Chapter 31 Cannon Fodder Please Follow This Configuration

Xie Ciyan sat there for several seconds before he lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked around.

"Shuofeng, go and ask the two young ladies of the Jiang family if they are nearby."

"yes!"

Thinking of the unexpected string of words he had just heard, Xie Ciyan frowned.

King Anhe was the only king of a different surname in the history of the Yu Kingdom who purchased the throne through financial means.

At that time, the late emperor spent three years to quell the foreign unrest and returned to the capital. Just when the national treasury was empty, Prince Anhe suddenly appeared.

At that time, King Anhe spent all his wealth when the national treasury was empty, and paid a tribute of one million dan of grain to the late emperor, only asking for the throne and the barren land of his hometown as a fief.

A king of a different surname who did not need real power just wanted a nice title and a hundred miles of land. The late emperor naturally did not hesitate to give it to him.

But if the eight gold mines and seven silver mines are true...

The wealth that An and Wang gave away at that time was just a drizzle that leaked out of the cracks.

And what did his sister-in-law mean by that?

Would someone marry the Baojin County Lord and use the financial power of Anhe Wang to rebel?

Xie Ciyan's eyes suddenly turned cold.

~~~

"Lord Baojin, these are all yours. Buy them all."

After Jiang Youning came to his senses, he laughed and spoke without waiting for Lin Xiangyin to argue.

"Did you hear me? They don't want them anymore, pack them all up for me."

Lord Baojin looked at the keeper with satisfaction, and his maidservant slapped a stack of banknotes in front of the counter.

"Settle the bill and give me the change!"

During this gap, Lord Baojin looked at Jiang Youning and the others with a satisfied smile.

"You guys seem okay, but the arrival of this county lord has really made you go home disappointed today. So, I will give you 10,000 taels as compensation."

"Since it is a reward from the county lord, we should respectfully obey your order."

Jiang Youning smiled slightly.

[Good guys, good guys! From now on, all the cannon fodder female supporting roles with their noses in the air please follow this configuration, okay? ]

[I may sound a bit arrogant, but I'm not mean at all. This owner of Baojin County looks pretty good.]

[After all, if I had the financial resources, I would definitely be even more high-profile than her, and bring dozens of handsome men with me when I go out. Wouldn't that be wonderful~]

“Ahem!!!”

This time, even though Jiang Wanrong's mentality had been trained a lot recently, she couldn't help it.

How dare you say such a thing when you have dozens of handsome men following and serving you?

It seems that when my sister makes money in the future, she will still need my mother’s help to manage it, otherwise something really bad might happen.

~~~

After getting the small amount of money, Jiang Youning smiled as he watched the Lord of Baojin County, who was given the title because of the gold ingots, leave. Only then did he coax Lin Xiangyin, who was feeling a little uncomfortable, to go downstairs.

After buying some nice fabrics, before Jiang Youning could think of a solution, Jiang Wanrong coaxed Lin Xiangyin back.

Lin Xiangyin left five hundred taels for each of the two sisters, and gave them a few more words of caution before leaving slowly.

"Sister, thank you for giving me the jade pendant last time. I'm giving it to you now.

Take the jade pendant to Anping Bank and withdraw as much as you can.

From now on, I will leave it to you to find someone to renovate the wine shop."

Jiang Youning took out the crystal white jade pendant from his sleeve and placed it in Jiang Wanrong's hand.

Jiang Wanrong looked at the jade pendant in her hand and couldn't help feeling warm in her heart.

Xie Xiaohou gave this jade pendant to my sister, which can be used to withdraw 50,000 taels of silver.

And now, with such a huge sum of money, my sister put it all into her hands without saying a word and let her do whatever she wants.

"So...what are you going to do?"

"As for me, I will of course go shopping and ask a carpenter to make some tables and chairs according to what we agreed on before."

Jiang Youning smiled obediently.

[I am so smart. My sister took the jade pendant to withdraw money. How could my future brother-in-law not know?

I just don’t know if the young man can seize the opportunity to show off in front of my sister.

And if we round up the four pairs, this can be considered a token of love from my brother-in-law to my sister. 】

There was a snap.

The warmth in Jiang Wanrong's heart was broken in half.

Her sister wants to be surrounded by countless handsome men, but she wants her to fall into the grave of marriage. What a bad girl.

[But then again, my future brother-in-law lost his father and mother when he was young, and there is only an old marquis who doesn't take care of things in his family. My sister won't be wronged if she marries into this family.]

All right.

It turned out that her sister really was thinking about her.

However.

Mr. Xie's childhood was indeed quite miserable. Was it inappropriate for her to consider him?

I still have to find one that's not so terrible.

In a carriage not far away.

Xie Ciyan was moved to tears as he listened to Jiang Youning's words.

Although he is not a good person, he has done a lot of good things by punishing evil and punishing evildoers. He deserves it by having a sister-in-law who plans and considers him so carefully.

"Shuofeng, go to Anping Money House."

"Master, didn't you say you were going to the palace to see the emperor?"

Shuo Feng was stunned.

"Don't worry, let's go to the bank first!"

"yes!"

"Later, ask Jinyu Pavilion to deliver all those top-grade jewelry that have been kept at the bottom of the box to the Jiang Mansion, and give half to each of the two young ladies."

Shuo Feng's body paused again.

"But Master... weren't you planning to give that set of East China Sea Mermaid Pearl headpiece to the Empress to celebrate her birthday?"

"Prepare a new set of jewelry for my aunt, and a headpiece with East Sea mermaid pearls for my little fairy!"

"I understand..."

Shufeng's mood was somewhat complicated.

His master used to look down on women. Whenever he got something good, he would give it first to the empress who loved him like her own son.

Now, the master has a lover.

The Empress's true love was misplaced after all.

~~~

After separating from Jiang Wanrong, Jiang Youning persuaded Chuntao and Xiahe to go shopping to buy her food, while she herself walked into a somewhat remote rice and grain shop.

"What do you want to buy? Feel free to pick whatever you want. The price is negotiable."

The waiter lying in front of the counter was listlessly fiddling with the paste-covered abacus in his hands without even lifting his eyelids.

Jiang Youning, whose appearance had changed, looked around. The rice had turned yellow, flies were flying around, and the flour looked dirty.

She opened her thin lips and uttered a few words in a hoarse voice: "Two catties and two ounces of the best girl's red wine."

Hearing this, the waiter pointed calmly to the small door next to him.

"One or two taels of silver. Go in and choose for yourself."

"OK."

One or two ounces of silver was placed in front of the waiter, who turned the candlestick next to him.

Jiang Youning walked towards the small door.

Behind the small door, there was a brightly lit corridor.

Jiang Youning casually picked up a black poncho hanging on the wall and put it on. The black hood covered her entire body.
