Chapter 396 Tang Dingsheng



Anle ordered a pot of fruit wine, tasted it, and clicked her tongue. This fruit wine was similar to grape wine, and the taste was okay, but it was still not as good as the one from her hometown in Jincheng.

Bai Naijiong, who had tasted the fine wines of Jincheng, naturally understood this.

"Although it is a very famous wine in the capital, it is probably not presentable in Jincheng. It is a pity that the fine wine from Jincheng cannot flow to my capital. Otherwise, I would definitely let these famous families taste what real fine wine is."

Upon hearing Bai Naijiong's words, Anle's eyes darted around as she glanced at the tavern.

There weren't many people staying in the tavern to drink; usually, it was maids and servants from noble families who came to buy wine for their masters and then took it away.

So their drinking here was quite conspicuous, and their words were clearly heard in the tavern, clearly heard by the men at the next table.

"What? Jincheng? What makes that refugee slum in Jincheng compare to what's in our capital?"

Bai Naijiong smiled but didn't say anything, but Yan Qingxue couldn't help but stand up and speak for Jin Cheng, "You kid, don't be unconvinced. The things in Jin Cheng's place are indeed incomparable to those in the capital."

It may have been a refugee slum in the past, but things are different now.

Before making these comments, this country bumpkin who never leaves his house should go and take a look at Jincheng first.

"Once you go and see for yourself in Jincheng, and then come back, you'll be speechless. It'll sound like a joke."

The boy was enraged by Yan Qingxue.

"You dare say that my capital city is inferior to that slum in Jincheng? Does that slum in Jincheng need my capital city to provide relief?"

Seeing the boy's foolish and ignorant look, Yan Qingxue was too lazy to argue with him anymore, feeling it was a waste of breath. She thought that when he actually went to see it for himself, he would naturally appreciate the scenery of Jincheng.

"Instead of wasting time arguing with me here, you should go to Jincheng and see for yourself, you frog in a well." Yan Qingxue drank the fruit wine in her cup.

His gaze was fixed on the cup.

Compared to the glass cups from Jincheng, this cup suddenly doesn't taste as delicious.

At least, it's not pleasing to the eye at all.

"Lele, shall we take the rest of these to drink? It's no fun drinking them here. You haven't seen the Forbidden City in the capital yet, have you?"

Let's go for a stroll over there.

Anle was suspicious.

"Can we go in?"

Yan Qingxue pouted, "Of course not, but we can still go for a drive outside."

The boy, whose face turned red from Yan Qingxue's retort, suddenly stood up and strode over to Yan Qingxue.

"It seems you're from Jincheng. You're speaking so highly of Jincheng, so I'll go with you to Jincheng and see for yourself. What if it's not like what you say?" Lately, he had been hearing his father and the others talking about Jincheng.

He had been to Jincheng a couple of times before. Although it wasn't bad, it certainly couldn't compare to the prosperity of the capital.

Moreover, Jincheng has long since become a refugee slum. Since the natural disaster and the rampant plague, Jincheng has been completely ruined.

Even though it has been taken over by Islaile.

Unless Islael possesses the power to turn decay into magic, it is impossible for him to transform such a golden city into a place more prosperous than the capital, at least not within the next ten years.

Yan Qingxue was stunned for a moment. Go to Jincheng with her?

This kid?

Are you out of your mind? If you want to go, go by yourself! What are you going with her for? Looks like you want to gamble with her.

"Judging from your clothes, you must come from a prestigious family, or at least a well-to-do family. You should have enough money for your journey. If you want to go, you can go by yourself. Don't come with me."

"Hmph, scared now?"

Yan Qingxue slammed her hand on the table, stood up abruptly, looked at the boy, and sneered.

"Scared? Everything I said is true. What's there to be afraid of? Fine, if you want to follow, then follow. If Jincheng is indeed as I said, more prosperous than the capital."

"What should you do then?" The current Jincheng is definitely not comparable to the capital. Since the Linghe Commercial District was established in Jincheng, it has become so lively that famous families from all over Tianqi have gone there to visit and play.

If you initially went there out of curiosity but ended up staying and enjoying the sights, it's because you were captivated by the dazzling array of delicious food and beautiful decorations in Jincheng, and most of you are repeat customers.

Not only people from Tianqi, but also royalty and nobles from Islael often travel to Jincheng. She even saw people from the Kingdom of Kro come to pay homage.

Because it was located at the intersection of the three kingdoms, it had become the preferred place for the royal families, nobles, and prominent clans of the three kingdoms to enjoy themselves.

What business does she have in the Tianqi Imperial Capital?

Compared to Jincheng, the capital of Tianqi is completely insignificant.

Moreover, Jincheng's development is intensifying and has expanded rapidly, extending to surrounding towns.

Judging from this trend, it seems that in the future, the entire city of Jincheng will live up to its name and become a true 'Jincheng'!

The boy was stunned by Yan Qingxue's fierce, rooster-like aura, and then raised his chin.

“Alright, let’s make a bet. If it’s as you say, I, Tang Dingsheng, will be your servant for a hundred days. If it’s as I say, you will be my maid for a hundred days.”

Yan Qingxue picked at her ear, looking thoughtful. It would be really nice to have a servant to do things for free.

You can get it for free without spending any money.

That's a pretty good deal.

"Hmm... only a hundred days? That's too short a time. Three years! How about three years?" Yan Qingxue was determined to fleece this kid and teach him a lesson.

This kind of hothead is a free lunch.

Seeing Tang Dingsheng hesitate for a moment, Yan Qingxue sneered and provoked him.

"What? You're scared now? Has your pride in the capital shaken?"

"Let's gamble!"

Yan Qingxue raised an eyebrow, smiled maliciously, and tilted her chin up.

"Alright, let's put it in writing as proof."

Bai Naijiong glanced at Tang Dingsheng. This kid claims to be surnamed Tang. Could he be someone from the Tang family?

The Tang family is one of the thirteen prestigious families.

They are also someone you shouldn't mess with.

They are very popular in the capital, even more so than the Su and Feng families, and their popularity has even surpassed that of the Bai family.

Won't openly ripping people off here offend the Tang family?
