    Boss Su's wife cried for a while and seemed to have recovered. Seeing Dean Feng standing in front of her, she quickly kowtowed to Dean Feng and said: "Dean Feng, our leader is dead, and you cannot pay for the goods for the time being.  Please give me some time, please."

    As the woman spoke, she pressed the child's head to make the child kowtow with her.

    Dean Feng said quickly: "Madam, don't be like this. I'm not here to collect debts. Boss Su has left. Please express my condolences."

    The woman cried and kowtowed to Dean Feng again, but was finally stopped by Dean Feng.

    Dean Feng stood up, looked at the other shopkeepers and said: "No one wants to encounter a black flag thief, so we are fine. Although everyone owes the academy money for goods, we have a long time to come, so no one should do stupid things again."

    Hearing this, everyone said gratefully: "Thank you very much, Dean Feng, for your generosity. We will definitely pay back the money we owe to the academy."

    At this moment, the crowd outside shouted: "The mayor is here."

    The crowd quickly made way for them.

    Mayor Peng came to the center, glanced at the ground, shook his head and sighed, and ordered the servants behind him: "You guys, help Boss Su's family arrange the funeral, and all expenses will come from the Peng Mansion."

    The servant obeyed, and Mayor Peng turned around, cupped his fists to Dean Feng on the side and said, "It turns out that Dean Feng is here too."

    Dean Feng also clasped his fists in return.

    "Can Dean Feng take a step to speak?"

    Dean Feng looked at Cang Mang, pointed to a teahouse nearby and said to Mayor Peng, "Then let's go over there and talk."

    The three of them came to the tea house, which was just composed of a few simple sheds.

    You only need to spend one spirit coin to sit here for half a day, and the boss will provide you with unlimited hot water so that you can drink as much as you want.

    If you are willing to spend an extra spiritual coin, they will throw a few tea leaves into your tea cup.

    Because the prices are cheap, many people also like to go to this place to chat with others.

    But the main purpose of most people coming here is not to drink tea and chat, but to wait for work.

    There are many shops on the main street, and from time to time there will be some work of loading and unloading goods. If you can catch one, you only need to work for half a day, and you can earn an income of thirty or forty spirit coins.

    There is such a place that allows everyone to hide from the sun and chat, and everyone likes it.

    It¡¯s just that not many people drink tea, most people choose to drink plain water.

    Mayor Peng generously gave the boss a hundred spiritual coins: "Find us a quiet place."

    The boss quickly put away the spirit coins and invited the people at the surrounding tables to a place a little further away. These are all regular customers here, so everyone has no objections to this.

    Mayor Peng seemed a little unhappy when he saw that the boss just moved the people at the surrounding tables away from him, but did not set aside a shed specifically for himself.

    Dean Feng said indifferently: "Mayor Peng, it's okay, so be it."

    With that said, he and Cang Mang sat down together. Upon seeing this, Mayor Peng also sat down.

    The boss quickly brought a pot of hot tea: "Mayor, this is the best tea here."

    With that said, he poured a cup for each of the three of them.

    Mayor Peng glanced at the color of the tea and said to the boss: "Go and do your work. There is no need to greet us. We will sit down for a while and then leave."

    The boss quickly resigned.

    Mayor Peng then turned to Dean Feng and asked, "May I ask Dean Feng, how much has Feng Ji Academy lost this time?"

    Dean Feng did not hide anything: "About two million spiritual coins were lost."

    "So many?" Mayor Peng also looked surprised.

    ???????????????? Then he continued: "President Feng came to talk to me about the silk purchase price before. I was worried about this, so I rejected the price. I hope Dean Feng can understand."

    Dean Feng just nodded and said nothing.

    ¡°These merchants have lost so much, it may be impossible for them to pay back the money.¡±

    Dean Feng didn¡¯t say anything, he just picked up the tea and took a sip.

    Thinking of Boss Su's death, Dean Feng, although he couldn't say he was heartbroken, was somewhat sad and pitied his wife and children.

