181. Chapter 181: The Misogyny Emperor vs. the Wife of a Powerful Official (33)



Jiang Li's eyes flickered slightly, and she moved forward calmly to see what was behind the secret door. At this time, the servant who had just finished drinking the water turned around. Afraid that he would notice something unusual, Jiang Li pretended to be calm and stopped where she was, looking at the dress in front of her.

"How is it, young master? You have looked at all these cloths and ready-made clothes. Do you like any of them? If so, I will pack them for you and send them to your house later!"

The servant directly provided door-to-door service to Jiang Li, looking at him expectantly.

He originally thought that Jiang Li was wealthy, and since he had been talking to her for so long, Jiang Li would definitely pick out ten or eight items to take away, but Jiang Li shook her head.

"I've seen these things in other shops. I thought your shop would have some outstanding clothes, but in the end they are all the same, nothing new."

Jiang Li shook her head in disappointment, and the servant was stunned by her lack of interest.

The servant stared blankly, his eyes wide open, and asked unwillingly, "Not even one?"

Jiang Li nodded slightly: "Not a single piece. The styles are similar to those in other stores. My wife's closet is already full of these clothes."

"Sir, why don't you take a closer look? My clothes are finely made, and some of the styles are new. As far as I know, other stores don't have these styles at all!"

The servant swore that before they put a new piece of clothing on the market, he would disguise himself as an ordinary citizen and go to other stores to inquire, making sure that the style was not available before seizing the opportunity. How could they all be the same?

"No need. I've looked at all these clothes. Do you have other styles in your store? Bring them to me for a look. If there's one that my wife likes, I'll give you a big reward!"

Jiang Li threw out the bait, trying to find out the secret behind the secret door from the servant. Her intuition told her that there must be another secret behind the secret door!

The waiter shook his head in disappointment: "No more, these are the only clothes we have in our store."

Seeing that the servant didn't mention the half-open secret door, Jiang Li pretended to be disappointed and sighed: "In this case, I will have to go to another house to have a look."

Jiang Li turned around after she finished speaking. Qing Zhu beside her also sighed in a fake manner: "Sir, what should we do now? Madam has always loved beauty. If I can't buy the dress Madam likes, I'm afraid Madam will make a fuss again."

Jiang Li shrugged: "What can I do? Who knew that Madam was so obsessed with skirts? I just bought more than 20 dresses in Linglong Pavilion a few days ago, and now I don't like them anymore after just a few days."

The conversation between the two was clearly heard by the servant, whose eyes widened. Twenty or twenty dresses? After hearing Jiang Li say that her wife bought more than twenty dresses at Linglong Pavilion in one go, the servant quickly calculated how much commission he would get if he sold more than twenty dresses at once.

It’s hard to calculate. It’s impossible to calculate at all.

At this time, the servant was completely dizzy, immersed in the joy of how much silver he would get if he could sell more than twenty pieces of dresses in one go.

The young servant knew very well that opportunities are rare and will never come back, and he knew that he had to hold on to this big money man in front of him today no matter what, and he couldn't let others get such a good deal!

Thinking of this, the servant called out to Jiang Li and Qing Zhu when they were about to step out of the shop.

"Sir, wait a moment!"

Jiang Li and Qing Zhu stopped in an instant, looked at each other, and a hint of cunning flashed across their eyes.

"Anything else?"

Jiang Li looked at the servant in puzzlement.

The servant smiled flatteringly and walked towards him quickly: "Sir, don't leave in a hurry. I suddenly remembered that our store has some other dresses, but they have been reserved in advance. But if you like them, I can sell them to you first and then make another batch for the people who have reserved them!"

Fearing that Jiang Li, the big money sponsor, would slip away, the servant grabbed her arm in a hurry.

He was stunned for a moment after grabbing Jiang Li's thin arm, but he didn't care when he thought about how the young men from wealthy families were playing around and exhausting themselves at a young age.

Isn’t his second young master a living example?

"Where are the clothes? If those clothes are pleasing to me, I will buy as many as you can get."

Jiang Li's words excited the servant. Thinking only of money, he had forgotten the shopkeeper's instructions and pulled Jiang Li towards the coffee table.

"Please wait a moment, sir. I will take you to see it right away!"

The servant moved the coffee table aside with ease and opened the half-closed door behind it completely.

The design of secret doors has always been ingenious. When closed, it looks like an ordinary wall and no one would think of it as a secret door.

After the secret door was opened, the scene inside came into Jiang Li's sight. Various brightly colored and revealing dresses were hung on the wall. At first glance, she thought she had stumbled into the lair of the girls in the brothel.

The moment this thought came to mind, a strange look flashed across Jiang Li's eyes.

It was a brothel! She had been to a brothel before, and she remembered what the girls in the brothel wore. Aren’t they the brightly colored, revealing dresses in front of her? Could it be that these clothes were specially prepared for the girls in the brothel? Jiang Li pursed her lips, and suddenly a bold idea popped up in her mind.

"Please look, sir. These are all the clothes we have in our store. If none of these suit your taste, then I really have no choice. You can only look for something else."

The servant made a gesture of invitation to Jiang Li and introduced her to her.

"Go in and take a look first."

Jiang Li nodded slightly and walked in first.

Qingzhu, who had been to the brothel with Jiang Li before, also noticed something was wrong and followed Jiang Li closely.

The servant, who was only thinking about earning commission, did not notice anything unusual about the two and followed them in happily.

After arriving at the room behind the secret door, Jiang Li looked at the dress in front of her carefully. When she touched the material of the dress, she was basically sure that this was the fabric worn by the girls in the brothel.

It seemed that these dresses were indeed prepared for the girls in the brothel. Now she seemed to understand why such a small shop could make so much profit every month.

The General's Mansion and the Flower House are secretly colluding! Jiang Li pursed her lips, looked at all the clothes here, memorized the styles of the clothes, and thought about going to the Flower House in person to confirm her guess.

"Sir, these are the most valuable treasures in our shop. Do you think any of them suit your taste?"

The servant came forward excitedly and asked.

Jiang Li shook her head: "None of these dresses are suitable for my wife. Forget it, I'll go look somewhere else."

The servant was poured with cold water on his head, and he woke up from his dream with the smile on his lips frozen.

Just as he was about to speak, Jiang Li blocked the servant's mouth with silver.

"But considering that the young man has been showing us around for so long, Xiaobai, give him some hard work fee."

Qingzhu's mouth twitched, and he silently took out his purse and took out some change to give to the servant as a reward for his hard work.

The servant was so excited that he couldn't close his mouth. He bowed to Jiang Li at a 90-degree angle and said, "Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir! Please come often in the future!"

After finding out what was going on in the shop, Jiang Li did not stay long. After she and Qingzhu came out of the shop, Shen Tingsi and the others also walked out of the tea stall.

Feng Jue looked at the two's backs with an inquiring look on his face: "Master, could it be that Miss Jiang is also investigating the strangeness of the General's Mansion?"
