Chapter 238: The World Was Truly Crazy

“The world is so big. Anything is possible.”

As Su Ying spoke, she got some people to bring the boxes of medicine in. “Same rules, same price.”

Xu San went up to check that batch of medicine.

After a round of examination, he confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the medicine. However, he was still curious about how Su Ying had become the Empress of Sky Alpha City.

Nonetheless, he was not stupid. He would never carelessly ask any questions that he should not ask.

“There’s no problem with the medicine. I’ve already prepared the silver.”

Xu San called out to someone outside the hall. Before long, some men carried a chest and walked in.

Xu San went forward and opened the chest. It was filled with s.h.i.+mmering gold ingots.

“This is the money for the goods this time. Please check, Your Majesty.”

Su Ying glanced at the Green Guardian. “Little Green, go and count the money.”

The Green Guardian was speechless. He seemed to be a little dissatisfied with this label but did not dare to say anything, so he simply walked forward to count the gold.

After confirming that there was no problem with the amount of gold, he stood up and nodded at Su Ying. “Your Majesty, there is no problem with the amount.”

“Very good.” Su Ying took out a list from her pocket and had the Green Guardian pa.s.s it to Xu San. “When you come back next month, help me bring these things over. The money will be deducted from the medicine, and I’ll give you some more medicine.”

Xu San took the list from her hands with a puzzled look. He thought that Su Ying wanted something special, but it turned out to be some daily items like cooking condiments and foodstuff.

“Are you able to bring them in?”

Who was Xu San? He was the most business-savvy trader in the capital of the Chu State, so he naturally wouldn’t miss this opportunity to bargain for a good price.

“Your Majesty, you may not be aware. It’s bad enough that it’s a long way from the outside, but…”

“Just tell me whether you can or not, that’s all.”

Su Ying interrupted him casually. That guy’s shrewd eyes were almost filled with scheming. How could she not know what he was thinking?

Xu San paused. He could see Su Ying’s personality and decided to change his strategy. “I can.”

“If you can, bring it. I’ll give you a fair price.”

Since he was in someone else’s territory, no matter how smart Xu San was, he wouldn’t dare to play any tricks. “Then I’ll take my leave.”

“Little Green, send the guest out.”

The Green Guardian led Xu San out of the city.

“Green Guardian, please wait.”

Green Guardian turned around with a baffled look.

Xu San said with a laugh, “I didn’t expect the Empress to change in just a month.”

The Green Guardian murmured a reply. “Yes.”

“Er… the previous Empress…”

“She’s dead,” the Green Guardian said without any emotion.

Xu San was dumbstruck. She was dead? He had seen how powerful that crazy woman was. She died just like that?

Now that Su Ying was sitting in that position, did that mean that she was the one who killed that crazy woman?

Xu San shook his head in astonishment. This world was truly crazy.

Previously, when Su Ying brought that tiger skin to the p.a.w.nshop, he had found her very familiar. Only after the incident did he realize that she was actually the princess consort who was the laughingstock of everyone in the whole capital. And now, this princess consort had actually become the ruler of the northern wilderness?

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, Xu San wouldn’t have believed it.

He wondered if Xiao Jue would regret it if he found out that Su Ying was so powerful.

Xu San shook his head again. Forget it. Anyway, this matter had nothing to do with him. Earning money was the only way to go.

Xu San slowly walked away with his men.

As soon as Xu San left the palace, Su Ying ordered the gray-robed man with the strongest tracking ability to secretly follow him.

The time they had spent in the northern wilderness was still too short. This mysterious land was still full of the unknown to them. She wanted to know where Xu San came from and whether he took the same path as the one she was familiar with.

“Carry all this gold to my inner chamber.”

“Yes, City Lord.”

After the gold was carried away, Su Ying stood up and left the palace. In the blink of an eye, she was outside the medicine-production warehouse.

Over the past few days, the Orange Guardian had already begun to teach the orange-robed men that Wei Ji had previously nurtured. After the lessons, it would not be long before they could be put to work in the medicine-production warehouse to make medicine.

Su Ying arrived at the medicine-production warehouse and found the orange-robed man who was temporarily in charge of this area.

“Greetings, City Lord.”

Su Ying told him to rise and handed him the booklet in her hand. “Take a look. Can you guys make the medicines in here?”

The orange-robed man took the booklet and looked through it diligently. It was filled with medicines that they had never made before, but Su Ying had written down in detail the production method and the dosage of the herbs. It was not difficult for them to make them, but the difficulty lay in the fact that they did not even have some of the raw material herbs, so they could not make them even if they wanted to.

“City Lord, these few medicinal herbs can be made, but the others can’t.”

Su Ying understood what he meant. They didn’t have the raw materials.

“Where did you guys buy the raw materials from in the past?”

“It was the Guardian who brought people to buy them.”

“Where did he buy it?”

“From the tribes.”

Su Ying nodded and gestured for him to go back to his work first. After that, she went to the resting room and waited for the Orange Guardian to come back.

Only when the sun was about to set did the Orange Guardian return to the medicine-production warehouse. When he heard that Su Ying was waiting for him, he rushed over hurriedly and almost tripped when he reached the entrance.

“It’s my fault for making City Lord wait for so long.”

Su Ying saw that he was still panting and asked him to get up and take a breather. “What’s the rush? You were teaching. There’s no harm in waiting for a while.”

The Orange Guardian lowered his head and tried his best to breathe softly. He did not dare to let Su Ying hear his breathing.

Although Su Ying appeared more affable after they had spent half a month together, their fear of the ruler had already penetrated deep into their bones, and they didn’t dare to make her unhappy in the slightest.

“Your slave came late. Please forgive me, City Lord.”

Su Ying looked at the cold sweat that had broken out on his forehead due to fright and sighed helplessly. “I am not blaming you. 1 just want to understand something from you.”

“If City Lord wants to know anything, feel free to ask your slave.”

“Were you the one who bought all the herbs in the medicine-production warehouse?”

“City Lord, I bought them.”

“Where did you buy them? How often do you go?”

“From the tribes behind the city. We go once every two months in spring, summer, and autumn, but not in winter.”

To think there were still tribes behind Sky Alpha City. “Where do they get their herbs from?”

“They go to the mountains to pick themselves or they plant them.”

“Those tribes are also in the northern wilderness?”

“No. They’re tribes from the border of the Nan State. They do not belong in the northern wilderness.”

“If we leave from the back of the city, we can go straight to the border of the Nan State?”

“Yes. There is a road to get there.”

Su Ying tapped her fingertips on the table. “I understand. You can go do your own thing.”

The Orange Guardian was very shocked to see Su Ying letting him off so easily.

Su Ying didn’t say anything else and stood up to leave.

She felt that it was necessary for her to go out and take a look.

She sat on the tiger’s back and heard the deafening chants when she pa.s.sed by the training ground. Even in the freezing weather of snow and ice, Xiao Jin still persisted in training them every day.

She patted the tiger’s head and made it stop..
