Chapter 299 I Never Expected That



"Okay." Madam Shen nodded, "Then wait a little longer."

As we were talking, several more families sent in visiting cards.

The attention of the female members of the Shen family was all attracted by the visiting cards, and they gathered together to chatter about these noble families.

It just so happened that the female masters around them were very familiar with the various families in Qianhuang City, and they broke it down and analyzed it with the female members of the Shen family.

Shen Yong walked out of Madam Shen's yard and breathed a sigh of relief.

He stumbled upon this by accident, but fortunately the result was good.

Otherwise, if the women of the Shen family were really disappointed in him, it would not be easy to increase their dependence on him in the future.

Chen Yong sighed in fear, he almost lost the big picture for the small one.

He can't go to places like brothels until his dependence value is full.

Even if you want to go, you have to do it quietly and not let anyone find out...

........

Deng Hao, who was half dead, knelt in front of the prefectural yamen for three days before he was finally exempted from the kneeling punishment.

In the past few days, Deng Hao almost lost half his life and lost more than 30 kilograms.

The young masters who followed Deng Hao into Chen Yong's room that day all presented visiting cards and gifts to apologize.

Chen Yong accepted all the gifts sent, but as for the people-----he disappeared!

"Your Majesty, a large number of people from White Dragon City have arrived at the city gate."

Sun Ren received the news from the soldiers guarding the city and hurried over to report.

"The leader is Zhao Tongpan of Bailong City. He said he came to fetch water on the orders of King Qianhuang."

"How many people are there?"

"There were more than 4,000 people, four of them pulling a cart filled with buckets."

Chen Yong played with the Tian Huang three-link seal, raised his eyebrows and looked at Sun Ren,

"Let them go into the city and get water nearby."

There are many ditches on the open space formed by the expansion of the South City Gate, which were originally dug to facilitate the use of water in the construction of the city wall.

There was plenty of water in those canals, enough for Zhao Tongpan to use.

But I have to say that Zhao Tongpan is really slow.

It took so many geniuses to bring the people here, and it probably took a lot of time to collect all the carts in the city.

More than a thousand carts...

The water we brought back was tough enough to drink, so we had to make a few more trips.

"Yes." Sun Ren responded and immediately turned around and ran out to inform the soldiers guarding the city.

Chen Yong took out the intercom and called,

"Ji Yongjia, have you reached the south gate of Bailong City?"

After a burst of crackling sounds, Ji Yongjia's voice came from the intercom.

"Your Highness, I have successfully taken over the South Gate of Bailong City."

As soon as Ji Yongjia finished speaking, Qi Zhiyong's excited voice came over.

"Your Highness, I am currently leading my men to Qianhuang City to obtain salt. We have already left Bailong City and will arrive this afternoon."

Chen Yong listened to the clattering sound of horse hooves coming from Qi Zhiyong's side, and frowned slightly.

"How many people did you bring with you?"

"Five hundred people."

Shen Yong thought for a moment and put away the walkie-talkie.

500 people came on horseback, and one horse could carry 200 kilograms of salt.

It is estimated that Zhao Tongpan's people had not left yet when Qi Zhiyong arrived.

Shen Yong knocked lightly on the table.

Now that Qi Zhiyong is here, it’s time to meet the Xie family.

With so much salt shipped out, we have to let the Xie family have some fun.

.......

"I am Xie Yutang, and I pay my respects to King Qianhuang. I wish His Majesty the best of luck and happiness."

Xie Yutang, the head of the Xie family, knelt down naturally without a trace of reluctance on his face.

"No need to be polite, please take a seat." Chen Yong raised his hand, his expression unchanged, and glanced at Xie Yutang indifferently.

He didn't expect that the patriarch of the Xie family was so young, only about 30 years old.

He has a tall and straight figure and a complexion like jade. At first glance, he looks like a man who lives a life of luxury and holds a high position.

Yes, although Xie Yutang did not hold an official position, the Xie family had a queen in their ancestor's family, so his status was naturally different.

A portrait of the queen is also enshrined in the Xie family ancestral hall.

Moreover, the women of the Xie family are all outstanding in talent and appearance, and are the objects of marriage that all the noble families in Qianhuang City want to pursue.

In addition, Emperor Tianwu also ordered the women of the Xie family to enter the palace to participate in the selection.

Coincidentally, the elder of the Xie family passed away that year and the whole family was in mourning, so they missed this draft.

Otherwise, if a daughter of the Xie family became the empress of Emperor Tianwu, the Xie family would never submit to him.

He learned all this from Jinju.

I have to say that the female killers selected by Magistrate Deng for the Shen family are indeed very useful.

"Thank you, Your Majesty..." Xie Yutang stood up and sat down, looking up at Shen Yong.

"The prince was previously assaulted in Zuijinlou. This was all Zuijinlou's fault."

"I'm here to apologize to the prince."

"Huh!" Chen Yong raised his eyebrows and looked at Xie Yutang, "Drunk Golden House belongs to the Xie family?"

Of course he knew that Zuijinlou belonged to the Xie family, but he only found out about it afterwards.

"...Shame on you!" Xie Yutang pulled the corners of his lips awkwardly.

"Zuijinlou is owned by a branch of the Xie family. They are all members of the Xie family. It is because of the negligence of the villain that the current situation has occurred."

"I have ordered the closure of Zuijinlou for rectification. This cannot happen again."

It is no exaggeration to say that Zuijinlou makes a fortune every day. It is just registered under the name of the Xie family's side branch, and the real money goes to the Xie family's direct descendants.

It’s just that the direct descendants want to maintain their reputation, so these kinds of shops are naturally known as side branches to the outside world.

Chen Yong curled his lips and smiled.

"It does need to be rectified. This prince does not want to see women from this city being forced into brothels in Zuijinlou."

"Since they are prostitutes, they naturally use women from other countries."

Xie Yutang's pupils trembled, "......."

No, that’s what King Qianhuang is thinking.

I originally just wanted to close for a few days as a token of my respect.

If we follow King Qianhuang's request, he will have to be locked up for a few months.

After all, it is not so easy to get women from other countries, and they have to be good-looking and have a good figure, which is even more difficult to find.

Fortunately, Qianhuang City is a border town. By spending more money, we can get some women from the Fire Phoenix Country.

But what about the prostitutes in Zuijinlou?

Those were all cultivated by the Xie family with great effort, and they were just thrown away like that?

Chen Yong looked at Xie Yutang's stunned expression and continued to speak nonchalantly.

"As for the former prostitutes in Zuijinlou, those who want to leave will be allowed to leave immediately and given a resettlement fee of 200 yuan. Those who don't want to leave can only serve as maids serving tea and water in Zuijinlou."

"From now on, I will not allow any brothel in Qianhuang City to hire women from my country as prostitutes."

Xie Yutang was stunned by Chen Yong's series of explosive remarks.

He thought that King Qianhuang would take the opportunity to make a huge profit from the Xie family, and he also thought that Chen Yong would ask the Xie family to show their loyalty.

He even had a plan for when Shen Yong wanted to marry a girl from the Xie family.

As a result, no one expected that King Qianhuang would actually speak for those prostitutes.

This is really...
