Certainly I want to compete with Xiao Chen for business .
“What did they say?” A little gravelly voice came from behind the screen .
“The hostage seems to be interested in Her Highness . But I don’t know his intention at present . ” Xing Er bowed his body even lower .
“Keep a close eye on him . ” The person behind the screen said and then fell into silence . Xing Er drew back with his body bent . Through the blurry screen, Xing Er could see a figure and heard some wheezing . His eyes twinkling, Xing Er finally turned around and left .
Jing Yue got up early in the morning, which surprised Yin Qiao for a long time . Jing Yue always slept as long as she could . Why did she get up so early today?
Yin Qiao went in the room with a basin of water in her hands . “Your Highness, what do you want to do today?” She looked at Jing Yue confusedly and asked .
Jing Yue wore her clothes while turning her head to Yin Qiao, “Tell Xing Er come here . I want him to do something for me . ”
Yin Qiao blinked and said yes respectfully . Then she went out to call Xing Er .
Xing Er stood far away from Jing Yue and saw her combing her hair . He pursed slightly his lips and bowed his head . “Your Highness, what do you want me to do?” Xing Er asked .
“Exchange the gold in my room for silver drafts and go out with me . ” Jing Yue stood up and disguised herself again as a man . Xing Er was stunned a little and felt another headache . ‘What Her Highness wants to do this time . ’
Sitting in the carriage, Jing Yue lifted the curtain slightly and looked at the street outside . “Xing Er, do you know which restaurant nearby is going to close?” Jing Yue narrowed her eyes slightly and asked .
“One on East Street might be closed soon . I remember our housekeeper once mentioned about it . ” Xing Er thought about it for a while and answered .
“Let’s go to the East Street to have a look . ” Jing Yue’s eyes lighted up and ordered Xing Er to go to East Street . Standing in front of the restaurant recommended by Xing Er, a depressing scene leaped to their eyes as expected .
“Your Highness, what do you want to do with this restaurant?” Xing Er asked out of bewilderment and looked at Jing Yue with a frown .
“What to do? Certainly I want to compete with Xiao Chen for business . ” Jing Yue smiled radiantly and strode into the restaurant . Xing Er was stunned for a while and then followed Jing Yue yet with some confusion in his heart . But when he heard Jing Yue really call the head of the restaurant to do business, he completely understood .
“It’s a deal!” Jing Yue took out lots of silver drafts in a domineering manner and claimed with a smile, “From now on, this restaurant belongs to me . ”
“Ah . . . ” The shopkeeper was about thirty . He looked at the money on the table, without any happy expression on his face .
“You take this . ” Jing Yue took out another silver draft and handed it to the man .
“Master, what’s this for?” The man was shocked and asked Jing Yue with confusion .
“I don’t know how to manage it . If you’re reluctant to leave, can you stay here and help me take care of it? This is your salary . I will share one tenth of the income of the restaurant . ” Jing Yue explained, seeing the man’s surprised expression .
“But . . . But I’ve sold the restaurant to you . ” The man hadn’t apprehended Jing Yue’s intention obviously .
“I’ve told you it was your salary . ” Jing Yue sighed, “If you don’t want to stay here, you can just leave with three times the money . ”
“No, no, no . . . Thank you so much . I want to stay here!” The man said excitedly . He hurried to kneel down in front of Jing Yue and extended respects in a loud voice, “I, Shen Yucheng, am always at Master’s disposal . ”
