(Supplemental for ten months. Monthly pass of 5,600 plus updates.)
Hearing that Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant's top courtesan would accompany him for tea, Miao Yi couldn't bear to refuse. He immediately nodded and smiled, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
The two of them left together.
Reverend Yuling walked out of the shop and watched Miao Yi enter Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant. His brows furrowed deeply. The Great Cave Master Miao didn't even blink when he lied to someone like the Deputy Steward. He had learned just now, and this made him very worried!
Inside the Heavenly Incense Tower, Miao Yi and Mama Xu walked into the room together and habitually walked towards the private room at the side. He usually went there.
"Wrong. Inside, upstairs!" Mama Xu suddenly pulled on Miao Yi's sleeve, and led him deeper into Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant.
Miao Yi was surprised, "Mama Xu, you usually say there are many women inside, but you don't allow men to enter casually." He had wanted to go in and take a look before, but was stopped.
"Miss Linglong wouldn't sit in a crowded place downstairs and drink tea. She's upstairs." Mama Xu smiled and pointed inside.
Since she invited him, Miao Yi wouldn't stand on ceremony. However, he felt that something was wrong today.
Walking to the back, he could hear the sounds of singing and singing, as well as the sound of stringed instruments. The people inside were probably practicing. Miao Yi wanted to go in and see how they were practicing, but Mama Xu pulled on his sleeve and pulled him up the stairs.
A cosmetics establishment was indeed a cosmetics establishment. As soon as he went upstairs, he immediately smelled the scent of a women's gathering place. The two of them went up to the fifth floor.
The fifth floor had decent soundproofing, giving off a sense of peace amidst the hustle and bustle. The layout and layout were also very different from below, appearing much more elegant and tranquil. Various short bamboos, flowers, and other potted plants were arranged in picturesque patterns. Miao Yi felt that this scene was a little familiar.
Walking to the door of a room, Mama Xu went up to lift the beaded curtain, and extended her hand to invite Miao Yi in.
It was an elegantly decorated living room. Walking to the door, Miao Yi peered inside and froze. He was instantly dumbfounded, and instinctively wanted to turn around and run.
Xue Linglong was indeed drinking tea inside, but there was someone sitting opposite her. It wasn't anyone else. It was Huang Fujun from the Hall of Heroes? Y。
Normally, he would run to the Hall of Heroes to see Huang Fujun. But seeing him in such a manner, the Great Cave Master Miao keenly sensed that something was wrong. He had a guilty conscience, and wanted to run.
Just as he was about to turn around … Huang Fujun? Y's voice could be heard faintly, "Are you trying to escape with a guilty conscience?"
Miao Yi, who had just taken half a step away, stopped and laughed, "Who's feeling guilty?" As he spoke, he tilted his head to look at Mama Xu.
Mrs. Xu, who had tricked him into coming, felt embarrassed.
"You don't have to stare at Mother Xu. This has nothing to do with Mother Xu. I asked Mother Xu to invite you here." Y pointed to the seat next to him. "You're quite influential. I had to think of a way to invite you here. Since you're here, do me the honor and have a cup of tea together. Cows have virtue. You won't not give me face, right? "
"Shopkeeper Huangfu is making a mountain out of a molehill. If there's anything, he could have just sent a servant to inform her. There's no need for Mother Xu to personally make a trip." Miao Yi said with a smile as he walked over. He first smiled and nodded at Xue Linglong, then sat down on a rattan chair.
Xue Linglong looked at him curiously, sizing him up.
Mrs. Xu walked over and personally poured a cup of tea for Miao Yi. She then went around to the opposite side and sat down.
Miao Yi picked up the tea and slowly savored it to hide his guilty conscience. 'Sneaking a peek at Huangfu Jun?' Y glanced at him. In the end, he realized that the other party was staring at him coldly. He suddenly felt that the tea was tasteless. He put down the cup and laughed dryly, "Shopkeeper Huangfu, why are you looking for me?"
'Huangfu Jun?' Y said, "I'm afraid that if I didn't use this method, you would probably hide from me, wouldn't you?"
Miao Yi was surprised. "Why do you say that?"
'Huangfu Jun?' Y said with a faint smile, "As the second owner of the Morality Sundry Goods Store, you must have earned quite a lot recently, right?"
Miao Yi lightly waved his hand. He said humbly, "I'm not even worthy of carrying the shoes of the Hall of Heroes. Shopkeeper is the one who's making a fortune."
'Huangfu Jun?' Y suddenly reached out a hand and waved his jade-like finger, as if he was asking for something from Miao Yi.
"…" Miao Yi was at a loss. 'What does he mean?' He turned to look at the quiet and elegant Xue Linglong. She held the teacup with both hands and glanced at him without saying anything. He then looked at Mother Xu, who smiled without saying anything. Her gaze finally fell on Huangfu Jun. Y stretched out his hand and asked curiously, "Shopkeeper, this is …?"
'Huangfu Jun?' Y: "Where's the jewelry you gave me? Didn't you say you were going to give it to me? Give it to me! "
"This …" Miao Yi stammered for a while, then finally sat up straight and said righteously, "It's already been sold."
'Huangfu Jun?' Y: "You sold the thing you gave me?"
Miao Yi said, "I was going to give it to you. Did you forget? You refused to accept it no matter what. Of course I had to sell it. Am I supposed to keep it and wear it on my head as a man?"
