The two sat down.
Yang Zhong clapped his hands lightly, and the next moment four slender, beautiful, and well-dressed women walked in from outside.
Li Yuan looked him up and down.
Beautiful! White!
Her waist-to-body ratio is the golden ratio, and her waist is so slim that you could wrap your hand around it!
"How is Brother Li?"
Yang Zhong asked with a smile.
These four beauties are the "skinny horses" that Yang Pei gave him before. They've just been made, but he's been too busy lately to enjoy them.
To be honest, he felt bad even taking it out.
"Indeed! But what is the meaning of this, Brother Yang?"
The fact that they sent four top-tier beauties and presented such a lavish feast suggests they must have something to ask of them.
Yang Zhong did not answer, but instead beckoned to the two women on his left, "Sit next to Constable Li and serve him well tonight."
"yes!"
The two women bowed, their voices as clear and melodious as kingfishers.
They then sat down on either side of Li Yuan, while the remaining two women naturally sat on Yang Zhong's side.
Li Yuan smelled the two different fragrances and showed an expression of enjoyment.
Yang Zhong naturally saw this scene and was delighted. He then said, "Brother Li, if you like them, these two are yours."
"The saying goes, 'A beautiful woman is paired with a hero,' and this is their good fortune."
"Then I presume Brother Yang also has his own conditions?"
Li Yuan put his arms around the two women and asked with a smile.
"It's nothing."
Yang Zhong laughed, "I hope the Southern Police Station will show leniency towards my Yang family in the future. We've lost quite a bit of money these past few days!"
If we're talking about the Yang family's losses, he suffered the greatest.
Especially Bailing Pharmacy, which was emptied out by that beast Huang Wei; that was his biggest business.
My heart is bleeding!
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan released his arms from the two women, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. "Brother Yang, you must know that I am only temporarily in charge of the Southern Police Station. The search of the Southern District is also an order from the government. This... is something I cannot do."
Yang Zhong's face stiffened for a moment, but he quickly recovered. "In that case, could you lend a hand in a few places?"
"You mean...?"
"Two restaurants on Beihuan Street, a brothel on Donglin Street, and a pharmacy at Shizi Street!"
Li Yuan immediately understood.
These properties were mixed together with those that Yang Pei had specifically asked him to take care of; they originally belonged to him.
"As expected of a powerful family, this is truly a place of deceit and treachery!"
"Yang Zhong, on the other hand, seems unaware of this."
That's interesting, really interesting!
Li Yuan chuckled inwardly, but outwardly feigned difficulty, saying, "This was Huang Wei's instruction. You know the grudge between him and the Yang family. Brother Yang is truly putting me in a difficult position!"
At this moment, Yang Zhong cursed inwardly.
Difficult?
That's possible!
It's just that my appetite wasn't satisfied.
"snort!"
Yang Zhong sneered inwardly. "Two skinny horses" are worth a fortune. So he slowly took out a black square box from his pocket. The woman next to him immediately stood up and placed it in front of Li Yuan.
"A five-hundred-year-old medicinal herb—if Brother Li agrees, they and it will all be yours."
Five hundred years?
Yang Pei gifted a thousand-year-old tree! How stingy!
Li Yuan remained unmoved.
"Brother Li, are you still not satisfied? Isn't that a bit too much to ask?"
"The youngest?"
Li Yuan smiled slightly, "If Huang Wei finds out, I won't have a good time."
"Then why don't you speak?"
Now that things have come to this, Yang Zhong has also lost his patience. He personally stepped forward and even offered such benefits, but he didn't expect that they wouldn't give him face. The smile on his face has completely disappeared.
"How about this!"
Li Yuan hooked his hand under the chin of the woman on his left, "I don't need the person, but I need a thousand-year-old medicinal herb, just one will do."
What's the use of a woman being beautiful?
It was just the last shudder!
Great medicines, especially those that are thousands of years old, are what he values most!
"Brother Li, you have quite the appetite! Aren't you afraid of overeating?"
Yang Zhong narrowed his eyes, his anger evident. This medicine, which takes a thousand years to produce, is something even the Yang family cannot produce in large quantities!
"Then forget it!"
Li Yuan stood up abruptly, "I can't stand this atmosphere anymore, so let's pretend I never showed up tonight."
"An 800-year-old tree!"
"This is the greatest sincerity I can offer!"
But Li Yuan acted as if he hadn't heard and walked straight outside.
If it's a thousand years, it's a thousand years; not even a year less is acceptable.
Seeing Li Yuan leave, Yang Zhong could no longer hold back. He slammed his hand on the table, and with a crash, the table shattered into pieces, spilling a table full of dishes all over the floor. The four women were also terrified.
"Shut up!"
Yang Zhong roared, and the next moment he roughly pulled a woman in front of him, pressing her head down, "Stop getting angry!"
On the carriage.
"I missed out on an 800-year-old medicinal herb..."
'
"Should Yang Pei compensate me?"
"hehe!"
Li Yuan laughed as he spoke, but Yang Zhong was not as good as Yang Pei.
"No, we'll have Liu He give them special attention again!"
A wicked glint appeared in his eyes.
Why are you so late today?
Wang Xiulan asked, not out of impatience, but because she was worried about returning late.
"The Southern Police Station is quite busy!"
"Next time I come back late, you guys eat first."
Li Yuan sat down, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat heartily.
I'm really hungry.
"nonsense!"
Wang Xiulan rolled her eyes at him. Li Yuan is the head of the household now, how could they possibly eat first?
Qiu Yun sat down, and the next moment her nose twitched and her brows furrowed slightly.
"Girl, eat!"
Seeing that she hadn't touched her chopsticks, Wang Xiulan immediately spoke up.
"Okay, Auntie!"
"You should eat too!"
After finishing the meal.
Qiu Yun took the dishes to the kitchen to wash.
Wang Xiulan looked puzzled. "Qiu-ya was acting a bit strange just now?"
"Is there?"
Li Yuan stood up and stretched. "No, right?"
"I'm going to brew the medicine now."
He then walked out of the main hall.
"Mother, I didn't notice either!"
Li Jun was eating candy. Now that life is better, he has also developed some bad habits like children, such as liking to eat sweets.
"Keep eating!"
"Your teeth are rotten, you can't eat anymore!"
"oh!"
Li Jun reluctantly spat the candy in his mouth into his hand, which was sticky with saliva and still stringy... Finally, he carefully wrapped it in oil paper.
"From now on, you can only eat one piece a day."
"I'll ask your brother later if you should go to school!"
"ah"
"Clang!"
Li Yuangang walked into the kitchen and heard the sound of a bowl breaking. "What happened?"
He walked over.
"Oops, my hand slipped!"
"Is your hand alright?"
"No, what a waste of a bowl!"
Qiu Yun felt a pang of heartache; the bowl was brand new. She bent down to clean up the broken pieces, but Li Yuan stopped her, saying, "Let me do it. Don't hurt yourself."
After quickly tidying up, Li Yuan remembered what Wang Xiulan had just said and asked, "Is something on your mind?"
Qiu Yun hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "You smell nice."
