The strongman's wife who traveled through time and space and became a young general

"Hahaha, it's just a joke. Don't get excited, shopkeeper." Lin Qiuer said with a smile in her eyes, speaking in a relaxed and natural manner.

As she spoke, she wrapped the chain of the long sword in her hand around her arm. The seemingly casual movement was elegant and calm.

The shopkeeper nervously watched Lin Qiuer wrap the chain around the long sword, thinking she was going to rob him, but he didn't expect her to say she wanted to buy it all together.

His bitter face immediately broke into a smile again, as gorgeous as a blooming chrysanthemum.

"Miss, you have a keen eye. The original selling price of these two weapons was three hundred taels of silver, but since you have such good taste, I will give you a cheaper price of two hundred and eighty taels of silver. What do you think?" The shopkeeper's tone was obviously flattering and fawning.

Lin Qiu'er looked at the wrinkles on the shopkeeper's face and his cunning eyes, secretly laughing at this treacherous old man. She looked at him meaningfully and said, "Two hundred and eighty taels? Are you sure?"

The shopkeeper looked at Lin Qiuer and suddenly felt uneasy, as if he was stripped naked and standing in the crowd.

He laughed dryly a few times and said awkwardly, "Miss, if you don't believe me, you can ask anyone. My price is really the real price."

"Real price? I guess you're treating me like a fool." Lin Qiu'er smiled, the long knife in her hand spun flexibly between her fingers, and then she threw it with force.

The long knife slashed through the air with a gust of wind, flashing with cold light, and shot straight at the honest shopkeeper. This sudden move frightened the shopkeeper so much that he froze in place. The next moment, he fell to the ground, his face full of horror and his hands spread out to block his eyes.

"Miss, if you have something to say, please say it nicely. If you think this price is not suitable, let's discuss it again." The shopkeeper shouted, forcing a smile on his face that was uglier than crying.

When the long knife was still a finger away from the shopkeeper, Lin Qiuer exerted force on her wrist, the chain retracted, and the long knife flew back to her eyes. She stretched out her hand to grasp the handle of the knife and nodded with satisfaction.

"Two hundred taels." Lin Qiuer said lightly.

When the shopkeeper heard the price Lin Qiu'er said, his face instantly wrinkled, "Miss, your price is too high. This blacksmith shop will not make any money in the future if it sells at this price."

Lin Qiu'er looked at the shopkeeper's bitter face and felt amused.

She asked sincerely, "Boss, is it really not possible to sell it? Don't you think we are rich suckers and just ask for a random price? I think you are a little dishonest."

The shopkeeper had a look of being struck by lightning. He had been using this rhetoric for more than ten years, and no young man or woman rich enough to afford weapons worth more than a thousand taels of silver had ever haggled with him over a few dozen taels of silver.

I never thought that when I was very old, one day I would be exposed by a teenage girl who seemed inexperienced.

"Well, fine. Considering the young lady's extraordinary talent and the fact that she can swing a 120-jin long sword, two hundred taels is two hundred taels." The shopkeeper said dejectedly with a look of great loss on his face.

Lin Qiu'er looked at the shopkeeper's expression and laughed secretly in her heart.

She didn't believe that the shopkeeper was telling the truth. Businessmen are liars and all they say is to cheat her out of her money.

But she didn't care about these little details. After all, she was not someone who could be fooled by a few sweet words.

She took out another stack of silver bills, counted out two hundred taels and threw them to the shopkeeper, then grabbed the spear that Lin Nanye had just chosen, and quickly left the blacksmith shop with Chang Qing.

After taking a few steps, a flying knife with a cold glow suddenly flew out from the corner in front and headed straight for Lin Qiuer.

Lin Nanye and Chang Qing were horrified and were about to rush over to help Lin Qiuer block the flying knife, but they saw Lin Qiuer lightly kicking and pushing them away.

In the anxious and puzzled eyes of the two, Lin Qiuer sighed helplessly, "Why are you so anxious? This flying knife is obviously not aimed at me."

"Look, the flying knife is heading for the door frame of the blacksmith shop, not for me."

With a "bang", the flying knife accurately penetrated into the wooden door frame of the blacksmith's workshop.

After Lin Nanye and Chang Qing saw the trajectory of the flying knife clearly, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

The two looked up and found that there was a piece of paper stuck on the flying knife inserted into the door frame.

Chang Qing flew over to take down the flying knife and the piece of paper, took out the piece of paper and took a look at it, and was immediately shocked, "Miss Lin, Mr. Lin, please take a look at what is written on it."

Lin Qiuer realized from the moment the flying knife appeared that it was not aimed at her, so it had only one purpose, which was to convey some kind of message.

"What's written on it?"

Chang Qing handed the paper to Lin Qiu'er, and Lin Nanye also stepped closer to Lin Qiu'er and leaned over to read it. It said: Lin Nanyue is being chased, hurry out of the city to the Nalan Mountains to rescue her.

After seeing the contents on the piece of paper, Lin Qiuer and Lin Nanye's faces changed instantly.

Lin Qiuer snatched the piece of paper from Changqing's hand, read it carefully several times, and after confirming that she was not mistaken, she clenched her palm, crumpled the paper into a ball and held it tightly in her palm.

Then he jumped up and used his body skills to rush towards the Gu family carriage parked outside Qingyang Street. Lin Nanye and Chang Qing, who were a few steps behind, also lifted the curtain of the carriage and entered the carriage.

"Leave the county."

When Lin Qiuer saw that everyone was present, she gave instructions to the coachman sitting outside the carriage.

Upon hearing the order, the coachman silently tightened the reins and the carriage drove towards the gate of the county town.

Lin Nanye watched the carriage start and couldn't help asking Lin Qiu'er, "Little sister, didn't Song Congyuan say before that the county is under martial law now? Can we get out like this?"

Chang Qing raised his chin, knocked on the carriage, raised his eyebrows and asked Lin Nanye, "Mr. Lin, have you forgotten whose carriage this is?"

"What a stupid question you're asking. Of course I know this is your Gu family's carriage." Lin Nanye rolled his eyes, feeling that Chang Qing had something wrong with his brain.

Seeing that Lin Nanye didn't understand what he meant, Chang Qing was a little depressed and explained, "Mr. Lin, since you know that this is the Gu family's carriage, why did you ask if it can leave the city gate? Isn't it obvious?"

"Third brother, don't worry." Lin Qiu'er glanced at the two of them, closed her eyes slightly, leaned against the carriage, and tried to calm herself down.

"Besides, I just saw Song Congyuan heading towards the county gate. The Gu Mansion's carriage can't get us out, so the title of Young Master Song should still be of some use."

Hearing the names of the Gu family and Song Congyuan, Lin Nanye belatedly realized that the Gu family was the family of a garrison commander, and Song Congyuan was the nephew of County Magistrate Song.

This way, he felt relieved. As long as they could get out of the county town, it would not affect their rescue of their fourth brother.

"Changqing, after you send my brother and me out of the city gate, you can get off the car and go back." Lin Qiuer suddenly said.

She has sorted out all the things and passed the news of Lin Nanyue being hunted to her people, but she doesn't know whether they are enemies or friends.

It seems that there are many forces in Lingao City that have been keeping an eye on the Gu family. She needs to let Changqing tell Gu Anqing about this situation first, so that he can strengthen his precautions.

"Miss Lin, but the young master asked me to follow you." Chang Qing was worried about Lin Qiuer and her brother leaving the county alone.

Lin Qiuer opened her eyes, glanced at Changqing calmly, and asked, "How many people do you think are there in Lingao County who can defeat us brothers and sisters?"
