Chapter 123 Besieged

"The third prince now regards you as someone on my side. It is uncertain when he will come to trouble you again, so it is better to be careful." Zhou Ximing sent the token to Bai Susu's hand again.

Thinking of the third prince who came over suddenly today, Bai Susu felt a little headache. If the third prince came again in the future, Bai Susu would really be overwhelmed.

"Okay, I accept it." Bai Susu put away the token in his hand.

"I came here today, and there is one more thing I want to discuss with you." Zhou Ximing looked at her, "The people from the sugar store have already set their sights on your dim sum shop."

"Candy?" Bai Susu frowned slightly, as if she didn't expect it to be so soon, "What did they notice?"

"As soon as you taste those snacks, you will know whether there is sugar in them, and the price of the snacks will quickly make them suspicious."

"My dim sum shop has only been open for a few days, but they are meticulous in their observation." Bai Susu looked helpless, never expecting that business is so difficult now.

"Although the shop has only been open for a few days, its reputation has already spread." Zhou Ximing looked at Bai Susu, "When I was discussing with several ministers in the study, I saw a minister bring your shop. dessert."

Bai Susu had already noticed some of it when she was selling cakes before, so she didn't feel so surprised. She paused, "So the sugar store has made some moves?"

"I guess they are also watching, and they are also curious about where you got the candy." Zhou Ximing looked at the people around him with a low voice, "Are you interested in doing business with me?"

"You mean the sugar business?" Bai Susu asked back.

"Yes." Zhou Ximing nodded, "I want to start the sugar business with you, and take this opportunity to pull down the four families that have controlled the sugar business for many years."

"Okay." Bai Susu nodded in response, and then asked: "Then who is the most suitable person to come forward?"

After all, Zhou Ximing is the prince, so using this capacity to intervene in the affairs of the sugar business will inevitably lead to criticism.And Bai Susu is now running a dim sum shop, and she has no skills at all.

"I've already thought of someone." Zhou Ximing looked at Bai Susu, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and said word by word, "Xiao Jingyu."

"That's right, why did you forget him?" Xiao Jingyu was originally in business, and there were quite a few restaurants and shops under him. If it was said that he spent a lot of money to research a new sugar craft, that would be justified.

"It is estimated that in less than three days, there will be another Xiao's sugar store in the capital."

Bai Susu and Zhou Ximing looked at each other and smiled, and they both saw expectations in each other's eyes.

In the next three days, Bai Susu still opened the door to make pastries, more and more people lined up, and all kinds of people came to buy pastries.

Many of them asked her why they were selling so cheaply when they bought pastries.But without exception, they were all dismissed by Bai Susu with vague words.

After selling the cakes on the fourth day, closing the door of the pastry shop, Bai Susu walked towards the East Market in a leisurely manner.

Today, the Xiao's sugar store in Dongshi officially opened, and the price of sugar inside is clearly marked, and the price is obviously much lower than that of other sugar shops.

On the way, Bai Susu felt someone following her.When she turned around, she saw nothing.She walked slowly towards Dongshi, and when she passed by an empty alley, she stopped in her tracks.

Standing there, turned around and looked at the empty road, "You have followed all the way, there is no one here, should you come out?"

There was still silence all around, Bai Susu was not in a hurry, just stood there quietly and waited.After a while, the person hiding inside came out with a stick.

The leading man was wearing a blue shirt and holding a stick in his hand. He smiled kindly at Bai Susu, "Girl, the Patriarch of my family wants to invite the girl to his house as a guest."

"It's the first time I've seen someone come to invite me to be a guest with a stick." Bai Susu looked at the people behind him with a mocking look on his face.

The man in the blue shirt smiled again, his voice was still gentle, "It's not because I was afraid that the girl would disagree, so I had to bring some things with me."

"Is this intended to be soft or hard?" Bai Susu looked sideways at the people behind him, and weighed it in her heart to see how likely she was to have done to these people.

"That depends on how the girl chooses." There was a dark light in the eyes of the man in the blue shirt, and the long stick in his hand was tightly held by him, ready to strike at any time.

"Choose neither." Bai Susu rushed over, kicked the head man in the chest, and hit his wrist bone with his elbow, forcing him to let go.

The stick in his hand rolled down and fell into Bai Susu's hand.Turning the stick in her hand, she hit the man in green shirt directly on the legs, a look of coldness flashed in her eyes.

"Go back and tell your master, the next time you invite someone to be a guest, be more polite and less dark." She threw the man in the green shirt on the ground, looked up at the servant standing behind her, and indifferently picked up his hand. Leave here with a stick.

The man in the green shirt knelt on the ground, rubbed his legs, and looked at the person who left, with a look of coldness in his eyes.

Some of his subordinates wanted to step forward and knock Bai Susu unconscious at this time. Just as he ran over, Bai Susu bent down as if he had expected it long ago, and let the man miss out. He turned around flexibly, Hit him on the back of the neck, knocking him out.

She turned the stick in her hand, looked at the hesitant people behind her, and gave a warning, "If there is another sneak attack, I will hit you on the head."

After all, these are servants. Although they look vicious, they are all people without much courage. After being threatened by Bai Susu, they all stood where they were and did nothing else.

Bai Susu came out of the alley with a stick in her hand, and went to the sugar store in Dongshi.

Sitting at the door, Xiao Jingyu looked at the endless stream of guests, and the smile in his eyes never stopped.The fan in his hand was opened, and it was fanned again and again, showing his happiness at this time.

Turning around to see Bai Susu approaching, Xiao Jingyu's eyes fell on the stick in her hand, with surprise in his eyes, the fan in his hand was closed by him, "You came to my shop, what are you doing with a stick?"

"On the way here, someone wants to invite me to the mansion." Bai Susu waved the stick in his hand, and added, "Please."

The smile on Xiao Jingyu's face disappeared, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the stick in Bai Susu's hand, "Did you take this stick from those people?"

"Yeah." Bai Susu handed it to him, "I don't know which family it is, but they paid attention to me."
