Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote

Chapter 111 Sugar Baby Soft
When arriving at the capital after an 800-mile rush, Xia Lin had almost arrived outside Yanmen Pass. Several months had passed in this miserable place, and what Xia Lin wanted to do now was not to eat and drink to his heart's content nor to think about sex, he just wanted to take a good bath.

This was his biggest demand. During the past few months, he had the conditions to take a bath only when he was in the royal court. The rest of the time, he would rub his body like the herdsmen. Sometimes, if it snowed, he would rub it with snow, and if there was no snow, he would just rub it raw. Oh... that feeling was really too tiring. The smell of sheep began to waft out of his crotch. He felt like a newly-adult ram in heat.

When he got closer to Yanmen Pass, he could see from a distance that there was a group of people waiting outside the pass. He knew there must be a welcoming party, but he was really very tired. Seeing so many people standing there made his head buzz.

Sure enough, when he got off the car, as expected, he was greeted by a grand welcome ceremony, with huge crowds of people, loud drums and gongs, and Yanmen Pass inside and outside decorated with lights and colors as if it were New Year's Day.

Whether it was the soldiers or the common people, everyone was in high spirits.

It is also true that it is rare for a year to come to an end without a war. Who in the world is most reluctant to fight? Of course, it is the soldiers guarding the border. Even ants try to survive, let alone living people. And the people on the border naturally do not want to see the war. Who would not want an environment where they can live and work in peace?

But none of this happened this year. There was no river of blood as usual, and no one disturbed the joy of the New Year here. Those who have not experienced border wars find it difficult to imagine how important peace and tranquility are to life, so the people here are truly grateful to Xia Lin from the bottom of their hearts.

At the end, they even lifted Xia Lin up, as a traditional victory show, and threw him up. But who knew that when they threw him up, a bunch of things would fall from his body with a clanging sound, including gemstones, gold knives, small gold bars, large gold nuggets, and all kinds of valuable gemstones...

The scene became awkward immediately. Everyone silently put Xia Lin down. He immediately squatted down and started to pick it up, mumbling, "It's okay now, everyone is embarrassed."

He put his things back in place and stuffed them back into his clothes. He coughed and then bowed to Guo Ying and said, "General Guo, I have fulfilled your mission, but I beg you to allow me to rest for a while."

Guo Ying coughed a few times when he saw him carrying so many bags and waved his hands: "Go ahead, you must have had a hard time on this journey."

Xia Lin thanked him quickly, and then he was escorted all the way to where he was staying, amidst the cheers of the officers and soldiers and the people around him. He took a nice bath, changed his clothes, and finally had the normal meal he had been dreaming about for several months. Finally, he could lie in bed and relax.

But at this moment, his door was knocked, and Miss Tang's voice came from outside: "Daosheng, are you asleep?"

"Not asleep, not asleep." He quickly got out of bed and opened the door: "Tang Baoer, come here quickly, I brought you something good."

He had just come out of the quilt wearing only a single layer of clothing, and was still steaming from his body. Miss Tang hurriedly pushed him, "Go back to bed quickly, or you'll catch a cold."

"My strong young man won't catch a cold so easily."

Xia Lin pulled Miss Tang to the bedside, then he climbed onto the bed with his butt sticking out, and took out a small bag. Inside was an emerald as big as a small egg: "This!"

There is no girl in the world who doesn't like gems, even a woman as knowledgeable and wealthy as Miss Tang. She has seen emeralds before, but this is the first time she has seen a gem that is so large, so regular and so clear.

"I tell you, I secretly picked it off the old Chanyu's dragon throne. No one knew about it, and they thought it was taken away by the previous Chanyu." Xia Lin laughed, his face full of pride.

Miss Tang took it in her hand and looked at it carefully. She liked it from the bottom of her heart, but this thing was really too valuable. The first thing most people would think of was to present it to the emperor or other high-ranking officials in exchange for more benefits.

So even though she liked it, she could only play with it for a while before handing it back to Xia Lin: "It's a really good thing. Take it to present to His Majesty, and maybe you'll get more rewards."

"Your Majesty? What can I give to Your Majesty? This is for you." Xia Lin stuffed the emerald into Miss Tang's hand and said, "You like to wear green clothes, and this suits you very well. When the time comes, you can find a goldsmith to make an inlaid cover and hang it around your neck. It will be so beautiful."

"No, no." Miss Tang handed the emerald back in a panic, "This is too valuable. You don't know about gems of this quality. There are only a few in the whole Wei Dynasty, and green ones are absolutely unique. How can such a unique thing be in the hands of a businessman like me?"

