Chapter 122: Celebrating the Lantern Festival, Chaoyang breaks the precept and enters the restaurant
After Qin Shaobai heard Xiaolan talk about Jin Zhaoning's situation, he told Xiaolan that he had to think about it carefully.
"Brother Qin, what are your plans?" Xiaolan brought a pot of tea. Seeing Qin Shaobai still looking depressed, she couldn't help but ask him.
"Xiaolan, tell me, would you like to let Zhaoning go back to Wangxianglou?"
Qin Shaobai looked at Xiaolan with inquiring eyes.
"But hasn't Wangxiang Tower become the place where Mr. Li's fourth son and his soldiers live?"
"That's easy to handle. I'll talk to Mr. Nanquan and find another place for his soldiers."
Qin Shaobai suddenly became excited: "Actually, Wangxiang Building belongs to Zhao Ning. When she comes back as her former boss, she will definitely not attract anyone's attention."
Xiaolan thought for a moment and said: "Brother Qin, do you really think there are no secrets in Wangxiang Tower?"
Qin Shaobai knew what Xiaolan was talking about, but after thinking about it for a long time, he still felt that Jin Zhaoning did not go to Wangxiang Tower to get some treasure map at all.
You must know that Jin Zhaoning and his master and apprentice have lived in Wangxiang Building for more than half a year. If Wangxiang Building really has a treasure map, they should have found it long ago.
Seeing that Qin Shaobai didn't speak, Xiaolan couldn't say anything more, so she said softly: "Brother Qin, do you want to hand over Wangxiang Tower to Miss Jin just like this?"
Qin Shaobai smiled: "There is a book in our hometown that talks about an effect called the halo effect. So, we are going to create a halo for Jin Zhaoning. With this halo, they will not care about what Zhaoning did.
Where did it come from, why did it come?”
Xiaolan looked at Qin Shaobai's bright face.
She wished so much that this light was for her, but it wasn't.
This light only appears when Qin Shaobai talks about Jin Zhaoning.
Suppressing the sadness in her heart, Xiaolan raised her shining eyes and asked, "Brother Qin, what do you need to pay attention to?"
"Recently, everyone seems to be very optimistic about my bidding activities. We might as well do another bidding, but this time, we have to place a hidden bid."
Xiaolan still didn't quite understand, and Qin Shaobai laughed: "Xiaolan, the so-called hidden bid is actually for us to reveal the details to Zhaoning and let her offer a price that is closest to our requirements."
Xiaolan exclaimed, looking at Qin Shaobai's shining eyes, she felt sour in her heart.
"Then I will find a few bosses to serve as foils for this hidden bid."
"Xiaolan, you are so thoughtful. In order to make this matter without any obstacles, we have to find someone we can trust."
Qin Shaobai spread out the paper and wrote several names on it.
"Xiaolan, just find these people and make your message clear."
Xiaolan took a look at the list above. They were all well-known merchants in Nanyang County.
If these people come to bid, who would dare to compete with other small households?
These people were all arranged to abandon the bid, so Wangxiang Building must fall into the hands of Jin Zhaoning.
Xiaolan stood downstairs in Wangxiang, watching Li Xiaolin arrange for his four sons to leave.
"Miss Xiaolan, is this girl from the Jin family back?"
Li Xiaolin actually sighed softly: "What does it mean that she is back now? You and Shaobai..."
Xiaolan didn't expect that Li Xiaolin was worried about this matter. Looking at Li Xiaolin's frank face, she couldn't help but laugh: "Mr. Li, Brother Qin and I are still a family. It's not because Miss Jin is back.
That’s what life is like.”
"That's what I said." Li Xiaolin sighed again, "Everyone could see the love Brother Shaobai had for the girl from the Jin family. We were really worried that Brother Shaobai would be trapped by love and forget his identity.
"
"Mr. Li, what does this mean?" Xiaolan was very puzzled.
"Forget it, this girl from the Jin family has a hard life too."
Is Jin Zhaoning's life miserable? She is now the Golden Flower Princess of the Great Jin Kingdom. Although she has not succeeded to the throne, she has been unanimously recognized by the Great Jin Kingdom from top to bottom.
What about me? Her parents are by her side, but neither of them has the courage to acknowledge her as their daughter.
Xiaolan felt her eyes heat up, and there was a hint of sadness.
"Miss Xiaolan, the bidding meeting you requested is almost ready. Do we really want to sell Wangxiang Building through bidding?"
"Yeah." Xiaolan nodded.
She thought about it for a long time on the road and finally understood the halo effect Qin Shaobai said.
Only when Jin Zhaoning appears in Nanyang County with a new identity of a wealthy and powerful country, the people of Nanyang County will not care about who this Jin Zhaoning is.
For Jin Zhaoning, Qin Shaobai was so attentive.
If that person were himself, would Qin Shaobai still be so dedicated?
"Have all the arrangements been made for those who want to be invited?" Xiaolan turned around and asked Li Xian.
Li Xian was very confident: "I found everyone Miss Xiaolan asked me to find, and I also told them that they were helping Miss Xiaolan this time, and Miss Xiaolan will definitely be grateful in the future."
"Li Xian, you act a bit like a policeman today."
Li Xian was so happy that he couldn't stop talking after being praised by Xiaolan.
That evening, a grand rental meeting was held in Wangxiang Building.
It is conceivable that Jin Zhaoning re-won Wangxiang Tower at the price closest to the tender price.
However, her current identity is no longer Jin Zhaoning, but a wealthy female boss from the Kingdom of Jin.
Thanks to Jin Zhaoning not wandering around the county on weekdays, the gorgeously dressed Jin Zhaoning appeared again, and no one recognized that this was the willful and unruly girl from the Jin family a few months ago.
Bi Zaiyu, Li Xiaolin, Song Ci, Qin Shaobai, and the Sixth Prince who had been staying in the self-prepared camp were all invited to Wangxiang Tower as distinguished guests to attend the opening ceremony of Wangxiang Tower.
Jin Zhaoning cooks himself and makes a lot of delicious food for everyone.
At the banquet, Jin Zhaoning toasted everyone, and when she walked to Bi Zaiyu, she deliberately paused for a few seconds.
When Bi met again, his expression was very natural. He took the wine she offered, drank it down in one gulp, and praised the food he had eaten today as the most delicious meal he had eaten since coming to Nanyang County.
It was almost noon, and the little girl serving the dishes began to serve the last dish.
Everyone opened the gold plate and found that there were seven colors of Lantern Festival inside: red, clear, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Each one was actually made of pure gold.
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other several times, and everyone secretly took a breath of air.
"This is a little bit of our master's wishes." Mei Mei said with a smile, and asked the little girl to give Lantern Festival points to everyone present. "Today happens to be the Lantern Festival, and the master said that he is very happy to celebrate the Lantern Festival with everyone. Please accept it."
"How could such a beautiful Lantern Festival be without me?"
Outside the door, crisp laughter came.
Everyone was stunned again and turned around.
The woman in fluttering red clothes standing in the courtyard of Wangxiang Tower is Princess Chaoyang, whom she has not seen for many days.
Everyone looked at each other, their hearts pounding.
You must know that Princess Chaoyang once swore never to enter the gate of Wangxiang Tower, no matter whose hands this Wangxiang Tower is in.
Tonight, she actually broke this oath. She must have encountered something earth-shattering.
