Chapter 468 - 468: Apologize (2)
“That’s very detailed.” Lin Xiaoyue praised Head Fang.
Head Fang smiled and bowed to Lin Xiaoyue.
“Those of us who are not at the border, besides doing business to earn money, we also have to often inquire about information.”
“The Liu family is just an ordinary merchant family. It’s not difficult to investigate them.”
Lin Xiaoyue nodded in satisfaction.
“Alright, let’s leave this matter at that.”
How did the arrangements go for the ten soldiers who came back yesterday?” Lin Xiaoyue quickly changed the topic.
“According to your instructions, we have already arranged for them to go to the Zhou Manor to work.” Head Fang immediately said.
“Hmm.”
“Where’s the blacksmith?” Lin Xiaoyue asked again.
Although she had a manor and more manpower, farming tools were a big problem.
The management of ironware in this era was strict. It was easy to be targeted if they purchased ironware in large quantities.
Prince Anyang had no way to resolve this, so she had to think of a way herself.
Of course, it was not that Prince Anyang could not help, but that he was unwilling to take the risk.
Moreover, if he could really get his hands on iron, Prince Anyang would definitely use it to forge his own weapons. It was unlikely that he would give the iron to her.
As a result, she could only buy a small number of farm tools and forge them herself.
Fortunately, when the Nangong Army retreated to Hanshan Town, she took all the armor and weapons.
She could melt and forge them into farming tools.
As for weapons of the Nangong Army, Prince Anyang would help with that.
“Among the soldiers who have returned so far, only two of them know how to smith. However, there are quite a few in the army who have such skills. If we wait for a few more days, we will have enough people.” Head Fang said.
“Alright. Then, arrange for those two to start work in the Zhou Manor first. Tomorrow, I will arrange for someone to send the iron to Zhou Manor.”
“Yes!”
Lin Xiaoyue told Head Fang some things, and then asked him to take her to see the manors she received.
With Head Fang and the elite team of the Nangong Army following her, Lin Xiaoyue’s trip was very grand.
When the heads of the manor saw Lin Xiaoyue, they were in awe and afraid.
Lin Xiaoyue followed the previous practice and let the heads bring her around the manor. Then, she gave her suggestions for improvements.
As the sweet potatoes and potatoes in her interspatial ring were limited, it was infeasible for her to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes in every manor.
Therefore, some manors were to grow chili peppers and cabbages. At the same time, they temporarily did not engage in farming.
In short, Lin Xiaoyue got busy again.
Meanwhile, Li Xiao, who was talking to Hei Gang at the dock, suddenly received a notice that someone had come to ask for an audience.
When he found out that the person who came was the eldest young master of the Liu family, Li Xiao frowned.
He hadn’t had the time to settle the score with him, but he actually came to him.
“Let them in.” Hei Gang glanced at Li Xiao and said with a smile.
Li Xiao glanced at Hei Gang and didn’t say anything.
After a while, Liu Bowen came with a servant.
When he saw the two burly men sitting at the table, his already nervous heart became even more nervous, and he looked terrified.
After the servant gave him a warning look, Liu Bowen gathered his courage and bowed to Li Xiao and Hei Gang.
“Greetings, Chief Hei, Chief Li.” His voice was unsteady.
“Greetings, Chief Hei, Chief Li.” The servant followed behind Liu Bowen and said. Although his voice wasn’t loud, it was much steadier than Liu Bowen’s.
It attracted the attention of Li Xiao and Hei Gang.
“Yes.” Hei Gang replied casually.
He picked up a spicy skewer and put it in his mouth.
Li Xiao glanced at Hei Gang and frowned.
He was the one who bought it, but he didn’t say he was treating him, right?
Hei Gang gave Li Xiao a look.
They were brothers, so it didn’t matter who bought it.
He would treat him next time!
Li Xiao:”…”
Liu Bowen didn’t notice their interaction. When he saw Li Xiao, he was so scared that he didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.
When the servant saw this, he could not help but sigh in his heart.
He took a step forward and once again cupped his fists at Hei Gang and Li Xiao.
“Chief Hei, Chief Li, the First Young Master is here to apologize for what happened the day before yesterday.”
As soon as he said this, he finally attracted Li Xiao and Hei Gang’s attention.
“Hehe, apologize?” Hei Gang smiled at the two of them.
“Since it happened the day before yesterday, why didn’t you come the day before yesterday or yesterday?” When he said this, Hei Gang’s voice suddenly turned cold, causing people to tremble in fear..
