Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around

Chapter 446: Imperial Treasure Purchases Military Supplies

That day, Huang Bao came to Ye Heng and said, "Dad, time flies. We have to leave for the East China Sea!" Ye Heng said, "Dad is preparing. We will leave the day after tomorrow." Ye Heng told this in the main hall and informed his family. Guo Guo: "Then take the winter clothes and food with you." Ye Heng: "I thought so too. It's just that the Ministry of Revenue has just started processing and there is no time. Let's see if we have any in stock in our mansion?" Guo Guo smiled and said, "That's easy. I'll ask Huang Bao to buy some. I'll check the warehouse and take away as much as we can." Guo Guo came back soon, "It's really not much. Buy it." Huang Bao: "I'll go." Ye Heng: "Okay." As soon as Huang Bao arrived at the space, he went out of the light gate and came to the villa in Tianjin. He turned on the computer, contacted the senior military officials, and entered what he wanted. "Okay, everything you want will be delivered to you at midnight tonight." Huang Bao: "Okay, cash on delivery."

This time, the equipment was even better, all navy gear. One hundred thousand sets of clothing were purchased—underwear and outerwear, including boots, sabers, swimming rings, and so on. There were also large quantities of guns and ammunition, one hundred thousand pistols, and a million rounds of bullets. There were also hundreds of barrels of gasoline and motor oil. Huang Bao returned to the mansion and told Ye Heng about it. "Dad will go with you tonight, but Dad won't say anything, so you can do whatever you want." Huang Bao: "Okay, call the Demon Lord." Ye Heng: "Okay."

It was almost midnight when Ye Heng, Mo Zun, Huang Bao, and the other two arrived at the Tianjin villa. There was a knock on the door. Ye Heng, holding Huang Bao, and Mo Zun went to the door and opened it. Someone said, "Hello, Young Master. I'm the representative for this shipment of supplies. They've arrived by water. Please check." Ye Heng said, "Mo Zun, please bring out the truck." The team leader said, "We have a car on board that can help with the hauling." Ye Heng said, "Okay, let's go." Mo Zun drove the others to the beach to receive the goods.

Huangbao asked Xiao Shunzi to scan the items. Xiao Shunzi reported everything he found to Huangbao. Huangbao nodded to his father, and the car quickly drove to the shore and delivered the goods to the villa yard. Two round trips were made. On the second trip, the driver found the yard spotless; the previous goods were gone. But everyone was wise enough to keep quiet and just keep working.

The team leader said, "This batch of cargo has been unloaded." Huang Bao: "Yes." He took out his computer and typed out the money. Huang Bao: "Payed." The team leader had already received the payment. Huang Bao took out a check and handed it to the team leader, saying, "Thank you for your hard work, have a cup of tea!" The team leader took it and looked at it. Five million yuan. Not bad, he thought to himself, a tip for nothing, quite generous. The team leader smiled and said, "Goodbye, it's been a pleasure working with you!" Huang Bao nodded. "Yes, it's been a pleasure working with you!"

Watching the convoy go away, Demon Lord Ye Heng took the road to the beach, erased all traces, and then returned to the mansion, closed the gate, and turned on the automatic closing function!

Huang Bao put the things into the space. The three of them returned to the space, walked to the mountain, and saw that the things were placed on the edge of the grassland.

Ye Heng: "Take the steel out tomorrow and send it to the secret base of the Ministry of War. Take all these things to the East China Sea." Huang Bao: "Let's go out, mother is waiting." Ye Heng: "Okay." In an instant, the three of them went outside and went back to their rooms to sleep.

A driver from another convoy asked, "Boss, the things we unloaded at the yard the first time were gone by the second time. They moved it too quickly!" Without a second thought, the team leader said, "Just focus on your own work and keep quiet." The driver replied, "Yeah." The team leader reminded them again, "We're carrying out a top-secret military mission. We can't say a word." The driver replied, "Yeah, I know. I won't say a word even if you kill me."

The team leader smiled and said, "Everyone has worked hard tonight. Let's go back and divide the money. Everyone can get hundreds of thousands." The driver said: "Yeah, it's a lot." The team leader said: "This is a tip from others. It's not included in the account. Everyone, work hard and don't say anything." "We know, don't worry."

The ship quickly left here and returned to the base.

