Night falls.
The moonlight shines on the streets of Chang'an City, making it seem particularly peaceful.
After the banquet, Zhuang Zhou and Ma San returned to the house.
Hongyu had been waiting at home for a long time.
Seeing Zhuang Zhou coming back, he hurried forward to ask about the banquet.
Zhuang Zhou smiled and comforted her:
"Don't worry, everything is according to my plan."
Hongyu looked at Zhuang Zhou with admiration and said:
"Master Zhuang, you are amazing. You were able to convince Mr. Zhao."
Zhuang Zhou smiled:
"Nothing in this world is absolute. Only through cooperation can we achieve a win-win situation. As for Zhao Qing, there's no deep hatred between him and me. The key is whether he's worth saving."
Hongyu nodded, deeply impressed by Zhuang Zhou's wisdom and courage.
Then.
Zhuang Zhou called Ma San aside and whispered a few words to him.
After hearing this, Ma San's eyes flashed with surprise, but he quickly agreed.
Then Ma San said goodbye and left.
After all, the grocery store still needs him.
And at this time.
However, the merchants in Kyoto were engaged in a heated debate over Zhuang Zhou's conditions.
But they all knew that Zhuang Zhou had now established a firm foothold in Chang'an City.
Especially since they have heard a lot of rumors.
It tells the story of the brotherhood between Zhuang Zhou and Cheng Zhimo, the eldest son of Duke Lu.
I have a close relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
There is also the matter of redeeming the freedom of Miss Hongyu, the top courtesan in Fengyiyuan.
And the fact that Master Cui Yu treated him with great courtesy.
even.
There were even rumors that some people had seen His Majesty and Duke Lu entering and leaving Zhuangji Grocery Store.
In short, looking at all the information.
If they don't cooperate with Zhuang Zhou, I'm afraid that one day, it will be all of them who will be driven out of Chang'an City.
then.
Some of them have already switched sides.
They had to give up suppressing Zhuangji Grocery Store.
Start thinking and seek cooperation with Zhuang Zhou.
And Zhao Dewang.
He also felt a lot of pressure because of Zhuang Zhou's sudden request.
Zhuang Zhou didn't stay long at tonight's banquet.
But it caused a series of effects among the merchants in Kyoto.
For Zhuang Zhou.
All this was just part of his plan.
He knew that in order to gain a foothold in this prosperous Kyoto.
You must have strong strength.
And he also believes that as long as he keeps working hard.
He will definitely have a place in the future Chang'an City.
Joining Kyoto Trading Company will undoubtedly take your future career to a higher level.
At this time, Zhuang Zhou was preparing to wash up and go to bed.
But there was a knock on the door.
"Sir, are you asleep?"
It's ruby.
Oh, right, Zhuang Zhou just remembered.
Before leaving tonight, I told her that I would come back for a drink in the evening.
But now Zhuang Zhou has already drunk a lot of wine at Zhao Dewang's place.
If I drink any more, I'm afraid I'll get drunk.
"Master Zhuang, have you gone to bed yet?"
“No!”
Zhuang Zhou responded and went to open the door.
Then I saw Hongyu standing at the door with a basin of hot water.
"What are you doing?"
Zhuang Zhou asked in confusion.
"Sir, I will wash your feet for you."
Zhuang Zhou waved his hand and said:
"No, I'll just scoop some water from the yard and rinse it later."
Hongyu said with a distressed look:
"How can that be! You've been running all day, you need to soak your feet in hot water to relieve fatigue and stimulate blood circulation."
Zhuang Zhou then remembered that this girl was also a doctor!
And now the hot water is ready.
It's a waste if you don't wash it.
Then wash it!
"Okay, put the water down!"
Zhuang Zhou said this and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Hongyu then placed the hot water in front of him.
Then he squatted down.
One hand held Zhuang Zhou's feet and was about to take off his shoes.
"Hongyu, what are you doing?"
"I'll wash your feet!"
"No need, I can wash it myself."
"Sir, do you not like me?"
"No!"
"Does the young master dislike me?"
“No!”
"In that case, why don't you let me serve you?"
"Because... I'm not used to it!"
"But last time when I used my hands to serve you, you seemed quite used to it!"
ah?
Why did you suddenly bring this up?
Zhuang Zhou smiled awkwardly and said:
"That's different. I can wash my feet myself."
Hongyu looked at Zhuang Zhou embarrassedly and smiled slightly:
"Sir, I am yours now. You are everything to me. I am willing to do anything for you."
Zhuang Zhou felt warm in his heart as he watched Hongyu carefully take off her shoes.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
It is such a blessing in life to have such a beautiful woman!
While soaking their feet, Zhuang Zhou and Hongyu chatted casually.
Talking about the interesting things that happened at today's banquet.
Zhuang Zhou told Hongyu that he would go out to do something tomorrow.
Let her take care of herself and run the store with Ling'er.
Hongyu nodded and said:
"Don't worry, sir. I've already heard about it from Sister Ling'er."
After washing his feet, Hongyu carefully dried them for Zhuang Zhou.
Then he left with the empty basin.
Zhuang Zhou looked at Hongyu's back and felt very close to her.
Such a caring person is truly precious.
At this moment, Zhuang Zhou was even more determined to gain a foothold in Kyoto and build a career.
He knew that this was the only way.
Only then can Hongyu have a better life.
