"vomit!"

Su Yue, who was already feeling a little nauseous, couldn't help but dry-heave when she smelled the pungent smell of sweat. Nanny Yang was so scared that she quickly helped Su Yue sit on a chair nearby.

Seeing this, Song Mingtao immediately took a big step back, his face full of embarrassment and guilt, and hurriedly said, "Miss, I'm really sorry to let you suffer this. I just came back from negotiating a business deal outside. Please wait a moment, I'll go and clean up."

After saying that, Song Mingtao asked the waiter to pour a bowl of herbal tea for Su Yue, while he hurried to the backyard.

The waiter quickly poured a bowl of herbal tea and brought it to Su Yue, saying respectfully, "Miss, please have some tea."

Nanny Yang took the herbal tea, but she didn't feel the warmth in the tea bowl, so she handed it to Su Yue: "Miss, drink some herbal tea to calm your nerves."

Su Yue took the herbal tea and took a sip. Mint was added to this herbal tea, and the cool feeling made her feel a little more comfortable.

While patting Su Yue's back, Ren Dong said worriedly, "Girl, are you okay?"

Su Yue shook her head: "It's nothing serious, don't worry, this herbal tea is very good, you can drink some."

After hearing Su Yue's words, Rendong turned to look at the waiter. The waiter understood and poured two more bowls of herbal tea and handed them to Nanny Yang and Rendong respectively.

Nanny Yang and Honeysuckle took a sip of the herbal tea and felt cool and refreshed. The irritability caused by the heat was relieved a lot.

Honeysuckle was very surprised and said, "There is no ice in this herbal tea, but it still tastes cool."

Nanny Yang explained, "That's because mint is added to it, and mint itself has a cooling effect."

The waiter at the side agreed, "Mammy is right, this herbal tea does contain mint, and mint is very good for cooling off.

But the market has suddenly become hot these past two days, and the price of mint has started to rise. It used to be only two or three cents per pound, but now it's eleven cents per pound."

Su Yue was thoughtful after hearing this. Mint is indeed a good thing. It can not only relieve heat but also refresh breath. It seems that she has to ask Liu Qiang to buy more mint seeds and dried mint leaves.

At this time, Song Mingtao walked out from the backyard. He was wearing clean and tidy clothes and his hair was neatly combed.

He came to Su Yue and bowed his hands to apologize again: "Miss, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

Su Yue smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Song, there is no need to do this. I came here today to get supplies."

Song Mingtao looked outside the door as soon as he heard it. "Miss, where is the person in charge of transporting the supplies?"

Su Yue said mysteriously, "They are secret guards and are not likely to show up. You just need to take us there."

Song Mingtao took out the key from his arms when he heard it. "The warehouse is in the back alley of the shop. I'll take the girl there."

Su Yue nodded and signaled Song Mingtao to lead the way.

Song Mingtao led the way, and Su Yue followed closely behind with Yang Ma and Ren Dong. After passing through the shop, they came to a slightly old warehouse in the back alley.

Song Mingtao walked forward and opened the warehouse door, and a stale smell hit him in the face.

Su Yue frowned slightly, but soon regained her composure and walked into the warehouse. The light in the warehouse was a little dim, and there were various boxes and bags of different sizes.

Song Mingtao introduced: "Girl, these are all the supplies that Liu Qiang bought. The various goods are also classified and stored for easy searching."

Su Yue just glanced at it casually, and then said to Song Mingtao: "Uncle Song, when will Uncle Liu deliver the supplies today?"

Song Mingtao replied: "Because the girl said last night that she would send someone to collect the supplies today, it is estimated that it will be early today, and it should be almost here."

Su Yue thought for a while and said, "It would be great if we can meet him later. If not, please tell Uncle Song to stop storing the supplies here next month and move them back to Xiaohe Village.

Also, I will be going on a long trip next month, so I told them not to worry and that everything should go according to plan.

Also, I think today's mint tea is good, so I have to buy some mint seeds and dried mint leaves as well."

Song Mingtao nodded slightly and replied, "Don't worry, young lady. I will definitely convey your words to Liu Qiang. But isn't your daughter going to get married next month? Why do you want to travel so far?"

Su Yue smiled and said, "Uncle Song is my own man, so I won't hide it from you. I can't have this marriage, but as for why it can't be accomplished, Uncle Song will know on that day."

Song Mingtao was slightly stunned when he heard this. Being a straightforward person, he couldn't help but say, "Girl, I don't know what your plan is, but you can't joke about your life and reputation. If you make a wrong step and ruin your reputation, won't your future be even more difficult?"

Nanny Yang glanced at Su Yue and immediately said, "Old Song, you are overstepping your authority."

Song Mingtao then realized that he had made some mistakes in his words, and quickly bowed and said, "Miss, I made some mistakes, please forgive me."

Su Yue waved her hand and said calmly, "Uncle Song is thinking about me, I don't blame you. It's just that the reasons are complicated and I can't say more. When the time is right, you will understand. Now that I have made a decision, I will not change it easily."

Song Mingtao sighed in his heart, and suddenly thought of what he heard today and reminded Su Yue, "Where are you going on this journey, young lady? It's best to bring more people with you.

Because the journey may not be peaceful, I was chatting with several buyers today and learned that refugees have been found in several cities near the capital."

Refugees! Su Yue frowned upon hearing this. Isn't it just getting hot? How come there are refugees?

"Uncle Song, what's going on? Didn't the heat just start? Where did these refugees come from?"

Song Mingtao said solemnly: "Miss, you don't know that we are in the north where there is less rain. Some places in these cities have been suffering from drought since last year, so the people are naturally having a hard time.

As time went on, the people could no longer survive and had to leave their homes and become refugees.

Judging from the current situation, the number of these refugees will definitely continue to increase. If it is not controlled, it may cause greater problems. "

Su Yue felt like she was going crazy after hearing this. The plot was so different from the one in the book.

For example, there is no mention of today’s palace banquet book, nor is there any mention of the appearance of refugees at this time.

The refugees did not appear until the extreme heat occurred, and the people really could not survive due to lack of water, so they began to flee for survival.

Su Yue took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She was not afraid of the refugees, but she was afraid that the zombies would show up early. No, she had to speed up and prepare the supplies.

"Uncle Song, how many shops and farms are left unsold?"

Song Mingtao thought for a moment and replied, "There are still two shops that have not been sold, and one in the manor, but the buyers of these three shops are all in negotiation, and I think there will be a result in the next two days."

Su Yue frowned and said, "We must get rid of these shops and farms as soon as possible, and buy as much rice, flour, grain and oil as possible to store them. As for jade, there is no need to buy any more.

Now that the refugees have appeared, the situation is much worse than we expected. Uncle Song, the price can be lowered a little, but it must be sold quickly. "
