When Su Rui came up, he made it clear what happened below in a few words, a guy in the store accidentally distorted a dish in his hand, and it happened to be all buckled on a plainclothes Wei warrior who was accompanying the protection of the royal family. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info yes, it's not Wei Wushu who came out today, but the real warrior of Wei, to be precise, he is in the rank of a scholar, so his temper is naturally very big, and with the combination of fists and feet, that guy can only beg for mercy. Several of the samurai's comrades soon joined in the beating, and the rest of the men in Chengyi Restaurant couldn't persuade them, so they had to invite the shopkeeper to come, but at this time, the female shopkeeper was not on the first floor, and she wouldn't show up if she wanted to come to a little girl's house, but it was the shopkeeper and several other young people who were persuading each other, and it seemed that the samurai had been stopped. What a big thing, but thinking of what Ning Yue said about the man wearing a weapon outside the private room, he flashed by, and thought of "safety first", so the group opened the store to see the lively crowd and walked straight out. And those Wei warriors who were still making trouble, after seeing this side leaving, naturally put down the beating in their hands, shouted a few words of good luck, and quietly followed behind. However, when they saw Gongsun He's stern eyes, the group of arrogant warriors finally bowed their heads. Gongsun or their head, not only has a noble status and is close to the Marquis of Wei, but what is more convincing is that he also has better skills. Walking out of the store, it was the warm afternoon sun, looking back, the shopkeeper's excitement had calmed down, presumably for this era of great contention, this little riot would not have had a slight impact on Xinglong's business. With the figure of the petite girl still in his heart, Zhou Bian and his party had no interest in continuing to wander around, chatted all the way, and soon returned to the Wei Palace, and returned to the side palace that temporarily belonged to the royal family. .............................. "Tell me, what will be the identity of that Chengyi Restaurant, or rather, that girl?" "Only in the main hall of this remote palace will the royal family sit together and talk about business. Of course, what he saw today was definitely worth taking seriously in Zhou Bian's opinion, so after taking a short rest after coming back, he gathered several courtiers together. Ning Yue and a few people, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end, Wang Sunman opened his mouth first, "It's just a businessman's family, even if Chengyi Restaurant is all over the world, so what?" The business of the hotel is only a small head in my royal family's industry, and soju, refined salt, and ironware are huge profits, even if it is a four-wheeled carriage, the current income is not much less than that of the hotel, why should the king care so much? "Could it be that the king really wants to marry the female shopkeeper?" Fan Yu suddenly asked, Zhou Bian's royal majesty is not very strict, so people close to him will also make some innocuous jokes. But looking at Fan Yu's seriousness, it is obvious that in his heart, this is not a joke. Although Fan Yu is also a nobleman with a very high status, he grew up in the poor Chengzhou, and Fan Yu's class concept is obviously not very strong. Zhou Bian smiled helplessly, "Where is this, this king is only twelve years old, it's too early to think about this now." "It's not early, there are still two years to think about it." Ning Yue said solemnly. "Even you make fun of this king. Okay, don't talk about this, just talk about the question raised by this king, what do you think of this woman's identity? Zhou Bian rolled his eyes at Ning Yue and said. Well, in fact, His Majesty also thinks it's time to talk about it. Your Majesty thinks that there are the following three points, one is that this Chengyi Restaurant will seize the business of our hotel, the second is the samurai waiting outside the door when the female shopkeeper talks to us, and the third is the conversation of the female shopkeeper herself, including her strange words that the king can have more contact with her, which point does the king think is most concerned about? "Obviously, Ning Yue has also thought about it." This king cares. First, the new way of stir-frying, this king thinks that it is not so easy to invent, this is not because of this king's arrogance, but it should be so. Of course, Zhou Bian can't explain that stir-fried vegetables only appeared in the Song Dynasty in real history, "Then there are only two possibilities, one is that the people who invented stir-fry on their side are also amazing, then we have to pay attention to it, this king will regard him as an opponent, and the other is that they copied ours," After a pause, Zhou Bian looked around, and saw that Ning Yue and the other four were listening carefully, so he continued, "Then the situation is also very serious, first of all, there are their traitors in our palace, and they are very deep, second, This king probably made a stir-fry in the palace in winter, and they sold it in Linzi after the beginning of spring, how long does it take to get from Luoyang to Linzi at the earliest? "If you are in a desperate hurry, it will take about thirty days." Wang Sunman replied. "If this is the case, then the point is, who are they, my royal family will be in trouble, how can they arrange for a mole? And the arranged traitor is very discerning, and will think of stealing the recipe for stir-frying, so what other news did they reveal? After revealing the recipe for stir-frying, they only have one month to experiment and decide to launch it, just one month, efficiency, vision and determination are indispensable, which is by no means something that ordinary businessmen can do. "So, this first point, this king is very