Chapter 964: Making a Big Profit
Qin Chuchu ate two large bowls of food for dinner, and it seemed like there was no end to it.
I knew it was because I was too tired in the afternoon, so I finally controlled myself and didn’t eat anymore, for fear of getting fat like a pig.
I don’t know if it was because I was tired from working in the afternoon or because I didn’t take a nap, but as soon as I got back to the house, I couldn’t open my eyes.
After a quick wash, he climbed onto the bed and lay down with a bang.
It won't be long before you feel like you're in trouble.
When the man came back from washing up, Qin Chuchu was already sleeping like a dead pig.
Seeing Chuchu sleeping so soundly, the man's brows furrowed.
“…………”
Fell asleep so quickly! Looks like I've been busy this afternoon.
I hadn't seen her for an entire afternoon and was thinking of spending some time with her, but ended up falling asleep right away.
But seeing that she was sleeping so soundly, I couldn't bear to wake her up, so I could only hold her in my arms and sleep with her.
The next morning, as soon as Han Muchen sat up, Qin Chuchu woke up.
"My Lord, where are you going?"
As Qin Chuchu spoke, she rubbed her eyes and sat up. There wasn't much work outside in the past two days, so why did she get up so early?
Seeing Chuchu's dazed look, the man held her in his arms and kissed her.
"The base has started digging the pit again today. If you feel tired, you can sleep for a while."
After saying that, he pecked her pink lips again, then pressed her down and covered her with the quilt.
Just as he was about to turn around and get out of bed, Qin Chuchu climbed up again and hugged the man from behind.
"It's so cold, can you still dig?"
Qin Chuchu lay on the man's shoulder and spoke with her eyes closed.
It’s so cold that I can’t even stretch out my hands, how can I work?
A soft feeling came from behind him, and the man felt comfortable all over. He hooked Qin Chuchu in his arms and kissed her directly.
I didn't get what I wanted last night, so now that it's right in front of me, there's nothing to hesitate about.
"Um..." Qin Chuchu wanted to struggle.
But she really had no energy this early in the morning, and being kissed by this man was quite comfortable, so she just lay obediently in the man's arms and waited for what was ready.
After a long while, the man let her go with a satisfied look on his face and kissed her on the forehead again.
"Why can't we dig anymore?! I forgot we dug our first greenhouse in winter, it's just a little slower."
As the man spoke, his hands wandered over Qin Chuchu's body.
There were more than 100,000 pits before, but they were only dug one or two meters deep by breaking through the rock layer.
I just hope to finish digging those hundreds of thousands of greenhouses this winter.
"Yeah." Qin Chuchu nodded and rubbed against the man's arms again.
It feels so comfortable to be held in my arms, I don’t even want to get up.
Looking at the little kitten struggling in his arms, the man was reluctant to put her down. He fumbled with her curiously for a long time before finally putting her on the bed.
"If you're tired, sleep a little longer!"
After saying that, he covered her with the quilt, got up, put on his clothes and walked out.
Although it was still dark outside, Qin Chuchu was no longer sleepy.
Ever since I started hauling firewood in Wanbaoshan, I've developed the habit of getting up early. Since I couldn't sleep at this moment, I just got up with my butt sticking out.
Han Muchen was having breakfast with everyone in the restaurant when Qin Chuchu walked in unsteadily.
"Why aren't you sleeping?" the man looked at her curiously.
It's still dark out, and I don't know why Chuchu got up so early.
"I don't want to sleep anymore. I'll go to the tent later."
After saying that, she sat down next to the man and started eating with her bowl.
Since I'm awake now, it's boring to lie alone. I might as well go to the tent and join in the fun. It's quite interesting.
It's just the same bad thing, it makes my eyes tired. I stared all afternoon yesterday and my eyes are still sore now.
Looking at Chu Chu's dazed look, the man said nothing.
I thought Chuchu must have gotten up so early just for fun, after all, she has the habit of sleeping in.
But this time he was wrong again. In the next few days, Qin Chuchu still maintained the habit of getting up early.
She stayed in the tent all day long, and when the man came back from work, he would go to the tent to look for her like picking up a child.
Although he knew that Xu Zhe had no other feelings for Chu Chu, he didn't want to leave them alone.
Han Muchen sent Feng Er over, and under the pretext of helping, he successfully infiltrated the inner circle and blended in with them.
After dinner, looking at Chuchu sleeping soundly on the bed, the man tucked in the quilt for her and got up to go to the next room.
Seeing that everyone was present, he turned around and sat down, his eyes looking at Feng Yi again.
"How's it going in the capital?"
Hearing his master ask this, Feng Yi came forward proudly.
"Master, the antidotes have all been sold, and the money has been sent to the national treasury to pay taxes."
Feng Yi was so happy when he talked about this.
An antidote cost ten taels of silver, and he easily earned one million taels of silver, which directly covered the tax silver paid to the national treasury, so he didn't have to pay the tax out of his own pocket.
The most exciting thing is that the money was paid by Han Mulei. Thinking of how constipated he was at that time, I felt very proud.
As soon as he saw the guy's excited look, he knew that Han Mulei was frustrated, and the man nodded with satisfaction.
"Well, are there any casualties?"
I heard that many people have fainted, but I don’t know if they have all been rescued.
"Yes, I heard that more than 20 people died, and some of them had unusual identities. However, Han Mulei paid compensation to them all, and I heard that he even sold his newly bought house."
Feng Yi could hardly control the smile on his face. In order to appease those aristocratic families, he had sold his newly built house. This was a huge loss.
"Yeah." The man nodded again. He had already guessed what was going on. It was impossible to save so many people who were poisoned.
As if he remembered something, he turned and looked at Feng Er again.
"What have you been up to these past few days?"
He has been hanging out with Chuchu and the others for a few days, but I haven't heard him talk about what's happening over there.
Hearing his master's question, Feng Er looked embarrassed.
"Master, I only know that the boy made an engine, but I haven't figured out what it does specifically!"
Xu Zhe didn't hide anything from me. He answered whatever I asked, but I didn't understand what he said, so I didn't tell my master.
"Engine?" The man frowned.
No wonder April mentioned making some kind of machine before. Although he didn’t know what it was specifically, his intuition told him that it should be something special.
He was thinking about it when Feng Yi's words interrupted his thoughts.
"By the way, Master, the Emperor is going to reward you?"
When he went to the palace to pay taxes, the emperor specially summoned him and praised him a lot.
He also said that he would send someone to convey the imperial edict, and he was probably on the way.
This is indeed the case. At this moment, Eunuch Li is already on his way back.
The emperor in the palace has also been in a much better mood these days.
Although he was very angry about Han Mulei's incident a few days ago, fortunately, Chen'er's pharmaceutical factory developed the medicine in time, which saved those lives.
What made him most gratified was that even though Jibei had not yet set a tax amount, Chen'er not only paid it but also gave some extra.
The depressed mood that had lasted for many days suddenly relaxed, and he was in a very good mood these two days, but the queen had a hard time.
