[Caiyun Kingdom] The beginning of people

Shangzhi three years, Xia.

"Zhang Sanniang?" Although she has suffered a lot, she still has the charm of a woman who speaks, "Don't tell me this." She turned her face away, with deep disgust in her eyes, but she still refused to say a word Vicious words.

It is more appropriate to say that it is disdain rather than reluctance, but she is not the kind of condescending disdain, but her long-term upbringing makes her unable to speak out. It seems that "disdain" is also inappropriate... Sitting in the private room on the second floor of the restaurant, I looked out with a teacup in my hand, thinking about this question boredly.

"Miss?" Xin Zi, who took over Licorice as my personal maid years ago, came over with a snack.

I pointed her to the woman downstairs who was gradually going away, "That's the daughter of the former magistrate of Longqing County in Heizhou, Miss Xiao Gui. Her father was beheaded because of a major case, and her family was ruined. Then she After wandering to and fro in the capital, I married a commoner." I put down my teacup, and took the dim sum from Xinzi's hand, "Unfortunately, I met an unkind person, and my husband forcibly pawned her out in exchange for money. Finally, I finally got rid of my husband. , brought his son to live elsewhere, and remarried a wealthy businessman from Lanzhou a few years ago, and now he has both children, which is the end of all hardships." When a woman wants to find a way, she is very capable.

Xinzi refilled a cup of tea for me, "Someone related to Miss?"

I took a bite of the sweet but not greasy dessert, took out my handkerchief and bit my lips, and smiled at Xinzi, "I caused her family to be destroyed."

Xin Zi looked at me, and threw a piece of snack into her mouth, "No wonder that lady looks disgusted when someone mentions your name."

"...No, it's true that I hate it, but can you use some more euphemistic words?" I twitched the corner of my mouth, "For example, a look of displeasure or hesitation?"

Xinzi stuck out her tongue at me, "No."

I laughed out loud.While playing with Xin Zi, a blue sleeve passed through the beaded curtain at the door of the private room.

"San Niang seems to be quite leisurely today?" It was Lan Xuena, the patriarch of the Lan family who has become more and more romantic with the years, who lifted the curtain and entered.

We've known each other for several years, but I still can't figure out who the three Lan Xuenas named Xue, Yue, and Hua are, but they all have to stand up to greet each other.I rolled up my sleeves, stood up and greeted with a smile, "Sect Master Lan seems to have stolen his life today?"

With a smile on her lips, Lan Xuena sat down opposite me, "I've always been very idle, I'm afraid that Sanniang will blame me for coming uninvited and disturbing your pleasure."

Believe me, no matter which Lan Xuena it is, she is definitely not the polite type—at least not sincerely.I poured him a cup of tea, followed his wishes and asked Xin Zi to step back first, "How dare you, I don't know how many people are envious of being able to see Sect Master Lan."

"But Xiaolan isn't among these people, right?"

Hearing his name, I twitched the corner of my mouth again.Very good, I'm absolutely sure that the Lan Xue in front of me is the one who always plays tricks on me.I covered my forehead, "Sect Master Lan, if I say that I really want to be alone for a while today, will you leave?"

"No." He stretched out a finger and stroked his lips lightly, "I saved Sanniang that day, but I didn't expect Sanniang to be so ruthless that she wouldn't even be perfunctory to me for half a day." His pair of The peach blossom eyes rolled, and the whole person was so handsome that it made people breathless, "Even if it is the suzerain of the Lan family, you treat it like this?" He chuckled, "Isn't it too bold? If I say that the Lan family intends to fight What about the All-Commerce Federation?"

...First, please don't generate electricity casually with mobile generators; second, stop threatening and luring me, okay?I sat back on my seat and said helplessly, "Sect Master Lan, if you are just bored, Sanniang will accompany you." He actually appeared in Jade Dragon City from time to time, probably because he was really bored.

"Is it for the benefit of the All Chamber of Commerce?"

