Chapter 234 The Battle Begins

Xu Yuan deftly counted the silver notes, verifying their amount and authenticity, while Li Junqing sat quietly beside him, eagerly observing.

The private room was silent for a moment, save for the rustling of notes being counted.

After a while,

Xu Yuan looked up.

Li Junqing immediately asked,

"Has the Third Young Master finished counting?"

"Not a penny off, Your Highness. Don't worry, I will make arrangements. After all, everything must be grounded in trust, right?"

Xu Yuan put the counted silver notes into the Sumeru Ring, paused, and then asked with slight interest:

"However, I am quite curious about one thing. Your Highness, how much silver do you usually carry with you when you go out?"

Upon hearing this question, Li Junqing became immediately vigilant:

"What are you trying to do?"

"Don't be nervous, I'm just asking."
