Confucius businesswoman: proud of the world

Chapter 161
Yu'er and Fu Ling also followed from behind and surrounded Kong Linglong. The young man seemed to have been bitten by a snake once, and when he saw someone surrounding the shop, he subconsciously wanted to find fault.

"You, what are you doing here? I'm the only guy in charge of this silk and satin shop. If I leave, what will happen to this shop?"

The boy retorted boldly.

Yu'er glanced at Kong Linglong and said, "Don't you know who owns the silk and satin shop?"

Even if you are a newcomer and don't know the Kong family's jade pendant token, you should know who is behind it.

Surprise flashed across the boy's face: "Yes, it's the Kong family, what do you want to do?!"

The little guy seemed to think that they were here to find fault. Similar conversations had happened before, and when they found out that it was the Kong family shop, the unlucky days of the silk and satin village began.

Yu'er went on to say: "The one standing in front of you is the eldest lady of our Kong family, hurry up and invite shopkeeper Wu over, and tell him the truth that the eldest lady has arrived!"

The guy seemed to be hit by a thunderbolt, he couldn't help blinking twice, Miss Kong family?
Kong Linglong looked at the clerk, her eyes were not intimidating, and she walked towards the silk and satin shop indifferently: "Go and call someone, I will guard the shop for you first."

Fu Ling stretched out her finger and waved in front of the stunned boy, blinking her eyes and said, "Not yet."

The boy seemed to have been stepped on, he turned his head to look at Kong Linglong frequently, and then ran away.

Entering the silk and satin shop, the desolation inside really hits the face, the arrangement of silk and satin is messy, and some corners are still stained with dust.If Kong Linglong were a customer, she would not want to enter this shop.

Yu'er gasped and said: "It seems that shopkeeper Wu is planning to smash the pot."

It's not good to describe her shop like this, Yu'er coughed dryly, and continued to find a chair in the shop, intending to move it for Kong Linglong.

But Kong Linglong stopped her. She walked around the spacious silk shop, looking carefully at the scenes around her. This silk shop can still be opened now. No, it should be said that it is pretending to be open, but it is actually no different from closing the door.

The shopkeeper and the waiters all looked sleepy, and they didn't even maintain the basic cleanliness of the shop.

Shopkeepers can be disheartened and feel that the store cannot be saved, but let it go, and even refuse to bother to maintain the decency of the store, which is another meaning.

Kong Linglong's eyes were colder than when he came in. At that time, Baishanzhuang had no customers for several months. Dr. Xu still cleaned the medical hall and prepared sufficient medicinal materials. That's what the shopkeeper of the Kong family should be like.

Taking advantage of this time, Kong Linglong had some calculations in her mind.

About an hour later, the sun was rising outside, and even Yu'er began to mutter: "The guy just said that the shopkeeper lives not far away, why didn't he come here until now."

If they didn't come, of course they didn't want to come, or didn't want to come so soon. The guy thought they were looking for trouble, and maybe the shopkeeper thought the same.Even this silk and satin shop, it seems that they don't want to stay anymore.

But not long after Yu'er spoke, a sweaty young man finally appeared at the door. The man looked up and saw that the three girls were still waiting here.The cheeks couldn't help turning redder. Seeing his flushed cheeks, Yu'er was surprised, and subconsciously thought for a moment that he had been gone for so long without calling the shopkeeper.

But Kong Linglong looked past him, and saw a fat middle-aged man following behind the boy.

The man's face was also flushed from the sun, but when he entered the door and saw the three women inside, he was suddenly stunned.

It seemed that he didn't expect that what the boy said was true.

The little boy glanced at him slowly, and seemed a little at a loss.He was also scolded for being able to invite the big shopkeeper.How could people from the Kong family come here in their leisure time?

The fat man, that is, the shopkeeper of Zhuang Wu, satin, looked suspiciously at the three girls, and finally his eyes fell on Kong Linglong, "You?"

Kong Linglong untied the jade pendant on her waist again, and lifted it up in front of Shopkeeper Wu.

The effect received this time was very real, and a bead of sweat dripped down from the side of shopkeeper Wu's face: "It turns out that you are really the young master. Look at me, Qiu Sheng, hurry up and make tea, hurry up!"

The little guy just woke up like a dream, and hurriedly dared to make tea. He didn't know his identity before, so of course he didn't dare to act rashly.

Shopkeeper Wu wiped off his sweat again, looked at Kong Linglong, and smiled dryly: "I have heard that the eldest lady has succeeded as the head of the family, but I never thought that the eldest lady is younger than the villain thought."

This kind of polite words are really a bit hypocritical, and you can't tell much sincerity. Kong Linglong doesn't care about others' compliments, but this boss Wu obviously asked her to stay after seeing the situation in the silk and satin village just now. Good first impression.

