Chapter 216: I want to make money! Prince, do you buy jewelry?

~15 min read 2,819 words

Seven Heroes Town seemed to be another world in the Ming Empire. People here only cared about things here. The capital was not far away, but they didn't even know who the Emperor was.

Everyone in Tongfu Inn still called Chu Yang the original Prince...

A group of people here only knew that the original Emperor had passed away and a new Emperor had been changed. As for who it was, they didn't have much interest. For most commoners, the Emperor seemed to be just a code name.

Even Guo Furong was like this. She didn't even know that her father was no longer the instructor of the 800,000 Imperial Guard, and she was happy and happy like a fool every day.

"Hehehe, Senior Brother, you came to see me, did you bring any gifts?"

"Bring a hammer."

"Where is the hammer?"

"......"

Guo Furong's intelligence level had a tendency to be seriously assimilated, although she was not very smart originally.

The two were chatting in the lobby. Because it was too early, no guests had come to the door yet.

Speaking of which, there wasn't even a guest staying in an inn, the business of Tongfu Inn was really miserable.

So Chu Yang became the God of Wealth in Manager Tong's eyes. Without her ordering, a table of good dishes was actively sent to the table, and the fish and meat made Guo Furong drool.

"Prince, our small shop doesn't have anything good to eat, please make do with it, I'll let Dazui buy vegetables later."

Manager Tong, sitting in the main seat, covered her mouth with a palace fan, looking at Chu Yang with a smile, looking like she wanted to speak but stopped.

The one running the inn had to buy vegetables now, which made Chu Yang cry and laugh, so he simply took out a few thick silver ingots from his arms and placed them in front of him.

The moment she saw the silver ingots, Manager Tong's eyes shone like incandescent lamps, and the corners of her eyes pulled to the limit that humans could reach.

Chu Yang was stunned.

But before Manager Tong could be happy, Guo Furong quickly scooped the silver into her arms and shouted, "This is a meeting gift from my Senior Brother to me!"

"Guo Furong!" Manager Tong jumped up with a "swoosh", walked quickly to Guo Furong's side, and reached out to start grabbing, "You still have the nerve to say, how many things in the shop have you broken these days, my blue and white porcelain bowls and dishes and sandalwood stools, don't these cost money?"

"And the guests you injured, the guests you scared away, are all the shop's losses. I didn't care about you when I had no money, now that I have money, why don't you compensate me quickly!"

In Manager Tong's mouth, Guo Furong was like a tyrant reborn, almost causing Tongfu Inn to go bankrupt.

Guo Furong herself was also stunned, subconsciously loosening her hand, revealing the silver. Manager Tong's hand speed was fast, leaving an afterimage in the air, and she took the silver back in three or two strokes.

Old Bai, passing by, said in shock, "Manager, you chose the wrong profession. If you had mixed with me a few years earlier, maybe the name of the Thief Saint would be yours."

Chu Yang also nodded and said, "People can force out potential when they are in a hurry."

Manager Tong put the silver into her arms and returned to her lady-like posture, covering her mouth and laughing, "Hehehe, let the Prince see a joke, small business, it's rare to meet a guest as generous as the Prince."

Chu Yang waved his hand with a smile, "Senior Sister has caused Manager Tong a lot of trouble here, a little silver is not a heart, thank you Manager."

"Next, I will stay at Tongfu Inn for a period of time, and I will trouble Manager Tong in all aspects, hope you worry more."

The God of Wealth wants to stay at Tongfu Inn?

"This is what you say, how can I take care of you, it's you taking care of us!" Manager Tong laughed from ear to ear, and the unrestrained laughter echoed in the lobby, just like a fox that stole a chicken, which was scary. Old Bai was shivering on the side.

After speaking, she ran to the backyard to urge Li Dazui to cook more dishes, regardless of whether Chu Yang could finish eating or not. If he couldn't finish, it didn't matter, there were so many people in the inn, and one bite each could solve the leftovers.

Tong Xiangyu never did business at a loss.

Guo Furong sat on the chair in a daze, just now she was still drooling over the dishes on the table, now she didn't even look at them, muttering to herself, "My silver..."

Even the food was not put in her eyes, it seemed she was really a bit sad. Chu Yang put a chicken leg into her bowl and comforted, "Getting used to losing money is fine, look at me, I never take it to heart!"

Guo Furong glared at Chu Yang, her voice filled with crying, "You have money, of course you don't care. If you were a poor person, let's see if you can still say this!"

Chu Yang agreed with this, and hurriedly nodded and sighed, "Fortunately, I have money."

Guo Furong: "......"

Disgusting Guo Furong, it was considered to make up for the depression of being almost pitted to death by her when walking the jianghu before. Chu Yang laughed very happily, his appetite opened, and he began to sweep the army before the dining table.

