Chapter 496: Ruthless Time Can’t Be Wrong
Everyone in Xu Minghui's family knew that he was going on a long trip and would not be back home for the short term, but not many people knew where he was going.
Sang Zhixia arrived at the place and learned that Xu Minghui was at Aunt Xu's place. She guessed that the mother and son had something to say, so she simply went back to the North Courtyard and asked Huashan to wait at the place between the two courtyards. After seeing Xu Minghui, she asked him to come to the North Courtyard.
Xu Minghui arrived quickly.
As soon as they entered the room, Sang Zhixia asked him to sit down first. While asking Diancui to make tea, she took out a small box the size of a palm and placed it on the table: "Take this with you too."
Because they were going out, the little ones in the family learned the enthusiasm of their elders, racked their brains and used their imagination to help Xu Minghui prepare his luggage.
Xu Minghui had collected a bunch of random things these past few days, both useful and useless. He mistakenly thought these were the essential items Sang Zhixia had prepared for him to go out with. He paused for a moment and then laughed, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
"It's just that I've already prepared everything I need for the trip. I'm sorry that my sister-in-law is still worrying about me at this time."
Sang Zhixia placed her finger on the small box and lightly tapped it. She said with a smile, "Second Aunt must have prepared everything for you on the road. I can't think of anything suitable to add for you right now."
"But it's not just useful on the road, it can also be used when you get to a destination, and it won't be heavy if you have too many."
Xu Minghui's eyes flickered slightly. He opened the box and saw the thick stack of books inside. He was so stunned that he forgot to respond.
Sang Zhixia adjusted her sitting position and said slowly, "When you're out in a foreign land, especially one you don't know, it's easier to get things done if you have more money."
Lingnan has always been a place where foreign ethnic groups gather, and its inherited cultural customs are very different from those of the Central Plains, and its people are famous for their tough character.
In such a stable solid circle, Xu Minghui rashly entered and wanted to carve out a new world for himself there. Even with Jiang Yubai's help, he would inevitably be restricted in many ways when he first arrived.
However, there is no unmoved human heart in the world, and there are few ghosts and gods that cannot be moved by money.
As long as the benefits are clear and substantial, the number of haunted ghosts will naturally decrease.
It all depends on how you throw the money in your hand and who it hits.
Sang Zhixia seemed to have thought of something, and she slowed down her speech. "I know your eldest brother gave some, and Second Aunt probably emptied her account book, but that doesn't stop you from keeping all of this."
The silver needed to start a farm was given in full at once, and the arable land required was also provided by Jiang Yubai as a basis. These were equivalent to extra money given by Sang Zhixia, not for anything else, but just to give Xu Minghui more confidence that others did not have.
Xu Minghui quickly thought of a rough estimate and said in astonishment, "Sister-in-law, you gave me all this money to take away. Then, don't you..."
“Not empty.”
Sang Zhixia guessed what he was about to say and waved her hand, saying, "When we went to Shu, we made a fortune in a rather unjust way. I won't go into the details with you. Just remember that we still have plenty of money at home."
The source of the wealth robbed from the prince should not be publicized, but its destination does not need to be investigated in detail.
Instead of letting them gather into dust, it is better to use them to support those who are traveling far away.
Xu Minghui didn't hear any reluctance, and knowing that Sang Zhixia wasn't the type to exaggerate, he paused and smiled obediently, "Thank you, sister-in-law. I'll shamelessly accept it."
"I'm just worried that you're too embarrassed to accept it, otherwise I wouldn't have to make it twice for you."
Sang Zhixia gave him a teasing look, motioned him to sit down, and took out a thin piece of paper with a few addresses and detailed contact information written on it.
"When you go out, be more cautious and don't reveal all your cards at once. I won't repeat these clichés to you anymore, because you already know it."
"These people were given to me by Elder Qi. They are not within the scope of Young Prince Jiang's knowledge. Do you understand what I mean?"
Jiang Yubai is a very good person. As a person of genuine royal blood, he is proud but not arrogant, and he is indeed honest with others.
But Jiang Yubai is not the only one who has the final say in Lingnan.
Xu Minghui is alone outside, so it won’t go wrong if he keeps a few life-saving cards in his hand.
Since it was given by Mr. Qi, it means that only Sang Zhixia knows about it, and it is very likely that even Xu Yu does not know about it.
Xu Minghui paused for a rare moment and whispered, "Sister-in-law, I have enough people around me, so I don't need to..."
"I just praised you for not being pretentious, so why can't you withstand the compliment?"
Sang Zhixia folded the paper and stuffed it into the box filled with banknotes. She lowered her eyes and said, "If you don't want to touch it, don't touch it. But when you need it, don't hesitate."
"How big a farm can be and how much grain it can produce annually are one thing, but your life and property are always more important than these. If you can remember these things and keep a tight rein on your head, then what I give you today will not be in vain."
Xu Minghui's hesitation was blocked and he was speechless.
Sang Zhixia slowly exhaled, "Your elder brother has already told you everything he should have told you. You know better than anyone what to do when you get there. These are the only few words I can add to your rant."
The money should be given in place and those who can give should give it.
She had done everything she could, and the rest depended on Xu Minghui's ability. They were too far away and none of them could help.
Xu Minghui's heart moved slightly. He stood up and lowered his eyes and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I know what to do."
After seeing Xu Minghui off, Sang Zhixia flicked her fingertips lazily, turned her head to look at the screen that didn't let a single figure through, and jokingly said, "Everyone's gone, why are you still hiding and refusing to see anyone?"
"How long are you going to hide?"
Xu Yu stepped out from behind the screen, a faint smile in his eyes: "I'm just afraid of delaying your business, right?"
Xu Minghui is gentle and obedient in front of Sang Zhixia. He is a good brother who can be praised for three days if he is brought out.
This is not the case in front of Xu Yu.
Xu Yu was very self-aware. He sat down next to Sang Zhixia and said, "If I had been there just now, this kid would have taken the things too, but he would have definitely said something sarcastic to me. I'm too lazy to come out and ask for his share of the blame."
Sang Zhixia held up her chin and smiled: "Who can I blame for this?"
"You always behave unruly in front of them. Now that you finally have the chance, which of these little ones is willing to let you go?"
Xu Yu knew that he had committed a grave sin and did not try to defend himself. He gently placed a specially made soft pillow behind Sang Zhixia's waist and said slowly, "You have been the good guy, so I should be the bad guy."
"Who can make me not want you to suffer the verbal abuse?"
Sang Zhixia was amused by his witty talk. She leaned her head against his shoulder and said, "Xu Minghui has left for Lingnan. Isn't it time for us to get started here as well?"
Although autumn and winter are no longer suitable for farming, don’t they still have the magical greenhouse?
It does cost a lot to maintain the greenhouse, but the money spent can be heard returning, and it does not prevent the harvest of an extra season's grain.
No matter whether it is soybeans, sorghum, rice or wheat, as long as it can fill your stomach, it will become a good thing that money cannot buy in the near future.
Ruthless time cannot be wrong...
