After winning the trust of Princess Duan, you will have the opportunity to board Prince Duan's big ship and ride the wind and waves!

The young man had already anticipated that after Gu Qinlan moved into the palace, given Princess Duan's personality, she would most likely hand over the household chores to her.

Once Gu Qinlan gains power, no matter for what purpose, she will definitely inspect the properties of the palace to ensure that she is fully aware of the situation inside the palace!

All he had to do was pay close attention to Gu Qinlan's movements and he would be able to calculate the best time in advance and set the trap in advance, waiting for Gu Qinlan to fall into the trap.

Xiang Zhu was stunned as he listened to the young man's plan.

She had never imagined that a boy who was only thirteen or fourteen years old could have such a deep mind!

The other party's plan was so thorough and detailed that if it were her, she would probably not be able to figure out the secret at all!

Therefore, Xiang Zhu couldn't help but ask curiously:

"But what if the princess does not intervene in this matter, or helps Shopkeeper Yang suppress it?"

The young man glanced at Xiang Zhu and realized that she was Gu Qinlan's personal maid, so he explained:

"If the princess really does that, then I will naturally choose a new target. Anyway, with Shopkeeper Yang's character, the worst result is just a beating for me."

If Gu Qinlan was not a wise master, why would he curry favor with him?

"It's more than just a beating. Don't you want the wild ginseng? Your family is poor now. Without wild ginseng to exchange for silver, how do you make a living?" Xiang Zhu asked.

Hearing this, the young man scratched his head awkwardly, coughed lightly, and replied:

“That’s not wild ginseng.”

"No?" Xiang Zhu asked in surprise.

Gu Qinlan looked at the "wild ginseng" in the boy's arms and said with a smile:

“That’s Pokeweed.”

Although Smilax glabra is also a medicinal herb, its price is much lower than that of wild ginseng, and its appearance is similar to that of wild ginseng. It is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish them without careful observation.

Gu Qinlan had already recognized the truth when Xiangzhu and the others took out the wild ginseng, so she brought the boy in and interrogated him carefully.

If the young man left with ten taels of silver at that time, perhaps he just wanted to exchange the fake wild ginseng for some silver.

But the boy didn't do that, instead he said something...

This made Gu Qinlan convinced that the young man did all this on purpose.

As incredible as it is, there is no shortage of such geniuses in the world.

Unfortunately, many geniuses often cannot last long, and many of them die when they first show their brilliance.

The young man was observing Gu Qinlan carefully at this time, fearing that she would drive him out.

After all, his plan was discovered, and I'm afraid no master would like such a scheming person.

Gu Qinlan leaned back in her chair, staring at the handsome face of the young man, and said:

"I don't want to pursue your past actions, but if you want to stay with me, I need your absolute loyalty, not your body with me but your heart with Prince Duan. Is this possible?"

After hearing this, the young man showed joy on his face. He looked at Gu Qinlan happily and nodded heavily:

"I promise that from now on I will only serve the princess and obey her orders! I will never lie to her again!"

Although the young man was puzzled, weren't Gu Qinlan and Prince Duan one and the same? What was the difference between his loyalty to Gu Qinlan and his loyalty to Prince Duan?

But since Gu Qinlan asked so, he didn't ask any more questions.

At the beginning, he did embark on this path out of concern for Zheng Dinglian, but at this moment, he was completely conquered by Gu Qinlan's extraordinary temperament!

She is as sharp as a fox, as wise as the bright stars, and has the world in her heart. How can she be compared to those women who live in seclusion?

Gu Qinlan looked at the young man's joyful expression with a gentle gaze, and the corners of her lips could not help but slightly rise. Then she asked nonchalantly:

"What's your name?"

"My surname is Lu, and my name is Jinfeng."

"Lu Jinfeng?"

Gu Qinlan's heart was shocked, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

This name, Lu Jinfeng?

He was the undisputed richest man in the Western Wei Dynasty in the previous life!

His businesses cover all walks of life and everything!

Every business he handles is profitable!

People call him a "walking treasury", not only because of his huge wealth, but also because of his way of making money!

She herself had had several encounters with Lu Jinfeng...

I remember one time, in order to help Ji Yinli improve his status, he urgently needed funds to open up new connections, and had no choice but to urgently sell a store that was not making ideal profits.

At that time, almost no one was interested, and only Lu Jinfeng was willing to bid.

Although because he was in a hurry to sell it, Lu Jinfeng was able to buy it at a very low price.

But later, I heard that once the shop fell into Lu Jinfeng's hands, the value of the shop immediately soared because the government office moved here, and the price more than tripled!

Everyone says that Lu Jinfeng came from a prominent aristocratic family, but no one knows how poor he was when he was young!

Gu Qinlan gazed at the still innocent and worldly-untainted eyes of Lu Jinfeng in front of her, and for a moment she found it difficult to connect him with the image of the wealthy businessman who would become famous in Western Wei a few years later.

But this just proves that Lu Jinfeng is indeed a talented person!

I wanted to test him further, but Gu Qinlan asked solemnly:

"There is no one in charge of Taibai Tower now. If I hand over the entire building to you, can you make Taibai Tower shine again?"

"Leave it to me? Full authority, without reservation?"

At this moment, even someone as meticulous as Lu Jinfeng couldn't help but feel shocked.

Full authority!

Doesn't this mean that he will replace Manager Yang?

"That's right. I will give you all the money that Manager Yang embezzled as start-up capital. But can you guarantee that within just one month, Taibai Tower will become famous in the capital and become a place that everyone flocks to?"

When Gu Qinlan said this, his eyes were as sharp as torches, fixed on the eyes of the young man in front of him.

If the person in front of him is really the former richest man Lu Jinfeng, he will never let himself down!

Lu Jinfeng stared at Gu Qinlan with a serious look, without any hint of joking in his eyes. He immediately suppressed the shock in his heart, bowed deeply to Gu Qinlan again, and said solemnly:

"I will not fail in my mission!"

Lu Jinfeng was confused and didn't understand why Gu Qinlan trusted him so much. After all, they had just met! Moreover, he was only thirteen!

However, he also knew that this was an opportunity given to him by Gu Qinlan, and he must seize it!

Making Taibai Tower famous in the capital within a month sounds like a daunting task, but a fire was ignited in Lu Jinfeng's heart.

The bigger the challenge, the more excited he gets.

After Gu Qinlan handed the box of banknotes to Lu Jinfeng, she patted him on the shoulder gently, then turned and left.

It was not until Gu Qinlan walked out of the door that Lou Donglei could not help but ask:

"Princess, are you really going to hand over Taibai Tower to this young man?"

"Indeed, Princess, I think that boy is smart but still young. Can he do the job?" Xiang Zhu also expressed doubts and questioned Lu Jinfeng's ability.

Gu Qinlan's eyes flashed with a hint of deep meaning, and he said in a deep tone: "No matter success or failure, we should give it a try. If we don't give him a chance, how can we know that he can't bring surprises?"
