Confucius businesswoman: proud of the world

Chapter 38 Volunteering
Liu Liangyue cried out in shame. In front of Mrs. Liu, she did not conceal the malice she felt in the restaurant at all, and vented it out heartily.

Mrs. Liu had a cold face: "Who told you to go to a place like a restaurant with a few girls? What would others think if my eldest lady of the Liu family ran to a place like that?"

Liu Liangyue's eyes were covered with tears, but she still said bitterly: "I am the eldest lady of the Liu family, why should I be wronged like this because of Kong Linglong? I can't celebrate my birthday, and I can't enjoy going to a restaurant!"

Thinking of this, Liu Liangyue felt even more ashamed and indignant towards Mrs. Liu.She, she actually had an unreasonable delusion towards that man!
When the man revealed his identity, Liu Liangyue wished he could get into the hole at that moment!
None of this can be told to Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu only hated iron but steel: "You know that the whole family is unhappy because of that lowly merchant woman, and you don't think about it before doing things. Since you are the daughter of the Liu family, why bother to talk to Kong Yu?" People at home are so knowledgeable?!"

Mrs. Liu had already heard about what happened in the restaurant, including the appearance of the man named Su Ye. At that time, the whole restaurant was deadlocked because of the man's words, and the man walked away after speaking.

Liu Liangyue felt ashamed and indignant as it should be, after all, a well-educated woman would feel ashamed if she met such a man in public.

Mrs. Liu had no choice but to soften her voice: "It's over and it's over, and you don't have to worry about it. It's only Kong Linglong who is ashamed of that man's ostentation. Maybe it's a good thing, and it will make everyone else feel ashamed." Look, what kind of tutor is her daughter of the Confucian family! What kind of background is her Confucian family!"

Liu Liangyue couldn't calm down at all when she thought of that face that looked like a man in Beijing.Why, why would such a man condescend to the Kong family and become Kong Linglong's "plaything"?She is not reconciled!

But no matter how unwilling she was, she could only do this, Liu Liangyue finished crying and left Madam Liu, leaving Madam Liu gnashing her teeth alone.

Kong Linglong is really the evil star of her Liu family.

……

Kong Wei dealt with the fellows who had signed and pledged anxiously. Seeing that the government seemed to be serious, these fellows could no longer calm down and came to Kong Wei to ask for an explanation.

A clerk said: "Master Kong, if you don't withdraw the complaint at this time, the government will really investigate. We can't afford this crime!"

Kong Wei patiently explained: "Now that the petition has been handed in, and the grandparents of the two counties have already taken over, it is impossible to just withdraw it now."

A clerk hissed: "We are the ones who dare to sign and pledge. In the end, when something happens, the government will only arrest us if they want to arrest them. Doesn't shopkeeper Kong think of a way for the brothers?"

Kong Weicai told Zhu Bajie that he was not a human being in the mirror. After all, he was following Kong Yaoguang's orders. In order to appease these guys, the remaining 1000 taels of gold in his hand were divided equally, but now there is nothing good.

Kong Wei endured the headache and said, "You are worrying too much. It is impossible for this matter to reach the level you said, and it is impossible for the government to actually come to arrest people."

A clerk eagerly asked: "How can shopkeeper Kong be sure that he won't? I heard that the waterway has been surrounded by officers and soldiers, and the county magistrate Wang is spreading the word to the end, saying that he will investigate thoroughly. Who are the brothers?" Can you still be safe?"

As soon as these words fell, several guys who were calm at first suddenly changed their colors.

Kong Wei's lips were dry and he couldn't appease these guys, so he could only wave his hands and said: "You guys wait for two more days, Brother Kong San and I will definitely come up with a solution!"

At the moment he hurriedly went to find Kong Yaoguang, Kong Yaoguang felt impetuous when he heard his words, since he implemented this strategy, except for the smoothness of the day, he suffered repeated setbacks afterwards, how could he not let him feel bitter with hatred.

Kong Wei didn't care about etiquette any more, he cupped his hands and said, "Third brother, hurry up and get your attention, it will only be more troublesome if you procrastinate!"

The hearts of those guys are fluctuating now, and they are most afraid that if someone can't bear it and runs to the county government, then everything will be over.

Kong Yaoguang also tossed and turned that night and didn't sleep at all. He kept thinking about countermeasures, but if the countermeasures were easy to think of, he wouldn't be so distressed.

He looked at Kong Wei: "If it's not possible, send a message to Liu Ah Si first, asking him to put a load of salt first, and we'll replenish him after the storm passes."

This is also the only way out, if Liu Ahsi agrees to exchange Xiong San from the county government with a boatload of salt, the matter will be settled temporarily.

Kong Wei was anxious: "Although it seems possible to do this, no one knows when the government will evacuate people. Today, I heard a news that the young master... plans to negotiate with the government of the two places, so that the waterway can pass by. For the safety of the merchants, I implore the two counties to send troops to stay on the coast for a long time to ensure the safety of the people."

"What?!" Kong Yaoguang was about to burst into tears, and didn't want to believe what he heard, but Kong Wei looked even more distressed, apparently even more unwilling to believe it than him.

