Myriad Realms Summoning System
Chapter Summary
Don't forget what you promised me?" Shangguan Qingmeng, who was sitting below, narrowed her beautiful eyes as she looked at Xiao Chen who was playing with the Mist Condensing Grass, and it was unknown what she was thinking. I will definitely give you a satisfactory price and will not let Lingyun Commercial Bank suffer any loss." In fact, Shangguan Qingmeng didn't care about this little money. Just when Xiao Chen wanted to chat, Shangguan Qingmeng spoke first: "Master Xiao Chen, if there is nothi...
"Shangguan Wan'er greets His Majesty the Emperor!"
When Xiao Chen appeared in the side hall of the Queen's Palace, a woman in a pink tasseled dress was standing there.
The woman had a tall and slender figure, at least about 1.7 meters tall. If she lived in later times, she would have been a supermodel.
Although her appearance is not as stunning as Diao Chan's, she is of the type that is very pleasing to the eye.
Especially those bright eyes, which occasionally revealed a hint of cunning, proving that this was a very smart woman.
"Are you Shangguan Wan'er?"
Xiao Chen looked at Shangguan Wan'er and asked, his eyes full of curiosity.
"Exactly!"
Shangguan Wan'er had a faint smile on her face as she looked at Xiao Chen and answered.
"Miss Shangguan has come from afar, why don't you be a lady-in-waiting in my palace? How do you think?"
Shangguan Wan'er was summoned by the system. Even if her loyalty was not very high, she would temporarily join him, so there was no need for her to say too much nonsense.
"Then I'd rather obey than be respectful!"
Shangguan Wan'er's smile remained on her face as she nodded.
Xiao Chen didn't know yet how to arrange for Shangguan Wan'er, so he could only let Shangguan Wan'er be a female official for now.
After Shangguan Wan'er left, Xiao Chen turned to look at Diao Chan beside him, and asked, "What do you think of this Shangguan Wan'er?"
Diao Chan thought for a moment and replied, "I'm not sure, but I feel she is very ambitious."
Even Diao Chan could see it, which means Shangguan Wan'er is indeed not a simple person.
It seems that I have to keep a close eye on her.
"Your Majesty, Miss Shangguan requests to see you!" A secret guard walked into the hall and said to Xiao Chen.
"Haha, it seems that your majesty is very lucky. Just now Miss Shangguan left, and now Miss Shangguan is here. It's really enviable."
When Diao Chan heard that it was Shangguan Qingmeng who came to see him, a playful smile appeared on her face.
Xiao Chen was also helpless about this, but Shangguan Qingmeng must have come to him for something important, so he still had to go and meet him.
…
"Ms. Shangguan, long time no see!"
When Xiao Chen arrived at the imperial study, Shangguan Qingmeng was already waiting for him there.
Also coming with her was Shangguan He, who had always been by her side.
"I miss Young Master Xiao Chen, but he has completely forgotten me. He hasn't been to Lingyun Tower for such a long time, so I have to come to find him in person," Shangguan Qingmeng looked at Xiao Chen with a pitiful look on her face.
Xiao Chen knew Shangguan Qingmeng's personality, so he didn't care about her behavior at all.
He asked directly, "Miss Shangguan, how is the preparation of the Condensing Mist Grass going?"
Shangguan Qing dreamed that Xiao Chen ignored her sweet words and rolled her eyes at him in dissatisfaction.
Then, she took out a purple herb from her storage ring and said, "Master Xiao Chen, this is the fog-condensing grass you asked me to find."
When Xiao Chen saw Shangguan Qingmeng take out the mist-condensing grass, his eyes lit up, and then he gently waved his hand, asking Zhang Han to bring the mist-condensing grass.
Zhang Han walked up to Shangguan Qingmeng and brought the Mist Condensing Grass to Xiao Chen.
"Master Xiao Chen, I have helped you get the Condensing Mist Grass as agreed. Don't forget what you promised me?"
