With Lu Changan leading the way, the rest of the shopkeepers all trusted Chu Yunge more and more. They all stood up, eager to introduce themselves to Chu Yunge.
"Don't worry everyone, the night is still long. Let's slowly memorize it one by one." Chu Yunge smiled in satisfaction, and raised her hand to signal the shopkeepers: "Calm down, there's no need to be impatient. You haven't eaten much of the food at the banquet, it's a pity that you don't. Why don't we eat while we go to my subordinates to register and queue up one by one? There's no need to be so hasty. One person was registered on the register, so the next shopkeeper got up and went to report. There are only fifty or so people present, and all of them will be registered in less than two hours. "
"If that's the case, then we'll eat first." The fat storekeeper, who was sitting next to Chu Yunge, immediately laughed mischievously. She couldn't help but pick up her chopsticks and start gobbling down the hot dishes on the table.
The other bosses didn't have much to say. They all sat on the chairs, picked up the chopsticks on the table and savored the dinner.
Seeing that the banquet had been announced as a perfect success, Chu Yunge happily raised her eyebrows and sat down.
After talking for so long, smoke was coming out of her throat. Just as she sat down on the round stool, she impatiently grabbed the teacup in front of her.
Just as her fingers were about to touch the teacup, the windbreaker beside her took the first step to take away the teacup that she had wanted to hold up. However, it was not given to her to drink, so she very considerately lifted the teacup's cover and placed it before her lips: "Why not drink? Seeing you speak so much just now, you must be thirsty, right? "
"Hmm, in order to persuade them, I have really learned all my tricks." Chu Yunge carefully looked around, then quickly extended her hand to catch the teacup that Feng Yi handed to him and quietly said, "For matters like drinking tea, I can take care of it myself, you don't have to do anything. Don't forget that you are the Prefect. We have to keep our distance. By now, everyone knows that Chu Yunge is your, Feng Yi's, princess consort, and I don't want to be crowned as someone who came out of the wall with a red apricot. "
"Xiao Ge, what are you saying? No matter what others say, I won't believe it because I know you aren't that kind of person." Feng Yi looked at her affectionately, warmth flowing through his phoenix eyes.
"Yo, you seem to understand me quite well. "Then tell me, who am I?" Chu Yunge couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, but a smile flashed past her eyes.
Feng Yi muttered to himself for a moment, then said softly, "Xiao Ge, you mentioned something to me earlier, I know that your thoughts are not as old-fashioned as us, you are just like that 'bond' banknote, if you don't raise it, then perhaps in the entire Three Kingdoms, no one would think of such a way to exchange the banknotes in a few hundred years. However, since you were young, you have only been raised in the palace. If I say that you are clever and knowledgeable, I believe that you have read a lot of books. However, many of the things that you've done have long surpassed the things that an ordinary princess would know. "
As he said that, he raised his almond-shaped eyes and looked at her steadily, then continued to speak: "Xiao Ge, tell your husband, alright? Who exactly are you?"
"I …" She looked at his affectionate eyes, her breathing slowed down, and her ears started to feel a little hot. She looked away in embarrassment, drinking tea and whispering to him, "Didn't I tell you before, the place I started to live in was not here, but a place very, very far away from now, and not even from the same era. In our world, civilization and technology have been ahead of you for thousands of years. "
"I know this, you have indeed said it, but Xiao Ge, you did not tell me what you did in your time? "What family's daughter are you to have so much knowledge?"
"That …" Chu Yunge's face stiffened, she instantly recalled her various experiences in the modern world, as well as her birth.
In the ancient times, in this era, she was the incomparably noble Imperial Protector Princess, doted upon by her royal father and her mother, and doted upon by three Chu Yan s.
But in the modern world, she was not a person of noble birth.
She had been an orphan since childhood and had grown up in an orphanage.
Later on, because of his talent in sports and shooting talent, he was adopted by a mysterious organization and secretly trained to become a secret agent.
Helping the organization to assassinate and spy on people, even though that kind of life was very exciting, but every day they lived on the edge of a knife.
This was because he did not know when danger would come and when his identity would be revealed.
You won't know if you will still be able to return to see the sun tomorrow on the next mission.
Thus, in the modern society, she had no parents and didn't even know who her real parents were. She had never seen one before. She had used her own money to buy herself a beautiful big house, but in that house, she didn't dare to have any pets to accompany her.
She had no family, no love, no friends. Even pets could not be raised.
She didn't know how long she would live. If she died one day and was unable to return to her house, wouldn't the pets in the house die of starvation?
Therefore, in the modern society, she had always been alone.
In this ancient era, all of the things that were used for were, she had learned them when she was working as a secret service agent.
