"Miss Gong …"
"Childe Rong, you came in such an aggressive manner, said so many threatening words to slander our Gong family, and did so many ugly things. We have done our best not to pursue the matter. I also heard that you detained the slaves we auctioned. Let's not beat around the bush. If you have solid evidence to prove that I did it, I'm willing to be punished by you at will. Then I'm willing to let you deal with me as you wish, and the Gong Family will have no complaints. But you accused us and forced us to admit it with the excuse that we bought it. Is this how the Rong family and the Xu family do business? After the auction, the money and the goods will be cleared. This is the rule set by your ancestors. Forget it, so much time has passed, who would care about those steamed bun fillings? Unlike our Gong Family, we don't dare to forget a single word of the rules set by our ancestors. "
Lin Mengya changed from defense to offense. She interrupted Rong Luyi's words and forcibly changed the topic.
Rong Luyi took a deep breath. He also knew that forcibly detaining the people of the Gong family this time had broken the rules.
Not to mention whether the release of the slaves had anything to do with the Gong family.
It would not look good if the detaining of other people's goods became a big deal.
He would not do such a stupid thing. It was Xu Yanqing who came up with the idea.
He couldn't help but look at the Xu family.
Now Xu Yanqing was so angry that he couldn't say a word, and the juniors around him were also afraid of Lin Mengya's mouth.
He had to continue to deal with her helplessly.
"Miss Gong, you worry too much. It's not like that. It's just that something went wrong with this batch of slaves, so it was delayed for a day. Of course, we dare not forget the rules of our auction house. I'll send someone back to see how things are going. "
Rong Luyi understood that they couldn't get any benefits today.
Just when he wanted to retreat, the people around him also showed signs of dispersing.
Although the five sons of the Gong family were unwilling, since they had already left, they had no reason to force them to stay.
However, what happened today made them feel humiliated.
If it was the powerful and prosperous Gong Family from fifty or a hundred years ago, how would they dare to frame them so brazenly and even force their way to their door?
They were like slaves who had been oppressed for a long time and could no longer hold back their yearning for freedom.
The disciples of the Gong Family could no longer tolerate the arrogance of these people.
Lin Mengya could feel that the Gong Family was about to burst with new hope.
Very well, she might as well add fuel to the fire.
"Wait."
She rose from her chair and called out to those who were about to leave.
Rong Luyi suppressed his anger and turned to look at her with dissatisfaction.
They were about to leave, so was she still going to chase after them?
"Miss Gong, what can I do for you?"
"I can't say that I'm teaching, but there's one thing I hope everyone here can understand. I don't want any outsiders to interfere with the Gong Family's matters. Of course, if anyone thinks that the family behind him can completely swallow up our Gong family, that's a different story. "
Gong Ya's words served as a warning to all the families present.
They were smart enough to know what she was referring to.
Rong Luyi didn't reply. With an ashen face, he bade farewell and left before the enemy.
Then, those people got up and left one by one.
The huge inn gradually quieted down.
The Gong Family didn't cheer or jump for joy. Everyone had a very serious look on their faces.
Today, it was because Miss Gong was here.
What about tomorrow?
Humans were not gods. One day, they would grow old and die.
At that time, would they be scattered again and become the soil that everyone could trample on?
No! They didn't want to bear that humiliation again!
But they didn't know how to do it.
"Eldest Brother, please go and comfort the others. Come back later."
Lin Mengya didn't avoid the eyes of her family members. In a sense, the disturbance made by these people accelerated her plan.
Only by constantly facing the pain of adversity could people work hard to move forward and hone their willpower.
Now the Gong Family was qualified to do so.
The heavens never let down those who worked hard.
When she returned to the second floor, Baisu, Shang 'er and Gong Ping were already standing in her room.
"Master, everything has been arranged."
Baisu nodded at her, indicating that Zhu Yan had been settled.
Lin Mengya finally felt relieved. Zhu Yan had suffered a lot. She had always trusted Baisu when she was doing things.
"Gong Ping."
"Yes, Miss Gong."
Lin Mengya didn't know where he learned to be so quick-witted.
He clearly looked like the honest and sincere type, so it was even more unexpected.
"Do you remember what happened after I left that day and how you got back at me?"
Gong Ping nodded his head and immediately told him what had happened that day in a simplified manner.
After Lin Mengya left, Gong Ping was very anxious.
