"Mr. Li asked me to ask you for a favor. Please help him rent warehouses in various places to store these medicinal herbs. The herbs transferred from the various medicine shops of the He family can be transported directly to the warehouses."

Jiang Lili took out the warehouse rental deposit and contract that she had prepared and placed them in front of He Jing: "If you are willing, you can review this contract and sign it."

He Jing knew that many officials were exiled because they had connections and protectors.

The protective umbrella of the Zhaoping Marquis Mansion is the Li family. This can be seen from the few yamen runners who often lend a hand to the Zhaoping Marquis Mansion.

Therefore, he was not surprised that Jiang Lili had a connection with Mr. Li. "Of course I am willing. If I can help the He family, I am willing to do it!"

He Jingzai checked the contract carefully. It was very formal and there were no problems. The deposit was also sufficient.

Jiang Lili suddenly had an idea: "By the way, doesn't the drugstore across from you sell herbs at super low prices? You can also buy these herbs from them, but you have to hurry."

He Jing looked at the herbs that Jiang Lili had circled and said, "Sophora flavescens? This stuff is cheap and common, why do you need so many?"

Jiang Lili nodded profoundly, "If you want to get out of this storm unscathed, just listen to me, ask less and do more."

What they are fighting for is the information gap!

The news of the shortage of Sophora flavescens in the capital has not yet spread to Lingnan, but it won’t be long before drug dealers from the Central Plains will come to Lingnan to ask for goods. We must hurry and seize this opportunity to pick up bargains.

"Don't worry, I have no reason to harm you. It's easy for you He family to punish me, a fugitive."

Jiang Lili's face was sincere, her eyes were burning, and her eyes were filled with the hope that her son would become successful: "I would like to take this opportunity to make friends with the head of the He family. Haizhou is a desolate place, and I will need your help in the future."

He Jing responded repeatedly, "Of course, of course!"

Then he asked the servant to bring the horses, "Miss Jiang, I will do as you say now. I will go to the counties of Nantong to give instructions immediately."

He Jing also knew his own worth. If Jiang Lili tried to play tricks on him, he would probably be cheated out of half of his wealth.

But now, following Jiang Lili, the benefits are real and visible.

During this month, not only has his skin improved, but his body has also become visibly stronger. The reactions of people around him can never lie. Jiang Lili is like a rebirth to him.

He Jing, dressed in green, got on the horse. His back revealed a bit of elegance. Jiang Lili felt a sense of accomplishment in transforming an ugly duckling.

Next, Li Sicong and He Jing agreed to purchase the He family’s unsaleable medicinal materials at purchase price.

Jiang Lili passed by these medicinal materials collection points one after another on her way to exile, and would "deliver" the goods to Qi Yun while resting at the post stations at night.

As for how the squad leader can reasonably carry out this batch of medicinal materials, the squad leader has a backup plan.

At dinner, Xin Che gave Jiang Lili another snack. He caught a wild rabbit and roasted it for her.

These days, Jiang Lili is a little tired of eating the dishes made by Chef He Jing. She really misses the roasted game made by Xin Che. It is very burnt and fragrant, and compared with the chef's light style, Jiang Lili misses it very much.

However, Jiang Lili felt that it was already great to have a chef cooking for her, and it would be too much trouble to ask Xin Che to get game. Therefore, Jiang Lili did not express her idea of ​​eating grilled game.

So at this moment, Jiang Lili was very surprised to see Xin Che walking towards her with a rabbit and a pheasant, "How did you know that I really want to eat barbecue recently!"

Xin Che's icy face was originally tense because the rabbit in his hand was moving around uncontrollably. Now he was afraid of scaring Jiang Lili when dealing with the rabbit.

At this time, he looked up and saw the surprise in Jiang Lili's eyes. His tightly knitted eyebrows loosened, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He did not directly answer Jiang Lili's question: "Want to eat? Go and light a fire."

"Okay~~"

Jiang Lili forgot about her problems as long as she had something to eat.

After the wild rabbit and pheasant were roasted, Xin Che looked intently at Jiang Lili as she took a big bite of meat and ate with such satisfaction. This girl always ate with relish.

Jiang Lili has been eating well, drinking well and exercising these days, and her thin face has gained weight, making her look more delicate and innocent. Seeing that she is no longer as thin as before, Xin Che feels much better.

Tonight the two of them still stayed in the tent.

Jiang Lili fell asleep quickly and slept soundly.

Xin Che was a light sleeper, and when he heard Jiang Lili talking in her sleep again, he pricked up his ears.

Today he was grilling wild game for Jiang Lili because he heard the girl muttering about "roast chicken with scallions" and "spicy rabbit head" in her dream the night before. He wanted to hear what the girl wanted to eat now?

“Taro paste Bobo milk tea…”

Jiang Lili muttered to herself.

Xin Che frowned. Why didn’t he understand?

He moved closer to Jiang Lili, trying to listen more carefully, but all he heard was the same sentence. He seemed to understand some of the words of Milk Tea. He didn't understand the first few words, but he heard the two reduplicated words "bobo" most clearly.

“Bo Bo…”

Jiang Lili's mumbling became quieter and quieter, and she fell into a deep sleep with a peaceful face.

Xin Che stared at her mumbling lips, then he realized that he was too close and could even see the crow feathers projected by Jiang Lili's fan-like eyelashes.

Xin Che stood up, turned off the night light in the tent, and went out to get some fresh air.

As soon as he came out of the tent, he saw Liao Dabao doing horse stance late at night.

"You...are you practicing martial arts?"

Xin Che couldn't help laughing when he saw Liao Dabao's stubborn little body.

"You don't understand! I'm absorbing the essence of moonlight."

Liao Ji puffed up his face. He still remembered what Xin Che said last time: "Let's talk about it when you are taller than my knees!"

Xin Che suddenly remembered the little guy's reputation as a child prodigy. He squatted down and said, "How about you answer a question for me and I'll teach you a trick?"

Liao Ji's eyes lit up: "Just ask! I promise to tell you everything I know!"

Liao Ji thought Xin Che was going to ask him about agriculture or fortune-telling, but Xin Che blurted out a sentence that almost made Master Liao lose his balance -

Xin Che asked seriously, "What is Bobo?"

Master Liao looked horrified. Why were you asking him such a question? He was still a child!

Wait, could it be that Sister Li said this modern word?

Master Liao had a gossipy look on his face, but because he was a child, he couldn't make a fuss: "Bobo, it means kiss!"

Now it was Xin Che's turn to be shocked. After Liao Dabao said this, he seemed to understand. Xin Che coughed a few times, and his white jade-like face couldn't help but turn red: "I must have heard it wrong."

Seeing Liao Dabao's meaningful look, Xin Che was a little flustered: "Hurry up and do the horse stance. I'll teach you a move and then you can go and rest. Don't let your mother worry!"

"Oh~~" Liao Ji dragged out the syllables, "I know!"

He thought of the "knee" vengeance and said cheerfully, "Brother, your face looks like today's spicy bunny head, super red."

Liao Ji's response was a slap from Xin Che.

"Children should stop prying into adults' matters!"