As a secret service agent, not only did he need to know the basics of assassination, tracking, tracking, and swimming, but he also needed to grasp the social dynamics. Stock, finance, and architecture. The more he learned, the more beneficial it would be for him in the future.
However, she also did not expect that after she died, she would teleport back to ancient times.
The knowledge he had learned was not wasted on him. It was all useful to him here.
Especially with the concept of bonds, she had practically promoted the concept of financial investment ahead of time by nearly a thousand years.
This was her golden finger.
However, she couldn't exactly tell Feng Yi that she was a wild child that no one wanted, and that she didn't know who her parents were, right?
Thinking about it, Chu Yunge felt a little awkward. She looked at Feng Yi awkwardly and muttered: "This, is very important to you, do you have to know?"
"How could a husband not care about loving her wife? She doesn't want to know." Feng Yi's thin lips curved, even though she was wearing a fake mask that disguised her appearance as a prefect, his lips still revealed the curves of a beauty that could topple nations, "Just that, if Xiao Ge is in a difficult situation, I will not ask, I don't want to see you unhappy."
"It's not that I'm unhappy. I'm just afraid that you'll laugh at me in the future …" Chu Yunge held the teacup and carefully glanced at Feng Yi. Then he said, "Since I was young, I have never known who my parents are. What I did when I was growing up was also a killing business. It's about the same as the Death Soldiers you're training right now. In any case, the meaning behind his words was quite similar. He was trying his best to serve someone else. However, the skill content is a bit higher, so I have to read a lot of books and I will know a lot. "
"So you were an orphan in those days who never saw her parents?" Feng Yi's eyes dimmed as well, as they lightly flickered for a moment.
"Yes, you must be happy to know that I am a child that no one wants!" "Humph!" Chu Yunge unhappily rolled her eyes and angrily put down the teacup in her hand.
"How could that be?" Feng Yi hurriedly reached out his hand from under the table, grabbed her wrist and said in a low voice, "Why would your husband laugh at you for saying all this? You are the person I love the most, I don't even have enough time to pity you, how can I laugh at you? Furthermore, you are not a child that no one wants. I want you! Even if all the people in the world don't understand you and don't want you, I want you! "
"You, you're just trying to sound nice on the surface!" Hearing Feng Yi's words, Chu Yunge's heart warmed, but she still said stubbornly, "Men are all playful radishes, maybe when you ascend the throne in the future, you will forget every word you've said to me. When the time comes, it will be the new year for the great selection and there will be three thousand beauties in the harem. I'm afraid that every night you will have to carry the beauty Wu Shan Yun Yu, and you will even forget about me, Chu Yunge! "
"Xiao Ge, do you think your husband is that kind of person? We've been working together for so long, and I've treated you very well. Feng Yi hurriedly tried to excuse himself.
"Hmph, let's talk about it in the future. Time will prove everything. "Now that there are so many people, it's useless for me to continue talking about this. After the banquet is over, I'll go to Guan Shan to count the number of people on the register." Chu Yunge shook off Feng Yi's white fingers under the tablecloth, but she still maintained a solemn and official appearance on the surface, and continued, "I have yet to toast these merchants, they are going to Great Chu Kingdom to do business, and as the princess who invited them over, I should toast and express my gratitude."
As he spoke, he stood up and poured himself a glass of Forgetfulness Wine. He then walked in front of a shopkeeper and started to toast to the merchants with a smile on his face.
On the other side, Guan Shan, who was standing in the corner of the hall, was standing in front of a table. He was hurriedly writing and drawing on the account book with a brush, recording the name of each storekeeper and the name of each shop.
By the time they finished, it was already midnight.
After Chu Yunge had her subordinates send away the merchants, she returned to the hall and took the account book from Guan Shan's hands. She asked carefully: "Guan Shan, how many merchants's names are recorded on this account book?"
"Reporting to chief, there are forty-six of them." Guan Shan answered in a deep voice.
"Forty-six people …" Chu Yunge frowned, she recalled the number of people eating at the table just now, there seemed to be 50, after calculating, there were still a few merchants that did not register.
Guan Shan knew what Chu Yunge wanted to ask, so he answered first: "It's like this, the remaining few merchants who are not registered on the list, I've sent people to ask, those few people are all from families with backgrounds, either their husbands are in the imperial court or their daughters are in the imperial harem, so they are not willing to leave because they have relatives in the government."
"Hur hur, alright." Chu Yunge grinned and said playfully, "I have shown them a path to survive, but they are unwilling to take it. Since she had to stay with Baili Lan and hope that there would be benefits, she decided to wait. Baili Lan was someone that could be killed easily by the generals he fought in the battlefield with. Those women who were raised in the harem were like the hairs on a cow, they did not care at all. Why would I care about my father-in-law behind my concubine? "