Kong Linglong's gaze didn't stay on shopkeeper Wu's face. Except for the first glance when he entered the door, now he has been staring at every aspect of the silk shop: "Treasurer Wu, what's going on?"

Shopkeeper Wu hurriedly said: "Well, you don't know, the business in the store has been hit hard in the past few months. Old customers and new customers don't come to the door at once. The villain also wants to manage it, but there is really no way."

He was just a shopkeeper, and he couldn't force him to bind customers if he didn't come to the door. Shopkeeper Wu had already decided to discuss the matter as it stood, obviously he didn't feel that he had made any mistakes.

Kong Linglong held her temper, and knocked her hand on a table covered with spider webs: "The customer didn't come to the door, isn't shopkeeper Wu himself in the shop?"

Just now, the little boy said nonsense that the shopkeeper was not here today because of something at home. From this point of view, it may not be a day or two since shopkeeper Wu has something to do at home.

Shopkeeper Wu rarely showed embarrassment on his face, but then covered it up: "Young master, to tell you the truth, it's not that the villain is not dedicated. In the past few months, because of bad business, the guy who was originally in charge of cleaning has left several times. Everything else is gone, look at my shop, there is only one guy guarding us now."

Both Yu'er and Fuling looked at Kong Linglong. Fortunately, the first stop they went to was Baishanzhuang, otherwise they might not have had a good start.

Shopkeeper Wu is naughty and not as upright as Dr. Xu.

Kong Linglong looked at him and saw that shopkeeper Wu's face was flushed, it was still under the sun just now, other than that, he didn't show much worry or fear.

What happened to the Kong family shop was caused by external disasters and objective reasons, so even if the silk and satin shop and the other [-] closed shops have reached the point where they are today, as the shopkeeper himself, there is no need to take this responsibility, shopkeeper Wu He was in the capital, and he opened a rich silk and satin shop, and there were many distinguished guests coming and going. Obviously, he was different from Dr. Xu's simple and honest doctor, and he had already cultivated to become a fine man.

For these objective reasons, if Kong Linglong took his anger out on him, it would be a bit of a fuss.

Kong Linglong didn't say anything more, and said to Shopkeeper Wu: "Please trouble the shopkeeper to show me the account books during this period."

Even if the business has reached this point, the account books should be recorded honestly, and this requirement is not considered fault finding.

Shopkeeper Wu hurriedly smiled: "Yes, Master Shao sit down and have a sip of tea, I'll go get it right away."

After reading the account book, like Baishanzhuang, it has been blank for the past three months, and there is basically nothing to read.As for the past, this silk and satin shop has already said that it has the right time, place and people, and it is also profitable every year.

So shopkeeper Wu stood beside him, more calm.

Kong Linglong closed the account book: "Shopkeeper Wu, I will come to the shop to help from tomorrow, I hope you at least tidy up the shop today, whether there are any guests is one thing, but if there are guests, come in and see the spider webs all over the place. Dust, I don’t want to look at it even after thinking about it, you think so.”

Shopkeeper Wu also knew to go down the steps, and said, "Young master, do you want to stay? I don't know how long you will stay. Do you need a villain to find an inn for you?"

This opening is divided into high and low. This shopkeeper Wu is a fat man who runs a silk and satin shop. He is full of jewels and his family must be very rich. However, he is only superficial to Kong Linglong. Compared with Dr. Xu's sincere worry, that is really true. Can't compare.

There was a faint smile on Kong Linglong's face: "Don't bother, I've already prepared a place to stay when I come, and I'll bring the girls over when the door opens tomorrow."

One night is enough to clean up.

Shopkeeper Wu hurriedly said: "Young man, let's prepare with my buddy, and I will definitely welcome the young master tomorrow."

Kong Linglong took the girl into the carriage and walked away. Shopkeeper Wu stood at the door thoughtfully, and then the boy dared to step forward: "Shopkeeper, is it really... the eldest lady in charge?"

He still couldn't believe it, but the demeanor just now, she was obviously a young girl, but she seemed to be reprimanding their shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Wu turned around: "Go, go, hurry up and clean up."

-

You can't ask everyone to be as nice as Dr. Xu, but shopkeeper Wu is really disappointing.Fu Ling said softly: "Miss also wants to start the business of silk and satin village first?"

Do it to attract attention, and the eyes from Baishanzhuang will be brought over.

But seeing that Kong Linglong didn't speak, Yu'er reckoned that she was not satisfied with the silk and satin shop this time, and said, "Miss, before shopkeeper Wu's accident, the silk and satin shop was still making a lot of money."

Yu'er probably guessed that this shopkeeper Wu is not very good, maybe he still has some business skills.

Kong Linglong glanced at the silk and satin shop: "He can make a profit, not because he is better than others, but because he happened to be assigned to this shop."

In the bustling street, with the financial resources of the Confucian family, the silk and satin are all high-quality, and it doesn't take much effort to achieve a beautiful book effect.

