Chapter 31: I am grateful for your kindness
It can be seen that Mr. Qian is really jealous.
And this time it was not because he wanted to resell them, but because he personally liked ancient paintings and the four treasures of the study.
Chen Jinyue had heard Professor Yan mention it, so he generously gave him a pair.
No charge.
Old Qian's face was full of smiles, and fearing that she would regret it, he quickly moved the things into the car.
Before leaving, he enthusiastically told Chen Jinyue that next time he went to the provincial capital, he could contact him directly if he had any problems.
Chen Jinyue smiled broadly, "Okay!"
Watching the car go away, Chen Jinyue couldn't help but sigh.
It’s great to have a car.
You can go whenever you want, without even checking which day the tickets are available.
She decided that after delivering this batch of goods, she would also buy a car!
I also want to buy an apartment and live alone!
…
After a day and a night of non-stop repairs, Xiurong City barely regained some vitality.
There weren't many clothes left before, and only a few families were able to receive a thick cotton jacket.
But there was barely enough fuel to go around, and every household received a small bag.
The curls of smoke drifted out from the doors and windows, dispelling the despair of the icy and snowy world.
The snow on the streets has been cleared, and the road surface has been clean again. Occasionally, one or two people can be seen hurrying back with hot porridge, or most people are waiting in line at the porridge stalls.
In the evening.
Jiang Qian'an walked out of the military camp and saw this scene. His solemn expression rarely relaxed, and there was a hint of relief between his brows.
The people also saw him, and smiles appeared on their faces, which were black and cracked from the cold.
"His Highness has come out! His Highness has come to see us!"
"Thank you, Your Highness, for remembering us!"
"Your Highness is wise. Drive those barbarians out of the city! Otherwise, we will all become their winter food!"
"Long live His Highness!"
"Long live His Highness!"
“…”
There were shouts one after another in the streets, and people were prostrating themselves. There was an indescribable sincerity and emotion in their voices.
Jiang Qian'an was moved, but when he heard the last few shouts, his eyebrows twitched uncontrollably.
Long live?
These people had no ill intentions or motives at all.
They simply expressed their gratitude.
But when someone listens attentively, it sounds different.
It's no wonder that the Xiao family army was guarded to such an extent by the capital and the emperor before...
After clearly instructing the people not to shout "Long live the emperor" randomly, Jiang Qian'an set off for his original city. He had made an appointment with Miss Chen to go to the shop again today to see the result.
With or without follow-up medicine, she would give him an answer.
"Has the letter been sent?"
Jiang Qian'an suddenly turned around and asked the followers around him.
The attendant replied respectfully, "It has been sent out, expedited for eight hundred miles. Your Majesty should see it soon. Send food and supplies for support!"
Since His Majesty has personally appointed Your Highness to come to the border, he must trust Your Highness.
Your Highness is the eyes of the capital. He has seen the tragic situation at the border and the loyalty of the Xiao family army. Your Majesty will definitely understand that all the previous things were misunderstandings.
Jiang Qian heaved a sigh of relief and nodded with great conviction.
They just need to hold on for this period of time and the court will support them.
…
Throughout the afternoon, Chen Jinyue was playing the role of a money-giving boy, paying off debts or approving funds for factories.
It was almost done and it was getting dark.
A familiar figure walked in through the half-open warehouse door.
"Miss Chen,"
Jiang Qian'an stepped in and couldn't help but speak first, "The medicine you gave me yesterday was very effective! The soldiers' fevers have stopped, and the loss of combat power has been greatly reduced!"
Chen Jinyue looked up at the newcomer and smiled proudly, "Of course, medicine is very advanced nowadays."
Jiang Qian'an looked at her with gratitude in his eyes. "The burning stones also burn longer than the ones we have here. The people living on the border have all received the burning stones. Finally, they no longer have to hide at home and wait for death..."
Perhaps because of what happened last night, Chen Jinyue urgently sent a wave of life-saving medicine, which made Jiang Qian'an feel closer to him.
