Ao Yue's eyes fell on Jiang Lin and he exclaimed, "What a beautiful lady I feel pity for. Beautiful lady, do you have a partner? Do you feel lonely?"
He totally ignored the fact that he had a new partner standing next to him.
Ziqi and Zongyu's faces turned ugly in an instant.
Ziqi said in a deep voice: "Yue'er, didn't you say that you only love me?"
Ao Yue asked doubtfully, "Did I say that? I clearly said I love you. There are so many beauties in the world, and our dragon race has such a long life span. Wouldn't it be a loss to love only one?"
Ziqi: “…”
Jiang Lin looked at the other person's face turning from black to green, with no intention of giving Ziqi any face at all, and laughed happily.
His laughter immediately attracted Ao Yue's attention: "Hey, what's the saying among you humans? As beautiful as spring flowers? That's what it means, beauty, would you consider..."
"He doesn't consider it." An unhappy voice interrupted Ao Yue.
Zong Yu frowned and looked at her: "Don't try to hit on him, or I'll beat you up."
Ao Yue disagreed: "You make it sound like you can beat me here... Wait."
She realized something and looked at Zong Yu in surprise: "The person you are looking for... is it the owner?"
Jiang Lin asked: "Who are you looking for?"
Zong Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly opened his mouth to stop her. However, Ao Yue had already said it straightforwardly:
"I asked him to be my partner before, but he was not happy about it. He said he already had someone he loved and wanted to go find him."
Ao Yue looked at Jiang Lin with regret: "If it were you, you would understand why he rejected me. What a pity, all the beautiful women have partners."
Jiang Lin:
He looked at Zong Yu in confusion.
Master Xiaozong's face flushed red, and he stammered, "Don't get me wrong, I..."
He wanted to say that he was deceiving Long, but Ao Yue would be scared if she heard that.
In desperation, he remembered the contract between them.
Jiang Lin heard someone's anxious voice in his mind: "She kept pestering me and refused to let me go, so I lied to her and said I had someone I liked! Don't get me wrong, I don't like you!"
Jiang Lin understood.
He laughed and said, "It's not a big deal, why are you so anxious?"
Ao Yue looked at the two people's expressions and asked suspiciously, "What are you whispering about?"
Jiang Lin remained calm and composed: "It's not convenient to tell others about the conversation between young lovers."
Ao Yue blinked her eyes to indicate that she understood and didn't ask any more questions.
Jiang Lin looked at Zi Qi, who was standing aside with a green face, and said with a smile: "Princess, are you here to look at something in the shop today?"
Ao Yue then remembered today's business and said cheerfully, "That's right. I've heard people say in Dragon Palace these days that a new store of Shennong tribe has opened in Haicheng, and it has a lot of rare and good things."
She looked around the store with interest. "I heard that the Shennong tribe can grow the most delicious food in the world. Humph, we also have so many delicacies in the East China Sea. I want to see which one is better."
Jiang Lin shook his head and retorted, "The East China Sea is an ocean, and all good things grow in the ocean. We in the Shennong tribe receive gifts from the earth. There is no difference between good and bad food. In terms of taste, each has its own merits."
Hearing this, Ao Yue looked at him carefully and nodded: "There is no difference in food quality, this statement does make sense."
She glanced at Zong Yu with a smile and said, "You are beautiful and have an interesting personality. No wonder this boring guy likes you so much."
Zong Yu's ears turned red again, and he didn't dare to look at Jiang Lin's expression.
Huaiyin stood in the distance eating melon, looking at Xiaozong's appearance, then looking at her own master without even raising her eyebrows.
Oh no. She thought to herself with relief: I'm afraid this melon can be eaten for a long time.
Jiang Lin has always had great confidence in the crops produced by the Shennong tribe.
Moreover, the taste of fruits is usually hard to disappoint. In places like the sea where fruits are scarce, few people can resist such deliciousness.
Sure enough, after Ao Yue tasted several kinds in succession, his eyes lit up.
"Your Shennong tribe is truly amazing," she said. "Although we have a lot of food in the sea, it's mostly meat. How can you grow so many delicious fruits from the land?"
Jiang Lin still smiled: "Nature is a gift from the earth."
Hearing the words "gift from the earth", Ao Yue turned to look at Zi Qi who had been silent up until now, and stabbed him without hesitation, "You seem to be from the Tusu tribe, right? You also live on the mainland, why haven't I heard you talk about these things?"
Ziqi: “…”
He glanced at Jiang Lin indifferently and said sarcastically, "The Shennong tribe has occupied the most fertile land on the continent. We in the Tusu tribe are in a land of ice and snow and cannot grow these delicate fruits."
Jiang Lin laughed, "Of course. We in the Shennong tribe love peace and tranquility. We believe in the greatest sun god and the god of agriculture, His Majesty Yandi, and naturally receive gifts from the earth. The Tusu clan believes in the god of ice and destruction and only likes to plunder others. Even if I give you land, I'm afraid you won't have the time to plant it."
Although there had never been a major conflict between the Shennong tribe and the Tusu tribe, their relationship had always been not very good. No one found it strange that the two sides were targeting each other in this way.
Ao Yue was not interested in any of this. She only came to the conclusion she wanted and stabbed Zi Qi in the back: "So, the Shennong tribe has it, but the Tusu tribe doesn't, right?"
