“Okay!”
Seeing that he had served his meal, Yuchi Xi helped him pick up some of his favorite dishes.
Jing Huaian lowered his eyes to take a look and said, "Thank you, Your Highness the Little Princess." Then he lowered his head and started eating.
Yuchi Xi also ate quickly, and then continued to listen to gossip!
After she finished eating, she saw two knights walk in. They put their knives on the table, raised one foot and stepped on the stool, and shouted, "Waiter!"
"Good wine!"
"Okay, sir, I'll be right there!"
The waiter hurriedly brought a pot of wine over and handed it to him, "Sir, please enjoy your meal."
The knight waved his hand, indicating that he could leave first. Another knight asked him, "What are we doing here?"
"Could it be that you also heard that it's too hot here and wanted to come and experience it for yourself?!"
"Tsk tsk!" The knight stretched out his right index finger and shook it, "You don't know this!"
"Do you know why there is such extreme weather here?"
Knight 2:?
"Why? Isn't it because the weather here is so bad? Is there another reason?"
He really piqued the interest of Knight Two.
The knight smiled and said, "It's true!"
"There's another reason for this... Come closer and listen."
The knight came over twice, and Yuchi Xi quickly pasted a talisman of "Super Wind Ear" on himself and went to eavesdrop. "Quick, quick, let me hear what's going on?"
Knight 1: "I heard there's a monster haunting this place!"
"Think about it, this city has never experienced such extreme weather before. Why is it happening now? And it's so sudden!"
"If this isn't a demonic act, what is it?"
"Some wealthy man has issued a reward. Anyone who can capture this monster will be given 10,000 taels of gold!!"
"That's 10,000 taels of gold! Don't you want it? Let's try our luck. If we can really encounter that monster and capture it, we'll be rich!"
Knight 2: "Hiss...are you serious?!"
"Are you really going to give me 10,000 taels of gold if I catch this monster?!"
Knight 1: "You know about Firefly Cloth, right? That's what the boss said, how could it be false?"
"The boss is not short of money!"
Knight 2, "Firefly cloth weaving? If this boss said so, then it is indeed true!"
After all, the boss's textile business is quite big, so there is no need to cheat them. The main thing is that the boss has money, so they don't worry that he will cheat them.
Yuchi Xi: ???
monster? !
But she didn't notice any evil spirit here.
I didn't sense any breath of resentful ghosts.
Knight One: "I plan to stay here for a few more days to look for that monster. What about you?"
Knight 2, "Then of course I'll go with you. You know, our relationship has always been so good."
Knight 1: "If we weren't so close, I wouldn't have told you such good news!"
Knight 2: "Yes, yes, thank you very much, brother, this drink is for you!"
The two were clinking glasses and drinking. Yuchi Xi: “???” Are there really monsters?
Yuchi Xi wanted to hear some more news, but they were already talking about private matters.
After listening for a while, and finding no other useful information, Yuchi Xi stood up and prepared to pay the bill. Jing Huaian said, "Your Highness, the little princess, I have already paid the money."
"Let's just go."
Yuchi Xi blinked, "Brother Jing, I can't let you pay the money every time!"
"It's okay." Jing Huaian touched her little head, "I came up with it myself."
Yuchi Xi smiled softly and rubbed his palm with the top of his head, "Okay!"
After Yuchi Xi left the inn, she strolled along the street. Jing Huaian followed her with a wooden bucket of ice and a round fan, fanning her.
In fact, it is not as hot as during the day, but it is still hotter than other cities. People have come out to set up stalls now. Everyone is fanning themselves with a round fan in their hands. There are also many stalls selling round fans.
People passing by them would unconsciously move closer to them, wanting to get some cool air from the ice.
Yuchi Xi found it very interesting that everyone would lean towards them when they walked to their side.
"Brother Jing, your mobile ice storage is really attractive."
Jing Huaian glanced at them and said, "They benefited from your help."
Yuchi Xi chuckled and went to a nearby stall to buy a cute round fan. He fanned himself with it and looked around. "Why aren't there so many food stalls?"
"Young lady, you don't know anything!" Someone answered her while moving closer to her to get some cool air.
"Ice and water are very valuable in our city."
"Make it into food? That's a luxury!"
Yuchi Xi:?
Is water expensive now?
How can the price of water be raised? How can ordinary people survive?
Yuchi Xi asked them, "Is it because the wells are out of water?"
"Yes." The person beside him nodded. "Ever since the temperature started rising, the well water has been running out, and the river has dried up. We need water, so we have to go to other cities to get it, and there will inevitably be some loss during the transportation."
“The price is naturally higher.”
So...
Yuchi Xi frowned. This problem must be solved. We can't let everyone pay so much money for a little water. We have to think of a way to see if we can bring water here. The main thing is to solve the high temperature problem.
Yuchi Xi fell into deep thought.
Someone nearby asked her, "Where did the young lady come from?"
