Ding Kui used ecstasy while asking questions. Given the difference in strength between the two of them, Hai Mengji felt that he was just dreaming and would not know that Ding Kui had used magic.
After making an appointment for a cup of tea, Ding Kui left the study alone. No one noticed that his expression was slightly unnatural.
Hai Mengji was in a trance, feeling that the master had walked into his heart and chatted a lot with him. When he woke up, he found that there was no one in the study.
"Ah, did I fall asleep just now?" She found herself sitting on the chair where Ding Kui had been sitting just now. "Or was I sitting on the master?" At this time, her cheeks were hot, and she looked down at the clothes on her body, "No.
No, no, the master is not that kind of person, but what happened just now?"
A heroic girl walked into the study, her sharp eyes stinging at Hai Mengji's eyes, "Are you Hai Mengji?"
Hai Mengji immediately stood up, bent down and saluted, and said, "I am my servant. What are your orders, young lady?" She didn't know anyone when she arrived here for the first time, and she knew very well that she had the least qualifications, so she had to keep her attitude down to everyone.
"I'm not a young lady, but my surname is Ding, and my name is Ding Fen!" Ding Fen walked to Hai Mengji and puffed up her chest. She glanced out of the corner of her eyes and couldn't help but feel discouraged, and her shoulders relaxed again, "You don't need to call yourself slave, I will follow you."
You also serve the master, but I am the master's personal bodyguard."
Hai Mengji came from a wealthy family, and immediately understood what Ding Fen meant, and said with envy: "Miss Ding is so lucky! Seeing that you are much younger than me, you are actually the master's personal bodyguard.
The bodyguard here is your youngest."
"How can other guards compare with me? When I was only this old," Ding Fen put her hand on her waist to show her height, "Master saved me."
She had been comparing herself to Hai Mengji since she entered the house. Her words conveyed a sense of superiority, and she wanted to outshine the newcomer.
"Miss Ding turns out to be an old man in the house. I hope you can tell me if I have done something wrong." Hai Mengji had already seen through Ding Fen's thoughts.
"I may not be free. Come on, I will take you around the house to familiarize yourself with the environment." Ding Fen then followed Ding Kui's instructions.
She took Hai Mengji throughout the lord's mansion except for a few forbidden areas, and finally came to the side hall. She patted Hai Mengji on the shoulder and said, "You will be in charge of this place from now on. I don't know what you are capable of. I'll leave it to you as soon as you arrive."
In such an important place, you still only listen to the master's maid."
Hai Mengji didn't think there was anything special about it. He was perfectly capable of serving guests in the side hall. Instead, he was afraid that he would be redundant in Ding Mansion.
After arranging Hai Mengji, Ding Fen ran to report to Ding Kui, "Master, what you told us has been completed."
"Well, that's right. I heard that you've been running away a lot lately. What were you doing when I wasn't here?" Ding Kui just ran to take a cold shower.
"Ah? Well, Xiaohua is short of money and wants to make some pocket money." Ding Fen kneaded her fingers.
"Ahem, cough, cough," Ding Kui almost choked to death on his own saliva, "Did I hear you right? Are you short of money? Then I will die of poverty. Don't lie to me."
"It's true. I bought some shops in Juyang City. I spent almost all my previous savings, but there are large tracts of open space in the new city, but I don't have the money to buy them. If I don't make money to buy some early, I won't be able to buy them in the future.
Here we are." Ding Fen explained hurriedly, fearing that Ding Kui would misunderstand her and lie.
"Hey, you are a little money man who knows how to plan. You can buy a house, a shop, and land. Who taught you this?" Ding Kui didn't expect that little Ding Fen actually knew such a sound investment method.
"You often say that the enemy comes to rob money and food, kill people and burn houses, but the land cannot be taken away. Even if the land is robbed and fought to the death, it must be taken back. The master said that the safest place in your territory in Xincheng is here.
Even if there are too many enemies, they can't take it away." Ding Fen listened to Ding Kui's words the most, followed by Qian Bu's. She would not miss anything that both of them recognized.
"You are right. Investing in fixed assets is better than lending money to Ding. What can you do to make so much money?" Ding Kui was worried that the little girl would be deceived.
"I picked some precious flowers and plants and put them on consignment with Widow Hu. I also helped her ripen some medicinal materials. If I meet a buyer who knows the goods, I can sell them for a lot of money." Ding Fen's eyes shone.
"Widow Hu?" Ding Kui's heart tightened when he heard the widow. That time he was assassinated by the White Widow and almost lost his life. He was still frightened.
"Yes, Widow Hu from the herbal medicine shop in the south of the city. I rented that shop to her."
"Then have you made enough money?" Ding Kui made a mental note and decided to send someone to check out Widow Hu's background.
"Not yet. Once the orchid, water lily, and metamorphosis are sold, plus the bonus for ripening medicinal materials, I should be able to buy an open space." Ding Fen counted on her fingers.
"What kind of grass is that? Hey, forget it, I don't understand it either. I'll ask Mr. Fei tomorrow to find out how many people a herbal shop can know who know the goods." Ding Kui didn't believe Widow Hu.
"Oh, thank you, sir. Is there something wrong with Hai Mengji? Do you need me to keep an eye on her?" Ding Fen couldn't hold back her curiosity.
"There is nothing wrong with her." Ding Kui's ears were a little red, "Go tell Ding Chuan and arrange a separate room for her and let her get used to it first." After that, he drove Ding Fen away.

Zipi walked into the study, turned around and closed the door with his own hands, then saluted Zisi, "The arrangements for the future have been properly arranged."
Zisi held it in for a while and then said: "Huh, what else are you planning? Get rid of it! Don't leave any traces."
"Ah! But..." Zipi didn't expect his father to respond like this at all.
"Didn't you see what happened to the Tang family? Do you think we won't follow in the Tang family's footsteps?" Zisi said bluntly.
"They have a handle on us." Zibi's forehead was sweating.
"Yes, they were the ones who controlled the Ding family when they joined forces with outsiders. At most we knew about it but did not report it. This little thing can't bring down the Zi family. I really want to tell Young Dianyong that he wouldn't be disappointed? It's not the Yang family's fault, Young Master
Dian Yong had already sat on the throne.
If we go to help Shaodian Yong to conquer the whole country now, can we make up for the sin of forcing the eldest prince to death? Yang Zhao's plan was so vicious. He included me in his calculations back then. I hate that I just figured it out now."
Si slapped his hand on the table.
With a crash, the tea table fell apart and shattered all over the floor.
"Here, then, do the Zi family still need to assist the new king? Ding Kui is the king's brother-in-law." Although Zipi's intelligence was not as good as that of his son, he finally understood after hearing what Zisi said.
"The Zi family exists to assist Shaodian in royal orthodoxy, no matter who the king's brother-in-law is! You must remember that you must also tell the heirs of the Zi family in the future that you would rather destroy the family than protect the royal family's orthodoxy! The interests of the kingdom are far greater than
Brother-in-law's interests are important, and the king will naturally understand it when he grows up." Zisi wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and then threw it on the sawdust.
