Chapter 204: Taking Hair for Test Report
When they were almost at Prince Jin's mansion, Prince Jin's WeChat video suddenly rang. When they picked it up, it turned out to be the emperor.
"Brother Royal?"
Prince Jin didn't understand. He had just left the palace half an hour ago. What did his royal brother mean by calling him via video at this time?
The Emperor was in the Empress's palace, letting her watch this magical phone call. He smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just wanted to demonstrate to your sister-in-law the magical function of the mobile phone. She said she didn't believe anything before, so I called you in front of her to confirm whether it was true. Now she believes it."
In fact, it was not just the Queen, he himself was also curious whether it was really possible to make phone calls and video calls from such a long distance.
Unexpectedly, all of this is true.
"It's Prince Jin! It's really him."
The Queen was shocked when she saw Prince Jin appear on her phone.
"Mu Yin pays respects to the Empress."
King Jin greeted him respectfully.
"Why are you greeting me? It's just me and your brother here, so there's no need to be so polite. Also, thank you for the cell phones you gave me and His Majesty. I love them."
The queen couldn't let go of the mobile phone, and almost hugged it and kissed it.
"As long as the Empress likes it."
When the King of Jin saw that they both liked it, he also felt happy.
The more frank he was, the more uncomfortable the emperor felt when he saw his smile.
After all, I...
"Royal brother and sister-in-law! We have arrived at the Prince of Jin's mansion."
Prince Jin lifted the curtain, got out of the carriage, and pointed his phone at the three words "Prince Jin's Mansion" so that his brother and sister-in-law could see it more clearly and make it more realistic.
"Mu Yin! Go to bed early."
The emperor knew he was in the wrong, so he gave a few instructions and then hung up the phone.
After returning to Prince Jin's Mansion, Xia Wanwan washed up again because she was going to a banquet.
Because she was worried about Gu Huaijin's problem, she called him, "Husband! How are you doing?"
As soon as Gu Huaijin had set up camp, he received a call from Xia Wanwan. Her magnetic voice said gently, "Everything is going well. Don't worry."
"I have completed my mission to capture Commander Han. Where did you catch him?"
Xia Wanwan was a little curious. They couldn't catch Commander Han on the battlefield, but they were caught by Gu Huaijin.
Gu Huaijin raised the corner of his mouth with a doting arc, "My lady, have you forgotten about the bounty for the man you captured today?"
"It seems that money really makes the world go round. How many people are there to capture him? I'll give you the silver."
Xia Wanwan knew that he didn't have much money left, and now he was going to unify the eight countries, so he would definitely spend more money.
Today was different from the past. Before, he had money but couldn't spend it, but now he could buy things anywhere, and maintaining an army required a lot of expenses. All his previous rewards had been used to pay the soldiers' salaries. The soldiers were away fighting for years and couldn't always carry silver with them.
"No, we have money."
Gu Huaijin smiled slightly, indicating that they had money.
Also, if he continues like this, he will soon become a gigolo.
So this money cannot be taken.
Xia Wanwan asked curiously, "Where did you get the money?"
"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to the capture of Commander Han. He actually never left Jin State. He was hiding in Jiangcheng. When Deputy General Zhou issued the wanted order this afternoon, some soldier claimed they had no pay and needed to unify the eight kingdoms, so they were offering a bounty for his capture. As a result, the enthusiastic people of Jiangcheng came forward with silver and made donations."
Gu Huaijin was a little amused and moved when he said this. In such a difficult situation, the people were able to donate their own money.
"Can this still happen?"
As Xia Wanwan listened, a smile involuntarily appeared on the corner of her mouth.
It seems that Jin State is indeed richer than she imagined. Although many people starved to death due to drought in the north, that was when they could not buy food even with money, not because they had no money.
In fact, it is thanks to Your Majesty's good governance. If prices had skyrocketed before, the final result would not have been this, because the rich would have been in stark contrast to the poor. Fortunately, during the period of skyrocketing prices, Your Majesty immediately and decisively executed those merchants who manipulated prices, and only then was the situation brought under control.
"Madam! Let's not talk about this for now. I'm going to go see if the other campsites have set up their tents."
Gu Huaijin was afraid that the soldiers would not be able to use the tents that Xia Wanwan brought from China, so he planned to go and take a look.
"it is good."
Xia Wanwan was worried that he didn't have enough bedding, so she asked, "By the way, do the soldiers over there have bedding to cover themselves with at night?"
Gu Huaijin replied: "It should be no problem. How about this, if you still have some in your space, please help me transfer some over first. If it's enough, I won't take it out. If it's not enough, I will distribute it to the soldiers."
"OK."
After Xia Wanwan hung up the phone, she transferred all the inventory in the space to him.
According to calculations, the supplies she ordered, such as electric batons and cutting machines, should arrive tomorrow.
They were originally intended for use in this war, but after we got the support of the king and had guns, these were no longer of much use.
However, these things are hard to come by in this world, and it would be a good idea to open a store and make money in the future.
As soon as she hung up, Tang Jiamin's video came in. As soon as she picked up the phone, she heard her complaining, "Where have you been, you heartless person? You left me here all alone, without anyone to talk to."
Xia Wanwan quickly comforted her, "Jiamin, something happened here this afternoon, and the Space-Time Gate suddenly became unusable, so I didn't come back."
"What? The Space-Time Gate can't be used?" Tang Jiamin was shocked when she heard this. She cried, "I don't care. You're the only one I know in this world. You have to support me from now on."
Xia Wanwan burst out laughing, "Okay, okay, I'll support you, but you don't have to be so sad, because my time and space gate will be back to normal tonight."
Tang Jiamin's mouth twitched fiercely, and her heart felt like it was on a roller coaster. "You scared me. I just thought I would live here for the rest of my life."
"Jia Min! Please help me guard the border for one more day. I need to go back to China tomorrow to collect some supplies."
Xia Wanwan was worried that the captured enemy soldiers over there might make secret moves, so she was a little worried and planned to keep her here for two more days.
"no problem."
Tang Jiamin patted his chest and agreed generously.
The two then chatted for a few more sentences, and because they were both tired after a day of work, they quickly hung up the phone and went to sleep.
The next day.
Xia Wanwan went to the restaurant early in the morning to pay the remaining money, and then found an empty alley to return to the modern era.
After hearing about what happened at the clan house, Prince Jin did not go to China this time, but stayed to collect evidence.
When Xia Wanwan arrived in China, she first went to the bank to exchange the gold into Chinese currency, and then paid the balance of the order.
Because the supply would not be delivered until the afternoon, Xia Wanwan went to the hospital and took Prince Jin's hair and her own hair to get an examination report.
