The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

And so, we settled into our new home.

In the following days, Jia Daoshi was also busy.

He and Jia Hu built a small house next to the lake, which became their blacksmith workshop.

As a master of materials science, Jia Daoshi's blacksmith workshop was naturally different from his uncle's.

Only by customizing it to your own habits can you make it more convenient to use.

This manor is nice; Jia Daoshi felt he could stay here for a long time.

Next, I need to think of a legitimate way to make money.

That being said, Jia Daoshi was quite knowledgeable and could make a name for himself in various fields.

Just like the grilled fish and popcorn we had before.

But those jobs have now been handed over to Jiajia Village.

He can't keep doing those things now.

To make soap, perfume, and shampoo?

These things are made with very complex processes and require a huge amount of time.

Becoming a fashion designer? That seems a bit unreliable; people from two different time periods would definitely have different aesthetic tastes.

Setting up a fortune-telling stall? That won't work either. Not to mention you're not really good at it, even if you were, if you keep telling fortunes and revealing too many secrets of heaven, people will suffer a shortened lifespan and a loss of blessings.

After much thought, I wondered if I should just become a blacksmith and sell swords.

Although it's his old profession, he is now considered a master of the metal and stone school. Surely a master's swords should be limited edition?

It seems I still need to visit Yilan City again.

After all, one cannot simply sit idly by and live off one's savings.

Moreover, according to the Dragon Elephant Divine Skill cultivation method that Di Qinglin gave him, he would soon need to buy some precious herbs for medicinal baths.

They all cost money.

This afternoon.

Just as Jia Daoshi was about to go out into the city.

"Sir, three people have arrived outside, one old and two young. They say they have come specifically to visit you. Judging from their attire, they must be distinguished guests from somewhere."

Butler Su came in to report the news.

Upon hearing this, Jia Daoshi was taken aback.

Distinguished guest?

What kind of distinguished guests would come to visit me?

"Did they say who it was?" Jia Daoshi asked.

Aside from the people at Guanglong Sword Shop, Jia Daoshi really didn't know any other influential people he knew.

Especially after he moved!

Even the villagers didn't know where he moved to, so how would anyone else know?

If they are from Xuanhua Shop or Guanglong Sword Shop, then Steward Sun would definitely recognize them.

"The other party didn't say anything, only that they came specifically to visit you, sir."

Butler Sun shook his head.

"Then take them to the living room and wait there for a while. I'll be there in a bit."

Since he was going to meet an important guest, he needed to change his clothes. Fortunately, Murong Jiu had made him a light blue robe these past two days, which suited his temperament perfectly.

"Yes."

Butler Sun went downstairs to greet the guests.

Jia Daoshi also returned to his room and, with Murong Jiu's help, changed into the blue robe.

It really suits her temperament.

As for Di Qinglin, he was practicing his sword in the backyard at that moment.

The happiest person after moving to this estate was Di Qinglin!

The manor is large, with plenty of space for her to practice her swordsmanship!

Therefore, Di Qinglin's attitude towards Jia Daoshi has changed significantly in the past few days, and he has become more proactive when going to bed at night.

Strangely enough, under this yin-yang harmony, Jia Daoshi also felt that his Dragon Elephant Divine Skill was progressing rapidly!

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Jia Daoshi arrived in the living room.

Sure enough, there were three people in the hall!

One of them was an elderly man with gray hair, and the other was a young girl dressed in black with a black veil covering her face.

Both of them were standing.

The only person sitting in the chair was a man dressed elegantly and with a calm demeanor.

The man's age was hard to discern; he appeared to be in his twenties or thirties.

The three of them waited quietly in the living room. Except for the man who would occasionally pick up a teacup and take a sip or two, the other two just stood there.

When they saw Jia Daoshi walk into the living room, the three of them looked over almost simultaneously.

Ok?

Upon seeing this, a look of doubt appeared in their eyes.

Because Jia Daoshi looked rather young, he didn't seem like a master at all.

Only the girl in black let out a soft "hmm" upon seeing Jia Daoshi.

Because she recognized Jia Daoshi as the "Li Bai" who had caused a scene at the Hundred Flowers Pavilion that night.

"Who are you? We've never met before, have we?"

When Jia Daoshi realized that he really didn't recognize these people, he immediately took the initiative to ask.

The three people did not answer.

The man, in particular, sized up Jia Daoshi for a moment before slowly saying, "Indeed, we have never met before, but I believe that we will soon become fast friends."

"What do you mean?" Jia Daoshi chuckled upon hearing this; this young man was truly blunt. "You're that confident?"

The man's voice was deep, steady, and powerful.

However, the girl behind him was more attractive. She had a great figure, and even though she was wearing a black dress, her stunning curves were still visible. Although the black gauze covered half of her nose and mouth, her eyes, which were exposed, were like limpid autumn water. Combined with her snow-white skin, she was a true beauty.

However, no matter how beautiful she is, she should only be this man's woman.

Then it's not meant to be.

If that's the case, why talk about instant connection?

Even Jia Daoshi himself didn't realize that his thinking had changed during his time in the world.

The man smiled faintly: "In that case, let me introduce myself first. My name is Wu Qingye, the ninth prince of the Great Jing Dynasty, the Prince of Zhou. I've come to see you mainly to discuss cooperation with you, sir."

Wuqing Night?

The Ninth Prince of the Great Jing Dynasty?

Cooperate with yourself?

Jia Daoshi was somewhat bewildered.

How did they suddenly get involved with the royal family?

He listened to every single word Wu Qingye said.

However, when the three sentences are put together, it becomes completely incomprehensible.

"I wonder... what does the Ninth Prince want to cooperate with me on?"

Jia Daoshi looked puzzled.

Does this guy also want to sell grilled fish?

Wu Qingye remained calm: "However you and Xuanhua cooperate, that's how we can cooperate. As for your profits, we can offer even more!"

Yes, his tone was very confident.

Jia Daoshi pondered for a moment, remaining outwardly calm and making it impossible for anyone to discern what he was thinking.

Few people know about his affair with Xuanhua.

Besides myself and my two wives, it was just Pei Lu and his group.

Moreover, Pei Lu's side would certainly not publicize something like this.

Not only will they not publicize it, they will also help cover it up as much as possible!

Because this has touched upon the core interests of Xuanhua Sword Shop and Guanglong Sword Shop!

But now, the ninth prince of the Great Jing Dynasty has actually come knocking on our door!

We should get straight to the point and start cooperating with him.

They call it a collaboration, but I'm afraid they just want to snatch themselves away from Xuanhuahao.
