Chapter 47, Tianyun Chamber of Commerce
Walking on the bustling street, Zhuge Qingming looked at Ji Fengtian with the eyes of a monster and asked, "Little Tianzi, when did you learn the guqin, why don't I know?"
"Brother is gifted and intelligent, and he will do whatever he sees. Ji Fengtian said narcissistically.
"Cut, is it okay to have a face?" Zhuge Qingming said: "However, that Fang Commander probably regrets it now." โ
"Maybe, but we're out for fun today, so don't trouble me again, or I'll leave you to go around on your own." Ji Fengtian admonished Zhuge Qingming and said.
"How about I invite you to dinner today?" said Zhuge Qingming.
"What do you invite me to eat?" Ji Fengtian also asked very curiously.
"Let's go to Zuixiang Building, brother treats guests, eats as much as you like, and is full. Zhuge Qingming said.
"Great, someone is in charge of the meal, then thank you Brother Qingming. Just as Zhuge Qingming was speaking, a man's voice came from behind him, it was Dongfang Saitama.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm talking about the little Son of Heaven, why are you here?" Zhuge Qingming rolled his eyes when he saw Dongfang Saiyu and Dongfang Yue.
"I just heard someone say that they have a treat, so let's see if I can eat it, but I can't open the pot lately. Dongfang Saitama said.
"Are you kidding, the two of us together don't have as much money as you, if you can't open the pot, won't we have poor pants?" Zhuge Qingming said in disbelief, to know who Dongfang Saiyu is? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, he said that if there is no money, there is no money? If anyone believes Dongfang Saitama's words, then the sow can go up the tree.
"Hehe, what I said is true, if you don't believe me, you can ask my sister. Dongfang Saitama pointed at Dongfang Yue and said.
"Yes, I can testify for my brother!" Dongfang Yue said with a blushing face.
"How is it possible? Could it be that you have been robbed?" asked Zhuge Qingming, puzzled.
"Well, that's not true. Dongfang Saitama said.
"I'm surprised by this, how could I suddenly be impoverished?" Zhuge Qingming also looked at Dongfang Saiyu curiously.
"You'll find out when you get to the intermediate level. Dongfang Saitama smiled bitterly.
"Qingming, let's invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to a meal!" Ji Fengtian stabbed Zhuge Qingming and said.
As if he knew what Ji Fengtian was thinking, Zhuge Qingming did not object again, and the group of four walked towards Zuixiang Building.
"It turned out to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please go upstairs to the private room. The guy from Zuixianglou saw the arrival of several people and stepped forward to greet him.
The four of them came to the private room on the third floor of the Zuixiang Building and sat down, and the guy asked, "His Royal Highness the Prince, what do you need?"
"Brother Qingming?" Dongfang Saiyu looked at Zhuge Qingming.
Zhuge Qingming was just about to speak, when Ji Fengtian asked, "What are your characteristics here?"
When the guy saw Ji Fengtian stealing the words, he was curious about Ji Fengtian's identity, but the guy from a big restaurant like Zuixianglou had undergone strict training, and he didn't dare to reply without the slightest hesitation: "We have demon beast meat here, all of which we have recently captured." โ
"Well, let's not look at it, you can have a special dish here. Ji Fengtian said.
"Okay, wait a minute, we'll give it up. The man said yes and left the private room.
Just after the guy left, Ji Fengtian felt a murderous gaze staring at him, and when he turned around, he saw Zhuge Qingming staring at him through gritted teeth.
"Huh, Qingming, why is your face blue and red?" Ji Fengtian reached out to touch Zhuge Qingming's face, but was blocked by Zhuge Qingming.
"Little Tianzi, do we have an enmity?" said Zhuge Qingming who wanted to cry without tears.
"No, what's wrong?" Ji Fengtian said.
"Then you're not afraid of getting fat after eating so much?"
"It's okay, we can pack it if we can't finish eating, don't forget that Dark Moon is still at home. โ
"You, you, you..." Zhuge Qingming felt that his lungs were about to explode.
"Oh, didn't I give you a bunch last time?" Ji Fengtian looked at Zhuge Qingming in confusion.