But he knew that he had just started to learn martial arts. Not to mention protecting Miss Gong, he was afraid that he would be a burden to her.
But he was very worried about Miss Gong, so he could only avoid those patrolling people and wander around like a headless fly.
After that, it was the commotion caused by Miss Gong riding on a tiger.
Fortunately, he lost his way at that time and was far away from the scene.
Seeing the chaos, Gong Ping took the opportunity to run back.
In the evening, when Gong Bin and the others came back, Gong Ya was gone. Gong Ping then reported the matter to the brothers of the Gong family.
Because of this, he was almost beaten up because of his incompetence.
If it wasn't for Gong Si stopping him, he wouldn't have been able to escape the pain of his flesh.
"You've worked hard. You've done a good job. It happened so suddenly that I didn't have time to tell you. All of you must keep your mouths shut about this matter and never mention it to anyone. After you leave this room, you must keep your mouths shut, understand? "
The three of them nodded vigorously, for fear that she would be worried.
There was a slight movement on the door. Gong Ping and Baisu immediately wanted to attack from the left and right sides, but were stopped by Lin Mengya.
"Fourth Brother, I won't hide it from you. Why did you eavesdrop like others?"
The door was pushed open from the outside.
Gong Si had a bitter smile on his face. After looking at her, he lightly sighed.
"I knew I couldn't hide it from you. Little sister, you've made a big deal out of it. On the surface, the slave trade is done by the Rong family and the Xu family, but in fact, you should be able to guess the tricks behind it. "
How could it be possible to sell slaves without the support of those aristocratic families?
The interests of the royal family and the royal family might be involved in it.
But, so what?
Lin Mengya shrugged indifferently and replied.
"Fourth Brother, some things didn't start with me. I'm just a small spark. If the sky of Weiguo is really set ablaze by fire, my role will be insignificant. Besides, it's not easy to succeed in this kind of thing. I was just forced by the situation. "
Hearing her words, Gong Si breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew that his little sister was not ordinary. She was not comparable to ordinary girls in the boudoir.
But if she really had such a big plan, the whole Gong family might not be able to make a splash.
"How are you going to deal with this matter?"
Lin Mengya thought for a while and shook her head.
"I'm not going to deal with the aftermath, because it's not fair to them."
Gong Si was a little anxious. But he had always been obedient to Lin Mengya, and now he was just worried about her safety.
"No! I won't allow you to continue to be with those people! I know you pity them, but this is their fate. I beg you, listen to me for once. I'll deal with the aftermath for you. I promise it won't be a threat to you, okay? "
Gong Si's tone was almost pleading.
Lin Mengya sighed. She knew that her Fourth Brother really regarded her as a family member.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.
"Fourth Brother, it's not that I don't trust you. It's just that this matter is also good for the Gong family. Could it be that you've forgotten our ambition? "
Gong Si was a little hesitant, but his attitude was not as firm as before.
Lin Mengya knew that the Gong family would always be Gong Si's weakness.
As long as it was related to the Gong family, Gong Si would definitely consider it carefully.
She was definitely not making up an excuse to make use of the Gong family. If those people could be used by the Gong family, of course it would be better.
"Let's talk about the people that the Gong family brought back from the auction. How do you plan to settle them?"
In fact, there were precedents of people getting rid of slavery in Wei Country.
However, the treatment of these people was only slightly better than that of slaves.
To the aristocratic families, as long as they were even a little bit related to slavery, there would be a stain that could not be washed away for life.
The Gong family did not despise them, but the various opinions of others would make them live in pain forever.
This was probably not the original intention of the Gong family to save them.
"Big Brother means to send them back to their hometown. Or, to live incognito and settle down. "
Gong Si's eyes were a little dim. It seemed that he was not very satisfied with this solution.
After all, without a family, it was equivalent to losing everything.
Those people's lives would be ruined.
"Then, what if we let these people train and take charge of those refugees?"
"You mean …"
"The refugees need someone to rely on, and the Gong family needs to cultivate their power in the dark. Although two thousand people is not a small number, it is not a threat to the Rong family. But what if these two thousand people become the Gong family's power in the dark? "
Lin Mengya's suggestion was very encouraging.
After listening to it, Gong Si lowered his head.
For a long time, he did not speak.
"Aiya, Fourth Brother, you are making me anxious! I think little sister's idea is very good! "