"No," I shared the pastry, "playing is one thing, this is Sanniang's voluntary, and has nothing to do with the transaction. Whether you want to cooperate with the All-Commerce Federation is up to you."

"Isn't your attitude too casual?" He took the pastry I handed over, "Don't you want to become the president of the All-China Federation of Commerce with that chicken from the Huang family?" He teased me and the vice president of another general association. Huang Fengming, the second son of the president's Huang family, jointly emptied the president's affairs.

I smiled wryly and said, "Sect Master Lan, show mercy." Erji... "President," I shook my head, "Who wants to be such a troublesome thing?" Let me tell you, it's better to be carefree .

"You say you don't want to, but you will definitely step on other people's shoulders to climb up. Don't San Niang feel that she is too hypocritical?"

I smiled and said, "Yes, it's my fault. I'm very ambitious." It would be best if I could be powerful enough to tear you down, but unfortunately this is probably just an extravagant wish.Speaking of the Blue House, it would be great if they could agree to let Quanshanglian act as an agent for their newly launched spice blue orchid.No, if the Zhang family can take it...Suddenly, my nose was pinched by Lan Xuena.

"Miss Sanniang doesn't care," he smiled as if he wasn't the one who strangled me, "it's not good."

"..." I really wanted to crush him.Looking at him who let go of his hand, I covered my mouth and laughed.Forget it, this wayward young master.

Lan Xuena gracefully held the teacup and looked at the crowd of people outside the window, "San Niang wants blue orchids?"

I laugh while saying nothing.Talking to him is just begging for favors from the Lan family. If you want to talk about this kind of small business seriously, you still have to find their shopkeeper.

"Why didn't you just tell me? Sanniang's words, I can give it to you." He said in a nonchalant way, "I was able to transfer it because I saw Xiaolan."

"No, that's meaningless."

"Oh~ it's such a strong type."

I smiled, "People are always weird." I reached out and took the empty teapot, opened the lid, and brewed another pot, "If I don't want it, Sect Leader Lan wants to give it to me; but if I really If I accept it, Sect Master Lan will look down on me and never want to give me anything again. There is no free reap in the world, everywhere, even if the Eight Immortals come to help, people still need to pray first.”

Lan Xuena smiled softly, "That's why I always want to help Sanniang."

"That's really embarrassing." I held the kettle high and poured boiling hot water into the teapot. "We small businessmen are too far behind the Lan Sect Master. There is nothing for Lan Sect Master to help." Even if you want to borrow the strength of the Lan family, you can buy and sell clearly.

"I don't see you being so fussy about Guan Feixiang."

"That's brother, family."

"Family," he gave me a very technical masculine wink, "Then Sanniang will marry me."

I shook my head and laughed, "I won't marry a man younger than me for the reason of 'letting others help'."

"San Niang is a bit cruel to use her age as an argument."

Take marriage as an example, it's you who are cruel.I laughed again and lowered my head to make tea.

Lan Xue watched me making tea quietly. After receiving the tea I handed over, she sniffed it lightly, and then looked at the still lively street outside with a relaxed expression, "How long has it been since I dreamed of spring, scattered like autumn clouds without a place to find?" .”

I also poured myself a cup, "Advise you not to be a sober person, there should be a lot of drunken flowers."

In the flashy world, it is rare to be confused.

The restaurant we are in is under the name of Lan's family, the food and layout are really good, and Lan Xue is not difficult to get along with when she doesn't deliberately play tricks, so the two of us spent an afternoon here.Ah, the one who is more dissatisfied is probably Xin Zi.

"It's obviously a comfortable day for me and you," Xin Zi took a bite of the pastry on the way back, "Sect Master Lan is really troublesome."

I almost couldn't stand up laughing.To say that Lan Xue is troublesome is true in a sense, but he is probably just a person with a bit of a temper on weekdays, so it's okay to spend time with him.

"Xinzi, tea..." Just as I was about to say something, I felt a pain in the back of my head, my eyes darkened, and I passed out—

When I woke up, I covered my forehead and looked helplessly at the rotten Zheng Youshun who was smiling amiably across the face, "Youshun." That's too rough, hey.

