Chapter 991: Chapter 991: Tongsanlao’s Combat Strength Has Decreased_1 Chapter 991: Chapter 991: Tongsanlao’s Combat Strength Has Decreased_1 Qiao Xiaomai was busy in the small kitchen of the Mai Yuan, preparing lunch for herself and Tong Sanlang.
Today’s dish was radish rib soup. She first placed the ingredients into the pot, then had Qiao Zhaodi start the fire.
Tong Sanlang remained weak and could only rest, unable to do any work.
With noon approaching, she needed to go cook for Yang Wenxiao. Now that she had the rib soup simring, once she finished cooking for Yang Wenxiao and returned, she could enjoy the al with Tong Sanlang straightaway.
Upon seeing the palace maid accompanying Yang Wenxiao, she hurried to the Guest House.
Inside the Guest House, Yang Wenxiao sat on the heated brick bed, leisurely sipping his tea.
When he saw her arrive, he put down his teacup and pointed to a chair, signaling her to sit, “You go back to the village and call so stable and reliable villagers over, I want to teach them the technology of these two-wheeled carts.”
“Huh?” Hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but widen her eyes, “Teach the people of Anping Village?”
“Yes,” Yang Wenxiao nodded, “Just like the heated brick bed, we’ll sell these two-wheeled carts at a low price only within the confines of Huai’an County.”
In all of Daqi, there were so many impoverished citizens; the most he could offer a discount to was those within Huai’an County.
What he most wanted to do now was to earn the money of the rich, especially from the Aristocratic Families, and to do so blatantly and by any ans necessary.
Upon hearing this, the look of surprise on Qiao Xiaomai’s face did not diminish, “How low exactly?”
“A two-wheeled cart, one tael silver,” he answered.
One tael silver—after deducting costs—would net a profit of four to five hundred coins, but he did not plan to keep even this profit; instead, he would give it all to the peasants making the bicycles.
“Um…” Qiao Xiaomai blinked, her heart filled with doubts, “Your Majesty, is this out of concern for the people?”
“Of course.”
“Then why not extend this care to all the people of Daqi…”
Showing favoritism towards Huai’an County alone was clearly partial.
If he extended his care to all the citizens of Daqi, wouldn’t the Heavens regard it like the heated brick bed, crediting this rit to her?
She sought nothing else; she only wished to extract that drop of Divine Liquid from her space to nourish Tong Sanlang’s body.
Nearly a month had elapsed, yet Tong Sanlang remained weak, unable to engage in any labor, spending all day lying on the bed.
Worse still, he said there was now an emptiness in his Elixir Field.
The Elixir Field was the storage place for internal energy. His agility surpassed ordinary people due to the abundant internal energy in his Elixir Field.
But now that he ntioned emptiness within his Elixir Field, did that an he was like any ordinary person from now on?
Tong Sanlang becoming an ordinary expert was sothing Qiao Xiaomai internalized with guilt and wished ti could be reversed to prevent all of this from happening.
Being beyond the ordinary in agility, which allowed him freedom of movent, was Tong Sanlang’s greatest reliance, it was his ans of survival.
But now that he was just an ordinary expert, should the Yang Family harbor any designs in the future, it was very probable that he might not escape.
This was too frightening.
Therefore, ever since he revealed that, she had been trying to extract that drop of Divine Liquid.
No matter how hard she tried, the drop of Divine Liquid was immovable as though glued in place.
This made her anxious and even contemplated going to Deng Chun to demand the Divine Liquid in his possession.
Of course, for the ti being, she was only considering it.
Unless absolutely necessary, she would not reveal her identity as a Transmigrator to a third person.
So when Yang Wenxiao displayed concern for the people, her thoughts quickly sprang to life.
Places outside of Huai’an County, poorer than it, needed Yang Wenxiao’s concern even more!
