After Nangong Yuchen left, the head of the He family, He Shikai, found Sheng Guoer.
"Boss Sheng's visit has made the humble abode shine. Boss Sheng's actions in Ping'an Township are very admired by me, especially his method of dealing with the Chen family and Gao Jingjie." Nangong Yan, the head of the Nangong family He also came over and said respectfully: "Yes, now that the Chen family and Gao Jingjie have surrendered to Shopkeeper Sheng Guoer, can this matter be considered over?"
"Yes, Boss Sheng probably didn't expect such an ending before he did anything, right?" The head of the He family said with a smile: "In this way, the people who were forced by Gao Jingjie and the Chen family no longer have to worry. Boss Sheng is really a man of great merit..."
Although Sheng Guoer felt strange in her heart, she still pretended that nothing happened: "The two heads of the family are being polite. This is just Sheng's responsibility."
"Haha, Boss Sheng is so humble." The head of the Nangong family shook his head slightly: "Boss Sheng is indeed a talent who can easily deal with the Chen and Gao families!" He Shikai, the head of the He family, also nodded: "Yes, Boss Sheng, with With your intelligence and courage, you will definitely become the most powerful wealthy businessman in South China in the future."
This kind of mutual praise in business has long been commonplace for Holy Fruit. The two family members thought that Holy Fruit would be praised so much that they were in a state of mist. However, what Sheng Guoer said next made the two family heads very angry. of surprise and surprise.
"The two family heads have given you too much praise. I'm just a small businessman. How can I dare to compare with you?" Sheng Guoer smiled faintly, and then turned her eyes to Nangong Yan next to her: "Nangong family head, sir, you praise me so much. What's going on? Is it because of the young man who just went out?"
Nangong Yan looked at Sheng Guoer, with a strange light shining in the depths of her eyes, and a faint smile on her lips: "Ah, it's not for my sons Nangong Yuchen and Nangong Yueyi. I came to visit Boss Sheng today, of course. To discuss cooperation."
Sheng Guoer's eyebrows raised: "Cooperation?" There was a puzzled look on her face: "As far as I know, the head of the Nangong family is a wealthy man in Nancheng, with strong assets and industries all over the country. He still needs to cooperate with a little person like me. ?"
"Haha...Boss Sheng deserves the award. Although our Nangong family is very large, it is still far behind the financial resources and influence of the Sheng family. As the saying goes, we are strong when we unite, and we are weak when we divide!"
Nangong Yanpi said with a smile: "And I heard that Boss Sheng is planning to make a big deal in the near future. If the cooperation is happy, our two families will definitely make a lot of money together. How about it? Boss Sheng is willing to Think about it?"
Sheng Guoer pondered for a moment and asked, "What kind of cooperation?"
"Yes, I heard that Boss Sheng has taken on the construction project of the border fortress. One of our He family and Nangong family can make military uniforms for the soldiers, and the other can provide medicine."
Nangong Yan said: "My family is an expert in medicine and a family of medicine. All the medicines in the palace use ours. The border is so big, there are so many fortresses and bunkers, and there are so many soldiers. This deal can be considered to be for the country and the people. I don't know how prosperous it is." Whether the boss is willing to cooperate with us, as for the commission, it’s easy to negotiate.”
The head of the He family, He Shikai, quickly agreed: "Yes, Boss Sheng, the strength of our two families cannot be underestimated. This deal is definitely a good deal. Boss Sheng, what do you think?"
"Haha, I'm only responsible for building construction and don't care about other things."
Sheng Guoer smiled and refused: "Besides, I have always been lazy and have never thought about doing any big business. If the two family heads really want to do this business, they might as well find someone else to cooperate. With all due respect, I’m afraid the two family heads won’t be able to invite me.”
Sheng Guoer's words made it very clear. She was not short of money, let alone benefits, so she was unwilling to participate in any competition. If the two heads of the family really wanted to cooperate, they might as well find someone else.
After listening to Sheng Guoer's words, Nangong Yan frowned, and the heads of the He family and Shikai were also stunned at the same time. They did not expect that Sheng Guoer would actually reject their invitation to cooperate.
"snort!"
The head of the He family snorted coldly and angrily said: "Sheng Guo'er, don't be so shameless! We, the He family and the Nangong family are both princes, and you actually dare to reject us! Believe it or not, you are doing this unfriendly behavior It will cause you trouble!"
Sheng Guoer smiled coldly: "Oh? You two are overthinking it! I'm not hostile at all, I just feel like I've just arrived here and I want to get familiar with it."
"Okay! Since you are so disrespectful, let's just wait and see!" The head of the He family said angrily and left the He family courtyard. Nangong Yan also sighed and left.
Seeing the heads of the He family and Nangong family disappear from sight, Sheng Guoer sighed slightly and murmured to herself: "Oh, the appetites of the He family and Nangong family are really big."
