Chapter 36: Your own things, free to dispose of them
The little prince just wanted to buy some goods, so Xiao Jingyan naturally changed his expression and gave him a smile that was uglier than crying.
From instructing Wang Tiezhu to introduce the arms to the former envoy, to today he personally demonstrated these high-tech gadgets to Wanyan Longmu.
Xiao Jingyan just wanted to sell these things to Qian Shuo at a high price in exchange for more gold, silver and jewelry for Shi Xi.
Now, the fish is hooked!
Since others want to buy it, Xiao Jingyan is naturally happy to sell it.
Their Qianshuo is rich in mineral resources and produces a lot of furs, all of which are what Xiao Jingyan needs.
In order to create more jewelry for Shi Xi, Xiao Jingyan even planned to go to Qianshuo to rent a mine.
"So, what do you think of setting this fake fight between our two armies for tomorrow?"
After deciding on the price of the down jacket and the thermos and setting the time for the performance, both parties left.
After Xiao Jingyan returned to the military camp, he asked Wang Tiezhu and others to prepare what Wanyan Longmu needed, and he also packed some snacks and drinks for them in the box.
Only by doing a good job of publicity can you attract more customers to buy things.
Xiao Jingyan knew that there would be a war between him and the Great Yong court eventually, so he had to prepare in advance.
"Your Majesty, do you really believe what those former masters said?"
Behind closed doors, Zhimo asked anxiously.
He felt that although it was agreed that the war was just a show, he was also afraid that those former Shuo people would suddenly change their minds and take ruthless action against the Xiao family army.
"We know very little about Qian Shuo and Wanyan Longmu, so we naturally cannot completely trust what he says."
"Pass the order down, have the army prepare for the battle tomorrow, and everything can proceed as normal."
Reminding the soldiers to prepare things according to normal combat and to be alert is also to enable everyone to respond to changes with the same attitude.
If Qian Shuo suddenly changed his mind, their Xiao family army would not suffer a disastrous defeat.
After giving these instructions, Xiao Jingyan's eyes unconsciously glanced at the scroll on the wall.
I haven't seen Shi Xi for two days, and I don't know what she has been busy with recently.
Thinking of Shi Xi, Xiao Jingyan wanted to go over and see her while it was still not too late.
He had people guard the door of his room strictly and not allow anyone to come in.
Before going to see Shi Xi, he even changed into a more handsome set of clothes, burned some incense, and dressed himself up, finally looking a bit like a prince.
After doing these things, he picked up the knife, cut his finger, dripped blood on the painting, and opened the transmission channel of the scroll.
Coming to the familiar room, Xiao Jingyan looked around and saw that it was pitch black. He thought Shi Xi was not there again. Just as he was about to leave, he heard the sound of the door opening.
The batch of solar panels that Shi Xi had ordered online had just arrived. Shi Xi had written Yan Ran's home address, so she had just returned from unloading the goods at Yan Ran's house.
She was so tired and sweaty that as soon as she opened the door, she saw Xiao Jingyan, who was dressed up carefully.
"Hey, you're here?"
Shi Xi greeted him in a familiar manner.
"Miss Shi's arm is..."
The first thing Xiao Jingyan saw after turning on the light in the room was a bandage on Shi Xi's arm, and he asked worriedly.
"Oh, it's just a minor injury, it's almost healed!"
Shi Xi spoke to him in a calm tone, with an indifferent look on her face.
In fact, when she was directing the workers to move the solar panels just now, her arm was injured due to the collision and constant movement.
Although there was no bleeding, she felt that the wound had obvious signs of tearing.
"Miss Shi, have you been out and just come back?"
Xiao Jingyan is particularly concerned about Shi Xi's movements.
Shi Xi nodded naturally, took out her cell phone and showed him the video of the solar panels.
"Look, this thing can generate electricity. I bought it for you for a thousand dollars. One day, when you bring the painting to the top of the mountain where you are, I will transmit it to you and teach you how to install and use it."
Shi Xi's video was just an installation and usage video sent by the merchant. After watching it, Xiao Jingyan still didn't understand what the function of these big boards was.
What is solar power generation?
"I remember that when we first met, the girl told me that almost everything here is powered by electricity."
"For example, lights that turn on when you touch a switch, TV programs that play programs, and refrigerators that keep food fresh all run on electricity."
Hearing him talk about this, Shi Xi nodded repeatedly.
The young prince is busy with all kinds of things, but he actually remembered what happened this time!
"But, I don't have any of these things that require electricity to operate. I wonder what the purpose of using these solar panels is?"
Xiao Jingyan frowned. He was satisfied with the current situation of the Xiao family army and didn't want Shi Xi to give them more things. He was afraid that he would never be able to repay Shi Xi in his next life.
"Don't worry, let's install the electricity first. It will be more convenient if I send you something that needs power control in the future."
"Look, it's written in the product description that these solar panels only need five hours of sunlight a day, which is perfect for a place like Lingyao City where sunlight has become a luxury."
For fear that Xiao Jingyan might not understand, Shi Xi specially found the above content from the product introduction and pointed it out to Xiao Jingyan bit by bit.
In order to allow Xiao Jingyan to see more clearly, the two of them were sitting very close to each other, as if they could bump into each other's heads if they weren't careful.
At this distance, the slightly strong scent of ancient sandalwood on Xiao Jingyan's body penetrated directly into Shi Xi's nose.
It is a kind of fragrance that is high-profile yet simple, and elegant yet strong.
Maybe it was because Xiao Jingyan had smoked too much, so it was a bit choking, but it was definitely a smell that made people feel at ease.
"Xiao Jingyan, the smell on you... is very special."
Shi Xi sniffed and sniffed the scent on his body again.
She felt that this flavor should cure insomnia, and she could order some when she was in a bad mood.
"Is your incense expensive? Do you have any more?"
Shi Xi asked cryptically.
Xiao Jingyan also understood that she wanted it.
"I still have a lot. I'll find a box for Miss Shi when I get back."
Seeing him so generous, Shi Xi nodded with satisfaction.
"Thank you."
She imitated the ancient people in TV dramas and bowed to Xiao Jingyan.
"Miss Shi has prepared so many things for us, but the gifts I give her in return are always unsatisfactory."
"But don't worry, young lady. Today, I have negotiated a deal with the young prince Qian Shuo. I sold the things you gave me to Qian Shuo at a high price and blackmailed him."
"I wonder if the young lady will blame me for selling those things without my permission."
"If the young lady doesn't like it, I will go and get it back tomorrow."
Xiao Jingyan put in a lot of mental preparation before deciding to sell the things Shi Xi gave him.
Shi Xi gave too many things. After distributing them to everyone in the Xiao family army, there were some left over, and Xiao Jingyan wanted to maximize their value.
That was why Wang Tiezhu had "entertained" the former envoy last night, showing him the strength of their Xiao family army and tempting Wanyan Longmu to ask for the item at a high price.
But he had absolutely no intention of earning the difference as a middleman, he just wanted to give the money he got from Qian Shuo to Shi Xi as well.
After hearing his relatively sincere explanation, Shi Xi just smiled.
"You also spent money to buy those things from me."
"Since you bought it, it's yours. You don't need my consent to deal with it."
She raised her eyebrows and when she looked at Xiao Jingyan, there was no displeasure in her eyes, but rather a girlish playfulness.
