Businessman Shu Kongru stood in front of the county government office. Wangcai, his attendant, followed his master cautiously. His master gave him this name, hoping that he would be able to 'prosper wealth' with him, but he felt that his master's move at this time was to make money.

Turn his 'prosperous wealth' into 'dead wealth'.

Wangcai stood in front of the gate of the county government office, peeking around from time to time, fearing that a group of government officials would suddenly rush out of the county government office and throw all of them into prison.

Behind the two masters and servants were eight more servants. These eight servants seemed not to protect their safety, but to take care of the group of chirping and ragged children behind them.

After the children arrived here, they all looked around curiously. They felt that the roads here were really wide and the streets were so clean. They were completely different from the places they had stayed before, and they felt like a fairyland on earth.

More than 500 children are chatting and discussing with each other without controlling the volume. How can they not make a thunderous noise?

The eight people who looked after them tried to comfort the refugee children several times and signaled them to be silent, but they were unable to do so.

These refugee-looking children are all as skinny as wood, with black and blue complexions, and have frostbite on their hands, face, and feet. The oldest is only about ten years old, and the youngest is only about three years old. The older ones take care of the younger ones, and they look very pitiful.

The surrounding people also gathered to watch and pointed at these refugee-looking children.

"How pitiful! There are so many little babies, all frozen like this!"

"Who is that person standing at the front? What does he do? Why do he have so many children? These children are all children of refugees?" an old woman asked the young man next to her.

"I heard that the leader is here to sell people." The young man told the old woman who asked the question what he knew.

"Who are you selling to? Are you selling these children?" the old woman frowned.

"Are these children too young? What can they do?" A man listened to their discussion and came over to ask.

A water porter also came over to discuss: "I guess this person must have heard about our Lord Lin's loyalty and righteousness, and thinking of our Lord Lin's benevolence and righteousness, he wanted to sell all these children to him so that these children can be used in the future."

I came here only when I had enough to eat and a way to survive."

When the people around him heard what the porter said, they all showed expressions of enlightenment.

I couldn't help but respect and admire the young merchant who was the leader, but also felt a little bit resentful.

What I respect and admire is this man's boldness, he actually dares to use his body to force the "official master" to buy someone.

The complaint is that although this person is doing good things, Mr. Lin is not an evil official who preys on the people, but a good official who works for the benefit of the people.

If you buy these dolls that cannot be lifted by the shoulders or lifted by the hands, with more than 500 mouths, not to mention clothing and housing, but just the daily food consumption, it is not a small sum. What can these dolls do because they are still small?

What can be done about this matter? Doesn't this pose a problem for people? What should Mr. Lin use to raise it? It doesn't matter whether he takes it or not.

It's one thing that these common people like to watch the excitement, but they also have a dimension of thinking about problems. If they don't have big cleverness, they definitely have little cleverness. They can't help but keep silent and sit back and see how the next step will develop.

"Master, do you really want to forcefully sell these refugee children to County Magistrate Lin here?" Wangcai was really scared.

The word "official" refers to a person who eats people without spitting out their bones. How can anyone really care about the people? The master did this very rashly.

Although Shu Kongru stood at the gate of the county government office with a smile on his face, his heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface. As a businessman, if he wanted to grow bigger and make money, there was an element of gambling in it.

Shu Kongru is undoubtedly a gambler. It depends on whether the magistrate of Hexian County really loves the people as his own son as rumored.

Shu Kongru was a native of Hu County, Shifang County, Qingzhou. He was born into a merchant family. Although his family had a huge fortune, he still could not reach the threshold of aristocratic family, so he was called a "poor family of common people" by the world.

Therefore, all the heads of the Shu family have been obsessed with renovating their homes throughout their lives.

Although Shu Kongru was the legitimate son of his family, he loved literature more than doing business.

But he suffered from the fact that his family had no foundation, and there were no heirloom books to learn from. Therefore, he often worked as a humble servant in the homes of some low-income families, offering gold, silver and other gifts in order to learn a little bit of knowledge.

Shu Kongru seemed to be obsessed with it. In order to borrow one or two books from those aristocratic families who had nothing but empty shells, he not only spent money like water, but sometimes even met people who were stubborn and unmoved by money.

Pass it over.

When Shu Kongru acted like this, the world and his family looked at him as a weirdo, wondering why he did this? Wasn't he willing to humble himself and compare himself to a slave?

Because of Shu Kongru's behavior, he was the legitimate son of the family, but he was not loved by his father who was the head of the family. The old man in the family was very ashamed of him.

The Shu family has wanted to change their family and join the ranks of aristocratic families for a long time. How can an heir with such a disgraceful appearance really become successful?

Three years ago, Shu Kongru's father made his displeasure obvious.

He openly began to deprive Shu Kongru of his inheritance rights in the family as his legitimate son, and support his concubine. Due to the constraints of etiquette and law, his father could not do this directly.

The head of the Shu family thought of a roundabout way, giving him and his younger brother one hundred thousand gu each, and letting them travel to various states to do business. After two years, they would return home. Whoever made the most money would be the next heir of the family.

The head of the Shu family euphemistically called it a test, but in fact he had already made plans to help his younger brother in private.

How could Shu Kongru not understand? Dang Ji sneered and left the house with one hundred thousand pieces of money.

Since his father didn't want to entrust Shu Kongru with the Shu family's wealth, he didn't want it!
