Chapter Eight: Chamber of Commerce of Five Countries
Chapter 8: Five Countries Chamber of Commerce
"Pretty uncle! This is my mother." Yinbao said happily. Although the pretty uncle is really beautiful, her mother is not inferior to her either! The two little kids quietly figured out in their hearts which of them is the prettier mother.
This uncle is still pretty.
"Is this the mother who left her two children in the wilderness late at night and ignored her?!" The man's tone was a little angry, and he looked at Xianxue as if questioning.
"The situation forced me to do it as a last resort." Xianxue spat out these words lightly, obviously not wanting to explain anything more. The jade bracelet around the man's waist caught her eye. It seemed that she had chosen the wrong person.
"What is the last resort for a woman?" the man snorted coldly, obviously unconcerned.
Xianxue smiled lightly, took a step forward slightly, and lightly opened her lips, "The mountain road ahead is difficult, can the young master give us a ride, mother and son?" Xianxue asked lightly, wondering if his curiosity about her was as much as she imagined.
situation.
The man was stunned for a moment, with an unknown emotion flashing in his eyes, "Are you so sure that the direction I want to go is also the direction you want to go?" A smile seemed to flash at the corner of the man's mouth, and there was a fork in the road ahead, with four directions leading to it.
Although he could reach his destination in the end from four different places, it was impossible for him to change his driving route for this woman. This woman was not as simple as she seemed on the surface. He was really curious about what kind of person she was.
.
Xianxue smiled lightly and nodded gently.
The man was stunned again, "Since we are on the same journey, it doesn't matter if we go together." He spat out a few words and said no more. The woman's smile was like a pebble thrown into his calm heart, causing a ripple.
Echoing and spreading in my heart,,,,,,
"Thank you." Xianxue carried the two little children into the carriage and sat gently on the side opposite the man. The carriage was really big enough. After the three of them got in, there was still some room for movement.
Thinking of being so plain on the outside, so gorgeous on the inside. The man ignored Xianxue, picked up the snacks on the table and handed them to the two little kids who had been staring at them for a long time. Xianxue never thought that he would have such thoughts about the children.
The carriage drove slowly, heading southwest against the afterglow of the setting sun.
It was late at night, and the fastest way to get to where she wanted to be was tomorrow morning. Xianxue looked at the two sleeping children in her arms, and then at the man in white who was breathing evenly and wondering if he was asleep, leaning on the carriage and hugging the two tightly.
The child slowly closed his eyes.
Suddenly, a strange breath approached, and Xianxue opened her eyes defensively. A pair of eyes as bright as obsidian were so close that she could even smell his breath. Looking at the cloak in his hand, Xianxue took it back and stayed there.
He held his vital hand, and a look of embarrassment flashed across his face.
What a little wild cat with bristling fur! The man shrank back and looked at Xianxue, who was no longer sleepy.
"What's your name?" the man asked lightly, as if he didn't care whether she would answer or not.
"Baili Xianxue." Xianxue said her name lightly.
There was a long silence in the carriage. She didn't need to ask his name, and it would be a lie if she asked, so she might as well not ask. It was such a long night! The morning light passed through the slight gap in the curtains and danced playfully in the carriage.
With the moving curves, Xianxue opened the car curtain and looked at the busy street, waking up the two little babies who were still sleeping.
"Liu Su." The man said to Xianxue, who was holding the gold and silver treasures in her arms.
Xianxue was slightly stunned. He told himself her name, which was tantamount to telling him his identity. It was indeed not much different from what he had imagined. "Liu" was the royal Xing clan of Western Qin. Although he did not know his exact identity,
But the royal relative could never leave. Spies from the Cangyue family appeared frequently along the way, but they did not dare to disturb the carriage. This royal relative was also a very important figure in Western Qin.
"Mr. Liu, we will meet again soon." After Xianxue finished speaking, she smiled. The confidence between her brows made Liu Su slightly stunned. Will we meet again? Deep in his finally calm heart, there was another
There was a faint expectation, but she didn't know how fast she said it would be.
Xianxue's figure was lost in the crowd, and Liu Su retreated into the carriage.
Cang Yuexian is the president of the Chamber of Commerce of the Five Countries. The Cang Yue family manages the trade flow among the five countries of Western Qin, Western Chu, Soochow, Shu, and Fusang. The kings of the five countries have to give him three points of thin noodles and five points.
The National Chamber of Commerce and the Five Nations are complementary to each other, and no one can do without the other. The triennial meeting of the Five Nations will not be held until next month. People sent by the Western Qin Dynasty have already arrived at the location of the Five Nations Chamber of Commerce. I don’t know the people sent by other countries.
Could it be in the Five Nations Chamber of Commerce City? Xianxue had some doubts in her mind. Now that she had taken the first step, there was no turning back.
Thinking of the man in the carriage again, it seemed that the people she would deal with in the future were not ordinary characters, but all of them had to be dealt with with great energy.
Xianxue found a small farmhouse to settle down temporarily, hired a few maids, and pretended to be a widowed woman. She stayed at home all day long, silently waiting for the day when the Chamber of Commerce would meet next month.
s arrival.
"Mother, what are the words written on it?" Jinbao pulled Yinbao and ran towards Xianxue who was sitting in front of the window in a daze. He was holding a picture album in his hand, which was similar to a modern comic book. The eyes of the two of them
It's all questions.
"It says hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix." Xianxue looked at it and responded with a smile. Jinbao Yinbao is more than three years old, but Douda doesn't know a word. It seems that she has to think about it.
These two little kids are asking for a wife.
"Mom, can you tell us what's painted on this?" Yinbao threw herself into Xianxue's arms and said coquettishly.
"Okay, come, sit on mother's lap." Xianxue lovingly picked up the two babies and gently told the story in the album. The sun shone on the mother and child, making them the most beautiful scenery in the world.
.
Time flies, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye. The envoys from the five countries who were supposed to leave three days ago are all staying in their palaces. This teahouse is the tallest building in the city. Standing on a high place, you can see the five countries.
The National Palace was swept under the radar. At this time, the most anxious person is undoubtedly Cang Yuexian! Enjoy the calm before the storm!
Walking aimlessly on the street, Xianxue was attracted by a man making a small clay figurine. He saw that he was surrounded by children. He lowered his head and was only looking at the man making a small clay figurine. He couldn't see the face clearly. It was a ball of colored clay.
After a while, a beautiful little person formed in his hands. Seeing him making so many children so happy, Xianxue walked towards this man uncontrollably.