"Don't tell me about that. Hearing Ji Fengtian's words, Zhuge Qingming was even more angry.
"Lost?" Ji Fengtian asked tentatively.
"Nope. Zhuge Qingming said angrily.
"It was taken back by your son?"
โยทยทยทโ
"You're talking. Dongfang Saiyu asked when he saw that Zhuge Qingming was silent.
Zhuge Qingming still didn't say a word, Dongfang Saiyu looked at Ji Fengtian with a puzzled face, and found that Ji Fengtian had an expression that I knew, and her sister, sister, ignored it directly, she kept looking at Ji Fengtian, and didn't pay attention to what Zhuge Qingming said.
Dongfang Saiyu saw Dongfang Yue's expression, and sighed in her heart, her sister's intelligence and intelligence far surpassed that of her father's other heirs, thanks to her being her own sister, otherwise, she would not know what happened to her now, but such a smart sister, when she saw Ji Fengtian, her head was dull, thinking of this, Dongfang Saiyu's heart was also extremely depressed.
Just when everyone was silent, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and the man from before said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, your dish is here!"
"Come in. โ
Then, the guy opened the door, and one by one the maids put it up with exquisite food, and Ji Fengtian, who was watching, moved his index finger.
"Man, here's a good pot of tea. Ji Fengtian ignored others, picked up a piece of demon beast meat with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, and said vaguely while eating.
"And a jug of wine. Dongfang Saitama followed behind and said.
"Okay, come up right away. The man turned and went down.
"Qingming, why don't you eat it?" Ji Fengtian beckoned Zhuge Qingming to eat while sending food to his mouth.
"Ah, eat, Your Royal Highness the princess, you're welcome. Zhuge Qingming hurriedly greeted.
"Thank you, Brother Qingming. Dongfang Yue thanked her, picked up chopsticks, picked up a peanut and put it in her mouth, and chewed it carefully.
"Hey, why don't you greet me, I'm also the prince. Dongfang Saitama said as he ate.
Hearing Dongfang Saitama's words, Zhuge Qingming rolled his eyes and was too lazy to take care of it. I spent so much money, I have to eat it quickly, and I will suffer a loss. Zhuge Qingming didn't think much about it, threw off his arms and ate.
"Your tea and wine are here. "The guy pushed the door in, put his things down and left.
Ji Fengtian, Zhuge Qingming, Dongfang Saiyu didn't pay attention to his image at all, and ate the food on the table cleanly, of course, Dongfang Saiyu didn't forget to give Dongfang Yue a dish when he ate, otherwise, Dongfang Yu wouldn't be able to eat anything.
After they were full, the three of them threw their chopsticks on the table and leaned back on the chair, Ji Fengtian touched his stomach and said, "Why didn't we think so much at that time?"
"It's just that I was so smart at the time, I never thought of it. Zhuge Qingming said.
"But it tastes good. Ji Fengtian exclaimed.
"What are you two playing dumb riddles?" Dongfang Saitama really couldn't stand these two guys anymore and asked.
"It's nothing, I just miss the barbecue made by Xiao Tianzi. Zhuge Qingming said.
"What, Brother Fengtian can still cook barbecue?" asked Dongfang Saitama in disbelief.
"What's strange about this, next time you bring something, let Xiao Tianzi make it for you to eat. Zhuge Qingming said with a toothpick.
"Then I'll have to try it. Dongfang Saitama said.
"Didn't I say, why don't you have any money? Could it be that Your Majesty still deducts your living expenses?" asked Zhuge Qingming.
"Not really. Dongfang Saitama shook his head and said.
"How much do you live on?"
"One hundred thousand taels a month. Dongfang Saitama said.
"One hundred thousand taels?" Zhuge Qingming said.
"Yes, 100,000 taels. โ
"You can spend 100,000 taels a month, how do you spend it?"
Ji Fengtian was also very curious at this time, waiting for Dongfang Saitama's words.
"The two of you will also enter the Intermediate Academy in the next year, so let's talk about it for you now. Dongfang Saitama said after taking a sip of water.
