u want your houses to stand strong, you'll have to put in the effort yourselves. Whether you spend the winter snuggled up on a warm kang (traditional Chinese stove) or shivering in a leaky shack is en...Lu Zonghe and Jia Xu saw this and also found it amusing.

Lu Zong said, "Jia Ren, brother, you are so kind to your junior brother, we all want to be your junior brother!"

Zhi Min and Xiu Jie also had their own horses and wanted to join in the fun with Mao Ge'er and Guo Wen Hao.

Here, it's bustling with activity. To outsiders, it seems enviable, but in Liu Kui and Wang Sheng's eyes, it's jealousy that threatens to burst their hearts!

Especially Wang Sheng, seeing that Mr. Mo Mei and the others kept looking at the Li brothers, he gnashed his teeth in hatred.

Then, he suddenly stood up and shouted loudly: "I don't accept this, I want to challenge, add a game!"

The garden fell silent for a moment, then burst back into life.

Some people think Wang Sheng is overreaching, some think he's a clown jumping around, and some just watch the excitement without getting involved…

Mr. Mei and the others looked at each other, but made no move to stop him.

After all, the audience in the stands were all young people, and what they lacked most was arrogance.

Disagree

Then let's have a competition. We don't need them to shine either way.

"Well then, who do you want to challenge And what's the wager" Mr. Mo Mei stroked his beard and asked.

Wang Sheng's triangular eyes swept over the Li family, and in a moment of crisis, he also had a plan.

I challenge the Li family, my shop is the wager.

"If the Li family wins, my general store on Commercial Street will belong to them. But if I win, the White Cloud Pavilion will be mine!"

Li Ge'er sneered upon hearing this and retorted, "Wang brother, did you leave home before waking up and forget to bring your brain"

"How much is your little shop worth Between the clouds, I'd say it's enough to buy five shops. "

You want to hold a competition, you've got to put up some real stakes! You can't just throw out a shoddy little stall and expect people to be impressed.

"You..." Wang Sheng's face flushed red.

He was indeed using psychological pressure, thinking that if the Li brothers agreed, his loss wouldn't matter much, but his victory would be a huge advantage.

I don't want to, the Li brothers are not easy to fool. As soon as they spoke, they saw through his plan.

At this time, Mr. Mo Mei also said: "This dowry is indeed unequal. If the Wang family can't come up with an estate like Baiyun Guan, then they shouldn't compete."

Everyone also laughed derisively, which made Wang Sheng's face turn dark.

He pulled Liu Kui aside and shouted, "Liu Kui's shop is right next to my general store. Together, the two shops are worth just as much as Baiyun Inn!"

Liu Kui was so startled that his eyes widened, and he immediately wanted to retort.

His family's shop was a embroidery workshop, spanning two floors with a spacious courtyard behind it. It was worth considerably more than Wang Sheng's sundry goods store.

And that shop was run by his father, it wasn't in his name at all.

If he gambled away all his money, his father would certainly kill him!

Wang Sheng cut him off, speaking in a low voice, "Don't worry, I have a way, I will definitely win the competition!"

Liu Kui was still hesitating, but the cat brother in front of him was delighted. He said to his brothers, "Isn't my sister going to open a fresh food store

"

"I couldn't find a good place in the shopping street, we won these two shops, just right to give to my sister!"

Li Ge'er was also moved, but Jia Ren frowned and said, "Wang Sheng proposed a competition and offered such a heavy bet, he must have something to rely on."

"Among the clouds is my younger sister's painstaking effort over the past few years. The big household is still that one in the palace, so we can't take any risks."

"Oh...so we can't compete" Meowge was a little disheartened.

Wangjia's sundry shop, he hadn't paid attention to it, but Liu Kui's embroidery workshop, he occasionally patronized.

If I could win it, I'd give it to my sister. She would be so happy...

Li Ge'er thought for a moment and said, "Big brother, why don't we use Xianke as the head decoration If my father knew, he definitely wouldn't stop us."

