Chapter 181 Your tea is a bit expensive
"Father!"
"Master, woo woo woo~"
There was a wailing sound in the hall. Outside the hall, Zhu Yuncheng sat down and flipped through the booklet written by Zhong Feiyu.
After reading for a while, he put the booklet aside and said, "Huang Yu, right? Sit down."
Excellent people can often inadvertently reveal their extraordinary style.
If an ordinary person spoke to Zhu Yuncheng at close range for the first time, he would be so excited that he would not be able to sit down. However, after Huang Yu heard this, he sat directly in front of Zhu Yuncheng. Although there was excitement in his eyes, he was more calm.
"I just came back, and I heard that you led 400,000 troops to encircle the back of the Xumi army on the battlefield six months ago, turning the originally precarious situation around. You are quite good."
Huang Yu said modestly: "I dare not, it was the Emperor who helped me, otherwise I would not be able to get to the battlefield in such a short time."
Although he has a rebellious character, this cannot overcome his faith in the Emperor.
"The Emperor only sent you and the army to the battlefield. Reversing the situation mainly depends on your military strength. There is no need to be so modest." Zhu Yuncheng said softly, "And I also heard that after the war, you immediately sent troops to occupy Xiangzui Slope and the road leading to Xumi City from the Layered Rock Abyss. This alone makes you qualified to be the new Kaiyang Star, not just a Qianhu."
Huang Yu was excited. If it were in the past, he would definitely kneel down and assure Zhu Yuncheng that he could fulfill the responsibility of Kaiyang Star. However, after six months of settling down, he would not do so.
He stood up and said, "You can't do that, Human King. I don't have any outstanding achievements right now. If I were to be appointed Kaiyang Star rashly, I'm afraid the veterans in the Qianyan Army would not accept it. It was Teacher Chong Feiyu who came up with the idea of leading 400,000 Qianyan Army to encircle and flank us."
Zhu Yuncheng smiled and said, "I am very pleased that you have such an idea. Now that I am back and will use my troops to attack Xumi, how about you and I use a brush to write down the method of attacking Xumi on our hands?"
Huang Yu immediately stood up and took out two brushes dipped in ink from the study. He handed one to Zhu Yuncheng, and then the king and the general began to write a word on their palms.
Then, the two of them came together, opened their palms, and revealed the words inside.
Zhu Yuncheng smiled knowingly: "Okay."
Huang Yu was very excited: "Long live the Human King, he is so powerful."
The same word was on the palms of both hands: "Ship."
"It seems that you have a good strategic vision. In this case, I order you to make a detailed plan within three months."
Huang Yu saluted: "I obey the order of the king!"
After saying that, Huang Yu turned around and strode away.
After he left, Zhu Yuncheng looked back at the people crying in the hall and sighed softly: "Huahua."
"Long live the Human King."
"Tell Tianquanxing to write down in detail the life stories and contributions of Kaiyangxing and Chongfeiyu, and send them to the Heroic Martyrs Pavilion to be worshipped for eternity. After examining their characters, their descendants will be given the title of Qianhu of Qianyan Army, which will be hereditary for three generations."
"Yes."
The rank levels of the Qianyan Army are soldier, captain, battalion commander, centurion, thousand commander, ten thousand commander, coach, and chief coach.
A thousand households with an annual salary of 600,000 moras was already a wealthy family in Guili.
Kai Yang Xing died just like that. His death also reduced the joy of the return of the Human King. It also made many people curious about who will be the next generation of Kai Yang Xing?
This incident became a topic of conversation for many people who had returned home.
After all, the Human King had issued an order seven years ago that the position of Seven Stars could not be hereditary and only capable people could take the position.

"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since the three of us, master and apprentice, wandered around Guili City like this."
Among the bustling crowd on the street, there were two women and one man, who were chatting with each other while watching the lively scene around them.
These three people are Gan Yu, Zhu Yuncheng and Liu Yun.
While there was still some time, Zhu Yuncheng invited Liu Yun and Gan Yu to spend half a day relaxing.
"How dare you say that." Liu Yun snorted.
"It seems like, including the two years that my senior brother and I went to Inazuma, it has been a total of five or six years." Ganyu said after thinking about it.
"Five or six years, it's actually been that long." Zhu Yuncheng said to himself, then laughed, "Well, today, Master and Ganyu, you two can buy whatever you like, and I'll pay for it."
