Looking After a Battle God With Hundreds of Billions in Supplies

When Su Ying arrived at Huying, Huwei and the others had already prepared all the chariots and horses, because all the chariots were loaded with charcoal, so they could only ride horses.

Su Ying looked at Hu Wei, who was on his horse, "Have you recovered from your injuries?"

Hu Wei smiled proudly and said: "It's been so long, it's better soon, Madam Su, don't worry, my fist is very hard now."

Su Ying was very angry when he heard his words, her internal injuries should be almost healed.

"Let's set off while it's still early." Su Ying said as she got on her horse.

"Brother, I'll go with you." Qiao Yang also ran over on his horse.

Huwei glared at him, "You stay on guard in the camp. If anything goes wrong in the camp when I come back, I'll be the only one to ask you."

Qiao Yang's expression was mournful, and he looked at Su Ying sadly, but Su Ying had already run to the front with his horse.

Qiao Yang could only wave his hands at them, "You must come back early."

The place where the Tiger Camp is located is not far from the exit of the Northern Wilderness. If they travel fast, they should be able to reach the Chu State's pass in the afternoon.

Hu Wei rode his horse and walked in front of the team, while Su Ying followed at the end of the team. After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally left the Northern Wilderness.

Outside the Northern Wilderness, everything is barren as far as the eye can see, as if the door separated the two worlds.

Su Ying looked around, this was the first time she left the Northern Wilderness after entering.

After walking out, Su Ying could feel the wind and sand blowing hard on her face, it may be that the Northern Wilderness is surrounded by mountains, blocking the north wind and weakening it.

At noon, they finally saw the border gate of Chu State.

"Stop the team at the side, and I'll go to the gate to see if anyone has come." Huwei explained to the people around him, and ran towards the gate as soon as he clamped his horse belly.

Su Ying asked them to pull the car to an inconspicuous place and stop. She saw from a distance that there were not many people waiting to do business outside the Chu State Pass. She asked the guards to watch over the goods, and she drove her horse towards those who were outside the pass. The vendors who set up the mobile stalls walked over.

"Pancakes, freshly made pancakes, just two copper coins will fill you up."

"Rouge, beautiful rouge, little lady, do you want to bring some rouge back? My rouge is famously good. I don't know how many people in the pass came out just to buy a box of rouge from me."

Su Ying looked at the rouge box in the vendor's hand, shook her head and continued walking.

The mobile stalls are very long, and many people have pulled carts to sell goods. Not to mention, there are quite a few people selling things here. It can't be said that everything is available, but some daily necessities can still be bought.

Su Ying walked to the front and found someone selling charcoal. She went to the booth and asked, "How do you sell this charcoal?"

Seeing someone asking, the peddler hurriedly greeted warmly, "My lady wants to buy charcoal, and this bundle costs one hundred copper plates. If you want more, I can make it cheaper."

Su Ying saw that his charcoal was also in the shape of a cylinder, but the volume was smaller, and the color of the charcoal was not so good, "I'll take a look."

Going further, she met two more charcoal sellers. The price she inquired about was similar to the first one, and the ones with better quality would be more expensive.

Su Ying turned around and left the hawker stall, and saw Huwei walking towards the queue with a middle-aged man.

"We burned a lot of charcoal a few days ago, see if you can take it." Hu Wei said to the middle-aged man.

The man walked to the side of the car to check the quality of the charcoal, and after looking at several sticks, there was no change in his expression, making it hard to figure out what he was thinking.

After reading it, the man took out a sweat towel and wiped his hands, "This charcoal is not good."

Huwei frowned, "Isn't that fine?"

The man said kindly, "Rich people want high-quality silver silk charcoal, you can't sell it at a price, but I also know your situation, it is not easy to come out, how about this, I will give you the charcoal Half a penny a cart, if you are willing to sell it, I will take it all."

Half a penny a cart, how dare he think!

There are twenty or thirty packs of this car, and according to the price she inquired just now, it takes at least two or three taels of silver to buy a car, which is really a big bargain.

"Since the price can't be sold, then we won't embarrass Brother Tong." Of course, Huwei knew that the man was deliberately lowering the price, and he was unwilling to sell it at such a low price.

The man is not in a hurry, he knows that Huwei will be short of food every year when they go to this checkpoint, and they only have his way in Chu State. If he doesn't help, it will be more troublesome for them to go to other places to buy food. At this time, he can take the opportunity to earn more money from them.

"I know that the price is not high, but I can't help it. Charcoal is not something that everyone can afford. The market is narrow. You don't know that the Chu Kingdom and the South Kingdom almost fought before. The price of grain on the border It jumped up all of a sudden, and before five copper coins could buy a catty of brown rice, but now it takes ten copper coins to buy it, so it has doubled."

Huwei frowned even deeper, "Would you like more or less?"

The man shook his head in embarrassment, "If I hadn't stockpiled the goods before, there may not be any goods for you now, and I only have a thousand loads left in total. If you don't want them, it will probably be gone in two days. "

Of course Huwei wants it, but the price has increased so much at once, and he feels a little bit heartbroken, after all, it is not easy for them to get some money.

"How much is a catty of white rice?" Su Ying asked.

The man gestured with two fingers, "Twenty copper coins."

Twenty copper plates are one catty, one tael is two taels of silver, and one thousand taels is two thousand taels. This price is more than twice the price she bought before.

Originally, their money was limited, so Su Ying didn't want to waste so much money.

The man saw that they were hesitant, so he immediately made a ruthless move, "How about this, you can discuss it later, I have an appointment with other people today, and they also said that they want to buy food, let's discuss it as soon as possible, otherwise If someone orders it, I won’t have so much in stock.”

"this……"

"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you." Su Ying stopped Hu Wei who was about to speak.

The man glanced at Su Ying, nodded, and sure enough, he turned and went back to the city.

Hu Wei was a little anxious seeing him leave, "Miss Su doesn't plan to do business with him anymore? We still have access to him in Chu State. If we don't, we won't be able to buy what we want here."

"Don't worry, there are no large-scale disasters in Chu this year, and the price of food will not increase for no reason. The war is even more ridiculous. There is going to be a war, and so many people can run outside the customs. That person knows clearly I just want to sit on the ground and raise the price.”

"Then, if we don't buy from him, who should we buy from?"
