Chapter 432: Chapter 434 What to do now?_1 Chapter 432: Chapter 434 What to do now?_1 That day, Wen Qiang happened to be at the Business Association.
Nan Feng walked over to him with enthusiasm and called out, “Brother Wen.”
Usually, Wen Qiang was very polite to Nan Feng, but now Wen Qiang responded to her with a cold “Mm,” and simultaneously leaned back slightly, as if trying to distance himself from her.
Nan Feng’s smile froze on her face, “Brother Wen, you know the Yan sent soone to close my shop, right?”
Wen Qiang grunted a reply: “Mm.”
“The Yan said my shop hasn’t registered with the Business Departnt, but I clearly went that day, and you were with .”
Wen Qiang appeared uncomfortable: “Lady Nan, why don’t you go and ask at the Business Departnt?
You did indeed register with , but the Yan has no record of you.
I can’t do anything about it, there must have been so oversight.”
Nan Feng patiently asked: “So the Association doesn’t help rchants solve such problems?”
“Lady Nan, I suggested that you join the Association but you declined.
But even if you had joined, it wouldn’t have helped with this issue.
We can’t assist you here.
You need to ask at the Business Departnt.”
…
With simring anger, Nan Feng and Xue Ling hurried over to the Business Departnt at the Yan, a separate departnt in charge of rchants, functioning like a Chamber of Comrce.
It even managed the county’s business associations.
Because of the high volu of rchants usually visiting, to ensure proper administration, the Association was located on the back street of the Yan.
Nan Feng, accompanied by Xue Ling, approached the official responsible for registrations.
However, when the official heard that Nan Feng was from Spikenard Square, his expression seed to darken.
“Spikenard Square?
I don’t recall any record of it,” said the official.
“How could there be no record?
I registered in November.
Check the registry for that day,” Nan Feng said indignantly.
The official took out a ledger, Nan Feng recognized it as the one in which she had filled her details in on the day of registration.
However, after ticulously scanning November’s records, she found no trace of her registration.
Xue Ling also examined the ledger, pointed to a line on the page and said to Nan Feng, “This seems to have been re-bound.
I am skilled with handiwork and can clearly detect this.
So, your page might have been torn out.”
The official in charge of registration did not hastily snatch back the ledger, but simply remarked, “Yes, it was re-bound as the page had co loose.”
“…” Xue Ling was so angry she was lost for words.
Nan Feng steadied herself and asked, “Since you missed out on the registration, I wish to apply again.
Once the shop is registered again, I can reopen it, right?”
The official said, “You need to ask our Chief Jin.”
Jin Cao is a rank in the governnt bureau, the highest official in the Business departnt, akin to a Comrce Director.
“Where is Chief Jin?”
“He is in that building in the back.”
…
Nan Feng then went to et Chief Jin, but he stated that Nan Feng failed to do due registration in advance, and now it was too late.
Even if she wanted to reopen the shop, she would have to wait for half a year.
“Half a year?
Even the pickled kale would go stale by then!” Nan Feng exclaid irritably.
All Chief Jin had to offer was a helpless look.
Following that, they were shown out.
…
“What do we do now?” Xue Ling asked.
The pair had already left the Business Departnt and stepped onto the main street.
“I don’t even know what to do now,” sighed Nan Feng.
Talking as they went, the two of them wound up across the road from the Yan.
