Chapter 377 Sea Anemone City
Chapter 377 Sea Anemone City
The one-eyed man shook his head: "No, you have no choice but to accept it or... die."
Jiang Lili widened her eyes, grabbed Xin Che's sleeve tightly, and looked like she was about to cry out of fear.
One played the good cop, the other played the bad cop. The young man next to the one-eyed man said in a soft tone, "In fact, if you don't cooperate with us and do business with the Haikui City military camp normally, you will lose the most. You can only make money from these sheep."
Xin Che thought for a moment and understood what the young man meant, but he still pretended to be confused as if he had just arrived: "Brother, what do you mean?"
When the young man heard Xin Che ask this question, he knew that the other party was tempted. He said, "After the three princes and princesses fight, Haikui City will definitely be affected. You may even be stranded in Nanzhao because of the war. Once the situation becomes chaotic, things will not be peaceful. You outsiders are not familiar with Nanzhao. If you are not careful, you may even lose your life."
The young man emphasized the last sentence, which made people feel nervous.
Xin Jiajun's face showed panic at the right time: "Well, what should we do? The business has been negotiated, and the ship is about to arrive in Haikui City."
The young man was just waiting for them to panic so that he could continue to cast the hook: "It will be different if you help our master. Our master can protect you and let you leave Nanzhao safely. When our master unifies Nanzhao, you can continue to come back to do business."
"By then, with the previous cooperation foundation, we will give you priority in opportunities to make money."
When Jiang Lili heard this, her eyes lit up and she asked in a naive tone, "Really?"
After saying this, she seemed to realize that she was too anxious and shrank back into Xin Che's arms.
The young man looked at Jiang Lili's greedy and timid appearance and couldn't help laughing. He smiled at her in a friendly manner: "Of course it's true. When the new king ascends the throne, he also needs to purchase supplies from farmers like you to stabilize the overall situation."
The young man has a relaxed look and bright eyes, and his lips are red and his teeth are white when he smiles. He is tall and has fewer injuries on his body than the others. It is obvious that he is well protected. He is probably positioned as the military strategist of Baizhishan among this group of people.
Xin Che blocked his gaze from Jiang Lili and said, "I have a question."
The young man raised his eyebrows. He knew that the man opposite him was not as easy to fool as others: "Please speak, sir."
Xin Che looked at him steadily: "Your master is so powerful, why are you so badly injured and look like you are fleeing?"
The one-eyed man was furious when he heard this: "Because there was a traitor among us and the plan was exposed, we were hunted down by the Second Princess's men."
"But don't worry, the traitors have been eliminated now, and the reinforcements sent by our master will meet us in Aoi City tomorrow morning."
"It's just that it's hard to get rid of our tail, so we fled to the sea."
Xin Che showed a look of understanding: "We have no choice but to cooperate with you, but I hope you can ensure the safety of all of us on board."
The young man nodded when he saw Xin Che holding the girl in his arms tightly. He admired such a man of integrity and who was neither humble nor arrogant.
"Don't worry, when we take action, our people will stay with this girl and keep her safe."
It is both protection and threat.
Xin Che nodded and put on a look of compromise.
At this time, the deputy general Xu Zishen, who played the role of the leader, asked his doubts: "Brothers, are you going to send us sheep or male concubines?"
The young man looked at Xu Zishen and said firmly: "I'll give you the sheep and the male pet as well!"
【@苏锐: Has anyone asked for my opinion? 】
【@江麗麗: Just give in! Just treat this as an adventure game! 】
【@苏锐: I, Su Rui, have lived a carefree life with a strong character. How could I commit myself to being a male concubine and use my beauty to seduce others? 】
The young man walked up to Su Rui and looked at his exotic face with interest: "I know best what style the Second Princess likes. Our people will dress you up well by then."
Jiang Lili, Xin Che and the Xin family army all focused their attention on Su Rui, hoping that this guy would not reveal any flaws.
After a moment, everyone saw Su Rui showing a smile that was seven parts shy and three parts happy, and his tone of half-reluctance was just right, "Actually... I'm still not ready."
Combined with his exotic face, he has a special charm.
Jiang Lili and the others were shocked.
The young man smiled cheerfully: "You will definitely win the princess's favor!"
【@江麗麗: Didn’t you just say that you have a strong character? I feel like your acting as a male favorite is simply perfect! 】
[@苏锐: Don't look at me like that. It's because I used to be in the desert and used similar methods to assassinate tribal leaders.]
After the discussion, the atmosphere eased.
Jiang Lili found medical supplies for treating wounds. Except for the small bottles of medicine filled with Yunnan Baiyao, all other items for treating wounds were commonly used by ancient people.
The one-eyed man and others took the items sent by Jiang Lili and expressed their gratitude.
When Jiang Lili was delivering medical supplies, she took the opportunity to take pictures of these people's facial features and sent them to Sheng Zhixing, asking him to see if he had seen them before.
It was early morning and Sheng Zhixing had not responded yet.
Jiang Lili yawned, took some mutton soup buns to share with these people, and then went back to the cabin to sleep.
Xin Che and the Xin family army took turns paying attention to the movements outside.
The one-eyed man and his group were also taking turns to rest. They looked like they hadn't slept for a long time, and those who could rest were sleeping soundly.
When Jiang Lili woke up the next morning, she could already see the dock of Anemone City from the deck of the ship.
Everyone on the boat has woken up.
Seeing Jiang Lili coming out of the cabin, the one-eyed man couldn't wait to come to Jiang Lili and asked, "Miss, where did you buy this wound medicine? We applied the medicine at night, and the wound didn't hurt when we woke up this morning. The effect of the medicine is really great!"
Xin Che walked over to Jiang Lili and said to the one-eyed man, "This trauma medicine is made from an ancient recipe passed down from my wife's family through a special process. Only my wife knows how to make it."
The one-eyed man understood what he said: "I see! I wonder how much trauma medicine is left on the ship? Can you sell it all to us?"
Jiang Lili thought about it and rolled her eyes: "What I gave you yesterday is the full amount, but if you need it, you can also buy herbs in Nanzhao Haikui City, and then I will make it for you."
The one-eyed man nodded excitedly: "Okay, you can pay as much as you want! We will buy as much as you can make!"
At this time, another person came up and asked, "Girl, who made this mutton soup steamed bun?"
