original owner has already explained that the girl can ask for anything, and if she is not satisfied, just say it. Since buying the house is destined, he must let the girl iron it out. .”

After hearing these words, Yu'er couldn't help tilting her head and laughing: "I heard you say that the owner of this house is a nobleman, but I didn't believe it, but now it seems that he really has the style of a nobleman."

How is it like the Liu family in the past, who were stingy and stingy, and even licked their faces and called it a noble family.

The prostitute said all the time: "That's right, you can tell who the original owner is by looking at this house, and the other end is good-looking and good-looking, and you can't find any faults."

Kong Linglong interrupted, and said: "Okay, Yu'er Fuling, you put down the salute first, and simply tidy up."

Even if the original owner was considerate, he would not help them tidy up the girl's bedroom, and had to do everything by himself.

The two servant girls listened to the order, first moved the package of the carriage, then rushed into the house to clean up, chatting is just chatting, they need to move in before night, so they can't be sloppy.

Dr. Xu originally came with a lot of worries, but seeing such a big house with such a bustling and bustling layout, he couldn't say anything.

Xiu Niang also said: "Miss Kong lives here, we are much more at ease."

If it was really unsafe or there were other hidden dangers, she could not agree to Kong Linglong's stay no matter what she told Dr. Xu.

Xiu Niang seemed to ask casually: "Is this house rented by the young master? How long has it been rented?"

Kong Linglong said: "I bought it, and the rented house is inconvenient in many places."

After saying this, Xiuniang also remembered that the matchmaker just said that she bought this house.Just looking at the environment and the enthusiasm of the matchmaker, how much money did it cost?
Doctor Xu knew the strength of the Kong family, so he looked at Xiuniang secretly, and said, "Young master, you and the girls are all women, and it's still too unsafe. Look, let me call the two guys in the shop, How about coming here to help the master?"

Dr. Xu's considerations are reasonable. The surroundings of this house seem to be safe and reassuring, but after all, it is his own young master who lives in it. Can he be more cautious or more.In particular, the old head of the family has gone, and the young head of the family is an orphan, it is really...

Kong Linglong was about to speak, when the prostitute twisted and twisted, and suddenly said: "Miss, do you need servants? I have several Kongwu and powerful male servants here, and they are guaranteed to come from clean and reliable sources. If Miss needs them, I will send them off right away." Bring it to the lady to choose."

This service is too thoughtful...

Kong Linglong shook her head, and said to the matchmaker as well as Doctor Xu: "No need, I live here with two maids, it's inconvenient to have a man in the house."

This is indeed true, Doctor Xu didn't insist any longer, and hung around with Xiu Niang for a while, until Xiu Niang's eyes lit up and she proposed that she would like to have a meal together in the house, and she would be responsible for it.

Kong Linglong hesitated: "I just don't know if the kitchen here can still be used."

Although the house is clean and tidy, since the original owner seldom comes to live in it, the kitchen must be dilapidated anyway.

Unexpectedly, the prostitute said: "The kitchen is very clean. As for vegetables, there is a vegetable market two blocks away, and you can buy everything you want."

Xiu Niang smiled and said: "That's great, I'll go shopping right now, after all, it's the first time Ms Kong has moved, so a good meal will count as a welcome."

Kong Linglong couldn't refuse such kindness anymore, so she called Fuling out and accompanied Xiuniang to go shopping.Fu Ling used to run around the rivers and lakes, and she did it by herself, so she went happily after hearing that.

Waiting for half an hour to buy vegetables and come back, there are big fish, big meat, chicken, duck and vegetables. Yu'er, who has already cleaned up, sees her mouth watering, and sighs secretly that it hasn't been so rich in a long time.

This made Dr. Xu a little embarrassed. It is true that his home is full of home-cooked dishes. Kong Linglong used to sit in restaurants every day, and even did not eat at home at noon. Come to think of it, he and Xiuniang did not cook any delicious food for these girls.

When the two of them came back from buying vegetables, about an hour later, the scent wafting from the kitchen made everyone feel satisfied.

And the matchmaker tactfully did not stay, and after explaining a few clear matters, she even asked Kong Linglong to look for her at any time, and then left in a blissful manner.

When the food was served on the table, Yu'er took over half of the table.Fu Ling laughed: "Just now I told the young lady that I will cook the meals in the future, and I am especially good at cooking medicinal meals."

Yu'er almost spit out, obviously, she had eaten the so-called "medicinal diet" in Fu Ling's mouth.

She looked at Kong Linglong asking for help.

Kong Linglong said: "Although there are not many utensils in the kitchen, they are quite complete."

Xiu Niang also nodded: "Yes, they are all high-quality kitchen utensils. It seems that Miss bought a good house."

Isn't it, there is no pickiness from top to bottom.

It's just that Kong Linglong felt that those kitchen utensils looked new. Could it be that the original owner of the house had used the kitchen recently.

-

Doctor Xu and Xiu Niang left the house in peace, Yu'er began to introduce the house to Kong Linglong excitedly: "Miss, this is the master bedroom at first glance, I have arranged the curtains and mattresses, and there are more, unexpectedly There is also an incense burner in the house, you are unlucky?!"

