The sun was about to set on the top of the mountain.
Duke Yuwu's family and Marquis Geqi's family were the first to leave.
After all, the two young misses were very unhappy and were about to fight. No one could say anything.
"Ta Ta Ta…"
Qiao Ji shook the reins and let Flying Shadow get close to Ferlin.
He asked in a deep voice," Uncle Ferlin, what's with the Young Miss 'business?”
"Eldest Miss's business is bought by herself. It doesn't belong to the family's business. No matter how much money is spent, no one dares to say anything bad about it.”
Ferlin seemed to see the young man's worry and said softly," Don't worry. The young miss is a very smart person. As long as she knows who is causing trouble, she will solve the problem quickly.”
"What businesses do you have?" Qiao Ji wouldn't think things too simple.
It did not belong to the family business, but it also relied on the family's power and channels. This part could not be excluded.
"Eldest Young Miss 'most important business is wine.”
Ferlin licked his lips and said," It's a kind of ale. It's twice as strong as the wine sold in the market. It's very popular with nobles and knights.”
"The intensity is doubled?" Qiao Ji blinked.
He suddenly remembered the wine he drank with Diana in the colosseum, the kind of drink that looked like fruit juice.
If the intensity was doubled, it would only be about 15 degrees. Wasn't this beer with a higher alcohol content?
"What do you mean by double? This is already a fine wine." Ferlin said unhappily.
He then sighed." Recently, a wine that's stronger than Miss's wine appeared in the market and snatched away a lot of shares.”
"What is the price of Young Miss 'wine?”Qiao Ji didn't argue about what strong alcohol was.
"A barrel of 300 catties of wine is sold as: 1 gold coin and 5 silver coins." Ferlin said without hesitation.
"So expensive?" Qiao Ji's eyes widened.
It was equivalent to 5 copper coins per 500 grams of wine, which was seven times more expensive compared to the 7 copper coins per 500 grams of ordinary wine.
10 copper horns =1 copper coin.
Qiao Ji finally understood why the young miss was so rich. She was selling high-end wine, just like Mao's wine.
"It's alright. One bottle is sold for 7 copper coins in the market, so it's fine to drink a bottle occasionally.”
Ferlin shrugged and said happily," We're the guards of the young miss. We'll pay 5 copper coins per bottle.”
"..." Qiao Ji fell silent. He had found another business opportunity.
If he could make white wine and sell it at ten times the price per catty, it should be possible, right?
Ferlin saw that the young man was silent and thought that Joe would think that he was a slave and didn't have much money to buy wine.
He comforted her gently," If you want to drink it, it might be cheaper to find the Missy…"
Ferlin suddenly reacted.
If the young man really wanted to drink, did he need to buy it?
With the Miss's love for him, she would directly send him a few large barrels of wine.
"Damn it." For the first time, Ferlin felt envious.
"Forget it. Didn't you say that Miss hated the smell of alcohol?”Qiao Ji shook his head.
" If it were you, the young miss might…"
Ferlin's tone was a little uncertain, and the rest was unclear.
Maybe he wouldn't hate her?
Qiao Ji chuckled." You said it yourself.”
The two of them chatted casually until they smelled the stench and immediately shut up.
"Ta Ta Ta…"
The guards didn't dare to stop the carriages as they entered the Imperial City.
Qiao Ji rode his horse and scanned the surroundings. He found some familiar faces and some incongruous details.
He casually approached Ferlin and lowered his voice," Uncle, I found someone following us.”
"Are you sure? How many people are there?" Ferlin's body tensed up.
"The exact number of people is not certain."
Qiao Ji's expression was serious as he pointed out something that was amiss." But we found four people that we met in the inner city's Dream Fragrance Residence and near the blacksmith shop. Now, they have also appeared in the outer city.”
If one or two people could be a coincidence, then four people appearing in the outer city was suspicious.
"Point out the person and prepare to make a move.”
Ferlin raised four fingers, ready to nip the danger in the bud.
The four knights saw the gesture and went forward to listen to the order.
"The first one is a bearded man wearing a gray hat.”
Qiao Ji nodded and said," The second one is Scarface..."
"Do you hear me clearly? Capture him alive." Ferlin ordered sternly.
"Yes." The four knights nodded.
"Do it." Ferlin ordered and pulled the reins to turn the horse around.
He looked around and immediately found one of the targets. He spurred his horse forward.
The four knights followed closely behind.
Qiao Ji waved his hand to stop the carriage and rode close to the door of the carriage.
"What is it?" Eve lifted the curtain, revealing her delicate face.
Qiao Ji said softly," Someone was following us. Uncle Ferlin went to deal with it.”
"You discovered it?" Eve's golden eyes stared at the young man.
"Yes." Qiao Ji did not deny it.
"I'll remember your contribution."
Eve raised his hand and played with the hair beside his ear. He asked softly," Is there anything you want?”
"No, Miss has already given me a lot of rewards today.”Qiao Ji smiled and looked at the young miss.
"Humph! A reward is a reward."
Eve was a little unhappy. She pursed her pink lips." I'm giving you something for free.”
"I see."
Qiao Ji said lightly," Then there's no need for a reward. Miss, just keep giving me things."”
"You wish." Eve glanced at him in a coquettish manner.
"Cough cough…I've caught him."
Qiao Ji saw the knights escorting four people over.
Ferlin came forward and reported," Miss, we caught four spies.”
"Why did you capture me?"
"Is there any law in the Imperial Capital? Can nobles arrest people as they please?”
"I'm innocent. I'm a good person.”
"Oh…"
“……”
The four of them had just started crying and making a ruckus when they were skillfully gagged by the knight.
"Bring him back for interrogation." Eve said coldly.
"Yes."
