Chapter 629 Bad intentions
The sedan stopped by the roadside. The maid stepped forward and opened the curtain, and Wang Dafu rushed up immediately.
He pointed at Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe and said, "Lord City Lord, these two are the ones selling rice in this city. I asked them to leave but they refused to leave, and I also asked me not to meddle in their affairs."
After saying that, he gave Ji Yuntang a provocative look.
It seemed to be saying, just wait for your death, our reinforcements have arrived.
The person in the sedan chair stepped down, and only then did Ji Yuntang see the man's true face.
He had a rosy face, fair skin, a handsome face, thin and rosy lips, and a somewhat evil and morbid look.
In short, the city lord in front of him gave people a very uncomfortable feeling. He was like a hunting leopard, ready to pounce and bite people at any time.
Ji Yuntang became more cautious about this person.
Before she and Luo Junhe could say anything, Shopkeeper Cao rushed over and said arrogantly: "The Lord City Lord has arrived, why don't you two kneel down and kowtow to him!"
Jiang Wangbei raised his hand and pretended to be displeased and scolded Manager Cao.
"You must not be rude to guests. You have no right to speak here. Why don't you leave now?"
After saying this, he turned his head and looked at Ji Yuntang gently.
"I guess this is your first time doing business in Liangzhoukou, right?"
"To do business here, you must report to the City Lord's Mansion in advance, and you can only trade on the street after obtaining the consent of this City Lord."
"The girl is not from Liangzhoukou, so she doesn't know the rules here. She didn't come to report in advance, so she is innocent. This city lord will not blame her."
"But if you still want to continue selling rice here, you still need to go to the City Lord's Mansion with me in person and get a stamp to register before you can continue selling things here. What do you think, young lady?"
After hearing Jiang Wangbei's words, Manager Cao and Wang Dafu were all dumbfounded.
Didn’t they come here today to punish Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe and drive them away?
Why did the city lord invite the other party to visit the city lord’s mansion?
Also, how come they don’t know that merchants here need to register and get stamped at the City Lord’s Mansion?
Manager Cao and Wang Dafu didn't understand what the city lord was up to, and they didn't dare to ask.
But Luo Junhe was different. He could tell at a glance that Jiang Wangbei’s look towards Ji Yuntang was not simple.
Although he hid it well, Luo Junhe still saw a gleam of determination in the other person's eyes.
His eyes dimmed, and he walked forward, pulling Ji Yuntang behind him, blocking Jiang Wangbei's gaze.
With a height of 1.9 meters, he looks extremely oppressive when standing in front of Jiang Wangbei.
Luo Junhe deliberately let out a little of his aura and said, "I am the boss of Yunji Rice Shop. The idea of selling rice was also my idea. My wife has nothing to do with this matter. If the city lord has any questions, you can just ask me directly."
Only then did Jiang Wangbei notice Luo Junhe.
As soon as he arrived, his eyes were attracted by Ji Yuntang. Although she was not a top-notch beauty, she had the looks of a pretty girl from a small family, and was very pleasing to the eye.
But what made Jiang Wangbei most satisfied was Ji Yuntang’s fox eyes.
Her eyes are big and round, and her eyelashes are long and curled, as lively and dazzling as the billions of stars in the night sky.
It is no exaggeration to say that these are definitely the most beautiful pair of eyes he has ever seen.
He couldn't help himself and walked over to talk to Ji Yuntang.
But unexpectedly, before Ji Yuntang could say anything, a man suddenly appeared.
The other party also claimed to be Ji Yuntang's husband.
Jiang Wangbei felt a little unhappy, but he didn't show it on his face. He then looked up and sized up Luo Junhe.
As a man and the youngest city lord in Liangzhou, Jiang Wangbei is very confident about his appearance without any narcissism.
He felt that there was no man more handsome than him in Liangzhoukou.
And his height is also very outstanding, half a head taller than the average person.
But now when he saw Luo Junhe, Jiang Wangbei suddenly felt less confident.
Although Luo Junhe looked ordinary with an unremarkable face, the other person was more than a head taller than him.
The most important thing is that the other person's eyes are sharp and the aura he exudes should not be underestimated.
Seeing this, Jiang Wangbei became even more convinced that Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe were not ordinary people.
How could an ordinary person have such sharp eyes?
When they faced themselves, instead of being stage-frightened, they were unusually calm.
This is not the aura that ordinary people should have.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wangbei asked tentatively: "May I know your names and where are you from?"
Ji Yuntang had already thought of a good excuse. She pointed at Luo Junhe and said, "You can just call my husband Mr. Yun and Madam Yun. We are from Lin'an City and are rice merchants there."
"We are short of everything except rice. I heard from the diners outside that the people in Liangzhoukou are very short of food and can't eat enough every day, so I discussed it with my husband and decided to bring some rice to Liangzhoukou to sell."
"It turns out that those people didn't lie to us. The rice here is really good to sell. Look, in less than half an hour, more than a thousand kilograms of rice were sold out."
"If you, City Lord, hadn't come here, the 500 kilograms of rice in front of us would probably be gone."
Ji Yuntang spoke with his hands and feet gesticulating, looking very innocent and cute.
Jiang Wangbei couldn't tell for a moment whether she was real or just pretending.
If that's true, then she is really stupid.
Such good refined rice, sold at such a low price, everyone will buy it, right?
But if the other party was pretending, he couldn't understand what the point of the other party coming to Liangzhoukou to sell rice was?
Is it true that couples from wealthy families go out and experience life?
In short, he was skeptical about Ji Yuntang's words.
He had heard of Lin'an City, but he had never been there. He knew that most of the people there were businessmen.
Many commonly used household items come from Lin'an City and are then sold all over the country.
Basically they sell everything there.
Jiang Wangbei looked at Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe and said gently, "We can sell the rice later. Why don't you two go with me to the City Lord's Mansion and have a seat there first?"
"To be honest, when I first saw you two, I felt that I had a very good impression of you, as if we had met somewhere before."
"If you don't mind, we can be friends. Wouldn't it be much more convenient for you to do business in Liangzhoukou in the future?"
