Chapter 720: Chapter 720: One Hundred Thousand White Flower Silvers
“No need to worry! Zhao Jiong won’t take my life; if he really wanted to kill me, I wouldn’t be alive till today.”
Back then, she was still in swaddling clothes and had no resistance. If he wanted to kill her, why wait till today? However, her guard against Zhao Jiong became heavier!
He won’t harm her life, but that doesn’t mean he won’t use her; these are two different things.
“I may go to Shangrao County again soon to solve the warhorse matter as soon as possible, and then return to Gong City. Anyway, no matter what, I will definitely come to the triplet’s Hundred-Day Feast!”
Nan Tianzong was carefully explaining, his words seemed deeply concerned about Liu Sisi’s situation.
“Well, you go ahead and get busy with your things first. As for the triplet’s 100-day banquet, I will keep a seat for you. After all, you are their Uncle, you have to come no matter what.”
“Haha! Definitely, I will definitely come!”
Nan Tianzong laughed heartily, and then stood up, took a deep look at Liu Sisi, and walked away without looking back.
Sisi, rest assured!
If anyone wants to hurt you, let him step over my corpse first!
In the following few days, Nan Tianzong was nowhere to be seen. Di Yelei was extremely busy as well; he went to the Di Family and then headed straight to Shangrao County. By the time he returned, he was with Nan Tianzong.
The returning two were beaming, looking very happy.
“Sisi, it’s done!”
What they were talking about being done, naturally, meant the matter of warhorses.
“Done? So fast!”
No wonder Liu Sisi was surprised! From the time they went out to their return, only a few days had passed.
Nan Tianzong smiled contentedly: “It’s a long story, but to cut it short, Mrs. Sun of the Sun Family turns out to be the Old Madam’s niece in the main Family! Since Elder Di issued the order, the Old Madam personally accompanied us on a visit, and things were done! However, even so, for 1000 excellent warhorses, it cost 100,000 taels of silver.”
“100,000 taels? Can you two afford so much?”
Liu Sisi was also surprised. Just 1000 warhorses cost 100,000 taels of silver, and this was a family price. It seems that the warhorse was truly a valuable thing. What a good business to profit from!
However, thinking about it, aren’t the warhorses of this era equivalent to the planes and cannons of the next life? With such a thought, it is reasonable to be expensive.
“Really not much, the first time we went there, they asked for two million taels of silver.”
Di Yelei seemed quite happy as well.
“Don’t get too happy too soon. Although this crisis is over for now, from the look on the Old Madam’s face, I’m afraid you’ll be tied to the Di Family’s big ship from now on.” Nan Tianzong said as if he couldn’t stand the good times.
“Doesn’t matter, I Di Yelei won’t be forced to do something I don’t want to do by the main Family! But this 100,000 is not a small amount, where will the money come from? By the way, how is the situation over there?” Di Yelei was referring to the progress of the gold mine.
“Later, let’s go and have a look together!”
Nan Tianzong thought for a while and said, looking back at Liu Sisi, who was smiling like a spring breeze: “Sisi, I haven’t tasted the cooked dishes made by you for a long time. I really miss them. I don’t know if I have the fortune to taste them today?”
Is he driving her away?
“Brother, rest assured, the food in the kitchen has been prepared. I’ll go and urge them, and they will come later.”
Liu Sisi obediently walked out of the room and gently closed the door for the two.
Outside the door, the number of people originally following Di Yelei seemed to have doubled. Those who could enter and exit the Di Residence were all his trusted soldiers.
It seems their plot is not small!
