Chapter 112: The Second Prince's Aide (Third Update Today!)
What Qin Li and Bu Yunyan did not expect was that after Du Ziteng took the middle-aged man away, the group of girls in the store did not scare off and leave immediately. Instead, they all had excited smiles on their faces, which made the two people puzzled. After all, when these girls heard the three words "Dai Qing Bang" just now, their faces were pale with fear, almost fainting to the ground. How could there be such a big change in this short while?
However, the crazy rush of people pouring into the store to buy Dan medicine, and their discussions, made the two men realize that this Daqing Gang was not popular in the Imperial Capital Qinglong City.
"Hey, this shop owner is really powerful, even the master of the Green Gang dares not to mess with him, and he was beaten so badly, maybe there's no backing?"
"Exactly, I was blind before, I thought he was a dumb kid. But look at him, the arrogant and domineering Du Xiao Jiang Jun didn't even dare to fart, and he slunk away with his tail between his legs. Damn it, since I was born, I've never felt so relieved as today!"
"Haha, when you married your wife and spent the night in the bridal chamber, wasn't it more enjoyable than today?"
"What a relief! That day he was screaming in pain all the time, it even scared me..."
"Haha, Li Lao San, you dare say this, be careful I'll tell your wife!"
"Haha, alright alright, men outside aren't just looking for a good time with their mouths, right? Let's head to Hongfu Building next, brother will treat you to drinks!"
“……”
Qin Li and Bu Yunyan walked slowly up to the second floor under the gaze of fear from the crowd.
Baiyun smiled and said: "You're acting cool, but I'm afraid our steward is going to fall in love with you."
Qin Li was taken aback and shook his head, saying: "How could it be!"
"How could it not be? You didn't see the expression you just had, tsk... those eyes that wanted to devour me, so gentle and affectionate..." Bu Yunyan said with a drawn-out tone, then looked at Qin Li's helpless expression and burst out laughing.
Enough laughter, Bu Yunyan said quietly: "Young master, are you sure that by doing this, you can attract the attention of the Second Prince?"
Although they had never communicated directly with each other, how could the clever Bu Yunyan not see through this? Qin Li's approach seemed impulsive, but in fact it was equivalent to sending a signal to the Second Prince: I'm fighting with your arch-nemesis, aren't you coming over to join in?
Although I have never seen the legendary second prince, from various rumors, it can be found that he is a very thoughtful and atmospheric person. He competed with the eldest son of the Green Gang for women, was able to let go resolutely, and did not bother the other party afterwards, which shows that this person has a deep understanding of the situation.
Otherwise, if a prince really wants to take revenge on someone, let alone the eldest son of the Green Gang, even the leader of the Green Gang... cannot withstand that kind of pressure!
After all, the face of the prince is related to the face of the entire royal family! Although I don't know what the real reason for the second prince's letting go is, he is absolutely a person who can put it down!
Qin Li believed that it wouldn't be long before the second prince's people would definitely come!
Not relying on anything else, but relying on Qin Li's countless experiences in past and present lives, his understanding of human nature!
By the time it was closing at night, Qin Li and Bu Yunyan came down together. The manager, with a hint of shyness, looked at Qin Li with sparkling eyes and reported: "Young master, today we sold three-tenths more than in previous days..."
"Duoduo, you've reported to the wrong person......" Bùyún yān said with a straight face, then burst into loud laughter amidst the girl's shock and embarrassment.
At this time, a few light knocks on the door suddenly came from outside. The girls inside the store looked at each other, and their eyes were filled with fear. They lived and ate here, and after the excitement of the afternoon passed, they feared that the enemy would settle accounts after autumn, and this thought rushed to their minds again.
Qin Li smiled faintly and said, "Don't be afraid, I'll be here for the next few days. No one can harm you, I guarantee it!"
"Yes, young master, we all believe you!" The shop assistant named Doudou looked at Qin Li with a shy expression and said softly.
Qin Li walked over, opened the door, and saw a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance standing outside, wearing a coarse cotton-padded jacket, the kind of person who would be hard to pick out in a crowd.
"Are you a noble of the Great Qi State and a member of the Qin family, specifically Qin Wangzi?" The middle-aged man asked directly without any pleasantries.
As for the other party being able to find out his identity, Qin Li didn't think it was strange at all, because on the deed of this shop, it was written with Qin Li's name.
The Qin stood out with a loud and clear Qi State accent, his arrogant and violent demeanor proclaiming to the world that he was once of noble birth.
Qin Li nodded and said with narrowed eyes: "What kind of person are you?"
A middle-aged man smiled and said: "We are friends, not enemies. How could you, Master Qin, be such a reckless person, yet also be afraid that I might be unfavorable to you?"
Qin Li smiled faintly and stretched out his arm: "Please go upstairs!"
