Chapter 238 The World is Crazy
“The world is so big, everything is possible.”
Su Ying said as she had the medicine brought up, "Old rules, old prices."
Seeing this, Xu San came up to test the medicine.
After a round of examination, he confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the medicines, but he was still curious about how Su Ying became the queen of Tiankui City.
But he is not stupid. He would not ask questions that he shouldn't ask, even if it means adding one more word.
"This medicine is fine. I have prepared the money."
Xu San shouted to the outside of the hall door, and soon someone came in carrying a box.
Xu San stepped forward and opened the box, which was filled with bright yellow gold.
"This is the money from this shipment. Your Majesty, please count it."
Su Ying glanced at the Green Guardian and said, "Xiao Lu, go count the money."
Green Protector: “…” Seemingly a little dissatisfied with the title but not daring to say anything, the Green Protector walked forward to count the gold.
After confirming that the amount of gold was correct, he stood up and nodded to Su Ying, "Your Majesty, there is no problem with the amount."
"Very good." Su Ying took out a list from her pocket and asked Green Protector to pass it to Xu San. "When you come again next month, help me bring these things over. The silver will be converted from the medicine money, and I will give you some more medicine."
Xu San walked up to her with confusion and took the list in her hand and took a look at it. He thought Su Ying wanted something, but it turned out to be just the daily necessities of life.
"Can I bring it?"
Who is Xu San? He is the most adept businessman in the capital circle of Chu State, so he naturally would not miss this opportunity to bargain.
"Your Majesty, you don't know that it's a long way to come in from outside, but..."
"Just tell me if you can or not is enough."
Su Ying interrupted him calmly, her shrewd eyes almost showed her plan, she knew what he was thinking.
Xu San paused, seeing Su Ying's temper, and decided to change his strategy. "Yes."
"If you can, bring it. I'll give you a fair price."
In someone else's place, even if Xu Laosan was smart, he wouldn't dare to play any tricks. "Then I'll take my leave."
"Xiaolu, show the guest out."
Green Protector sent Xu San out of the city.
"Green Guardian, wait a minute."
The Green Guardian looked back in confusion.
Xu San smiled and said, "I didn't expect that the empress would be replaced after not seeing her for a month."
The Green Guardian nodded, "Yes."
"This... the previous queen..."
Green Guardian said expressionlessly: "Dead."
Xu San was stunned. Dead? He had seen how powerful that crazy woman was. How could she die just like that?
Su Ying is sitting in that position now, which means she was the one who killed that crazy woman?
Xu San shook his head in astonishment. This world is really crazy.
Before, when Su Ying brought the tiger skin to the pawn shop, he felt that she looked very familiar. It was only afterwards that he realized that she was actually the princess who was ridiculed by the world in the capital. And now, this princess has become the ruler of the Northern Wilderness?
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, many people wouldn't believe it was true.
I wonder if Xiao Jue will regret knowing how powerful Su Ying is?
Xu San shook his head again. Never mind. This matter had nothing to do with him anyway. Making money was the right thing to do.
Xu San and his men slowly walked away.
Inside the palace, as soon as Xu San left, Su Ying ordered the gray-clothed man with the strongest tracking ability to follow him secretly.
They had been in the Northern Wilderness for too short a time, and this mysterious land was still full of unknowns for them. She wanted to know where many of them came from and whether it was the same road as the one she was familiar with.
"Take all this gold and bring it to my inner sanctum."
"yes."
After the gold was carried away, Su Ying stood up and left the palace. In a blink of an eye, she was outside the medicine warehouse.
In the past few days, the Orange Protector has begun teaching the orange-clothed people trained by Wei Ji before. After the lessons, it won’t take long for them to be able to go to the pharmaceutical warehouse to make medicines.
Su Ying arrived at the pharmaceutical warehouse and found the man in orange who was temporarily in charge of the place.
"City Lord."
Su Ying asked him to stand up, and then handed the booklet in her hand to him, "Take a look at the medicine on it, can you make it?"
The man in orange took the booklet and looked at it carefully. All the medicines on it were those that they had never made before, but Su Ying had written down the methods and dosage of the herbs in detail. It was not difficult for them to make them, but the difficulty lay in that some of them did not have the original herbs at all, so they could not make them even if they wanted to.
"City Lord, these few herbs can be used to make it, but the others cannot be made."
When Su Ying heard him say that, she understood that there were no raw materials.
“Where did you purchase your raw materials from before?”
"The guardian took someone to buy it."
“Where can I buy it?”
"Tribe."
Su Ying nodded, motioning him to go down and get busy first, and then went to the rest room to wait for Protector Orange to come out.
It was not until the sun was about to set that Orange Protector returned to the pharmaceutical warehouse. Knowing that Su Ying was waiting for him, he ran over in a hurry and almost fell down when he reached the door.
"It is my fault for keeping the city lord waiting for so long."
Su Ying saw that he was barely catching his breath, so she asked him to get up slowly. "Why are you in such a hurry? You are teaching a class, so why not wait a little longer?"
The Orange Protector lowered his head and tried to lighten his breathing, not daring to let Su Ying hear his panting.
Although Su Ying had shown more calmness during the half month of getting along, the fear of the rulers had penetrated into their bones, and they dared not make her unhappy in the slightest.
"I am late, please forgive me, City Lord."
Su Ying looked at him, so scared that cold sweat was pouring out of his forehead. She let out a breath without saying anything, "I don't blame you, I just want to understand something from you."
"Whatever the city lord wants to know, just ask me."
"Did you buy all the medicinal materials in the pharmacy?"
"Reply to the city lord, this slave bought it."
"Where do you buy it and how often do you go there?"
"The tribes behind the city go there once every two months in spring, summer and autumn, but not in winter."
There is actually a tribe behind Tiankui City. "Where do they get their medicinal herbs from?"
“I go to the mountains to pick them myself, or I grow them myself.”
"Those tribes are also in the northern wilderness?"
"No, they are a tribe on the southern border, not from the northern wilderness."
"From the back city, can we reach the southern border directly?"
"Yes, there is a way to get there."
Su Ying tapped the table with her fingertips, "I understand, you go and do your work."
Orange Protector was surprised to see Su Ying let him go just like that.
Su Ying didn't say anything, just got up and left.
She felt that she needed to go out for a walk.
She was sitting on the tiger's back and heard thunderous slogans as she passed by the training ground. Even in the ice and snow, Xiao Jin would still insist on training every day.
She patted the tiger's head to make it stop.
