Chapter 192 Jade Plate

As soon as Shen You's shop opened, Liu Zheng and Li Heng arrived.

Liu Zheng came to share the bill with her and to express his gratitude.

"Thank you, Manager Shen, for your help. Otherwise, Yun Yan..."

Manager Shen not only helped them make money and gradually improved their lives, but also saved Liu Yunyan's life.

"I hope Manager Shen will not despise this thank-you gift."

Liu Zheng brought out a plate carved from green jade with gold threads inlaid on the edges.

It is obvious at first glance that it is a treasured item.

It should have been a display in the palace during the family's heyday, and it must have been of quite high standards.

"I have already received the money from Miss Liu Er. This item will be used as the fee for the future."

As soon as Shen You finished speaking, Li Heng understood what she meant, "Miss Shen is still going to the North?"

He was originally worried about the problem of food and supplies, and once the war started, it would be difficult to transport supplies.

The reinforcements going to Shuozhou have food, but the situation in Shuozhou city is serious. They can only alleviate the immediate crisis. I am afraid they will not be able to hold out for long even if they reunite.

And there is wood. It would be terrible to live in a place like that without wood for making a fire.

It's unbearable to eat snow directly with dry food that is as hard as stone.

But if Miss Shen were to go, many problems might be solved.

"Yes, just these two days." Shen You replied.

Li Heng let out a breath, feeling happy that there was a way out of his predicament, but also a little depressed.

Who is Miss Shen going to the north again this time because of?

National Master, or Da Qi?
He naturally hoped that Miss Shen did this for Da Qi.

Li Heng wanted to ask more than once what the relationship between her and the Imperial Master was.

But I never asked her once, as I felt like I had no right to ask her about her private affairs.

"There is a shortage of supplies in the north. If you can help a little, or need anything in exchange, just let me know." Li Heng said gently.

Liu Zheng also said, "I will send someone to the warehouse to get 2,000 taels of gold as an advance payment."

Ever since cooperating with Shen You to sell thermal clothing and down jackets, Li Heng and the Liu family have never been short of money.

Liu Zhengwei is not only concerned about the country, but also about his cousin and uncle.

I was afraid that there was no money or things over there that could be exchanged for supplies. Two thousand taels of gold was equivalent to twenty thousand taels of silver, which was all the money that could be moved in the Liu family's account.

After doing the transaction for so long, Shen You didn't need to do the math. The money was 3 million, minus 20% handling fee and the money she earned.

It would be enough to exchange it for supplies.

Of course, this only applies to food and medicine; other things are not counted in the same way.

Shen You: "Then find some more precious wood and spices, preferably with a recipe."

There are some big guys in the collecting circle who like to study lost ancient fragrance recipes, maybe they can be used.

In fact, they did not give advance payment, and Shen You also asked Wen Zhi to go to the old emperor's warehouse to collect the debt.

She can't lose money.

"Okay, I'll send someone to deliver it later." Li Heng nodded with a smile.

Shen You took out the diamonds, tourmalines and jadeite that she had sorted out yesterday.

She kept a piece of tourmaline with the most beautiful color for herself, and Wen Zhi asked a skilled craftsman from Da Qi to carve it.

Everything for sale is here.

Liu Zheng works for the royal family of Da Qi, but to put it bluntly, the real boss is Li Heng.

These things were very valuable in ancient times, and Shen You originally thought of asking Liu Er Niang to sell them.

That place is her own property.

But precious minerals are not something that ordinary merchants can sell, so they have to be allowed to sell the best ones.

A batch of imitation Qing Dynasty button shapes were given to Liu Erniang as accessories for clothes. Seeing these precious gems, Liu Zheng blinked his eyes. How could Shopkeeper Shen still have them?

Could it be that she has her own mine? Did she go on an inspection during her absence?
The quality of these things looks better than the tribute.

Your Highness is in need of money to prepare supplies for General Lu. After selling these things, the dividends will be a large sum of money!

Very good!
"There is one more thing. I want to buy a batch of saltpeter and sulfur. Please deduct the money from the account." Shen You continued.

"Miss, what use do you have for these things?" Li Heng wondered.

"Yes, but don't worry, it will never harm Da Qi."

After Shen You said this, Li Heng did not ask any further questions.

"I naturally believe in Miss Shen. If you wanted to harm Da Qi, you wouldn't have traded with me so many times."

Every time, she sent good things to Da Qi.

Saltpeter and sulfur might be what she wanted to resell to her own world.

Thinking of this, Li Heng's gaze involuntarily fell on the photo on the counter again.

Seeing that Li Heng agreed, Liu Zheng understood and asked further,
"I wonder how many of these two things Manager Shen needs? If there are too many, it will be difficult to prepare them all at once."

Saltpeter can be used to make ice in the summer, and sulfur is also a medicinal material. It is sold in Da Qi, but the source is controlled by the government and imperial merchants.

There are undercurrents in the capital city. If you buy too much, you will definitely be tracked down.

Your Highness would not want to see this shop discovered by Prince Cheng's people.

Shen You understood their situation and said, "Just buy as much as is convenient for you."

[Lancheng] The shelter is used to make explosives, and she originally wanted to make some first to see the cost.

the other side.

Shuozhou City.

It was getting dark quickly. The excited shouts and horse hooves of the foreigners spread far in the silent north, making people shudder.

"The commander and deputy commander of the city of Da Qi are both dead, leaving only a group of remnants. Charge!"

"Let's take this city today!"

After a few shouts, the foreign soldiers became excited, exuding a bloodthirsty and warmongering aura.

There was a huge disparity in combat power between the two sides, and there were indeed not many people left in the city, but there was no fear on Liu Yunyan's face.

They are the defenders, and the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack Shuozhou City is their biggest advantage.

The foreigners had a defense map and knew which direction was easiest to attack. They wanted to take advantage of the dark and windy night to sneak several teams into the city, attack from both inside and outside, and catch the defenders off guard.

It was a good plan, but just as they rushed in, a white light suddenly shone over them.

The confused expressions on the faces of the foreign soldiers who were lurking halfway along the road were captured clearly.

What the hell can it shine so far?!
The next second, arrows were shot from the city which had the geographical advantage.

Several foreigners fell before they could even react, and the people behind them quickly used wooden shields to block them.

But the rain of arrows was too dense, and their plan to infiltrate the city from here could not be carried out.

After much difficulty, I finally got to the front, and then there came an arrow without an arrow head but tied with a white cloth.

That thing will burn you if you touch it, and it will explode instantly if it encounters a rocket!

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" Those who realized something was wrong held their heads and dodged.

"The Second Miss is indeed foresighted! She actually guessed that the foreigners would sneak in from here!"

Uncle Zhou's face was filled with excitement as he watched the foreigners' most crucial plan tonight fail.

He said that the second young lady would be no worse than Lord Liu and would definitely be able to lead everyone to defend Shuozhou!

Now, let’s see who dares to gossip!
"Second Miss, what on earth are these?" The soldiers looked at the strong and ultra-long-range flashlights in surprise.

And that white cloth bag.

It’s all so magical!
