Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Chapter 346



Listening to Shopkeeper Mi describing the thing that can make water boil, Wang Xiujin thought hard for a long time. He felt that he should know what the little dad said, and he just kept talking about it, but he couldn’t say it. He was so anxious. .Shopkeeper Mi said that he would send someone to the grocery store to tell him that if he encounters this thing again, he will keep it.Wang Xiujin and Li Sushan came out of their father's yard. Wang Xiujin had been thinking hard about what that thing was called, but Li Sushan didn't bother him, but just kept an eye on what was in front of Wang Xiujin so that he wouldn't bump his head.

When the grocery store received a letter from the former shopkeeper, it naturally did not dare to neglect it, and quickly spread the news. If someone saw it, they would charge more, and the shopkeeper Mi would use it again.

Sleeping in a daze until midnight, Wang Xiujin got up to relieve his hand. Standing by the toilet, he suddenly remembered what shopkeeper Mi described... dry ice.It's just that this thing can boil water, but can it heat water?Does it have heating effect?There was no answer in his mind, so Wang Xiujin decided not to think about it, let's talk about it after finding something!Maybe dry ice is hard to find.Lying on the bed again, Wang Xiujin hugged the quilt and rubbed against Li Sushan's thigh, and fell asleep contentedly.Waiting until the next morning, Wang Xiujin was thinking hard while eating. He remembered that he seemed to remember the name of that thing last night. Why did he forget it after getting up?

Putting this matter aside, Wang Xiujin ran to look at the circled mountain, accompanied by Li Sushan.Li Sushan didn't worry about Wang Xiujin going out of the city alone, even with his servants by his side, he was still worried.Doing the math, Wang Xiujin has been in danger several times in the past few years.Wang Xiujin really didn't want to hate Li Sushan. Even if he was in danger, he was not as dangerous as Li Sushan. He was assassinated and injured. With such great skill, he was not injured.How do you say that, no matter how good your martial arts are, you will be afraid of kitchen knives, and no matter how good your martial arts are, you will be knocked down by a single brick.

Wang Xiujin didn't dare to say anything, he could only murmur secretly in his heart, and sat honestly in the carriage, sitting on both sides with Li Sushan.Now that summer was over, the heat in the carriage was no longer stuffy, the cloth curtains were blown up by the wind, and gusts of cool wind blew into the carriage, making Wang Xiujin shiver uncontrollably.Li Sushan asked the driver to stop and brought in the charcoal basin that had been prepared earlier. Wang Xiujin's mouth twitched. There is no way in winter. It is cold and no charcoal basin is used, no matter how tight the carriage is and no matter how thick the paving is He also felt cold and had to use a charcoal basin, but now that it was not winter yet, he would have to be a little more delicate if he used a charcoal basin.

Wang Xiujin wanted to prevent Li Sushan from giving him an indifferent look and then being silent. Forget it, if Li Sushan is willing to do it, it will be done.After a while, the charcoal basin was brought in. The charcoal basin was not big, and there were not a few pieces of charcoal in it, so it would not feel uncomfortable.With the charcoal basin, it is natural to tighten the window, pull down the wooden slide, the glazed window appears, leave the cloth curtain aside, the sun shines into the car through the glazed window, and with the charcoal basin in the car, Wang Xiujin Feeling warm and quite comfortable, he squinted his eyes, leaned his head against the wall of the car, and yawned. If he basked in the sun for a while, he might fall asleep.

The carriage ran very fast. It took less than half an hour for Wang Xiujin to get out of the carriage after leaving the capital and yawning. The temperature at the foot of the mountain was several degrees lower than in the carriage. Just after getting off the carriage, Wang Xiujin was a little uncomfortable with the temperature outside. , jumped a few times before recovering, and turned to look at Li Sushan with a calm face.I don't know if it's because of his high martial arts that he doesn't feel warm or cold, or because of that face that hasn't changed for thousands of years.

Li Sushan walked to Wang Xiujin's side, wrapped him in his arms, held Wang Xiujin's with both hands, and warmed Wang Xiujin's hands, "Will you go up the mountain later?"

"If you want to go, after spending so much money, you have to see how big and high the mountain you bought is, and you have to have people surround the mountain, and you can't let people go up the mountain at will. If something happens, you can't blackmail me. On the head." Wang Xiujin originally wanted to get firewood for the people to go up the mountain, but thinking about the things to be planted on the mountain in the future, and the things involved, he was worried that some scoundrels would go to the mountain to steal a medicinal material, so he decided to He didn't care about the medicinal materials, he was worried that the one who stole the medicinal materials would throw himself down for a little profit, and then blackmail him, saying that he was injured on his mountain.At that time, although he was justified, he couldn't help people sometimes sympathize with the weak regardless of right and wrong, kidnap him with morality, and compensate him.Once there is the first one, there will be the second one. If an example is created, someone will think of a way to make money. Then his money does not need to be used for other things, as long as it is enough to compensate, it will be good.

"The protective net needs to be made higher, and thorn balls need to be woven on it. If you want to turn over, you have to be prepared for the thorn ball to cut your clothes and hurt your arm." Wang Xiujin looked up at the not-so-short mountain. "I have to borrow more people from the fourth prince. Every day, ten teams patrol the mountain in rotation. People must not be allowed in. Of course, these people should also pay attention to their own safety. Beast, no one can tell, safety comes first."

Li Sushan looked at the mountain, and pulled Wang Xiujin up slowly, "Go up now, are you not afraid of encountering big beasts?"

