Chapter 1846

Cen Che suddenly pulled out a roll of account books from his sleeve and handed it to Shi Anxia through Bei Hui. "This is the inventory list and the doctor's list."

As the pages turned, there were dense records of the number of quilts and cotton-padded clothes, the number of typhoid medicines, and at the end, a list of doctors.

Shi Anxia remained calm, knowing that there might be mineral surveyors among these doctors. But so what?

What’s the point of surveying if we can’t transport it out?

Haha… Shi Anxia’s smile was more genuine than before, “Thank you, Master. I really admire you.”

Cen Che knew the time was right, so he stood up again and asked the princess, "If my Xie family can help Tiema City out of its predicament this time, can you ask the court for a title?"

Shi Anxia raised the corners of her lips slightly, and said slowly, "Mr. Xie is so frank, which makes me feel at ease. The matter of the title is not impossible to discuss."

Cen Che's eyes flickered slightly, and he was overjoyed. "Although my Xie family is a merchant family, we also have the heart to serve the country. If we can be granted a title by the court, there will be fewer obstacles in doing business and providing disaster relief in the future."

Shi Anxia once again extended her hand to invite him to drink tea, and at the end, she sighed, "Mr. Xie has gone through so much trouble, is he actually trying to borrow my influence to get an official position for the Xie family?"

Cen Che knew that what the other party was talking about was the earlier exposure of the wet nurse and the deliberate attempt to lure Shi Chengyi to ask for the carriage in the morning.

He deliberately revealed his true nature as a businessman, cupped his hands, and said calmly, "Xie Yu is ashamed. I dare not deceive Your Highness. The Xie family does have something to ask for. But what we ask for is just a legitimate confidence."

After all, if Cen Che really wanted nothing, it would be even more suspicious. Now that he took the initiative to ask for a title, it seemed reasonable. For a merchant family, it was normal to ask for an official position.

Shi Anxia pondered, as if weighing the pros and cons. After a moment, she raised her eyes and said, "Okay. If the Xie family can really help Tiema City out of its predicament, I will ask the emperor for an imperial decree on behalf of the Xie family."

Cen Che bowed deeply, "Thank you, Princess, for your help."

Shi Anxia opened his mouth loudly, "How about adding another city?"

Cen Che: “…”

You have a really big appetite, can you eat it all?

An Xia was not polite at all when he was painting the cake. "Guicheng must be short of medicine and doctors, so why not arrange for them all, Master Xie? Then I will ask the court for merit for the Xie family, and we will also arrange for the next imperial merchant."

Cen Che thought to himself that the title of Northern Wing was really worthless.

Shi Anxia was thinking that the Xie family's collusion with the prince of Liang was a capital crime, and by accumulating merit in this way, they could save some people's lives in the future.

The two looked at each other and smiled, each with their own agenda.

Cen Che officially joined An Xia's disaster relief camp.

He finished his meal with the princess and prepared to go back to make arrangements.

Bei Hui smiled as she saw Cen Che off the boat, and the way she looked at him was as if she was looking at a glittering golden purse.

Madam said that now it doesn’t matter whether this boy is a human or a ghost. As long as he can help with disaster relief, he should be treated as a human even if he is a ghost.

Her smile became more gentle and sincere. "Thank you, Sir. Please take care. If you have any urgent matters, you can come to Gongcheng Enyi Inn to find the princess."

Cen Che asked casually, "Princess, are you not in a hurry to go to Iron Horse City?"

Bei Hui replied, "Our little princess is weak and may have to stay in Gongcheng for a while. I'll ask you to discuss disaster relief with General Wu, the defender of Tiema City. The princess will inform General Wu and cooperate with you on disaster relief."

Cen Che was dizzy from what he heard, and his white fox fur left traces in the snow. When he climbed onto the horse, the jade pendant on his waist drew a beautiful arc.

Even the corners of his mouth showed a hint of imperceptible joy: This Princess of the North Wing is too easy to fool! Who said that the princess was meticulous, but it turned out to be just like this.

Women, after all, have long hair but short knowledge!
