Lock and secure

A group of beggars were laughing cunningly. Everyone loved to play interesting games, and they could get money for playing games!

The next morning, every household received a portrait of Princess Yong'an, Luo Yao. The intersection of several streets in the city was crowded with people, and a gust of wind blew over the portrait that was pressing on the top of a tall building.

Nearly a thousand portraits of the princess fell.

"Who is this person?!" Someone who had never seen Luo Yao picked up the portrait.

"You don't even know this? The person depicted in this painting is none other than the young master who provides disaster relief!"

"Princess Yong'an! The young master who provided disaster relief is actually the descendant of the Duke's Mansion! The Duke's eldest grandson!"

"Without the princess, we would have been plunged into war long ago. You don't know how many disaster victims came to Khan Province this year!"

"I heard that the princess is an immortal who has descended to earth and has foresight. She knew that the Great Cheng Kingdom was about to suffer disaster, so she came here specifically to collect grain for disaster relief and bring us prosperity!"

"Immortal Princess, I want to pick up a few more to take home as offerings! Don't fight with me!"

The crowd was in an uproar, and the portraits that had fallen to the ground were snatched up by the people, with everyone holding a portrait of the fairy princess.

On the balcony of a restaurant, twenty-year-old Luo Yao, wearing a white gauze hat, leaned on the railing and watched the excited people downstairs.

"Since you want me to be famous, I'll help you. Now everyone in the country knows me. If you dare to attack me, I'll call for help!"

Luo Yao clapped his hands and walked into the luxury room on the top floor of the restaurant.

"Everyone did a great job, order whatever you want today!"

A group of people cheered and ordered a whole table of dishes without any hesitation. Even Luo Xinchen pointed at the millet cake on the menu with his little finger.

Along the way, no one had to save money for Luo Yao. After all, take the street downstairs for example, all the new shops that opened were making money for Luo Yao.

Luo Yao took 5% of the profit for all the main contracts. In just the time it took to order these dishes, he probably earned a thousand taels of silver.

Many businessmen who have contracts with Luo Yao will give big discounts as long as Luo Yao produces wolf tooth talismans.

However, Luo Yao would basically never show the wolf tooth talisman. The wolf tooth talisman was a birthday gift given to him by Li Xian on his 20th birthday.

The wolf's tooth was a trophy that Li Xian pulled out when he went alone to the Snow Deer Mountain on the northwest border in his early years to fight against a pack of wolves and kill the wolf king. It was a small toy carved by Li Xian when he was bored. The knife skills are very good and it is very delicate.

The Snow Deer Mountain is covered with ice and snow for thousands of miles. The wolves and snow deer there are connected with spirits and are completely different species from ordinary wolves. The snow wolves and snow deer are very tall and are revered as two gods by the people of the northwest.

After the meal, the group walked back to the inn leisurely in the sunset.

A few days later, Lianyu County's bookstores, big and small, were all selling the Princess Little Fairy's storybooks, with titles like "The True Record of the Young Master Who Provided Disaster Relief," "The Princess's Sayings," "Little Fairy's Life Tips," and "Biography of the Duke's Mansion's Descendants."

The news spread so fast that Luo Yao and his entourage drove south in a horse-drawn carriage. Along the way, the people working in the fields were talking about Luo Yao's deeds.

That day, Luo Yao and his party stayed in Hetang Village.

A group of people entered the village openly without hiding their identities. After all, they still had to rely on these villagers if they were in danger.

The villagers were very welcoming. The men helped move Luo Yao's things into the yard. The grandparents, uncles and mothers surrounded Luo Yao and asked him questions. Luo Yao patiently explained to them.

The old village chief said, "Little God, these days our village has pooled our money and hired craftsmen from the town to quickly build a waterwheel using that clever trick. It's really useful. With the mill installed, it's much more convenient for the villagers to do anything they want. They don't need to use human power or horsepower to push the millstone. With the new millstone, we can even grind flour from shells."

As Luo Yao walked, the old village chief and villagers pulled him aside to express their gratitude.

"Thank you, little fairy, thank you, little fairy!"

"Little fairy, these are my hen's eggs, you can have them!"

There was a long line of children in the village following, with a little fairy on the left and a little fairy on the right. Luo Yao's ears were covered with calluses from listening so much.