"The competition in the Intermediate Academy is very fierce, even for me, because my father's son is not the only one, and there are many who covet the throne, when I was in the Junior Academy, I had some subordinates, but when I arrived at the Ultimate Academy, several of my imperial brothers began to compete for my subordinates, and they wanted to deal with me everywhere. Dongfang Saitama said with a wry smile.
"The Intermediate Academy is also divided into gangs, when we first arrived at the Intermediate Academy, the subordinates around us were all divided up by them, I am now equivalent to a light commander, in order not to be humiliated by them, I can only try my best to speed up my cultivation. Cultivation requires resources, and my father will not give us so much support, so I can only use the money in my hands to buy medicinal materials, and most of the medicinal materials are controlled by a few imperial brothers, and the price of medicinal materials they monopolize, unless I defect to them, there is no way to survive. The more Dongfang Saitama spoke, the lower his voice became.
"Does the academy care?" asked Zhuge Qingming.
"The academy doesn't care, the dean said that this is a way of cultivation, let us solve it ourselves. Unless you use strong force to knock them down, you can only be oppressed. If the two of you don't take sides, you're likely to be suppressed. โ
"We can't compare with other princes, after all, beating the prince is a felony. Zhuge Qingming said.
"In the academy, if you injure the prince, you will not be punished in any way, provided that you are defeated openly. โ
"Oh? That's easy to say. โ
"His Royal Highness the Prince, what are you cultivating now?" Ji Fengtian suddenly asked.
"I'm only the fourth layer of martial artists now. Dongfang Saitama said.
"How long did it take you to enter cultivation at that time?"
"It took about twenty days. Dongfang Saitama said.
Ji Fengtian frowned, feeling that something seemed to be beyond his expectations, why did the time to enter cultivation be shortened so much now.
Seeing Ji Fengtian's expression, Dongfang Saiyu asked puzzledly, "When did you enter the cultivation?"
"We used it for many days, not only us, Liu Daoxing, Topaz, they were. Ji Fengtian said.
"In this way, does the sky want to prosper my Dayue Dynasty?" said Zhuge Qingming.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, don't you think it's strange?" Ji Fengtian decided to tell the story.
"What's strange?" Dongfang Saitama was puzzled.
"Brother Huang, I think what Brother Fengtian said should be that this matter is abnormal, I accidentally saw a book in the library of the academy, which recorded the deeds of famous people in the Dayue Dynasty. Speaking of this, Dongfang Yu secretly glanced at Ji Fengtian, of course she didn't see it by accident, she was following Ji Fengtian, and when she saw what Ji Fengtian was looking at, she opened it curiously to take a look, because she felt that this would make her closer to Ji Fengtian.
When he saw Ji Fengtian's gaze, Dongfang Saitama's face couldn't help but turn red, and he shrank back and said, "The sages of the Great Yue Dynasty in the past dynasties, the most demonic qualifications all took nearly twenty days to enter cultivation. โ
Dongfang Saiyu said suspiciously: "This is normal, it means that we are all demonic enough." โ
"No, Brother Huang, if you want to have such demonic qualifications as your predecessors, you can only meet them once in fifty years, but now there are so many at one time. Speaking of this, Dongfang Yue paused, looked at Ji Fengtian and said: "What's more, Emperor Tian entered cultivation in just one day's effort, and he directly entered the second layer of martial arts, this kind of qualification can't be said to be demonic, for us, for the Dayue Dynasty, this is already against the sky, and even broke the convention." โ
At this time, Ji Fengtian set his eyes on Dongfang Yue, Dongfang Yue's wisdom made him feel very shocked, a five-year-old child can have this kind of wisdom, which is a bit beyond the norm. At this moment, Ji Fengtian began to face up to the princess of the Dayue Dynasty, who had always been regarded as a little child.
Dongfang Saitama was also very shocked at this time, and seemed to feel a little abnormal, but she still didn't want to admit it in her heart.
"Maybe it's a coincidence?" said Saitama.
"Maybe. Ji Fengtian didn't want to delve into this issue, and asked, "Qingming and I want to go shopping next, where are you going?"
"Let's go shopping with you, it's okay to go back anyway. Dongfang Saitama said.
"I'm with my royal brother. โ
"Alright, let's go. Ji Fengtian said.
