120,My neighbor is Her Royal Highness the Princess
According to the address on the house deed, Zhou Shu found Yuci’s mansion of the county man.
Unknowingly, he actually owned two houses in the capital.
This is something I never dared to think about in my previous life.
In his previous life, how could he dare to think that someone would give him a house?
Even if it’s not too beautiful to think about.
"This position, placed in the imperial capital for a lifetime, must be considered a link, right?"
Zhou Shu stood at the gate and marveled.
It is only one street away from the imperial palace, so it is definitely the most central location in Chang'an City.
The emperor is very generous. This mansion looks bigger than the one Mi Ziwen gave him, and the location is better.
This location, this area, completely belongs to the kind of luxury goods that you can't afford when you are born, and you will never be able to afford them in your lifetime, unless - mutation...
"We can be considered to have entered the upper class now."
Zhou Shu joked to himself, a mansion in the center of the imperial capital is beautiful!
Even if he wanted to be a house slave in his previous life, Zhou Shu's feeling for a mansion was much greater than that of a noble title.
He didn't care that much about the title of Baron.
Opening the door with the key, Zhou Shu walked into the mansion.
This mansion is very beautifully built, with pavilions, pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings. Even with Zhou Shu's eyes, there are no faults.
The only drawback is that it may be too big...
Just maintaining such a large mansion will cost a lot of money.
"Fortunately, I just won a large sum of money from Shen Yue. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare live in this mansion."
Zhou Shu said to himself.
The residence Mi Ziwen presented as a gift came with a number of servants, but this county man's residence did not have such a good thing.
"Speaking of which, the boy surnamed Shen hasn't sent me the money yet. Doesn't he want to default on the bill? I'll have to urge him later!"
Zhou Shu muttered.
Soon, he took a tour of the mansion.
He only has two words for this mansion.
That’s satisfaction!
When I get the ten thousand taels of gold, I will move here. The conditions here are better than the house that Yonzi On gave me. It is so close to the palace, and there will be no bold and reckless people to cause trouble... p>
Zhou Shu thought about it, locked the door and prepared to leave.
Although this mansion is nice, it is not suitable for living in now. We still need to hire some servants and buy some daily necessities, right?
"Da Sikong? Why are you here?"
Zhou Shu was thinking about how to buy things for his new home as he walked out of the city.
Suddenly, he looked up and saw a familiar figure.
Yin Wuyou stood on a white jade step, his eyes were level with Zhou Shu's, and he said very calmly, "This is my home. Is it strange that I am here?"
"Your home?"
Zhou Shu raised his head somewhat unexpectedly. Under the sunlight, the plaque on the door behind Yin Wuyou showed several large characters flying like dragons and phoenixes.
Princess Mansion!
Nani?
Next door to the county man’s mansion is the princess’s mansion?
Have you and Yin Wuyou become neighbors?
Zhou Shu's face darkened. Your Highness the Princess likes to take things without paying for them. Now that we are neighbors, she won't go to my house every now and then to get weapons, right?
Well! It’s possible!
I must add more locks to the warehouse later!
Zhou Shu was wary.
Yin Wuyou noticed Zhou Shu's gaze and felt a little unhappy. What is this look?
Be prepared?
What do you mean by guarding against this princess?
In order to get this mansion for you, this princess even resorted to coquettish and cute ways. I don’t expect you to be grateful to me, so you can’t do this, right?
"What are you going to do?"
Yin Wuyou raised his head proudly and said, "Shouldn't you be working in the workshop now? Don't think that because you are the head of the workshop, you don't have to be on duty!"
Zhou Shu: "..."
She is indeed a black-hearted princess, she knows how to oppress people!
Learn from your father and see how generous he is!
It’s a baron again, and it’s a mansion again!
You only know how to make people work, but you look like a fairy...
Zhou Shu complained in his heart.
But with a respectful look on his face, he said, "Reporting to Da Sikong, this subordinate is not deliberately lazy. He went to the city to find inspiration for making soldiers."
"Inspiration for casting soldiers?"
Yin Wuyou was a little confused.
"Forging weapons is not something done behind closed doors. Some sages have said that the emergence of a weapon requires 99% sweat and 1% inspiration, and this 1% inspiration is crucial.
”
"My workshop zero is responsible for developing new weapons. If I sit in the workshop all day, it will only limit my thinking."
"So I have to go out often and let the world and all things stimulate my inspiration. Only in this way can I develop more new weapons."