He himself didn't realize that his desire to share had increased.
Although I was quite frank before, I didn't reveal anything about the military that I shouldn't have.
Now his brows and eyes were relaxed, and he couldn't suppress his joy. "This time, the Xiao family army took back a city with very few casualties. I have reported the news to the capital, and my father will definitely reward him handsomely!"
"A big reward? Are you sure?" Chen Jinyue didn't believe it.
A border general who needed to be monitored by a prince has now won a battle easily. The emperor just wants to kill him as soon as possible, right?
In an era when imperial power was supreme, the emperor would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go.
When Jiang Qian'an heard her question, his smile froze and he looked at her with questioning eyes.
Chen Jinyue didn't continue to pour cold water on him, otherwise he would seem like a profiteer trying to sow discord. "It's good that you won. Now you can have a good rest for a few days?"
Jiang Qi'an shook his head. "Thanks to the quick effect of the medicine, the morale of the soldiers has greatly increased. General Xiao has decided to pursue the victory."
After saying this, he paused and pulled over the small cart loaded with boxes.
There was a large box and a small box on it.
Jiang Qi'an picked up the small box and handed it to Chen Jinyue with both hands. "This is the piece of wood you asked for. General Xiao found it in Xiurong City."
Chen Jinyue's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that he could actually find it. He took it, opened it, and examined it carefully.
"Yes, that's it!"
“…”
Jiang Qian'an didn't say anything, but just watched her quietly as she dragged out the small table and poured out the wood blocks, looking eager to try.
Chen Jinyue wanted to fight immediately, but then he realized there was someone in front of him.
She raised her eyes and met the hope in his.
Her hand paused, and she led him to the innermost part of the warehouse. "You're lucky! I contacted the pharmaceutical factory and got a hold of some of their stock. They have all the types I gave you before, and there's also some for colds. I figured you might want some too, right?"
"Yes! Both!"
Jiang Qianan didn't hesitate.
Chen Jinyue explained to him how to use the cold granules, as well as other cough and phlegm relievers, digestive system medicines, etc.
Yuyuan Pharmaceutical Factory has a very complete range of products, so this batch of goods is also quite complete.
The more Jiang Qianan listened, the more excited he became, and his heart beat uncontrollably.
With this batch of medicine, the soldiers will be protected in the future.
At least there is no problem in taking back the occupied city.
The people at the border will not die from the cold...
After hearing all the introductions, he paused for several seconds, suppressed his excitement, and bowed solemnly, "Miss Chen, I am deeply grateful for your kindness! When the border is stabilized, Qi'an will repair the ancestral temple for you to repay your kindness!"
Chen Jinyue's eyes widened, and he quickly waved his hands to refuse, "No, no, you gave me the money, this is what I should do."
Speaking of silver and money, Jiang Qianan opened the big box again, and inside was a box of exquisite porcelain.
Last time she received a box of porcelain and asked him to get another batch of goods, he thought she liked porcelain very much.
This time, all the items picked were porcelain.
"Miss, do you think these are enough? If not, I'll have someone pick out another batch!"
“…That’s enough.”
Chen Jinyue smiled. In fact, the jade ruyi from last night was enough.
She had accepted everything before because she was heavily in debt and wanted to pay it off as soon as possible.
Now that her debts are paid off, she feels relatively at peace. "The things you gave me have different values for me. You can choose the right one next time."
She decided to be a more conscientious businessman and kindly gave him a standard of value.
"The jade ruyi you gave me last night is worth as much as this box of porcelain, and it's more than enough to buy some medicine for my wounds. But the medicine is special after all, and I'll take the risk, so I'll accept it all."
"And the inkstone and brush washer you gave me earlier are also very valuable. If you give me those, you don't have to give me ordinary items."
"Next time you come to get the quilt, you need to bring more for ordinary things, but if it is of the same value as the jade ruyi, one will be enough."
“…”
