Chapter 178: Chapter 178 Prince Longevity (8)
“`
At the time, the original owner’s mother was still alive, and Prince Cheng was highly favored. Almost all the young girls mored to befriend her.
However, despite her young age, Cheng Xiao had already started to sow discord.
From that moment on, those girls no longer associated with the original owner, led by Miss Huang.
Now they probably see the state of the Prince Cheng Residence and want to recover some face by humiliating her.
It’s all petty games among young girls.
I refuse to y along with you.
Boring.
Unwilling to waste her time with them, Chuzheng walked straight down the stairs.
“Hey, Miss Cheng, I’m talking to you. Why aren’t you paying attention to people?”<div>
Miss Huang extended her delicate hand to block Chuzheng.
Chuzheng: “…”
The hand sure is pretty.
It wouldn’t be pretty if it were broken.
s.
So Chuzheng opted for kicking instead.
Miss Huang’s delicate body couldn’t withstand Chuzheng’s kick and was sent flying back into the room she had juste from.
Perfect!
Chuzheng calmly withdrew her foot and adjusted her skirts.
With a cold and detached expression on her delicate face, she said, “You’re blocking the way.”
Miss Huang’s friends stared at Chuzheng, dumbstruck.
Chuzheng passed calmly by them.
–
“Cheng Chuzheng, you stop right there!”
Miss Huang, along with her friends, charged down furiously, blocking the doorway before Chuzheng.
Chuzheng: “…” Is this ever going to end?!
The crowd at Juyuan Pavilion: “…”
What’s going on here?
Didn’t Prince Rong just make a scene, and now there’s another one?<div>
“Isn’t that the eldest Miss from Prince Cheng Residence?”
“Seems like it, right? That’s the granddaughter of Grand Tutor Huang, isn’t it?”
“Prince Cheng is dead; the Prince Cheng Residence must be having a hard time now, right?”
“Now, there’s only a mansion full of women left in Prince Cheng Residence, that’s miserable.”<div>
“Prince Cheng had quite a few treasures, though. Those bestowed by the previous Emperor shouldst them for several generations to use, right?”
“What’s the use of money without power.”
Whispers abounded all around.
Everyone’s suddenly interested in the fortunes of Prince Cheng Residence for the next few generations.
Miss Huang, clutching her still-sore abdomen, her eyes filled with rage, said, “Cheng Chuzheng, without your father, what are you now? You dare to hit me, I’m telling you, I’m not done with you today!”
“How are you not done?” Chuzheng was a bit curious, “Hit me?”
Miss Huang choked: “I’m not as vulgar as you!”
Miss Huang puffed out her chest, “Cheng Chuzheng, I’m telling you, from now on, whenever you see us, you must walk around, hear me?”
Chuzheng’s icy gaze fixed on Miss Huang as she asked seriously, “How should I walk around?”
Miss Huang pointed to Juyuan Pavilion, “For example, today we are at Juyuan Pavilion, so you cannot be here! Otherwise, you’ll regret it!”
[Main quest: Please purchase Juyuan Pavilion.]
Chuzheng: “…”
Bastard you dog thing!<div>
And all these idiots!
“Shopkeeper.” Chuzheng called out.
The shopkeeper, who had been enjoying the drama: “???”
These people were all daughters of official families, and he couldn’t afford to offend them, so he quickly came out from behind the counter.
“Miss Cheng, what can I do for you?”
In front of a puzzled Miss Huang, Chuzheng dered grandiosely, “Buy the building.”
“…”
“Miss Cheng, you must be joking. Juyuan Pavilion is not for sale,” the shopkeeper said, his scalp turning to steel.
“Have you gone mad, Cheng Chuzheng?” Miss Huangughed uncontrobly, “This is Juyuan Pavilion, a goldmine, do you think they would sell it to you?”
The food at Juyuan Pavilion is delicious, the environment is great, and the reputation is ster, making it one of the must-visit destinations in the Imperial City.
That Prince Rong and these daughters of noble families frequented the ce was evidence of its excellence.
