Chapter 821
In the evening, Guo Xiu planned to cook hot pot. Zhao Laner took away the dumplings and glutinous rice early like yesterday. She actually had a lot to ask her sister-in-law, but she knew it was not the right time. She knew that she might not be too busy cooking so many meals by herself. Come on, she told Jiuyue to come and help.Jiuyue knew that the person who came this time was of high status, so she didn't dare to go to the sister-in-law's house these two days. After hearing what the second sister-in-law said, she told Eminem to wash her hands and went.

It was a lot easier to help Guo Xiu in Jiuyue. After all the ingredients were prepared, Jiuyue left.

When several people sat together for dinner at night, Li Yao talked about the Tibetan soldiers again.The three brothers looked at each other quickly, and Cao Shi then said, "We may not be able to do what we want, and you have seen the situation in the valley. It is not a problem to feed another 2000 people, but it will be difficult if there are more."

"I also know that it is difficult for you, but it must be done for the sake of the world. Fortunately, I am not just throwing people to you and leaving them alone. You will definitely not have the food you want, but I will give priority to providing weapons and armor. For you, and Zhou Hu will not exchange food with you again, as long as the valley needs anything other than food, the imperial court will provide it."

He Hui changed his mind and laughed slightly after hearing this; "I wonder how many people His Majesty plans to hide in the mountains?"

After saying the word Your Majesty, the tone of the words became serious in an instant, and several people dropped their chopsticks one after another. The only unaffected ones were probably dumplings and glutinous rice, and the two of them ate happily as before.

"What do you think of [-]?" Li Xu looked at the three and asked solicitingly.

"Ten thousand is too much. According to our current capacity, we can accommodate at most eight thousand." He Hui thought for a while.

When Li Xu heard that he laughed eight thousand, he was already very satisfied, and the number was even two thousand more than he thought.

"Okay, eight thousand is eight thousand. After we leave here, Zhou Hu will send you 8000 people. Except for me, these 8000 people will only obey your orders. At that time, the imperial court will officially issue documents."

The three of Cao Shi stood up upon hearing this, and this time they bowed respectfully to Li Xu.

Li Xu stretched out his hand to support them and laughed loudly.

Guo Xiu looked at the happy people and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, but she had already prepared for this matter, and it was not so difficult to accept, but her life might change a lot in the future.

After talking about the business, Li Xu told them about the suffering he was currently facing.

"What the imperial court lacks is not only food but also herbs. There should be a lot of herbs in the mountains. I wonder if you can provide some."

"The matter of herbal medicine is not a problem. Your Majesty also knows that we have a big market every August [-]th. What we lack is often what the mountain people lack, so we hope that Brother Zhou can rush to the market before August. We transport a batch of items, and we can bring them back to the big market to exchange for food when the time comes."

"You can rest assured that there is no problem." Li Xu, who could agree, directly agreed.

The three of Cao and Shi knew that the opportunity was rare, and they didn't know when they would see Li Xu again, so they raised their plans, requests, and doubts in their hearts.

Guo Xiu sipped her tea and looked at the men who were talking about serious business, she pursed her lips. Why did she always say that they didn’t move their chopsticks when they were eating, and she couldn’t do it well? What's the meaning?
