Chapter 186: Cunning Woman
“You’re here again.”
As soon as he heard footsteps, Cheng Yu looked back and saw Jin Weiwei with a faint smile.
“That’s right, some people are already in jail.”
Jin Weiwei said grumpily. In fact, if she didn’t pursue this matter and made a random reason, Cheng Yu would come out, but Cheng Yu didn’t want to do so.
“Now that my Food Store is open, you should come out, right?”
Un, Cheng Yu just shook his head and said, “It should be more chaotic outside now, right?” I think that aside from being free, it is much better than the scheme against each other outside.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Jin Weiwei looked up at him. She always felt that Cheng Yu had something in his words, as if he was scheming something.
Under the suspicion in her heart, Jin Weiwei felt that she was a little worried. Wasn’t her life very good now?
Even if there were people in Food Store who were messing around, she would still be able to take care of them.
“Mr. Cheng is indeed a smart person. He knows to hide, but now the most annoying person has become me.”
Jin Weiwei smiled helplessly.
Cheng Yu’s eyes flashed and he asked, “Are you trying to enter the Chamber of Commerce in Lin Shui County?”
Jin Weiwei nodded. She really wanted to enter. Once she entered the Chamber of Commerce, the store could be protected by the Chamber of Commerce. Water transport was much safer than it was now. Besides, she wanted to go to Ye City. With the backing of the Lin County Conglomerate, she could better stand by.
“That’s right, now that business is so dangerous, I have to find a tree to catch a cold, right?”
Jin Weiwei said half-jokingly. Although this was a joke, it was true that even Cheng Yu laughed.
“I see that you seem worried, but what kind of trouble did you encounter?”
Cheng Yu looked at Jin Weiwei as she smiled, but his brows were frowning from time to time.
“It’s alright. It’s all a small matter, but when are you coming out?”
Jin Weiwei thought about it and felt that it was better not to talk to Cheng Yu about this matter, but she couldn’t help. Ever since little Rich left, she didn’t even have a person who could talk and have ideas.
As soon as she thought about little Rich, Jin Weiwei felt a little sad. Her heart was sore, as if she had suffered a great grievance. She clearly said that she had only been there for a period of time. How long had it been?
Men are indeed liars!
“Alright, I’ve also given it to you. My friend’s love is here, so I’m leaving.”
Jin Weiwei stood up and Cheng Yu looked up. He smiled warmly but saw some grievance in her eyes.
It was as if a feather had fallen in his heart. It was neither light nor heavy, but it always made him feel uncomfortable. He didn’t know if he was doing this. If Jin Weiwei knew about it, she would have lost her friendship with him.
The corner of his mouth couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Perhaps he shouldn’t have dreamed of having anything to do with Jin Weiwei. He was a businessman who did everything from the perspective of interests.
Even though Jin Weiwei liked money, she had a lot more morals than him. He… should he go out?
Jin Weiwei who left wasn’t as much as Cheng Yu thought. Perhaps she didn’t think of certain aspects.
However, she hadn’t left the county yamen yet, so the servants serving Wang Hai came to invite her, saying that Zhixian had invited her.
Jin Weiwei frowned slightly. Why did she think there was nothing good about Wang Hai calling her over?
“Lord Zhixian.”
Jin Weiwei bowed but saw that Wang Hai’s expression was more serious than ever.
“Sit down.”
Wang Hai looked at the chair beside him and Jin Weiwei sat down.
Looking at Jin Weiwei’s trusting and confused eyes, Wang Hai suddenly couldn’t say anything. No matter how powerful Jin Weiwei was, she was still young.
But when she thought about how this matter was not handled well, not to mention that his family was not safe, even Jin Weiwei would be implicated.
Thinking of this, Wang Hai’s guilt became lighter.
“Did Lord Wang encounter something difficult and need the help of the little lady?”
As soon as she saw Wang Hai’s frown, Jin Weiwei guessed that this was probably related to her. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have invited her.
“Madam Jin, do you know that this morning, the food cart brought by the court was robbed and burned?”
Hearing this, Jin Weiwei’s eyes widened. She didn’t need to threaten her and knew the seriousness of the matter.
“What can I help with this?”
Jin Weiwei frowned. Wang Hai couldn’t possibly want her to take out all the food!
No way, it was planted by the people in the manor. How could they give it away? Although they knew that it was a rescue, being a big enemy was not good enough, no one would feel better.
Sure enough, Wang Hai said with a troubled expression, “Madam Jin, you also know that you have today’s results, and you still have to spend some time in this county. When your Food Store opens, I’m sure there must be a lot of food to store, you can’t be…”
Jin Weiwei raised her head and saw Wang Hai raising her eyebrows slightly. She felt a silent threat.
There was something she said was her favorite mode of interaction. The thing she hated the most was this kind of tyrant.
“Milord, I have a method. May I know whether you’ll listen or not?”
She, Jin Weiwei, was neither a good person nor an evil person. She was just an ordinary person.
Wang Hai raised his eyebrows and unconsciously took out the momentum of a superior, “Oh?” What method do you have?
“Milord, look, if I’m the only one in Linshui County to donate food to the government, it would be obvious that I want to take all the credit into my hands. Besides, I’m supported by the adults, so it’s inevitable that some people say that the adults only care about their own people, which makes other rice noodles unhappy.”
Jin Weiwei smiled, revealing two little canine teeth. Wang Hai squinted his eyes.
This Jin Weiwei was really a smart person. If it were anyone else, her expression would be bad.
However, not only did Jin Weiwei not change her face, she even said it was a good thing.
“Oh?” Does the businesses in Lin Shui County want to donate?
Seeing Wang Hai’s cooperation, Jin Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief, afraid that Wang Hai would not cooperate.
“That’s right. Didn’t Your Lordship say just now that all the merchants who donated food will enter a manual and engrave it on the minister’s tablet in Lin Shui County. They also have to book it to the capital city and tell the emperor how much each family has donated. At that time, the emperor will praise him greatly. Who won’t do such a good thing?”
Jin Weiwei’s words were loud and there was no chance for Wang Hai to refuse.
Wang Hai gritted his teeth. At this moment, he wanted to pry Jin Weiwei’s heart. Did he say something like that earlier?
A sly woman!
“Jin Weiwei, if the Emperor doesn’t appreciate it, your life will be ruined!”
Wang Hai lowered his voice and finally revealed an angry expression.
Jin Weiwei pressed down her sweaty palms and smiled confidently, “Of course, the Emperor can’t praise this achievement. What if the merchants in Shui County still donate money?” What about hundreds of thousands of taels?
What?
Wang Hai was stunned and looked at Jin Weiwei in disbelief, “Do you have a way?”
Jin Weiwei nodded. Of course, everyone should enjoy such a good thing.
She was sure that the food robbery must be related to some people in Lin Shui County.
