Chapter 937 We are professional at showing off our wealth

Su Nuan's eyebrows curved and she smiled peacefully, "Yes, I am the queen."

Ouyang Wenzhu stared at Su Nuan blankly, her eyes falling on her belly. She asked in surprise, "Two?"

Su Nuan said with some pride: "Four."

Ouyang Wenzhu completely forgot that she looked down on Ling Yun just a moment ago. She murmured to herself, "This man is quite good at giving birth."

Su Nuan looked at Ouyang Wenzhu. This woman was quite interesting, but she killed people indiscriminately, which was unforgivable.

She asked, "Miss Ouyang, let's talk business now."

Ouyang Wenzhu stared at Su Nuan blankly. She wanted to find fault, but Su Nuan was really beautiful and she really couldn't compare to her.

Although Su Nuan was dressed simply because she was pregnant, the nine-tailed phoenix hairpin on her head looked extraordinary.

Each tail of the phoenix was inlaid with gems, and it shone with colorful light in the sunlight.

The beads held in the phoenix's mouth are also extraordinary, like dewdrops in the fairy palace, exuding a sacred breath.

The style of Su Nuan's clothes was very unique, and the fabric looked very comfortable and thin, something she had never seen before.

The more she looked at it, the more inferior she felt. This was what a queen of a country should look like. Her background was not enough.

Seeing her looking at her, Su Nuan didn't say anything, but just smiled gently.

Ouyang Wenzhu was a little dazed, as if she saw a goddess descending to earth, and she had the urge to kneel down.

Lu Bayue walked to Su Nuan, hugged her arm, and said affectionately: "Sister, I'm hungry."

Su Nuan smiled dotingly and said, "I have some snacks here, you can have some to fill your stomach."

Lu Bayue took the plate from Su Nuan's hand, pinched the flower pastry inside and stuffed it into his mouth.

Ouyang Wenzhu's mind suddenly twitched, and she shouted, "How can you just eat anything given by the Queen? Aren't you afraid of being poisoned or having a miscarriage?"

Lu Bayue stuffed her mouth with a snack and mumbled, "Mud pancake!"

Su Nuan laughed, "She's right to worry, because in the eyes of others, the harem should be full of gunpowder and calculations."

Lu Bayue swallowed the snack and said, "That's right. The harem of the West Sea Kingdom is a complete mess. Not to mention eating, even drinking water can be poisoned to death."

"But I come here and eat well, sleep well, and do whatever I want. It's very comfortable."

"By the way, others would never have guessed that my sister gave me several shops to run."

"But my sister gives me too much money and jewelry every day. I don't even know where to spend the money I earn."

Su Nuan smiled and said, "If you don't have a place to spend it, just throw it into the pond. It's nice to hear the sound."

The two of them sang the same tune here, which stunned Ouyang Wenzhu. She had no idea that Su Nuan and Lu Bayue were professional show-offs of wealth.

At this moment, Ouyang Wenzhu changed her mind again. She suddenly felt that being a concubine in Sifang Kingdom was a lucky thing.

Even if you are not favored by the emperor, it is worth staying just for the safety.

She smiled bitterly, her original pride was shattered by the blow. Where should she go?

Go back? Her mother would definitely be angry, maybe even kill her and replace her with someone else.

Stay? She couldn't compare to Su Nuan in any way. How could she have the nerve to stay?

Su Nuan saw Ouyang Wenzhu's concerns and said with a smile, "All the houses in our Sifang Imperial City are rented out. You can rent a house to live in."

"Everyone in the Imperial City will be unconditionally protected, but if there are conflicts among those living within the city, they must be resolved through official channels."

"If you don't have money, you can apply for a job. I think you're familiar with seafood, so why not sell it?"

Ouyang Wenzhu's face turned pale. Working as a clerk selling goods? She was like a princess, so how could she greet people with a smile?

She shook her head and said, "No, I can't do it."

Seeing that Su Nuan had finished belittling him, Lu Bayue continued to say, "Sister, you forgot one thing."

"Didn't you complain last time that there were too many ornaments like snail beads, oyster beads, and pearls?"

Su Nuan pretended to be confused and nodded, "Yeah, I threw them all away, what's wrong?"

Ouyang Wenzhu felt a pang of pain in her heart and cursed inwardly, "You're a spendthrift."

Lu Bayue smiled and said, "I thought the city folk would like it, so I collected it and sent it to the shop."

"But I can't set a price for them. Those things are worthless to us, so I don't know what's a reasonable price to sell them for."

"If Miss Ouyang has nowhere to go, I can arrange for her to go there and help with the pricing of the goods without having to show up in public."

Su Nuan shook her head in embarrassment, "She won't agree. Besides, I don't know how to pay her."

Ling Yun, who was standing by, was very unhappy after being ignored for a long time. He coughed dryly and said, "How about 10,000 taels a month?"

Lu Bayue quickly shook her head, "No, no, what if she arbitrarily sets the price and makes a profit from it?"

"Let's just send it back. At worst, we can ask them to send a more obedient woman."

Su Nuan agreed: "Yes, we can ask them to send someone who is familiar with seafood and well-behaved to be a nominal concubine."

"So I'll give her all the seafood I have to sort, and if she finds anything she likes, I'll give it to her as payment."

Lu Bayue nodded very cooperatively, "Yes, that's it. Send someone who is easy to get along with."

Ling Yun asked gloomily, "Have you asked for my opinion?"

Su Nuan and Lu Bayue said in unison: "No need, don't interfere in the affairs of the harem."

Ling Yun touched his nose. This fictional harem was not good at all. He should have insisted on not having concubines in the first place.

Ouyang Wenzhu was not a fool. She felt that being a concubine in the Sifang Kingdom would bring her safety, freedom and wealth.

She immediately looked at Ling Yun and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to stay. You can grant me any title of consort."

Ling Yun frowned and asked, "Why should I agree?"

Ouyang Wenzhu's face turned pale again. She felt that all her advantages had become insignificant.

"I...I can ask for more dowry."

Su Nuan chuckled, "Our emperor doesn't need your dowry, do you think this offer can impress us?"

Ouyang Wenzhu stared at Su Nuan in a daze. Su Nuan leaned on Ling Yun's shoulder very naturally.

The expression on her face was lazy and peaceful, but it made people unable to look down on her.

She smiled bitterly, "I...I no longer have any conditions to negotiate."

Su Nuan glanced at Ling Yun sideways, and her small hands gently pinched the soft flesh on his waist.

Ling Yun felt his wife's little gesture and a bright smile appeared on his face.

But now he had to get down to business, so he could only look at Ouyang Wenzhu reluctantly and say, "I will write to the city lord tomorrow to renegotiate the terms."

"But I think there's nothing more to discuss. After all, it's not difficult for me to have a seaside city. I can just build it directly."

Ouyang Wenzhu trembled all over, and her last bit of pride was shattered at this moment, because she believed that Ling Yun could rebuild the city.

Her legs went weak and she knelt on the ground, her tone pleading, "Please don't chase me away!"
