"You're not really worried about her problem?" Duan Ran saw that the ink painting was far away, so he looked at Cheng Shuiyao and spoke curiously.

Cheng Shuiyao is very smart, and he would never have thought of this.

"If she is a spy, then naturally she can't escape Xiao Ji's investigation," Cheng Shuiyao shrugged her shoulders indifferently, "Besides, a spy in front of her can also make people feel at ease." ”

"Absolutely!" Duan Ran didn't expect that she had already thought about this, and immediately gave her a thumbs up.

Cheng Shuiyao just smiled, didn't speak again, and pulled Duan Ran into his room.

"Madam," Mo Qi suddenly pushed the door in and handed Cheng Shuiyao a booklet.

Cheng Shuiyao glanced down at the cover of the booklet, and then quietly tucked the booklet into his sleeve and beckoned Mo Qi to leave.

When Duan Ran saw her look, she knew that she shouldn't ask about these things, so she didn't mean to explore at all, and after chatting with Cheng Shuiyao for a few more words, she found an excuse to slip away.

Cheng Shuiyao waited for her to go away before she took out the booklet from her sleeve and looked at it fixedly.

This thing is the character relationship map she asked Xiao Ji for before, which records in detail the complicated and complicated relationships between the various ethnic groups in the capital.

While looking at the booklet, Cheng Shuiyao took out the map he had drawn before and marked it in detail.

She was afraid that Xiao Ji would see the clues, so the target was more abstract, and only she could understand it.

Carefully remembering this picture in his mind, Cheng Shuiyao sighed, lit a candle, and burned the paper clean.

Although she deliberately did not write realistically, Xiao Ji is extremely smart, and there is still a possibility to see it.

Just in case, it's better to burn it.

Seeing the paper turn to ashes, Cheng Shuiyao half-leaned back in her chair and stared at the ceiling.

But before her thoughts could spread, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and remembered something she had been ignoring

"I almost forgot about it." Cheng Shuiyao slapped his head vigorously, and then hurriedly walked out of the inn.

"Madame, where are you going?" Mo Qi happened to bump into her and asked curiously.

"You appeared just in time," Cheng Shuiyao stopped and looked up at him, "Do you have anyone else here?" ”

"Huh?" Mo Qi was caught off guard by her question, and didn't know how to answer for a while.

"I mean, if we leave, there will be no one here who can do anything," Cheng Shuiyao saw that he didn't understand his words, and hurriedly added.

"Madame wants to ask if there are any of our manpower here," Mo Qi understood what she meant, and hurriedly spoke, "This is naturally there." ”

"Then you go to Xiao Ji now and ask him to assign someone to me," Cheng Shuiyao nodded, and then quickly ordered, "At the latest, I want to see this person appear." ”

"Yes!" Seeing her expression, Mo Qi knew that the matter was very urgent, so he didn't dare to delay at all, so he turned around and left

"Oh, that's right," Cheng Shuiyao suddenly remembered for a moment, and hurriedly stopped him, "I'm going to send someone with business acumen to find me in the Li Mansion." ”

"Yes!" Mo Qi nodded, and seeing that she didn't mean to speak again, he hurried down to do what she had arranged.

Cheng Shuiyao breathed a sigh of relief, then hurriedly stepped into the carriage and went straight to the Li Mansion.

"Isn't this Mrs. Cheng, why did you suddenly come here today?"

It happened that the housekeeper was patrolling at the door, and when he saw Cheng Shuiyao, he greeted him.

"Don't talk nonsense, I have something to discuss with your master, you hurry up and report to me," Cheng Shuiyao didn't bother to be polite to him, and opened his mouth straight to the point.

"This ......," the butler hesitated for a moment.

"What, he's not in the house?" Cheng Shuiyao paused, thinking that he was going to run away

"Yes," the butler hurriedly waved his hand, "that is, our master is now discussing things with other shop owners in the city, and he may not be available." ”

"And what are they discussing?" Cheng Shuiyao frowned and glanced in the direction of the main hall.

"There is something about the trade of the barbarian tribe," the housekeeper really Cheng Shuiyao's temper, he didn't dare to hide it at all, and directly told it.

"Then I'm just in time," Cheng Shuiyao breathed a sigh of relief, and then went straight to the main hall.

In the main hall, Li Shanhai sat in the first place, drinking tea with his head down.

"Cheng Niangzi, stay!"

The housekeeper's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, and Li Shanhai held the cup for a moment, and a few traces of light flashed in his eyes.

Cheng Shuiyao didn't care about the housekeeper's obstruction at all, directly pushed open the door, and saluted the shop owners present.

Everyone was shocked by this sudden turn of events, and they looked at each other, but they didn't know how to speak.

"This is the Cheng lady I mentioned to you." Li Shanhai broke this embarrassing scene with his words and took the initiative to put her in the first place.

"Master Li, I also have some advantages in trading with the barbarians, what do you mean by not informing me?" Cheng Shuiyao had a smile on her face, but the smile never reached the bottom of her eyes.

If she hadn't suddenly remembered this matter today, I'm afraid it would have really made Li Shanhai put it in place.

"Cheng Niangzi also said that you take advantage of the interests and not others, and we are gathered together today mainly to discuss the goods to trade with the barbarians, so it is understandable that we do not call you."

Li Shanhai was not asked by her at all, but opened his mouth with a smile.

"Oh?" Cheng Shuiyao raised her eyebrows, unceremoniously poured herself a cup of tea, and then leaned back in the chair slowly.

"I don't even know your usual cargo, how can I judge my interests?" Cheng Shuiyao slowly accentuated her tone, "Master Li, is this bullying me for not knowing how to do business?" ”

This......

Li Shanhai didn't expect that his idea would be punctured before it was fully implemented, and his face was momentarily stunned.

"You're not talking?" Cheng Shuiyao snorted coldly, and then turned his head to look at the few shop owners sitting below, "He didn't say it, I said, all of you here are businessmen, and they must know what is the most profitable to sell, so when you trade with the barbarian tribe, the things you choose are nothing more than fruits, rice, flour and grains." ”

"Cheng Niangzi is right, we really plan to do so," He Jiuyi and Boss He nodded truthfully, and admired Cheng Shuiyao a little more in his heart.

What this lady said was indeed right, they did discuss these things before.

"Then I'm going to ask you a question, how much money can you make after you sell these things?" Cheng Shuiyao's face was as usual, but her eyelids were slightly raised, and she seemed to be casually scanning the people below.

This......

Several bosses suddenly hesitated, not knowing whether they should tell the truth or not.

"I know it's a difficult question to answer, but I'm also well aware that you're selling these things for less than half the price, yes or no?"

Cheng Shuiyao deliberately increased the speed of speech, not giving them a chance to react at all.