At dawn, Ye Heng asked Guoguo to deliver the steel. He arranged for a truck to take it to a secret factory at the Ministry of War and hand it over to Jiang Qin and his team to be used in making weapons. He took half the steel away, leaving the other half behind. Guoguo said, "It's safe here. We'll take it back when we're done." Ye Heng agreed.

Ye Heng arranged the military affairs. With Xiaodong in charge, the two of them handed over the task. Ye Heng returned home, ready to depart the next morning.

The Minister of Revenue came over, and Ye Heng said, "I will take the winter supplies needed by the East China Sea this time, so don't worry about it. Just prepare other supplies for the border." Yan Jiye: "Okay, thank you, Your Highness." "You can contact the caravan in advance. The caravan can deliver supplies to distant places faster." Yan Jiye said clearly, "I have already told the housekeeper Ye that the sixty carts will be back in the fall." Ye Heng nodded, "Horse-drawn carriages are convenient for nearby places, but too slow for places far away." "Yes. Our Ministry of Revenue is slow to do things. I will start preparing winter supplies for the army this year." Ye Heng nodded, "It's not your fault. You have done a good job, and I am relieved." Yan Jiye was moved by Ye Heng's words and tears came to his eyes, "It depends on your future."

Yan Jiye touched the corner of his eye, "Well, at least, I have worked hard, and Your Highness knows it. My worries have not been in vain." Ye Heng: "The Emperor has seen it all and knows that you are loyal. The Crown Prince sees it even more clearly. Work hard and you will have a good future." "Well, well, I thank Your Highness for your kindness! I'll take my leave!" Ye Heng nodded, "Well, go ahead."

Ye Heng thought that the Ministry of Revenue did have the most things to do. There was also the people's food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Ye Heng had seen letters coming in from the border these days. Nothing major, just information about officials from various places, or about corrupt officials who needed to be dealt with urgently. He gave all the letters to Xiaodong and asked him to handle them. Chai En's cabinet could help find solutions to urgent and difficult matters! Power was not in the hands of one person, which also avoided one person's monopoly. Xiaodong nodded carefully. He had known for the past six months that this cabinet was good. It handled things simply and well. It did a lot of good things for the people.

Ye Heng told Guoguo that the South-to-North Water Diversion Project was slow. Guoguo: "Do you have cement?" Ye Heng: "Send a few trucks, but it won't be enough." Guoguo: "We can use bluestone to build two walls and cement the gaps. That way we can save cement." Ye Heng: "That's a good idea. The other option is to dig in a straight line. If you encounter a mountain, you'll have to carve through it, which is slow." Guoguo: "No problem. Make explosives and blow up the mountain." Ye Heng listened, "I've read chemistry books, but I've never tried making explosives." "I'll write you a recipe and have the Ministry of War or someone you trust experiment with it. It's easy to do." Guoguo thought for a moment and wrote down the ingredients needed for the gunpowder recipe: saltpeter, sulfur, wood powder, and the saltpeter extraction process. Guoguo added, "If we use less, we can buy less." Ye Heng: "No. That way, the method won't be leaked and won't harm the people. Buy less." "Okay." Guoguo tore up the recipe. The lighter burned. Ye Heng only realized the existence of this item when he saw it. He gave it to Guoguo and was about to leave. Guoguo looked at it and said, "We sell it in the mall, but I've never seen you buy it." Ye Heng: "How should I know what this is? With this, my secret guards will be able to make fire and eat hot meals in the wild, and won't eat cold meals and get sick less." This thing is great, and Ye Heng tried to light the fire and turn it off. It's fun! Ye Heng wanted to give it to his secret guard and said, "Guoguo, go buy some more!" "Okay." In a flash, Guoguo entered the space. Go to the mall to buy lighters specifically, Guoguo tried to take them all away, maybe there will be no lighters. After a short pause, the shelves are full of lighters again. Guoguo took out another one. After a pause, the empty space was filled with lighters again. "Okay." Guoguo took away hundreds of them and left the space. Guoguo gave all the lighters to Yeheng. Yeheng tried to open them, and the blue flames were blazing big and hot. "Okay, okay, I'll give them to them right away."

Guoguo had never seen Ye Heng in a hurry, but this time he was so anxious for the secret guards. Ye Heng was very good to his subordinates! Seeing the coldness, his heart warmed.
