The only ancient god in the world sacrificed herself to protect the three realms from the demon race, perishing together.
After her death, her divine consciousness descended to the mortal rea...
Everyone pestered Qiuqiu to buy the same style as the Empress, but Qiuqiu said she had to wait because it was a limited edition.
To calm everyone down, Qi Junlin ordered someone to bring in a box of things.
Qi Junlin: "Everyone, this is the same soap used by the Empress. It leaves your hands smelling nice after use and is very convenient for washing hands and bathing. Those interested can come to me to pay and purchase!"
Someone curiously took a bar of soap, held it under their nose, and smelled it.
"It smells so good!"
Qi Junxian: "Of course. Even the Empress uses it to wash her hands. It makes them very clean and also has a sterilizing effect."
"That's great! Give me one! How much?"
Qi Junzhou: "Today is the Crown Prince's birthday, so we're having a special sale! It only costs 50 taels of silver!"
Xiao Feng: "50 taels of silver to use the same soap as the Empress is a great deal!"
Stegosaurus: "Getting this today is a steal! Limited quantities available, first come, first served!"
The food was immediately snatched up by everyone.
Chirp was stunned by the scene.
I never expected this product to be so popular!
[Oh! I see. This must be thanks to the Empress's influence in promoting sales. The Empress must be the queen of sales!]
The Queen smiled when she heard Qiuqiu's praise.
Although she couldn't quite understand what Qiuqiu was thinking, she could tell that her words were full of admiration and praise.
In ancient times, women were mostly dependent on men and did not have their own careers.
This time, Qiuqiu crowned the Queen as the Queen of Livestream Shopping.
The queen felt that she was also capable of earning money and could generate value, and she was very happy.
The Crown Prince's birthday banquet was a great success, and the dignitaries who came to celebrate went home satisfied with the things they had bought.
That evening, the three Qi brothers presented the recipe to the Crown Prince.
The prince was overjoyed and ordered people to begin production the next day.
When the job postings were put up in the palace, many ordinary people applied.
To put everyone's minds at ease, the Crown Prince ordered that the workers be paid according to the Heavenly Works' wage.
The people kowtowed to the crown prince in the direction of the palace.
The eldest prince, watching from the side, was so angry he wanted to grind his teeth.
The First Prince: "He really knows how to win people's hearts! That useless fellow Qi Jiating gave me a fake. Otherwise, I could have made money from it and won people's hearts just as well as he did!"
Lord Sun, standing nearby, whispered to the First Prince, "Your Highness, since we don't have the formula, perhaps..."
Upon hearing this, the eldest prince beamed with joy: "Excellent, that's wonderful!"
The perfumes and glasswares that were so sought after by the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital were immediately snapped up as soon as they were produced.
The Crown Prince and Qi Junlin made a fortune.
The people working in the factories were well paid, which not only enabled them to support their families but also improved their lives.
The streets were filled with an atmosphere of peace and prosperity.
Just then, the envoy from the Great Silver Kingdom arrived again.
The emperor found Zhu's envoy extremely troublesome.
The Emperor said, "Envoy Zhu, haven't the grievances between our two countries already been settled?"
Envoy Zhu smiled amiably at the Emperor and said, "Your Majesty has misunderstood. We are not here to cause trouble. We are here to seek your cooperation!"
Emperor: "Cooperation?"
Envoy Zhu: "I have heard that your country has produced some precious items. Our Emperor wishes to purchase some, and the price is negotiable."
Your Majesty: I wondered what they came for. Turns out it's for this. The Empress said those things are quite profitable.
Seeing that the emperor remained silent, Zhu, the envoy, assumed that the emperor did not want to sell to them.
The envoy, Zhu, grew anxious and said, "Your Majesty, we are willing to pay a higher price, as long as we can buy it."
The Emperor said, "Very well! Then I will grant Envoy Zhu's request! Crown Prince! Prepare some high-end products for Envoy Zhu!"
Crown Prince: "Yes, Father! Please come with me."
The envoy followed the crown prince to the production factory.
He was so surprised that his mouth dropped open when he saw the exquisite glass products, perfumes, soaps, and other things he had never seen before.
Envoy Zhu: "These things are wonderful! Can we have two hundred of each? No, five hundred of each! The cheapest soap costs ten thousand!"
The crown prince was overjoyed.
The Great Silver Kingdom had previously exploited the Dragon Kingdom quite a bit.
It's time for them to pay their dues.
Seeing that the Crown Prince did not answer, Envoy Zhu cautiously asked again, "Your Highness, are we asking for too much? We can pay more! Is that alright?"
The prince said, "Alright! How about we sign a contract first? Once you've paid the full amount, we'll deliver the goods to you."
Envoy Zhu beamed with joy: "Good, good, good! We must cooperate for the long term!"
The crown prince nodded, smiled, and said, "Alright! Definitely!"
In order to successfully complete the order from the Great Silver Kingdom, the Emperor specially ordered Qi Junlin to supervise the construction and issued an edict appointing him as the Crown Prince's tutor.
When other countries heard that the Great Silver Kingdom had purchased priceless treasures from the Dragon Kingdom, they followed suit and all came to the Dragon Kingdom to pay their respects.
In order to safeguard the capital, the Emperor also officially appointed Qi Junxian as the Commander of the Imperial Guard.
All three sons were successful, and people flocked to curry favor with Xu Ruyun.
When Xiao Zhenzhen found out, she was furious.
In order to stop Xu Ruyun's family from living a life of luxury, the eldest prince and Qi Jinlan have already started plotting something wicked.
In the dead of night, the eldest prince sent his men to the inn where the envoys from various countries were resting.
A man in black poured a packet of medicine into their bowls of food.
When the man in black reported back to the eldest prince, the prince smiled slyly: "These are all deadly poisons. After these messengers are all poisoned to death, let's see how the crown prince will handle the situation!"
Chirp was fast asleep when she was suddenly jolted awake.
[Oh no! If I'm not mistaken, the Crown Prince will poison all the envoys from various countries at the post station tomorrow morning.]
At that time, all countries will unite to wage war against our Dragon Kingdom.
Once war breaks out, the people will suffer greatly and their lives will be filled with misery.
Then the eldest prince will seize the throne amidst the chaos. No, no! I absolutely cannot allow that to happen!
Thinking about it, Qiuqiu quickly shook her head, hurriedly put on her clothes, and woke up Xiaofeng, who was already asleep beside her bed.
Chirp: "Little Phoenix, wake up! We need to go to the inn!"
Xiao Feng rubbed her sleepy eyes, looked outside and said, "Master, what are you doing at the inn so late?"
Chirp: "Hurry! It'll be too late if it gets light!"
Seeing her master's anxious expression, Xiao Feng knew something was wrong, so she nodded and flew towards the inn with Qiu Qiu on her back.
Everyone in the inn was fast asleep.
Chirp chirped quietly as it searched for poison.
Where would they put the poison? In the water? In the food? In the food itself?
However, after checking them one by one, Qiuqiu and Xiaofeng found nothing unusual.
As dawn broke, the sky gradually brightened.
Chirp started to get anxious.
What should we do? What should we do?
