Chapter 33: The Secret of the Shadow Pavilion

Ten days later.

A gorgeous carriage drove into Huancheng County and was heading in the direction of Huancheng.

Huancheng County is the second largest county in the territory of the Shengxing Dynasty after Tianjing County, Gyeonggi County, where the capital is located, and the "Huancheng" is the second largest city after the capital.

Upon entering the city, it was no surprise that the carriage stopped in front of one of the most luxurious restaurants on the busiest street.

There was a circle of people around the restaurant, noisy, Chi Xiaoman saw it in the carriage, those people were gambling, and they were gambling on eggs, only then did I think that it seemed to be the Dragon Boat Festival today, but I didn't expect that it had been two months since she came to this era.

"Great! It's finally here!" she cheered as soon as the carriage stopped, and jumped out of the carriage in a hurry. In order to arrive in Huancheng as soon as possible, she has been in a hurry for the past few days, but she has been suffocated.

She is not really in a hurry, she has more time, if she just goes to Huancheng to do business, now that she has the backer of King Huai'an, she is not in a hurry to make money. But she wanted to settle down in Huancheng as soon as possible, because only after settling down could she contact the prince's brother, Imperial Physician Liu, and Master Yuan Zhi. And she also wants to ask the prince's brother to send Xiaolian out of the palace too!

"Are you so anxious to do business?" Wei Chimu was quite unimpressed by her eagerness, he always thought that her desire to do business was just a temporary hot for a new thing, and when the freshness passed, she would feel troublesome and leave it alone.

Besides, he doesn't know how long he can still be in the Shengxing Dynasty, his father will not let him stay in other countries for too long, and I am afraid that it will not be long before he will be recalled to Yasukuni. At that time, he will definitely bring Xiaoman back with him, so he doesn't support her doing business here at all.

If you really want to do business, you will wait until you take her back to Yasukuni, and it is best that she can obediently and obediently go back to the Huai'an fiefdom with him, and then he can let her mess around as much as she likes.

Anyway, he's the biggest in Huai'an!

Ji Minzhi asked the shopkeeper for four upper rooms, and then asked for a private room.

On the first day of staying with them, he only needed two upper rooms, and asked for a worse room for himself and Wu Tingzhong, which made Chi Xiaoman scold, but because the pavilion master was on the side, he had nowhere to go, and his whole face turned red.

He felt that there should be a distinction between primary and secondary no matter what, but even the pavilion master was standing on Miss Chi's side, and he couldn't help it, so why not live if he had a good place, so he had to angrily ask the shopkeeper for four more upper rooms. After that, along the way, it was natural that the master lived in the same place, and he and Wu Tingzhong lived the same, and they ate the same food.

But he didn't thank Chi Xiaoman for this, but felt that she was very hateful, she was simply a luxury woman who was greedy for vanity and was accustomed to enjoyment, and she was not worthy of the pavilion master at all, and even her servants had to spend the pavilion master's money to eat and live well, which really made him so angry that he went crazy!

"I also have people under my hands now, how can I raise people if I don't do business? I said, you can't be wrong to invest in me to do business, how much can you be a prince? Huai'an's local tax revenue is not much, right? You still have to raise a whole Shadow Pavilion!" The last sentence she said was very quiet, not only because Xiao Twelve was behind and didn't want him to hear it, but also because she knew that the Shadow Pavilion was a secret store, and she couldn't let outsiders know that there was a relationship between the Shadow Pavilion and Chi Mu.

Speaking of Xiao Twelve, Ji Minzhi didn't even say a word to her in the past ten days, he only reported something to Yu Chimu every day, as if other people from the Shadow Pavilion would pass the news to him, and then he would tell Yu Chimu, and then he rode a horse and followed behind their carriage.

The road did play a small role, because their carriage was too eye-catching, attracting the covetousness of a few small thieves, and without Wei Chimu going out of the horse, they all let Ji Minzhi brush and brush, and as soon as the sword was unsheathed, it was done in one move. But of course they didn't kill anyone, they just injured their arms and legs, and taught them a lesson.

To be honest, there is only one move every time, and she can't see how good his swordsmanship is, but the posture in which he draws his sword is quite handsome, and it's a pity that such a handsome little guy always has a cold face, so how can any girl like him?

"You mean Wu Tingzhong?" Wei Chimu said: "You don't have to use your silver, it's nothing to me to use him alone, and I don't need to worry about the affairs of the Shadow Pavilion, although they are doing things for me, but the Shadow Pavilion has its own way of making money." ”

The Shadow Pavilion is also rarely known on the rivers and lakes, but Du Qingyang, the left envoy of the Shadow Pavilion, is famous in the rivers and lakes. He is the castle master of the Earthquake Castle, and has the title of the Nine Rings Golden Knife, and his big sword makes him superb. With him joining in the Shadow Pavilion, it is equivalent to the entire people of Heaven-Shaking Castle being used by Wei Chimu.

Of course, on the surface, no one knew about the relationship between Earthquake Castle and Shadow Pavilion, and no one even knew that Du Qingyang was not only the Lord of Earthquake Castle, but also the Shadow Pavilion's left envoy.

The Shadow Pavilion is a mysterious existence for anyone.

Earthquake Fort originally had a lot of industries, but Du Qingyang was so obsessed with martial arts that he almost let the people below hollow out the industry. If it weren't for the King of Huai'an, I'm afraid that Earthquake Fort would disappear from the rivers and lakes, which is also the reason why Du Qingyang followed Yu Chimu with all his heart.

Therefore, it can be said that the entire industry of Earthquake Castle belongs to Earthquake Castle on the surface, but in fact it belongs to the Shadow Pavilion, and it is also Wei Chimu's.

"No, you think that there will only be one of my people, Xiao Zhong? Since you want to do business here, of course you have to recruit some people, you can't all use your people to do things, right? I'm afraid they don't want to. "The people of the Shadow Pavilion are here to sell refreshments, they are afraid that they will kill her, and the first person who wants to kill her must be Ji Minzhi.

"If you really want to do business here, my partner naturally can't suffer a loss, if you want to do business, you have to be decent, the small family is not in line with my identity as the king of Huai'an, how to say that you should open a restaurant as luxurious and magnificent as this "Tianxiang Building", right?"

Chi Xiaoman said: "That's natural, but I don't open a restaurant, I open a teahouse." "The restaurant is full of alcohol, and there will be people who are drunk and making trouble, so she won't do it!

"Follow you, but I have to say it in front, since it is a partnership, the funds should be half of one person, right?" Seeing that Chi Xiaoman hesitated a little, but still nodded, he continued: "As far as I know, to open a teahouse, and a building the size of Tianxianglou, there are not seven or eight thousand taels, I'm afraid it won't work, besides, it's useless to just buy a building, decoration, hiring people, ingredients, tea, everything needs funds, this is not ten thousand taels of silver, do you want to start a business, do you have five thousand taels of silver?"

"You did it on purpose!" Chi Xiaoman looked at him angrily and said, "You borrow me first, and you pay back the money you earn." ”

"That's not possible, it's hard to talk about doing business, I don't want to lose all my money. Yu Chimu shrugged his shoulders and said.

Chi Xiaoman gritted her teeth, she knew that he didn't really support her business at all, but she would never admit defeat, five thousand taels, right? Don't think she can't help it!

Isn't there an opportunity for her to make money outside Tianxiang Building?