Shangguan Qingmeng, who was sitting below, narrowed her beautiful eyes as she looked at Xiao Chen who was playing with the Mist Condensing Grass, and it was unknown what she was thinking.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen handed the Condensing Mist Grass back to Zhang Han, and then said, "Don't worry, Miss Shangguan. If you really encounter any danger, I will definitely help you."
Since Shangguan Qingmeng has kept his promise, there is no need for Xiao Chen to go back on his word.
Shangguan Qingmeng nodded and said, "I heard Uncle Shangguan say before that Master Xiao Chen wanted to cooperate with my Lingyun Company. I wonder how the cooperation will be? Qingmeng is very curious."
This matter is the reason why Shangguan Qingmeng came to the palace in person today.
Being able to make Xiao Chen owe her a favor, she will have a better grasp of dealing with the crises she may face in the future.
Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then he realized that this was indeed the case, so he said, "To be honest with you, Miss Shangguan, there are three main things I want to cooperate with Lingyun Commercial Bank on."
"First, I want to rebuild a palace on the Emperor's Mountain. In addition, I need to build some other buildings. I need the help of Lingyun Commercial Bank."
"Secondly, the cavalry of the Great Zhou Empire is generally short of that horse. I know that Lingyun Commercial Bank sells its goods all over the world, so I hope you can help me buy some dragon horses."
"Third, I'm sure Miss Shangguan also knows that I want to build a college. I want to build a large number of Qinglong College branches in the empire. It's a huge project, and I need your Lingyun Company's help."
Although these things look good, they can be done with money, so Xiao Chen does not intend to worry about them. He just lets Shangguan Qingmeng do it, which means he just has to pay a little more money.
Shangguan Qingmeng smiled and said, "There is money to be made, Qingmeng is of course happy about it, I will immediately contact someone to go to the northern grassland to purchase the dragon horse."
"As for the construction of the academy and the palace, I will send people to do it immediately. Of course, the premise is that Master Xiao Chen can afford it."
Xiao Chen said nonchalantly, "Let's talk business. Miss Shangguan, just go ahead and do it. I will definitely give you a satisfactory price and will not let Lingyun Commercial Bank suffer any loss."
In fact, Shangguan Qingmeng didn't care about this little money. She even gave an organization like Black Ice Platform, which she had spent countless efforts on, to Xiao Chen. Why would she care about these things?
However, she also knew that Xiao Chen did not want to take advantage of her, so she talked to Xiao Chen about money.
After the two men finished discussing business, the atmosphere in the imperial study suddenly became awkward.
As subordinates, Shangguan He and Zhang Han would definitely not interrupt casually, and Xiao Chen and Shangguan Qingmeng seemed to have suddenly run out of topics to talk about.
Just when Xiao Chen wanted to chat, Shangguan Qingmeng spoke first: "Master Xiao Chen, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
Xiao Chen stood up and said, "I'll take Miss Shangguan home."
Shangguan Qingmeng laughed and said, "I am just a little girl, so I don't need your presence as an emperor."
As she spoke, she walked straight out the door.
When she reached the door of the imperial study, she paused for a moment, then turned around and said, "I heard that Master Xiao Chen killed a martial lord from the Luo family and more than a hundred masters from the Heavenly Snake Sect. Is this true?"
A gleam of light flashed across Xiao Chen's eyes. He didn't expect that this woman's intelligence was so well-informed.
He had previously asked Wang Yue to overhaul the Black Ice Platform. Where did this woman get the information?
If Xiao Chen only knew about the battle last night, he would not be curious, but knowing who he killed was not simple.
Shangguan Qingmeng seemed to have seen through Xiao Chen's thoughts, but did not reveal the source of his information. Instead, he reminded him, "Young Master Xiao Chen, please be careful. The Heavenly Snake Cult is not as simple as it appears. The Thirty-Six Priests are just people who have been pushed to the surface."
"Also, there is the Luo family. Although they are much worse than the Heavenly Snake Cult, you killed someone from the Luo family stationed in the Human Emperor Palace, which is another matter."
After saying this, without waiting for Xiao Chen to say anything, he took Shangguan He away.
