Chapter 1702: The Renown of Longyan Perfume

~7 min read 1,298 words

Hearing this, everyone was stunned.

This bottle of Longyan Perfume in a porcelain container was actually the best among all Longyan Perfumes.

Qin's status was clear to all; she was a woman of the world, so everyone believed what she said.

They all looked at Lady Danni, finding it hard to believe that this woman, who almost never went out, would possess such perfume.

Lady Sultan also looked incredulous; at first, when Lady Danni said she used Longyan Perfume, she hadn't believed it.

But she hadn't expected that Lady Danni not only had it, but it was also the cream of the crop among Longyan Perfumes.

This was something she had completely not expected.

"Miss Qin, are you saying this bottle of perfume is extremely precious?" Danni asked in return.

"That is indeed the case." Qin nodded.

Danni looked at Lady Taisi and said indifferently: "It seems someone needs to apologize for her ignorance. Lady Taisi, please honor your previous promise."

Lady Taisi's face was frighteningly gloomy; she glanced at Danni and snorted coldly: "Boring."

She stood up and left, having no intention at all of honoring her previous promise.

Seeing Lady Taisi leave, Lady Sultan said aggressively: "Lady Taisi, please mind your reputation."

Hearing this, Lady Taisi left in a flustered state under the gaze of everyone without even looking back.

Everyone sneered; Lady Taisi had lost face tonight, and they looked at Danni with immense curiosity.

"Lady Danni, where did you get this bottle of Longyan Perfume?"

"That's right, even the British Colonial District has never seen this style of Longyan Perfume; how do you have it?"

"Did Qiaozhi give it to you?"

Facing a barrage of questions, Lady Danni had not thought of how to answer.

This bottle of perfume was a gift from Masha, but in front of Qin, especially knowing that Qin liked Qiaozhi, she did not know how to explain this matter.

She had not expected that Masha would be willing to give her such a precious gift.

Just as Danni was thinking about how to explain this, Qiaozhi walked over and smiled: "Is this bottle of perfume a welcoming gift from my future wife to my sister-in-law?"

"Sister-in-law, have you forgotten? This was given to you by Masha."

Hearing this, a flash of disappointment crossed Qin's eyes.

Danni, however, was as flustered as could be; she could only give a soft hum, unable to voice a rebuttal.

Everyone was slightly stunned, not expecting it to be a gift from Qiaozhi's fiancée, but Qiaozhi was currently being liked by Qin...

Lady Sultan was very surprised; she had not expected Masha to give Lady Danni Longyan Perfume, and even less did she expect Qiaozhi to speak so bluntly, completely disregarding Miss Qin's feelings, which made her feel a bit jealous and even more surprised.

Qiaozhi glanced at Qin and noticed her expression was somewhat disappointed; he did not say much, but instead reached out his hand to ask for this precious bottle of Longyan Perfume.

"Please return it to us, thank you."

Hearing Qiaozhi's words, Qin was still slightly stunned, but after a moment of internal hesitation, she handed the bottle of perfume back to Qiaozhi.

Qiaozhi smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, we should leave."

Lady Danni looked at the awkward atmosphere in the venue, especially after offending Miss Qin once again, staying at the banquet was indeed not a good idea.

She nodded, stood up, and left together with Qiaozhi.

Qin watched the back of the person she liked as he left, her eyes filled with disappointment.

However, very quickly, Qin reignited her fighting spirit.

After all, she was not someone who would admit defeat.

If she liked something, she must obtain it.

At this time, on the other side of America.

Qingyang Shuo and Qin Zhangfeng drafted a defense plan for Longyan City.

Although the movements of the war might not necessarily affect Longyan City, especially since there had been no definite confirmation from the French Colonial Zone.

News.

But that did not mean it would not happen.

However, this action was being carried out in secret; at least on the surface, Longyan City would not make any moves to join the war.

Qin Zhangfeng ordered people to use sand, stone, and mud to create a sand table that 100% restored the environment surrounding Longyan City.

Such sand table warfare would be more three-dimensional and intuitive.

Longyan City was surrounded by mountains on all four sides, and between the mountains were traffic roads cleared by the Longyan Army, which could accommodate horse carriages.

The surroundings were all jungles; this was Longyan City's natural protective shield, but it was also the place most easily overlooked.

Although these jungles hindered the entry of cavalry, they also created the possibility for enemy forces to conduct covert operations.

For this reason, Qin Zhangfeng established multiple bases in the jungles around Longyan City to control the traffic arteries in all directions.

These bases, according to their own circumstances, set up multiple overt and covert sentries to monitor the surrounding situation, so as to avoid sudden enemy appearances causing irreparable damage to the Longyan Army.

Of course, these were just the most basic plans.

Qin Zhangfeng designed minefields around Longyan City to prevent enemy forces from continuing to advance after breaking through their lines.

But these could only monitor crises on the surface.

Longyan City was surrounded by mountains on all four sides, and the greatest crisis came from these surrounding mountains.

There were countless paths to go up the mountains, and the Longyan Army could not and could not possibly seal off all the mountains; the manpower required for this was simply an astronomical figure.

But it was impossible not to defend these mountains.

Regarding the defense on the mountains, Qin Zhangfeng prepared the following steps.

First, at the mountain peaks, Longyan Cannons must be installed; only by occupying the commanding heights could one monitor the environment and situation below.

Secondly, in order to prevent enemy forces from bypassing the mountain roads to attack.

Qin Zhangfeng had designed many defensive zone monitors.

These defensive zones were all directly connected; as long as enemy troops passed through here, the Longyan Army in other locations would be able to receive the news.

Pulling one hair affects the whole body.

Whether it was the French troops or the British troops, there was no Method for them to enter their defensive zones without making a sound.

Unless they ran into ghosts.

This was a very vast defensive line, and the material transport required for it was also immense.

Such defensive zones were designed surrounding Longyan City.

Longyan City possessed a vast area of arable land, and various Factories were set up in the surrounding area, capable of providing a continuous supply of materials for these war zones.

What Qin Zhangfeng was fighting was a defensive war.

After all, with the current meager troop strength of Longyan City, it was impossible to launch an active offensive.

Although the Weaponry and Equipment of the Longyan Army were top-tier.

The troop strength was simply too small.

It was unrealistic to have the Longyan Army launch an active offensive, and attacking their two Colonial Areas was not the best choice either.

Only if the French Colonial Zone and the British Colonial District were constantly in Bitter Remonstrance could Longyan City profit from it.

As for Qingyang Shuo, he was very happy to see Britain and France constantly frictioning and in Bitter Remonstrance.

This was a fortunate event for Longyan City.

Of course, the premise for all of this was built upon the condition that it would not threaten Longyan City.