concerned." Ning Yue nodded, "The king has a unique vision, so I have to arrange for someone to go to Linzi to confirm whether Linzi Chengyi Restaurant launched stir-fry two years ago." When Fan Yu Wang Sunman and the others heard this, they also realized the seriousness of the problem, and after changing their faces and looking at each other, Wang Sunman said, "Please continue to speak." "Okay, then second, when the female shopkeeper was talking to us, there were samurai wearing weapons waiting outside the door, although this king didn't see it, but Ning Qing suggested that we leave immediately, needless to say, this king can also know that it is by no means the guard that the merchant family should have, but a real samurai who can pose a threat to us, Ning Aiqing, isn't that so?" "Exactly, the king is wise. They have a faint murderous aura on their bodies, they should have seen blood. Ning Yue arched his hand. This king believes that Ning Aiqing will not be mistaken. Then, judging from the invention of stir-frying alone, it can only be considered a merchant, but judging from the fact that it is equipped with such a samurai, even if it is a merchant, it is also a big family. "Big households, some big families in this era can already influence the overall situation of the world." Zhou Bian sighed. Although they don't understand the words "this era" that the king said, they still think about the impact that super big families can cause. "Therefore, this king is very concerned about the identity of that little girl." "And then thirdly, her conversation represents that she is well-educated, in this era, this king feels that if it is not a noble family, even if it is a big family and a big family that has risen for no more than three generations, it will not be able to teach such a little girl, and she is still a woman! Can it be done without foundation? Therefore, judging from the third point that Ning Qing said, she should be the queen of the nobles. Zhou Bian squinted at Ning Yue, who hurriedly agreed. Then, the strange words about her, it may even be that the king is encouraging the king to take the initiative to marry her, it is very puzzling, if it is not for this sentence, even if she is a nobleman, even if she is rich in the world, even if she can influence the princes of a country, this king will not value it so much, the key is in this sentence. "Tell me, in this sentence, is she friend or foe?" Zhou Bian waved his hand and frowned. If the little girl could know what the royal family was talking about, her words would cause the other party to think about it so much, but she didn't know what the initiator would think. However, at this time, the king's questions were raised, but Ning Yue and the others were silent, obviously thinking. "Therefore, along the way, in front of the Wei people, this king did not raise so many questions, this is precisely because this king cares very much in his heart!" After another moment of silence, Ning Yue raised his head, "Your Majesty thinks that at least after the nobles, and maybe even after the princes of any country, and, with a great possibility, they recognize the king and want to have a relationship with my royal family." "Go on." "No! If they hadn't recognized the king, they wouldn't have expelled a teenage girl out, and for a while the little girl stayed alone in the private room to face us, even if the little girl was really the shopkeeper, they could have said that the shopkeeper was not there, and now the big businessman Jia family has a lot of shopkeepers who are fully responsible, so everything is handled by the shopkeeper, and there is nothing wrong with it, there is no need for the little girl shopkeeper to run out in person, after all, it's just a little girl. "Therefore, they must have recognized us as royalty, so they believe that we will not be against them." Then, they just want to climb the relationship, perhaps, they know that my royal family's industry is expanding rapidly, or maybe they think that my royal family is friendly with Wei and thus its influence has increased, well, they don't directly contact Qiang Wei, either they are afraid of being annexed, or they can't contact at all, after all, my royal family is poor, and it will still be more profitable to send charcoal in the snow, or perhaps, they simply saw that my royal family will be prosperous, so in order to seek development, they even sent the girl over. Speaking of this, Ning Yue stopped, obviously this was to give time for everyone to think. It makes sense, according to this, they must know the identity of my royal family, which shows that their power cannot be underestimated, and they know the appearance and even whereabouts of the king very well, and even, they have been paying attention to my royal family. Wang Sunman said what he thought in his heart. Fortunately, at present, it seems that they want to be close to us, at least not enemies, otherwise, we will be greeted by an ambush like the one who came out of Taihang not long ago, or simply the assassination on the street shortly after my royal family returned to Luoyang. Ning Yue smiled slightly. But there is nothing to be done, and it is either a traitor or a thief. They will come with something in demand or in a purpose. Zhou Bian said. Well, that's a good saying. Ning Yue slapped his face, "Your Majesty thinks that what they want is to develop together with my royal family and gather financial, human and material resources to accomplish their true goals." Therefore, their true identity should be after the aristocracy, either the declining nobles, or the princes of small countries, if it is a pure merchant family, first, there is no such strong background to cultivate such a female shopkeeper, and second, the pure merchant family is also unwilling to have too much relationship with the princes, let alone the Son of Heaven? They just want to do their own business. "So, it must be after the nobles." Ning Yue said affirmatively. "Okay, then let's continue to analyze, which