Chapter 30: "A Golden Invitation to the Royal Banquet"
"Aren't you Prince Xue Beng? I haven't seen you in many days. Why haven't you come for a stroll in my little shop?" Ye Xuan smiled as he stepped forward and greeted.
Prince Xue Beng looked up and saw Ye Xuan, who was full of smiles. A wary look immediately appeared in his eyes, but his face showed a rather bright smile.
"So, you are the owner of the black shop. What a coincidence. The shopkeeper is not in the little shop, how come you're free to come out?" said the Prince.
Ye Xuan sighed and said frustratingly, "Lately, business has been slow. Not a single person has come all day, and in the last five days, we haven't sold a single treasure chest. It seems that uncorking the pot will be impossible. I hope the prince can visit my shop; noble help would be greatly appreciated."
However, Prince Xue Beng recalled the scene where Ye Xuan taught Dugu Bo a lesson and immediately became guarded.
Who would have thought that this guy in front of him, who seemed young and like an older brother, would be stronger than a Titled Douluo.
"The Little Prince has been quite busy lately and doesn't have much time. In the future, if I have time, I will definitely come by to take care of the shop owner's affairs," said Xue Beng with a smile.
"The Prince knows more noble people. Please ask the Prince to do more advertising. If you can bring people to spend money in the little shop, the shop will provide you with crucial information. Do you agree?" Ye Xuan laughed.
Prince Xue Beng, somewhat fearful of dealing with Ye Xuan, replied, "I will definitely do it; for now, this prince will take his leave."
With that, the prince stood up and was about to leave.
"Prince, be aware that it's very dangerous outside. Never go out alone in the future," Ye Xuan warned with a smile.
Xue Beng looked at Ye Xuan with anger and asked, "Who are you?"
"I am the owner of the black shop. As long as you have money, I'll be able to provide you with everything you desire. Prince, when you have money, come find me; I won't disappoint you," Ye Xuan said with a smile.
Although Prince Xue Beng already had his own way of doing things, Ye Xuan saw promising potential in the young Prince.
"Really?" Xue Beng asked mischievously.
Ye Xuan smiled faintly and said, "Although you are a prince, you haven't seen a truly strong person yet, nor do you know the feat of a person destroying a country."
After that, Ye Xuan left directly. This meeting was a good start for future encounters.
After Ye Xuan left, Prince Xue Beng looked at his uncle and said, "Royal Uncle, do you know that person? Is what he said true?"
To give Xue Beng confidence, his uncle affirmed, "It must be true."
Prince Xue Beng took a deep breath and decided to save money to visit that shop in the future.
Time passed day by day, and Xue Qinghe's wedding day was approaching. Ye Xuan was considering whether he should prepare a gift and attend the wedding banquet. After all, Xue Qinghe also spent a lot of money here.
It's a pity that he still hasn't received an invitation, and he fears he won't even be able to enter.
"Lao Ye, prepare some tea; this princess is here again."
The sound was heard before the person arrived. A fiery figure burst in from the outside and then sat on a stool, looking as if she were at home.
This person was none other than Princess Xue Ke.
Ye Xuan remembered that during this period, Princess Xue Ke was the only one who talked to him, making his life less boring.
Sometimes, Ye Xuan himself wondered if he should find a woman. The days when he cuddles with a wife in bed are very good. At least, I don't have to feel as lonely as I do now.
The actions of taking tea leaves, boiling water, and making tea were carried out in one go. When the tea was served, Princess Xue Ke drank it regardless of her appearance.
"Slow down, you'll burn your mouth," said Ye Xuan.
When Princess Xue Ke put down the teacup, she began to look like a princess.
"Old Ye, this time I'll buy you something good. Please tell me how you want to thank me," said Xue Ke with a mysterious face.
"Thank? I'm not interested," Ye Xuan simply shook his head.
This made Xue Ke's plan to scam money fail.
"Old Ye, you've changed. You're not even ready to cooperate with me," said Xue Ke with a resentful look.
Ye Xuan waved his hand, "If you're not interested, you're not interested. However, can you tell me what it is?"
Xue Ke pulled out a gold-plated invitation and placed it on the table, "I got this with great difficulty. It's an invitation to my brother, the prince's wedding banquet. What do you think? It's interesting. You can enter and witness his wedding. It's a feast for the eyes. You can also eat all kinds of mountain and sea delicacies, as well as rare birds and animals. No need to thank me; it's what made our relationship good."
Thanks?
Thanks for nothing.
Don't you need to bring gifts to other people's weddings?
Ye Xuan took it and opened it. Even the words inside were written in gold paint. It looked very ostentatious.
"Tell me, if this invitation is sold, how much could I get?" Ye Xuan suddenly said.
"No, Lao Ye, you can't do this kind of thing!" Xue Ke exclaimed.
Ye Xuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, how could I do such a thing? I'll definitely go."
"There's no need to get too expensive gifts, just tens of thousands of gold soul coins."
Tens of thousands of gold soul coins for something trivial?
If you say that, Ye Xuan's interest will be even greater.