After the four of them went downstairs, they saw Zhuge Qingming leave the counter with a painful expression, which made Dongfang Yue laugh for a while.
Ji Fengtian rolled his eyes, didn't look at Zhuge Qingming's resentful expression and asked, "His Royal Highness the Prince, is there any place to go?"
"I heard that the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce is holding an auction today, maybe there are things you need, do you want to check them out?" asked Dongfang Saitama.
"Let's go, we need to buy something too. Ji Fengtian said.
So a group of four people walked towards the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce, and when they arrived at the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce, there were two long queues outside, and the sound was very noisy.
"There are so many people, when will this have to wait!" Zhuge Qingming said.
"Hehe, Brother Qingming, haven't you and Brother Fengtian been here?" asked Dongfang Saitama.
"Uh... How do you know?" asked Zhuge Qingming with a curious look at the baby.
"Because the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce has a member channel for us, we can enter without queuing. Dongfang Saitama explained.
"I see, let's go. Zhuge Qingming hurriedly walked to the side.
After the four of them left, there were discussions in the crowd in line: "Look, I don't know where the four stupid boys came from, they want to go in without queuing, and they are pretending to be nobles." โ
"Shall we take a gamble?"
"Bet on what?"
"Of course, when they were thrown out. โ
"Okay, what's the stake?"
"The stakes are ... โ
Just when someone was about to gamble on this, everyone was caught off guard by a scene, and they saw a steward of the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce bowing to the four of them and helping to lead the way.
The mouths of the people were closed, and they did not say more.
The four of them entered the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce smoothly, and after entering the Chamber of Commerce, Ji Fengtian saw a hall with stepped seats.
"Where are we sitting?" asked Ji Fengtian.
"Uh... Brother Fengtian, our royal family, your Ji family and the Zhuge family all have their own private rooms on the second floor. Dongfang Saiyu helplessly pointed to the room above and said.
โยทยทยทโ The steward who led the way in front heard Ji Fengtian's words at first, thinking that he didn't know where the soil buns came from, but when Dongfang Saiyu finished speaking, the steward felt that his back was instantly soaked, and he almost lost his eyes, blaming himself, can he be an ordinary person who can walk with His Royal Highness the Prince. You have to be careful in the future, otherwise your own steward will come to an end, and if you don't do it well, you will lose your life.
"Let's go to the Ji family's room today, I want to go in and have a look. Ji Fengtian said.
The steward led the four of them to the private room on the second floor, stopped at the door of the room on the right in the middle, opened the door, called a maid to serve in the house, and went down to prepare for the auction.
Ji Fengtian stood at the door of the private room and looked inside, a spacious room with tables and chairs, and a transparent floor-to-ceiling window in front of it, so that he could clearly see the items on the auction table.
After the four of them were seated, the maid brought some fruit and snacks, and several people chatted in the room, waiting for the auction to begin.
The stepped seats downstairs were filled by people coming in one after another, and after waiting for another half an hour, the door of the auction slowly closed, and the steward who had led the way before walked up to the auction table, picked up the small hammer on the table and knocked it, and the noisy scene below instantly quieted down.
"I am very glad that you can participate in the auction held by my Tianyun Chamber of Commerce, please make a civilized offer. I won't say anything superfluous, but now I'll invite us to the first lot. โ
Just as the steward was finishing, a maid came in with a tray covered with a red cloth, so that it was impossible to see what was inside.
The maid placed the tray on the table of the auction table, and the steward uncovered the red cloth covering the tray, and three small porcelain vases on the tray suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
The crowd looked at the steward in confusion, waiting for the steward's explanation. The steward didn't let everyone wait for a long time, and said: "This is a blood clotting cream, no matter how much damage is on the outside, it can instantly stop bleeding, accelerate wound healing, and have a pain-relieving effect, which is ten times more effective than the hemostatic powder on the market." Three bottles are sold together for one hundred and fifty taels, and each increase must not be less than one tael. โ
"One hundred and sixty taels. Just as the steward's words fell, a voice rang out.
"One hundred and seventy taels. โ
"Two hundred taels. โ
"This hemostatic cream is too expensive. Ji Fengtian looked at Dongfang Saitama puzzled.
