The concubine Jiaojiao has high means, but the sick prince does not flirt

Chapter 304 Buying News

She said aloud from the side: "You two big men, don't get bored, get down to business quickly, and don't delay Wan Shitong's rest."

One sentence also relieved Shen Changyan, and he took advantage of the situation and said: "My lady is very right, let's get down to business first."

Only then did Wanshitong let the two into the room, and he sat beside Shen Changyan.

Shen Changyan didn't look sideways, and spoke with a face as heavy as water.

"I'm here today to inquire about a person. As for the price, I'll let you know."

Wan Shi Tong put his hand on his shoulder and asked teasingly, "I want you to accompany me..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Changyan grabbed his hand and took it away.

"This son is here today to do business, not to have fun, so please ask Mr. Wan to make an offer."

Wanshitong pursed his lips in displeasure and snorted: "It's really boring, I can't even make a joke, I feel a little sad for you Meijiao Niang, how can such a cold person live a good life?"

When Bai Zhi heard this, she couldn't hold back immediately.

She looked at Shen Changyan affectionately, and said with a solemn smile: "I prefer such indifferent people, so we got married."

Wanshitong was stunned when he heard this, then he laughed, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Miaozai, what a beautiful girl, I like it."

"Let's ask Mr. Wan to make an offer, maybe a big client will come again later, so you don't have to waste your time." Naturally, Bai Zhi didn't want to tangle with him, so she also urged her aloud.

Wanshitong didn't evade excuses, but sat upright, his face became serious, and he changed his tone.

"Tell me first who you are asking."

Shen Changyan replied: "I don't know who came to ask, but my wife can draw a portrait of that person."

"Oh? Meijiao Niang still has this ability?"

Wanshitong raised his eyebrows, then turned his head and shouted towards the bedroom: "Bring a pen, ink, paper and inkstone."

With a crisp response, a handsome young man brought out a tray containing pens, inks, papers and inkstones.

Shen Changyan nodded towards Bai Zhi and said softly: "Madam, draw a portrait of that man."

Bai Zhi picked up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and quickly finished drawing the man she saw at the third prince's mansion last night.

When Wan Shitong saw the portrait, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Mei Jiao Niang, is this man involved with you?"

Bai Zhi shook her head, and replied quietly: "No, I don't know each other."

Wan Shitong said oh, nodded and smiled: "I'm just saying, he..."

Before he finished speaking, he stopped and looked at Shen Changyan.

"Master, what are you asking about this man?"

Shen Changyan raised his eyebrows and asked back, "When did Wanshitong change its principles?"

Wanshitong showed embarrassment on his face, he chuckled, covered his mouth and said, "I hate it, why don't people be allowed to be curious?"

Shen Changyan said seriously: "I'm here to buy news and do business. I hope Wan Shi Tong can also do business."

Wanshitong sighed helplessly: "Okay, who made you the son of the world? I bid 1 taels of gold, otherwise it's not enough to buy this person's identity..."

After Bai Zhi heard this, she couldn't help but whisper, 1 taels of gold is not a small sum.

But her face remained calm, and she hummed lightly: "It's just a person's identity, no matter how noble and mysterious, how can it still be worth 1 taels of gold? 1 taels of silver..."

Wanshitong shook his head and said solemnly: "This is not an ordinary person. Behind the scenes... In short, my asking price has always been comparable to the news. Since the two of you feel that it is not worth it, then please go ahead."

This person looked very greasy, but he didn't give in at the critical moment.

Bai Zhi turned to look at Shen Changyan.

The two exchanged eye contact.

"It's a deal, I hope it's worth the money." Bai Zhi said in a deep voice.

Wanshitong gave her a thumbs up and praised: "It really is the son of the world's woman, a heroine, and she is straightforward, absolutely worth it!"

Then he told the two about the identity of the beautiful man they met at the Third Prince that night.

It turns out that his name is not Linglong, but Zhao Youfa.

Linglong is a stage name, he used to be an actor, and he was also a character.

Later, she was chosen by the third prince and brought into the prince's mansion. From then on, she stopped singing and became the third prince's entourage, and named her Linglong.

"Just a doorman?" Bai Zhi asked calmly seeing that Wanshitong stopped talking.

Wanshitong smiled mysteriously, gave her a thumbs up and praised: "It really is a beautiful girl, and you can see the clues inside. She is a doorman in name, but in fact she is the third prince's actor, but this matter has not been made public. After all, the third prince wants to inherit Datong, no one thinks about it. But it can't escape my eyes... Once the third prince brought him to buy news, and I understood it when I saw the proud look. Ha, is this news worth 1? Two gold?"

Bai Zhi smiled slightly, and snorted: "It might be worth it before the Third Prince's accident, but now..."

Although she didn't say the latter words, the meaning is obvious. The third prince is dead, and he committed suicide in fear of crime. It doesn't matter whether he has a sleeve-cutting habit or not.

Shen Changyan echoed: "Just this is not worth ten thousand taels of gold."

Know-it-all is in a hurry: "I have a bigger secret."

With an expression of disbelief, Bai Zhi said with a smile: "What bigger secret can there be? It can't be that the official family still has the habit of cutting off sleeves, right?"

Wanshitong shook his head, and said anxiously: "Of course it's not this, but that Linglong heard that after the incident with the third prince, he retreated all over his body. He will definitely avenge the third prince, and he knows the Taoist against heaven..."

Upon hearing Taoist Against Heaven, Bai Zhi was overjoyed in her heart, but her face was indifferent, and she didn't take the words of know-it-all seriously.

Shen Changyan is naturally the same, it will be Wanshitong's turn to be anxious.

If his news is not worth the price, then the signboard will be smashed, and who will come to him to buy news?

"Linglong knows how to find the Taoist against the sky. Presumably the two of you know who the Taoist against the sky is? At the beginning, he was suppressed with all the power of the whole country. Now that many years have passed, I am afraid that there is no one in the field of cultivation. He is still invincible. She is in retreat, so Linglong is still in the capital, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge. When the Taoist against the sky left the customs, Linglong went to him to tell him about this matter. The capital of the Great Xia Kingdom may be reduced to ruins. I am ready anytime He ran away and moved his shop to Dayan Kingdom."

Bai Zhi nodded secretly when she heard what he said so well that they understood it well.

This know-it-all is really capable, and he actually knows such a secret thing.

"Do you know where Taoist Against Heaven is?" She asked tentatively.

Wan Shitong replied honestly: "I don't know, I haven't reached that level yet. I heard that Taoist Nitian lives in Penglai. In recent years, no one can find him unless he wants to see someone. And he never meets people." I will be in the place where I live, I know everything, and there are times when I can’t, it’s just because the Taoist against the sky is unpredictable, and extraordinary people can pry into it.”

Only then did Bai Zhi nodded slightly: "Young Master Wan is no wonder his business is flourishing, he has news, he has integrity, and he won't cheat."

Knowing everything was praised, he looked happy, and hurriedly asked: "Is the news worth it?"
