Li Qingluo and the other two simply had a meal at Fumanlou.
This meal was not cheap, and cost Li Qingluo two taels of silver.
When Nanny Deng paid the bill, Li Qinglu felt a pang of pain in his heart.
In the past, this was something she would never have dared to think about.
Now she can spend so much on a meal.
Que'er said, "Miss, what's that? We've already been restrained. It's not uncommon for those young men and women to spend five, ten, even dozens or even a hundred taels of silver on a meal when they go out."
Li Qingluo: "Is the restaurant so profitable?"
She knew that some restaurants and street food stalls all had normal prices.
If this happened in a restaurant, she would have only ordered a few dishes today, but the price had increased countless times.
Seeing that she was interested, Que'er asked, "Miss, do you want to turn our teahouse into a restaurant?"
Before Li Qingluo could express her opinion, Matron Deng continued, "This restaurant is indeed profitable. However, as far as I know, eight out of ten new restaurants that opened in Jinling City this year closed down before lasting more than three months. Why is this? Do you know, young lady?"
Li Qingluo looked interested: "Madam, tell me about it."
Nanny Deng: "Opening a new restaurant in Jinling City is truly not easy. A restaurant needs a customer base, unique dishes, decor, chefs, and so on. Most importantly, it needs to be innovative to break through the siege of these old restaurants in Jinling City."
"Also, young lady, although Jinling City is so prosperous, most of the restaurants and shops are controlled by wealthy families. Which high-ranking official's family doesn't have ten or twenty shops?"
"While the gentlemen are making great strides in the officialdom, the ladies are adept at navigating the business world. It's no exaggeration to say that they control the entire Jinling City's business."
"Girl, don't underestimate these tricks."
Li Qingluo: "What is easy to do? I will consider this matter."
The master and his two servants got off the boat and prepared to go home.
When Li Qingluo was about to get on the carriage, a woman suddenly rushed towards her with a terrified look on her face, pushing a cart.
"Make way, make way—"
Li Qingluo and the other two dodged immediately, but the carriage was frightened and lost control with a scream.
Li Qingluo was afraid that the out-of-control carriage would injure someone, so she immediately shouted, "Mammy! Stop the carriage!"
Nanny Deng ran after her, but the woman fell to the ground along with the out-of-control cart.
Que'er kindly went to help her. The woman said thank you, but when she stood up, her expression suddenly changed and she pulled out a knife and stabbed Que'er.
"careful!"
At the critical moment, Li Qing took out the dagger from his sleeve and stretched it out to block the sword for Que'er.
"girl!"
Que'er shouted, angrily drew the soft sword from his waist, and immediately fought with the woman.
Li Qingluo held his numb wrist and did not join the fight.
She had a strange feeling in her heart, always feeling that this matter seemed to be directed at her.
She had been standing by, watching that Que'er had not suffered any loss, and then she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, more and more people gathered around to watch the fun, and some even squeezed behind Li Qingluo.
At this moment, Li Qingluo heard a voice suddenly come from behind her, a voice that only she could hear clearly: "There are still many of our people in this crowd. You can deal with one or two, but if there are more, can you really save your lives?"
"Second Miss, if you want them both to live, follow me."
After saying that, the man turned around and walked back.
Li Qingluo stared coldly at the back, it was another woman.
She looked at Que'er again, and in the end she was not stupid enough to follow her and leave. Instead, she rushed out with the dagger tightly in her hand.
Since Li Qingluo started learning martial arts, he has never really fought with anyone.
Apart from the fights between her and Nanny and Que'er, she had no idea how dangerous it would be to fight with outsiders.
So, she just used her killer move as soon as she arrived!
As for the other party's threats?
Eat shit!
If you want to lure her away, you can't hurt her life easily. Besides, the other party hasn't revealed his identity or the purpose of looking for her yet, so she will definitely surrender!
Li Qingluo moved swiftly and cooperated with Que'er, and they took down the woman in a few moves.
The crowd surged in an instant, and Li Qingluo suddenly felt a chill down her spine, sensing at least a dozen pairs of eyes staring at her...
At this moment, an angry shout came from the front: "Who is causing trouble here?! Everyone, disperse!"
Li Qingluo looked up and saw Li Chaojing riding a tall horse towards her.
Li Chaojing was also shocked when he saw Li Qingluo in men's clothing.
"Luo'er!?"
On the back of another horse behind Li Chaojing, Zhuang Wei was sitting with his hands tied.
When he saw Li Qingluo, Zhuang Wei's eyes flashed with surprise.
Why is she here?
Still this outfit!
Moreover, why did she look so familiar to him in this outfit?
Also, if he saw correctly just now, she seemed to be fighting with someone! ?
Li Qingluo didn't expect that she would meet her emotionless father by such a coincidence.
But this is just fine.
She quickly brought Que'er and the woman forward, "Father. This woman just came with a plot against me, and we've already subdued her. Please, Father—"
Before Li Qingluo finished speaking, there was a "whoosh" sound in the sky, and the woman was hit by an arrow.
He fell to the ground with his eyes wide open, and died instantly.
There was chaos and screams on the street.
Li Qingluo was immediately protected in the middle of the circle by Que'er and the attendants and guards brought by Li Chaojing.
