Cypress Boat Floating

Chapter 230 Shadow Squad

The organization that Ye Jianqing envisioned was actually very simple and clear, that is, to open an inn or restaurant in a prosperous place in the capital. Before she traveled through time, she had learned from novels and TV dramas that inns and restaurants are usually places where information is most frequently exchanged. Since traveling through time to this ancient world, she has always had such a dream: to build a lively inn or restaurant that can not only provide a place for people to rest, but also make it convenient for her to collect intelligence, and at the same time, it can also become a great place for dignitaries to entertain relatives and friends.

However, ideals are always beautiful, but reality is often cruel. When she proposed the first step of this plan, she encountered Lu Ci Qiu's rebuttal, which instantly shattered her beautiful idea.

"As for inns or restaurants, where do you want to open one? The most bustling and prosperous places in the capital are already overcrowded. Even if it is just an ordinary small inn, it can still make a lot of profit, so the store owner will naturally not easily transfer the property to you. Da'an has good weather and peace and prosperity. The people are happy to spend their money and feel at ease when traveling abroad, so they are more willing to come to the capital for sightseeing. Therefore, inns and restaurants can be found everywhere in the capital."

Lu Ci Qiu changed the subject, his tone full of curiosity and doubt: "In fact, if you really want to own a restaurant in the capital, it is not completely impossible, but the point is that the capital has already had many famous and highly praised restaurants under the influence of so many years. Under such circumstances, are you sure that you can make this restaurant rise and grow, and then build the intelligence network you expect? In addition, do you have enough ability and connections to invite various talented people to help you manage and maintain this restaurant?"

Ye Jianqing was heartbroken by these words, but he could do nothing about it. Who could he blame for all this? He could only blame himself for not doing enough market research in advance.

Ye Jianqing felt frustrated after her excitement was extinguished. Lu Ciqiu was right. She realized that it was inappropriate to act rashly without a detailed understanding of the ancient business situation. If she really wanted to open an inn or restaurant, she had neither excellent cooking skills nor good strategies. These were undoubtedly difficult problems.

Ye Jianqing was devastated by every word of Lu Ci Qiu. She lay on the table and hugged her head tightly with both hands. The reality was too cruel. She wanted to enter the mall without knowing the mall well. Everything Lu Ci Qiu said made sense. Ye Jianqing lay on the table dejectedly and said in a muffled voice: "Don't scold, don't scold, the child knows he is wrong."

Lu Ci Qiu, a good young man from Da'an, the Eighth Prince, had never heard of these Internet memes. Seeing Ye Jianqing's expression, he mistakenly thought that his words were too harsh and frightened the other party, so he quickly lowered his voice and gently comforted him: "Okay, okay, don't be anxious! Let's observe the current situation first. Of course, if you have any good ideas, we can also try to put them into practice! If you really want to open a restaurant, I think my second brother should have the relevant resources. Then I can go to my second brother to rent a store."

"No need." Ye Jianqing slowly stretched out a hand and waved it gently, his tone very low: "You are right, instead of wasting time thinking about these worthless things, it is better to focus on solving the current problem. It is true that I didn't think it through before, and I always wanted Zhixu and Chiyu to come to help, but in fact I was just wasting everyone's favors."

Lu Ci Qiu panicked and became a little overwhelmed. He could only comfort her in a panic: "It's not like that. In fact, you are also a very thoughtful person. It's just that you have been trapped in this Xianwang Mansion and have no chance to go out and see the outside world."

"Don't comfort me anymore." Ye Jianqing slowly raised her head. She has always been a person who is brave enough to admit her mistakes: "Wrong is wrong. In this case, let's deal with other problems first."

"Then..." Lu Ci Qiu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he was afraid that it would make Ye Jianqing even more sad, so he didn't dare to say anything more. However, at the same time, he had already silently remembered this matter in his heart.

"As the saying goes, 'there is always a way out when you reach the mountain'. The most urgent thing is to make sure both of us can continue to survive. There is no point in thinking too much about these things." After the voice fell, Ye Jianqing stood up and left in a heroic and proud manner. In fact, she knew in her heart that although she said this, if there was a chance, she would still think about getting one.

As night falls, the lights are on.

Moonlight shone through the window of the study onto the desk. Huaixi held a thick book and a delicate pen tightly in his hands. He was concentrating on registering the information of the six people whose names he had just given them. These six people had now entered the gate of the Xianwang Mansion and were receiving salaries from the Xianwang Mansion, so their names had to be registered in detail so that their salaries could be distributed according to regulations in the future.

The names people give themselves may be concise and clear, or have special meanings to themselves, or be full of poetry, but they all contain their expectations and aspirations for their future.

Huaixi listened carefully to every name and recorded them one by one in the roster.

When the last person finished reporting his name, Huai Xi smiled with satisfaction. He gently closed the list, as if he had completed an important mission. From this moment on, these people who were once nameless and replaced by numbers in the Dark Guard Camp finally had their own unique titles. They were no longer unknown, but individuals with flesh and blood and thoughts.

The process of registering names was not complicated or lengthy. Huaixi quickly and accurately recorded the names and then quietly left, leaving them a quiet space.

After being registered, they are officially members of the Xianwang Mansion. This first step into the mansion has been successfully resolved. From now on, the new master of these people will be Lu Ci Qiu, and no longer Lu Zhixing!

Next, these six people will form the only team in Prince Xian’s Palace and will be directly led by Ye Jianqing, following the orders given by Lu Ci Qiu.

As the captain of this team, Ye Jianqing has the right to name the team and has absolute command. So, she, full of the atmosphere of middle school, did not hesitate to name this team that looks like it is not easy to mess with "Shadow Team". As for the reason... don't ask, if you ask, she just loves it!

After the Shadow Team was formally established, their first mission was to track the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace and Liu Miao of Washe, and to sneak into the God's House in disguise. Their goal was very clear, that is, to dig deep into the dark side of these three parties hidden behind the sunshine, dig out their stories, expose their methods, and unswervingly implement the purpose of protecting Lu Zhixing and Concubine Shu.

The six people will then be divided into two groups, with two people forming a team. The six members carrying out the mission must always report the progress of the mission to Ye Jianqing, ensuring absolute openness and transparency, without any concealment or deception, and promptly convey relevant information to everyone in the team to ensure that no one is blocked from the news, and to ensure that they can promptly discover whether the three are related in detail.

Since the Shadow Team didn't know much about the God House and Liu Miao, Ye Jianqing, who had dealt with both parties, took the initiative to tell them the known information. At the same time, she also warned the two people who were about to go to the God House very seriously: "After entering the God House, you must observe carefully, and you must not act too abruptly, but you must not really be brainwashed by the God House. Any items provided by the God House must be brought back for inspection."

After a lot of earnest admonitions, Ye Jianqing finally let them go out to perform the mission. After all, the Shadow Team was not large in number, and if these two outstanding members met with an accident again, then she would be blamed for their death!

The six members of the Shadow Team did not show any resistance to the tasks assigned by Ye Jianqing, and Lu Ci Qiu was very satisfied with this.
