After listening to Feng Zhengqing's explanation, Mr. Feng frowned slightly and said in a deep voice:
"The Zhang family is really getting more and more rampant. They're so overbearing that they're refusing to let anyone do business in Shanghe County unless they can form a partnership. They really think they're a piece of cake! Do they really think no one in Shanghe County can control them?"
Feng Zhengqing nodded indignantly and said, "Yes, the Zhang family has been going too far in recent years. It was fine before they were plotting against our restaurant business, but now they're interfering in a business that has nothing to do with them. No matter how close the county magistrate is to their family, he's not surnamed Zhang!"
Old Master Feng nodded with a calm expression, then looked at Su Liuer who was standing aside with a calm expression and silence.
Asked: "Have you ever thought about asking the Jing family to handle this matter?"
Feng Zhengqing wanted to ask Old Man Feng for help, so he naturally explained everything about Su Liuer's business, including the fact that Jing Qingrong was a partner.
Su Liu'er shook her head when she heard this and said, "This business is under the Su's Immortal Herb Honey, not the Jing family's name. Young Master Jing hasn't been here recently, so I want to find a way to handle this matter myself first. If that doesn't work, we'll see."
Old Master Feng pondered for a moment and agreed, "That's right. Since it's your own business, you have to handle it yourself. But you don't have to do it all by yourself. You are Axue's good friend, and you are going into business with Zhengqing and his wife. I can still help you with this matter."
This means helping Su Liuer.
Su Liuer was naturally grateful and said, "Thank you very much, old man. If there is anything you need me to do, just let me know."
Mr. Feng was a daring person when he was young. He liked Su Liuer's straightforwardness and frankness, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
He told Su Liuer how he planned to help.
Old Master Feng has friendships with the Whale Gang, but not with the people in the Shanghe County branch. Instead, he has some personal connections with the person in charge of the Whale Gang in this southern area.
The Whale Gang is distributed in all places with waterways in Dongling Kingdom. It can be roughly divided into four spheres of influence: east, south, west and north. The four spheres of influence are respectively controlled by four helmsmen.
The Whale Gang branch at the Shanghe County wharf is just a small force in the southern sphere of influence.
This is why, even though the Zhang family is on good terms with the county magistrate in Shanghe County, it is not easy for them to interfere with Mr. Feng’s business.
The Shanghe County Magistrate will also give face to the leader of the Whale Gang.
Old Master Feng personally wrote a letter and gave it to Su Liuer, asking her to choose whether to go to the helmsman in person to ask for help or send someone to deliver the letter.
Su Liuer accepted the letter and did not make a decision immediately. She only said that she would think about it carefully.
Old Master Feng clapped his hands and said, "You are very calm, girl, which doesn't seem to match your young age." He was surprised and praised.
"I've been through a lot, and now I'm living alone with my child. Even if I'm panicking inside, I have to keep a straight face. That way, others won't provoke me when they see me like this."
Mr. Feng laughed twice when he heard this and didn't ask any more questions.
However, the word "provoke" in Su Liuer's words made Mr. Feng's impression of her even better. She didn't mean to prevent others from bullying her, but to provoke her. She was really an interesting girl who was quite confident in herself.
After finishing the business, Su Liuer and Qin Mei returned to Jufu Restaurant, planning to make some pastries together before coming back.