If shopkeeper Wu knew that it was okay to be modest, but with his performance just now, he obviously thought that his achievements were good.

Kong Linglong put down the curtain, her face was a little calm.

In fact, in normal times, shopkeepers like shopkeeper Wu are at most a bit of an eyesore, and there will be no big disturbances.It's just that the Kong family in the capital is currently experiencing continuous wind and rain. At this time, what is most needed is a big shopkeeper who has responsibility and ability. This kind of person is likely to save the Kong family.

Kong Linglong suddenly remembered Zhao Zhuoying, the head of the Long'an Escort Bureau who was in prison.

This righteous man who was sealed in the Escort, would rather take the lead than protect the safety of his brothers.

Kong Linglong sighed for him in her heart.

-

Luo calmly accepted the note from the secret guard on the pigeon's leg, without reading it himself, and directly forwarded it to Suye.

Suye is waiting for this every day now, and those who don't know think that he has been secretly assigned some kind of imperial envoy and is secretly investigating.

"Linglong really went to another shop owned by the Kong family." Su Ye pursed her thin lips, and said for a moment, "She just wanted to use this method to lure out Jin Yiwei who framed the Kong family from behind."

Luo Congrong didn't answer this question, because it was already obvious that when she was in Xianyang, this Miss Kong acted boldly and dared to provoke anyone, and she looked like she would fight you desperately without cutting her body.

At the beginning, Luo Congrong secretly gave a description, "those who are tough are afraid of being violent, and those who are too violent are afraid of death."

Running to the capital, messing with the daughter of the governor's mansion, selling medicine to the brothel, and going to trouble with Jin Yiwei, is not to die.

Fortunately, when she was in Xianyang, she had a smooth journey, as if there were auspicious clouds above her head, but this is the capital city, so there are not a few auspicious clouds covering the head of any nobleman?
Luo calmly thought about it, and then said slowly: "Actually, according to my subordinates' understanding of Situ Xueyi, he suffered a disadvantage in Xianyang, and it is his usual style to kick down the Kong's shop in the capital to vent his anger. However, if Ms. Kong Ansheng stayed in Xianyang, at most, the Kong family's shop in the capital could not continue to open, it should be unlucky, and this matter may not be let alone."

But Kong Linglong wanted to intervene at this time, and she was going to be at odds with Jin Yiwei and Situ Xueyi. When her appearance was heard by Situ Xueyi, Jin Yiwei, what was the difference between her appearance and death?
Luo Congrong was not a gentle man, he was able to speak so tactfully without directly saying that Kong Linglong was trying to die, it was already giving face to the young master Suye.

Su Ye looked at him: "What you said may happen to other people, but Linglong watched her Kong family members being implicated in death or injury, she would not live in Xianyang safely even if she said nothing."

Luo Congrong stopped talking. Everyone in this world wants to be a good person, but if they can go all out and have the ability to do it to the end, he admits that even men may not be able to do it. Kong Linglong is a girl who refuses to admit defeat. Perhaps, this Is it the reason why the young master was really moved by her?

Anyway, he is a man who has not been emotional, so he is not qualified to express his opinion.

Su Ye read the note a few times, and said with a frown: "You send people to guard Baishanzhuang and that Doctor Xu, if someone bumps into him, no matter which side he is from, tell the secret guards to keep an eye on it. "

It's easy to hide from the open spears, but hard to guard against the hidden arrows. Suye has always thought far and wide. He only hopes that he can help Linglong block these dark arrows from the dark, so that she can stand in the sun and fight for her Kong family with dignity.

Luo Congrong said pointedly: "Mrs. Bai of the Governor's Mansion is the younger sister of Concubine Bai in the palace. The concubine has always wanted to suggest a good marriage to her niece Hua Hongxiao so as to expand the influence of her relatives. Miss Kong's enemy, It's not just Situ's family and Jin Yiwei."

Suye looked at him slowly, the women in the capital, especially the women in the circle of noble women, became more and more jealous as they went up, their power was obtained by stepping on them, and the road was full of bones, many times they didn't know how they were kicked down.

Luo Congrong said quietly: "This subordinate is just guessing like this. Didn't the young master always think that Ms. Kong is an upright person, and she can use evil schemes to deal with those villains who covet the Kong family, but Ms. Kong is afraid of the secretive methods of these women in the capital?" I can't handle it."

In fact, after a long time, thinking back on this speculation, Luo Congrong realized that he had completely miscalculated Kong Linglong.

In fact, he can't be blamed for miscalculating, because Kong Linglong in the previous life was indeed, as he said, never sensitive to these methods between women.But she died in such filth in her previous life, and when she wakes up in this life, even though she still has such a bright and upright temperament, she has long been content with the bloody plots of these shady women, like watching a child's play.
