Seeing everyone silent and staring at him like idiots, Zhao Cheng paused for a moment and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with what you said?"
"No problem!" Xiao Luomu was the first to react, quickly clapping his hands and saying, "Applause!!"
"No problem!!"
"Well said!!"
Everyone applauded.
Zhao Wu pursed his lips and whispered to Dong Hua, "They've all been fooled by their master."
Xiao Luomu composed himself and asked, "Then... how did you and the Wine Immortal collaborate?"
"Of course, we'll give him shares!"
Zhao Cheng stood on the table and said, "I will provide manpower, money, and food, and share the profits with him. He will not interfere with my business, and I will not disturb him from writing his book!"
Xiao Luomu thought for a moment and then asked, "Then why did you choose to build a winery in Hannan City?"
"Because I don't understand business, but my good brother Xiao Luomu does! Xiao Luomu just happened to have founded a chamber of commerce, so I hitched a ride with him. I didn't give him the recipe, I just provided the immortal wine. I was in charge of production, and Xiao Luomu was in charge of sales!"
"Good brothers, let's make money together!"
"I believe Brother Xiao won't treat me unfairly, and he won't let me be unable to earn money to support my wife and children..."
"That's enough, that's enough..." Xiao Luomu pulled Zhao Cheng down and said, "If you keep acting like this, it'll be too much!"
Cai Yilu laughed the most, cupping his hands and saying, "Young Prime Minister, you are truly a good actor. You remind me of the scene where Wang Yuluan beat up Zhou Jinghuan."
Zhao Cheng jumped off the table and sighed, "Making a living isn't easy..."
With that, Zhao Cheng picked up his wine cup and said, "From now on, everyone will perform their duties and share weal and woe. I'd like to toast everyone!"
"drink!!!"
Bang bang bang—
Just then, a loud crashing sound came, followed by someone banging on the door.
Zheng Hongxiu raised an eyebrow, got up to open the door, and angrily said, "What are you doing?!"
"Aunt Zheng, someone has broken in!"
"Who dares to be so bold?!"
"She said she was...the eldest princess!!"
brush!!
Everyone stood up and looked at Zhao Cheng.
Zhao Cheng quickly gave Zhao Wu a wink and said, "Only you can stop Heng Wenhao!"
Zhao Wu nodded and said, "Donghua, take the master to the back door."
Just as Zhao Wu took one step outside, he saw Heng Wenhao had already climbed to the fourth floor and was running rapidly towards him.
Seeing Zhao Wu about to draw his sword, Heng Wenhao laughed and said, "Brother Zhao Wu, we'll have plenty of opportunities to spar. There's no need to draw your sword here, is there?"
As he spoke, Heng Wenhao peeked inside and saw Zhao Cheng's hurried figure. He shouted, "Your Highness, the Prince Consort is inside, trying to escape!"
Upon hearing this, Atao, who had just accompanied Yuan Yun upstairs, suddenly rushed into the room next to her, kicked open the window, and blocked Zhao Cheng's way.
Zhao Wu stared at A Tao intently, paused for a moment, and said, "You've got some skills..."
Yuan Yun walked in through the window that A Tao had kicked open and smiled slightly at Zhao Cheng.
Zhao Cheng scratched the back of his head and laughed, "Darling, if you miss me, you can just send someone to call me. Why make such a fuss?!"
Yuan Yun ignored Zhao Cheng and glanced at everyone in the room, her eyes growing increasingly surprised. Especially when she saw Wu Sisi, a look of relief appeared on her face.
"Have you finished talking?"
"We've finished talking."
"go home."
After speaking, Yuan Yun turned around gracefully and walked downstairs.
Zhao Cheng glanced back and saw that everyone was clasping their hands in greeting to him, giving him a look of sympathy that seemed to say, "Take good care of yourself."
When Zhao Cheng and Yuan Yun returned to their room, it was already dark.
After sending Atao and Donghua away, only the two of them remained in the room. Yuan Yun sat in a chair, pointed to her shoulder, and said, "My hands are a little sore from massaging Mother's shoulders these past few days. Come over and massage them for me too."
"Yes!" Zhao Cheng quickly ran over.
"Be gentle."
"Okay!"
"Pour me a glass of water first."
"immediately!"
Yuan Yun closed her eyes and enjoyed the moment for a while. Seeing that Zhao Cheng remained silent, she spoke first: "I heard from the Prefect's wife that the most famous business in Yanchuan City is the sex trade. There's a Red Sleeve Pavilion and a club, which are well-known far and wide. Men from the surrounding counties of Yanchuan like to travel a long way to have fun."
"What kind of prostitution is this? Don't put it so harshly..."
"You dare to do it, and you're afraid of what people will say? I only knew that the club was yours before, but I didn't expect that the Red Sleeve Pavilion was also yours. You're really something. The two most famous places in Yanchuan City were both created by you. You're the king of the flesh trade!"
Zhao Cheng explained, "It was wrong of me to keep this from you, but it's precisely because this business deal doesn't sound good that I didn't dare tell you."
Yuan Yun asked, "Is it because the business of selling sex doesn't sound good that you didn't tell me? And is it because the business of selling picture albums doesn't sound good that you didn't tell me either?"
Zhao Cheng's pupils suddenly contracted!
Sensing Zhao Cheng pause, Yuan Yun sneered, "Do you think you can hide it?"
Zhao Cheng's mind raced, then he nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, yes, yes... I didn't intend to keep it from you forever, but it really is because it doesn't sound good, so I kept thinking about how to tell you..."
Yuan Yun picked up her teacup, took a sip of water, and said, "The serialized novel has a very good reputation, so why didn't you tell me?"
Zhao Cheng was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized that the bookstore had probably been captured!
Yuan Yun went to the bookstore!
"Zhao Cheng, how many things are you hiding from me?"
Yuan Yun turned around, looked at Zhao Cheng, and said, "I'll give you a chance to confess."
Zhao Cheng fell silent.
Yuan Yun continued, "Since you know my past, you should understand my abilities and determination. If you are honest with me and don't hide anything from me, then whatever you say is true. If you ask me to investigate, I'm afraid I'll find out even more."
Zhao Cheng knew that Yuan Yun was telling the truth.
Seven years ago, Yuan Yun, who was only sixteen years old, earned Zhao Huan's respect.
At that time, Zhao Huan was in his prime, holding a high position and wielding great power, so earning his respect was no easy feat.
In front of Yuan Yun, Zhao Cheng felt that even his identity as a transmigrator wasn't very useful.
Never go against her...
"And soap and toilet water, Dongji Trading Company is also mine."
After a moment's thought, Zhao Cheng realized that instead of constantly keeping it a secret, it was better to take this opportunity to tell her. If Yuan Yun approved and supported it, it would be a great help to the Chamber of Commerce. If she had doubts, after all, they were already husband and wife, and Zhao Cheng would use her silver tongue to win her over.
If you can't conquer it... think of another approach, another way!
To her surprise, Yuan Yun smiled slightly and said, "I know that. Tell me something I don't know."
"You know? How did you know??" Zhao Cheng was stunned again, thinking, "Are you trying to scam me?"
Yuan Yun actually pulled open her outer garment, revealing the corner of her bra, and asked, "Does it look good?"
Do I need to explain it in more detail?