"Even if we lose, step back ten thousand paces, we give them the facade of Xiankelai, but the chefs, waiters and recipes are still ours. We find a new place to open and continue doing business as usual."

Jiarren remembered the pitiful look on his sister's face when he left home. If he brought her a big gift back, she would definitely be happy.

So, he nodded and said, "If we lose the Xi'an Ke Lai, I will personally apologize to my uncle and make up for the money."

"No, Big Brother, I'm fine with Meow and me making up." Li Ge quickly shook his head.

On the other side, Lu Zong laughed and said, "You brothers are too eager to please others, diminishing your own prestige."

"Wang Sheng, that idiot, no matter who you choose as his opponent, he will win!"

When everyone heard this, they all burst into laughter.

Jiarren walked to the center of the field this time and made his intentions clear.

The Big House in the White Clouds belonged to the Emperor, something everyone in the new city knew. Using the White Clouds as a headpiece wouldn't be appropriate at all.

Although Wang Sheng was unfortunate, he didn't have the courage to persevere.

The most important thing is that XiankeLai is also doing well, with a booming business and a good location. It's another gold mine.

Jiā Rén suggested writing the competition as a document, with clear rewards and penalties, and having both parties sign their names to prevent the loser from backing out.

Mr. Mo Mei, with a few amusing anecdotes, also signed as a witness.

Wang Sheng signed with gusto. Liu Kui, resigned to his fate, signed as well, but his heart felt like it was lodged in his throat.

Luckily, Wang Sheng quickly spoke up and said, "I'm only one person, while your Li family has so many. Isn't it fair for me to choose the opponent"

Everyone nodded in agreement, it did make sense that a group shouldn't fight one person.

Li Ge and Mao Ge also nodded. Jia Ren looked at Wang Sheng's expression, as if he had succeeded in a scheme, and his heart skipped a beat. He just wanted to speak, but Wang Sheng was already impatiently pointing behind them and shouting: "I choose him!"

Jia Ren's three brothers were behind Zheng Liu, Zheng Qi, and Gu Li who came to watch the fun.

Gouli might have been a little chilly, and as he took a step forward by chance, Wang Sheng's finger pointed at him from the air.

He was a little surprised, but he still walked out and bowed to the crowd, saying: “I am Li's manager. I only know a few characters and can’t write poems.”

The pavilion was deathly silent, everyone stunned by Wang Sheng's audacity.

Gu Li often traveled outside, his skin tanned from the sun. He wore a gray set of jacket and pants that was clean and neat. His eyebrows were thick and his eyes large; he was quite handsome.

But he lowered his head slightly, bowing respectfully. He looked every inch the honest, hardworking, and loyal servant!

Even if he reaches a position of authority, he might just be smart.

But when it comes to composing poetry, no matter how hard one tries, they cannot compare to Wang Sheng, who is steeped in the classics.

Wang Sheng bypassed the three brothers of Jia Ren and chose Li's servants. He practically had it in the bag!

Then Mao Ge was furious, shouting at Wang Sheng, "Wang Sheng, have you any shame"

"What's this, challenging us three brothers You pick on the head of our household!"

Wang Sheng sneered, "The document only says that I'm fighting one of your Li family members, it doesn't say that all three of you brothers have to fight. Is this official not a member of your Li family"

Wang Sheng originally chose Zheng Qi because Zheng Qi was thin and looked around nervously. He seemed the least like a scholar.

Who would have thought, it was Guli who stepped forward at this moment, disrupting his plan.

But Gu Li is in charge, and to be frank, he only knows a few characters. There's no need to switch then.

He will win very easily on both sides!

Mr. Mo Mei, after carefully reviewing the documents several times, did not find any mention that the person had to be one of the three Li Jia Ren brothers.

They all frowned.

Could it be that the Li family's mute is taking advantage of this situation

Could it really be that Wang Sheng, this despicable villain, gets away with it