country is after the nobles." Zhou Bian waved his hand. "Song Wei and the two countries, after being merchants, have been weak for many years, and have a tradition of doing business, Zhongshan State, once destroyed by the Wei State, only a few years after the restoration of the country, it is the time when support is urgently needed, if the princes are personally in charge, they can't escape from these three countries. As for the declining aristocracy, perhaps the ancestors were forced by the prince and had a blood feud, or perhaps the ancestors were persecuted and lost their heirs, it is not easy to guess. "It's too broad." Wang Sunman also shook his head, "But it shouldn't be after the decline of the aristocracy, because if Chengyi Restaurant is really a lot of vassal states, and this little girl is in charge, then you can think about how much property this little girl's father should have, if he has such a big industry, it is enough to affect the princes of a country, and if there is a blood feud, it should be able to be avenged, no matter how bad it is, there is no need to entrust it to my Luoyang royal family who is still in poverty, so it should not be after the decline of the aristocracy, but it should be the spirit of the king of a country, can make a move to make friends with my royal family, whether it is for him to borrow strength or even support my royal family, it is a great courage to send his daughter here. "So the ministers thought about it, maybe the Qin State and the Yue State are more likely, because one of these two countries was persecuted by the Wei State, and the other was attacked by the Chu State, and they are both on the verge of dying, if you think about it this way, it is more likely that these two countries want to use the power of our royal family." Hearing this, Fan Yu suddenly laughed, "Haha, listening to you say this, when it comes to going out to do business, it is ridiculous that she is the daughter of a dignified princely state." "Be careful!" Ning Yue scolded sharply, "What's so ridiculous about this, I'm a dignified son of heaven, don't I also do business?" As soon as he heard this, Fan Yu suddenly felt like being poured down by a bucket of cold water in winter, and he hurriedly climbed up two steps in a panic and fell to his knees, "King, the kid is guilty, and the kid should be punished." "Well, this king doesn't blame you. Indeed, it is also helpless to do this, and it is not a very glorious thing. Alright, get up. "Zhou Bian doesn't care much about this kind of momentary slip of the tongue." Well, move on. "Your Majesty thought it wouldn't be Yue Guo." Ning Yue said. "Why?" "The country of Yue has not yet been fully civilized, under the poor mountains and bad waters, where can such a girl be raised?" Ning Yue said solemnly. "Hehe, I don't dare to agree, that Xi Shi is a more beautiful woman, they all say that Wu women are colorful, and more women are amorous, I think that this girl must be a more beautiful girl, haha!" Wang Sunman laughed. "Huh!" Su Rui, who has been following the royal family, also laughed, although he has not yet participated in the discussion of the royal family, it can be seen that Su Rui has gradually integrated into this collective. "The more affectionate the girl, what does the king think?" Wang Sunman smiled and threw the question to Zhou Bian. Zhou Bian smiled and shook his head, his subordinates made some harmless jokes, and he was also very happy. "However, this king believes that Qin and Chu are the most likely." "Why?" "Because of the tea." Zhou Bian paused, and seeing that none of the four people reacted, he continued. "This king heard Bai Xiang say that tea is produced in the land of Bashu, and people like Bai Xiang should also treat it as a treasure, but they are sold in large quantities here. Well, although it is a little expensive, the amount sold is still quite large compared to the point that Bai Xiang treasures, so she must have enough strength to get a large amount of tea. "And the people who are close to Bashu, only Qin and Chu, except for the people of these two countries, who can have such the ability to trade with Bashu?" "Although it is also possible that it has changed hands, there should not be a large number of things sold elsewhere, and how can all the huge profits be resold to others? Therefore, this king thinks that this Chengyi restaurant is the most likely to trade directly with Bashu. "Smack, smack, smack. Ning Yue applauded, "The king's perspective on the problem is unique, which makes his subordinates admire." "Do you have any other speculations about the identity of this female shopkeeper?" "It's gone." Several people shook their heads. "Well, no matter what, my royal family is not afraid of them, maybe they really want to form an alliance, but my royal family doesn't need to get too close to them. In fact, no matter how much you guess, it's just a direction, and you still can't be sure. Check it out first, let Fan Yu notify the people in the dark group, send someone to pay attention to Chengyi Restaurant, and find out the identity behind him, the source of the goods, and the purpose of the merchant. "No!" Fan Yu replied. This secret group is an intelligence agency set up according to Zhou Bian's ideas, first under the management of Ning Yue, and now Ning Yue is inconvenient, so it is handed over to a prince in Luoyang who originally followed Ning Yue to do things, but the territory outside Luoyang is in charge of Liu Qiu. Limited by economic strength and lack of personnel, the development of the dark group is very slow, and at present, it can only take care of Xinzheng and Anyi, but only twenty people serve the dark group, so this is the first time to serve the intelligence that the royal family wants at the top of the family, but I don't know how efficient it is. However, since it has been established, it will always start to play a role, Zhou Bian thought.

"Then let's all disperse now." Zhou Bian waved his hand and ended this brief discussion.
