Confucius businesswoman: proud of the world

Chapter 94 You Can't Guess
Guessing lantern riddles has always been a popular project, indeed one night, they have to line up to try.And Liu Shao's greeting made the crowd automatically give way to him, which took a lot of advantage.

Now that he is haggling with Situ Xueyi, he is already delaying the business.As the head of the family, Kong Linglong was obliged to speak out to remind her.

Although this reminder is always wrong in the eyes of others.

"Give me the money." Situ Xueyi said flatly.There was always a sense of coldness in this voice. At first, everyone had noticed Liu Shao naturally, but now they all looked at the cold blue-clothed man beside Liu Shao.

Liu Shao didn't hesitate anymore, took out 11 taels, and handed it to the money collector next to him.Then he looked at Situ Xueyi, waiting for him to walk in.

Situ Xueyi stared at Kong Linglong coolly, and took the lead to walk in.Liu Shao followed immediately.

There were more and more spectators staying outside. Many people stretched their necks and waited. A moment passed, and two moments passed. I don't know if the people inside guessed it right. It took longer than everyone before.

Kong Linglong's eyes were dark, she called the clerk, and said something to the clerk.

The guy was a little embarrassed, walked to the edge of the lantern riddle, and said to the inside: "Young masters, the time is up, if you don't come out again - we will increase the money."

Add money, add money, the two finally walked out from the surrounding of the lanterns with ugly faces, and reappeared in the eyes of everyone.

Kong Linglong waved her fan and looked at them: "Did you two guess the answer?"

Do you still need to ask? If you guessed it, how could your face be so ugly.

In fact, the riddle of the lantern riddle is not as simple as the three words "Evergreen Tree". There are many clues carved on the lantern, which is why you have to spend money to enter and see those clues.

Even if the people who come out reveal the mystery of the evergreen tree to others, it is difficult to remember so many clues provided at once, so those who want to try it out will eventually spend money to come in.

Situ Xueyi looked at Kong Linglong, and gradually showed a sneer: "Little girl, it's an insult to gentleness."

Is this satirizing Kong Linglong's lantern riddles?I haven't seen anyone who can't figure it out, it's ironic.

Kong Linglong also turned her head to look at Situ Xueyi, and said lightly, "The head of a family should each show their abilities."

If you don't have the skills, don't blame others for poor puzzles.

Situ Xueyi's face was so gloomy that black water dripped down, Kong Linglong was still at ease, and the speed of her fan while lying on the chair did not change.

Situ Xueyi suddenly narrowed his eyes, and then he noticed the fan in Kong Linglong's hand. The surrounding area was painted with gold, and the fan bones were elegant. It was Su Ye's bone fan!

And when Kong Linglong was shaking her fan, she was also staring at him, as if she wanted to say something in her deep eyes.

Situ Xueyi suddenly sneered from the bottom of his heart, what kind of lantern riddle, Suye was thinking behind it, right?Even if this little girl dared to be so arrogant, she thought that there was someone backing her up?

Situ Xueyi sneered at once: "If you come up with a mystery that no one can guess, and just wantonly siphoned money here, won't the magistrate don't care?"

Everyone charged one or two taels, and the money bag that the guy held just now probably contained more than a few hundred taels, right?

Sure enough, the merchants were greedy for profit, using a hopeless lottery far away in the sky, and all the people who were deceived were fooled.If this were in the capital, he would be able to cure a crime of gathering crowds to gamble...

Thinking of this, Kong Linglong glanced at him again.

Liu Shao next to him wanted to say something, but slowly swallowed it down.

But some people couldn't help it: "What nonsense are you talking about? Ms. Kong will return the money for guessing on the lantern riddles to the people. Why does the county magistrate control Ms. Kong to do good deeds?"

Situ Xueyi closed his pupils, and looked over again, only to see Kong Linglong avert his eyes slightly: "Lantern riddles are the icing on the cake, and everyone who pays is voluntary. The Confucian family cheated, the young master's generosity is too low."

That is, hundreds of people couldn't figure it out and didn't say anything, so he had something to say?

Immediately, the onlookers became dissatisfied regardless of whether his demeanor was aloof and intimidating.

Liu Shao whispered: "Young Master Situ, let's go."

Situ Xueyi suddenly took a step forward, startling everyone, and the warrior who was protecting Kong Linglong moved quickly to block Kong Linglong.

Situ Xueyi smiled coldly: "I just want to know, did you think up this lantern riddle, or did it come from the person behind you?"

There was a gloomy sound, almost gnashing their teeth, and the onlookers also realized immediately, the person behind Miss Kong?Could it be that—Young Master Suye?

Immediately, people's hearts fluttered, and more and more people looked at Kong Linglong.

Under so many gazes, Kong Linglong's expression finally turned cold, and she said after a while: "My Kong family's lantern riddles are never faked by others."

After finishing the sentence, the onlookers felt relieved.At the same time, it could be seen that Kong Linglong was angry. What was the origin of this man in blue who followed Liu Shao, to attack Kong Linglong because of a lantern riddle.

Situ Xueyi didn't take it seriously, and continued to sneer: "I don't believe a woman can come up with this kind of lantern riddle."

As soon as Kong Linglong stopped fanning, she became convinced of Situ Xueyi. The man who said something just now was a bit of a runaway woman, but at this time, he said such a sentence again.

"Believe it or not, it doesn't matter. I, Kong Linglong, created this lantern riddle. If you can't guess it, you can't blame me."

Not only can she not be blamed, but he can only blame himself for not being able to solve the lantern riddle.

Situ Xueyi smiled coldly.

Kong Linglong continued, "You don't believe me?"

At this time, the people around were a little dissatisfied. In fact, they didn't really want to guess the riddle. After all, 1000 taels of gold was just a fantasy. Most people came to guess the riddle. Even if you can't solve the lantern riddles if you spend this tael of money, it's still a good deed.

Therefore, everyone in Xianyang supported this lantern riddle.Seeing that this is the first year that Ms. Kong is hosting, there is such a person to disrupt the situation, and they are very dissatisfied.

"That's fine." Kong Linglong continued to stand up from the chair slowly, and looked at Situ Xueyi: "As long as you are willing to pay 100 taels, I will tell you the answer. At least you can be convinced."

When everyone heard this, they immediately erupted into excitement, and some people's eyes lit up, and they booed: "That's good, sir, if you are really unconvinced, give me 100 taels, Miss Kong will convince you."

Liu Shao stiffened his face. He didn't expect the matter to develop to this point. It was obvious that these people were helping Kong Linglong.

He stepped forward: "Young Master Situ..."

Situ Xueyi suddenly raised his hand to stop it, looked at Kong Linglong's beautiful face, and slowly squeezed out a cold smile: "100 taels, take it out."
