"Little girl, are you okay? I heard that old man Nanyuan is causing you trouble?" Zhan Chi saw that the two of them looked unhappy.
Xiang Minghou ignored Zhan Chi and pulled her forward.
"Don't worry, Dad Zhan, it's okay." Ye Qianning turned around and said.
Zhan Chi was startled, then followed him: "Girl, you have something to tell Dad. That old man Nan Yuan is cunning and treacherous, and has many schemes."
"It's really okay. He can't jump in Dayu City."
"I'm glad you're okay."
"Dad, how much money did the Beili envoy bring this time?"
"Li Mu is indeed rich, but after paying off Ji Shengtang's things, he has very little left. Now he can't even get enough for the birthday gift for Old Prince Feng."
“So poor.”
poverty?
Zhan Chi had a smile on his face, but he didn't even consider how much money he had paid to Ji Shengtang. He would definitely be scolded when he returned to Beijing.
"I wanted to cheat him out of more money, but since he has no money, forget it."
"If you don't have money, you can write an IOU. IOUs stamped by Li Mu will be honored in all the major chambers of commerce in Beili."
Ye Qianning's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Zhan Chi nodded.
"That's easy."
Ye Qianning was dragged away, turning his head to chat with Zhan Chi.
"Marquis Xiang Ming, why are you pulling her?" Zhan Chi realized something was wrong.
Xiang Minghou had a dark face.
"Marquis Xiang Ming..."
Ye Qianning hissed at him.
Zhan Chi was puzzled: "Why?"
Ye Qianning took a furtive glance before turning back and whispering, "Sang Zhi is here. Dad almost got into a fight with him just now."
Zhan Chi's puzzled face froze slightly when he heard Sang Zhi's name, and then suddenly became gloomy.
Why is the Eighth Prince here?
"Kill dad?"
"Little girl, you should have less contact with him in the future." Zhan Chi raised his head with a serious face.
"Why?"
Zhan Chi had a complicated expression, his brows furrowed, and he did not answer.
The three of them didn't speak again along the way and returned to Yanhui Inn.
Only after they returned to the room did Xiang Minghou let her go.
"Dad, don't be angry."
Ye Qianning felt that it might be because of what happened in the past that the old men couldn't let go, so they had a grudge against Sang Zhi.
"Fatty, Dad doesn't want you to have anything to do with him anymore." Xiang Minghou said solemnly.
"Why?"
"He...he's different now than when he was little."
"People always change. Dad, look at me. I am different now than when I was a child. I can't blame him for what happened back then."
"You... Hey, girl, you have been on the island for many years and don't know anything about him. He is a very dangerous person now. Listen to your father and don't get too close to him." Xiang Minghou said earnestly.
Very dangerous?
Ye Qianning thought of the aura that Sang Zhi had just emitted in Xianhai Tower. It was a killing power that was invisible and indeed terrifying.
"Little girl, just listen to your father." Zhan Chi rarely agreed with Xiang Minghou.
Ye Qianning thought about it again and again but couldn't help asking: "Dad Zhan, you are in Beili, closest to him, can you tell him what happened?"
Zhan Chi looked embarrassed.
"father."
"He is a lunatic." Xiang Minghou said coldly.
"What's the meaning?"
Crazy? How crazy?
"Although I don't care and don't pay much attention to him, I know that when he goes crazy, he will kill everyone around him, and his methods are extremely cruel." Xiang Minghou said.
Ye Qianning's eyes were filled with shock.
"The Eighth Prince, when he goes crazy, he can't recognize people. Besides, who knows how many people are secretly watching him with his eyes. Sooner or later, he will become a fish on the chopping board." Zhan Chi said in a deep voice.
"What about his inner strength?"
Zhan Chi shook his head. "That year, he went to the General's Mansion to see you. On his way back, he disappeared for a few days. When he was found by the Royal Guards, a powerful internal force had been transferred into his body. As for who it was, no one knows to this day."
No one knows...
It turns out he wasn't lying.
Ye Qianning clenched his fingers slightly. The internal energy in his body was even stronger than hers. He was so young at that time and had never practiced martial arts before. He was infused with powerful internal energy, and he was still alive...
It takes a lot of perseverance to get through this.
"Girl, your father didn't approve of you going to Beili. If you get involved with him again, how can he feel at ease?" Xiang Minghou didn't want her to be trapped in Beili.
I don't want her to be involved with the Beili royal family.
Ye Qianning calmed down his inner fluctuations and nodded: "Dad, I understand."
"As long as you understand."
——
The day before the birthday banquet, Prince Feng rewrote the invitation and changed the restaurant for the banquet. The restaurant was located opposite Xianhai Tower.
That same day, the restaurant replaced its signboard with a large one, with several large golden characters on it, congratulating Prince Feng on his birthday.
Many people in Dayu City knew what happened in Xianhai Tower, and they laughed at Old Prince Feng behind his back. They heard that several guards were killed, but in the end he still had to buy someone else's Xianhai Tower.
In the end, I was almost shocked to death by the price of Xianhailou.
The price of 118 million spread all over Dayu City, and no matter who heard the price, they were shocked and speechless.
Many people also rumored that Xianhailou mainly sold Nanyuan aquatic products, so the 118 million was earned from the people of Nanyuan.
Many merchants from Nanyuan were envious and resentful of Xianhailou. Gu Shuo bought the aquatic products with just a few copper coins and sold them at such a high price. In ten years, he made so much money.
The 118 million is the hard-earned money of the people of Nanyuan. The ten-year deadline is about to expire, and the people of Nanyuan will never sign the contract this time.
They sell it on their own and make a lot of money.
Such a large sum of money soon reached the ears of the representatives of the four-nation chamber of commerce. If anyone signed a contract with Nanyuan, they would make a lot of money. And with the newly produced fruits in Nanyuan, there were opportunities to make money everywhere.
Thinking of this, the representatives of the Three Kingdoms Chamber of Commerce paid more attention to Prince Feng’s birthday.
Li Mu from Beili Chamber of Commerce searched for two days but couldn't find a decent birthday gift. One reason was that he didn't have enough money, and the other was that he didn't have anything he liked.
Tomorrow is the old prince's birthday. If I fail to curry favor with him and cannot go on business with Nanyuan, the emperor will definitely be furious.
"Sir." The guard came in hurriedly.
"how?"
"Sir, a colorful gem has appeared on West Street. It's even more beautiful than the night-shining pearls treasured in the imperial palace."
Li Mu's eyes lit up: "Let's go and take a look."
——
After midnight it is June 12th.
Gu Shuo and Chen Lao were delayed on the road for half a day and only hurried into the city at midnight.
"Gu Shuo, go directly to Yanhui Inn." Old Chen couldn't wait.
"Mr. Chen, you must have been exhausted from the journey. Today is your birthday. I will first send you to Xianhai Tower to wash up so that you can have a good rest." Although Gu Shuo was also very anxious, it was a little late when he saw the time.
"No need to rest, I'll go now."
"Mr. Chen, you look haggard. Going to see her like this will only make her worry. Mr. Chen, please take a short rest in Xianhai Tower to recuperate. Besides, it's almost midnight now, and she will definitely be very busy tomorrow. Mr. Chen, please let her rest more."
Old Chen glanced at the sky, hesitated for a moment and nodded. Why did he have to rush into the city at midnight?
Gu Shuo sent Old Chen to Xianhai Tower, gave him some instructions, and then turned and left.