Kong Wei continued: "Besides, third brother, because of the government's intervention, Liu Ah Si already has a lot of distrust for us. Even if we pass on a message to him, it's hard to say whether he is willing to follow through. After all, he only has a cargo in hand. After that, he is not sure whether he can earn it back, and with his charismatic temperament, he is afraid that he will lose all his money, so he may not be willing to listen to us!"

This is really true, Kong Yaoguang has dealt with Liu Ah Si for so many years, he knows that these thieves have no friendship to talk about, if you let him give up the benefits he has obtained, it will be as difficult as climbing the sky.

But Kong Yaoguang couldn't think of anything else to do, he clenched his hands into fists and wished he could smash through them.

Kong Wei looked worried, and said, "Third Brother, if it really doesn't work, how about..."

Kong Wei really didn't have the guts to say the following, but he knew that Kong Yaoguang should have thought of this in his heart.

Kong Yaoguang's eyes seemed to be able to eat people: "You want us to give up the nine salt boats in our hands? Let this plan be completely in vain?!"

Kong Wei trembled for a moment, he didn't want to take this step, but if he was still holding on to the boat in his hand, he might lose everything by then, and it was still light, and he might be able to put himself in it.

Kong Wei said: "Third brother, if you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood. If the government pulls us out this time, it will not be worth the candle."

Kong Yaoguang should be able to tell which is more important than what is important, and don't ruin the good days in the next few decades just for the sake of mere nine boats.

Kong Yaoguang's expression was extremely gloomy, Kong Wei wanted to persuade him more, but he could only give up.But Kong Yaoguang has been running his own business for so many years, and he should know how to sometimes abandon his pawns to save his car and his car to save his handsome man.

Kong Yaoguang said coldly: "I still don't believe that such a yellow-haired girl like Kong Linglong can come up with such a watertight plan. There must be someone behind her to guide her."

In the past, he would think of Mr. Kong, but Mr. Kong has passed away. Now, who else is beside Kong Linglong?

Kong Wei's heart moved, and he slowly looked at Kong Yaoguang: "Isn't it the so-called 'marriage' man who made a lot of noise a while ago?"

The two of them thought about this, and they were desperately thinking about it. Kong Yaoguang's eyes flashed, and then his brows were tightly frowned.He thought of the figure he saw in the Confucian mansion, his fists were creaking, that, the man?
Suye didn't seem to know that she had been regarded by Kong Yaoguang and the others as the person behind the scenes. He could only say that Kong Yaoguang bore the name of a third uncle, but he didn't know his niece at all. Kong Linglong didn't need anyone when she came to this day. Instructing behind the scenes, his own planning and means are enough to deal with all the troubles of the Kong family shop.

This is purely Kong Yaoguang's unwillingness to admit that he lost to a girl who didn't make it, and the grievances in his heart.

Lord Wang of Xianyang County sent a letter to Kong Linglong, and Kong Linglong opened it immediately to read it. In the letter, Lord Wang said that it is his duty to maintain the peace of the waterway, and he is willing to send troops all year round to guard both sides of the waterway.

Yu'er laughed and said, "Miss is willing to pay for it by herself, and is responsible for the expenses of sending troops to garrison every year. If this is to be spread, it is another matter for Miss to benefit the common people."

Kong Linglong folded the letter. Originally, this matter was a meritorious deed. The two counties shirked it earlier because they were afraid of causing trouble.But how could the two county magistrates be unwilling to do this kind of thing that adds glory to their performance.

Moreover, the money comes from the Kong family, and the good reputation is carried by the two county magistrates. This kind of good deed that only earns but not loses, neither Mr. Li in Yecheng nor Mr. Wang, who is waiting for a nine-year term and looking forward to a promotion in performance, will not go out. push.

Sure enough, Mr. Wang sent a letter first to express his determination.

In her previous life, Kong Linglong already knew that if she wanted to do a good job in business and deal with the government, she must not be lazy.People in the world see merchants clearly and attach importance to gentry because merchants have money but no power. Only when they are blessed by power can they have a smooth business career.

If she had known this truth earlier, she would not have been tricked so badly by the Liu family in her previous life.

When the two county magistrates spread the news, the matter of the salt ship will come to an end.Kong Linglong's eyes were gloomy.

In the evening, Kong Yaoguang sent a letter to Kong Linglong without hesitation, and Kong Wei came to the door in person.

Kong Wei bowed his hands politely: "It's really inappropriate to come to disturb the young head at such a late hour, but Brother Kong San thought of a way, maybe it can help find the salt ship."

Kong Linglong didn't rest even late at night, as if she was waiting for it, she looked at Kong Wei after hearing the words: "Oh? What is the solution?"

Kong Wei looked directly at Kong Linglong: "Third Brother Kong said that ten salt ships are not a small number. If the water can be robbed, it is absolutely impossible to hide it. Therefore, it is very likely that the salt ship is still there. In the waters, it is just hidden in a place that is hidden from the eyes and ears, so it is not easy to be found."
