Spatial Peasant Girl: These Mad Darlings Are Delicate and Gullible

Chapter 438: Could It Be That The Prince Thinks We’re Too Early?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

This was a small matter to Li Muyan. “That’s all?”

Xiaoxiao nodded. “Yes, that’s all.”

Did she know how big a deal this would be?

Xiaoxiao knew, but she didn’t have the time or energy to do everything. Moreover, if Li Muyan took over the charcoal-manufacturing matter, he could more or less help Second Brother.

Moreover, it was not like she had gained nothing. Compared to silver, she preferred the gratifying increase in points—

[Ding! The current level of the space is 59- The points balance is 189,800. Master, do you want to upgrade?]

Recently, she had been exchanging books and flowers in the mall. She had even brought Little Big Brother to the border several times. The consumption of points was not small, but once those franchise shops opened, the income every day increased by several times.

She had a feeling that when the charcoal workshop was built, she could even spend one point and throw away one point—that was how rich she was!

[System upgrade completed. Current points balance is 191,210.] [Regular update completed. The brocade pouch has been activated.] [One, 1×1 ranch speed times 10.] [Two, 1×1 water speed times 10.]

[Three, Hidden reward.]

Xiaoxiao experienced it carefully and felt that she did not seem to be very eager for the hidden reward, so she decisively chose option two.

Humans were always greedy. After eating too much on land animals, they wanted to try eating water creatures.

She returned to the capital too late and did not eat enough hairy crabs. Moreover, there were Boston lobsters and king crabs in the new products launched by the Space Mall. Wasn’t this seducing her?

These two fellows had high requirements for their growth time. If they grew at a normal speed, Xiaoxiao would have to wait for a long time before she could satisfy her cravings.

However, 60 x 10 water speed was different. She could experience the joy of a day in the sky and a year on the ground now.

As long as these little cuties stayed in the water for a day, it was equivalent to two years. In other words, in a month, she could harvest 50-odd years old lobsters. In less than two months, she could eat as much as she wanted of the huge Boston lobsters and king crabs that were once difficult to buy in the modern world and were extremely expensive!

It was also very important to satisfy one’s appetite.

After happily throwing lobsters and crab babies into the water and drooling for them to grow up quickly, Xiaoxiao looked at the iron mine in the space in satisfaction.

The mined ores were piled up in the space warehouse. It looked very spectacular, but it was a pity that she did not have the chance to use them.

She touched her chin. Perhaps, its not that there’s no chance.

Among the many items updated in the mall, only one caught Xiaoxiao’s eye.

[Item: Iron mine. Points required: 500,000.]

The Xiongnu envoys dawdled and finally sent the agreed compensation before it snowed in the capital. Probably because they were afraid of Great Xia’s troops, they did not dare to tamper with it again. The quantity was accurate and the quality was right. Xiao Ran, who was in charge of counting, spat from the bottom of her heart when she returned home.

“Should’ve given them a good beating long ago.”

A guard said hatefully, “If it weren’t for the fact that half of the officials in the royal court jointly submitted a petition back then, calling it concern, but in fact, it implied that you were injured and couldn’t be qualified to be a general, would Xiongnu have been able to survive until now?”

Xiaoxiao looked over to verify. Xiao Ran waved her hand. “It has nothing to do with them. I tried it myself and really couldn’t ride a horse. Otherwise, I would still go to the battlefield even if I tore their mouths apart.” At this thought, Xiaoxiao was even more grateful to Gongsun Zhongjing.

The latter was too tired and locked himself in his courtyard after her coming-of-age banquet. He only sent a post to the General’s Residence yesterday. In order to express her gratitude, Xiaoxiao’s dishes were so sumptuous that Rong Yan could not help but take a few more glances. Everyone knew that the matter of patent medicine could not be carried out purely by one’s own strength. In order to let more people enjoy this convenience, Gongsun Zhongjing had already asked Xiaoxiao and the others to inform the Emperor about this after careful consideration. Hence, the patent medicine he brought with him this time was sent to the palace immediately.

Xiaoxiao asked him, “After this, the Imperial Court will definitely pay attention to this matter. What does Doctor Gongsun plan to do in the future?”

She asked in detail, “Should we hand over the production of patent medicine to the Imperial Hospital and the Imperial Court, or should we continue to follow up?”

She knew that Gongsun Zhongjing was unwilling to come into contact with the government, but this matter concerned the patent medicine and the world. She had to mention this matter.

As expected, Gongsun Zhongjing fell into deep thought. If it was in the past, he only wanted to let go of everything and continue traveling or return to the Genius Doctor Valley to accompany his medical skills as usual, but…

“I’ll think about it.”

Although she didn’t know what made him hesitate, Xiaoxiao actually felt that there wouldn’t be another person in the entire Great Xia who was so concerned about patent medicine.

“However, no matter what happens after this, it’s best to prepare more for the time being.”

Everyone expressed their doubts. Xiaoxiao said mysteriously, “There might be a big deal soon.”

What arrived at Great Xia with Xiongnu’s officials were carts of iron ore.

When the Xiongnu official, who was filled with dissatisfaction, saw Chernan, his attitude naturally wasn’t any better.

“I was originally worried that the second prince would suffer in Great Xia as a hostage.” They scanned Chernan’s round figure from head to toe and said disdainfully, “Looks like we were overthinking.”

“The prince won’t think we’re too early, will you?”

This was originally a sarcastic remark, but he did not expect Chernan to accept it as a matter of course.

“It’s indeed a little fast. You guys make our Xiongnu look too yielding.” “Why? Didn’t Eldest Brother teach you an excuse to delay on the road?” ■’The iron ore is too heavy, the road is bumpy, and the acclimatization… One of them can be used, right?”

“You’re here so quickly with tributes as if our Xiongnu is in a hurry. Don’t you find it embarrassing?”

The official envoys felt like a mouthful of blood was stuck in their throats. He was the culprit of the defeat. What right did he have to criticize them?

Moreover, did they want to be so cooperative? They also wanted to dawdle on the way to express Xiongnu’s integrity, but their entourage did not let them!

At the mention of this group of special “escorts”, the Xiongnu official was depressed and could only cry.

They and the escorts could be considered the most familiar strangers—they were all Great Xia veterans who had fought them in the border city in the past.

The term “veterans” did not mean that they were old. Most of these people were still in their prime, but because of their injuries and illnesses, they had no choice but to leave the border city and the military camp.

Xiongnu’s official rolled his eyes—but who knew that they would meet again in such away!

When enemies met, their eyes were especially red. Although the escorts repeatedly emphasized that they were only here to transport goods and not take revenge, the envoys still had the illusion that they were going to be escorted into the capital to be beheaded.

No. Why are you looking at us like you want to eat us?

Their ugly old injuries looked like a death warrant in the eyes of the Xiongnu! It was terrifying!

After hearing the complaints of the Xiongnu envoys, even though Chernan originally disliked them, he could not help but fall into a long silence..