Ignoring Miss Huang’s scorn, Chuzheng coolly took out a silver note and pped it on the table.
The shopkeeper nced at it.<div>
“Miss Cheng, I really can’t sell it.”
Chuzheng dropped the silver note.
“Miss Cheng…”
“`
Chuzheng continued toy out silver notes.
After all, the notes were printed by a Bastard, and it seemed that they had a way to deal with intion, so Chuzheng just kept spending.
The Shopkeeper was almost ready to kneel before Chuzheng.
Prince Cheng had died, so why was Miss Cheng from the Cheng Family still spending money like this?
Was she trying to bankrupt the Prince Cheng Residence?
“Sister Huang, has she gone mad?”
Miss Huang swallowed hard, “How would I know?”
“So many silver notes… ”
“How can she carry so many silver notes on her?”<div>
Chuzheng pped thest note onto the table.
She signaled the Shopkeeper toe closer. The Shopkeeper had seen his fair share of the world, but these many silver notes… it was enough to buy two or three of his stores!
“Miss Cheng, this store has been passed down from my ancestors…” the Shopkeeper said cautiously.
He couldn’t sell!
“I’ll double it, you still manage the store, I’ll be the boss, and the future profits are yours as well.”
The Shopkeeper’s eyes widened slightly.
Such a good deal?
Wasn’t this the same as not selling at all?
Spending money just to be a boss?
The conversation between Chuzheng and the Shopkeeper was not loud, and no one heard what they said. In the end, everyone just saw the Shopkeeper collect the silver notes.
Had it been agreed upon?
Chuzheng looked at Miss Huang, “Now, please walk around me.”
Miss Huang: “…”
The crowd: “…”
Pfft!
She bought Juyuan Pavilion just for that sentence?
The crowd felt that in their years living in the Imperial City, they had never seen such capricious behavior.
Even those profligate sons of nobility had never done so.
Miss Huang’s face turned ugly, pointing at Chuzheng and sputtering for quite a while.
Chuzheng stepped aside, signaling them to leave.
“Cheng Chuzheng, you’re mad!”
“I have money.”
“…”
Miss Huang was so angry her chest heaved dramatically, and her little face turned beet red.
She stamped her foot and ran toward the doorway, lifting her skirt.
“From now on, this group is not wee.”
Chuzheng’s voice reached Miss Huang’s ears urately.
Miss Huang ran even faster. The rest of the youngdies looked at each other for a moment before hastily following her out.
“Miss Cheng, will the Huang Family cause trouble?” the Shopkeeper asked, deeply worried about his new boss.
Prince Cheng Residence didn’t have a backer now…
Cheng·Big Boss·Sir·Chuzheng didn’t care, calmly stating, “If worsees to worst, they’ll smash the shop, and I’ll rebuild it.”
“…”
The way rich people talk is indeed different, huh.
Does the Prince Cheng Residence have a gold mine or what?
[Miss, let’s aim to be the leading business tycoon in the Imperial City! You’re the richest in the Imperial City!] King’s ount cheered Chuzheng on.
I! Don’t! Want! To!
–
Lv Zhu never expected that while she was out handling some errands, her Mistress would have acquired an entire building by the time she returned.
News of Chuzheng paying such a high price for Juyuan Pavilion quickly spread to the Prince Cheng Residence.
Princess Consort Cheng and Cheng Xiao were a bit stunned upon hearing the news.
Suspicious about Chuzheng’s money, Princess Consort Cheng went to the treasury to count it.
She found nothing missing.
Where then did Chuzheng get the money?
Juyuan Pavilion? How much money would that be!
Princess Consort Cheng wanted to ask Chuzheng but couldn’t even catch a glimpse of her; only Lv Zhu ryed a message: The Mistress is not seeing visitors.
Visitors…
In the eyes of Princess Consort Cheng, who saw herself as the mistress, she was nothing but a visitor?
Fortunately, the little rationality left in Princess Consort Cheng stopped her from demolishing Chuzheng’s yard.
Wait for the pce banquet…
After the pce banquet, if she can still return, she will deal with that wretched girl!!
No!
She won’te back!
