"Qiqi, if you make a request, Lord Su will definitely agree."

Even the Marquis of Zhongyong admired his daughter-in-law.

Let alone Cheng Qiqi who comes from the countryside, even the noble ladies in the capital would definitely choose between fame and fortune!

However, for the sake of the Jin family, Cheng Qiqi was willing to give this enormous credit to Magistrate Su.

If Cheng Qiqi is willing, then Magistrate Su will definitely praise her to the skies.

But Cheng Qiqi refused, and even told Magistrate Su to only say "Madam Cheng" and not to say anything about her identity.

"Father, instead of making a request, why not save this favor? We're prisoners in Chaosheng County, under Lord Su's jurisdiction. That way, we can ask for leniency later."

Cheng Qiqi had thought it through. Her request was nothing more than some gold and silver items. Her space was filled with the Jin family's entire fortune.

She doesn't lack these things, does she?

How long can the Crown Prince's favor last?

It's better to save it for a crucial moment; she likes to have a backup plan.

Night deepened.

Cheng Qiqi held her daughter as she slept, and Jin Sui'an asked groggily, "Mom, can't we really let Tangtang come to our house as our little sister?"

"Silly An'an, Tangtang has parents, why does she want to come to our house?"

Cheng Qiqi chuckled softly, her daughter still longing to be the older sister.

Jin Sui'an snuggled closer to Cheng Qiqi, his eyes still sleepy, and asked, "Why hasn't Daddy come to find us yet? Did he get lost?"

……

The next day, Zhuang Lizheng, Zhuang Haichao, Leng Yu, Jin Yanzhi, and Jin Lizhi went to buy glass bottles from overseas merchants!

Yesterday, the whole village held an emergency meeting. Since they absolutely had to buy this glass bottle, they decided to buy it as soon as possible!

What will they use to store the floral water next year if it happens at night?

That tiny bit of floral dew sold for seventy-five taels of silver. Next year, we'll definitely get even more floral dew.

Today is still a busy day for overseas merchants. Zhuang Lizheng and others are buying glass bottles, sandalwood incense, coarse cloth, and other similar items.

"Seven Seven".

Jimai was overjoyed to see Cheng Qiqi and ran towards her. With her blonde hair and blue eyes, she was also tall. Standing next to Cheng Qiqi, she looked much taller and bigger than Cheng Qiqi, without any hint of being petite or dependent.

Jin Lizhi and Jin Yanzhi are doing well; I saw them yesterday.

This was the first time Zhuang Lizheng and his group had been so close to see overseas girls. They had seen plenty of overseas men, but this was truly the first time they had seen overseas girls so closely.

Zhuang Haichao and Leng Yu, two unmarried men, quietly moved a little further away.

Jimai pulled Cheng Qiqi along, wanting to go play. Cheng Qiqi chatted with them on the side. When Jimai's brother Jill arrived, they basically finalized their purchase intentions, signed the contract, and then everyone went their separate ways.

With Jill's help, they had priority when buying things.

Not to mention that Zhuang Lizheng and others returned with their bags full, even Cheng Qiqi bought a lot of coarse cloth.

Cheng Qiqi also learned a lot of information from Jimai, such as that they came from the distant country of Daji, where there were all kinds of spices, pearls, sea pearls, corals, and all kinds of beautiful gems.

Glass bottles were also produced in abundance.

The country of Daji is relatively short of sugar and grain.

"Qiqi, your scent is so unique."

Suddenly, Jimai, like a puppy, leaned forward to smell Cheng Qiqi's scent. It was a faint jasmine fragrance, very pleasant, unlike the overpowering scent of ordinary cosmetics.

"This is a scented balm I made myself."

Cheng Qiqi's eyes lit up. Besides selling to the Great Xia Kingdom, could the fragrant dew also be sold to other countries?

For example, Jimmy and his group?

There's also sugar.

Cheng Qiqi was already thinking to herself, maybe if they bought this glass bottle, they could exchange it for candy?

In a few days, they will come to transport glass bottles again. We will discuss it further then.

Cheng Qiqi had made up her mind. Seeing that it was getting late, she decided to leave. But before she knew it, she ran into the arrogant Cyrus again.

"Poor wretch."

Cyrus spoke his native language, thinking about the day they left with the government officials, glanced around, and ultimately said nothing more.

"Is he insulting us?"

When Jin Yanzhi saw Cyrus and felt his gaze, he wished he could rush forward and fight him.

"Don't."

Jin Lizhi grabbed the man and said, "Second Uncle said we're not allowed to cause any trouble. We don't understand what he's saying. If you want to curse, I'll secretly curse with you?"

"..."

Jin Yanzhi muttered, "I cursed, but he couldn't hear me. So what's the point of cursing?"

Pretending not to understand was too difficult for Cheng Qiqi. She whispered, "Jin Yanzhi, is that what you're saying?"

Upon hearing this, Jin Yanzhi's eyes immediately lit up. While Jill and Cyrus were chatting, Jin Yanzhi rushed up to Jill, smiled, and said, "Jill, you absolutely must deliver the 15,000 glass bottles our village ordered from you on time!"

"no problem."

Jill nodded affirmatively. Although 5,000 of the 15,000 glass bottles were sold at half price, the remaining 10,000 were still cheaper than selling them to others!

All things considered, Jill still made a profit!

Besides, glass bottles were more than enough for the people of Daji Kingdom. Although they were fragile, they were small, and some small glass bottles could fill a basket with several hundred of them.

The number of glass bottles they brought this time is quite considerable!

"They ordered 15,000 glass bottles?"

Cyrus exclaimed, glancing again at Jin Yanzhi's patched clothes. Could they really afford Haizhu?

"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen so many people buy this much before?"

Jin Yanzhi puffed out his chest, glanced disdainfully at Cyrus, and said, "We don't even look at your Haizhu."

"..."

Cyrus wanted to curse, so he started babbling at Jill.

Jin Yanzhi was delighted this time and returned with a proud look on his face: "Sister-in-law, how did I do?"

"good."

Cheng Qiqi gave him a thumbs up. This spoiled brat really knew how to annoy people. She listened to Cyrus's babbling and cursing, which was quite vulgar, and she was so angry that she jumped up and down!

Just as Cheng Qiqi was about to leave, she suddenly noticed that in the corner, someone was selling something that wasn't selling.

"What kind of seed is this?"

Cheng Qiqi stopped in front of him. If she wasn't mistaken, this was Gao Liang, wasn't it?

In the north, sorghum is grown. How come these foreigners are selling sorghum seeds too?

"Gao, Liang~"

Liki answered, finally seeing someone ask a question. In his broken Bactrian language, he said, "Unlike your sorghum, our sorghum tastes better, and we can grow two crops a year!"

"Madam Cheng, don't listen to his nonsense. We used to grow sorghum when it came from the north. It was small, hard, and astringent, only good for feeding livestock."

Sister Fu'an stepped forward and said, "Madam Cheng, don't waste your money!"