"Hey, how can I let Senior Brother spend money?" Gan Yu shook her head, but was stopped by Liu Yun, "He has already said so, so you shouldn't refuse. Besides, I don't think there is anything good to buy in this market."
Seeing her master like this, Ganyu nodded slightly.
The group of three continued to walk around the market and chat. All three of them modified their faces to hide their true identities.
"The autumn tea produced by Qiaoying Manor this year is sweet and has a long aftertaste. Come and have a look."
The shouting of a tea shop on the roadside attracted Liu Yun's attention, so she walked over and asked: "Shopkeeper, how much do you sell this tea?"
The shop owner smiled and said, "This young lady is so beautiful. She brightens up my tea shop. Because of your beauty, a box of tea costs 3,000 Mora. Three boxes are 10% off, four boxes are 20% off, and ten boxes are half price. How many boxes do you want, young lady?"
Zhu Yuncheng's ears pricked up. Why did these words sound so familiar? Moreover, according to convention, the first batch of autumn tea picked by Qiaoying Manor would be delivered to the Human King Palace and Qixing as soon as possible. Why didn't he see it?
Ganyu silently calculated in her mind: a box of tea costs three thousand Mora, three boxes with a 10% discount would be eight thousand one hundred Mora, four boxes would be nine thousand six hundred, and ten boxes would be fifteen thousand Mora.
"In that case, then give it to me......"
Before Liu Yun finished speaking, Zhu Yuncheng stepped forward and said, "Your tea is a bit expensive."
The shopkeeper looked at the young man, slightly startled, then smiled and said, "Look at what you are talking about, sir. This is the autumn tea that has just been produced in Qiaoying Manor. Once picked, it was put into a wooden box and wrapped in ice cubes, and brought to me by the Xuanwen Beast day and night. You think it is expensive, but I think it is too expensive too."
"Oh, then is this tea from Qiaoyingzhuang?" Zhu Yuncheng asked again.
The shopkeeper was stunned. Looking at the young man, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart: "Who is this person? I guess we haven't met before."
"I'm asking you, is this tea from Qiaoying Manor?" Zhu Yuncheng asked again.
Liu Yun and Gan Yu on the side frowned in confusion, not understanding why Zhu Yuncheng did this.
"It must be from Qiaoying Zhuang. If not, I will eat both the tea leaves and the wooden box. Is that okay?" The shopkeeper made up his mind and took out the wooden box full of tea leaves and placed it in front of Zhu Yuncheng.
The latter leaned over, picked up the wooden box, opened it, and then poured it onto the ground.
"Hey, you!" The shopkeeper got angry, "You have to compensate me for the tea!" He was about to take action, but was held back by Zhu Yuncheng.
The shop owner was horrified and was about to call for help when he heard Zhu Yuncheng's cold voice.
"You can do it. This is obviously low-quality tea grown in Dihua City, but you soaked it in ice water and it turned into tea from Qiaoying Manor. Do you know what the consequences of false advertising are?"
In an instant, the shopkeeper was sweating profusely, looking at Zhu Yuncheng and begging for mercy: "Sir, please forgive me, I was just confused for a moment."
Liu Yun's face turned pale. This human actually dared to lie to him. He was so bold.
"Confused for a moment?" Zhu Yuncheng heard this, "Then how much will these teas cost?"
"Three hundred Mora a box, no, I'll give you ten boxes for free, free!" the shopkeeper shouted.
Seeing that he was so tactful, Zhu Yuncheng let him go. The latter immediately took out ten boxes of tea, packed them and handed them to the former respectfully.
"Brother, he is cheating, so why don't you arrest him?"
Watching Zhu Yuncheng leave without looking back, Gan Yu couldn't help but ask.
"That's Tianquan Star's business." Zhu Yuncheng smiled, "Master, let's go."
"Hmph, look at Guili under your governance, and such a thing actually happens. It really brings shame to me." Liu Yun snorted.
"Master, you don't know that merchants are profit-driven. If they get 20% profit, they will be active. If they get 50%, they will dare to violate the law and contract. If they get 100% profit, they will do anything. This cannot be stopped in any way except by strict criminal law."
As Zhu Yuncheng finished speaking, more than a dozen Qianyan soldiers passed through the crowd and surrounded the tea shop.
"It's this store. They made false claims and sold fake products. My people took the money and the store is closed!"
