Chapter 89 Wait for me, I want to go too
"The distinguished guest will arrive on time, but now, the distinguished guest in my belly can't wait any longer." Xu Luo said as he stood up with a smile.

Princess Changle's bright eyes moved, her red lips slightly parted, as if she was very moved by this sudden decision. She straightened her chest, her jade-like skin looked even more attractive in the sun: "Teacher, wait for me, I want to go too!"

The two walked one after the other towards the newly opened restaurant on the next street. In the afternoon, the sun was shining obliquely. At noon, a horse-drawn carriage drove in with a cloud of dust and stopped in front of the fortune-telling stall. The driver skillfully lifted the curtain, as if foreshadowing the arrival of another distinguished guest.

At this time, Xu Luo and Princess Changle were already sitting in the restaurant, tasting the home-cooked dishes that made the princess' heart move. Her eyes lingered outside the window, but her heart was full of curiosity about the upcoming distinguished guests.

The Buda envoy stuck his head out of the carriage. His strange attire made people laugh, as if the protagonist of a farce had accidentally walked onto the wrong stage. He bent over, looking around cautiously, and suddenly found that Xu Luo's fortune-telling stall was deserted, and he couldn't help feeling a little surprised.

"What's going on? Where is Mr. Han?" He raised his eyebrows and talked to himself in confusion.

Before he finished speaking, a young man dressed as a servant came running over and answered hurriedly, "My Lord, Mr. Han has not returned from lunch yet."

After hearing this, the Buda envoy pondered for a moment and waved his hand: "No need, no need to disturb Mr. Han's dinner. You drive the carriage to the street corner first, I will wait here."

Following his instructions, the carriage slowly drove away, leaving only the Buda envoy and two servants waiting there.

About half an hour later, Xu Luo and Princess Changle came over, chatting and laughing. The atmosphere between them was relaxed and happy. Princess Changle's eyes sparkled, and she smiled as she commented on the dishes of the newly opened restaurant: "The taste is really good, but compared with the master's cooking skills, it is still a little inferior."

She stroked her hair gently, her eyes moving, and then teased, "If you open a restaurant, it will definitely be packed with people. If I were a customer, I would definitely come every day."

Princess Changle's words were playful and seductive, and Xu Luo laughed out loud: "Girl, when did you learn this set of flattery tactics? However, speaking of opening a restaurant, I am really a little tempted."

Xu Luo was thinking, the series of new identities introduced by the Faxun system made him hesitant, especially the option of Mr. Fang in the hall. He dreamed of becoming a businessman who was rich enough to rival a country one day, and he was secretly thinking about it. At this time, Princess Changle opened her red lips and her voice was as clear as an oriole: "Master, look in front of those three warriors, it seems that someone is waiting for you." Xu Luo looked hurriedly, and saw several figures in strange costumes appearing in his sight.

Boss Buda nodded upon hearing this, but he had a bitter smile on his face. Seeing this, Xu Luo couldn't help but laugh and said, "Boss Buda, is there something you can't tell me? Just tell me, maybe I can give you some advice." Buda looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he whispered carefully, "To be honest, Mr. Han, I am also the boss of a large tomb cabinet in Tubo, and he is the real boss. I have already informed Tubo of the deal I made with you. But yesterday, I suddenly received news..."

At this moment, Princess Changle glanced at Xu Luo with charming eyes, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she was quite interested in the situation. Her jade-like earlobes trembled slightly, as if she was listening to some secret. Xu Luo's heart moved, but he saw Buda clenched his fists nervously and continued: "But yesterday's news made me feel nervous, and I always felt that something was wrong..."

Lambuda was at the counter in the lobby, holding the puzzling letter in his hand, looking as if he had just swallowed a fly. "Matthew, this letter is really confusing." He hesitated, frowning. Matthew glanced at him, a smile on his face: "Hey, don't tell me that the boss wants to default on the debt, then don't forget, I won't refund the deposit." Lambuda was so anxious that he kept waving his hands, "No, not the boss, this is not a business!" He sighed and decided to be frank, "Let me be frank, the letter yesterday, there are only two words, 'return soon', I thought about it over and over all night, but I still don't understand what it means." As he spoke, he took out the letter from his arms, unfolded it and handed it to Matthew.

Matthew took it, read it quickly, and then suddenly burst into laughter. The laughter echoed in the lobby, making Lambda even more confused.

"What are you laughing at?" asked Lambuda. He hadn't slept all night, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked a little embarrassed.

Matthew patted his shoulder and laughed, "Lambuda, Lambuda, you've been fooled!"

At this time, the female character Alice walked by. She had a slender waist, light steps, and a hint of cunning in her eyes. She glanced at Lambuda's embarrassment, raised her lips slightly, and chuckled, "Lord Lambuda, sometimes things are not as complicated as you think. Maybe it's just a prank?" When she spoke, the lines of her neck were elegant, and her voice was like the singing of a nightingale, which made people feel happy.

Lambda was stunned, not knowing how to respond for a moment, while Matthew laughed even more happily.

Buda scratched his head in confusion and asked doubtfully: "Li Xiutai, you are not making fun of me, are you? My letter from the lobby counter only said 'come back soon', what's the real purpose behind this?" Li Xiutai smiled and replied mysteriously: "Buda, your stupid head is really a headache. There is actually a good trick hidden in the letter from the head shopkeeper!"

"Haha, Buda, think about it, if the boss really didn't think highly of these two deals, he would have told you everything long ago. But what about now? He only gave you the two words 'come back soon'. Doesn't this clearly mean that he tacitly acknowledges the feasibility of the deal?" Li Xiutai made a thorough analysis.

After hearing this, Buda's face gradually became serious, as if he saw the mystery behind the matter. He nodded and said sincerely: "Sir, I understand, please continue to guide me."

"He has kept in mind the cooperative business that you mentioned to the manager before. If he really didn't want you to succeed, why would he just write these two words? This shows that he is actually eager for you to go back so that he can get things done!" Li Xiutai waved the letter in his hand and said with a smile.

"Besides, there are even deeper secrets here!" As soon as Xu Luo finished speaking, his face gradually became gloomy, as if covered by dark clouds.

The Buda envoy's heart tightened, as if a little rabbit was jumping up and down, and his curiosity reached its peak. This mission to the Tang Dynasty was originally to spy on the truth, but under Xu Luo's clever guidance, he had a personal experience of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

"The strength of the Tang Dynasty is beyond the reach of our Tubo." The Buda envoy thought to himself. The physical display of sweet potatoes and refined salt in front of him made it impossible to ignore the strong financial strength of the Tang Dynasty. How could this be as simple as the rumors said? It was clear that Li Shimin was deliberately hiding his strength to keep the outside world from understanding.