"Stop talking nonsense." Xia Lin opened Miss Tang's collar with one finger and put the gem in.

He was just trying to find an inner pocket, but after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find one. Instead, he touched something he shouldn't have touched. Miss Tang looked at him with squinted eyes: "Have you touched enough?"

"no!"

Xia Lin suddenly pulled Xiao Tang to her side, turned over and pressed her under him. As their eyes met, Miss Tang just stretched out her hand and pushed Xia Lin's shoulder symbolically, without even shouting.

Why didn’t he shout? Because there was someone next door, and if he shouted, someone would come to help.

Tangbao has a plump body and delicate skin. When touched, she looks like a small river shrimp that has been blanched in water, a large pink patch.

"Tang Bao, did you miss me?" Xia Lin leaned over to Miss Tang's neck and kissed her: "I almost didn't make it back." "No." Miss Tang turned her head away: "Let me go, or I'll call for help."

"Who are you going to call?"

"I don't know..." Tang Bao muttered in a low voice: "But I have to shout, otherwise it will seem cheap."

Xia Lin laughed when he heard this: "Then you will be unable to shout."

Three years later, the boy who was lying on the grass of the ox cart and looking up at the sky finally kissed the goddess he fell in love with at first sight. At first, Tang Baoer still resisted, but after a few ineffective resistances, she didn't resist much.

In this era, the overall customs of the people are still very open, without so many messy constraints. In addition, unless there are special circumstances, they have basically been together in the past few years, from Xinping Township to Fuliang County and then to Yanmen Pass. Basically, as long as one party takes the initiative, even a little bit, things will come to fruition.

The kiss was going fine, but Miss Tang suddenly shrank back. She looked up at Xia Lin and said, "Are you really going to marry a merchant's daughter? What about your little princess?"

Xia Lin exclaimed: "No, you are still asking me this question at this time? I don't care at all."

"What do you not care about? Are you not caring about being a princess or being a businessman? Or are you not caring about either?"

At this time, Xia Lin suddenly rang the song of IQ evolution in his mind. These three questions quickly formed a ladder formula in his brain. If he didn't care about the princess, he was heartless and forgot his principles for the sake of beauty. If he didn't care about his identity as a businessman, he still cared about the princess and had impure intentions. If he didn't care about either of them, it meant that he had no ambition and was greedy for pleasure.

Omg!

Xia Lin sat up again, but Xiao Tang was still lying there. The two looked at each other, and Xia Lin said, "You asked me a very difficult question."

"What's so difficult about it?"

"Well, it's difficult."

Miss Tang then slowly stood up and returned the emerald to Xia Lin again: "I have been traveling around the world since I was sixteen, and I tend to think about some things in the long term. Give it to me after you have made up your mind."

She sat up and straightened her clothes, then took the initiative to lean forward and kiss Xia Lin: "Your Tang Bao'er just doesn't want you to delay your career for a woman. I'm still waiting for your fifth-rank county magistrate."

In fact, Xia Lin's anger had been suppressed by this point, and then the two of them settled accounts on the bed... the total account of the goods brought from the grassland.

You wouldn't know until you calculate the accounts. Once you do, you'll be shocked. The war profits are really easy to make. The profits in just a few months are as much as the Tang family's gross income for two full years.

And this is just the beginning. If there are no unexpected events, once the trade is opened, materials between the Central Plains and the grasslands will flood in. Then, as the number one logistics company in Wei, the Tang family will truly take off.

"Logistics accounts for about 26% of the cost, almost 30%. In the future, even if we only conquer this share, it will be incredible, not to mention that we also have goods."

Xia Lin took out an abacus and started calculating. The entire logistics cost less than 30% of the cost, which is 26%. This is the average value. This is a huge market.

"Well, but is there really only one market place, Yanmen Pass?" Tang Baoer pursed her lips in silence for a moment, then shook her head: "That's definitely impossible."

"Of course not. You can imagine that the court will not allow the Guo family to take such a large share. They will definitely use various excuses to expand the market size along the Great Wall Pass. I think there will be at least five or six."

Tang Bao nodded: "If that's the case, there are only three caravans in the world that can span the north and south. One is the Gao family in Jiangnan, one is the Zhou family in Huaibei, and the other is our family."

"The world will be divided into three parts, right?" Xia Lin touched his chin. "The Gao family will definitely dominate the industry. That is Prime Minister Gao's industry, but..."

"But what?"

"But even they have to spend money to use our technology!" Xia Lin chuckled, "Without canning technology, shock-absorbing technology, and marine technology, how can they compete with us?"
