Chapter 727 Young General vs. Rich Lady 30
Huo Xiao tried on a simple white top and a pair of gray sweatpants, then put on a windbreaker and a pair of blue and white sneakers.
"This dress looks strange, but it looks really good when worn. I can't explain why, but it looks very energetic, and there is nothing superfluous about it."
"That's because the young general is handsome. If it was a black guy like you, you would definitely be ugly!"
"We are all training together, exposed to the wind and sun. The Major General is even busier than us, but the Major General just can't get tanned."
"We are big and strong and can't read a few words. The young general is like a teacher. If we were not born in the Huo family, but in a civil servant family, we would definitely become a high-ranking official and live a luxurious life in Wangdu City."
Yan Changfeng was not convinced, "This prince will definitely look good in it too!"
As he was about to put on the fluorescent sneakers, Huo Xiao raised his eyebrows, and Zhao Shan snatched the shoes away without him telling him to.
"The gods have issued orders. These are from the young general. Does Prince Yan want to anger the gods?"
Huo Xiao started to chase him away. "You shamelessly insisted on coming in to see it. You've already seen it. The matter of the magic mirror is confidential. If it gets out, you will be punished by military law! Prince Yan, please go back."
Yan Changfeng was reluctant to leave after seeing such a magical thing, and immediately said, "I can also offer sacrifices to the gods!"
"The General's Mansion is now an empty shell. All the gold and silver treasures have been sold for food. The Yan Mansion is different. Although there is no food or cloth, there are countless gold, silver and jewelry. The house is full of red jade, many of which are from the palace. They will definitely satisfy the gods."
"God, I have a favor to ask. I also want a pair of shoes as exquisite and bright as this one."
Ji Yunhuan knew Yan Changfeng's identity. Huo Xiao had mentioned to her that Yan Changfeng had a high status and average abilities, but he was not a bad person.
It was just a pair of shoes, and she agreed without hesitation.
Yan Changfeng happily went to get his shoes, with a smug expression on his face. Huo Xiao pursed his lips and wanted to chop off Yan Changfeng's claws!
"I will send it to you tomorrow. Today, these are for the young general. Remember to offer the gold, silver and jewelry. I will pay you and give you the goods. I will not do business at a loss."
Yan Changfeng put down his shoes awkwardly and said, "I will go back to get the treasure and will be back soon. God, please wait for me."
The corners of Huo Xiao's mouth involuntarily curled up.
The gods never said such words when they gave him food and clothes. He just offered some worthless paintings and gold and silver to the gods, and the gods continuously sent enough food for the people of the whole city.
The gods treated him differently after all.
Tens of thousands of pairs of cloth shoes emerged from the bronze mirror. They were of different sizes, but each pair had a black surface and a white base, with neat stitching, as if they had been carved from the same mold.
Zhao Hai was drowned in the shoes. He took off his tattered straw sandals and wiped the soles of his feet over and over again with tattered clothes, for fear of dirtying such delicate shoes.
He measured with his hands, found a pair of shoes that fit his size, cut open the cotton shoe that was connected to the cloth shoe with his sword, and carefully put his foot in.
Everyone found suitable shoes, put on their new shoes, and tried to walk a few steps. Everyone was very excited.
"I've never worn shoes that fit my feet so well. They don't make my feet tired at all. They wrap so well that I don't have to worry about cutting my feet anymore."
"The upper is black with dark patterns, so pretty! The sole is thick but not as hard as wood, so comfortable to step on!"
"These shoes are really sturdy. They won't come apart no matter how much you jump. They are as comfortable as soft-soled shoes, but you can run and jump as you like. Soldiers are not afraid to wear them during training."
Ji Yunhuan heard the excited voice coming from the bronze mirror and couldn't help laughing. "It's good that you like it. Each of you can wear two pairs to rotate. Every soldier can have one. Count the sizes and I will send you another batch tomorrow."
Everyone was very happy. With such good uppers and such comfortable soles, the gods actually wanted to give each of them two pairs. That means tens of thousands of pairs of shoes!
The power of gods is indeed unfathomable.
Everyone gathered the shoes and put them in order, and soon, 15,000 sets of Tang suits arrived.
Everyone changed into Tang suits and cloth shoes. Everyone was in high spirits and as happy as if it was Chinese New Year.
"This golden dragon is so beautifully embroidered. Ordinary embroiderers can't embroider such a beautiful pattern. Only the embroiderers employed by the imperial palace have such skills. But an embroiderer can only embroider a few feet of cloth a year. There are tens of thousands of clothes here. How many people must work together to embroider it?"
"The gods must have divine powers. Could they embroider stitch by stitch like us mortals? Maybe they can just blow a breath of fairy air and move their fingers and the clothes will be done."
"I just like this word 'Fu'. It means the blessing of the gods. It will surely keep my brothers safe and sound."
"Red is the most festive color, and there are such beautiful peonies. I have never seen such a bright red. How much dye must be used to dye such a bright red? It is so beautiful."
"Such fine fabrics, such fine workmanship. The ones distributed by the imperial court in the past were not this comfortable. They were all made of rough fabrics, and some were even moldy."
"These fresh colors make people happy. They must be gifts from the gods to women. Can I take a set back for my daughter? Men can make do with a piece of rag and go out, but girls are embarrassed to go out without clothes."
"My wife was the same. She could only use tattered sackcloth to cover herself. Fortunately, the major general distributed food, so our family did not starve."
Yan Changfeng came in holding a gilded box. The things were packed by the old servant, who specifically picked out the expensive ones.
The old servant was left outside the granary. The matter of the bronze mirror was a secret. Although he trusted the old servant at home, he would not bring the old servant in without Huo Xiao's consent.
Yan Changfeng was shocked to see the room full of clothes and shoes, but when he thought that since the gods had given him a full granary of grain, it was not surprising that they could also give him so many clothes.
Although these clothes are nice, they are far inferior to the ones Huo Xiao is wearing. He has no other skills, but his ability to look at things is first-rate, and he can tell a good thing at a glance.
Yan Changfeng placed the box in front of the divine mirror and bowed, "In addition to shoes, I also want a set of clothes. If the gods are willing, I would also like to ask for a set for my wife. If the gold and silver are not enough, I will send an old servant back to get them."
Ripples appeared on the mirror surface and the gilded box disappeared.
Ji Yunhuan opened the box and saw ten fine jade pendants, ten ingots of gold, ten strings of antique bracelets with a faint scent of sandalwood, as well as gold hairpins and hairpins, each of which was a treasure.
"We've made a fortune! We've made a fortune!" Ji Yun cheered. "This Prince Yan is really a fat sheep. We won't have to worry about not having money to buy things anymore."
"The Yan family is so rich, but they refused to support the Huo family in the beginning. They waited until the Huo family sold all their property and could no longer sustain themselves, and then they jumped out to take charge of the situation and turn the tide. Now Pingyang City is under siege, and even if they have money, they can't buy food. Hehe, this family is the only one that can be slaughtered!"
