"Although Princess Anne does have an older sister, it's not me... I'm curious, how do you know Anne looks like me? Haha~"
Zhang Feng was a little embarrassed.
He didn't expect that he just wanted to flatter someone, but ended up hitting the horse's leg.
However, what the queen said also surprised Zhang Feng a little.
Princess Anne is not the Queen's biological daughter, and she has an older sister? Is Princess Anne the King's biological daughter? What is the relationship between the King, the Queen, and Princess Anne?
Zhang Feng’s gossipy heart was burning wildly.
But now is obviously not the time to think about these things. Zhang Feng suddenly had an idea and said:
"I'm very interested in your clothes. I wonder if Earl Zhang Feng can sell me some?"

Zhang Feng was a little confused about what the queen meant. Did he say it was too small?
The queen breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Zhang Feng could produce it, it would be fine.
The queen asked tentatively.
This question is indeed a bit difficult for Zhang Feng. He has hardly been to Buck City, so how can he make an evaluation? However, as the capital of the Buck Kingdom, it is indeed very good compared to other cities.
If someone else asked her this, she would definitely not answer, and might even be very angry. But after all, Zhang Feng was about to become her business partner, so the queen didn't care much.
The queen was a little unhappy. She thought Zhang Feng was a little too arrogant. However, Zhang Feng had already said it, and the queen could not refute it, otherwise she would lose face.
However, it is no wonder that the queen is so cautious.
She really wanted to keep Zhang Feng by her side. Apart from anything else, Zhang Feng was able to save the dying Hongye City and even take it to several levels. This was something that not everyone could do.
Zhang Feng wanted to say that it was no problem to give it to the queen, but after careful consideration, the queen's words seemed to be wholesale. If she bought too much, Zhang Feng could not afford it, but there was no need.
"Oh? Go ahead and ask. There are only two of us here. No matter what you say, I don't blame you!"
The queen couldn't let go of the dress she was wearing. Not only was the material comfortable to the touch, but the pink color was something that not many people could achieve.
"Hehe~ You are such an interesting person!"
“It’s good as long as there is no difficulty!”
Perhaps because she had made a deal, the queen was very happy and spoke to Zhang Feng with a smile on her face.
In particular, when Zhang Feng met her, she exaggeratedly said that she was Princess Anne's sister. Although the queen knew that Zhang Feng was lying and that the other party was just saying sweet words, she couldn't help but feel happy.
The queen's breathing was a little rapid. Just thinking about this scene made people excited! However, is this really the scale of the queen's trip? Even the king does not have this treatment! Unless it is wartime, the king rushes to the front line or even goes to the battlefield in person, otherwise the king is at most protected by a team of royal knights.
Seeing that Zhang Feng did not respond to her words, the queen knew that her trick would not work on him.
"Then Your Majesty, after you get the thousand pieces of clothing, will the money you earn be enough to spend?"
Zhang Feng really wanted to say that one thousand pieces were too few, and that the business had to be bigger. After all, a city lord in More City could spend one hundred thousand gold coins to buy a car, and the queen's business of less than ten thousand gold coins was really a bit cheap.
"No problem, even if it's a gift... ahem, may I ask how much the Queen would like to buy?"
Anne said she bought her pink dress for a gold coin.
After all, as a queen, she has many privileges and doesn't have to spend money on many things.
The two people's way of thinking was different from the beginning, so there is such a big gap.
The queen naturally didn't believe Zhang Feng's modesty. After so many years, why couldn't others design it, but Zhang Feng did? In the final analysis, it was still a matter of talent and strength.
Listening to Zhang Feng's endless words, the queen was confused.
"I don't deserve it. I figured it out myself based on the experience of my predecessors..."
The queen looked at Zhang Feng with sparkling eyes, as if she was moved by Zhang Feng's personal charm.
The queen was annoyed when she saw Zhang Feng pretending to be stupid, but in order to earn some pocket money, she still said in a friendly manner: "One thousand pieces! I need you to provide me with one thousand pieces of clothes of my quality every year. As for the price! Just lower than the market price in Buck City. What do you think, Earl Zhang Feng?"
In fact, Hongye City had already been well arranged by Zhang Feng, and everyone had their own duties. Even if Zhang Feng was gone, it would not return to the Hongye City of the past. At most, it would just stand still.
The queen stared into Zhang Feng's eyes, which made Zhang Feng a little nervous.
"Yes."
Zhang Feng is so arrogant!
What does she mean? She's not going to force me to stay...
