The ninth day of March in the seventeenth year of Daqian Hexing.

early morning.

Su Shi's bedroom was open, and people were coming and going in front of the door, because everyone in the general's residence was curious about Second Young Master Su.

Everyone in the General's Mansion knew that Mr. Su would get up very early every day, and then do some strange exercises in his room. After the strange exercises, he would run around the General's Mansion.

Finally, exhausted, he crawled back like a dog.

Now Second Young Master Su is doing that kind of weird exercise and counting weird numbers, so people in the General's Mansion will always pass by Second Young Master Su's bedroom intentionally or unintentionally.

After Su Shi finished exercising, his face was as red as a freshly steamed drunken shrimp, and he looked as if he had just been fished out of the water.

After adjusting his breathing, Su Shi started his morning run.

When he returned to the general's mansion, his legs were trembling, like a baby that had just learned to walk.

Although the image was a bit embarrassing, Su Shi was still satisfied with himself.

Maybe it's because this body has a good foundation, so after these few days of exercise, it gradually regains its youthful vitality.

Breakfast at the General's Mansion is monotonous and simple, with cakes, porridge and soup remaining the same all year round.

"Is our General's Mansion very poor?"

Su Shi said while eating cakes and drinking soup.

"Why do you say that?" Su Zhou said lightly.

Su Shi sighed and said, "Don't you feel very nutritious if you eat these three things every day?"

"do not think so."

Su Zhou ate very slowly, chewing every bite carefully, but Su Shi was different, he ate very hastily.

"You are very busy?"

Su Zhou frowned. He was dissatisfied with Su Shi's way of eating and felt that he was wasting food.

"What can I do to be busy? I just exercised too much in the morning and am hungry."

Su Zhou said calmly: "You are not busy, why did you come back so late yesterday?"

Su Shi sighed: "It's not just about business."

"Flower shop?"

Su Shi nodded: "Yes."

Su Zhou asked calmly: "How was the discussion?"

"It wasn't a good conversation."

"No deal?"

Su Shi answered honestly: "Yes."

This was unexpected by Su Zhou. In his opinion, it was strange that this business deal could be concluded.

"Then what are you going to do next?"

"wait."

"What are you waiting for?" Su Zhou asked curiously.

"Waiting for the reply from the flower shop." Su Shi said: "The flower shop will reply to me within seven days."

Su Zhou looked at him puzzled: "What should I reply to you? Isn't the business between you two not concluded?"

Su Shi sighed: "Although the business has not been concluded, the flower shop has made a suggestion."

"Suggestion? What suggestion?" Su Zhou frowned.

"The manager of the flower shop suggested that I cancel the bet and let her make peace."

Su Zhou picked up a cake, tore it into several pieces and put them in the soup, and then said: "This gamble can be avoided. Then there is no problem with the chief's suggestion. Do you agree?"

"I agreed, but I just added some conditions."

Su Shi touched his stomach and said he couldn't eat any more. Su Zhou looked at the remaining half of the cake and looked a little unhappy.

"What conditions did you add?"

Su Shi said calmly: "The bet can be cancelled, but Dongyuan Zhiku needs to pay me a shop and one hundred thousand taels of silver."

Su Zhou was drinking soup. When he heard Su Shi's words, a mouthful of soup spurted out of his mouth, and then he kept coughing.

"What did you say?"

When he finally stopped coughing and looked at Su with a shocked expression, he couldn't help but ask loudly.

At this time, Su Shi was far away from him and was constantly wiping the soup on his clothes.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and the soup didn't spray on his face.

"Do you need such a big reaction? It's just a shop and one hundred thousand taels of silver."

Su Zhou stood up and looked at Su Shi. Su Shi couldn't help but take a few steps back, then looked at him doubtfully and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"You don't have a fever, do you? Did your brain get burned out?"

Su Shi asked angrily: "Are you my eldest brother? How could you curse your own brother like this?"

Su Zhou sighed: "Since you haven't burned out your brain, how dare you propose such a ridiculous condition. It's only one hundred thousand taels of silver, you are so loud!"

Su Shi said disapprovingly: "This is for the sake of the owner of the flower shop, otherwise I would have opened my mouth."

Su Zhou's whole body suddenly became stiff. He looked at Su Shi in disbelief: "Is it possible that the principal is willing to agree to such ridiculous conditions?"

Su Shi muttered: "This is already the minimum requirement. It would be strange if she doesn't agree."

Su Zhou stood speechless on the spot. He suddenly wondered if the owner of the flower shop was an idiot for actually agreeing to such ridiculous conditions.

And he agreed on behalf of Dongyuan Zhiku.

A chill suddenly rose up on Su Zhou's body, and his eyes were filled with anger, because he thought of the possibility that the owner of the flower shop was treating Su Shi like an idiot.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for anyone to agree to such ridiculous conditions, let alone for his opponent.

Unless the person takes the wrong medicine.

He couldn't help but sigh, and then looked at Su Shi sadly.

Su Shi looked at him in confusion: "Why are you looking at me like this?"

"Don't you think there's something wrong with the manager of the flower shop?"

When Su Shi mentioned the manager of the flower shop, he immediately thought of the woman behind the screen and her voice as sweet as an oriole.

Su Shi sighed: "How can there be no problem? I still haven't figured out how the owner of the flower shop can be the shopkeeper of Hechang Tower."

Su Zhou looked at him inexplicably: "When did Huangfu Jie become the shopkeeper of Hechang Tower?"

"Huangfu Festival? What does it have to do with him?" Su Shi sighed: "Anyone with a little bit of intelligence can see that this Huangfu leader is just a puppet."

Su Zhou was stunned at first, then suddenly his mind was shaken, as if he understood something, and then he looked at Su Shi in disbelief.

But Su Shi was still thinking that it was the mysterious woman and didn't notice Su Zhou's expression for a moment.

The room suddenly fell into silence.

After a long time, Su Cai came back to his senses and looked at Su Zhou: "What did you want to say to me just now?"

At this time, Su Zhou's expression had returned to normal, and he said calmly: "I want to tell you that an invitation was sent yesterday, inviting you to attend today's Jinghu Poetry Festival."

"Jinghu Poetry Club? What the hell is that? Why did you invite me?" Su Shi was not interested in the poetry club at all, so he shook his head and replied feebly: "I won't go."

Su Zhou seemed to have expected Su Shi's attitude and did not force him. He stood up slowly. However, when he was about to walk out of the room, he just said: "I heard that Qin Nan was also invited to participate in today's meeting." Jinghu Poetry Club."
