Yangzhou City is extremely lively today, and it can even be said that the whole world is celebrating. When everyone heard that the National Master was going to treat everyone in the city to a buffet, they were all excited.
"Eating is fine, but we have to agree that we can only eat on site and not take anything with us."
"Don't serve things like shark fin and sea cucumber. Ordinary people don't like them. They're tasteless and not filling. Serve the meat dishes instead. Plenty of them. Serve the two-finger-thick pork head. My mouth is full of grease."
Lu Chen grabbed the owner of the restaurant and gave him instructions. The core idea was to ensure that the people had enough to eat and eat well without spending too much money.
Zi Yan's mouth kept twitching, and she really wanted Lu Chen to return her feelings.
"Come on, Miss Zi Yan, this is indeed the best restaurant in Yangzhou. The dishes are really good. Try this fish, it's incredibly delicious!" As he spoke, Lu Chen picked up a piece of fish with his chopsticks and said to Zi Yan, "After we finish eating, let's go around and take a look at the styles of clothes in Yangzhou and the rouge and powder here."
Women, don’t they like these things when they go shopping?
Lu Chen also had his own plans. Zi Yan had been by his side for such a long time, and now he didn't have to worry about the Oiran Contest anymore. Wasn't it time to take some time to win her over?
Take the girl out shopping, give her some gifts, and then create some romantic scenes. The atmosphere will be super hot, and it's almost time to make the move.
If it takes any longer, I won’t say who it will be, but someone will definitely be anxious.
Zi Yan nodded with a smile as beautiful as a flower, chatting and laughing with Lu Chen, but she was thinking in her heart how to deal with the next thing.
Seeing that there are at least hundreds of people surrounding them, I definitely cannot kidnap them in this situation. This mission is really too difficult.
After all, kidnapping is a delicate job, and before it succeeds, the hostage's life must be guaranteed.
This is quite different from assassination. If the intention is to assassinate Lu Chen, then the more lively the scene and the more people there are, the better.
After much thought, Zi Yan couldn't come up with any good ideas, so she could only quietly say to Du Juan beside her: "Tell our people that the plan has changed. Don't act for the time being."
"Don't worry, Saint Lady. I've already given the order. It's really not a good idea to take action in this situation."
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Lu Chen took Zi Yan out of the restaurant. Before leaving, the people at the table greeted Lu Chen enthusiastically.
Lu Chen estimated that after this operation, many people in the entire Yangzhou city would be able to recognize him.
After finally getting rid of the enthusiastic onlookers, Lu Chen naturally put his arm around Zi Yan's waist and said, "Miss Zi Yan, where do you want to go next? Should we go shopping for clothes first, or buy rouge and powder first, or how about I take you to look at some gold and silver jewelry?"
"Master Imperial Master, I heard that there's a master of the yangqin who lives in the west city of Yangzhou. I'd like to visit her and see if I can learn some yangqin techniques from her. I hope my skills can be taken to the next level."
Perhaps worried that Lu Chen would not agree, Zi Yan added, "Then I can often play a song for the Imperial Master to cheer him up."
"Why are you doing all this nonsense? When I'm really with you, who would care about listening to some little songs to relieve boredom? I really want to do something to you, don't you know what's going on?"
Although he thought so in his heart, Lu Chen said: "Of course it's good. You know me, I also like music. Then let's go visit that master together."
As a man, you always have to pretend before you succeed.
So a few people went to buy some rouge and powder and two pieces of jewelry and headed towards West City. When they were buying rouge and powder, they made a joke. The shopkeeper actually patted his chest and said that their fake rouge and powder were formulated by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and were almost the same as the perfume formula.
The corners of Lu Chen's mouth twitched. Are there already fake and shoddy products?
"No, when I get back, I must get the Ministry of Justice to quickly enact laws to combat counterfeiting. We can't tolerate this kind of behavior. It will severely impact my income, and in turn, slow down our country's technological advancement."
Seeing Lu Chen so emotional, Zi Yan comforted him, "Master, don't be angry. It's just a way for some unscrupulous businessmen to make money. A small punishment will be enough."
"What do you know? If things like Fa'angren continue to develop, sooner or later, bad money will drive out good money. By then, who will be willing to put in the time to research new perfumes and better skin care products?"
"What! It affects the development of perfumes and skincare products? This is insane and will destroy our entire clan!"
After the little episode, under the leadership of Zi Yan, Lu Chen and his group came to a small building with its own courtyard in West City.
Looking at the scene before him, Lu Chen couldn't help but sigh, "Miss Zi Yan, it's amazing that you can find such a place. Do you also have an internal communication group?"
Lu Chen really couldn't understand why a top performer who rarely went out in the capital knew about a yangqin master in Yangzhou?
Zi Yan said a little embarrassedly, "Reporting to the Grand Master, every year my mother always invites some masters of music to come to the building to teach us. These people often communicate with their peers outside. I heard about them and came here."
Lu Chen nodded, and said to Guo Bei beside him without any doubt: "Go up and knock on the door."
Guo Bei nodded and was about to step forward, but Zi Yan suddenly stepped forward to stop Guo Bei. She turned to look at Lu Chen and said, "Master, this master has a strange temper and doesn't like too many people disturbing him. Why don't you let me go in by myself?"
Huh? This...
Lu Chen was quite reluctant. What a joke! I've already walked all the way here, and you told me you'd go in alone? Then why would I follow you all the way in?
Seeing Lu Chen's unhappy expression, Zi Yan spoke again, "This lady is a woman. She was once the top prostitute in Yangzhou. Later, she redeemed herself, so it is not convenient for her to meet with men outside. I heard that this lady has a voluptuous figure and a beautiful appearance, just like the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens who has descended to the earth. That's why we set this rule. I hope that the Imperial Master will forgive her."
What a joke, Lu Chen thought to himself, it would be fine if you didn’t mention this, but once you said she was pretty, then I wouldn’t be sleepy anymore.
"Ahem, now that I'm here, it would be somewhat disrespectful if I don't go in and pay my respects. Miss Zi Yan, you know me well. I'm not here for her beauty!"
"Well... well, the Imperial Master has made great contributions to the world. I think if this master knew your identity, he would be happy to meet you."
After saying this, Zi Yan roared in her heart: "You bastard, I knew you liked big ones, right? You went there just for my plump figure, right?"