After all, she is the queen of the kingdom, not a spendthrift. So many gold coins are enough for her to spend for a very long time!
Zhang Feng heard a lot of information from the queen's words, but the most important thing was that the queen was very short of money!
If it were in Buck City, the queen felt that the minimum price would be ten gold coins! If Zhang Feng sold it to her for five gold coins, then one thousand pieces of clothing would be a business worth five thousand gold coins. This business was naturally nothing to the queen, but it was based on the premise of selling ten gold coins. The queen was confident that she could buy fifteen or even twenty!
Although he didn't know what the queen's purpose was, Zhang Feng admitted it openly. As long as he wanted to do business in the royal capital, he couldn't hide it, not to mention that he didn't want to hide it.
"Although Buck City is good, I still have my subjects. I can't abandon them. If I don't go back to Hongye City, they will probably starve to death..."
Zhang Feng agreed without thinking.
In fact, Zhang Feng did not see how the royal family traveled. He made up his mind based on his understanding of the ancient emperors and the pomp and circumstance of welcoming Princess Anne.
The queen had laughed enough. She sat lazily on the chair, propped up her chin with her elbow, and said to Zhang Feng: "I heard that you sold this dress of mine? Or did you design it yourself?"
"Earl Zhang Feng is really amazing. He understands women's minds so well..."
Just like when Zhang Feng kept the cat-eared girl, he didn't even consider whether the other party was willing or not.
"But, I have some questions, I don't know if I should ask them."
"Count Zhang Feng, you are wrong. Not only me, but even the king will be short of money! The gold coins in the treasury belong to the treasury after all. We cannot use them at will. Moreover, the harvest this year is very poor, and the tax revenue has dropped a lot. Even the treasury is a little tight. In addition, the south... Forget it, there are some things you are not qualified to know now."
If the queen can really buy a large amount of his clothes, Zhang Feng doesn't mind doing business with the queen, and even let the queen become the exclusive agent of Buck City!
Zhang Feng was stunned. To be honest, he was a little disappointed when he heard the queen's words.
Looking at it blankly, the queen wondered if she should reduce the amount? But if it was too little, she would earn much less.
Seeing the queen in a daze, Zhang Feng thought his words had worked, and immediately said, "So, Your Majesty, the gold coins you earn are not enough!"
But Zhang Feng didn't believe it. He didn't think the queen would be so simple. After all, she was the queen. What had she not seen?
Unfortunately, it seems that Zhang Feng is not very willing.
If that's the case, it would be a considerable income.
"Would a thousand pieces be difficult?"
After all, knights and soldiers are very precious, and their war horses and weapons are all consumables. Every extra trip they make will cost you gold coins!
This was within the Queen's expectations. She smiled and stopped asking the question. Instead, she said:
"Are you sure this is the size of the Queen's trip?"
What is this? Shouldn't she just choose two royal knights to protect her when she goes out? However, when she thinks of the scene Zhang Feng described - a team of a hundred people, eight horses pulling a carriage, and several luxurious carriages...
After all, the queen considered these things to be luxury goods, and one thousand pieces were already a lot. Zhang Feng's goal was to make all the people in the Buck Kingdom wear clothes produced in Hongye City. These were mass-produced, and there were tens of thousands of them each time. In Zhang Feng's opinion, they were not worth his hard work.
"Well, what do you think I should do?"
But unexpectedly, the queen only wanted one thousand pieces, which was enough for one year.
"What does Earl Zhang Feng think of Buck City?"
She has been the queen for many years and has everything she wants, but youth is something that no amount of money can buy. But today, after putting on this pink slim dress, she actually feels younger, which makes the queen very happy.
"Annie is as pretty as you are!"
The Queen wants to buy clothes?
But Zhang Feng didn't dare to say it directly and could only hint at it.
After all, this is more convenient, and the other party is the queen. As long as the contract is signed, there shouldn't be any problems.
If managed properly, the queen could earn at least tens of thousands of gold coins by selling these clothes to those noble ladies. How could tens of thousands of gold coins not be enough pocket money?
The queen looked calm, but Zhang Feng didn't notice. He continued:
Earning 30,000 or 50,000 gold coins is not in line with the status of a queen? She actually wants to earn 30,000 or 50,000!
Zhang Feng spoke in a low voice.
When the queen heard Zhang Feng ask this, she looked at him strangely, not knowing what he meant.
The queen naturally wanted to get these clothes at the lowest price, but for fear of scaring Zhang Feng, the queen did not say that it was the price Anne got, but said it was lower than the price in Buck City.
