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

After leaving Zhang's house, Qiao Zien returned to Chen's house. Chen Ruotong waited for news in Qiao Zien's bedroom.

Qiao Zien entered the room and saw Chen Ruotong sleeping on the table, so she carefully took out her gown and put it on her.

Seeing Chen Ruotong sleeping soundly, Qiao Zien smiled indulgently, sat opposite her, and looked at her cute sleeping posture.

Qiao Zien felt that this young boy was glowing, full of energy and vitality. He loved to think, was good at business, loved money, and was sometimes lazy. He was really a naughty and cute little boy!

Just as Qiao Zien was staring at Chen Ruotong, Chen Ruotong woke up, slowly raised her head, and drool dripped onto the table. Damn, this is too embarrassing. Chen Ruotong looked at Qiao Zien awkwardly, and immediately wiped the saliva from the corners of her mouth and the table with her sleeve and said, "You're back, look at me, I accidentally slept here!"

Qiao Zien couldn't help laughing: "Well, I'm back. Did I disturb your sweet dream?"

"Zi En, stop teasing me and talk about business!" Chen Ruotong rolled her eyes at him.

"I did deliver the letter, but outside Zhang's house, I met a master. You can't guess who he is?" Qiao Zien said slowly, shaking his head.

Chen Ruotong said anxiously: "Don't keep us in suspense, just tell us now, why are you waiting so anxiously!"

"I met Zhen Yu, the man in black who sneaked into Wan's house last night. I exchanged more than twenty moves with him. He is also a master, and his skills are not inferior to mine. However, I was almost injured by him because of my small body. I think he knew who I was when I took out the Embroidered Spring Blade, but he didn't tell me his identity because he wanted to test my martial arts. Later, when I was about to raise my gun to shoot, he took off his mask."

Chen Ruotong lowered her head, rubbed her chin with her fingers, and said to herself, "He is young and handsome, has great kung fu skills, and can come and go freely in Wan's house. He specializes in stealing letters and the like, and does not take the property in the house. Could it be the chivalrous thief Jia Fei? Zhang Yishun once said that Jia Fei might be a spy from above, specializing in collecting letters and criminal evidence from corrupt officials. Zhen Yu, Jia Fei, Zhen Jia, Yu Fei! Oh my god, Zhen Yu is 100% Jia Fei, hahahaha..."

Qiao Zien agreed, "Your analysis makes sense. It seems that Zhen Yu is the prototype of Jia Fei in my novel. Gu Chuan, you can be a detective now. Your reasoning ability is quite strong!"

"Hehehe... Just average, third in the country. With my IQ, I'm only suitable for transplanting rice seedlings. I can't play brain-burning games!" Chen Ruotong waved her hands proudly.

Qiao Zien ignored his scholarly image and bent over with laughter.

Chen Ruotong immediately stopped laughing and said, "Oh no, doesn't that mean Zhen Yu knows that you've been to the tunnel at Wan's house?"

Qiao Zien said calmly, "What are you afraid of? They don't know there is treasure in the tunnel. You searched it so thoroughly that not even a copper coin was left. What can they know? Even if they catch Wan Caizhu and force him to reveal that there is treasure in the tunnel, they didn't see us taking it. If we don't admit it, what can they do to us?"

Chen Ruotong smiled foolishly and said, "Yeah, this is something only God and the earth know about. You and I know about it! I feel relieved, relieved, I can sleep well now! Hehehe..."

Qiao Zien said: "The government has intervened in the affairs of Mr. Wan, so it is none of our business. We can do what we need to do with peace of mind. We just need to wait for the final news on how to deal with it. We should rest now."

Chen Ruotong was about to walk out of the room, but turned back and said, "Well, the government is more anxious than us about the collusion between the rich man Wan and the regent. By the way, to reward you for successfully completing the task, I'll give you a bottle of Coke and a roast chicken. Enjoy the food, Brother Zien. Brother Guchuan has to go to bed, good night!"

Chen Ruotong hummed a little tune and went back to her room to sleep.

Qiao Zien sat down to enjoy the food. He was really hungry. He wanted to replenish his energy and then have a good sleep!

A new day has begun. Chen Ruotong and Qiao Zien got themselves ready, sat together and quickly ate some instant noodles, then went back to school or work, each doing their own thing.

Chen Ruotong first came to Zhenpin Pavilion to replenish the missing goods, and then went to Huicui Building to see how Chen Sanhe’s craftsmanship was progressing.

Chen Sanhe has officially become Qiu's apprentice and is studying diligently. Qiu is very satisfied with this apprentice and praises him for his intelligence, high comprehension and quick understanding. Zhang Ruixi also goes to Huicuilou to learn from time to time and sometimes helps with the sales and accounting. She is a very qualified boss lady.

Chen Ruotong took out some old gold and silver jewelry from the space and asked the silversmiths to melt them down and re-make new jewelry. Everything was going according to plan, and the business was prosperous and stable.

Chen Ruotong was very happy as her career in ancient times was developing well.

At this time, Zhou Qian drove a carriage to the entrance of Huicuilou and took down several baskets of vegetables and a large basket of eggs and duck eggs from the carriage. Then he asked the shop assistant to send these to the kitchen. Now Zhenpin Pavilion and Huicuilou cook separately, and Huicuilou has hired a new cook, and the food she cooks tastes good.

Zhou Qian was responsible for bringing some meat, vegetables and eggs from the farm every morning to supply ingredients for the two stores.

Zhou Qian came into the store to ask for a cup of tea. Chen Ruotong was also drinking tea leisurely in the living room at this time.

Zhou Qian poured Chen Ruotong a cup of tea and said, "Fourth Master, the farm is not busy anymore. Do you think I can come over to help you? This way you won't be so busy every day without any time to rest!"

Chen Ruotong knew that Zhou Qian wanted to work by her side. Zhou Qian should be a very qualified secretary and assistant. So she said, "Okay, you finish this month, and then recommend someone to replace you, and then you can come to my side."

Zhou Qian was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He didn't know how to express himself, and he was speechless. He finally got his wish and came to be an assistant to his idol. How happy and proud he must be to work for such a handsome and kind idol every day!

Before Zhou Qian said goodbye and left the reception room, Zhen Yu walked in and said with a smile, "Zhen is here to have a cup of tea. Do you mind, Mr. Four?"

Chen Ruotong stood up and saluted, "Hello, Jia Fei!"

Zhen Yu just answered "Okay!" in a very natural and casual manner, and then he was stunned on the spot.

Chen Ruotong and Zhou Qian were also stunned.

Chen Ruotong thought to herself: See, my guess was right, he admitted it himself, so just like that, I greeted him very naturally and easily, and others didn’t put their guard up and answered casually, and Lord Zhen was also fooled by me, hahahaha…

Zhen Yu reacted immediately. Since others had already guessed it, there was no need for him to continue pretending, so he said, "Mr. Chen Si is indeed smart. Nothing can be hidden from you!"

The legend became reality, but it hit Zhou Qian hard. He couldn't believe that the idol he admired so much was someone else. His heart was broken, and he was so sad! No, he felt that the Fourth Master Chen should be Jia Fei. It didn't matter whether this Lord Zhen was or not. Anyway, he had decided on the Fourth Master Chen, and no one else would be in his eyes!