"Sorry, Miss Zelan," Zheng Youshun sat leisurely, apologizing insincerely, "Because there is really no other way, and the situation is urgent, so I had to use this method to invite you here." He tilted his head and smiled , "Think of it as a sightseeing tour of the Chazhou Prison?"

Don't tilt your head to be cute. Hey.I covered my mouth and laughed, and waved my hands, "No, I have already visited such things as prisons when I was young." Obviously I was still in Lanzhou Yulong City before, but now hearing what he said, I am actually in Cha State yet?And what happened to the prison that was obviously used to hold serious criminals around him... How long did he knock me out this time?I covered my face helplessly, feeling more and more that my head was worthless.

Sure enough, in everyone's eyes, am I just a little bug?I cover my forehead.

"Miss Zeran, this time," he stood up, "please."

I also stood up and supported him, "Don't say that, I am very happy to have reached this point." I also know the situation in Chazhou.After decades of chaos in Chazhou, Hong Xiuli and Du Yingyue finally ushered in two new Jinshi scholars. For the first time in recent years, a state shepherd with a formal imperial examination background took office.After years of arrangement, it's time to wrap up.

"The most troublesome thing right now is Cha Shuo Xun," You Shun sat down along my hand, with a calm smile on his face, "But there is nothing to be afraid of, the Cha family will only kill themselves."

"If you do unrighteous deeds, you will die." I casually picked up the tea set beside him and made tea for him.

"If that's the case, my time of death will be near."

Zheng Youshun's methods are fast and ruthless. Generally speaking, it is really difficult to describe him as a righteous person, but... I smiled and said, "Youshun, have you discovered that good people always die earlier?" I smiled and gave He served a cup of tea, "So please don't worry, you can do as much as you want, and the people of Chazhou will miss You Shun who is so bad." If it weren't for this devil's hard work in the past ten years, God knows how long it would take Time will clear up the tea houses.

Maybe we are all just the stepping stones arranged by the author for the protagonist, but it is up to us to decide who is the protagonist and supporting role in life.What I have seen in the past ten years is the picture scroll of Chazhou with Zheng Youshun and Lang Yanqing as the protagonists.I sincerely admire Zheng Youshun.

You Shun was taken aback, then smiled again, and reached out to take the tea, "Miss Zelan is always as gentle as ever."

"You Shun is the one." You Shun, who said I was gentle as always, was the most gentle.

While chatting, footsteps sounded outside the prison, and I dodged and hid in a blind corner that I couldn't see outside the door under You Shun's signal.Having said that, I haven't asked Yushun why the two of us are locked in the cell together.No... some pictures flashed in my mind.According to the "plot", You Shun imprisoned himself in the cell of a felon in order to avoid the coercion of the Cha family...

"Zheng Youshun," the voice of Cha Caoxun, the eldest grandson of the patriarch's younger brother, came from outside the door, "It's okay if you don't come out, hand over the seals of acting Zhou Mu and Zhou Yin, and then join the Cha family, I will kindly forgive you You don’t die.” This awkward Chacao Xun also came to snatch my seal when the Jinhua Special Economic Zone was established.

Zheng Youshun smiled slightly, stood up with the help of the table, took out a bunch of keys from his arms, which was probably the key to the cell door, walked to the fire plate, and said, "I refuse." The bad guy threw the key into the fire.

The severe punishment cell has been firmly reinforced. Without the key, the people inside cannot get out, and the people outside cannot enter.

Cha Cao Xun said in a gloomy voice, "If I start a fire outside, even if it doesn't burn you to death, the smoke will suffocate you to death."

Zheng Youshun turned his hand in one direction smoothly, picked up the official seal on the table, and moved it over the fire plate, "In that case, you won't get the official seal either, you can just try."

Hey, don't ask me to die with you.Seeing Chacao Xun leave angrily, I walked out with a wry smile, "You Shun, do you really admire me so much?" Why do you want to be with me when you want to die?