"In the terminology of our weapon-making industry, this is called Cai Feng——"
Yin Wuyou looked suspicious, "Caifeng? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"Da Sikong, you are so high and mighty that you have never heard of such a trivial matter."
Zhou Shu said nonsensically, "This is how I developed those standard long knives before."
"Da Sikong, developing weapons requires brains, not how long I have been working in the workshop."
Yin Wuyou nodded as if he understood, "I guess you have some sense. Where are you going to collect information now? I happen to have nothing to do, so I will go with you to see something. Since I am the great Sikong of the Forging Department, then
You also need to know more about the weapons casting industry, otherwise, how can you lead the weapons casting department well?"
Zhou Shu: "..."
……
"Are you here to collect stories?"
Outside Chang'an Chengbei City Gate, a fairy-like man and woman walked side by side on the official road.
Yin Wuyou looked at Zhou Shu suspiciously.
An hour ago, she followed Zhou Shu while wandering aimlessly in the city. She didn't know if Zhou Shu had found inspiration. Anyway, her stomach was almost full——
Filled with street snacks——
After walking around the city for a long time, he is now out of the city again!
"Da Sikong, I've told you a long time ago that when collecting styles, you just follow your feelings and have no purpose. Maybe I got the idea after eating a candied haws in the city, or maybe I saw someone like you, Da Sikong.
The inspiration came from the beautiful girl.”
"Even a fallen leaf may trigger my inspiration."
"This is something that makes no sense, just like an epiphany in martial arts."
Zhou Shu is talking nonsense.
Yin Wuyou's pretty face blushed slightly, and she nodded thoughtfully. She did understand a little about the sudden enlightenment in martial arts, but it was indeed something that could not be explained.
"Have you found inspiration now?"
Yin Wuyou asked.
"No!"
Zhou Shu said confidently.
How can it be so easy to develop new weapons?
It’s not surprising that it takes a year and a half to find inspiration.
Yin Wuyou didn't have any doubts and just said "Oh."
"There is an inn in front of you. The envoys of the Wei Dynasty live here. You are not here to see them, are you?"
Yin Wuyou said a little warily. She was secretly glad that she followed him today.
Those people in the Wei Dynasty are so determined to recruit Zhou Shu.
I can't let Zhou Shu meet with them alone!
"If you don't tell me, I've forgotten that the guy named Shen still owes me money. Now that I'm here, let's go and urge him."
Zhou Shu said casually.
"By the way, Da Sikong, why do Wei's envoys live outside the city? Isn't this rude to me, Da Xia?"
Zhou Shu asked curiously.
No matter what the relationship is between two countries, there are always some concerns in diplomatic situations.
When a delegation comes to visit, they are not even allowed to enter the city?
"There is also a posthouse in the city, so they have to dare to stay there."
Yin Wuyou snorted coldly.
There is a Wei State Master with a first-class martial arts in the Wei mission. When he enters the city, he has to worry about whether Daxia will trap him and kill him.
In addition, Daxia will also worry about whether he will wreak havoc after entering the city.
After all, the first-level martial arts is almost transcendent, and the threat it brings is too great.
In the same way, if he was really sure of besieging the Wei Imperial Master, Daxia would do it even if he risked his face.
However, it is not easy to kill someone with a first-level martial arts. If you are not completely sure, it is best not to take action, otherwise the revenge of a first-level martial artist will be very terrifying.
Therefore, there was a tacit understanding between the two parties. Although the Great Wei Imperial Master came to Daxia, he has been living in a post station outside the city.
In the wide space outside the city, no one can kill a first-level martial artist who wants to escape. At least, no one in Daxia can do it.
"You said if we just go to your door to collect debts, they won't beat us, right?"
Zhou Shu said.
Yin Wuyou looked disdainful, "They dare! If they dare to touch you, I, the princess, will kill them!"
Her Highness the Princess has a domineering face, which does not match her delicate face. However, this contrast gives her a different kind of charm.
Zhou Shu's eyes widened when he saw it.
Noticing Zhou Shu's expression, Yin Wuyou's pretty face turned red and turned her head unconsciously.
"No, this is our Daxia territory. If they dare to take action, I guarantee that they will not be able to eat and walk around."
Yin Wuyou changed his name to cover up his unnaturalness.
Zhou Shu was just looking for something to say. After all, he was with the leader and couldn't make the atmosphere too awkward, right?
Is he afraid that the Wei envoy will take action?
If the Wei envoy really dared to take action, he would like to try to see if he could get back the three heaven-grade weapons that he left there last time!