Guo Furong stuffed the chicken leg in the bowl into her mouth, bit it hard, as if making some kind of determination, "I want to make money!"

Chu Yang smiled gratifiedly, "Hmm, ambitious, may I ask how the heroine makes money, and wants to rob the rich and help the poor again? I don't know which kind person will meet you, this evil star."

Recalling the previous achievements, Guo Furong was ashamed and angry, and said angrily, "I want to make money properly!"

Chu Yang was surprised, "Did you think about improper ones before?!"

Guo Furong swallowed the chicken leg in a few bites, and shouted to Xiucai who was calculating accounts at the counter, "Lu Xiucai, the old lady has decided, I want to help you publish a book!"

Xiucai was so scared that he threw the pen in his hand, regretting not letting Guo Furong read the novel he wrote. Seeing her yelling like this, he, who was thin-skinned, hurriedly came over to try to cover Guo Furong's mouth.

"What are you doing!"

Guo Furong practiced martial arts, how could she let Xiucai succeed, and slapped Xiucai with a slap, making him howl.

"Don't be so loud, otherwise everyone will know I'm writing a book!"

Lu Xiucai said with a blushing face.

"Know it if you know it, what's so embarrassing?"

Guo Furong looked at him inexplicably, feeling that he was making a fuss.

Lu Xiucai pulled Guo Furong aside and whispered, "The Prince is still here!"

Guo Furong was still confused, "He is his, what does it have to do with your writing a book?"

Lu Xiucai said embarrassedly, "I also wrote the Prince into the book, and it's a big villain. If the Prince knows, will I be..."

As he said, Lu Xiucai made a throat-slitting gesture.

Guo Furong's eyes widened, "When did you write it, why didn't I see it?"

Lu Xiucai explained, "The latest plot, I only wrote it not long ago. When you came last time, the Prince cut off the arms of those two eunuchs, and then sat on the ground with his old friend and drank together. The Prince's unrestrained and heroic spirit left a deep impression on me. After having inspiration, I brewed it for a long time before writing it out."

Guo Furong doubted, "According to what you say, my Senior Brother should be a righteous person."

Lu Xiucai said embarrassedly, "If he is a righteous person, doesn't it make me too weak? Divine Pen Scholar Lu Luodi is the protagonist."

Guo Furong looked at Lu Xiucai deeply.

You really are a closeted guy... After dragging it out for so long, Guo Furong finally understood why Lu Xiucai was afraid of Chu Yang knowing he was writing a novel; if Chu Yang wanted to read it, Lu Xiucai would have no way to refuse.

As a dignified Prince, if he knew he was written into a novel and was still a villain, he definitely wouldn't let Lu Xiucai go.

Under normal circumstances, this is correct.

But Guo Furong knew Chu Yang's personality well. Although his mouth was a bit poisonous sometimes, he was a very good person. She had caused him so much trouble, and she didn't see him getting up one night to kill her.

Thinking of this, Guo Furong realized later and felt ashamed.

"What did you write my Senior Brother into, hurry up and show it to me!" Guo Furong glared and said angrily.

"Don't worry, I didn't dare to write randomly." Lu Xiucai didn't dare to arrange the Prince at will. He spent a lot of effort on this role, even more than the protagonist, shaping him into a villain with great personality charm.

After a while, the two hid behind the stairs to check the content of the novel to see if there was any out-of-bounds content.

After reading the general plot, Guo Furong's face gradually improved. Just as Xiucai said, he didn't write randomly. The villain character based on Chu Yang was very interesting. She was fascinated after reading just a few paragraphs.

"Hmm, it's written okay, if it's written like this, Senior Brother won't blame you." Guo Furong read the manuscript repeatedly for a while, and then said, "It's just that the name of the Carefree Prince is a bit rotten on the street, can you take a handsome one?"

"No, no, the word Carefree has a lot of artistic conception, very consistent with the Prince's unrestrained temperament!" Lu Xiucai, who discussed publishing a book, suddenly became confident, "Think about the Prince's posture when facing the enemy last time, even more calm and free than Guo the Hero, waving his hand to defeat two experts."

"Only such a villain can give the protagonist greater pressure, forcing the protagonist to grow up. When he is defeated by the protagonist, the reader will have a stronger sense of substitution!"

Guo Furong was convinced by the eloquent Xiucai, and suddenly felt that the three words Carefree Prince were very appropriate, so she no longer questioned.

"Will the Prince really not care?"

"Don't worry, he wishes you would write him even more handsome!"

"Completely no problem! As long as the Prince is happy, it's fine to change him to the protagonist."

