Although Gui Muxin smiled innocently, her words were filled with wit: "I heard recently that the young lady has a shop in the West Market that needs to be renovated. I wonder if we could do our best to help?"

Before Gui Muxin finished speaking, Ren Baozhi responded directly.

Since she was paying someone for help anyway, why wouldn't she spend the money on the woman?

She originally hired those male craftsmen because she couldn't find a female craftsman. Now that she has found one, she no longer needs those men.

What's more, Ren Baozhi is having a headache about renovating the store.

She had been thinking about sound insulation before. Although the shop was located in a busy area and was crowded with people, its disadvantages were also very obvious. It was noisy and too noisy.

She envisioned a newspaper office that would not only sell newspapers, but also provide customers with a place where they could read quietly. Women need their own space, a space where they can be undisturbed by men.

The building materials provided by the system include sound insulation cotton, but Ren Baozhi has always been hesitant to let the male craftsmen do it, for fear that they would speak out without restraint and spread the news everywhere. Then not only would he not be able to explain himself clearly, but the whole thing would become a mess.

But now that she met Gui Muxin, she felt inexplicably at ease, and even she herself felt a little puzzled.

"Now that our deal is done," Ren Baozhi asked, "Could Madam Gui please answer my earlier questions?"

Gui Muxin looked around and whispered in her ear, "Young lady, you don't know that the reason this colored glass is so priceless is that they believe it is a naturally occurring treasure. The colored glass we have here is all refined by ourselves."

Ren Baozhi was really shocked this time. These women were much more capable than he had imagined.

If such people can use it for their own benefit, those simpler modern gadgets may also be able to reappear in the world.

Once the girls' school is built, if these ladies are willing to learn math, physics, and chemistry, she can't even imagine how astonishingly fast the world in this book will develop.

Just thinking about it made Ren Baozhi feel her heart pounding, but she was not in a hurry.

Everything has to be done step by step. I have to spend time getting to know Gui Muxin first. Only after I have thoroughly confirmed his abilities and character can I lay out my cards and entrust him with confidence.

Ren Baozhi was very busy during the day, and she did not dare to slack off at night. Now she had begun to lead everyone to learn some real martial arts.

Ever since her last fight with the man in black, she had deeply realized that bare hands were no match for the blind sword.

After all, she is a good citizen in modern times and has never thought about carrying weapons and fighting.

However, things are different now. She is now living in the ancient times - an ancient time when people were ruthless in killing and regarded human life as worthless.

She had to change her ways and find a way to protect herself.

But after practicing for so long, she still couldn't find a weapon that suits her.

Fortunately, Gui Muxin's team has a wide range of business and is extremely efficient. After Ren Baozhi handed her the drawings and materials, within a few days, several straight and long knives, each about one meter long, were delivered to her.

Ren Baozhi drew the sword from its sheath, and a cold light flashed, like frost on autumn water. One side of the blade was as thin as paper, while the other side was thick and stable. The head of the blade was not in the shape of a pointed cone, but a blunt angle as a whole.

Ren Baozhi tried swinging the knife twice. The blade was sharp and very tough, and it broke through the air without any sense of stagnation.

Immediately, she looked at the old tree beside her, stretched out her body, and chopped the branch with a knife in the air. The thick branch broke with a sound.

The saying "cutting iron like mud" is not empty words.

Ren Baozhi was very satisfied. She readily gave Gui Muxin the money and returned to the princess's mansion.

After dinner, Ren Baozhi took a short rest and then walked into the yard alone.

The moon is hanging in the middle of the sky, and its bright light fills the courtyard. There is no snow tonight, but the ground is covered with silver.

The breeze blew gently, passing through the sparse branches, making a rustling sound.

Ren Baozhi was dressed in white, with a nimble figure, like a dragon leaping into the sky, and each of his moves was filled with a murderous aura.

The blade reflected the moonlight, revealing its sharp edge in the coldness.

Her movements became faster and faster, and the long sword in her hand turned into a silver lightning, cutting through the entire night sky.

With a "clang" sound, a long sword darted out like a snake from a cave, striking the blade in Ren Baozhi's hand with a clear and crisp sound.

Ren Baozhi's heart skipped a beat. She was so absorbed in practicing sword skills that she didn't even notice when another person appeared beside her.

Sensing the danger, she acted decisively, swung her sword back, and slashed at the black-clad man's legs.

Unexpectedly, the opponent not only did not avoid, but stepped lightly on the back of the knife, took advantage of the momentum to fly into the air, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Ren Baozhi's eyebrows.

Ren hugged the branch and raised her head to avoid the sharp edge. The crescent moon was in the sky, and the figure of the man looked more graceful in the moonlight.

Although her face was hidden in the darkness, Ren Baozhi still saw it clearly. The man in black who suddenly appeared was Li Qixi.

"Princess?" Ren Baozhi was surprised for a moment, then spun in the air to avoid Li Qixi's attack.

It's no wonder that Ren Baozhi was surprised. Perhaps because the palace affairs were busy, Li Qixi had almost been living in the palace during this period, and Ren Baozhi hadn't seen her for a long time.

Li Qixi continued to attack: "Shouldn't it be me?"

Ren Baozhi blocked the way and said, "It's just that I haven't seen the princess for some time."

"Don't talk," Li Qixi said, "Focus."

Ren Baozhi was already worried that there was no one to be her sparring partner, so she naturally agreed to Li Qixi's proposal with pleasure.

She focused on the confrontation in front of her and no longer resisted blindly. She waved the long sword in her hand, and the two of them kept changing their positions amid the flashes of swords and sabers.

One is like lightning and thunder, the other is like a violent storm.

Ren Baozhi found the right gap and suddenly chopped towards Li Qixi's right arm.

Before the blade touched Li Qixi's sleeve, the cold blade had already touched Ren Baozhi's left neck.

The two men stopped their movements at the same time. Li Qixi put away his sword and raised his eyebrows slightly: "You lose."

Ren Baozhi was willing to admit defeat: "The princess's martial arts skills are extraordinary, and I am not comparable to her."

"Let me see your knife." Li Qixi's eyes fell on the long knife held in Ren Baozhi's right hand.

Ren Baozhi didn't give it to her. Instead, sheathed the knife and nodded at Li Qixi with a smile: "Princess, please wait a moment."

Not long after, she returned with a long sword and threw it to Li Qixi: "This is for the princess."

Li Qixi pulled out a piece of the sword blade, and saw that the blade light was like water, which could clearly reflect his own face.

After she had fully drawn the long sword, she weighed it gently in her hand, twirled it in a circle, and a rare excitement flashed in her eyes: "This sword is not an ordinary one, it can't be forged from ordinary steel."

"The princess truly has a discerning eye for treasure," Ren Baozhi said. "This is a long sword I had specially forged. It's tough and resistant to corrosion."

Li Qixi knew that the person in front of him could create objects out of thin air, so he didn't ask much. He just looked at Ren Baozhi with a somewhat confused expression.
