As soon as I opened my eyes, I was dressed as a stepmother of two bear children

Chapter 189 Mutual Market
Everything was silent, the candlelight trembled slightly, and the figure of the man lying on the desk was drawn long by the moonlight, with a straight posture and a focused expression.

For the production of autumn leaf pears, he will stay by his side every day, without caring about other things. The resources of Mozhou City are being developed little by little, and the smoothest iron ore is also being mined properly.

The people in Mozhou City are full of enthusiasm and longing for the future. Perhaps they can really create a better living environment with their own hands in this strange and familiar land, and even return to their homeland one day and get back everything they own. .

"Master! Gu Jingyao!" Han Xiujin said loudly.

When there is no one around, he is used to calling out his first and last name. Whether it is General Gu or His Royal Highness Luo Shizi, it is more like a name of restraint or humiliation to them. They survive.

Gu Jingyao frowned, and the ink from the tip of the pen dripped on the white rice paper, forming a circle.

He thought he was hallucinating, until the man opened the door while talking.

"I am back!"

The man was a bit dusty, but he had a smile on his face. Fortunately, he did not disgrace his life, and he brought back the exchange documents.

"How's it going, are you injured?" Gu Jingyao was always not good at words, he got up and asked with a frown as he looked at his brother, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, who seemed to have lost weight.

"No, no, I haven't congratulated you yet. I heard that my wife has given birth?" Han Xiujin waved his hands carelessly. After he was saved by Gu Jingyao by mistake since he was a child, he vowed to follow him without hesitation no matter what he did in the future. All of his own will.

Mentioning Li'er and the child, Gu Jingyao's heart suddenly softened, and his expression relaxed, "Well, he's a brat."

Seeing his awkward expression that was deliberately suppressed but couldn't help but want to show off, he clicked his tongue twice, "Okay, please respect me as a loner, you don't know, this King Ni Jia really has 180 eyes, really Not easy to deal with."

Han Xiujin waved his hand, sat down carelessly and poured a cup of tea, couldn't help cursing, then remembered something, lowered his voice, looked at him apologetically and muttered, "Xiao Xiao was detained in Ni Jiaguo, I couldn't bring her back with me"

Gu Jingyao frowned, apparently mentally prepared for this result, and said silently, "Ni Jiaguo agreed to the mutual market, and even if he thinks about it, he doesn't want to be our enemy. Xiaoxiao should not be in danger for the time being."

"Well, King Ni Jia only said to ask Xiao Xiao to treat him, but don't tell Madam about this matter, she is weak after giving birth, and if she gets hit and hurts her body, it will be bad. At worst, I will take someone to treat her. Take it back, Xiaoxiao!" Han Xiujin nodded, feeling really sorry in his heart, before he left he swore to bring him back safe and sound, but now he is nowhere to be seen.

Gu Jingyao glanced at him coolly, "Li'er already knew about it, and even gave birth prematurely because of it."

Although three or four days in advance is not considered a premature birth, but the account is to be counted on the head of that Ni Jiaguo, Gu Jingyao clenched his fists as he spoke, his voice was cold, fortunately, Lier mother and child are safe, otherwise he will destroy it at any cost Ni Jiaguo.

Han Xiujin opened his mouth exaggeratedly, and said angrily, "This King Ni Jia acted despicably and shamelessly. We saved their people, but he is so brazen!"

Gu Jingyao calmed down very quickly, this is not the time to be brave, if you want to develop a powerful Mozhou power without sensuality, you must go to the country of Ni Jia.

"Where's the stuff?" Gu Jingyao looked at him and said.

"Oh." Han Xiujin took out the booklet from his pocket, "This is the exchange document. Xiaoxiao knows the importance of this document, so she voluntarily keeps it there."

Seeing his downcast and remorseful expression, Gu Jingyao's eyes flickered, and then he said, "Xiaoxiao will be fine."

"Yes." Han Xiu nodded firmly.

Gu Jingyao withdrew his gaze, opened the booklet and looked at the seal on it, thoughtfully.

"My lord, maybe we can also seek Xianbei's help. It doesn't have to be the Nijia country, right?" Han Xiujin frowned. Iron ore is a resource that can never be too much for any country, and Xianbei should be willing to trade with them , although the distance is farther, but Gu Jingyao has a special status, and Xianbei has never refused or done anything secretly.

Gu Jingyao pursed his lips and shook his head, "Although Xianbei is a big country, we will eventually return to Li Country. It is already the best result not to interfere with Xianbei's well water, and the relationship should not be too close."

Han Xiujin nodded silently, but he secretly slandered in his heart, not to be too secretive, but he became Xianbei's King Ling.

Han Xiujin couldn't figure it out, so he simply ignored it. He had already sent the documents for the mutual market, and it was time to arrange the matters related to the mutual market.

Gu Jingyao handed over the paper, "On it are the things to trade with Ni Jiaguo and what you need. Tomorrow, you will choose the people and horses, and trade as soon as possible."

Han Xiujin nodded and looked at the listed items, most of which were needed in daily life, such as livestock, cattle and horses, silkworm seeds, and herbal cloth.

"Five hundred stones of iron ore?" He shouted in surprise, are you crazy, just these beef, mutton and vegetable seeds should be exchanged for five hundred stones of iron ore?They won't dig through the veins, will they?

"En." Gu Jingyao nodded, soldiers and horses are the foundation of a country, and five hundred stones of iron ore are worth it.

"Okay, I'll choose people myself tomorrow." Han Xiujin pursed his lips. He is the master, and since he ordered it, he'll just do it, but he feels sorry for those mineral veins
"I checked it when you were away, and besides the ore veins next to the spring in the back mountain, there are also large iron ore veins in the back mountain."

Gu Jingyao spoke in a neutral manner, as if discussing the weather.

"Really?" Han Xiujin opened his eyes wide, and his empty heart was instantly filled, and the five hundred stones of iron ore didn't feel too distressed. This is really a blessed place, thanks to his wife's insightful eyes.

Gu Jingyao didn't even bother to answer, obviously, he had no reason to lie to him.

The next day, Gu Jingyao convened everyone to talk about the exchange with Ni Jiaguo. Everyone was mixed, fearing that they came for iron ore, but now Mo Hanguo has grown rapidly, and under the leadership of Gu Jingyao, it is no longer as original. Horde-like backwardness is vulnerable.

Gu Jingyao ordered people to mine iron ore while building the city wall. The high barrier firmly guarded the people in the city.

A long moat was dug outside the city gate to drain the river not far away, which is vast and peaceful.

The originally barren land is getting wider and better.

When the school was over, Luo Xuan'er went to Gu's house, not even caring about her brother's protest. She knew that Qiu Yeli must be comforted at this time, but she didn't find out yesterday, but she belatedly discovered that Han Xiujin seemed to be coming back alone. Tiny was not seen.
