[Chapter 242] Only your own home is the most comfortable!

(0242)

【Today's third update is delivered!】

As rare things become expensive, the price will rise. In some places, even if there is a price but no market, the ten sets of glass cups in Kuiyuan Building were finally obtained by relying on the relationship between the Qing Palace. If there is no relationship between the Qing Palace, the price may not be able to be bought even if it doubles. This is also the main reason why the Qing Palace can borrow the glass cups in Kuiyuan Building and have not been returned for a long time.

Xu Xingxia nodded gently and said in a deep voice: "Okay! That's all!"

Liu Zhiqiang said goodbye happily. He believed in his own vision and believed that Xu Xingxia was definitely not a person who spoke nonsense. The other party had no need to fool him. Since he said that, he would be sure to get a lot of glass. It seems that he would soon be able to make a big profit. In the northwest region, the sales of glass must be priced at the same time! He was in a good mood and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to greet him more and more attentively.

As a result, Wu Haiming's face looked a little bad. After all, among these people, he is the real boss! No matter how capable Xu Xingxia is, he is still a "dai" Qianhu who has just been promoted to death. He is a fifth-rank military officer! He is a serious commander of the guard and commander of the third-rank military officer! However, in Liu Zhiqiang's eyes, there is only Xu Xingxia, and Wu Haiming is completely ignored.

To be honest, Wu Haiming himself knew that in a place like Kuiyuanlou, his little guard commander Tongzhi could not be on the table. There are too many big names in Ningxia Town. However, even if you look down on me, don’t be so flattering to one of my subordinates! No matter what, Xu Xingxia is my subordinate! You only have my subordinates in your eyes, but not me. What does this mean?

What's even more terrible is that I have more subordinates here. Even if you Liu Zhiqiang wants to curry favor with Xu Xingxia, can you find a separate place? You just think they don't exist at all! What would they think when they see this scene? Will they think that Wu Haiming is worse than Xu Xingxia? Do you think that following Xu Xingxia has a more promising future? Isn't this an obvious slap in the face? I have seen someone bullying, but never seen someone bullying like this. I would have known that there would be such a scene and I wouldn't say that I would come to Kuiyuan Tower.

Wu Haiming's worries are not without reason. He knows a little bit about the people around him. To put it bluntly, these guys are just mothers. Whoever can give them more benefits will follow. Since they can betray Zhou Chaoshun, commander of the Wei Dynasty, and surrender to his Wu Haiming, they can naturally surrender to his Wu Haiming and surrender to Xu Xingxia. If Xu Xingxia is willing to accept it.

Indeed, after a series of events, Wu Haiming's subordinates had inevitably changed their views on Xu Xingxia. Now, their psychology is a bit subtle. It is absolutely impossible for them to sincerely welcome Xu Xingxia's arrival. They still feel that Xu Xingxia has crossed the boundary and violated their interests. However, they dare not show hostility too much. There is no way, Xu Xingxia's archery skills just now deeply shocked them.

The glass incident also made these people afraid of it. They didn’t know how Xu Xingxia’s glass came from and where it came from. They only knew that glass was a very precious and rare item, and it was very difficult to get it. However, Xu Xingxia was sure to win and said that he could get a lot of glass. They had to think about it again. Could Xu Xingxia’s energy be so great that it was so powerful that it could bring glass from Fujian? If that was the case, they would continue to oppose Xu Xingxia, and that would be a fool.

Xu Xingxia, who is powerful in archery, is not the most terrifying. No matter how skillful Xu Xingxia's archery is, it is limited. He only needs to dispatch a large number of dead soldiers to kill him. The pure warriors in history basically have no good ending. However, if there is a lot of money in addition to archery, Xu Xingxia would be very terrible.

The guys who are both force and wealthy are not only powerful, but also have a large group of people around him. Such guys are almost invincible. They have not yet contacted Xu Xingxia's White Army's White Army, and they don't know how powerful the combat effectiveness of the White Army is. However, judging from the combat effectiveness of the White Army, those people are not good. How poor the combat effectiveness of the army that can face the Tartars head-on? With the assistance of the White Army, Xu Xingxia will be even more difficult to deal with.

Some people who are more savvy immediately think of the basic principles. Even if they don’t be friends with Xu Xingxia, they should never be enemies with Xu Xingxia! Even cunning figures like Tuoba Su died at the hands of Xu Xingxia. What are these people? Looking at the Tartar heads in Xu Xingxia, they can’t help but feel ashamed. People are afraid of death. Money and interests are important, but once they are involved, they have to be cautious. What’s the point of having money but not having life?

As a result, the atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit strange. Wu Haiming wanted to say something, and Xu Xingxia made it clear that she would not get along with him. Xu Xingxia kept eating silently, with a look of being completely blocked from people. If you want to not say something, it was a mess again. It can be said that this meal was the most depressing meal Wu Haiming had. Even if you were having a meal with your boss, you were not so depressed. This damn Xu Xingxia!

