REINCARNATION GODDESS OF MEDICINE
171. Military Base
"Armament shop ? You can buy at the city border. There are so many there, isn't it more ideal to ask from the Palace ?" Lan Qing asked in surprise.
"Request from the Palace ? I'm afraid they don't even have enough weapons to protect their own place. " Chang Rui replied with a faint smile.
Chang Rui said this with double intent, but in the end Lan Qing could not catch the intent of his words.
Lan Qing was indeed smart but in the end lacked experience and lack of learning. People like Lan Yang and Lan Ming were people who were easy to feel envious of.
The reason why he said that they felt jealous was because they considered that they had gained their hard-earned abilities and wanted to compete with everyone including those closest to them.
It was a frequent thing, other than they did not want to share their knowledge. They also do not want to be rivaled, this is a bad trait.
Indeed not everyone was like that, but one that was certain was that Lan Ming and Lan Yang were such people.
One who is easy to feel envious and at that moment does not want to share his knowledge.
"Lan Qing, since in the future you will follow me then it is good for you to always pay attention to whatever I do, I am sure that it will help you. " Chang Rui said seriously.
"At this time, I have to go to the Palace. You and Cuiyun just stay at the inn." Chang Rui flicked his sleeves and closed the bracelet that was on his wrist.
"Miss, don't they know that we've returned ? " Task Cuiyun in surprise.
"It was easy, I just stayed saying that I forgot one thing and Wu City had been attacked by a savage beast. " Chang Rui said with a thick face.
That way then he would get some more money from the Palace to buy weaponry from some iron craftsmen.
"Miss, I think you'd be ashamed if you did this. " Cuiyun said awkwardly.
Even if Cuiyun thought about it, it had made him feel extremely embarrassed but Chang Rui said it out loud as if it was a brilliant plan.
"The shame of not being able to give you food and safety, what's wrong with throwing away your shame for survival ?" Chang Rui asked casually.
Chang Rui was a flexible person, as long as he did not step on his pride, then Chang Rui did not mind to throw away his pride.
As he said earlier, shame can't make you full. In the end Chang Rui returned to the Palace without a doubt and met Liu Chang.
"Daughter Cheng Qing ?" Liu Chang asked in surprise at his seemingly awful condition of not wearing shoes.
"Eunuch Liu ! Please help me to report this, that this servant wants to meet with him to discuss Wu City.
When this servant wanted to go home, Wu City had been surrounded by beasts. "Chang Rui spoke sadly and appeared to be crying.
"Take Princess Cheng Qing to wear new clothes and shoes and bring Princess Cheng Qing to meet with Her Majesty. "Liu Chang's Government.
Then, some of the Palace maids brought her to change into more decent clothes.
"Cheng Qing, I've heard of your problems. How did you decide to handle this matter ? " Task Yu Lian.
"The servant intends to buy weaponry and build a high iron wall, especially since Wu City borders the bar people. In exchange, Wu City was willing to serve as a military base for soldiers on guard. " Chang Rui said with a sharp look.
"Military base, hm ?" Yu Lian seemed to be stroking her beard and thought hard about the advantages Chang Rui had offered.
"For so long the soldiers did not have a decent stopping place, but this time if the war heated up then they could retreat and wait for reinforcements inside Wu City. " Chang Rui said authoritatively.
Yu Lian had unknowingly been manipulated by Chang Rui who indeed wanted her to send troops to Wu City.
That way most of the soldiers would be easily held within Wu City. At that moment, the overthrow of Yu Lian's throne was even easier to do just like the turning of a palm.
"In addition, we plan to build an iron wall as high as four adults so that barbarians are difficult to penetrate into Wu City. " Chang Rui said seriously.
At this moment, Yu Lian really wanted to judge but the advantage given by her Princess was too favorable.
"If father is in doubt then Cheng Qing will wait patiently until father has a decision. " Chang Rui said not forcefully.
The more he forced it would make people even more suspicious. But the more he is off guard then people will see that he is not pushy and does not care about this exchange.
Chang Rui was really serious in this matter and this was a huge gamble, if he succeeded then it would give a more decent life to Wu City while if it did not succeed then yes already.
There was no loss whatsoever that he received if he failed to obtain this exchange, at most he had to spend more money.
But it was fine, the treasures that Lan Yang and Lan Ming had were more than enough in fact.
So just need to wait, oh yes there has been no news from Yu Qingyun yet. Is Yu Qingyun still alive with her illness ?
Chang Rui stared at Yu Lian with a very calm gaze, as if he did not care about any of Yu Lian's decisions.
the more he looked towards Chang Rui the more Yu Lian felt doubtful, at first he immediately wanted to cancel out of displeasure.
But, in the end the advantage given by Chang Rui was simply too great. Greater than he could accept.
"Alright, I agreed with 2.5 million Taels to build the gate and 1 million Taels for weaponry. I'll send 150 people to go with you later. " Said Yu Lian..
In the end, Yu Lian's greed defeated her common sense. It was obvious Yu Lian knew that if she helped Yu Cheng Qing then it was like feeding to a tiger.
Merely, Yu Lian was really too stupid to understand all the dangers contained behind this matter.
"Yu Cheng Qing was grateful for the wise decision that Ayahanda had !" Yu Cheng Qing cried while kneeling.
