Xia Mingzhong brought the list of medicinal materials purchased recently to King Ying. King Ying took a quick look at it and found that more than half of it were ordinary medicinal materials, and the other half were rare species that were not commonly seen.
"Have you visited all the medicine shops in the capital?" King Ying rubbed his temples, feeling a little tired. As Guan Jiyu's practice increased, more and more types of medicinal materials needed to be replaced in the medicine pool.
After all, "Wind-Destroying Technique" is a taboo book passed down from Hechiliu's country, and some of the medicinal materials required in it are often difficult to find.
King Ying had to worry about it.
"What about the daughter of the drug farmer? Hasn't she been delivering medicine to us?" King Ying handed the list to Xia Mingzhong and said, "Is it possible that she doesn't have it there anymore?"
Xia Mingzhong's face did not change and he said: "I have been around the capital and asked everywhere I could. Her family really only has what we need now."
King Ying said: "Isn't that okay? If she has the goods, we can just renew the order with her normally."
Xia Mingzhong shook his head and said: "She seems reluctant. People in the mansion told her about this matter yesterday, but she was hesitant. She didn't know what she was thinking about."
"Do you think the price is too low?" King Ying smiled scornfully and said, "These drug farmers, relying on the acres of land they have, are always thinking about raising the price. Those drugs are not worth much.
All of them were coaxed up by people like them."
Xia Mingzhong said: "Miss Jin Chan said that she doesn't have many of these medicines, not to mention that she is still making orders from other companies, so..."
"Then I don't care, I don't care whose order she makes, she has to make my order anyway." King Ying squinted and said, "Give her some more money and see what else she has to say.
?Mingzhong, go talk to her directly and tell her to temporarily cancel everyone's orders, and she can raise any conditions."
Xia Mingzhong responded: "Yes."
In recent days, Jin Chan has been coming to the palace to deliver medicine almost every day. Xia Mingzhong has received orders from King Ying and is waiting for Jin Chan. When she comes again, Xia Mingzhong will call her aside.
Jin Chan still had a smile on his face, his eyes were clear and sincere, and he asked: "Master Xia, why are you looking for me?"
Xia Mingzhong didn't like to talk in roundabout ways, so he got straight to the point and said: "We want Miss Jin Chan to reject all other orders and only work for our Sixth Prince's House for the time being. What do you think?"
Jin Chan seemed to have thought about this request carefully, and the smile on her face changed to another expression with unknown meaning, and she said: "I know that the order of the Prince's Palace is extraordinary, and it is an honor for me to serve for the Prince.
Wrong update @ But I also have other big orders, and the rewards will not be less, so how can Mr. Xia think that I am willing to give up all other orders? "
Xia Mingzhong took out a heavy bag of silver directly from his arms. He put it in Jin Chan's hand and said: "This is just a deposit to pay you first. Don't worry, girl. Since we have made this request, we will not let the girl
If you lose money, we will absolutely guarantee that you will make a profit without losing money.”
Jin Chan weighed the money bag in his hand and said: "There are many customers who take medicine from me, and some of them are from wealthy families in Beijing. The capital is not big or small, so if you meet them, they will
I can’t answer the question."
Xia Mingzhong didn't think this was a good excuse and simply continued: "If it is convenient, Miss Jin Chan might as well live in the palace. If we need anything, we can communicate directly and save a lot of unnecessary trouble. We don't
It will take up too much of your time, girl, what do you think?"
Jin Chan's thin eyebrows frowned slightly, half-consciously: "This method is good, I just wonder if it will be too troublesome..."
Xia Mingzhong said decisively: "As long as Miss Jin Chan doesn't find it troublesome, we naturally won't find it troublesome."
Jin Chan hesitated and said: "Then I'll think about it again..."
Xia Mingzhong said: "There is no need to think too much. Miss Jin Chan is a businessman. As long as she does not harm Jin Chan's business interests, she will not suffer a loss. And for our prince, at this time, we need Miss Jin Chan's help."
, this is a mutually beneficial cooperation, I can’t think of anything else that the girl should hesitate about? Why not give an answer on this?”
Jin Chan covered her mouth shyly and smiled, and said: "Since Mr. Xia has come to tell you in person, Jin Chan just agrees."

Chapter 139 New Clothes
Xia Mingzhong's eyebrows seemed to relax a little. He nodded, then returned to his original indifferent expression, and left with the nullah knife in hand.
Jin Chan stayed in place, she kept looking at Xia Mingzhong's back. From the moment Xia Mingzhong turned his back to her and left, a complicated smile began to appear on her face.
There was admiration in that shallow smile. This Sixth Prince's confidant, the number one swordsman in Xuli, would also stand in front of her and bargain with her. These so-called big shots would also have ordinary people like her.
When the people were discussing terms, thinking of this, the corners of Jin Chan's mouth slightly raised, and the joy on his face could hardly be concealed.
There are servants walking around in the palace from time to time. Even if they are servants in the palace, most of the clothes they wear are of good quality. Jin Chan knows the quality of these fabrics and has seen them many times in the palace.
, I can only feel more emotional about the royal family
The luxury and luxury of her son. She lowered her head and looked at her clothes. For a moment, the joy on her face disappeared. Although no one noticed her, she stood under the tree and looked at her cheap clothes.