    "Peng has an unkind request, should I say it or not?"

    "Oh? Mayor Peng, please tell me."

    "Ordinary merchants have no ability to purchase the silk from Fengji Academy. After this incident, the cooperation between the academy and them will probably be even more difficult in the future." PengThe mayor sighed as he spoke.

    "Does Mayor Peng have any ideas?"

    "No one knows the situation of the Fengji Academy better than me, the mayor of the town. The academy needs a large amount of funds every year. Now that we finally have a business like silk, we can't just stop it."

    When Dean Feng heard this, he nodded in agreement.

    Mayor Peng continued: "I am afraid that Fengji Academy will not be able to bear such a loss this time."

    "The mayor is right, students need a lot of resources to practice, and the academy's funds are indeed hard-earned."

    Mayor Peng picked up the tea and was about to drink it when he saw the crude tea leaves in the tea bowl. He put the bowl down again and said, "So I thought about it and decided to purchase the academy's silk for the better development of the academy. As soon as we came here, Peng  Since the Peng family has a large number of security personnel every time they escort the goods, the chance of encountering black flag theft is smaller. Secondly, although the Peng family is not well-off, they can still guarantee the money and goods without the need for credit, so the academy is also  I won't take such a big risk. As for the price, the price that the academy distributes to farmers for unprocessed silkworm cocoons is 150, so the Peng family should charge it at 150. As for the subsequent work of reeling  , the servants of the Peng Mansion should be able to complete it, and the academy should earn a lot of money. I, the mayor, can do my best for the academy, what do you think of Dean Feng?"

    Dean Feng began to think that if it was only for the benefit of the academy, then the conditions offered by Mayor Peng were good. However, the reason why the academy outsourced the work of reeling silk to farmers was not only to make money for itself, but also to hope that the farmers could earn some.  money.

    So Dean Feng hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Mayor Peng let me think about this matter."

    Seeing that Dean Feng did not agree directly, Mayor Peng was somewhat disappointed: "Does Dean Feng have a better idea?"

    "The black flag thieves are too rampant, and the past operations in the town have yielded nothing, so this time, I want to report the matter to Green Water City and ask Green Water City to take action to solve this problem."

    Mayor Peng frowned and added: "The black flag bandits and robberies are local affairs. Lushui City will not care about them at all. They will only issue a document asking Qushui Town to step in to suppress the bandits. But the town will step in to suppress the bandits."  Dean Feng must know the result of suppressing the bandits. It is just a waste of money. In the future, it may even lead to the revenge of the black flag thieves. So what should we do?"

    Dean Feng nodded and said: "Of course I know Mayor Peng's concerns. If it is reported at the administrative level of Qushui Town, it will most likely be what the mayor said."

    "Since Dean Feng knows, it's better to forget it."

    Dean Feng did not agree, but explained: "Now Fengji Academy is a first-class academy, a key support target of Green Water City, and an academy directly under the Academy of Literature and Education. I want to inform the Academy of Literature and Education about this matter,  In the name of the severe damage to the teaching of the School of Ethics, the Cultural and Educational Institute proposed to the City Lord's Mansion. In this case, perhaps the City Lord's Mansion will send city guards to solve the matter. What does the mayor think?"

    "Well, well, that's a good idea. You can give it a try. Then I'll go back and submit the matter to the Institute of Culture and Education. If the Black Flag Pirates can be completely solved, then the citizens of Qushui Town will not need to fight in the future.  I live my life on tenterhooks.¡±

    "Oh? The mayor means that you will report this matter to the Institute of Culture and Education?"

    "Of course, Dean Feng works day and night for the development of Qushui Town. As the mayor, I should devote myself to this matter."

    Dean Feng thought for a while and said, "That's good. The Peng family's caravan often goes to Lushui City. They can bring the documents with them, which saves me a special trip."

    "It shouldn't be too late. Peng will go back and write the documents right now, and try to get them delivered as early as possible."

    "Mayor Peng is busy."

    A brief meeting ended like this.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
