At this moment, everyone's attention finally turned to Jing Zhe, because Zhang Xiaoyu was hiding behind him, making it impossible not to notice her.
hansome!
They couldn't think of anything else besides those two words.
Even the crown prince of Yu the Great felt a little envious.
"Manager Hu, is that right? I'd better not mention my wife's name, lest it offend your ears."
Jing Zhe's reaction surprised Chen Jiannan. He spoke with a smile, and there was no trace of anger in his eyes.
A bitch?
The three people opposite were taken aback; they never expected that such a young girl had already become a married woman.
Then Jing Zhe said to the bald waiter, "Young man, my brother was ignorant of the rules just now. We will continue to stay here. What is a hundred taels? I lack everything, but I don't lack money. I will pay as usual, so don't worry!"
"..."
Manager Hu glanced at the bald waiter and asked, "How much money has this young master deposited? How long will he be staying?"
The bald waiter said, "One hundred taels of silver, he said he wanted to stay for ten days or half a month, but I said one hundred taels of silver could only cover two or three days, and now this young master has agreed!"
"I see..."
One hundred taels of silver notes for two days, ten days or half a month, that would be more than five hundred taels. It's even more ruthless than robbery. This person is really stupid and rich. If all outsiders were like him, how wonderful would that be?
It must be said, the bald waiter really dared to ask for that much!
"This price is quite reasonable!"
As he spoke, Manager Hu secretly gave the bald waiter an approving look, and the bald waiter was overjoyed.
At this moment, the Crown Prince of Yu was still looking at Zhang Xiaoyu, who was hiding behind Jing Zhe, and the desire in his eyes was even stronger than before.
How could Manager Hu not understand his thoughts?
Wife?
This seems to suit this gentleman's taste better!
Then he laughed and said, "I forgot to introduce you, this is the heir apparent of King Yu!"
Jing Zhe immediately said, "Greetings, Crown Prince Yu!"
Zhang Xiaoyu also bowed slightly in greeting.
The Crown Prince of Yu nodded, his face beaming with pride: "Since you've come to our Ruzhou, stay a few more days and have some fun!"
After the Crown Prince of Yu finished speaking, he left. Manager Hu and Master Qu exchanged a glance and then followed him.
As they went downstairs, Manager Hu approached and asked, "Young Master, does that girl suit your taste?"
The Crown Prince of Yu glanced at him: "Haven't you heard? She's already a married woman. What does it matter if she pleases you or not?"
Shopkeeper Hu immediately grinned and said, "As long as the young master is satisfied, I can send her to his bed!"
The crown prince of King Yu was startled. "What should we do?"
"That young man from earlier, despite his handsome appearance, isn't very shrewd. I think he's just a nouveau riche from out of town! He's rich, isn't he? Tomorrow, we can get him to attend the poetry gathering and then swindle him out of all his money. Then, that young lady will be at the young master's mercy, won't she?"
"You, you have so many bad intentions!"
The Crown Prince of Yu pointed at him and laughed, "But I like it! Then I'll leave this matter to you!"
"Haha, serving the young master is my bounden duty! Don't worry, young master, if everything goes smoothly tomorrow, then Miss and Zhou Ziqiong will both be yours!"
"Haha, then this young master will be waiting!"
"..."
At this moment, the man in official robes said, "That young man is quite handsome and comes from a wealthy family. If Manager Hu's arrangements go smoothly, we could arrange for him to marry into my Piaopiao's family!"
Perhaps thinking of something, Manager Hu shivered and silently mourned for Jing Zhe for a few seconds.
"Don't worry, Prefect Liu, leave it to me!"
Accompanied by lewd laughter, the four men went to the brothel to the right of Juxianlou, where another night of debauchery ensued…
...
Chen Jiannan closed the door, quite puzzled, and said, "President, why did you agree? They're clearly trying to extort money from us!"
"I know."
You know—
Chen Jiannan opened his mouth, even more confused: "President, why did you agree if you knew?"
Jing Zhe chuckled and patted him on the shoulder: "We've known each other for so long, have you ever seen me suffer a loss?"
Chen Jiannan thought for a moment, then shook his head frantically.
Since he met Jing Zhe, anyone who dared to provoke him had suffered greatly, from the Prince of Jin or Grand Tutor Bai to Wu Pin or... a talented man like him. Anyone targeted by Jing Zhe would either die or be severely injured.
"That settles it then. Those few aren't enough to make me suffer. Just wait and see!"
"oh…"
Although Chen Jiannan was still confused, he chose to believe Jing Zhe and then left the house.
After finishing their meal, Jing Zhe and Zhang Xiaoyu returned to their room together. Once the door was closed and they were alone, Zhang Xiaoyu said with some confusion, "Husband, you can reveal your identity. Even if you were the heir of the Yu King, you wouldn't dare to disrespect your current husband!"
Zhang Xiaoyu was telling the truth. Jing Zhe was at the height of his power right now. Let alone a mere heir of the Yu King, even if his father, the Yu King, came, he wouldn't dare to do anything to Jing Zhe.
Jing Zhe put his arm around Zhang Xiaoyu's shoulder and laughed, "Do you know what the greatest pleasure in life is?"
"What?"
"Of course it's to show off and slap people in the face, otherwise why would I get such a high-ranking official position?"
"..."
"Xiaoyu, what do you think of this Juxianlou restaurant?"
"Good, and bad."
"Tell me about it."
"The location of Juxianlou is excellent, situated on the most bustling street in Ruzhou City. In particular, its layout is superb, with three buildings integrated into one. If we could have it, the newspaper office, Wenxiangju, and winery could all be opened together."
As for the downsides, it's that such a good place doesn't belong to us, and this Juxianlou restaurant occupies such a prime location yet engages in swindling and cheating. That's really unacceptable!
After listening to Zhang Xiaoyu's analysis, Jing Zhe laughed and said, "We're on the same page! I also think this place is the best!"
Seeing that Jing Zhe's smile turned cold after he finished speaking, she suddenly realized, "My husband wouldn't be thinking of..."
"Yes, that's what I think too."
Jing Zhe didn't mince words when it came to Zhang Xiaoyu: "Aren't they after our money? Let them try. I'm just afraid they won't get the money and will end up losing their entire fortune!"
As he said this, Jing Zhe was already sneering inwardly.
He wasn't blind; he saw that Manager Hu and Prince Yu had their eyes on Zhang Xiaoyu. This Prince Yu had not only crossed his line, but had crossed it three times in a row, making his eyes on all three of his women!
This time, he wanted more than just Juxianlou; all these people had to pay the price! So he decided to hide his identity and find out their weaknesses!
After speaking, Zhang Xiaoyu asked, "Husband, now that we're in Ruzhou, don't you plan to go find Pavilion Master Mu and the others?"
"..."
Zhang Xiaoyu naturally knew that Mu Qingren and Wang Yingqiu were both in Ruzhou. She even thought that the reason Jing Zhe chose to come here as the first stop was for Mu Qingren and Wang Yingqiu, which is why she asked that question.