This princess is obviously a simple-minded person, and such people are easy to deal with.
Jiang Lin smiled and said, "The princess is right. What I sell here is far less than one ten-thousandth of the crops in our Shennong tribe. We still have many delicious crops. I will slowly show them to you when I have the chance."
Ziqi felt something was wrong.
He looked at Jiang Lin inquiringly: "The Shennong Tribe is far away from here. How did you manage to keep these things fresh and transport them to the East China Sea?"
Jiang Lin restrained his smile and said calmly: "Who doesn't have some special methods? This is my cooking skill for a living. Brother, you are asking too many questions."
Zi Qi was choked. He looked at Jiang Lin suspiciously, feeling that the person in front of him looked strangely familiar.
A figure vaguely emerged in his mind, but it seemed unlikely.
He suddenly asked, "The Shennong tribe is tall and strong. You said you are from the Shennong tribe, so why are you so thin and look more like... a sea tribe?"
The person he was familiar with was also this thin.
But how could Jiang appear here alone
Jiang Lin: “…”
There is no getting around the issue of height, right
He said coldly: "I am a minor and can still grow."
"Pfft!" Ao Yue looked at Jiang Lin, then looked at Zong Yu, "So they are two little brothers in love, they are quite cute."
Jiang Lin said with a dull face: "Let's continue talking about the product. Don't worry about such unimportant little issues."
Ao Yue said cheerfully: "This is easy. Pack them all up for me. I want them all! Let my father have some too."
Jiang Lin smiled apologetically: "That won't work. I'm a businessman with principles. A customer can only buy things within a fixed amount."
Ao Yue said unhappily: "I'll give you ten times the money."
"This is not a question of money." Jiang Lin changed the subject, "But if His Majesty the Dragon Emperor needs it, I can give you an extra gift."
Ao Yue stared at him with eyes wide open.
Jiang Lin smiled warmly: "Although our Shennong tribe rarely interacts with the East China Sea, I, an ordinary citizen of the Shennong tribe, also know that the dragons in the East China Sea are powerful. They can call the wind and rain and rule the endless East China Sea. The Dragon King is the most powerful person in the world. I am honored to present a gift to the Dragon King."
Ao Yue felt very comfortable all over after hearing this flattery.
She smiled and said, "I have never known your Shennong tribe. I wonder if our dragon tribe has such a good reputation among you?"
Jiang Lin emphasized seriously: "It is a fact that the dragon race is powerful, how can it be called reputation?"
Ao Yue suddenly smiled even more happily.
Zi Qi felt something was wrong. Seeing Jiang Lin walk into the inner room, he walked to Ao Yue and said vigilantly, "Yue'er, don't be fooled by this pretty boy from the Shennong tribe. The Shennong tribe is full of rough men who only know how to farm and hunt. How could they have the time to understand and praise the dragon clan?"
Ao Yue said impatiently: "What can he do to confuse me? If he really wants to confuse me, he can just rely on that face. Why would he need to spend so much effort thinking of other things?"
Ziqi: “…”
I didn't know how to refute this for a moment.
Isn't he relying on his beauty to get close to Ao Yue
At this time, Jiang Lin came out with a pot of flowers, and Ao Yue was immediately attracted by the gorgeous and luxurious flowers.
"I heard from several friends that when they come to buy things from you, they will receive a kind of flower called rose. Is this it?" Ao Yue looked at it in admiration, "It is indeed very luxurious and beautiful."
Jiang Lin shook his head: "No, this is not a rose. This is a peony."
"peony?"
Jiang Lin smiled and said, "Peony is the king of flowers, extremely precious, I can't afford to send it to ordinary guests."
Ao Yue understood what he meant, and a hint of anticipation rose in her heart.
Jiang Lin handed over the exquisite flower pot and said with a smile, "The princess is of noble status, and this pot of red flame is most suitable for her."
"Chi Yan Hua Guang? Is that her name?" Ao Yue took it with surprise and couldn't let it go. "How fitting."
"Yeah." Jiang Lin nodded without any guilt.
In fact, as a straight man with no interest in romance, the only peony varieties he knew about were the famous Yao Huang and Wei Zi.
This name was randomly chosen because the peony's color is like fire.
It turns out that the flowers were worth it.
Ao Yue held the precious peony in her arms and said happily, "The people of your Shennong tribe are really nice. They are good at talking and honest. I will show this flower to my father when I go back. He will definitely like it."
Jiang Lin thought that this girl was too cooperative. Were people in ancient times always so simple
He smiled reservedly, and Ziqi was so jealous that he was about to get angry.
He approached Ao Yue in order to get in touch with the ruling class of the East China Sea.
Jiang Lin guessed correctly that the Tu Su tribe wanted to form an alliance with the East China Sea.
However, the Tusu tribe disagreed, and those old stubborn people were not optimistic about the alliance with the sea tribe. He had no say, and the higher-ups wanted him to produce results first.
What he wanted was to get close to Ao Yue and then get in touch with other people in the Dragon Clan so that he could implement his plan smoothly.
But after working so hard for so long, Ao Yue finally fell in love with him.
He hasn't had the time to do anything yet. This guy from the Shennong tribe, with just a pot of flowers and a store, can indirectly come into contact with the Dragon Emperor
