Chapter 939: Plan
“Also, the employee from Fortune Restaurant who insulted you will be imprisoned for as long as ten years,” the King said as he looked at Gu Chaoyan, smiling awkwardly.
When he was done speaking, the King asked “Do you think those punishments are enough?”
The King was very smart when he put forward this question.
Gu Chaoyan threw a look at him.
He was a King from a country. When he asked her whether the punishments were proper in this manner, he was basically trying to set her up.
Instead of giving a clear response, she replied calmly, “There are rules and laws in the Feather Mulberry Land, and I believe that the officers from the Ministry of Personnel should be able to handle it well. I believe in the officers, since they are taken to the Ministry of Personnel.”
Hearing her words, the King laughed openly. Then he gestured to Gu Chaoyan that she should drink the tea.
Gu Chaoyan took a sip of the tea, then she put down the teacup calmly. The wine in the Feather Mulberry Land was really tasty, but the tea was indeed not up to standard. However, that was because the climate in the Feather Mulberry Land wasn’t suitable for planting tea leaves, which made the tea quite ordinary.
“Fortune Restaurant has to be shut down now.” The King sighed. “What about the Luo’s, Lady Chaoyan?”
Gu Chaoyan threw a look at the King.
He summoned her to the court, because, she believed, he was very interested in knowing what she was going to do with the Luo’s.
She was from the Saint Divine Land, and engaged with Lord Huai, so she was not going to linger long in the Feather Mulberry Land. Therefore, how her plans were going to look became rather important.
The Feather Mulberry Land, despite being weak, was a country after all, and he was its King.
This future Princess Consort was not on the same level as him, anyway.
The King needed to acquire interests for himself, and it did not matter from whom he received the interests.
If Gu Chaoyan gave the Luo’s to the King, then the King would owe her a favor, which Lord Huai might find practical in the future.
...
The King was confident enough to ask the question.
What a pity. What he did not know was that Gu Chaoyan had never had the intention of doing a favor for the King. Instead, she needed to pass the favor to Prince Muyi.
Gu Chaoyan did not think that the King would return her with any favor.
Gu Chaoyan knew clearly what the King was like, seeing how he treated Prince Muyi and her at the moment.
“The Luo’s is located in the capital of the Feather Mulberry Land, but I am going back to the Saint Divine Land soon, so I will not be able to take care of it well,” Gu Chaoyan said with a frown.
The King nodded, showing a smileon his face.
This lady was smart. She had got the point.
“I heard that all the profits from Fortune Restaurant were given to the national storage.” Gu Chaoyan continued.
The King nodded. “True.”
“But I am a businesswoman, and I am not from the Feather Mulberry Land, so I can’t give the profits to the national storage of the Feather Mulberry Land after all,” Gu Chaoyan said with a frown.
The King’s face suddenly changed.
