Chapter 111: Zi Nu's Observation

Chapter 111: Zi Nu's Observation
Zi Nu held Cheng Jiao's hand and looked at his palm.

"Why are there nail polish on your hands? It's red, and has a strange fragrance. It looks like it was made by a master perfumer."

Cheng Jiao was a little speechless as he didn't wipe the dirt off Madam Mingzhu.

If he didn't look carefully, he really couldn't tell that Zi Nu had such good eyesight.

If I had known earlier, I would have listened to Madam Mingzhu, washed my hands with water, and then held Zi Nu's hand.

"I just went to the rouge shop and wanted to pick one for you. I accidentally got it stuck to me when I was trying it out."

Seeing Cheng Jiao's calm and confident attitude, Zi Nu was a little suspicious and asked with a charming smile, "Really?"

Cheng Jiao was determined: "Of course I'll tell you!"

Zi Nu clapped her hands, her eyes curved, and she smiled sweetly: "Then let's go shopping. I also want to buy some nail polish for my sisters."

No way, do you have to hold it like this?

Cheng Jiao coughed lightly and said, "I'm afraid it won't work today. I'm ready to take action."

Zi Nu was startled: "Jubao Pavilion?"

She knew that Cheng Jiao had been waiting for an opportunity to get a piece of the pie.

Cheng Jiao nodded: "Yes, I have brought the map of the interior of the Treasure Pavilion and the location of the hidden treasure."

Zi Nu was solemn and suppressed her desire to ask Cheng Jiao to take her shopping.

"I'm going to find Wei Zhuang and Han Fei."

Cheng Jiao let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was smart enough to prevent Zi Nu from pursuing the matter further. Otherwise, with Zi Nu's observation skills, he felt that his playing with Madam Mingzhu would be exposed sooner or later.

He took a few sips of tea, squinted his eyes, and tried to conserve his energy.

To Cheng Jiao's surprise, the person who came first was not Wei Zhuang, but Han Fei.

"Master Chengjiao, Miss Zinu said you have something important to tell me. What's going on?"

After Han Fei sat down, he picked up the wine jug on the table and poured himself a glass, which was very smooth.

"Where's Brother Wei Zhuang?"

Han Fei drank a cup and took a long breath.

"We have found clues about Tianze's whereabouts, and Brother Wei Zhuang is following him."

Cheng Jiao took out the blue sea coral bottle that had been put away for quite some time.

Zi Nu stood beside Cheng Jiao and took the wine jug to pour the orchid wine she had brewed herself into Cheng Jiao's cup.

Looking at the familiar wine glass and fine wine, Han Fei's eyes twitched.
He also remembered what Cheng Jiao said to him that day, something like "A gentleman does not take away what others like, a gentleman is happy to help others achieve their goals!"

Cheng Jiao exclaimed, "The wine poured into the cup, and the blue sea surged. Brother Han's wine cup is truly magical."

Han Fei endured the pain in his heart and said calmly, "As long as Master Cheng Jiao likes it."

Cheng Jiao looked at Han Fei's indifferent expression and asked in confusion, "Brother Han, don't you want to go back?"

Han Fei was surprised: "Could it be that Master Cheng Jiao will return it to me?"

After all, it was a wine glass that he had treasured for a long time, and Han Fei still liked it very much. However, he had to take it out in order to exchange for the treasure in Zi Nu's hand.

After Han Fei finished speaking, he thought of something and asked, "Is there something wrong, Master Cheng Jiao?"

Cheng Jiao drank up the orchid wine in the coral jar by the blue sea.

"A gentleman does not take away what others like. A gentleman helps others achieve their goals. Now, given the relationship between me and Brother Han, how can I continue to take what others love?"

Han Fei was alert. The last time Cheng Jiao said this, his Sea Coral Bottle inexplicably ended up in Cheng Jiao's hands.

Although it was probably given to Cheng Jiao by Zi Nu, Han Fei still felt it was a little weird.

"Well, Master Cheng Jiao, please speak first. If Master Cheng Jiao doesn't explain clearly, although this Jade Sea Coral Jar is Han Fei's favorite, it is fine to keep it in Master Cheng Jiao's hands."

Cheng Jiao shook his head helplessly.

