Chapter 1486: Drink Tea!
After the invitation for the wine tasting was sent out, the first person to come to the inn was Liu Yichen.
Ever since Lin Yuelan came to the capital, he had been held up by various matters and did not come to the capital in time.
When he heard that the second prince of the Black Cloud Kingdom, Xiao Jingrui, wanted to force Lin Yuelan to marry him, he was so angry that he immediately jumped up and scolded Xiao Jingrui for being delusional. His subordinates were dumbfounded.
This was the first time they had seen their wise and majestic master cursing like a shrew.
Liu Yichen didn't care what his subordinates thought. He was furious and couldn't calm down after hearing such news.
Back then, he was also curious and interested in Lin Yuelan. Later on, if it weren't for the fact that Lin Yuelan only had eyes for Jiang Zhennan, he would have wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h her away from Jiang Zhennan.
However, it was also his fault.
Thinking back to the beginning, when Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan hadn't directly confirmed their relations.h.i.+p, he should have made the first move to gain the upper hand. Why did he have to trouble himself to become sworn siblings with Lin Yuelan? Wouldn't that directly cut off the possibility of him between him and that girl?
He didn't know what had blinded him back then. If he wanted to find out Lin Yuelan's secret, he had to take it one step at a time. When the time came, he would naturally express his feelings and then get together.
However, everything did not go as he had planned.
First of all, he appeared later than Jiang Zhennan.
Secondly, Jiang Zhennan confessed to Lin Yuelan without so many twists and turns. If he liked her, he would just follow her directly, unlike him, who had to calculate even if he liked her. He knew very well that Lin Yuelan didn't like scheming over relations.h.i.+ps.
In the end, he didn't stay by Lin Yuelan's side. As for Jiang Zhennan, a Defender General, he seemed to be by Lin Yuelan's side all the time. This was already his greatest weakness.
Therefore, after Lin Yuelan chose Jiang Zhennan, he could only take a step back and be the real big brother.
Jiang Zhennan had tried to s.n.a.t.c.h Lin Yuelan away from him, but this Second Prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom had come out of nowhere and wanted Lin Yuelan as well. How could he not be angry?
After his anger subsided, Liu Yichen immediately gave an order to the shops of the Liu family in the Black Clouds Kingdom. Uh, to raise the prices of goods across the board. He had to earn enough money from the Black Clouds Kingdom. He would not sell them at a low price. Who asked their Second Prince to be so greedy?
When the shopkeepers heard this order, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but twitch. The prices of the Liu Family's shops were already the highest in the country. If it continued to be higher, wouldn't it be a little ridiculous? Would they lose customers?
However, they had no choice but to obey their boss's orders.
However, to the surprise of the shopkeepers, after raising the price, not only did they not lose customers, but they also gained more customers.
What was going on?
When Liu Yichen heard the news, he was stunned for a moment. After a while, he burst out laughing and called those people idiots. His subordinate's mouth twitched when he heard that. He wondered if his master was crazy with joy.
After Liu Yichen dealt with a few of the branch families who wanted to seize power at Willow Leaf Manor, he received Lin Yuelan's invitation. Immediately, he packed up and rushed to the capital. As for the finis.h.i.+ng touches, he left them to his subordinates.
If he had to do everything himself, then what was the point of hiring so many people?
As soon as Liu Yichen arrived at the inn, he narrowed his eyes slightly. His peach blossom eyes reflected a ray of light.
The Ni Lai Wo w.a.n.g Inn in the capital was much taller and more imposing than those in other cities.
Then, after he took the invitation card, he started to check in at the Inn.
As soon as he entered the inn, he asked the receptionist about Lin Yuelan's whereabouts.
Someone who could come with an invitation must be someone who had a good relations.h.i.+p with the boss.
Therefore, she didn't hide Lin Yuelan's whereabouts.
Liu Yichen supported himself with one hand on the counter and the other on his chin. He asked again," You mean my sister went shopping with two elderly people?!"
When the receptionist heard this person call the boss his sister, she immediately understood his ident.i.ty.
This person was Liu Yichen, the richest man in the world, the Great Royal Merchant.
The receptionist smiled and said," That's right! Young Master Liu, why don't you go upstairs and rest for a while? We'll get someone to inform you when the boss comes back!"
Liu Yichen thought about it and said," Alright!"
Anyway, he was very familiar with the capital, so there was no need for him to go anywhere.
After Liu Yichen went up to the sixth floor to rest, the front desk staff immediately gathered together and got into a lively mood.
