Chapter 173 Madam is very pretty
In early February, a caravan departing from the capital arrived at Wanjin City, the most mysterious city in the Western Regions.
This is the base of Wanjin Trading Company in the Western Regions.
Hidden in the yellow sand, there are secret formations and mechanisms that are hard for people to find.
"Greetings to the young master! Greetings to the young lady!" The chief shopkeeper had been waiting in Wanjin City long ago and stepped forward to greet them respectfully:
"As you have instructed, everything is ready. You can enter the Starry Kingdom at any time."
A pair of masked men came out of the carriage.
Nowadays, there are many rumors among the people that Wanjin Commercial Bank is an industry under the command of the Northern King, but no one could have guessed that it was Xie Lingxi.
The chief shopkeeper naturally couldn't guess it, let alone need to guess.
For people like them, no matter who Wanjin Trading Company belongs to, they only obey the orders of the young master.
This is the only One they fear and respect.
The last time he went to meet the King of the North, Xie Lingxi made an identical mask for Jiang Rong based on his style.
It looks like they are obviously a couple.
"Yeah." Xie Lingxi responded.
Wanjin Trading Company has been operating in the Western Regions for many years and has a lot of small countries that it can directly influence and control. According to Xie Lingxi's request, he was given the identity of a noble of a small country in the Western Regions.
This small country was also specially selected from the Friendly Star Country, and is very suitable for doing business.
If the Starry Kingdom wants money, they must be the ones who can spend the most.
But the other party may want more than just money...
In response to this, Xie Lingxi also made another arrangement. The elite troops of Wanjin Commercial Bank and the army of Yuesha Country were ready to go at any time.
Jiang Rong followed Xie Lingxi inside and looked at this legendary golden city in the desert with curiosity.
The colorful glazed windows are gorgeous, the sparkling colored gems are dotted all over the roof, and the intricate and mysterious totem patterns make it a magnificent palace that is very different from Daxia.
Xie Lingxi also needs to call the shopkeepers together to discuss matters.
Jiang Rong went to his bedroom to take a bath first. They were exhausted from the journey, so they would rest here for a day and go to Fanxing tomorrow.
The cabinets in the bedroom were filled with rows of brightly colored dresses, which were Western women's dresses that Xie Lingxi had requested in advance and were carefully made according to her measurements.
Jiang Rong looked very beautiful.
…
Xie Lingxi discussed the follow-up arrangements with several shopkeepers.
Return to the bedroom.
I saw Jiang Rong, wearing a colorful dress, adjusting her clothes in front of the dressing mirror.
It was a chilly spring day, and it was very cold outside, but it was very warm inside the bedroom. Jiang Rong did not wear an outer shirt, but only a close-fitting inner skirt, which showed off her slim figure.
"Husband, you're back!" Jiang Rong heard the footsteps and turned back with a smile.
Since there were no outsiders here, she didn't wear a mask, revealing a pretty face with a beautiful smile.
Holding the new skirt with both hands, she turned around:
“Does it look good?”
Jingle bells.
The bell tassels on her skirt tinkled as she swayed.
It was like it was shaking in his heart.
The upper robe is shorter than the style in the Central Plains, revealing a slender waist that can be held in one hand.
Xie Lingxi felt a little hot for some reason, and turned his head away from her, saying, "It looks good."
"You don't even look at me, and yet you say I look pretty? You're lying. Am I not suitable to wear the clothes of Western women?" Jiang Rong muttered as he walked in front of Xie Lingxi. He hooked Xie Lingxi's chin with his slender fingers and turned his gaze back.
Eyes met.
Their faces were very close.
Ambiguous and floating.
Jiang Rong's cheeks turned slightly red, and she let go of her hand shyly, but the next moment, she was embraced by someone.
Xie Lingxi leaned forward slightly, and covered her cherry lips with his thin lips: "I'm not lying, Madam is very beautiful."
…
After a long time.
Xie Lingxi went to take a bath.
Jiang Rong lowered her eyes and looked at the red mark on her waist. Her cheeks flushed red and she quickly put on her coat to cover it up tightly.
Wait for Xie Lingxi to change into Western clothes and come out.
Jiang Rong was too shy to look at him.
I didn't expect that Xie Lingxi, who looked so reserved and cold, would actually...actually...be so shameless! He actually kissed...kissed there.
Jiang Rong muttered to herself, thinking back to their unexpected marriage consummation in their previous life, when Xie Lingxi...
Maybe, he is not reserved by nature?
Just then the chief shopkeeper came to report something, and Jiang Rong put on the mask, and then he felt much better.
Xie Lingxi's gaze fell on the little girl who lowered her head beside him. The mask concealed his feelings, and his face was actually very red.
He gently held her hand and looked at the chief shopkeeper, "What's the matter?"
"Sir, the news just confirmed is that the people doing business with the Sand Scorpion are the Yongning Marquis Dong family." The chief shopkeeper said in a deep voice:
"A few days ago, Sand Scorpion received a big business. We were not sure what the cargo was. Until just now, our spies got the news that Sand Scorpion was receiving the Dong family's caravan."
"The Dong family has a caravan that specializes in transporting medicinal herbs from the Western Regions."
The desert is vast and boundless, and even the Wanjin Trading Company only controls one trade route.
You can go to the Western Regions without taking the Wanjin Trading Company's trade route.
The difference is that this road has guards escorting it to ensure safety.
For other routes, you can only rely on luck.
If you are lucky, you can pass through the desert safely. If you are unlucky, you will encounter sand bandits.
There are many sand bandits hiding in the Western Regions.
The sand scorpion is a very powerful one among them.
He once came to Wanjin Commercial Bank to rob, but was chased and beaten by Wanjin Commercial Bank...
But the desert is too big, and they hid in it, so Wanjin Trading Company was unable to kill them all.
In addition to robbery, these sand bandits sometimes also help people escort goods.
This brings us to a rule of Wanjin Commercial Bank.
The company will check the goods!
Smuggling of prohibited items is prohibited.
The public statement was that this was a serious crime, and the Wanjin Commercial Bank that helped escort them would also be implicated. Wanjin Commercial Bank was a businessman doing legitimate business and would not go against the Daxia government.
Therefore, some merchants who smuggle contraband goods, unable to go through the Wanjin Trading Company’s trade route, often seek cooperation with the Sha bandits.
The sand thieves don’t check the goods, no matter what they send.
Xie Lingxi had long ago asked the spies of Wanjin Commercial Bank to keep an eye on the movements of the sand bandits in various places.
Be ready to rob sand bandits at any time.
It is usually difficult to find their traces.
But once they want to go to the Western Regions, they can be blocked at several necessary routes.
"Dong family?" Jiang Rong vaguely felt that this might be directed at Bing Yukui.
At that time, Princess Anyang was looking for the nine miraculous medicines.
But she is already dead, so who in the Dong family is still looking for medicine?
Xie Lingxi's eyes were slightly cold, "Gather the men, rob and kill."