He really just wanted to return it to Han Fei without any other intention.

But seeing Han Fei's expression, if he didn't take something, Han Fei really didn't dare to take the Blue Sea Coral Bottle back. "Alas! In that case, let's wait for Brother Wei Zhuang to come back first."

Seeing Han Fei's cautious look, Zi Nu smiled reservedly beside Cheng Jiao.

Han Fei ate dog food, drank wine, and wondered what Cheng Jiao wanted to do.

After eliminating them one by one, he vaguely guessed that it might be related to Jubao Pavilion, but he was still a little confused as to what it was specifically.

Wei Zhuang walked in holding the shark tooth.

Cheng Jiao quietly put away the dog paw that was placed under the table and was stroking Zi Nu's smooth, round, snow-white and tight thighs.

Zi Nu breathed a sigh of relief. Although she was under the table and no one could see her, the fact that there was someone in the room still made her very nervous.

Cheng Jiao smiled and touched Zi Nu's purple hair.

Zi Nu's purple hair blends perfectly with her elegant temperament. If someone is not familiar with her, they would probably think that Zi Nu is a mysterious, noble and elegant woman.

But Cheng Jiao, who had been intimate with Zi Nu many times, felt that Zi Nu was not only extremely elegant in appearance and temperament, but also had a delicate and exquisite heart after listening carefully to Zi Nu's inner thoughts, which fascinated him.

Wei Zhuang knelt beside the tea table, watching Cheng Jiao and Zi Nu being intimate, without changing his expression.
But the tone of his voice let Han Fei know that if Cheng Jiao was bored and asked Wei Zhuang to come over to eat dog food, he would definitely use the shark tooth to comb Cheng Jiao's hair.

"Tell me what's going on."

Cheng Jiao put away his casual attitude and sat up straight.

"Has Tianze been found?"

Wei Zhuang said coolly: "I have found it."

Cheng Jiao couldn't help but snap his fingers.

"Very good, it saves me some effort."

Han Fei smiled and said, "Master Cheng Jiao, please speak quickly. I have already drunk half a pot of wine."

Cheng Jiao didn't play tricks either.

"I am going to take action against Jubao Pavilion."

Neither Wei Zhuang nor Han Fei were surprised.

Although Cheng Jiao rarely mentioned it, Han Fei and Wei Zhuang were very similar people. One was a disciple of Xunzi, and the other was a direct disciple of Guiguzi. It was impossible for them to ignore the only major thing Cheng Jiao did after entering Han.

Zi Nu refilled Cheng Jiao's cup of tea. She knew Cheng Jiao's habits. When it came to getting down to business, he liked to drink tea and was not used to drinking alcohol.

"Young Master has obtained the internal map of the Treasure Pavilion."

Zi Nu spread the map on the tea table. Han Fei and Wei Zhuang glanced at it and then set their sights on Cheng Jiao.

"How much money has Jubao Pavilion collected now?"

Han Fei couldn't help but ask.

These days, he has been keeping a close eye on what's happening in Jubao Pavilion, as there are carriages going in every day.

Judging from how hard the horses were struggling, you could tell there would be a lot of valuables in the carriage.

Wei Zhuang placed his hands on his legs and looked at Cheng Jiao seriously, waiting for a reply.

Cheng Jiao groaned and said, "I don't know the exact amount, but it's probably between 700,000 and 800,000 gold coins."

Han Fei was dumbfounded. "These vampires are really capable of committing evil!"

Zi Nu covered her mouth lightly, and after hearing the number that Cheng Jiao slowly said, the shock in her beautiful eyes lingered for a long time.

She knew that Jubao Pavilion had been making a lot of moves recently. According to her estimation, there might be 200,000 or 300,000 gold coins. She never expected that the Korean nobles were really rich.

Although Korea has always found it difficult to develop militarily and politically due to its geographical location, its business is still good. Just look at the fact that all the Hu merchants, such as Touman, came to Xinzheng.

Six hundred thousand or seven hundred thousand gold coins are equivalent to twenty or thirty Zi Lan Xuans.

Wei Zhuang frowned slightly, and it was hard to tell what his mood was.

But the finger bones placed on the leg were unusually pale, obviously showing that force had been used.