He secretly made up his mind that when Xu Xingxia arrived at Zhenshuobao and needed his help, he would definitely take care of the other party. Don’t think that my commander Tongzhi is a vegetarian! Without my consent, you should not use any of the resources of Zuotunwei! Without Zuotunwei’s resources, how could you develop Zhenshuobao?

When you drink a friend, you can drink a thousand cups of glass, and you don’t talk too much. Since everyone has no intention of eating, the meal ends hastily. About half an hour later, the commanders, Qianhu, and deputy Qianhu said goodbye one after another. Wu Haiming accompanied Xu Xingxia out of Kuiyuan Building and said slowly: "Xu Qianhu, where are you going tonight? If you don’t have a place to live, how about going to my house?"

This is his last attempt to win over Xu Xingxia.

"Mr. Wu is intent. I have to go to Prince Qing's Mansion to be on duty at night!" Xu Xingxia said calmly. Xu Xingxia's attitude towards Wu Haiming's win over was still so clear and she would never come with him. People like Wu Haiming only have their own self-interest and are not worthy of being their boss at all.

When he spoke to such an extent, Wu Haiming continued to win over it, and there was no point in his mind. He immediately said goodbye and left in disappointment. Xu Xingxia was strolling on the street alone. Going back to the Qing Palace to be on duty was just his excuse, so he did not have the obligation to be on duty in the Qing Palace.

The center of Ningxia City at night was actually quite lively. The Ming Dynasty had regulations and restrictions on merchants, but it was very encouraged for business. At the beginning, the business tax was only 33, one tax (about 3%), and then all of them were simply cancelled. As long as there were no Tartars attacks, Ningxia City would not impose a curfew, and there were no restrictions on business hours in commercial areas. As long as you are willing, it is OK to open all night long.

Xu Xingxia walked casually for a while and found that there were many vendors on the roadside, and the aroma of the kebabs was very strong. These days, the kebabs were all genuine and there were no additives, which made him very moved. In his previous life, he liked barbecue. He looked around, chose a vendor to sit down, and ordered a large plate of kebabs full of kebabs, which was as many as a dozen.

"Guard Xu is so elegant." Suddenly, Sa Wanna's voice came.

"I didn't eat enough just now." Xu Xingxia said casually without raising her head.

Sawanna sat down opposite Xu Xingxia. Compared to the daytime, her expression seemed a little haggard. Under the dim light, she seemed to feel tired. However, her beauty and elegance did not decrease at all. On the contrary, it may be because of the daytime contact, the distance between the two parties has been much closer. Looking at each other in this way, they feel that the other party is not as annoying as before.

Only Sumu Puri followed her. The largest Hu Shang in Ningxia City is now like a wooden stake, standing five feet away. If he was not a careful person, he would not be able to see that he was Sumu Puri. As for whether there were other people behind Sumu Puri, Xu Xingxia was too lazy to care about it. These were not a problem at all. After encountering during the day, how could there be few people who were secretly protected by Sa Wanna? Maybe Hu Yan Aobo was also among them, but he was embarrassed to come out and see it for Xu Xingxia.

Sa Wanna said in a casual manner: "Ever Wei Xu came out of Kuiyuan Building and came here to eat kebabs, and she still ate so much. Could it be that the dishes in Kuiyuan Building are not as delicious as here? If Boss Liu saw it, he would be sad."

Xu Xingxia said disapprovingly: "Your Highness the Queen is so bad. Eating depends on your mood. If you don't have the mood, no matter how good the dishes are, they will have no taste."

Sa Wanna smiled sweetly and said lightly: "Don't you talk to Wu Haiming?"

Xu Xingxia ate a kebab and said in a staggered topic: "Your Highness Queen, there are so many people here, I'm afraid it's not safe! Please leave early to make it safe!"

Sa Wanna smiled and said, "There is no safer place in the world than being around Xu Lao Mo. This is my personal experience. Xu Lao Mo, do you think so? You may not know who the man in black you took out of Kuiyuan Building?"

Xu Xingxia was indeed a little curious and said, "Do you know who he is?"

Sa Wanna smiled slightly, vomited softly, and whispered: "I don't know his specific name. I only know that he is nicknamed Thunder Xue and is a famous ranger in Yulin Town. This time he came to Ningxia Town, but was actually because he was chased by Yan Qiujin, the commander of the Jinyiwei. Yan Qiujin had something to do and could not pursue him personally, so she asked Zuo Guangdou to assist in the arrest."

Xu Xingxia was slightly surprised. He didn't know exactly what the origin of this snow was, and he didn't want to figure it out. You Xia'er was originally a marginal person. To put it nicely, he was a horse thief. However, Yan Qiujin had a little impression of him. Yan Qiujin, Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun and others were all the minions of Wei Zhongxian in the future. It was they who manipulated the Jinyiwei and did a lot of things that harmed the world. The Jinyiwei's reputation was already very stinky, and when he was messed with by the eunuchs, he would be even less able to see the light.

Sawanna smiled and said, "That ranger named Broken Snow has a reputation in Yulin Town similar to Tuoba Su in Ningxia Town. Xu Laomo hung him on a wooden stake with two arrows, making him unable to survive or die. It's a pity that I can't see with my own eyes. It's really a pity that I can't see with my own eyes. However, I can imagine how you took action."

