What Exactly Did You Do Wrong Today?
Everyone nodded in agreement, and in the end, more than 30 houses were reserved.
This is just the beginning; once these people move in, they will receive the best service.
Zhou Wanwan provides the best service. No matter who it is, as long as they come to these houses, the housekeepers will serve them wholeheartedly.
Of course, the butler wouldn't do chores for them.
However, the butler will definitely appear when there is a need.
For example, if you need food ordering, shopping, or cleaning services, you will need to pay extra.
Here, as long as you have money, you can enjoy royal treatment.
Princess Jianing looked at the female steward and said, "I want to eat grapes, lychees, watermelons, mangoes, and strawberries. Can you find them?"
These fruits, you probably couldn't find them even in the palace, right?
The housekeeper smiled slightly and said, "Of course, but these fruits are quite expensive; they will cost 10 taels of silver."
"How long will it take to get 10 taels of silver for her?"
Please wait a moment.
In about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the housekeeper came in carrying various kinds of fruit.
She asked softly, "Excuse me, miss, does this lychee need to be peeled?"
Princess Jianing looked at her and said, "Your service is too thoughtful! You even offer fruit peeling service?"
The housekeeper smiled slightly and said, "These fruits were bought from us, so naturally we'll serve them."
She put on disposable gloves and began to carefully cut the fruit.
Princess Jianing's lips twitched as she said:
"This is so thoughtful, much more thoughtful than my head Daya."
Why haven't my Daya arrived yet?
The housekeeper said softly:
Do you need to inquire about someone?
We can also provide this service, but it's expensive, costing 100 taels of silver.
If we can't find out the answer, the 100 taels of silver are guaranteed to be refunded.
Princess Jianing hesitated for a moment before saying, "Alright, give her 100 taels of silver. How much is the food you provide every day?"
The housekeeper pulled out a menu and said, "It depends on how much you want to eat. The cheapest dishes will cost just a few coins, while the most expensive ones can cost tens of thousands of taels."
Princess Jianing took a breath and said, "What kind of food costs tens of thousands of taels?"
The housekeeper smiled and said:
"It's naturally made with the best ingredients in the world, and cooked for you by the best chefs, so it's naturally expensive."
For the two of you, I would recommend the 5 tael silver set meal and the 10 tael silver set meal.
These two set meals are inexpensive and taste pretty good.
Shangguan Wan'er's lips twitched as she said, "Five taels of silver for a meal? Ten taels of silver? Are you robbing us?"
The housekeeper smiled and said:
You should take a look at the menu before drawing conclusions; our dishes are all custom-made.
Look at this beef. This beef is made from three-year-old oxen raised on the grasslands of the northern frontier. They grow up eating pasture and drinking mountain spring water, and are never fed bran or chaff.
The stall owner specifically selects the most valuable cuts of meat, such as ribs, pork belly, and chuck.
"You can't get much from a single cow, and the journey here is long; even wealthy families who want to order can't get a turn."
Princess Jianing looked at her description and said, "Give me 10 taels of silver to try first!"
"I'll arrange it for you right now."
After the steward left, Shangguan Wan'er said:
"Princess, don't you think there's something eerie about this place?"
They started pushing sales as soon as I walked in, and each time the purchase was more expensive than the last; something felt off.
Princess Jianing nodded and said, "Something does feel off, but don't you feel comfortable? How about some fruit? Is it delicious?"
Shangguan Wan'er quickly nodded and said:
"It's delicious! I've never eaten such delicious fruit before, and I find it very strange."
It would take some time and money to transport these fruits here!
But the fruit here seems to have been specially prepared.
Princess Jianing said calmly:
"These people have their own ways of doing things, why worry about so much? As long as we eat and drink well, that's all that matters."
As for the information she mentioned, it would be best if I could find out, but if I couldn't, she would have to give me 100 taels of silver.
Anyway, we're not losing out. We don't need to do anything to have food to eat, so why worry about so much?
Shangguan Wan'er nodded and said, "I heard that Zhou Wanwan is the city lord of Yanmen Pass..."
Princess Jianing said while eating a mango:
Do you really think someone like her can become the city lord?
She was merely a figurehead city lord; the real city lord was Old Master Xie.
"Oh, I see!"
Xie Cheng'en was furious; he had lost so much money, he was definitely not willing to accept it!
Having found out where Zhou Wanwan lived early in the morning, they led a group of people over.
He kicked the door open and shouted, "Zhou Wanwan, get out here!"
Zhou Wanwan opened the door and looked at Xie Cheng'en, saying, "Xie Cheng'en, what do you want by bringing so many people to my City Lord's Mansion?"
Xie Cheng'en snorted coldly:
"Does he really think he's the city lord? Just because he lives in the city lord's mansion doesn't make him the city lord!"
Zhou Wanwan, you cheated last night. I've already checked, that arena is yours. You're a liar.
Zhou Wanwan yawned and said:
Xie Cheng'en, are you ever going to stop?
Yesterday's events have been made very clear. I didn't do anything wrong. As for why those horses were so obedient?
I'm not really sure either. Maybe I'm just lucky, or maybe I'm just very charming.
Xie Cheng'en, his face turning ashen with rage, shouted, "Do you believe I'll tear you apart? You brat, I'll beat you to death today!"
After saying that, Xie Cheng'en prepared to take action.
But before he could make a move, he saw Old Master Xie rush over and slap Xie Cheng'en across the face, saying:
"You unfilial son! I sent you to the border to gain experience, but you've been hiding like a coward."
Now you're risking your life for treasure, you little bastard, I'm going to beat you to death today!
Xie Cheng'en covered his head and said aggrievedly, "Grandpa, open your eyes and look! It's me, Xie Cheng'en! Your most beloved grandson!"
Old General Xie was furious. He grabbed the man's hair and kicked him several times.
"I'm kicking you, you troublemaking brat."
Let me tell you, if you dare to lay a finger on Wanwan today, I'll break your legs.
Kneel down.
Xie Cheng'en knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes. He wasn't afraid of anyone except his grandfather, because he had beaten him a lot since he was a child.
Xie Cheng'en sneered:
"Where should you kneel? Kneel in front of Wanwan and think carefully about what you did wrong today."
If you can't figure it out, don't think about it today.
Xie Cheng'en lowered his head, tears streaming down his face.
When the others tried to leave, Zhou Wanwan said with a smile, "Since you're here, don't leave. I happen to have something to discuss with you!"
Those who came with Xie Cheng'en were all wealthy merchants. Xie Cheng'en genuinely enjoyed doing business and dealing with business people.
Those wealthy merchants from Jiangnan, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Shanxi, and Anhui all turned around and knelt down with a thud.
