Chapter 320: New Store Opens
The King of Thailand refused to take back the jade lotus basin.
Wen Yan could only shamelessly bring the things back.
Wen Yan presented another gift.
She made the fur hats, gloves and scarves using the best fur in the store.
The hat is inlaid with gems, which is exquisite and elegant, and it looks very expensive.
However, compared with the jade lotus pot, the three-piece set is not even a drop in the bucket.
But it’s right that King Sun of Thailand likes it very much.
The King of Thailand looked at Ying Zhilin who was carrying the gift box and said: "Looking at his clothes and appearance, he doesn't look like a servant of your family."
Wen Yan waved her hand: "He is not a servant, he is my husband Ying Zhilin."
"This year's provincial examination champion, Ying Zhilin?" Ying Zhilin stepped forward and saluted. "Greetings, King Tai. It's none other than me."
The King of Thailand looked at him and nodded: "He is a good boy."
After leaving the King of Thailand's Palace, Wen Yan went to the General's Mansion again.
Meng Xiyan was not at home. She chatted with Aunt Tao for a while and then went to see Aunt Meng's second aunt.
Second Aunt saw Wen Yan and waved at her: "Come here quickly, I have something to talk to you about."
"Second Aunt, what's the matter? I will definitely help you if I can."
"It's the end of the year, and a good sister of mine is coming back to Beijing from out of town, and we want to hold a party.
She had just returned, and the house had been vacant for several years, with everything in it being run down and dilapidated.
We were short of staff and couldn't hold a party, so I recommended you to her."
"Second aunt, please put your mind at ease.
You brought this order specifically for me, so I will definitely do my best to get it done!"
Great! The new store is finally open.
"Okay. I'll leave this matter to you." Second Aunt took out five hundred taels of silver notes and handed them to Wen Yan, "These deposits will be arranged by you later."
"Don't worry, I promise to satisfy you."
After agreeing on the price for the entire restaurant, Wen Yan gave a 30% discount as a discount for the first customer.

Imperial Palace.
Aunt Lan Xin led two palace maids and carried a large bundle into the Queen's palace.
"What is this?" The queen held the hand warmer and leaned against the beauty, drowsy.
"This is the return gift Wen Yan gave me yesterday. Do you want to open it and take a look?"
The Empress wasn't interested, but Her Royal Highness the Princess was very excited: "Open it quickly. Wen Yan has something very interesting. I want to see what she has prepared."
Aunt Lan Xin opened the package.
"Wow, it's a hat. The fur is so comfortable! Is it rabbit fur? And it has two little droopy ears."
"This six-sided shoulder bag is so beautiful. The green color is so calming, and the five-colored gemstones inlaid add a touch of liveliness and a bit of fun. It perfectly suits my mother's temperament."
"And this scarf, the embroidery and pompoms on it are so cute..."
The Queen took the six-sided handbag and looked at it. "It is indeed very beautiful. Chi Fei once said that she was clever and skillful, but I just thought her embroidery was more outstanding. I didn't expect her mind to be so clever."
Aunt Lan Xin: "Fifth Princess has a very good eye. With you holding this bag, its value will increase several times."
"You are just sweet-talking. Since Youning likes it, just keep it." Youning is the name of the fifth princess.
The queen gave an order.
"Thank you, mother." You Ning threw herself into the queen's arms and rubbed against her coquettishly.
The next morning.
Wen Ruyue paid her respects and returned to her own yard.
As she changed into light clothes, she asked her maid, "Have Zhongfu and the others returned from burning the charcoal storehouse on the farm?"
"Madam, they haven't come back yet." The maid knelt down and replied.
"What! What happened the night before yesterday? He hasn't come back to report for such a long time! Where has he been doing evil again? If he dares to delay my business, I will skin him alive! Trash, all of them trash. None of them is useful." Wen Ruyue was so angry that she blew her beard and glared. After a while, she finally realized that something was wrong.
"Send a few people to the Meng family's farm to find out what's going on with Zhongfu and the others." She changed her clothes again and went back to the Wen Mansion.
"The person who set the fire hasn't returned in two days and nights. Maybe they caught him."
The mother and daughter felt more and more uneasy, and they couldn't wait for the person who went to the village to inquire about the news to come back, so they immediately decided to go to the house where the goods were stored to take a look.
Wen Yan was planning an order for Aunt Meng's friend when Pei'er came hurriedly: "Miss, someone from the General's Mansion came and said they have something urgent to discuss with you."
"I'll go right away." Wen Yan put down the brush and strode out.
The person who came was the Meng family's housekeeper.
"Uncle, what happened?"
"Miss Wen Yan." He stood up immediately when he saw Wen Yan. "It's the charcoal storage area. Jiang Xinkui and her daughter went there to look for them."
"Then let's go quickly. Wen Ruyue can be very aggressive when she gets upset. Pei'er Pei'er, where are our horses? Lead them out quickly."
"Madam, please get in." A carriage stopped outside the door. Ying Zhilin was holding a whip and looking at her with a smile.
"How do you know I need a carriage?" Wen Yan strode over and got into the carriage.
"Didn't you say last night that you wanted to go shopping and look at the goods? I went out for a walk today and compiled a list of goods. You can take a look." Ying Zhilin handed her a booklet. "Here, take a look and mark anything you like. You just focus on your work these few days. I'll go shopping."
After reading it carefully, Wen Yan had to say that Ying Zhilin was really reliable.
The list is very detailed.
The items, stores, addresses, prices, advantages and disadvantages are all very detailed.
After Wen Yan selected the things, they arrived at their destination.
When Wen Yan got off the carriage, he saw the courtyard gate wide open.
In the yard, Meng Xiyan was already confronting Jiang Xinkui and her daughter.
Wen Ruyue pointed at Meng Xiyan angrily: "This is my house. How can the things inside not belong to me?"
Meng Xiyan swung his hand and pressed on the door: "Now that this house is in my hands, it is mine too?"
"You...you are making excuses!" Wen Ruyue was so angry that her face turned purple.
Wen Yan burst out laughing. She didn't expect Meng Xiyan to be so naughty.
"Wen Yan, it's you again! You and Meng Xiyan teamed up to deal with me!" Wen Ruyue's eyes were bloodshot.
She was so angry.
After her rebirth, she never gained any advantage in anything related to Wen Yan.
Wen Yan shook her finger: "Wrong, wrong, wrong! How could we team up to deal with you? It's obvious that you jumped into the pit yourself."
“You say these charcoals are yours, do you have any evidence?
Is there an order deed? Or a receipt for the payment? Or is there a third-party witness?"
Of course Wen Ruyue couldn't take it out.
In order to do things thoroughly, those forged bills should have been burned.
"I can't take it out, do you think you can?" Wen Ruyue sneered back.
“Of course I can afford it.
"Here, do you want to take a look?" Wen Yan took out an account book and waved it in front of Wen Ruyue.
Wen Yan picked up a sack at random: "Sack numbered Fuliuer, let me see it, chestnut charcoal, the whole bag weighs 93 kilograms."
"Chestnut charcoal, that's right." Wen Yan untied the tie, took out a piece of charcoal and shook it in front of Wen Ruyue.
"Oh, by the way, besides that, I also have a delivery ticket!"
Wen Yan took out another piece of paper and put it in front of Wen Ruyue.
After Wen Ruyue saw the contents on the paper clearly, her pupils suddenly dilated.
This, this, this...
This turned out to be a forged delivery ticket she had made.
Shouldn't it have been burned in the warehouse?
How could it appear in Wen Yan's hands?
