Chapter 887: Not Afraid Of Being Envied?
Translator: Vesper
Yu Feng stared at Ning Meng Yao for a long time before he spoke, “Then, we will go with you.” There was nothing here worth cherishing for them. As long as the family would be together, they could go anywhere.
Ning Meng Yao was startled. “Brother-in-law...”
“Yao’er, you don’t need to say anything else. We know what we are doing. If you go, but we stay here, then all eyes would be on us. After all, we are one of the leaders of Tong Bao Zhai.” Mu Chen said ironically.
If Ning Meng Yao and her family were the only ones who left, while the rest of them stayed here, then those people might not even sleep peacefully.
Ning Meng Yao was silent for a moment before she nodded. She knew they were right, it would be better if they left together.
Seeing Ning Meng Yao nodding, Yu Feng and Mu Chen smiled widely. Yu Feng turned to Wei Luo and asked her, “You mentioned that you can help us? What do you mean? Help us to manage Tong Bao Zhai, or... to deal with the matters regarding Tong Bao Zhai?”
Wei Luo grinned at Yu Feng and said, “Help you deal with the matters regarding Tong Bao Zhai. When you leave this place, I can ship some things from Tong Bao Zhai to you. For the rest of the things, I can ask some people there to help if you agree.”
There were things in Tong Bao Zhai that they really needed to take away with them. Ning Meng Yao considered her conditions carefully. She thought that the conditions were not impossible, so she nodded in agreement. “Alright, I have an idea, after we leave, you are responsible for establishing a free school and a free medical clinic, for the local people only. Also, make sure that Tong Bao Zhai does not participate in any disputes with other empires.”
Speaking about things they needed to take, Ning Meng Yao’s lips were slightly hooked, thinking of the person who had been away for a long time.
“Okay, aren’t you afraid that those people will become warier of Tong Bao Zhai?” Doing such things could really win the hearts of the people. If this ended up causing fears among those people, then the consequences would be even more disastrous than if they continued staying here.
Ning Meng Yao smiled indifferently, she looked at Wei Luo and replied plainly, “If we do this for the people, they will be the ones benefiting. If just one or even tens of thousands of people were benefited, this may not give a good result, but what if millions benefited?”
The people in power cared about people’s thoughts. All the things that Tong Bao Zhai did would be beneficial to the people and help them economically. Under such circumstances, could those people in power still dare to deal with Tong Bao Zhai, and ignore the well being of the people?
She hoped that the people would know what to do if they were not fools. As long as someone had a little intelligence, they would know how to choose. Besides, she and her family would not be here at that time.
Wouldn’t it be good since the people would benefit, and even without Ning Meng Yao and them around?
Wei Luo suddenly laughed, seeing Ning Meng Yao’s confident look. “I suddenly understand how you could develop Tong Bao Zhai to what it is today. Very well, I’ll do what you instructed.” Wei Luo said seriously. She was deeply moved as she looked at Ning Meng Yao.
Ning Meng Yao shrugged and said, “I was forced by life.”
This time, not only Wei Luo but even Yu Feng and the rest could not help but blink, she became so wealthy because she was forced by life? Or is it that even the Imperial families are terrified of her so they let her live? 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨m
“What I said is true.” Ning Meng Yao nodded swiftly after seeing the disbelief in their eyes, what she said was indeed the truth.
She had taken over Tong Bao Zhai just because she wanted to create an environment where she could live in peace. She would not need to do anything and she could live the life she wanted, why couldn’t they believe her?
Qiao Tian Chang glanced at everyone and then nodded. “Yao Yao isn’t lying to you. She wanted something like a support that could allow her to live peacefully and do what she likes to do.”
When Qiao Tian Chang was speaking, Ning Meng Yao kept nodding on the side. “Tian Chang is right, that’s all I wanted. That was my plan when I took over Tong Bao Zhai at that time. I didn’t expect things would turn out this way.” Ning Meng Yao looked at Yu Feng very innocently.
Yu Feng and others blinked slightly as they looked at Ning Meng Yao for a while, and then they bowed their heads silently. “True, it seems that we were all happy for nothing.”
