"Madam, most of the merchants in this city are from the Nangong Sect Leader. The reason why this city is called Beiyang City has a certain relationship with it." The man said without hesitation.
"Oh?!" Lin Huayan did not deny his identity, but just found it incredible that Nangong Qing had prepared a refuge for himself over the years, right?!
This Beiyang City should be regarded as the city closest to the capital. Even if something happens in the future, Nangong Qing will easily escape here. People in the court must think that Nangong Qing will not hide so close to the capital.
Lin Huayan gave a thumbs up to the shopkeeper's tree.
The shopkeeper calmly stretched out his thumb and little finger of both hands and touched them lightly.
Lin Huayan was immediately relieved. This kind of gesture was one of the ways for the Nangong family to identify the true strength of spies in the dark. Only the dead men of the Nangong family knew how to gesture.
The smile on Lin Huayan's face remained unchanged. He just said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, please stop pestering me. I am just a divorced woman."
The shopkeeper seemed to be joking and replied: "I don't know, can you give me my wife's name?!"
"Li Jiqing." Lin Huayan replied without thinking: "I came from the south and was just divorced by my husband.
"Good name, really a good name!" the shopkeeper complimented: "My name is Qin Tingyu. If Mrs. Li has anything to do in the future, she must ask me, the shopkeeper, for help!"
After saying that, he stood up and returned to the counter.
A mysterious smile appeared on Lin Huayan's face. In a short while, his identity should be spread throughout the city.
There were quite a few people sitting in the shop having breakfast, all chattering away about the latest gossip, the gossips between the neighbors, and the latest news from the capital.
If you can know so many things, then you can at least know the progress of some things.
Suddenly, a medium-sized idea planted a seed in Lin Huayan's mind, to open a restaurant and a tavern in a place with the largest population and the most complex personnel structure!
Lin Huayan was startled by his own thoughts, but then he began to analyze it carefully.
Although running a tavern is tiring, one's identity can be well concealed. No drunkard will ask about such messy things as when he was born and when he was divorced. On the contrary, the larger the population, the more information can be provided.
The breakfast ordered was served. Lin Huayan urged Xiaodie: "You're done eating in a while, come with me for a walk outside!"
Xiaodie nodded hurriedly and continued to eat quickly without saying anything.
After the two of them finished eating, Lin Huayan ran to the counter and asked the shopkeeper for a map of Beiyang City. Although the map was not standard, it could help people know where to go.
Lin Huayan took a look at the street in front of the Fireworks Lane, called Linqing Street. Going back there were rows of brothels, in front was the dock, and on the left and right were escort agencies and government offices.
What's not to say about such a great location!
Lin Huayan packed up his money and asked for a sedan with Xiaodie. The two of them asked Qin Tingyu, the shopkeeper, to find the sedan and took it to Linqing Street together.
Linqing Street happens to be a small commercial street, so doing business here is the best choice.