Zhou Shu still doesn’t know that the Great Wei State Master Xiao Shunzhi only grabbed one handful, and the other two have now fallen into the hands of Emperor Feng of the Yuan Dynasty.
As the two talked, they got closer and closer to the station.
When he was still a hundred feet away from the inn, he heard a sharp whistle. A moment later, Shen Yue led a few people out of the door.
Obviously, they have placed sentinels around.
"Brother Shen, I haven't seen you for a long time." As soon as they met, Zhou Shu said enthusiastically, "I miss you so much. One day without seeing you is like three autumns."
Shen Yue was taken aback by Zhou Shu's enthusiasm. What did he mean?
Do I have this kind of friendship with him?
Yin Wuyou frowned. Are Zhou Shu and Shen Yue really friends? They shouldn't be.
"Your Highness the Princess!"
Shen Yue ignored Zhou Shu at all. How could a small workshop leader deserve to be greeted by himself?
So what if you win a game temporarily? You’re not that little workshop leader!
Shen Yue thought contemptuously in his heart, looked at Yin Wuyou and said, "Her Royal Highness the Princess is here, what's the matter?"
The Wei mission has a fixed process for negotiating with Daxia. In theory, it has nothing to do with Yin Wuyou.
He was a little strange. The previous discussion had come to an end, and now both sides were waiting for the announcement of the standard weapon spectrum. What did Yin Wuyou want to do when he came here at this time?
"I didn't come here, it was him who wanted to find something for you."
Yin Wuyou pointed at Zhou Shu and said, "I just came with him."
Yin Wuyou took the initiative to take a step back and did not overshadow the guest.
Shen Yue frowned and glanced at Zhou Shu, and said coldly, "Your Highness, this envoy is the deputy envoy of the Wei Dynasty. Your country wants a ninth-grade Sesame Officer to talk to me?"
When he was discussing the art of weapon casting, he was surrendering his status. Otherwise, how could a mere weapon-casting apprentice, even the master of the workshop, be qualified to stand in front of him?
After losing a round and filled with hatred for Zhou Shu, Shen Yue seized the opportunity. How could he give Zhou Shu a good face?
"Shen, are you going to default on your debt?"
Zhou Shu said angrily.
Shen Yue held his head high and disdained to talk to Zhou Shu.
"Your Highness Princess, if something happens to Daxia, please arrange for someone with equal status to come over. Don't let all the cats and dogs come here and bark!"
"Who's barking?"
Zhou Shudao.
"A cat and a dog——"
Shen Yue said casually.
"Oh, it turns out you are a cat and a dog."
Zhou Shudao.
Shen Yue's face was gloomy. Has he ever been exposed to this kind of insulting method in the market?
He Shen Yue is also a person of great status in the Wei Dynasty!
"Deputy Ambassador Shen, if I remember correctly, your official position in Wei was from the fifth rank, right?"
Yin Wuyou said coldly.
From the fifth rank, it is roughly equivalent to the deputy department level in Zhou Shu's previous life on earth, and the deputy department level in his twenties. If this were placed on earth, it would definitely be a big deal.
"Zhou Shu is a man from my Daxia Founding County. He is equivalent to the fifth rank. In terms of official position alone, he is half a rank higher than you!"
"If the identities are not equal, it means your identity is not enough!"
Yin Wuyou said unceremoniously.
The expression on Shen Yue's high head froze.
Has the person named Zhou been knighted?
When did this happen?
Why didn't he get the message?
"Da Sikong, low-key, low-key."
Zhou Shu said reservedly, "It's just a little baron. Don't show it to embarrass me. I don't know if you think I haven't seen the world."
"That's right, he's just a little baron, and he's really not worthy of you."
Yin Wuyou nodded in agreement.
Zhou Shu didn't expect that Yin Wuyou had the talent for praise, so he secretly gave Yin Wuyou a thumbs up, and then looked at Shen Yue.
"Shen, although my official position is slightly higher than yours, we are not from the same country, and I am not using my power to oppress others."
Zhou Shu said, "It's time to repay the debt you owe me, right? How many days has it been delayed?"
"If you really can't get it out, just write me an IOU first. As a man, you don't even have this little gambling product, right?"
"If you really don't want the face, that's fine. It's okay if I don't want the money. Not only don't I want it, but I'll help you publicize it for free so that no one will be fooled by you in the future."
"If you can't afford to lose, don't gamble. No one is forcing you. You say you want skills but not skills, and you want gambling products but not gambling products. Why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf all day long?"