"Do you have any thoughts of staying?"
Moreover, the production of such a "luxury" would naturally be very slow. Forget about anything else. Just the pink color alone, the queen felt that it might take Zhang Feng and several months to make it. Not to mention that the workmanship of this long skirt was extremely good. How many masters would have to work day and night to make it! That's why the queen only asked for a thousand pieces. She was afraid that if she asked for too much, Zhang Feng would be scared away.
The queen looked at Zhang Feng with some strange eyes.
Zhang Feng felt that it was not worth it for Hongye Steam No. 1 to make a trip.
"This...is not difficult..."
Zhang Feng didn't know how to start. Could it be that he was saying, "Your Highness, I really don't like your handiwork?" He was sure that if he said that, he would have to trouble Fox Ear Girl to break the prison tomorrow.
The queen's eyes were full of smiles. She reached out and pinched Zhang Feng's face, and when Zhang Feng tried to dodge, she took a few steps back.
"I mean, even if I sell you these 1,000 pieces of clothing at a low price, even if I triple or quintuple the price, you can only make 20,000 to 30,000 gold coins at most. This amount of gold coins is totally not in line with your status!"
"Um?"
When the queen said this, she couldn't help feeling sad. She was the queen of a kingdom, but she had to talk so much to a small earl just to earn some pocket money. This was unimaginable in the past.
"Of course not!"
"Count Zhang Feng, are you sure? I may have bought too much, and I need a price lower than the market price..."
No wonder Zhang Feng had so many wild thoughts. After all, their identities were not equal. He didn’t think the queen would think of him in the same position as Zhang Feng.
The queen raised her slender index finger and looked at Zhang Feng with a smile on her lips.
"If you ask me, this amount of gold coins is not enough for you! For example, if you go out of the palace, you will need at least 200 knights, guards and servants to accompany you, eight horses to lead the way, and three luxurious carriages to accompany you. Although these people don't cost you money, if you need them to do something, you have to give them some rewards. So just going out will cost you a lot of gold coins. If you like to buy some things on a regular basis, it will be a considerable expense..."
Ten thousand pieces? One hundred thousand pieces? Could it be a million pieces? Zhang Feng was a little unsure, but in order to avoid making mistakes, Zhang Feng did not speak directly, but asked: "Your Majesty, forgive my ignorance, what are you doing?"
"As the queen of Buck Kingdom, you should not be short of gold coins. For these gold coins, you personally ..."
She knew that Zhang Feng would definitely sell this kind of clothes in Buck City. After all, with such high profits, it would be a waste not to make money from this business.
Seeing Zhang Feng stunned, the queen frowned slightly.
Eight horses leading the way? Three luxurious carriages?
Zhang Feng was worrying about how to sell the things. Since the queen wanted to buy them, Zhang Feng naturally would not refuse.
Not to mention that the queen really liked the design of this dress. After wearing it, she looked at least ten years younger! Age is an issue that every woman cares about, and she is no exception.
Zhang Feng has always been very humble, and what he said is not wrong, it’s just that this “predecessor” is in another world.
After hearing the queen's words, Zhang Feng did not hesitate and spoke directly:
"fine……"
Zhang Feng thought for a long time and finally uttered three words.
"I didn't expect Earl Zhang Feng to be such a person. It's really shocking! Compared to this, he must be very happy to be your subject!"
Zhang Feng found an excuse that wasn't too far-fetched.
The queen was a little stunned when she heard what Zhang Feng said.
The queen suddenly spoke.
Although this would make the queen earn a lot less money, as long as Zhang Feng agreed to her, they could talk about it slowly in the future! Besides, she was the queen after all, and as long as Zhang Feng agreed, she had plenty of ways to make him give in! "One thousand pieces? Every year?"
Zhang Feng was a little uncomfortable with it. He always felt that this queen was a little different from the queen he had imagined.
Traveling with a hundred guards and servants?
Before Zhang Feng finished speaking, the queen knew what he meant.
He did underestimate it. When he thought about the emperors in ancient times, how could they dare to go out if they didn't spend tens of thousands of dollars?
So Zhang Feng said, "Well, I'm thinking about how Her Majesty the Queen is frugal and thrifty. Normally, this scale must be expanded five times!"
"...Where did you hear this?"
"My hometown, the queen of my hometown always travels like this! The king will give ten times more!"
Zhang Feng looked as if it was a matter of course. He had no idea that he seemed to have distorted the style of painting in the other world.