Sheng Guoer knew very well that the He family and the Nangong family were very powerful, and their relationship was complicated and involved all aspects. If the Sheng family really went head-to-head with the He family and the Nangong family, the final result would definitely not be wonderful.
Moreover, although the Sheng family is strong, its foundation is still shallow and its foundation is relatively weak. If the He family and the Nangong family unite, the Sheng family will really not be able to compete with them.
Thinking of this, Sheng Guoer couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "Oh, if there is a chance, I really hope to truly cooperate with the Nangong family and the He family, but... alas..."
And at this moment, suddenly, there was a slight sound of footsteps on the roof, and then a graceful and graceful figure appeared in Sheng Guoer's field of vision.
The girl is tall, with short ear-length hair, delicate facial features, delicate skin, and exudes a strong bookish air.
"Boss Sheng." The girl stood by the lake and exposed her back towards Sheng Guo'er.
"Girl, it's so dangerous here by the lake, come here?" Sheng Guoer's eyes widened immediately and asked Xiao Tao to pull the girl out: "What are you doing here?"
This girl is the garden girl who keeps vomiting and complains that she is not in good health. She is the concubine of the He family, He Wanrong.
"I...I didn't." He Wanrong bit his lip. Shangguan felt that the girl had something on his mind, so he said to her: "I want to talk to the girl, is that okay?"
He Wanrong nodded: "Yes."
He Wanrong obediently sat down opposite Sheng Guoer, lowering his eyelids as if he was hesitant to speak.
Sheng Guoer saw it in her eyes and felt distressed in her heart: "Girl, if you have any difficulties, just tell me and I will definitely help you."
"I...I don't know whether I should say something or not..."
"You tell me."
He Wanrong hesitated for a long time and then said: "Boss Sheng, I think you should keep a distance from Master Nangong. I saw it just now. There is Liu Ruyan here, and he also likes the Nangong family very much. The two brothers, Especially Nangong Yueyi, who is deeply loved by the Liu family, Liu Ruyan, he is a famous embroidery master! Her master is Zhao Qingya, she cannot be offended! "
Sheng Guoer was very moved by this kind-hearted girl and asked, "You and I are strangers, why are you helping me like this?"
"This..." He Wanrong hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Boss Sheng, I'll tell you, but you must not tell others!"
Sheng Guoer nodded repeatedly to express her agreement.
"I like Young Master Nangong, I have liked him since I was a child, but he is too good and I am not good enough for him, so I can only hide in the dark and like him silently, but these days I always feel that the difference between Young Master Nangong and that Liu Ruyan is getting closer and closer. I know they are childhood sweethearts, but who knows about this kind of thing?" He Wanrong said: "Do you think Master Nangong and Liu Ruyan will... will it develop to the end?"
Sheng Guoer shook her head when she heard this: "Nangong Yueyi is a smart man. He should know exactly what he wants, and he should not mess around."
"Oh, I also know that he won't mess around, but men are all thinking animals. No matter how smart or cautious a man is, he can't escape, unless...unless Master Nangong is a saint, and he doesn't care about Liu Ruyan at all. not interested."
Sheng Guoer didn't know how to comfort her.
"You think I'm having wild thoughts, right? But I just can't control myself." As he was talking to Wanrong, he burst into tears. The pear blossoms were covered with rain, and I felt pity for him.
Sheng Guoer sighed and reached out to hold her shoulders: "Girl, don't worry, I won't tell anyone what you said, not even Nangong Yueyi."
"Thank you, Boss Sheng!"
He Wanrong burst into laughter.
Seeing her like this, Sheng Guoer couldn't help but smile.
Although this girl is young, she is very much like her modern cousin. Her modern cousin was also like this. She showed very low self-esteem when facing the boy she liked.
Suddenly, He Wanrong suffered from retching again. Seeing this, Sheng Guoer quickly called the maid to prepare warm water and clean towels.
After wiping her mouth with Wanrong, she felt relieved.
"Boss Sheng, thank you so much." He Wanrong blushed and looked shy. Xiao Tao hurriedly checked He Wanrong's pulse.
He Wanrong looked at Xiao Tao strangely.
Sheng Guoer smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, my sister is studying medicine."
"So that's it, that's really amazing." He Wanrong exclaimed, and then looked at Xiao Tao with eyes full of envy.
After Xiaotao completed the diagnosis, she said solemnly: "Sister, I suspect that this girl may be suffering from chronic poison, or poison."
"Poison?"
"Gu worms are a forbidden technique in Miao territory. Because these bugs are more terrifying than poison, they have been extinct long ago. However, there is still a vague record of the recipe for worms. And this girl's situation seems to be very similar to that of worms, but I still don't know. Further confirmation is needed.”
Sheng Guoer frowned after hearing this. If it was really a Gu insect, who could be so cruel?
"Is there a solution?"
"Not yet." Xiao Tao shook her head: "I need to go home and discuss it with Master first."
Sheng Guoer nodded in agreement.
Sheng Guoer suddenly remembered a person and said, "This person may be able to help you!"
