She also pulled off her face mask, saying, "Now you recognize me, right? Do you remember how you bullied me last night? I said I'd get my revenge."
A roguish smile crept across his lips, and as if to match his words, he glanced at her chest and took a step forward.
Li Ruo looked at the face that had lost its beard.
Wow, no wonder he's the male lead.
His looks are undeniable, but he can't be too rugged; he's a bit like a pretty boy, because nowadays authors like to have their protagonists develop in a sneaky, underhanded way, so he also looks a bit sly.
In addition, the author of "Da Pao Xiang Tian" has another quirk: although there is only one female lead in the story, it doesn't stop the male lead from occasionally having ambiguous relationships with other women, one, two, three, four, five, etc., to satisfy the quirks of the majority of male readers.
"Bang!"
It's the end of the world, who would still be flirting with you?
"Who are you?" Li Ruo withdrew her fist, looked at the man covering his nose, and ran away with a look of disgust.
Xie Xiao and Sun Ergou, both stunned: ...
What kind of woman is this?
Is she still a woman?
“Boss, I know why she hit you now,” Er Gou said suddenly.
"Why?" Xie Xiao put his hand down. Damn, his nose was bleeding.
What did he do wrong?
He simply wanted to remind her that there was a small insect under her collar, probably picked up when she was on the roof, and to tell her that a flood was coming soon and she should stock up on food instead of just focusing on weapons.
Good deeds go unrewarded.
Er Gou looked at his boss's face and said, "It's because you didn't put on your beard today! The prefect's wife doesn't recognize you as the one from last night, so of course she won't admit it."
Xie Xiao, who was a little dizzy from being beaten: ...That makes sense.
Next time we meet, I'll stick my beard back on and settle the score with her for getting beaten up today!
The government office was in complete chaos.
Song Zhijing had just finished dealing with the meal arrangements at the manor and returned to his room exhausted. However, he couldn't resist the soft, fragrant embrace of his new wife and braced himself for what he was about to do. He had even taken his pants off when he suddenly received an urgent report that the yamen had been robbed.
He had no choice but to put his pants back on and hurried to the yamen.
"Outrageous! It's Xie Xiao again!" Song Zhijing habitually reached for the gavel to strike, only to find that he had touched nothing; the gavel had disappeared.
Upon inspection, the entire government office was completely empty.
The chairs, tables, writing implements, calligraphy and paintings on the walls, and the plaque that read "Upright and Honest," even the drum and mallet used to beat the drum to appeal for justice outside, are all gone.
He stared wide-eyed, unable to come to his senses for a long time.
The clerk who rushed over was also stunned, exclaiming, "This...this is far too outrageous!"
"Where is Constable Ruan?" Song Zhijing asked angrily. "Why hasn't he returned yet after going to find Xie Xiao's lair?"
The advisor said, "My lord, please calm down. Xie Xiao is a cunning man with many burrows. When Constable Ruan went to Zixia Mountain, the stronghold was deserted. He has probably moved to another location. I wonder which mountain he has moved to."
Song Zhijing gritted his teeth and said, "I don't care. I'll dig three feet into the ground to find him. Otherwise, you can all go home and farm."
The prefect was empty-handed and furious.
Li Ruo returned home with a beaming smile, having amassed a full load of goods.
Just now, taking advantage of the chaos in the yamen, she went to the clerk's house and the constable's house. It's true that if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too. She managed to find a lot of good things.
It's a pity that people can't enter the space, otherwise she could have taken the clerk's three concubines and the constable's wife and children into the space.
"Received a gavel, and 5,000 points credited to my account."
"Received an antique screen depicting plum blossoms, orchids, bamboo, and chrysanthemums, and 50,000 points have been credited to my account..."
I exchanged all sorts of small items for a lot of points, and my space was upgraded to the size of two football fields!
Points are more plentiful.
Li Ruo continued her shopping spree.
Purchased 10,000 barrels of purified water: used 80,000 points.
She feared that after the famine, a plague would break out, and the water sources would inevitably be polluted.
A batch of medicines including Lotus Qingwen, antiviral oral liquid, Banlangen, and Shuanghuanglian were purchased, costing 20,000 points.
Free-range eggs: 1000 versions, using 10,000 points.
Vegetables including cabbage, lettuce, romaine lettuce, cucumber, ginger, and garlic: a total of 5,000 catties, using 10,000 points.
Fruits such as apples, pears, bananas, and oranges: a total of 10,000 jin (5,000 kg), costing 50,000 points.
Grass carp, sea bass, mandarin fish, salmon, tuna, prawns, lobsters, crayfish, oysters, scallops, fish maw, and other fresh and dried seafood: 50,000 points used.
A batch of daily necessities such as toothpaste, toothbrushes, shower gel, and tissues: 10,000 points were used.
A batch of seasonings, including oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar, was purchased, using 10,000 points.
Fearing there wouldn't be enough food, they added more.
Rice: 50 tons.
Flour: 50 tons.
Corn: 20 tons.
Sweet potatoes: 20 tons.
Potatoes: 20 tons.
The space has a permanent preservation function and is not afraid of spoilage.
She also purchased a thousand bottles of high-concentration alcohol.
Ten fire extinguishers.
Li Ruo looked and saw that she still had more than a million points left.
It should be mainly used to purchase building materials and construct defense systems; that should be about it.
But what if you run out of them?
Li Ruo still felt a strong sense of crisis.
So, without even washing his hair, he ransacked the homes of the minor officials in charge of personnel, finances, and soldiers at Song Zhijing's yamen.
These people were all those who helped Song Zhijing escape when the flood came, and now they are all gone, "like autumn winds passing by, leaving not a blade of grass."
My points have increased to two million, hehe.
As dawn broke, the streets began to bustle with people, shops of all sizes opened for business, and uncles, aunties, and young men in the market began their day of hawking their wares, completely oblivious to the impending natural disaster.
Li Ruoshuo strolled around the street and noticed that rice was more expensive than in the mall, as were meat and vegetables.
It turns out that the harvests in the Great Yin Dynasty have been poor in recent years, and the imperial court has been levying exorbitant taxes and engaging in collusion between officials and merchants. The cities may appear prosperous on the surface, but the people at the bottom of society have long been suffering.
There was no price advantage for other goods either. Li Ruo bought several outfits, both men's and women's clothing.
After visiting the cloth shop, I bought more than one hundred bolts of various thick cotton cloths and silks, spending more than two hundred taels of silver.
Song Zhijing has been investigating strictly lately, and Li Ruo has tens of thousands of silver notes with banknote numbers on them, so she has to wait a few days before using them.
As she passed pawnshops and money exchanges, her eyes sparkled; after the flood, these all became treasures at the bottom of the water.
so……
When Mr. Zhang, the owner of Yongtai Pawnshop, woke up and prepared to open the window to do business, he found that all that was left of his pawnshop was a window frame.
Mr. Zhang, who was inside the window...
Li Ruo left with a smile.
She only chose a small, inconspicuous pawnshop to test her skills, not wanting to cause too much of a commotion, and it went quite smoothly. Haha.
The most urgent task is to find refuge, settle down with family members, and ensure that I have no worries before I can pull off another big heist.
