Domineering in the East Palace: The owl girl takes the crown prince on the bar

Chapter 150

Dadong nodded: "Miss is the most beautiful lady I have ever seen."

Is it really her?Li Zeshu pondered.

"Mr. Li, I've already told you what Miss said. I'm going back." Dadong stood up and said honestly.

Li Zeshu regained his senses from his contemplation, and looked at Dadong calmly, his eyes shone brightly: "How did you get here?" This man's clothes were in tatters, his face was sallow and emaciated, and his body was covered in dust. He was clearly a man. little beggar...

Dadong raised his eyes in confusion, and replied honestly: "Xiaoliang asked me to beg for food." Otherwise, he wouldn't have walked here for a month. Xiaoliang is smarter than him, so he must have gone back a long time ago. Here, Dadong's face was a little anxious: "Mr. Li, I'll go back first." He couldn't go back too late.

"Wait, since your lady asked you to invite me, then tomorrow you will lead the way, and we will go to Shahe City together."

Dadong Yixi: "Will you take a carriage?"

Li Zeshu nodded: "Yes, take a carriage."

"Who is Xiaoliang?" Li Zeshu glanced at Dadong and asked casually.

"Xiao Liang came out with me, but I came to find Mr. Li, and Xiao Liang went to find a man named Xiao Lai'er."

half a month later.

The autumn is cool and crisp, the wind blows the leaves rustling, Chu Wanyou is sitting on the corridor with proud people in her arms, the two mother and son are having fun.

Dadong ran into the yard, looked at Chu Wanyou who was sitting there, and said happily, "Miss, Mr. Li is here with me."

Chu Wanyou smiled slightly and nodded: "You can go to Mrs. Ping to get your money."

"Yes, thank you miss."

Li Zeshu walked into the courtyard slowly, seeing the familiar layout made him understand clearly, when he looked up at Chu Wanyou who was sitting there, his expression was slightly taken aback.

"Take the liberty to invite Mr. Li, and let Mr. Li travel a long distance. Chu Wanyou is very grateful." Chu Wanyou picked up the proud man and stood up, bowing his head as a gesture.

Li Zeshu recovered from his stupefaction, turned his gaze away from Ao Ren, stepped forward, suppressed the surprise in his heart, and smiled gently: "Miss Chu, you are welcome." Is she married?Have a baby?
"I don't know why Miss Chu invited Li to come here?" After the two sat down, Li Zeshu asked aloud.

Chu Wanyou lowered her head, looked at the proud man in her arms, and said indifferently: "I have a deal, I wonder if Mr. Li is interested in investing?"

Li Zeshu's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled gently: "I don't know what kind of business it is?" She invited him from such a serious distance, this business is probably unusual, isn't it?

Chu Wanyou raised her head, looked directly at him, and said slowly, "Lend me 10 taels of gold."

Li Zeshu remained silent for a long time, and Chu Wanyou was not in a hurry, with a calm expression.

"The girl praised Li, but it's a pity that Li is just a businessman who has nothing to worry about. The girl is busy, and Li thinks he can't do anything." Li Zeshu lowered his eyes and said calmly.

Chu Wanyou smiled slightly: "It's okay, it's hard for me to force others. It's rare for Mr. Li to come to this remote Shahe. I have asked Mrs. Ping to book a room for you at the inn. Mr. Li may as well take a look around. Maybe there will be Mr. Li here." Interested business is also possible.”

Li Zeshu got up: "Thank you, Miss, but Li is busy with chores and has to return home tomorrow."

Chu Wanyou smiled faintly, turned her head and said: "Sister-in-law Ping, please invite Mr. Li to rest at the inn. Mr. Li will leave the city early in the morning."

"Yes, miss." Mrs. Ping came out from the house, and respectfully asked Li Zeshu: "Mr. Li, please!"

In the guest room of the inn, Li Zeshu released the turmoil in his heart. He had thought along the way, why she invited him here?But when he understood what she meant, he was really shocked beyond belief.

10 taels of gold, such a huge sum, its use is not hard to guess, what does she want to do?
In the evening, the noise made Li Zeshu come to the window. There were obviously more people on the street than when he came to the inn at noon. Many people in carriages, sedan chairs, and crowds did not seem to be local people.

Knock, knock... There was a knock on the door.

Li Zeshu sat back at the table and said in a deep voice, "Please come in."

"Mr. Li came from a long way. If you don't mind, I will accompany Mr. Li to the Shahe market. The market here is very lively in the evening." He even went through a careful make-up. At first glance, he looks very ordinary, and it won't make people think he is a woman.

When Li Zeshu saw Chu Wanyou's outfit, he was slightly stunned: "Miss Chu?"

Chu Wanyou smiled slightly: "It's me, please." Li Zeshu thought for a while, then stood up and said, "Please."

The two got into the carriage at the door, and Chu Wanyou ordered: "Go to the market."

The sunset is red, the autumn wind is blowing, with a faint fishy smell, fishing boats of all sizes are docked on the shore, and they are bathed in the afterglow of the sunset, and the crowds coming and going make this place a beautiful picture.