The original owner of this house seemed to be a man of great wealth and wealth. Such an exquisite incense burner was rare even in Confucian houses, so he kept the burner.

Fuling turned on the censer: "I happen to light incense every night and add a little medicine, which has the effect of peace of mind."

Kong Linglong stared at the censer, and then looked at other places in the room. Even if it wasn't perfect, it was infinitely close.

She said: "There are many houses here, you and Fu Ling share one room, and each of you brings Liuyin Whistle with you."

The sound of the streaming whistle is sharp, as long as it is blown, it can be heard in any corner of the yard.

Yu'er smiled and said, "Miss, don't worry."

---

Luo Congrong felt that he, the captain of the black cavalry, was responsible for the safety of the master, and what he was doing was licking blood with a knife.

Now he has become more and more an incompetent servant responsible for tracking down leftovers, and he doesn't know what he is doing every day.

But Suye only let Luo calmly approach him, and no one would do this kind of thing if he didn't do it.

"The prostitute said that Ms. Kong has moved in with her maid, and everything is satisfactory so far."

After listening to Luo Congrong's return, Suye smiled, "It's as long as she is satisfied."

Luo couldn't help but said calmly: "Young master, what you did is too obvious. For a person like Miss Kong... who has a keen mind, it won't take long to find out that it's you, right?"

Su Ye was not worried: "So what if she finds out, can she return the house to me?"

Based on Suye's understanding of Kong Linglong, of course not.

Luo was calm and speechless, but he had learned the previous lesson and said everything: "The matchmaker wanted to send some strong servants to Ms. Kong, who were also arranged by the young master, but Ms. Kong refused. She didn't want There are men in the house."

Su Ye was surprised at first, then a smile flashed across her eyes.

It is indeed Linglong's style not to like having men in the house.

Su Ye thought about it: "The dark guards are still there, you find two top-notch martial artists to guard around the house, don't disturb their lives, but ensure safety."

Luo Congrong thought that he should try to persuade him again: "Young Master, the security of Jiqing Street has always been very good, not to mention that Miss Kong lives in your house. You should reconsider using the hidden guards."

After all, the dark guard belonged to Su Ye, but he was going to protect a woman from outside. I'm afraid no dark guard had ever accepted such a task from his master.

Suye tapped his fingers on the table, and when he thought about it, he would be like this: "The reason why I use hidden guards is of course that they are hidden and safe. You did a good job before, or are you willing to go by yourself?"

Luo Congrong really didn't expect to burn himself on fire again, this is the first time, can the young master still be a little rational.

The meaning of "Dark Guard Security" means that the mouth is tight, not revealed, coupled with high skill, from the protected and the protected, everything is perfectly safe.

After hearing what Su Ye meant, Luo Congrong said quietly, "This subordinate will go find...the two with the highest martial arts."

It is enough to protect the emperor, but it turned out that the overtalent was used to protect Kong Linglong.But Luo Congrong knew that the dark guards would not have anything to say, their spirit was to carry out the mission, protecting everyone was the same, and the dark guards under Su Ye had not been active for a long time.

Crossing Wutiao Street near Jiqing Street, there is a silk and satin shop. It opened a silk and satin shop in the capital, and the Kong family has strong qualifications. Before the accident, this silk and satin shop could be regarded as a place full of wealth.

Kong Linglong filtered through the remaining shops, and chose the silk and satin shop that was still breathing.

The silk and satin village was exposed by the nobles as selling fake products. Once it was spread among the noble circles, its reputation was immediately ruined.

This is another way of slandering Baishanzhuang for selling fake medicines. The way is not new, but it counts the weakness of foreign merchants who have no one to rely on.

After resting in the mansion for two days, Kong Linglong saw that the maids were full of energy, so she began to order: "Starting today, go to the silk and satin shop."

Stretching silk and satin village, the name is a bit of a mouthful, but it also has a lot of history.In the first year, this Zhuangzi was opened, and it gained a firm foothold in the capital.

The two maids had been ready for battle, and immediately got into the carriage with Kong Linglong, and went straight to the main street of the silk and satin village.

Silk and satin village is indeed on a relatively prosperous street, and there are many people coming and going around, but when you reach the gate of silk and satin village, there is no need to doubt that it must belong to the Kong family.

Because in front of this gate, it is the same as Baishanzhuang in the past, with people coming and going around, and there are few shops in front of it.

Kong Linglong immediately jumped out of the carriage with Yu'er's support, and walked directly towards the silk and satin village.

There was a bored guy leaning against the door, seeing Kong Linglong walking straight towards the silk and satin shop, his eyes were as bright as stars: "This lady..."

Kong Linglong didn't make a detour this time, and asked, "Shopkeeper Wu Satin Zhuang, is there?"

Seeing that the other person was looking for the boss, the guy hesitated for a long time, "The boss has something to do at home today, so he's not in the shop."

Kong Linglong said, "Go and invite him."

The attitude of coming and going was straightforward, and the guy was in a state of confusion, naturally he didn't know if he really wanted to invite him.

Kong Linglong took the jade pendant from her waist, but seeing that the waiter didn't quite understand, she said coldly, "Tell you shopkeeper, I'll wait for him here."
