Chapter 62: The Man in the Room
Wen Qu has a lot of things to do, and the more he gets to know him, the more difficult Long Yun'er becomes, how heavy is the burden on his shoulders? He has too many jobs that can only be done alone, and he can't find someone to share his worries, and it is highly confidential, and no one can know it, or no one has the ability to take over, and it must be done by him himself.
Long Yun'er hopes that she can help as soon as possible and live up to his choice, but at least in the moment, this is not possible, the only thing that can be done is not to cause trouble to him, so if he has an order, she will not question it and follow it obediently.
After coming to the Wen Mansion for a few days, she walked out of the secret room for the first time, and it was the old housekeeper Wen who was responsible for arranging everything for her, it was said that this was the treatment of top VIPs, and only the princes and other nobles were personally arranged by the old housekeeper all the way.
"You have a special status, the head of the family has instructed you not to move around with your original appearance, you have to change your appearance, and you have to order a new identity certificate for you......"
Wen cared and muttered: "The fake certificate of the descendants of the Long family is not easy to handle, and it is difficult to have loopholes...... Which house are you in the Long family, and who is your father?"
"Well, my father is carrying ...... dragon"
"Weiyuan Houlong carrier?" Wen who led the way before the trip cared, his voice suddenly rose, like stepping on dog shit, and then the old housekeeper turned back in shock, "Your father is Weiyuan Hou......?" Is it Long Xian'er?"
"Yes...... yes......"
Long Yun'er timidly admitted, a little surprised, Wen Quzhi didn't make it clear, the Wen family and his own family have old grudges, this old man originally only thought that he was a member of the Long family, so he had a cold attitude, but now that he knows that he is an "enemy", how can he have a good face?
"Long Xian'er's sister ......"
The old man's expression was distorted, he looked at Long Yun'er's gaze, ** wrote "woe water" nakedly, and hurried a few steps, as if he was going to persuade the head of the family, but before he stepped out, he immediately paused, and let out a long sigh, the whole person was like a deflated ball.
"That's it, the head of the family is never something that others can persuade, he has his own reasons for doing things, since he has made this judgment and brought you back, he must have thought about it many times, and he doesn't need to say much about it. ”
The old housekeeper raised his head, first with a straight face, but quickly adjusted his attitude and tried to make his expression look gentle, "Miss Long is the person brought back by the head of the family, and in the Wen family, there will be no voices that question him or differ from him, so you will be respected by us, if there is any need in the future, please do not hesitate to command." ”
"Uncle Zai is polite, and I want to ask you for more guidance later. ”
In front of this old housekeeper, Long Yun'er didn't dare to be self-righteous at all, although in many families, no matter how powerful the steward is, she is a slave, but she has never been a person who can put on a master's shelf, not to mention, the meaning of this old housekeeper to Wen Quai, if he is a family, he should be respected.
So, under the arrangement of the old housekeeper, someone first came to help Long Yun'er dye her hair and change her appearance, the Wen family is engaged in human trafficking, in order to make the goods look better, there is never a shortage of such professionals, not to mention dyeing hair and changing the appearance, even the operation of changing fingerprints has to be done.
After these are taken care of, it is to purchase some new clothes for Long Yun'er, with the wealth of the Wen family, they usually directly find well-known cloth shops and tailors in the city, and directly go to the house to tailor a batch of clothes, but ......
"Miss Long and the head of the house ......" the old man thought for a while, and said, "Are you already the head of the house?"
"Uh, I...... Not yet...... I mean, of course not!"
Long Yun'er answered in a mess, and his actual mood was also very messy, of course he and Wen Qubing were innocent, but in terms of relationship, he was a female slave he legally bought, if he asked for anything, he couldn't refuse, just ...... Will he mention Mom?
"Since it's not, then you can only buy clothes outside. Wen said seriously: "In the past, only the people in the young master's room could enjoy the treatment of going directly to the house to make clothes, and if you are not, you can withdraw money from the account room and buy another outside." ”
"Huh, I remember...... The Wen family's brother was not married......"
Long Yun'er asked, and immediately realized that this was a stupid question, such as Wen Quai, a character like Wen Quai, even if he is not married, it is impossible that there is no one in the room, in the current world, a man who guards himself like jade is not regarded as a virtue, but ...... It's hard to imagine that Wen Quzhi will have a woman, he has too many secrets, and it is impossible for someone too close to him to exist.
"The woman of the head of the family often changes, and the city is famous, and if the performance is not good, it is sold directly overseas to earn back the initial investment. ”
"Huh?
Long Yun'er was startled and looked at the old butler, but Wen didn't care as if he hadn't said anything, and his face was blank, making it difficult to judge whether this was a joke or not.
followed the old housekeeper out of the Wen Mansion, and the scene outside the mansion made Long Yun'er feel fresh everywhere.
