“It’s a deal!”
Luo Zhan understood very well, and the corners of his lips curled up, revealing a cunning smile similar to that of a fox.
“It’s a deal!”
Su Qingluo clapped her little hands, grinning, and exchanged glances with Luo Zhan. Both of them saw the satisfaction in each other’s eyes.
Late that night, at the Thousand-Mechanism Pavilion.
“Pavilion Master, that little girl indeed has some skills. I watched her play a tune that attracted numerous birds. It was truly remarkable.”
Luo Zhan stood respectfully in front of a young man wearing a silver mask, describing in detail what he had seen in Woniu Village that afternoon, without leaving out any detail.
“Have you investigated her background?”
The young man took off the mask, revealing a face with charming eyebrows and eyes, a mixture of wickedness and androgynous beauty. In the depths of his eyes, a sharp glint flashed.
“We have investigated, but the trail was lost near Capital City.”
Luo Zhan furrowed his eyebrows slightly and replied solemnly, “I also found that another force is investigating her, seemingly from the Imperial Court.”
“It’s not surprising that the Imperial Court is investigating her since she saved a Female Official not long ago.”
The young man’s eyes grew cold, “This girl is exceptionally intelligent and by no means ordinary. The tale of the Fortune Child is just an excuse meant to deceive others. You must uncover her background before other forces do.” “Yes, I will send someone to further investigate.”
Luo Zhan took his leave, and before he left, he asked, “Pavilion Master, what about the bamboo flute?”
“Since she wants to make her move, let her.”
The young man’s provocative eyes flashed with a touch of charm, “Issue an order to send invitations far and wide, inviting renowned musicians from all around to gather in Xuzhou City for the Flute Appreciation Banquet.”
“Yes!”
Having received a clear answer, Luo Zhan had no objections and respectfully left the room.
The Flute Appreciation Banquet held in Xuzhou City was organized by the
Jufeng Trading Company, which was reputed as the first trading company of the Seven Kingdoms. Renowned musicians from the Seven Kingdoms were invited, making the event as grand and lively as the Empress’s 40th birthday.
Famous musicians from the Seven Kingdoms regarded participating in this banquet as an honor and came in droves.
Moreover, news of the event reached the scholars and nobles of various countries who, unwilling to be left out, came uninvited in luxurious carriages with their beautiful companions. For a time, handsome men and pretty women flocked to Xuzhou City, making the atmosphere extraordinary.
On the third day of the Flute Appreciation Banquet, someone finally played the bamboo flute, attracting hundreds of birds to gather around, causing a sensation.
However, what shocked everyone was that the person who attracted the birds was not one of the famous musicians, but a talented and beautiful 10-year-old boy from Qi Kingdom.
This young boy gained fame early, having a magnificent literary talent and exceptional beauty, and earned the title of the First Prince of Qi Kingdom at the age of ten.
This time, playing the bamboo flute and attracting hundreds of birds to gather around caused an unprecedented sensation. Consequently, his name became known throughout the Seven Kingdoms.
The enormous success of the Flute Appreciation Banquet had nothing to do with the small village hidden in the mountains. Su Qingluo continued to enjoy herself in the woods while Luo Zhan came to Woniu Village again half a month later.
As promised, Su Qingluo offered Luo Zhan the bamboo flute crafted by her mother and tuned by herself, bearing the Bamboo Melody symbol, to be auctioned. She also signed a long-term cooperation agreement with him.
Through the publicity of the Flute Appreciation Banquet, bamboo flutes bearing the Bamboo Melody symbol became a fad. Renowned musicians scrambled to purchase them, and even scholars and nobles from various countries who loved the sound of flutes joined the frenzy.
The auction price of these exquisite bamboo flutes continued to rise, showing a trend of becoming more and more popular.
Su Qingluo insisted on following the route of producing high-quality products, instructing Li Xiu’e to meticulously produce and limit each batch to three flutes per month.
Naturally, Li Xiu’e agreed wholeheartedly, immersed in the joy of making each exquisite flute every day.
Since then, Su Hu and his wife produced bamboo flutes, which were sold by the Jufeng Trading Company. Their monthly income was no less than a few hundred taels of silver, making their lives increasingly prosperous and fulfilling, just as Su Hu had said..