Clothes, I couldn't help but frown.
"It seems to be very poor, not even as good as a servant."
Jin Chan heard that there was self-deprecation and reluctance in her own voice. She was still holding a bag of money given by Xia Mingzhong in her hand. The heavy weight gave her an idea - to spend it.
From the time Jin Chan came up with this idea to the time she decided to implement it, she didn't have much time to hesitate. She strode out of the palace, took the big bag of money that originally belonged to her, and went straight to the largest clothing store in the capital.
After stepping into the clothing store, Jin Chan found that there were not many customers in the huge store. The shop owner noticed her walking in at a glance, which made Jin Chan slightly uneasy, but the bulging money bag seemed
It gave her great courage, she straightened the broken hair in front of her forehead, and moved her eyes from her toes to the pieces of ready-made clothes hanging in the store.
"Girl, what style do you want to see?" The store owner greeted enthusiastically: "A batch of new styles just arrived in the store, please take a look."
Jin Chan's eyes kept lingering on the various clothes in the store. After looking at a few pieces, she frowned and shook her head, saying, "These looks are not new enough."
The store owner was surprised and said: "How can it not be new enough?! Girl, if you don't believe me, go to any other store and see if any of them have the styles and new materials I have here." Seeing that Jin Chan still looked unbelieving, the store owner
The boss said again: "I can guarantee that there will never be any store that can add new products faster than mine!" qo
Jin Chan slowly turned her attention to the store owner. She folded her hands in front of her and said with a slight smile: "That's not what I meant. Who in the capital doesn't know that you are the best here? If you hadn't recognized it,
I won’t come here anymore because of your time-honored brand.”
"Girl, have you ever been to my store?" After that, the store owner looked at Jin Chan again. Jin Chan felt a little unnaturally guilty and replied, "I used to come here often, but not so much in the past two years."
I live in the capital, so I haven’t been here for a long time, so it’s normal that you don’t remember me.”
Jin Chan turned around, pointed at the clothes hanging on the wall, and said, "Take this, this, and that one down for me to try on."
The store owner didn't ask anyone else to help Jin Chan try on the clothes. As soon as he heard that she used to come here often, he happily accompanied Jin Chan to try on one set after another. Finally, under Jin Chan's picky and reluctant expression, he
Transaction completed.
Jin Chan's originally bulging money bag suddenly shrank a lot. She didn't care at all, her hands were full of "trophies" that she had been working on for a long time.
She only purchased new clothes, which was naturally not enough for her.
Jin Chan went straight to the jewelry store and tried on several sets of jewelry accompanied by the jewelry owner. She didn't know much about these things and couldn't tell the quality of the items. There was no one around to help Jin Chan.
Almost due to the store owner's recommendation and deception, I purchased two more pairs of jewelry hastily.
For no other reason, she also liked the big beads inlaid on the jewelry. Jin Chan walked out of the jewelry store and put the newly bought jewelry on her head. She had never been so happy for a long time.
She walked proudly along the way, and every pedestrian on the road seemed to be looking at her. She contentedly accepted every look directed at her, enjoying the envy in their eyes.
Jin Chan heard the woman she sighed at the roadside, although the woman's voice.
Chapter 139 New Clothes
It wasn't big, but she could hear clearly: "Is this the wife of a high-ranking official in Beijing?"
Jin Chan unconsciously reached out and stroked the hair accessory on her head, feeling even more pleased with herself. Although the old clothes she had changed into were well wrapped, Jin Chan knew in her heart that no matter how gorgeous the packaging was, it would change.
Despite its inherent roughness.
She couldn't wait to find an alley with fewer people, and discarded the old clothes she was holding there.
"I hope I will never need you again." She had no expression on her face, but also revealed a hint of disgust. After throwing away the package of old clothes, Jin Chan looked around again to make sure that no one had noticed her, and she finally trotted relaxedly.
and leave.
Jin Chan's footsteps were very brisk, and the large and small bags she was carrying did not affect her pace. As she walked, she hummed a song:
"Little doll, shabby clothes.
No one cares and cries.
I want to see the big brother next door, and my childhood sweetheart rides around the bed on a bamboo horse.
Poor little baby, brother can't see the little baby.
I wonder if it’s because the doll is dirty or because the clothes are dirty?
If I have new clothes in the coming year, will a man come and ride a bamboo horse?
In the coming year, I will wear new clothes, wear new ones and throw away old ones.
Pretty new clothes and beautiful red makeup.
My eldest brother never looked away from me.
Big brother looks at me and doesn’t want to leave..."
Jin Chan sang with a smile. She could sing this ballad when she was very young. Before, she only felt it was bitter and the lyrics of the ballad were pitifully written.
Now that she sings again, she only feels happy in her heart.
This ballad is about her, and it was written specifically for her!
"Pretty new clothes, beautiful red makeup.
Big brother looks at me with eyes that never leave.
Big brother looks at me and doesn’t want to leave..."
Jin Chan sang all the way. She had sung this ballad countless times. The more she sang, the more enthusiastic she became, and she didn't feel tired at all. It wasn't until she returned to the gate of the Sixth Prince's Mansion that she stopped singing, straightened her clothes, and calmly