"Eww~~~ you look really disgusting now, just like the treacherous official in the book!"

"Who are you calling a treacherous official?!"

Then the two discussed the matter of publishing a book, whispering behind the stairs, but no matter how small they spoke, they couldn't escape Chu Yang's ears.

Hearing that he was written as "Carefree Prince", Chu Yang was a bit dumbfounded. He always felt that this name was a bit familiar. No wonder Guo Furong said it was rotten on the street.

But let them go, anyway, the name is just a code name.

Guo Furong swore that she wanted to make money, it turned out that she wanted to help Xiucai publish a book. I don't know where she got the channel.

"Why are you two not working and hiding here? Laziness is blatant, and you are not afraid that the Manager will come down later and talk about you!"

Old Bai didn't know where he popped out, fanning the rag on his shoulder in front of the two, rolling the dust in the air everywhere.

"Cough cough, Old Bai, you came just in time, I still have something to discuss with you!"

Guo Furong originally wanted to get angry, then her eyes turned, and she pulled Old Bai to the other side to whisper.

Chu Yang also heard a general idea, meaning Guo Furong wanted Old Bai to be a supervisor. In case the publisher was dissatisfied with the content written by Lu Xiucai, and Xiucai was unwilling to change it, let Old Bai give him some intensity, numbness point, itching point, dumb point, all of them come one by one.

The viciousness was comparable to Zhou Bapi.

Chu Yang, who heard the whole process, almost laughed out loud. If Master Guo saw his daughter's capitalist face, he didn't know how angry he would be.

Just for a while, Manager Tong came out of her boudoir, but her expression looked a bit worried. Just now she was happy, but now she changed her face, looking in a bad mood.

"Why are you guys not working well and gathering together? Did you mop the floor, did you wipe the tables and benches, open all the windows to ventilate for me, there are so many things to do and you are still standing!"

Manager Tong showed the appearance of a vigorous woman, scolding the waiters, and everyone didn't know why the Manager who was fine just now suddenly bared her fangs and brandished her claws, but they didn't dare to ask, and returned to their posts in a gray way.

After speaking, she also apologized to Chu Yang with a smile, "Let you see a joke."

Chu Yang took a sip of wine, "It's good to be lively."

Guo Furong still wanted to sit down and continue to eat a big meal with Chu Yang, but was pulled up by Manager Tong, "Go to the backyard and call Xiao Bei to go to school, what time is it, still sleeping!"

"If she is late, I will deduct your silver!"

"Why!" Guo Furong was in a hurry, the three words deducting silver had a great stimulus to her, and she didn't even have extra arguments with Manager Tong, and disappeared in the lobby with a "swoosh".

Old Bai sighed, "Xiao Guo's light work, if she mixed with me a few years earlier, maybe she would be a thief saint."

"There are thief saints all over the street, can others live!" Manager Tong said irritably, "You come up with me, I have something to find you."

"Something to find me again, there are quite a few people looking for me today." Old Bai laughed, jumping up the stairs, no matter what the Manager was looking for him, he could do less work, and it was justified for workers to touch fish.

Not long after, the sound of talking came from the room. Chu Yang was not interested in listening to the wall, but his five senses were too strong now, even if he deliberately suppressed it, he still heard a few sentences vaguely.

"Lei Laowu's things... write off... hand over to the government... sell separately..."

Manager Tong got a batch of stolen goods by chance, which was left by a grave robber. She was afraid of not being able to explain it to the government, so Old Bai suggested that she find a few fools with money, dismantle the jewelry and sell them one by one.

That's about it.

Chu Yang could understand their taboos. Magistrate Lou was still clean, but this kind of thing that couldn't be explained, plus Old Bai's past, it was really hard not to make people suspicious, so it was better to have one less thing than one more thing.

Thump thump thump, the sound of footsteps sounded.

Old Bai and Manager Tong went downstairs.

It happened that Chu Yang was full of food and drink, so he let Old Bai clean up the table. Manager Tong glanced at the desktop and found that the food was eaten clean by Chu Yang, and she was shocked as a heaven-man.

The dishes that all the people in their inn couldn't finish in three days were finished by Chu Yang in one meal! "Prince, you are really a sea of quantity, are you not afraid of food accumulation?"

"People who practice martial arts, consume a little bit of exercise."

"Then isn't it easy to eat and not get fat? Does practicing martial arts have this use?"

"Not really, my constitution is special."

While the two were chatting, Manager Tong quickly approached Chu Yang and sat down, looking at Chu Yang affectionately.

"Prince, do you buy jewelry?"

Old Bai, who was wiping the table, felt his legs go soft when he heard this, and knelt directly on the ground, almost scared to death.

Chu Yang: "......"
