"Master, you have really done a good job, and everyone is very grateful to you. If it weren't for you, I don't know how many people would have died in the past two years!"
Runniang looked up at Jin Feng: "Although being a merchant girl is hard work, it is still a way to survive. Isn't it better than starving to death before?"
"Yeah, it's better than starving to death." Jin Feng nodded.
The hardest thing in life is to have no choice. Being a businessman is at least a way to survive.
Those girls who are not willing to surrender to fate can rely on this choice to survive and continue to fight against fate.
"In the past, there might have been people who criticized girls for doing business, but now Jinchuan Daily says every day that women hold up half the sky. We still have female workers and female escorts, and few people stop talking nonsense."
Runniang continued: "Currently, female traders are mainly in the Jinchuan area, and there are relatively few in other places, but I believe that there will be more and more female traders in the future!"
"Yes, in the past when merchants were running business, who wouldn't have his head tucked into his waistband? Now we have raided the bandits in Sichuan and Sichuan several times, and there are still bodyguards patrolling the official roads, and there are almost no traces of bandits anymore!"
Tie Zhui then said: "I also believe that there will be more and more female businessmen in the future."
"Master, this is all your fault!" Run Niang raised her head, her eyes full of admiration.
"Okay, if you praise me a few more times, I will float!"
Jin Feng scratched the tip of Runniang's nose: "What delicious food did you make?"
"I stewed the pheasant for you and fried the bamboo shoots. They are fresh. You, the boss, try them while they are hot."
Speaking of food, Runniang immediately became energetic and opened the lid of the small saucepan as if she was offering a treasure.
"It smells really good. Wow, it's stewed with wild ginseng. This is a great supplement!" Tie Zhui sniffed and winked at Jin Feng: "Sir, give me two pieces!"
If it were normal, Jin Feng would definitely give him some points now that Iron Hammer had spoken.
But Tie Hammer looked so mean now, and Jin Feng got angry when he saw it, kicked him, and got into the carriage with the tray.
Runniang followed in, took out a small bowl from the tray, and helped Jin Feng fill a bowl of chicken soup.
He tested the temperature and then said: "Master, it's warm. Drink it while it's hot. I'll call Feifei and Miss Mu Lan."
Zuo Feifei wanted to lead the troops, and although Qing Mulan was careless, she was still a young girl who had not left the palace, so neither of them took Jin Feng's carriage, but rode with the large army.
Runniang opened the curtain, but before she jumped down, she saw two people walking over together.
"Run Niang, you didn't even call us or me after cooking. You are such a forgetful guy. When you have a man, you forget about your sisters!" Qing Mulan joked.
"Sister Mu Lan, don't talk nonsense. I just brought the food over and was about to call you!"
Runniang's face was even thinner than Guan Xiaorou's, and she blushed when Qing Mulan said that.
But Qing Mulan didn't give up and deliberately grabbed Qing Mulan's chest when she got into the carriage.
Runniang's eyes suddenly widened and she almost burst into tears.
"Ahem, Qing Mulan, don't go too far, teasing my wife in front of me!"
Jin Feng glanced at Qing Mulan angrily: "If you bully Runniang again, believe it or not, I will pay you double the amount!"
"I think it's okay!"
Zuo Feifei rubbed her hands and looked at Qing Mulan.
Qing Mulan didn't expect retribution to come so quickly, so she quickly gave in: "Run Niang, Run Niang, I was wrong!"
There was no way, there were four people on the carriage, three of them were in a group, so if they really started to fight, she was no match for them.
You can't call me Mei because of this, right?
"That's pretty much it!"
Jin Feng picked up his chopsticks and motioned for several people to sit down and eat.
After lunch, the team set off again. As the sun set, they saw an inn in the distance.
Iron Hammer drove his horse to the carriage and asked outside the window: "Sir, ahead is our Inn No. 27. The next Inn is twenty miles away. I'm afraid we won't be able to get there before dark, otherwise we won't be able to get there tonight.
Just live here?"
Jin Feng opened the curtains and looked at the sun, nodded and said, "Then live here!"
"Okay," Tie Zhui agreed, turning to look at Zuo Feifei: "Mrs. Zuo, I'll leave this to you. I'll take people to the inn to have a look first!"
In fact, yesterday Jin Feng said he was going to Xichuan, so the Ninth Princess sent an escort out overnight to make the journey.
Under normal circumstances, the possibility of Jin Feng staying in this inn is more than 70%, so an escort came over early this morning to make arrangements.
But with Donghai's past experience, Tie Hammer didn't dare to be careless at all, and he had to bring someone to confirm again before he felt at ease.
Iron Hammer inspected it very carefully. When Jin Feng arrived at the door of the inn in a carriage, he had not yet come out.
Regarding his own safety, Jin Feng did not dare to be careless, so he sat in the carriage without getting out and even lowered the curtains.
After waiting for another ten minutes, Tie Hammer came out of the inn, trotted outside the carriage window and said: "Sir, I checked, there is nothing wrong with the backyard. Sir, you can get off the car."
Jin Feng then asked Runniang to open the carriage door and walk out.
In addition to the hammer, there was a row of people standing outside the carriage.
Jin Feng recognized from their uniforms that these people were the innkeepers and waiters.
When they saw Jin Feng, the shopkeeper and his waiters saluted together.
But what surprised Jin Feng was that behind the row of people, he also saw two acquaintances-Zhu Linglong and her mother Zhu Chen.
Jin Feng first waved to the shopkeeper and waiter, then looked at the mother and daughter with a smile: "Honey, Miss Linglong, why are you here?"
"Mr. Jin, have you forgotten that I am the boss of Jinchuan Inn!"
Zhu Chen said with a smile: "The official road No. 7 is open, and the inn here is about to open. I came to take a look. I was leaving this morning, but I heard that Mr. is coming today. I thought that I haven't seen Mr. for a long time.
I took the liberty to stay here, and I hope you won’t blame me sir!”
"What did you say? It's too late for me to be happy to see you!" Jin Feng smiled and waved his hand.
"Sir, you still know how to talk. Unlike this stinky girl Linglong, who doesn't know any etiquette. She doesn't even know how to say hello when she meets you!"
After Zhu Chen finished speaking, she pinched Zhu Linglong angrily.
"Didn't my mother finish speaking just now?"
Zhu Linglong murmured in a low voice and bowed slightly to Jin Feng: "Mr. Jin, long time no see!"
"It's been a long time indeed. Miss Linglong is more beautiful than before!"
Jin Feng complimented casually.
Zhu Linglong was in charge of Jinchuan Bank. Her personality was definitely not introverted, and she even had the temperament of a strong woman. But when she heard Jin Feng compliment her, she couldn't help but blush, and for a moment she didn't know how to answer the question.
Runniang and Zuo Feifei, who were following Jin Feng, couldn't help but look at each other when they saw this.
