What to do, what to do!
Tuoba Zhen was extremely anxious and didn't care what time it was; he went straight to find Song Xia.
Noon.
While Song Xia was busy.
But no matter how busy I am.
She couldn't bear to ignore Tuoba Zhen, so she made an excuse to go to the backyard outhouse and then enter the space to see him.
"What's wrong?"
Tuoba Zhen truthfully said, "We are about to cross the bridge. This bridge is only wide enough for one carriage to pass at a time. If we are not careful, we may fall into the river along with the carriage."
Song Xia pondered for a moment and asked, "How many of your own people do you have? How many carriages do you have?"
How many of them are our own people?
How many carriages were there?
Tuoba Zhen opened his mouth and said, "My mother gave me a hundred men, some of whom were eunuchs from my palace, and about twenty were just bought. A carriage, a carriage... let me think about it..."
Song Xia: "..."
She really didn't know how to criticize his mother. How could she dare to compete for the throne? Where did she get the courage and confidence?
Tuoba Zhen said in a loud voice, "I remember now, there were about fifty carriages. They said they carried grain and fodder, and besides the grain and fodder, there was also silver. Father Emperor said the silver was at the bottom of the carriages, probably around 100,000 taels..."
They have food and money.
Let him escort it.
Is his father really that at ease?
Could it be a test for him?
Actually, there's no money down there?
Song Xia smirked and said, "Have your men drive the carriage across the river. The rest of you wait until your men and carriage have crossed before crossing. Anyone who disagrees, you can kill them to intimidate them!"
Let him kill someone?
Tuoba Zhen never killed anyone, not even his prey.
Song Xia shouted, "Aren't you going? Aren't you afraid that if there's a problem with the food and silver, your father will chop off your head?"
Chop off his head...
Tuoba Zhen shuddered at the thought of that scene.
He didn't want to be beheaded.
He immediately did as Song Xia said, but some people objected, thinking it was a waste of time and what if it affected Jin Beicheng and the others' battle?
Unable to kill, Tuoba Zhen kicked the person who screamed the loudest into the river.
"screw you!"
"Whoever shouts will suffer the same fate as him!"
Everyone fell silent.
They never expected that Tuoba Zhen could be so frightening when he got angry.
It's certain that the person who was kicked down will be a scourge.
Tuoba Zhen then ignored him.
He arranged for more reliable people to drive the carriage; the newly purchased ones were useless.
The following days were peaceful and uneventful.
It was not far from where we were going.
Another problem has arisen.
As they were walking, a landslide suddenly occurred on the mountain, and many rocks rolled down. Although they tried their best to avoid it, some people and carriages were still trapped under the rocks.
When Jin Beicheng's two trusted men arrived with their men, they happened to see them rescuing people.
They quickly led people forward to help.
With their help.
There is absolutely no problem with the food supplies.
Everyone was rescued, but a few died and several were seriously injured.
Tuoba Zhen recognized Jin Beicheng's confidants. After looking around and not seeing him, he stepped forward and asked, "Why are you here? Where is Jin Beicheng? Has he come?"
"Our master couldn't leave, so he sent us."
Jin Beicheng's men gave a brief explanation and then ordered their men to escort them away.
They arrived less than half a day after leaving the city when another group of soldiers arrived, escorting silver.
At this time.
Tuoba Zhen then realized that the money was not in the carriage they were escorting.
The joy he felt at arriving safely vanished instantly, replaced by an indescribable sense of distress.
"An immortal..."
Aren't they alright now?
Song Xia already knew about Jin Beicheng's situation.
She put down what she was doing and went into the space to see him.
Before she could ask, Tuoba Zhen opened his mouth and said, "Immortal, do you have any wine? I want to drink."
What's wrong with you now?
Song Xia asked curiously.
Tuoba Zhen curled his lip and said, "There's no silver in the carriages we're escorting. Father Emperor sent a general from the court to escort them. Not only that, he also sent a lot of grain, more than I did..."
Isn't this a clear indication that they don't trust him?
Song Xia didn't ask any more questions and simply brought him two bottles of beer.
I also gave him some peanuts, braised eggs, braised chicken wings, and chicken feet to go with his drinks.
I also took some pickled peppers.
Tuoba Zhen was quite upset at first, but his mood improved as he ate.
Look how well Song Xia is doing today.
Tuoba Zhen continued to eat while crying, trying almost everything in her supermarket.
Song Xia gradually realized what was happening: "Just eat it. If you eat too much, you'll regret it tomorrow."
Tuoba Zhen: "?"
He clearly didn't understand.
Song Xia raised an eyebrow: "You've never binge eaten before? So you're going to gain a few pounds this time."
Tuoba Zhen: "!"
Suddenly, the food I was eating didn't taste good anymore.
He thought for a moment.
He picked up a food container again: "I'll eat my fill and then continue my diet. Besides, I haven't been eating properly these past few days because I've been so worried. I've already lost a lot of weight in this period alone."
Their matter has been resolved.
Song Xia stopped paying attention to them, because she was quite busy with the shop and the family workshop.
The Chinese New Year is just around the corner.
Song Xia needs to settle all the accounts for this year, and also prepare New Year's gifts for the people who worked on both sides.
She would rather delegate the task to someone else.
question.
Song Lao Si is unreliable, Song Lao Da is too frugal, and as for Song Lao Er and Song Lao San, well, they each have their own agendas.
She had originally intended to make them team leaders, to give them a chance.
But it just won't work.
After that, she gave the group leader position to someone else.
Although they didn't say anything, they felt somewhat uneasy.
Fang Zheng has been busy going on blind dates lately.
She's busy settling down, and it's her own mother who's arranging it for her.
She naturally didn't want to trouble him.
I'll have to do it myself.
The accounts are almost settled.
Once Song Xia had set the holiday schedule, she began preparing New Year's gifts. After thinking for a while, she decided to give each person five catties of half-fat and half-lean pork, two catties of apples, two catties of white sugar, and five catties of white flour, all of which were taken from her spatial storage.
The items in her online space were all automatically replenished the next day after she took them, and she didn't feel bad at all.
When Song Lao Da and Song Lao Si found out, they both felt it was too much.
"It's okay, we made money this year, didn't we?"
Song Xia said that, but in reality, she has only received the money from selling sweet potato vermicelli. So far, Ji Ying sent people to bring 15,000 catties of sweet potato vermicelli to their workshop. He sold it for 100 coins per catty and gave her 30 coins per catty, which is 450 taels of silver.
Ji Ying said she would give her the money for the beer and hot pot before the Chinese New Year.
Ji Ying came to Song Xia's house on December 26th because she had been at home recently.
They exchanged a few pleasantries.
Ji Ying ordered his men to bring over the items they had brought.
Less than fifteen minutes.
There were many things in Song Xia's living room.
Ji Ying opened one of the boxes, held it up to Song Xia, and said, "This contains the share of the beer and hot pot profits. The deadline is November, and the profit will be paid next year in December. The beer share is 2,135 taels, and the hot pot share is 1,105 taels. Please make your selection."
