Prince Rui, don't spoil your adopted daughter too much: she will eventually get married

Seeing those people looking down on others, Zhai Yun didn't want to tolerate them.

Zhai Yun extended her hand towards Xiao Wu. Fortunately, she had prepared this time and had exchanged some silver notes on her. Xiao Wu took out all the silver notes in his arms. Zhai Yun took out the two largest ones and said, "Look, this is a silver note worth two hundred thousand taels. Take it and get out!"

The burly man took the banknote and after carefully checking it, his eyes changed as he looked at Zhai Yun and Feng Chenyi. After receiving the money, he led his group of younger brothers away.

Seeing this, Wei Zi started coughing violently. "They're bullying me. Seeing that I'm a weak woman with no one to rely on, they set me up to owe money."

Mr. Rui looked at Zhai Yun with gratitude, then helped Wei Zi up. "You don't have to hold on any longer. If these shops can't continue to operate, just close them! Come with me to Fengling City."

"Shui Xiang opened these shops with great effort, I can't close them." Wei Zi supported her weak body and stood up. The tenacity in her eyes was in stark contrast to her delicate appearance.

After Wei Zi finished speaking, Mr. Rui looked at Feng Chenyi and explained, "These shops were opened by your mother. Since your mother passed away, people have been causing trouble. The other shops have been closed, but this casino is still profitable, so I have kept it open."

Mr. Rui looked at Wei Zi and said, "You alone can't run a casino."

Feng Chenyi looked around carefully, and Zhai Yun couldn't help but inspect the casino. The consumption in Tianjin Country is higher than other places. Casinos are profitable, and the casinos here should make more money.

Wei Zi held on to her body and said stubbornly, "I can do it."

She tried to break free from Mr. Rui's supporting hand and wanted to stand up on her own, but she failed. Her body fell into Mr. Rui's arms like a kite with a broken string.

"You're constantly being troubled by others, and you've already lost all your savings. How are you going to keep running your business?" Mr. Rui continued to try his best to persuade her.

Wei Zi was just a woman. Although she had experienced the ups and downs of the business world while following the Shuixiang merchants, she alone could not support the casino.

After Shui Xiang's death, all of Shui Xiang's former confidants had sought their own ways out, but Wei Zi was the only one who stayed here and refused to leave.

The casino that Zhai Yun had smashed to pieces was smashed to pieces. The casino was smashed to such a state that it would cost tens of thousands of gold just to repair it with the consumption of Tianjin Country. In addition, the labor cost in Tianjin Country was relatively high, so recruiting people would also cost a lot of money.

Wei Zi still insisted: "Even if there is no one here, I will guard this place. This is the last thing Sister Shui Xiang left behind."

"Let's fix it up and open it. I'll pay for all the expenses." Feng Chenyi suddenly said.

He also wanted to keep what his mother left behind.

Zhai Yun stuffed the remaining banknotes into Wei Zi's hands and said, "Take these first and calculate roughly how much money you need."

Except for the two large-denomination silver notes, the rest were small, and their total value was only a few tens of thousands of taels.

Wei Zi looked at the money and tears immediately fell. She knelt on her knees and cried, "I was originally bought by your mother. She thought highly of me and treated me as a sister. From now on, you are my master. I will pay you every month as before. You just need to give me the normal wages. I don't want anything else."

Feng Chenyi walked forward and helped Wei Zi up. After hesitating for a moment, he slowly said, "Fifty-fifty."

When Wei Zi heard what Feng Chenyi said, she shook her head repeatedly, "I don't want it. I just want the wages."

"37." Feng Chenyi spoke again.

Wei Zi wanted to refuse, but Mr. Rui said, "Just agree. Xiao Yiyi will need your help a lot in the future."

After hearing this, Wei Zi no longer refused, "Okay, then 37."

After settling Wei Zi, Feng Chenyi decided to keep Daliu and recruit some thugs after the casino opened, and let Daliu train them.

Daliu's main task is to protect Wei Zi.

"Master Rui, send a few more assassins over when you go back." Wei Zi was an old acquaintance of his mother, and Feng Chenyi didn't want them to get hurt again.

Mr. Rui's face suddenly turned bitter. "Is this how you're going to use the warriors I worked so hard to train? The best elites have already been sent out. There are no more."

Zhai Yun looked at Mr. Rui and joked, "Your Highness is taking care of your confidante, and you're not happy."

Mr. Rui's face turned cold: "Don't talk nonsense, we are all old friends of Shuixiang. Shuixiang is not here, I am just taking care of her."

However, the way he hugged Wei Zi and protected her just now could not be concealed by just caring.

"This woman is gentle and good-looking. You are so old, you should have gotten married long ago." Zhai Yun didn't believe it. The woman stayed here alone and it was obvious that she had not married.

Wei Zi looked at Mr. Rui's expression and it didn't seem like she had no feelings towards him.

Mr. Rui was almost 40 years old, and he was about to teach Zhai Yun a lesson after being touched on a sore spot. Feng Chenyi blocked Zhai Yun's way and said, "Yun'er is right."

Mr. Rui looked at Feng Chenyi, withdrew his hand in dismay, and looked at Zhai Yun with gritted teeth: "You have a backer, you are powerful."

Zhai Yun stuck out her tongue at Mr. Rui, which made Mr. Rui even more angry.

In order to avoid continuing to watch Zhai Yun abuse her power, he simply left.

All the renovation work of the casino was handed over to Wei Zi. Feng Chenyi and Zhai Yun left Daliu and returned to Fengling City. Mr. Rui said he would stay there for a few more days.

"Finally, no one is forcing you to practice martial arts. You can relax for a few days, Brother Yi." Mr. Rui was so anxious that he went to Tianjin Kingdom and was still teaching Feng Chenyi the back-heart method on the way.

"Yes." Feng Chenyi gestured to Zhai Yun to look at the things on the table.

Zhai Yun opened a thick stack of memorials and saw that they were all complaints from villagers and disputes among merchants. Fengling City had been sparsely populated in recent years and no officials were willing to come, so these matters fell into the military camp.

"Are those people who attacked us in the desert really from the military camp?" Zhai Yun asked cautiously.

"General Shi found out that three hundred people did go out that night and never came back. Those people were dispatched using Lieutenant General Li's badge. One hundred of them went to the escort agency, and two hundred went to the desert." It was rare for Feng Chenyi to say so many words at once.

"This Lieutenant General Li is really going too far!" Zhai Yun punched the desk, and it felt like her fist hit a stone, causing excruciating pain.

Zhai Yun blew on her fist lovingly and analyzed, "He's targeting the Hongxi Escort Agency, not us. The Hongxi Escort Agency's affairs cannot be exposed, so he can only pretend he doesn't know."

Feng Chenyi smiled and nodded, "Yun'er is smart."

In the past, when there were fewer people living in Fengling City, there weren't necessarily so many things going on. Now everyone has returned, and they are either fighting for land or for interests. Zhai Yun looked at Feng Chenyi who was getting busier and busier, and couldn't bear to disturb him.

The first dart went very smoothly.
