Chapter 85 Eavesdropping

Seeing that the princess turned back, Feng Qi was delighted. Now it was good, he didn't have to rack his brains to figure it out in the future.

The first place Qin Chuchu came to was a pastry shop and bought some cakes and oil tea noodles.

After coming out, I went to a snack shop and a grocery store and bought some food.

Looking at the red shopping bag in his hand, Feng Qi was full of curiosity.

The princess has a lot of good things. This thing is really useful. It can hold so many things. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to carry it now.

After visiting more than ten shops, Feng Qi saw that he could no longer carry all the things in his hands, so he decided to go back.

"Princess, there's still one place we haven't visited yet!"

Feng Qi stopped in front of Qin Chuchu and stared at the roast chicken shop in front.

I haven't eaten roast chicken for some time. Now my master is so stingy that I can only count on the princess if I want to eat it.

Following his gaze, Qin Chuchu looked towards the roast chicken shop and rolled her eyes speechlessly.

This guy really thought of herself as an ATM, but she still said nothing and just walked over.

Although he went there with dissatisfaction, when he got there and smelled the roast chicken, he sniffed hard.

This smells really good,

"Boss, how much is this roast chicken?"

"30 coins each."

As the boss spoke, he looked at Qin Chuchu, whose face was completely covered by dog ​​hair. If you didn't listen to what she said, you really couldn't tell what kind of person she was.

Although the weather is quite cold today, this person is wearing too much.

While he was pondering in his heart, Qin Chuchu's voice came to his ears.

"Give me five!"

Feng Qi on the side grinned. The princess was very generous. Five roast chickens were enough to eat for several meals.

"What?" The boss was stunned.

He looked at Qin Chuchu carefully again. Although this person did not look like a poor person, he did not expect him to be so generous.

Even those wealthy families only buy one or two at a time, not like the person in front of me who wants five at a time.

"Why? Is it not enough?"

Qin Chuchu didn't understand why the boss had such an expression.

"Enough, enough, I'll get it for you right away!"

The boss came to his senses and smiled so much that his ears were stretched out. He ran to the kitchen while talking.

After a while, five steaming roast chickens were brought out.

Wrap each roast chicken with oil paper and tie it with a rope.

Qin Chuchu paid the money and was about to ask Feng Qi to take the roast chicken when she realized that his eyes were staring straight at the street intersection.

Following his gaze, I saw a middle-aged man getting off a luxurious carriage.

She didn't know him, but the look in her eyes showed that she knew Feng Qi.

"Who is that person?"

She pointed at the middle-aged man and originally wanted to ask Feng Qi, but the one who answered was the owner of the roast chicken shop.

"That person's name is Zhou Quan. He has the final say in the entire Qingzhou and the Far North."

"Hmm? Isn't this the fiefdom of the Morning King?"

Qin Chuchu looked at the owner of the roast chicken shop curiously. This was the fiefdom of the living King of Hell, so he should have the final say.

"It's true that it's the fief of King Chen, but he's always lived in the capital. It's Zhou Quan who's the local emperor here, ah!"

Although this place is under the jurisdiction of King Chen, Zhou Quan has the final say on all matters here.

In their hearts, Zhou Quan is the master here.

"So, this Mr. Zhou is quite powerful?"

Qin Chuchu frowned, looking at the boss' helpless expression, as if there was some hidden secret.

"Amazing, of course it's amazing. He has absolute power. I don't know if it was ordered by the King of Morning or what, but the taxes have increased three times this year.

You can see my business is doing very poorly. If I don't do it, my whole family will starve. In this world, it's really impossible for us ordinary people to survive."

After the boss finished speaking, he sighed again with a bitter look on his face.

Nowadays, business is getting harder and harder, but taxes are still increasing. If this continues, I’m afraid my family won’t even be able to afford porridge.

“…………”Qin Chuchu.

She stared at Zhou Quan standing outside the carriage, and felt a surge of anger in her heart again.

Once again, I think that the Living King of Hell is just a guy with a good look but no brains, and his management ability is too poor. He doesn't even come to inspect his own fiefdom, but allows his subordinates to do whatever they want.

As she watched, her brows furrowed again. Why was Zhou Quan acting so sneaky?

Just when he was about to turn around and ask Feng Qi, he saw that he also looked confused. Of course he knew Zhou Quan. He was the one who received Zhou Quan every time he came to inspect on behalf of his master.

But seeing that he was acting so suspiciously now, it seemed like something was up.

Feng Qi was looking at me with the same look in his eyes. What else was there to ask? It seemed like he was thinking the same thing as me.

Qin Chuchu looked towards the street intersection again and saw Zhou Quan looking around for a long time before running towards a carriage in front.

She also looked at the carriage. There were several men dressed as guards standing outside. They were obviously officials.

Logically speaking, Zhou Quan should be the local tyrant here, so why is he still acting so sneaky?

Strong curiosity forced her to move closer, but after taking only two steps she turned back, picked up a roast chicken and walked over again.

"Wang..." Feng Qi was about to call Qin Chuchu, but was stopped by her.

"Shh!"

Qin Chuchu made a gesture to him to keep quiet, then pulled down her dog-skin hat and ran over with the roast chicken in her hand.

“…………”Feng Qi.

He was extremely anxious and wanted to call out to the princess, but he was afraid of being seen by Zhou Quan, after all, he knew him.

But if I don't call her, given the princess's personality, I'm really afraid that she will cause trouble.

After considering for a moment, he hid in the corner of the store and observed first. If nothing worked, he would go out.

At this moment, Qin Chuchu had already arrived and stopped beside the carriage, carrying a roast chicken.

The four guards standing outside looked at her warily.

This guy is dressed like a big white bear. Could he be trying to gather information?

Qin Chuchu acted as if she didn't see anything. She held the roast chicken in her hand, stomped her feet and moved closer to the carriage, looking like she was cold and wanted to stay in the wind.

“………” Feng Qi’s heart was in his throat.

How could someone eavesdrop so closely? The princess's ear was almost touching the carriage.

It’s no wonder the master said the princess was a little silly. Most people really can’t understand her way of thinking.

However, this also has its advantages. The four guards guarding outside looked at Qin Chuchu for a long time and finally withdrew their gaze.

Seeing her carrying the roast chicken and stretching her neck to look into the street, she must be waiting for someone.

If she is driven away, it will easily arouse other people's suspicion. It is better to let her stand there.

There is just one thing I can't understand: he was wearing such warm clothes but still freezing like a bear.

Qin Chuchu didn't know what others were thinking, and she stamped her feet and pretended to be cold.

He stretched his neck to look at the street he came from, pretending to be looking for someone.

But his ears were perked up, listening to the movements in the carriage.

I came here out of curiosity, but when I heard the familiar voice in the carriage

After hearing the voice, he was stunned for a moment.

"How's the money preparation going?"
