The sky was big, and the earth was big, but none were greater than a gentleentleman, the teacher was leaderIf the teacher traveled far, then the gentleentleman was not the opposite of the entlemanThat is to say, the person as still sest leader in SuzhouThus, shi+ Chanli was not worried aboutto be distressed for a reed to the prince's requests
The Third Prince fiercely ordered the housemaids and eunuchs, who had just been chased out of the palace, to stay in the uards and left thethe little master disappear beyond the door, the eunuchs and househt that without the co had turned on its headThey couldn't resist offering up a prayer for the couess that it was originally Fan Xian anted to borrow the Third Prince's identity to put pressure on people?
It was rare for the Third Prince to have an opportunity like this to play, so he was not in a rushThe group of people changed their outfits, disguising the masters of a wealthy familyshi+ Chanli, with fear, accepted the role of older brotherThe Third Prince was naturally the younger brotherSitting in the carriage, they went around Suzhou and saw many scenesThey also saw a few pleasure boats on the lakeOnly then did the Third Prince's interest begin to wane
”The weather is too cold, and the girls are wearing too muchHow can we see the ro master furrowed his brows”Let's choose the place firstI'll have to put some effort into the business Fan Xian wants to do, otherwise if I tell hiry”
shi+ Chanli secretly celebratedIt should have been like this long ago
The proble a location was easily solvedThey just had to find where in Suzhou was the liveliestThe group of people pushed their way in and found the busiest street in the areaThey then looked around a bit and found there were already many brothels; this was already a developed hot areaWith this, they set their general direction
In this large area of the city, they exa had the best appearance and looked into whichever building appeared the roup easily found their matchIt was a restaurant that took up the best location on the streetIt was a spacious and extravagant three-story buildingThe yard wall could be faintly seen in the back, and it took up a lot of land
The Third Prince waved his little hand”No need to keep lookingI think this one is the best”
shi+ Chanli was unspeakably delightedManaging Baoyue Brothel in Jingdou, he had been in business for a little while, but he had never thought that taking the prince to pick an address could be efficient to this extentWhen doing things with money and power, it was indeed clean and tidy
However, as he stood in front of the restaurant, he had a thought and said in a small voice, ”This place is too conspicuousI think there has to be soround to this”
The Third Prince paused and asked, ”Whose faer than mine in this world?”
shi+ Chanli opened hisfor a whileHe forced down a overnor has shares or the inspector general? Although I don't care, we do need to give these officials so, he was not a foolish personHe realized this was indeed the caseGovernor Xue Qing was not sohtly offendBesides, he and his people had coood to take face away fronan officials
As he looked at the location of this restaurant, the azed, the better it lookedHe furrowed his thin brows and thought for a while before saying, ”We should still askIf we let such a perfect location pass, even if Fan Xian won't feel bad about it, I'll feel heart sore for days”
This group had been standing outside the restaurant for a whileThey had only been paying attention to the structure and were blocking the entranceThey weren't buying, only lookingAs they stood outside the door pointing and whispering secretively, they immediately drew the attention of the people on the streetThe people saw that their clothes were bright and guards were strongThey didn't look like people of the jianghu, so thehearts
However, the shopkeeper of the restaurant was forced to go outPushi+ng a professional smile on his face he asked, ”Sirs, would you like to conature dish? This is the Zhuyuan RestaurantAlong with the Jiangnan Inn, we are known together as the Suzhou TwoWe do have soroup in front of him caar, thus he treated theround, but this merchant had a clever and ni in his speech showed any sense of accusing the
shi+ Chanli was startled and said with a war attention just thenPlease don't take offense”
The shopkeeper quickly replied that he was too kindThe Third Prince did not have the patience for the slow pace”Let's go in and sit down before we talk” He then led the group of people in to the buildingAt the end he tossed out another order, ”Shopkeeper, arrange for a quiet roos I would like to inquire about”
The shopkeeper paused, thinking the older brother hadn't spoken, so how cohed a few ti
The group had not yet taken their seats in one of the room before the shopkeeper entered to personally look after themThe Third Prince didn't waste words”Shopkeeper, are you selling this building?”
The shopkeeper had been surprisedmaster's attitude was not small, but he had dealt with countless difficult situations in his life and so he s ood businessIt doesn't seehts to sell it”
”Pray ask, what is the owner's surnahness' impatience and asked in a war, the shopkeeper replied, ”The owner's surname is Qian”
…

After the shopkeeper left, shi+ Chanli frowned and said, ”This is our first trip to SuzhouWe don't know anything about the connections in SuzhouWe have no idea who this Qian person is”
The Third Prince stood up and pushed open thein the roo strange
shi+ Chanli felt curious and stood behind him to see out theHe was arden of the Zhuyuan RestaurantIncredibly there was a flat lake in the gardenAlthough the lake was not wide, it was quiet and secludedThe talls of the garden separated it froreen, but it was easy to see how beautiful the scene would be in spring
”It's like…”
Both of then sighed at the san behind this building and that of the Baoyue Brothel in JingdouIf they built a few quiet and secluded yards on the grass, it would a twin of the Baoyue Brothel in Jingdou
Seeing the back garden of the Zhuyuan Restaurant, both the forers of the Baoyue Brothel were swayed enorreat , the Third Prince and shi+ Chanli both spoke at the sahed out loudThe rest of the matter was simpleAfter they went back, they would think of a way to investigate the Zhuyuan Restaurant's backgroundThey only hoped there wouldn't be anyone too strong in the backgroundIf it involved officials ere too high ranking, things would beco, so where did all his sighs come from? ”If Fan Sizhe was here, he would probably sue the owner of this restaurantHe would point his finger at their nose and say the other person shaht for a bitThe second young master Fan did indeed have that kind of personalityHe couldn't help huffing out a laugh
”What's so funny?” The Third Prince gave hilare”That cousin of mine is even darker than the older cousin…of course, neither of them are kind soulsThey forcefully used a crafty escape plan, bullying me because of et, you played a part in this too!”
shi+ Chanli shrank back and did not dare coreatly approved of the chef's abilitiesIt inspired the Third Prince to want to take the chef along with the building
After they finished eating and were about to leave, the shopkeeper had urgently come back to their rooainAs he wiped aeat he said in a small voice, ”Sirs, could we discuss your earlier offer to buy the building again?”
The Third Prince and his group were curiousIt was clear that this building's business was booht up earlier, it was clear that the other party had defensesHow coed so much?
shi+ Chanli asked, ”Shopkeeper, what do you hed hollowly and said, ”The owner heard of this ht that since the business has not been as good as previous years, hea priceHe only hoped that the guests would give an appropriate priceThe other thing was…he hoped that after this building changed hands, the guests would e and was just about to ask ot ahead and smiled sweetly, ”NaturallyWe are also business peopleOf course illwellOnly, you mentioned an appropriate price earlierI wonder what price would be considered appropriate?”
The room immediately became silent
The shopkeeper frozeHe wondered if this young iven instructionsHow could he give a price? It seemed the owner intended to offer it up with both hands, but the other party didn't seem to realize this
The sweat on his forehead ca had turned into the hottestwhile, the shopkeeper finally gathered enough courage and extended four fingers
shi+ Chanli pausedThe guards in the roo? No matter how famous the lion heads[JW3] were here, no lion opened itsthe other party didn't comment, the shopkeeper felt a bit scared and quickly drew back three of the fingers, leaving just one solitary finger standing
shi+ Chanli aleHe didn't have to say anything and the price dropped fro in the blink of an eyeAfter sooodHe nodded and said, ”Although 10,000 liang isn't s went soft and he al”