After getting off the carriage, everyone who saw Chu Wanyou along the way greeted him respectfully: "Young Master Qiao."

Li Zeshu looked at the people beside him, and couldn't hide his surprise, not because many people here were familiar with her, but because the scene in front of him surprised him.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have thought that there would be so many foreign businessmen waiting to open the market here.

There are so many kinds of fish placed by the river that he has never seen before.

Carp, silver carp, grass carp, herring, shrimp, silver white fish, mullet...everything!
"There is no harvest here, but this Shahe River is a precious river with rich and diverse fish species. I persuaded the people here to make a living by fishing four months ago, and the initial effect was good." Chu Wanyou responded to the passers-by. Say hello, said lightly.

The climate here is rainy, humid, and the temperature is not low. There are rich and diverse biological resources in the Shahe River. These people live in poverty. She encouraged them to make a living by fishing. Vendors and owners of restaurants and inns all choose to come here to buy goods, which are of high quality and low price.

Gradually, this place has also become the largest trade exchange city in Shahe City. Ordinary people can also exchange things here, and what is traded here is not just silver.

This fresh currency method quickly attracted enthusiastic responses from several surrounding towns, and some ordinary hawkers were also willing to come here, exchange the goods they brought from other cities for fresh fish, and then resell them... …

Li Zeshu took a deep look at her: "It won't take long for this place to become a rich fishery in Ruifeng country." If all the people here abandon farming for fishing, and through this simple exchange method, it will take less than a year Over time, more vendors will be attracted here.

Chu Wanyou nodded: "If there is no accident, this is for sure." Before the collapse of Ruifeng Kingdom's capital, this will be her base.

"But this is only suitable for a few surrounding towns, and places far away are not suitable for selling here. These fish are no longer edible when they go back."

Chu Wanyou smiled faintly, and pointed to two people not far away: "Fill the water in the river with wooden barrels, and raise the live fish. Relatively speaking, it solves certain difficulties."

Li Zeshu looked at the wooden barrel in the hands of the two men, which contained the fish they had just bought, and those fish were jumping in the wooden barrel.

"It's not a problem to keep it like this for two or three days."

Li Zeshu looked at the crowd in the bustling market in front of him with a calm expression, and after a while, he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was deep in thought.

When we returned to the courtyard, it was getting late, Chu Wanyou smiled and said, "Mr. Li, sit down for a while."

Li Zeshu nodded, watching her walk into the room, his eyes fell on Ao Ren and Da Dong who was sitting beside him.

I am more and more curious about Chu Wanyou in my heart, what if she is married?Then why don't you see her husband-in-law? If you are not married?Whose child is this?

Chu Wanyou entered the room, changed clothes and came out, looked at Li Zeshu who was staring at Ao Ren, and said calmly, "His name is Chu Ao Ren, my son."

Chu?Li Zeshu's eyes moved slightly, she is not married?

It's not that Chu Wanyou didn't notice Li Zeshu's guess, but she didn't take it seriously and didn't want to explain it.

Looking at the tears in the eyes of the proud Dadong who was there with him, he glanced at the bloody tooth marks on Dadong's hand: "Dadong, you go and help Mrs. Ping. If I'm not here, you just sit on the bed." There, don't get close to the arrogant man, he has teeth, and the bite hurts."

"But... but Young Master Ao Ren can climb, I'm afraid he will fall." Dadong pointed to Ao in the small bed and said.

"Let him fall, and he will know the pain. Don't let the arrogant bite you again."

"Oh" Dadong responded obediently.

Looking at the proud man who was smiling happily at her sitting in the small bed, Chu Wanyou sighed lightly, and nodded his proud little nose, "Dadong is honest, if you bite me, you won't lose your temper." Dadong has a gentle and honest temperament, and the seven-month-old proud man is just in the period of teething, and he likes to bite people, and Dadong is his target, and he often bites him without making a sound, which is also rare Let proud people not exclude him from sitting beside him and looking after him.

Li Zeshu looked at the natural tenderness in her eyes, and was a little surprised. Every time he saw her, he seemed to see a different her.

"Miss, is the food served?" Mrs. Ping asked respectfully.

"Well, let's serve the food. After Mr. Li returns to the inn, he will have a good rest, and he will wake up tomorrow morning."

"Yes" Mrs. Ping stepped back.

Li Zeshu's pupils flickered slightly, she took the trouble to invite him, and let him go back like this?Is it just such an understatement to borrow 10 taels of gold, and after he refuses, stop trying to persuade him?
Chu Wanyou looked at the dishes served by Mrs. Ping, and said with a smile, "These are all fresh fish from the Shahe River. They are made in different ways. Young Master Li, try them."

Li Zeshu looked at nearly half of the fish dishes on the table. From the first glance, just looking at the dishes made people's index fingers twitch.

He picked up the chopsticks, picked up the nearest piece and put it in his mouth, the meat was tender and delicious, really good...