Xu Xingxia smiled and said nothing. Well, he must admit that Sawanna's flattery did hit him in his heart. As long as he is a man, he probably likes to be flattered by women, especially beautiful women. The charm of some beauties is always irresistible. Xu Xingxia is not an immortal who does not eat the fireworks of the world, so it is no exception.

"Do you want a skewer?" Xu Xingxia picked up a skewer of grilled lamb and said casually.

"No, thank you." Sawanna waved her hand gently, shook her head, and said with a smile.

"That's it." Xu Xingxia put the grilled lamb skewers into her mouth and chewed them with relish.

"Tomorrow, I'm going to the capital." Sawanna said slowly.

"Beijing?" Xu Xingxia was a little surprised and subconsciously looked up at her.

Sawanna actually wants to go to the capital? What is she going to the capital? Is she planning to officially disclose her identity and accept the protection of the Ming Empire? Her current identity has actually been leaked, and it can be said that there are many crises and traps everywhere. It is indeed a good choice to formally disclose her identity and accept the protection of the Ming Dynasty. After she officially reveals her identity, if there are still assassins to take action, it will not only target her, but also target the Kingdom of Khorasan, but also target the Ming Empire. This is indeed a matter of consideration for the surrounding forces of the Ming Empire.

However, it is difficult to explain clearly what consequences will be brought to others once Sawanna's identity is revealed. There is no doubt that the Ministry of Rites of the court will definitely send someone to understand the real purpose of Sawanna's arrival and then determine her reception specifications. In addition, the East Factory and the Jinyiwei must also take action. Because, once Sawanna really discloses her identity and protects her, the important task of protecting her will definitely fall on the East Factory and the Jinyiwei.

The queen of a country cannot sneak into another country secretly for no reason. The people of the Ministry of Rites are not fools, so they naturally have to go indirectly to understand. If Sawanna does not have a reasonable explanation, it will probably be difficult to pass. Once the Ministry of Rites, Dongchang, and Jinyiwei intervene, people who had secret contact with Sawanna before, or organizations, would probably not live a good life. In a word, the situation will be even more chaotic.

Sawanna did not explain her purpose in going to the capital, but she just said thoughtfully: "I heard that you have a female friend who is also from the capital?"

Xu Xingxia said a little strangely: "Miss Azhu? That's right, she is indeed from the capital."

After thinking about it, Xu Xingxia said cautiously: "However, if you want to ask her for help, it's not easy to find her, and she won't see outsiders."

Sawanna glanced at Xu Xingxia, and at the corner of her pretty mouth, there was a faint dimples smile, and she said casually: "I didn't want her to help, I just wanted to ask, do you have anything you need to bring to her? She has been leaving Weizhen Fort for so long. Have you ever thought about giving her something valuable?"

Xu Xingxia looked at her with her head tilted. Bring something to Miss Azhu? It seemed that there was no need for this. It was impossible for ordinary people to bring things to her hands. As for the bead from last time, Wang Qinian had already sent it out. Wang Qinian himself couldn't say when it would reach her hands. After all, her identity was quite secret.

Sawanna's attitude is very sincere. It seems that she has indeed inquired about some information. With Sumu Puri, the local snake, she can grasp a lot of things. Maybe she can guess the identity of Miss Azhu. Since she guessed that she was willing to work hard to bring something to her, it means that she still wanted to make friends with her. Perhaps, this is also a disguised relationship. If she can protect her safety, it is of course the best.

Well, as her Queen, she might have the chance to have a face-to-face contact with Zhu Hengzhi. As long as she asks to meet Zhu Hengzhi, the Ministry of Celebrities will report it as appropriate. As long as Zhu Hengzhi agrees, it should not be a big problem. If you have something to give it, it will be convenient and quick. Unfortunately, I didn't think of any good gifts. Giving gold, silver, jewelry, etc., I'm afraid that Zhu Hengzhi won't even look at it.

After thinking about it, Xu Xingxia shook her head and said in a deep voice: "No."

Sawanna said with some regret: "Such a good opportunity... then forget it."

After pondering for a moment, Sa Wanna said again: "I'm going to the capital this time, and I probably won't be able to return for less than a year or two. If you change your mind and think of what gifts you want to give, you might as well give the gift to me first, and I'll find a way to hand it over for you. I guess next time I pass by Ningxia Town again, I'm afraid I'll go home. Khurashan is thousands of miles away, and I'll never meet each other after years of separation. Xu Laomo, I hope that when I pass by Ningxia Town again, we will meet again."

After saying that, she stood up straight and left slowly. Her departure was just like her appearance, and it seemed very abrupt. The words behind her were even more abrupt. For a moment, Xu Xingxia was slightly ecstatic. What did she mean by saying these words? She still wanted to see me? There is no problem! I must be in Ningxia Town for a year or two!

He suddenly stood up and walked towards the north gate. He wanted to go back overnight. Suddenly, he felt that he was stimulated by Sawanna's words. He wanted to go home. Weizhen Fort is his home! No matter when, only his home is the most comfortable!