As a noble daughter of a family, she has read many books and seen some of the world, but after all, it is impossible to travel thousands of miles, see and hear extensively, and Lixiada Port is the southernmost part of the empire, the largest amount of trade with overseas, and the most exotic city.
Walking on the streets, the crowd of people coming and going, with a variety of hair colors, pupil colors and skin tones, since the spread of the technology of blood awakening, the hair color and skin color of various ethnic groups have also become more complex, colorful, but it is rare to see the mixed scenes of different ethnic groups and tribes.
"Blue-haired, silver-haired, red-haired, purple-haired...... That's a lot of people here. ”
Nearly half of the pedestrians of all shapes and sizes were business travelers, coming from all over the empire to do business and look for opportunities in this southern port, bringing with them goods from all over the country, as well as different cultures and needs.
What you hear is a variety of dialects and languages, some hawking, bargaining, as well as the singing and music of street performers, some of which have never been heard before.
As long as there is a demand, there will be a market, in order to meet these needs, the commercial energy of Lixiada Port is extremely vigorous, whether it is cloth, equipment, weapons, seeds, groceries, and even restaurants of various ethnic groups, all kinds of transactions, can not be on the table, Lixiada Port has everything, more than a thousand gold coins of the scale of trading, every minute is happening, such energy, only the imperial capital can compare.
Looking up, the wind blowing on the face, with the breath of the sea, people say that the dragon is a creature that belongs to the sea, perhaps because of this reason, he has been growing up in the north, and for the first time he came to the hot and humid south, but he did not feel half uncomfortable, and he felt very refreshing.
"It's not just people, it's fools. ”
Wen cared for a cold sentence, Long Yun'er was stunned, and suddenly felt that there was something strange around her, some extremely subtle touches, which had been ignored before, but now they were clear.
Long Yun'er raised his eyes sharply, a seven or eight-year-old child, was grabbed by the old housekeeper, his hand was groping his waist, and he was about to pickpocket, but Wen Yixin stopped him first.
Wen didn't care about the pickpockets, he let people go casually, and the kid didn't rush back, he disappeared into the crowd in a puff of smoke, he didn't look at it, he just said to Long Yun'er: "This city is glamorous, opportunities are everywhere, but there are also people dying every minute, don't just stare at the visible parts, but also pay attention to those parts that are not easy to see, but they are real, so as to survive here." ”
Long Yun'er didn't understand very much, but she calmed down and looked at it, paying attention to those things that she wouldn't see at first sight, and found that in addition to those glamorous novelties, there were indeed many special existences, some artists who were still wearing a bunch of thick clothes and walking on the road in strange shapes on a hot day, seemed to want to attract attention, but they covered up their true faces, and even ......
"Beast ......"
The word exit attracted the old housekeeper's side eyes, Long Yun'er hurriedly stopped, but also affirmed his own guess that there were inhuman activities in the city, and it was still broad daylight, walking directly on the street.
After the Great War of the Hundred Races, those non-human races were expelled from the empire and inhabited the mountains and wilderness outside the country, although there was no explicit prohibition in the empire, but due to the impact of the war, the inhuman people would not run into the empire casually, but here...... They swaggered out into the streets, although their appearance was covered, but they were not so hidden, and most of the people around them knew it, but they ignored it......
Lixiada Port is indeed a diversified city where opportunities and dangers coexist, and it operates at the same time in the light and in the shadow!
Recognizing this, Long Yun'er suddenly heard a faint shout of "Arrived" in the distance on the left hand side, I don't know what it is, and I can't hear it very clearly, but ...... The whole scene was chaotic at once.
The street was crowded with people and was very noisy, and the cry "Arrived" was not shouted very loudly, and should not have attracted too many people's attention, but, as if many had been waiting for the shout, they rushed to the dock as soon as they heard it.
I can't say the specific number of people, but from the scale, Long Yun'er believes that several neighborhoods have moved, and a large number of people have rushed to the dock area, Long Yun'er is about to ask the old housekeeper, what is the situation? The crowd of people who came over in anger had washed her and Wen Youxin away, and in the blink of an eye, she was pushed to somewhere by the crowd.
"Ah...... Oops!"
Such a big person, he would still get lost, Long Yun'er felt embarrassed, but he didn't panic, anyway, Wen Mansion is a well-known place, you can go back if you ask someone, what really matters is that you don't show your whereabouts and be found out, that's really troublesome.
However, it seems that the trouble is not that if I hope that there is no one, I will not find it......
"Hey, the beautiful lady over there, you look so good, do your parents know? Hehe, I want to drink when I'm bored, I can afford you, how about going to the side for a drink?"
The tone of the light pick, it seemed to be a street hooligan, Long Yun'er didn't sense a clear threat, the other party's strength should be limited, she secretly shook the brass sheath on her wrist, a little more confidence, and turned her head around.
"Who are you, and what do you want to do?"
