Chapter 425: Chapter 427 Missing Wild Brother_1

Xue Ling was slurping the rice noodles but did not even lift her head, saying, "A madam from a brothel, I went to buy some noodles and the store was on the way, she recognized me from Spikenard Square and started talking to me."

Nan Feng recalled the scene of being pushed onto the stage when he was delivering goods during the courtesan competition, and couldn’t help but sigh, saying, "Should I sell or not?"

"You selling? Forget it, you are already engaged, you can’t sell."

Nan Feng tapped Xue Ling with her chopsticks and said, "Don’t twist my words, I just feel that our products are quite popular among those people, alas, forget it, if we are to sell, we are to sell. This order will be considered as one you brought in, you’ll take the goods to them."

"Why am I the one to deliver?" Xue Ling finally shifted her focus from the tasty Wanjing noodles.

"I am the boss, you volunteered to help, I provide you with food and shelter, and you’ll do whatever I ask," Nan Feng put on a crafty businesswoman’s air.

"..." Angrily, Xue Ling stood up: "Fine, I’ll deliver."

...

That evening, Nan Feng was on the second floor of the shop checking the accounts when she heard someone asking, "Where’s Lady Nan?"

The voice was familiar but Nan Feng just couldn’t remember who it belonged to.

Probably because she had met too many people and heard too many voices within this period, and hence forgot about it.

Xue Ling, who was watching the shop, lazily pointed upwards and said, "Upstairs. You want something?"

"Could you please call her down? I’m from the Business Association, I need to speak with her."

Nan Feng finally remembered, it was Wen Qiang from the Wanjing County Business Association.

Before Xue Ling could call out, Nan Feng answered then descended from the second floor.

In the shop, Wen Qiang was waiting for her with an envelope in his hand.

"Brother Wen, what’s the matter?" Nan Feng asked.

Wen Qiang looked at Nan Feng with a cheerful expression, "Lady Nan, your store has been open for half a month now?"

Nan Feng nodded, "Yes, what’s up?"

Wen Qiang was much friendlier to Nan Feng than before, he cheerfully said, "According to the decision of our Business Association, as long as you’ve been doing business locally for half a month, you can join our Wanjing County Business Association. You had joined an association in Ping County before, so you should know its benefits. I have an invitation here for you. If you decide to join, you can fill it out now and I’ll take it back with me."

Nan Feng thought for a moment, joining the association did indeed have several benefits, but it could also bring some troubles, for example, Wan Fengzhen was such a troublesome one.

"Brother Wen, I just arrived at Wanjing County not long ago, why don’t we wait and see and make a decision later? My business has not yet taken off, wouldn’t you say?"

Wen Qiang advised, "It’s more profitable to join as soon as you open your store, you can receive a 10 percent discount on association fees, but after two months, it will be the full amount."

But Nan Feng insisted: "That’s fine, I can pay the full amount later, I’m not in a hurry."

Wen Qiang continued to persuade, but Nan Feng still politely declined.

Wen Qiang had no choice but to leave disheartened.

...

Seeing the business in the shop flourishing, Nan Feng wanted to go back to Ping County.

Xue Ling repeatedly assured that she would take care of the shop, permitting Nan Feng to return without worry, but remembering Xue Ling’s impulsiveness and capriciousness, Nan Feng felt somewhat uncertain.

Xue Ling had to make an absolute promise: "Whether or not you trust me, it doesn’t matter, as you’re going to leave anyway. Unless you decide not to do business. But your new shop just opened, how can you close for several days? So you have to trust me."

Nan Feng still felt doubtful, so while packing, she made a point of giving additional instructions which later annoyed Xue Ling to the point of wanting to smash something.

Nan Feng wasn’t worried: "Who told you to run over here without saying a word? Who made a bad impression, yet still blames others?"

Xue Ling responded with a series of ’go, go, go’.

...

Nan Feng mostly just missed her brother, but when she went to the Yamen to find him, she found that he had gone with county magistrate Song to work on a case.