"With you here, what are you afraid of!" Wang Xiujin was quite good at taking pictures, looked at Li Sushan with a smile, and walked up slowly. In fact, he didn't want to climb to the top of the mountain. He hadn't climbed a mountain for many years. He knew that it would not be easy to climb to the top of the mountain. In particular, the road up the mountain is not paved with ladders like the later generations. The road in front of me, according to Mr. Zhou's words, there is no road in the world, and the more people walk, the road will become a road.

Slowly going up, the two of them didn't bring any water, and after walking for a while, they felt their mouths were dry. Wang Xiujin stopped to rest. Li Sushan looked at the road up the mountain, and turned to look at Wang Xiujin, "Do you still want to climb up?"

Wang Xiujin shook his head. It would be self-torture to climb up again. "When spring comes, bring more water bottles and take Yachang up the mountain. If the mountain road is repaired at that time, you can go up the mountain earlier and watch the sunrise at the top of the mountain." Li Sushan's eyes were full They were all smiles, Wang Xiujin turned his head away, "I still need to bring some food, so as not to be hungry on the way." Wang Xiujin propped his chin to plan.

Li Sushan listened very carefully, looking at the mountains and forests, his eyes were full of anticipation. When next spring, he and Wang Xiujin took their son to climb the mountain together, Yachang happily ran and jumped in front of him. He and Wang Xiujin walked behind the child, it seemed very It's so beautiful, just thinking of my son, the son has become more and more expressionless, running and jumping?It is hard to imagine that it will appear on the son.

The two rested in the mountains for a while, then turned around and walked towards the foot of the mountain, shoulder to shoulder, and they were talking while walking. Wang Xiujin thought that he could not wear such shoes when going up the mountain. To make money, you can't lose money like this.Li Sushan looked at the shoes on Wang Xiujin's feet and didn't think there was anything wrong with them, but he didn't refute them. Instead, he asked Wang Xiujin to make the shoes and brought him a pair.How could Wang Xiujin refuse Li Sushan's request, "I will also make a pair for my son at that time. We are a family of three, wearing the same clothes and shoes, it must be very interesting." Thinking of the father-son outfits and mother-child outfits in his previous life, Wang Xiujin rubbed his chin, considering whether to buy them or not. Will you implement such a new model in the coming year?

At the foot of the mountain, Wang Xiujin took the water from the servant, didn't dare to drink too much, just took a sip, and after a while, he took a big sip to quench his thirst!Passing the water to Li Sushan, Wang Xiujin looked at the hill that belonged to him. In his previous life, he would never have thought that one day he would build a hill to plant herbs, let alone a hill, and he would not even dare to rent a few acres of land.

"When you go back, you have to hurry up and find someone who can grow herbs. Otherwise, if the mountain is here, you can't do anything. It's a waste of money." Although there is no maintenance fee, it is not his character to leave a treasure pot unused.

Li Sushan nodded, "I will also help you pay attention."

"Then thank you, husband." Wang Xiujin especially liked to see Li Sushan's stiff look after hearing him call "husband", which was very interesting.This time Wang Xiujin was disappointed, Li Sushan was already used to Wang Xiujin's teasing, he was quite calm, he didn't have the same hands and feet, and he didn't feel stiff all over.Wang Xiujin was quite regretful, and when he got into the carriage, he sighed a lot.Li Sushan had no expression on his face, but he was in a good mood. In fact, when he was called husband, he still felt numb, but because he couldn't express it, people couldn't see it. This was the first time Li Sushan was glad that he had no expression.

It was already past noon when the two returned to the capital. Li Sushan sent Wang Xiujin to the shop and then went to the barracks. Wang Xiujin recruited shopkeeper Wang to discuss where to find someone who can grow herbs. Shopkeeper Wang hurriedly replied that he had already told the grain collectors Yes, inquire in various villages when they collect grain, if you meet such a person, write it down, and he will invite him when the time comes. "When I mentioned this matter at the time, I played a small game. I only said that a distant relative had a strange disease and needed several kinds of medicinal materials, but I couldn't find them in all major pharmacies. The bigger it is, a few days ago, I found the seeds of these kinds of medicinal materials in a pharmacy, so I thought about finding someone to plant them myself."

"Treasurer Wang, you are too nonsense." Wang Xiujin shook his head after listening to the reason that shopkeeper Wang uttered, "We didn't plan to hide it, if we can grow it on a large scale, it can also make the doctor's consultation fee Lower it a bit. However, it is right to hide it now. It saves some people from feeling that they are blocking their way, and making small moves will ruin the big thing. How can it be possible to prevent thieves every day? The fourth prince has not trained people yet, so it is better to keep a low profile good."

"Boss, there is one more thing." Shopkeeper Wang hesitated for a while, "I am an old acquaintance with the shopkeeper of Yanzhi Shop in the south of the city. A few days ago, he asked me to give his distant relative a job, and he agreed without thinking much."

"The shopkeeper of the Yanzhi shop in the south of the city, the one surnamed Chen? He is a loyal person." Wang Xiujin thought about it for a while, and then remembered who the shopkeeper was. "What kind of work did you do?"

"I haven't made any arrangements yet. I'm thinking of asking my boss to have a look before making a decision. It's just that person..."

"What's wrong?" Wang Xiujin picked up the teacup and drank it slowly without raising his eyes. He already guessed in his heart that this distant relative might have some background, otherwise a shopkeeper would worry about not being able to accommodate relatives.

"It's a head catcher who was kicked out of the yamen."