"I really have something to discuss, so I must see you." Zheng Youshun's face remained unchanged, and he smoothly removed the official seal from the fire plate and put it back on the table.

I pulled a bunch of keys out of my pocket.This is a universal key made by the All-China Federation of Commerce. My series can even be used to open severe punishment cells. There are only three keys of the same type in the country—two keys belonged to me and Huang Fengming, another vice-chairman of the All-China Federation of Commerce. In his hand, the other is in the hand of Hong Lishen, the head of the Hong family.To be on the safe side, I also threw this bunch of multipurpose keys into the fire tray. Zheng Youshun didn't ask where the keys came from, but just watched the keys being swallowed by the flames with me.Even if he is really forced to death by a tea house outside, the official seal must not fall into their hands. Zheng Youshun and I are not lacking in such a little awareness, not to mention that this is just another trick that looks dangerous.Not only because of the drama, but as long as we have the official seal in hand, Cha Caoxun has not yet had the courage to burn us to death.

"Miss Zelan," You Shun stretched out his hand to sit down, and smiled slightly, "Shall we start discussing business?"

"Of course." I sat down at his invitation, and discussed with him the finalization of the layout of Chazhou with the flickering firelight.

The two new state shepherds are already on their way to the state capital, and the tea family has tried every means to prevent them from taking up their posts. I have already opened the business route of the All-Commerce Federation at the request of Hong Lishen for the convenience of the state shepherds, so there is no need to talk about it .What I want to focus on now is how to withhold the working capital of the tea house, in order to catch them all in one go and prevent anyone from escaping.The other thing is the criminal evidence. The State Shepherd's Mansion and I have prepared it long ago. I just need someone to sort out the part of the All-Commerce Federation.

After discussing the important matters, You Shun and I looked at each other and laughed at the same time.What is this all about?We are all trapped here, but we are still thinking about how to trick people outside.Bad people, bad people.

"You Shun, how are we going to get out?" My left hand slightly rolled up the right wide sleeve, and I took the teapot and refilled him a cup of tea.

"Yan Qing said that he has asked his master, Master Nan, how to do it specifically," a fake cute smile that had nothing to do with him floated on his pale face, "I don't know either."

"..." No, I don't want to be a spoiler anymore.It seems that Master Nan knocked You Shun unconscious, and then casually threw it on the streets of Jinhua... Then what should I do?I subconsciously touched the back of my head.

You Shun still has to deal with official business, so I will help him from the sidelines.Within a day, another visitor from the Cha family came to the cell, Cha Shuo Xun, Cha Cao Xun's younger brother.Hongxiu's male luck is too bad. Hey, why did he really mess with Cha Shuoxun?Having been operating here for many years, the only person Youshun and I really have a taboo against is the genius Cha Shuoxun of the tea house.

"Ah," after Cha Shuoxun left, You Shun still had a calm expression on his face, "It seems that Li Shen's niece has grown into a lovely young lady, and Li Shen is probably going to have a headache .”

You are definitely gloating.I sighed and sat down, "Sooner or later, Cha Shuo Xun will be defeated by Hongzhou Mu." Meeting the wrong person at the wrong time is all wrong.

"Just right," You Shun started writing with his back to me, "if he gets involved with such a lovely young lady, maybe even he can become a useful person. Every day he dangles around and does bad things all the time. You should pay a little for the food you used.”

"..." What a bad person, "What about Li Shen?" I don't know why, the first person that comes to mind after hearing You Shun's adjectives is Li Shen...

"Well, that's fine with Li Shen."

"..." Sure enough, it would be better for people to be useful.

"Miss Zelan," he turned around and handed an official document to me, "This is an official document authorizing the entire business to use force. If necessary, please send private soldiers to protect the two state shepherds."

I accepted it cautiously, "I understand." I put the official document in my arms and made a promise.

The next day, when I was helping You Shun with official documents, I suddenly felt a pain in the back of my head, and my eyes went dark, and I passed out again...
