Chapter 248 A Blessing in Disguise



Song Ning handed the blueprints to Zheng Gaoyi and then went to Jiangning County and Yongning County.

Jiangning County was fine because it was close by and Song Ning was familiar with the area. However, Yongning County was a first for Song Ning. Although it was about the same distance as Tianxiang County, the travel time was twice as long as that to Jiangning County.

Song Ning is not someone who gets carsick, but unexpectedly, one day she got carsick while riding a mule cart.

From Tianxiang County to Yongning County, there wasn't a single smooth stretch of road; her stomach felt like it was going to come out from the jolting.

She brought Shunzi and Li Xingwang with her this time. Seeing that Song Ning was in a lot of pain, Li Xingwang didn't dare to walk too fast.

After a full four hours, the three of them finally arrived outside Yongning County.

Song Ning lay in the carriage, her legs weak, and it was Li Xingwang and Shunzi who helped her down by her armpits.

Song Ning vowed to persuade Magistrate Wu of Yongning County to build a road.

Upon entering the county town, Song Ning felt as if he had come back to life. Magistrate Wu had already received the news and personally greeted him at the city gate.

"Miss Song, we've been waiting for you to come."

Song Ning bowed slightly: "I didn't expect the road to be so difficult. It took two whole hours to get here, which is why I was delayed. Magistrate Wu, please forgive me."

"Oh, what are you saying? It's good that you came. You must be tired from your journey. I've prepared a feast. Please come with me to my residence."

The people on the street were very curious about who this distinguished guest was that had come to greet them personally, as the county magistrate himself had come to welcome them.

On the way to the county government office, Song Ning observed the surroundings and came to the conclusion that Yongning County was not as prosperous as Jiangning County.

But since it's a county town, it can't be too bad.

Song Ning followed into the county government office, with Li Xingwang and Shunzi following behind, extremely excited.

Look, following Er Ya, even the people in the county government treated them with great respect, calling them "Master Shunzi" and "Master Li" repeatedly, making them feel quite arrogant.

Song Ning didn't feel anything, the only thing he didn't expect was that Magistrate Wu would try to poach his men.
