Upon hearing this, Cen Xi's face instantly darkened. Damn it, as expected, all men are lustful. Given the opportunity, they will spare no effort to think of those filthy things.
It seems that keeping this person around is useless; he'll only annoy her.
So Cen Xi went in, picked up a rope, tied Chen Dahei up, and dragged him outside.
On her first day after arriving at the mountain, Cen Xi felt that there should be wild animals in the mountains. Since this dead man wanted to mate with people so much, she would let him mate with those wild animals.
She originally intended to spare his life, but he himself seemed to want to die, so she couldn't blame her for being ruthless.
The stronghold was built on the mountaintop, so Cen Xi dragged Chen Dahei all the way to the edge of the cliff, raised his foot, and kicked him off the cliff.
"Aaaaaah!"
"Oh my god!"
Just as Cen Xi kicked Chen Dahei off the cliff, the Wen family's steward led a group of people up the mountain.
Upon witnessing this scene, they were so shocked that they dropped the gold they were carrying.
They all screamed in surprise, their faces filled with shock and disbelief; clearly, what they were witnessing was too shocking.
Cen Xi, on the other hand, did a series of clean and efficient actions. After watching the Wen family carry several boxes of gold up the mountain, she was so happy that she danced with joy.
"You've arrived! I was worried that the batch of Yun brocade was important to you. I was afraid you wouldn't come."
"Aaaaaaah!"
Upon seeing her approach, the Wen family servants were thrown into chaos again. Even the eldest son of the Wen family paled, let alone the manager.
Am I really that scary?
Cen Xi looked displeased.
"No...no...Miss! I...I brought my young master and a thousand taels...a thousand taels of gold with me."
Seeing her approach, the shopkeeper quickly stammered an explanation.
“Young lady, Old Zhang said you have a business deal to discuss with the Wen family. I’ve come up the mountain with sincerity. Here you go.”
Seeing that Manager Zhang was so frightened that his face turned pale.
The young master of the Wen family quickly stepped in front of her and calmly said...
"Aren't you afraid of me? You didn't look well just now."
Cen Xi was stopped, but instead of being angry, she laughed.
"I was just shocked by your kick, so I was a little surprised. You haven't used any force, so I'm not afraid. Besides, since you want to talk business with us, you won't do anything to us. If I keep being timid, you'll laugh at me."
Wen Qi looked closely at Cen Xi's smiling face.
"Gentle and refined, a true gentleman, not bad, not bad, just my type. How about we skip business and I marry you? Are you married yet?"
Cen Xi looked at him and thought that he was good-looking and spoke so gently, so he must be a good man. So she asked him.
"I'm sorry, young lady, I'm already married. If I were to make you my concubine, I'm afraid it would be unfair to you."
Wen Qi covered her lips and smiled.
"Oh? Do you have a concubine?"
Cen Xi looked at her and asked again.
"No, my wife and I are deeply in love. I promised her that I would never take a concubine."
Wen Qixi still wore a faint smile, his every move exuding the air of a noble young master.
"Hmm! Not bad, indeed a good man, no wonder I took a liking to him at first sight. It's a pity we're not meant to be. Shall we continue our business?"
Cen Xi looked him up and down, gave him a serious evaluation, and then got back to the main topic.
"Alright! May we talk inside? I noticed that you are dressed too lightly, young lady. Although it is spring now, Shangyang City is not comparable to the North, but it is still quite cold. I'm afraid you will catch a cold if you stay out in the cold for too long."
Wen Qi continued.
"Alright! But my brothers are determined to poison me today, so please forgive me for the poor hospitality, Young Master Wen."
Cen Xi clapped her hands with a smile and gestured for them to proceed.
“I understand. Xiao Ke has also been chased by robbers. In times of danger, he even slept in a cowshed. He doesn’t care about these details.”
Wen Qixi spoke softly as always.
Cen Xi thought that this young man was not only good-looking and had a pleasant voice, but he was also good to his wife and had a sense of responsibility. He was a really good man, and she thought that she would not lose money if she did business with him in the future.
So she toned down her sharp edge and led the person to a side hall next to the council hall for a talk.
After his men were all seated, Cen Xi went straight to the point and asked:
"Is the young master in the fabric business?"
"Make it into clothes too! I wonder what you mean, young lady?"
Wen Qi looked closely at Cen Xi and asked probingly.
"Wait a minute, I'm going to get something!"
Upon learning that Wen Qixi also made clothes, Cen Xi's eyes lit up, and she was already waiting to unleash her big move.
"Please do as you please, young lady. I will be waiting."
Wen Qi smiled, her delicate eyebrows and eyes showing no sign of being slighted.
"Okay! Please wait a moment."
After saying that, Cen Xi ran away in a flash.
After she had walked away, the shopkeeper spoke to Wen Qi in detail:
"Young master, this girl is clearly not a good person, and she has no manners whatsoever. We're on her turf, and she didn't even offer us a cup of tea. So lacking in etiquette, yet she dares to dream of marrying you. Young master, do you really think someone like that would want to do business with you?"
"Uncle Zhang! You'd better not say such things again. The girl said she wanted to marry me, but it was just a casual remark. I don't think she has any improper thoughts about me. We're on someone else's turf now, so we need to be careful what we say. Don't forget, this is Feifeng Mountain, and we still have a batch of Yun brocade in her hands."
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, Wen Qixi's expression instantly turned sour, and he began to reprimand him.
"But! Young master, she's just a woman, do you really believe she has any good business to do with us?"
The innkeeper had clearly forgotten how terrified he had been when he went up the mountain. Now, all he remembered was that women couldn't achieve great things, and young masters shouldn't associate with them.
“Uncle Zhang! You should retire from now on and let Zhang Cheng take over your position. This matter was not handled well. Although I can help you a little, I can't silence the gossip. You should go back and enjoy your retirement. Don't worry, you have done so many things for our Wen family for so many years. We will give you a pension in the future.”
Seeing that he still didn't understand, Wen Qi had no choice but to reluctantly say something.
"Young Master!"
The shopkeeper knelt down with a thud, his face filled with grief.
"Do you think I punished you too harshly?"
"This old servant dares not!"
"Do you think the people in this mountain stronghold can respect that girl from earlier? And what about the people in the council hall next door? Will they die without a burial place like the person we saw when we came up the mountain?"
"As long as we don't listen to that girl, it's very possible!"
The shopkeeper thought for a moment and replied.
"So you still know that? Are you still going to look down on her? Are we still going to let our Wen family's goods pass through Feifeng Mountain? Can we get back all the Yun brocade we were going to send to the capital?"
Wen Qi asked with a chilling tone.
"I…"
The shopkeeper was speechless for a moment.
"Since you can't explain it, let's hand it over when we get back!"
Wen Qixi didn't say anything more and just waved her hand lazily.
"I didn't expect Young Master Wen to have such a clear understanding of the situation. What am I going to do if I like you even more now?"
Cen Xi overheard something from the corner of the wall, picked up a booklet, and slowly walked inside.