The shop under Qin Li's hand, the first floor is a business place, the second floor is a kitchen and a place for girls to live, as for the third floor, it has never been open to the outside world. In fact, the decoration of the third floor is the most luxurious!
This is actually a place Qin Li prepared for himself, and also used to entertain some guests.
"Sit." Qin Li pointed with his hand and sat down in the soft chair, seeing a hint of unusual color in the middle-aged man's eyes. Qin Li couldn't help but feel a little proud, because all of this was set up according to his own past hobbies, and it was absolutely one-of-a-kind in this world!
Of course, it won't be long before it sweeps through Qinglong City and then spreads throughout the entire continent, because these design concepts are really too advanced, too enjoyable.
However, this middle-aged man was obviously not inexperienced in the ways of the world. He stared blankly for a moment before laughing and saying: "Young Master Qin is indeed from a noble family, I've never heard such refined tone!"
"Hehe, you're overpraising me. May I ask, sir, what brings you to find Qin? Is there something on your mind?"
Bu Yunyan came up at this time, poured a pot of tea for the two, and then floated away. Although he had already changed his appearance, Bu Yunyan's face was still very beautiful and charming, but the middle-aged man didn't even lift his head once.
After the cloud and smoke dispersed, he smiled faintly and said: "I heard that Qin Gongzi severely taught a master of the Daqing Gang this afternoon, and also humiliated the third son of the Imperial Guard General's family, Du Zifeng, in the process?"
"Oh? Is that so?" Qin Li's face was full of surprise, not looking like he was pretending at all. He stared blankly for a moment before suddenly realizing: "Oh yeah! You're talking about those little rascals who came to my store looking for trouble? What? The leader of those little rascals is the young master of the General's household? Ha... Don't joke around, how could that kind of ill-mannered little rascal possibly be the young master of the General's household? You're simply insulting the General by saying he can't even educate his own children!"
Uh……I'm speechless! The middle-aged man stared blankly at the noble and refined young man in front of him, his eyes wide with shock. He was so stunned that he couldn't even tell if this guy was pretending to be stupid or if he really was a fool.
"Hmm, that kid won't really be the young master of General Zuo's household, will he?" Qin Li saw the middle-aged man completely stunned and chuckled: "Even if he is, what can be done? The general's child-rearing skills are poor, I'll just help him discipline him..."
That's it! A middle-aged man cursed loudly in his heart: "I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone as shameless as you. You're a humiliation to the general's son, and in the end, you're just trying to teach him a lesson on behalf of General Du. If General Du heard your words, wouldn't he be so angry that he'd turn his back on you?"
The middle-aged man's prepared speech was found to be completely useless in front of this young man! This made the middle-aged man involuntarily take a deep breath, and begin to re-examine Qin Li.
Beforehand, the Second Prince had instructed him that if Qin Li, a young nobleman of Great Qi with great power but little brains, was indeed a simple-minded youth who only cared about appearances, he should give him some sweet talk, such as making an empty promise, meaning "You can rest assured and work with the Green Gang and General Du Xiao, I, the Second Prince, will support you from behind! You want silver? You'll have silver. You want manpower? You'll have manpower."
If that's the case, the Second Prince wouldn't have wasted too much thought on Qin Li. And even if Qin Li wasn't a foolish youth, but just a mad dog driven to desperation, it would still be in line with the Second Prince's intentions - using such a mad dog to bite people is simply perfect.
When the time comes, anything can be pushed onto these fallen nobles of this great country, and they will be left spotless!
So to say, whether it was the second prince or this middle-aged man, at the beginning, they didn't have any good intentions and didn't think of putting Qin Li on an equal footing to discuss anything.
His mission was just to give Qin Li a glimmer of hope and then use him as a gun, as a mad dog, nothing more!
Now, the middle-aged man found that this seemingly reckless young man was not as naive as he thought. The way he dealt with the leader of the Green Gang and humiliated the young master of the Du family was actually intentional! Moreover, the middle-aged man could foresee that if he left like this today, tomorrow this kid would definitely spread rumors saying that the Second Prince was his backer!
The reason is too simple, no backstage, no backing, no background, who has eaten enough to dare to confront the Big Green Gang? The turmoil between the Big Green Gang and the Second Prince has just subsided for a short while!
Damn it, this kid must know about that thing! Looking at Qin Li's silly smile, the middle-aged man felt a surge of anger and wanted to punch that seemingly idiotic face.
Taking a deep breath, the middle-aged man's face broke into a smile once again, and with a warm expression, he said: "Let's get reacquainted, my name is Wang Chao, I'm an aide to the Second Prince, I'm older than you, so I'll take the liberty of calling you 'little brother' - won't you mind?"
If this gets out, it will definitely cause a huge stir. The aide to the Second Prince, Wang Chao, is actually being so polite to a fallen noble from another country... If word gets out, it'll shock everyone!