Xue Linglong, who was quietly holding the teacup, smiled when she heard that, revealing her pearly white teeth.
"Who did you sell it to?"
"Hehe, Shopkeeper, you're asking the obvious. I don't believe you didn't know about such a big commotion. I sold it to the Western District Commander, Xiahou Longcheng."
"How dare you use my name to make money!"
"That's not true, is it?"
"What's with ten million Red Crystals?"
"He wanted to buy it, but I refused to sell it. I originally promised Mother Xu that I would give it to you for free, but who knew that guy would throw money at me. He even offered ten million. I'd be an idiot if I didn't sell it. Since you didn't want it, of course I would sell it! How did it become me using your name to sell it for money? "
Miao Yi stood up as he said that, "Shopkeeper Huangfu, you're not being honest enough. Just now, the Deputy Chief Steward of the City Guard Palace came to the store and said something like that. You said that we saw that the jewelry was selling too well, so we intentionally limited the sales and prepared to sell it at a higher price after the discount period. Aren't you trying to scam us?"
'Huangfu Jun?' Y said, "I never said anything like that."
"You …" Miao Yi couldn't do anything to her. He sighed and said, "My store is very busy. If Shopkeeper Huangfu doesn't have any other instructions, I'll leave first. I don't have much luck. I can't afford to drink tea with several beauties."
'Huangfu Jun?' Y said, "I called you here for something. How much did you sell the jewelry to Xiahou Longcheng for? Be honest and take it back. You're not qualified to use me to make money. If you don't do it, I'll make sure that your grocery store can't continue operating!"
Miao Yi was silent. His gaze instantly turned cold as he stared at her coldly. The atmosphere in the room instantly became strange.
'Huangfu Jun?' Y looked straight ahead and stared at the teacup in her hand. She slowly tasted it, and the expression on her face told Miao Yi that she was not joking. He could tell that she wasn't happy either.
It would be strange if she was happy. She somehow became a couple with Xiahou Longcheng, and everyone knew about it. Even those who knew her would tease her about it. Especially Xiahou Longcheng, who would go to her place seven or eight times a day with the jewelry he sold. Just thinking about it made her angry.
Xue Linglong and Mother Xu looked at each other. The two of them looked at Miao Yi from time to time, and then to Huangfu Jun. When Y got serious, the two of them didn't dare to say anything else.
In the end, Miao Yi sighed and said, "Shopkeeper, I won't hide it from you. I don't want to make this money, but Commander Xiahou is forcing me to sell it. If I don't, he'll close down my store. I just told him that I gave you the Stars in the Sky, but you didn't want it. I really wanted to take it back at the original price, but he wouldn't let me. How about this, Shopkeeper Huangfu, I can't afford to offend Commander Xiahou. He threatens me with closing down the store. Please help me talk to him. As long as he agrees, I'll take it back at the original price. How about it? Otherwise, it's useless no matter what I say. Even if you shut down our grocery store, I won't be able to get it back! "
He had already thought about it. As long as he took back the jewelry, he would auction it later. Maybe he could make another profit.
"That's not for me to consider. I'll give you three days. How you get it back is up to you." Y gave him a sideways glance.
They parted on bad terms. Miao Yi quietly went downstairs. The joy of making money was gone. He had recently learned about the Hall of Heroes. It was a giant that he couldn't afford to offend. Mother Xu quickly chased after him and accompanied him downstairs. She said apologetically, "Youde, I'm sorry! I didn't know things would turn out this way. "
Miao Yi waved his hand and smiled. "Mother Xu, it's not your fault. What will come will come. Even if you didn't pull me here, she would have found a way to find me."
Mother Xu said, "Actually, this is mainly because of Xiahou Longcheng. Xiahou Longcheng kept bothering Shopkeeper Huangfu with the jewelry he bought. He looked for her several times a day. She couldn't take it anymore and hid at my place."
Miao Yi asked curiously, "With her background, she shouldn't be afraid of Xiahou Longcheng, right?"
Mother Xu smiled bitterly. "Commander Xiahou's background isn't simple. In order to hide from him, Shopkeeper Huangfu ran everywhere. In short, Xiahou followed wherever he went. Shopkeeper Huangfu hid on countless planets and finally came to Heavenly Origin Planet. In the end, Xiahou was immediately transferred here to be the commander. You can imagine how powerful Commander Xiahou's background is to be able to be transferred so casually."
"That's amazing! What's Commander Xiahou's background? "Miao Yi couldn't help but ask.
Mother Xu shook her head. "I don't know the specifics. I also asked Shopkeeper Huangfu, but he refused to reveal it. Anyway, he must have a powerful background. Otherwise, Shopkeeper Huangfu wouldn't be so helpless against him."
'I didn't expect that Commander Xiahou to have such a background!' Miao Yi muttered to himself. Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Does Mother Xu know Kou Wenlan?"
"Kou Wenlan?" Mother Xu was startled. She immediately nodded and said, "The commander of the Eastern District. He is Xiahou Longcheng's sworn enemy. Like Xiahou, he is also Shopkeeper Huangfu's hardcore pursuer. He also follows Shopkeeper Huangfu around. Xiahou Longcheng was transferred here to be the commander of the Western District, and Kou Wenlan was transferred here to be the commander of the Eastern District. To be able to do this, their backgrounds are probably similar."
