In ancient times, I just wanted to be a salted fish

Chapter 168 The Plan Failed

Liang Zhilan did not intend to alert the enemy, she wanted to take them by surprise. In such an occasion, letting everyone recognize her as a princess would not be conducive to smooth operations in the future.

So she turned her attention to the items on the shelves, each of which was a beautiful object she had never seen before.

She picked up a plastic sunflower hair clip and asked the maid to clip it on the edge of her hair, then looked at herself in front of the glass mirror.

It was the first time she saw her face clearly in the glass mirror. If you didn't look closely, she looked pretty good.

However, when she looked closely, she couldn't help but feel annoyed - she saw that her skin was a little rough and there were a few small pimples on her chin. This discovery made her mood instantly depressed!

She has everything except beauty. She can find ways to get other things, but how to get beauty? What can she do if her mother is not pretty?

She had no intention of browsing the accessories section on the second floor, so she turned around and led the three of them up to the third floor.

When Liang Zhilan stepped onto the third floor, she was shocked by the scene before her.

These were glass and porcelain products that she had never seen before. The entire third floor was filled with a luxurious atmosphere. It was simply a crystal world that made her extremely envious.

She roughly estimated in her mind the total value of the goods on the three floors, which must be over a million vehicles. This further strengthened her confidence in taking over the building.

Chen Daquan was a sharp-eyed man. When he saw Liang Zhilan's noble and dignified temperament, he knew that she was the wife of a wealthy aristocratic family.

Chen Daquan enthusiastically stepped forward to introduce various products to Liang Zhilan.

Liang Zhilan looked at the various glass tea sets and liked every one of them. These things would soon become her private property, and she was secretly happy in her heart. Her unhappy mood just now suddenly became cheerful.

Chen Daquan thought that this noble lady must be an important customer, but he did not expect that Liang Zhilan looked around, praised her a lot, and then went downstairs with two maids and a servant.

Chen Daquan has been busy for a while. This is how business works. No matter whether the customer buys or not, he has to greet them with a smile. It doesn't matter. Good products are easy to sell. There are many people rushing to buy them!

At this moment, Chen Ruotong accidentally glanced at Liang Zhilan who was going down to the second floor. Her heart skipped a beat, and her sixth sense told her that Liang Zhilan had come with ill intentions.

Liang Zhilan must have recognized her as the Fourth Young Master Chen. If she failed to kill her once, she would have to try a second time.

To Liang Zhilan, he was just a lowly commoner, and he must have planned to take her life and then seize her property.

However, things are very different now. She has the emperor as her backer and supports her.

I'm sure Liang Zhilan won't act rashly, but we still have to be on guard against her sneak attacks.

Liang Zhilan walked downstairs slowly. One of the maids paid five taels of silver at the counter on the second floor and hurriedly followed her.

When she stood on the carriage and was about to get in, she looked back at Huicui Building.

It didn't matter that she took a look. She clearly saw the big words on the two plaques of Huicui Building and Zhenpin Pavilion. Wasn't that the handwriting of the current emperor?

She rubbed her eyes and looked at the promotion letter, Xuan Yishu.

Xuanyi is the emperor's pen name, but few people know it because it is the name the emperor gave himself.

At the same time, she saw a familiar figure walking towards her, waving a folding fan. It was none other than the current emperor - Emperor Xuanwu!

Chen Ruotong followed Liang Zhilan downstairs. At this moment, she was standing at the door and just happened to see the emperor walking towards her with a folding fan in his hand and a smile on his face.

Chen Ruotong quickly stepped forward, bowed deeply, and said respectfully, "Brother Song, I am sorry for not welcoming you to our store today. Please forgive me, please come in..."

Emperor Xuanwu smiled and said, "Guchuan, this treasure pavilion is so luxurious and grand, there must be many treasures. Brother, you must go upstairs to take a look."

Afterwards, Chen Ruotong led the emperor into the Huicui Building in a servile manner.

Liang Zhilan's heart was pounding when she saw this, and she realized that her plan was going to fail. It seemed that this Fourth Master Chen and the Emperor were already acquainted, and with the Emperor backing him up, who would dare to come and make trouble?

At this moment, Liang Zhilan felt very upset. Her plan failed, and she felt extremely upset. Since she couldn't get the property, she would have to sacrifice her life...

Emperor Xuanwu took Xiao Lizi from the first floor to the third floor, and Chen Ruotong accompanied them to introduce various products.

These plastic and glass products opened the door to a new world for Emperor Xuanwu.

He found everything curious because apart from the palace, he had hardly ever been anywhere else, so seeing these objects was really new to him!

"Guchuan, I heard that all these goods of yours are shipped from overseas? I, uh, they are really rare things! But as far as I know, there are no such rare things overseas!" Emperor Xuanwu looked doubtful.

"Brother Song, what you call overseas and what I call overseas should not be the same place!

The overseas I'm talking about is much farther than the overseas you're talking about. It's not easy to ship goods across the ocean to Daliang, so it makes sense that these goods, no matter how big or small, are so expensive!"

Oh, really! You have to fill the hole you dug yourself. You need a hundred lies to cover up one lie!

Emperor Xuanwu seemed to believe Chen Ruotong's words, and nodded repeatedly, "Well, these items are really hard to come by! They are expensive for a reason, but for those princes and nobles, they are nothing. It's right to make money from them..."

"Brother Song, what you said makes sense!"

"Hey, Furukawa, what is this?"

"Brother Song is indeed very discerning. This is a double-layer glass thermos cup.

In the cold winter, tea can be brewed with it and remain warm for an hour. It is really an excellent heat preservation tool. It feels warm and pleasant, and it does not feel hot at all. It is very convenient and easy to use.

The only drawback is that it will break into pieces once it hits the ground, so it must be kept properly!" Chen Ruotong gently twisted the lid of the cup and showed it to Emperor Xuanwu.

"Oh? There is such a magical thing? This cup is not only elegant in appearance, but also practical!" Emperor Xuanwu took the cup and examined it intently.

"That's right, Brother Song. Look at the spiral twisting structure inside the lid and at the mouth of the bottle. It allows the lid to fit tightly onto the cup.

This design is both convenient and ingenious. Just open the bottle cap to drink the tea, and tighten the cap again after the tea is finished to ensure that the tea remains warm for a long time! "

"Well, it's really unique and original!"

"Since Brother Song loves this so much, I will present this thermos cup to you!"

"Hahahaha… this is just the first time, it won't happen again!"

Chen Ruotong wrapped the cup carefully and handed it to Xiao Lizi who was standing beside Emperor Xuanwu.

Chen Ruotong led Emperor Xuanwu to the reception room to sit down and drink cold drinks.

Chen Daquan brought a large glass of iced orange juice and three glasses and handed them to Xiao Lizi.

Xiao Lizi first tried half a cup, then showed a look of surprise and said to Emperor Xuanwu, "Sir, this cold drink is very refreshing and delicious!"

Xiao Lizi quickly poured a glass of iced orange juice for Emperor Xuanwu and Chen Ruotong.
