Chapter 322
However, Chu Ci's attention was attracted by a small but anxious voice.
She quickly shouted, "Yes, all of them. But everyone must line up in order, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."
The power of money is indeed strong. As soon as Chu Ci finished speaking, everyone present lined up neatly in the blink of an eye as if they had heard a unified command.
The movement was so fast that it was as if it were cast by magic.
Even the knowledgeable Chu Ci was a little dumbfounded.
She stared at the scene with wide eyes in disbelief, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.
Chu Ci raised his voice again: "Which boss just said there was fresh beef and mutton? Come over here."
Her voice was clear and loud, like a yellow oriole singing in a valley, spreading clearly in the noisy crowd and reaching everyone's ears.
As Chu Ci's voice fell, everyone enthusiastically helped to search for the boss who provided beef and mutton.
The boss who claimed to have beef and mutton suddenly changed his expression and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
He subconsciously wanted to turn around and escape, but found that the crowd around him had already gathered around him and was heading towards Chu Ci.
At this point, he could only pretend to be calm, forcing a flattering smile on his face, and said, "Madam, I do have beef and mutton, but the quantity is not large. I wonder how much Madam would like?"
Seeing this, Chu Ci gently tugged at the sleeve of Fan Jingrui beside him.
Fan Jingrui instantly understood Chu Ci's meaning and nodded slightly.
Just as he was about to remind Chu Ci not to alert the enemy, Chu Ci said proudly, "I'll take whatever you have. How about it? When can you send it over?"
"Ah?" The boss was just talking nonsense to follow the crowd. He didn't have any beef or mutton in his hands.
So he pretended to be surprised and widened his eyes and asked, "How much do you want? What does your family do to consume so much beef and mutton?"
As he spoke, he quickly gestured for help to his companions not far away.
Seeing this, Chu Ci did not stop them. Instead, he deliberately raised his voice and said loudly, "I believe everyone has the same question, right?"
"I, the princess, may as well tell you that I did this to express my condolences to the soldiers who fought bravely on the front lines to resist the Tatars."
"So, what's the point of what you have?"
"Princess, are you the princess?" The boss, who had been racking his brains to figure out how to escape, was startled when he heard the words.
His mind instantly became active: If this could allow him to enter the Great Zhou military camp...
Or could he take the opportunity to gain the trust of the princess in front of him, establish a long-term cooperative relationship with her, and then through her network of relationships, would he be able to go deeper into the Great Zhou?
If the plan succeeds, the Tatar army will be able to use the endless stream of intelligence to gain the upper hand on the battlefield.
By then, I will be able to prosper in Tatar and enjoy wealth and glory.
Chu Ci had no idea that in just a short while, the mind of the problematic boss in front of him had already turned like a wild horse out of control, frantically focusing on many crucial intelligence of the Great Zhou, and he had even set his evil intentions on the Great Zhou royal family again.
He had a wishful plan in mind, imagining how to use this opportunity to obtain secrets, thereby achieving great merit and gaining endless wealth and glory.
Chu Ci, who was still doing her best to play the role of a wealthy and somewhat willful princess, immediately frowned, a hint of coldness flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she said sternly: "Boss, you are overstepping your bounds."
"Or do you mean you don't have any beef or mutton at all? Humph, tell me the truth, who are you?"
As soon as Chu Ci finished speaking, Fan Jingrui cooperated very well and drew out the long sword from his waist. With a flash of cold light, the sharp blade instantly touched the man's neck.
Fan Jingrui's brows knitted tightly together, his eyes as cold as ice. He said in a deep voice, "Speak! Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless!"
The cold aura emanating from him made everyone around him shiver.
"No, no, no, even if I have the courage of the sky, I dare not deceive the princess!" The man seemed to be so scared that his voice changed and his legs kept shaking.
However, such a person who was almost scared out of his wits dared to yell at his companions.
"Qiu Er, hurry up and go to our rented yard and bring the cattle and sheep we got from the countryside to the princess. Be quick and don't delay. If we make mistakes, we will all be in trouble!"
The way Chu Ci shouted this sounded as if he was forcing someone to buy something.
Even though Fan Jingrui was well-educated, he couldn't control the sword in his hand and it drew a bloody mark on the boss's neck.
The boss felt a sharp pain in his neck and immediately seized the opportunity.
He cried out "Ouch!" and then his facial features twisted into an expression of extreme fear, and he cried out in a trembling voice, "Sir, please spare me, sir, please spare me!"
"I am truly innocent. I have parents and children to support, and they all rely on me to run a small business to support them. My Lord, please be kind and forgive me this time!"
He was in tears and looked extremely miserable.
However, although he looked pitiful, anyone who dared to open a business in this chaotic time must be a versatile person who could get along with everyone.
Obviously, no one would be willing to do such a stupid thing as offending a real God of Wealth, who is also a God of Wealth with a background, for the sake of a stranger!
So the surrounding merchants just watched silently.
Some even plucked up their courage, took a few steps forward, and shouted at the top of their voices, "Princess, since his cattle and sheep won't be able to come over for a while, why don't you take ours first?"
Chu Ci didn't know who was calling out, but he saw that no one objected.
Seeing Ye Lin hurried over not far away, he responded: "Okay, then I'll take yours first."
After saying that, she even raised her voice and said, "General Ye, you've come just in time. Hurry! These are the benefits that this princess bought for everyone."
Sure enough, the person who had just been pretending to be timid immediately feigned surprise. "General Ye, are you the General Ye who is so famous on the battlefield and so feared by the enemy?"
"I've heard of your great reputation for a long time, and I'm so lucky to meet you today!"
However, Ye Lin only glanced at him lightly, then ignored him and quickly walked towards Chu Ci, bowing solemnly and saying, "Princess, I am here to wait for your orders."
Emma, it turns out that General Ye is also a great actor!
It seems that a certain cattle and sheep owner can't escape at all.
Thinking of this, Chu Ci tried hard to suppress the upward curve of his lips and said calmly, "Why is General Ye always so polite? Look, if there is anything you need, feel free to ask."
"The supplies this princess has purchased this time are quite abundant and will surely meet everyone's needs."