After following them all the way, the village chief drove everyone away, saying, "The little immortal is out practicing, and he must be tired from the journey. Please don't disturb him from resting."

Seeing that Luo Yao was not in good spirits, his uncles, aunts and grandmother left reluctantly, looking back every few steps.

The village chief escorted Luo Yao into the house, rubbing his hands a little embarrassedly, "Little Immortal, I saw that little trick mentioned a way to fertilize the soil, is it true?"

Luo Yao nodded wearily, "You can lead the villagers to fertilize the land according to that method and ensure a high grain yield."

The old man was happy. He bowed to Luo Yao and left happily.

Luo Yao and his group slept in the open air and rode in a carriage for a whole day. Luo Yao was exhausted and felt uncomfortable all over. After the old village chief left, he hugged his younger brother and fell asleep.

On the streets of the capital, Bei Zhenting had just come out of the Machinery Bureau. A few months after the war, the capital gradually regained its bustle, and many new things came out in the capital during this period.

A toothbrush, toothpowder and toiletries store, a tomato hotpot restaurant, and Ping'an Mansion have been newly opened. Qingcheng Pavilion, which was closed due to the civil unrest, has reopened and started the Xingchen cosmetics business.

Walking to a restaurant called Ping'an Mansion, Bei Zhenting went in to eat as usual.

I was unlucky today as I ran into the big boss and major shareholder of Ping'an Mansion.

The big boss is Chen Zesheng, and the major shareholder is Chen Yu, the Minister of Dali Temple. It is a family business.

The upright Dali Temple Minister Chen Yu rarely said something sarcastic in his life, "Oh, I didn't expect that the dignified Prince Yong'an would come to Ping'an Mansion for dinner."

Chen Zesheng: "Brother, Prince Yong'an often comes to our Ping'an Mansion. Aze told me a long time ago."

The shopkeeper Aze, who was using an abacus, looked up and glanced at the prince secretly, trembling.

At that time, the princess was afraid of implicating him, so she asked A Shi to give him a bunch of money-making ideas, and asked him to find a partner with the Dali Temple Minister, seek protection, and leave the palace quickly.

Two days after he left, a fire broke out in the palace, and rumors spread on the streets that the princess had been burned to death.

He rushed to see what was happening and was caught by the people from the palace. In the end, there was a fight between the people from the palace and the people from the Dali Temple.

The Dali Temple Minister snatched him back, and it was really bizarre that the prince finally spared his life.

Aze was frightened when he saw the prince.

Ever since Ping'an Mansion opened, he had seen the prince almost every day... Aze, who earned money under the prince's tyranny every day, had a very difficult life...

Seeing the prince coming again, the waiter came up to him with a friendly expression and asked, "What would you like to eat today, prince?"

Chen Yu frowned and said, "Ping'an Mansion does not do business with Prince Yong'an..."

Chen Zesheng, who was standing by, quickly covered his eldest brother's mouth and whispered, "What's wrong with money, brother? Go back to your Dali Temple and don't disturb my business! This guy is my cash cow!"

Chen Yu snorted coldly and hugged Xiao Qing beside him, "Come upstairs, I'm treating my clerk to dinner!"

Waiter: "Okay, Second Boss!"

Bei Zhenting sat down in the lobby with a gloomy face. "Waiter, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, beggar's chicken, three-fresh vermicelli soup, and a small portion of millet cake to take away."

The waiter held the tray and wrote down the order: "Okay, wait a moment, sir!"

Bei Zhenting has become accustomed to sitting in the lobby, sitting in the same corner every day. Ping'an Mansion's regular customers all know his identity and dare not sit there at all.

After a while, the corner seat became Bei Zhenting's exclusive VIP seat.

We replaced the tables and chairs with high-end porcelain ornaments and even the tea sets and tableware were matched.

Bei Zhenting poured a cup of hot tea, the aroma of tea filled the air. Ping'an Mansion's dishes were novel and very popular. There were many people in the lobby, and Bei Zhenting felt relaxed for a rare moment.

During this period, Luo Yao did not hide his identity, and Bei Zhenting received information about Luo Yao's whereabouts from informants one after another.

After this meal, he will go to the palace tonight to bid farewell to the emperor.
