Sick Man Turns Out to be a General

Zhan Tialan sat on the chair like a big boss, her long legs rested on the table, she said unhappily: "My second uncle's head was probably kicked by a donkey, right? He actually told me to come back and get married. "    

Zhan Tialan had no doubt that if Battling Second Master was here, she would immediately charge forward and strangle him.    

Xu Yanlin shot a glance at her in disdain, reached out his hands to touch her legs, and said: "Be more civilized, this is Zi An's study, not your military camp."    

Zhan Tialan raised her head and glared at him, letting out a cold snort, "What's wrong with his study? You guys still dare to chase me out? "    

Zhan Tialan's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty killing intent. The Northeast Army was famous for being iron-blooded, the army was very united, and every one of them were iron-blooded tough guys.    

Xu Yanlin was a civil servant, his skills were not good, but he could not withstand her pressure.    

Retreating to Mu Chen's side, he winked at his and did not say another word.    

"Who did he want you to marry? Has the Emperor agreed? " Zhan Tialan was a spiritual being of the Northeast Army. If she were to marry someone, who would lead the Northeast Army?    

"You don't know?" Zhan Tialan retorted, and started laughing coldly, "I even thought that you guys knew about it already."    

Her smile was a bit forced, and her eyes held a hint of sadness. Although she already knew that her second uncle's family was cruel and ungrateful, she still hoped for kinship and for those people to truly treat her as a family member. However …    

She laughed bitterly, "It was Northern Qi who proposed the marriage, and their target is the fourth prince of Northern Qi."    

Big Yan had fought with Bei Qi for more than twenty years, no matter how much he lost or lost, but that person had won the worst fight ever. That year, her father died, and the people of Northern Goose Sect passed through the most difficult year.    

"I have a grudge with him, and he still wants to marry me?" If she didn't beat him to death, that was because he was lucky to have dared to come over to make peace with her.    

"The Emperor probably won't agree." Marrying a capable general to another country was something that a mentally retarded person would do.    

"My second uncle doesn't know what's wrong with him. He's been persuading me to marry him. What good will it do for him if I marry him to Northern Qi?"    

Zhan Tialan gnashed her teeth in hatred. Her grandmother had always been biased towards Second Uncle, and did not pity her father who had always been fighting outside. She had only asked her father to take care of Second Uncle. The General's Estate let Second Uncle's family live there, and the family's property and income all belonged to Second Uncle. They even used his relationship with him to find him a place to idle around in the capital, but Second Uncle was learning to be selfish, becoming more and more greedy. He never cared about his father, never sent him a letter, never sent him a single cent.    

She had completely given up on that family, so she would rather stay in the Northeast military camp than return to the capital to face them.    

Mu Chen also found it strange, but what made him even more suspicious was the emperor's attitude. Zhan Tialan's battle achievements were impressive, and she had a lot of prestige in the hearts of the people at the northeastern border.    

"..."    

When Shen Jingli entered, he saw the three of them sitting at the side, seemingly lost in thought. He greeted the two guests and sat beside Mu Chen.    

"What happened?" Shen Jingli asked Mu Chen quietly.    

"Just don't know what happened? That's why I'm worried. " Xu Yanlin slumped onto the reclining chair, his face full of gloom.    

Shen Jingli, "..."    

She leaned back on the chair, and placed both his legs on the table in front of his. His posture was extremely mesmerizing, and Shen Jingli sighed to himself, this female general was indeed an extraordinary person.    

"Oh yeah, I heard you want to sell peanut oil to let me buy shares." Xu Yanlin said, he raised his teacup and took a sip, the already cold tea was a little astringent, he frowned: "No need, 20% is enough."    

Previously, when he went to the King Jing Palace to see the King Jing, he heard the King Jing mention of Shen Jingli's peanut oil. The color was good and the smell was rich.    

20% was enough?    

Shen Jingli frowned, being able to pinch a fly to death. His breath was heavy, wanting to take twenty percent of the peanuts away from him for no reason. Did he really think that his peanuts would fall from the sky?    

"Why should I let you buy shares?" To take advantage of him, to dream.    

"I can fund it."    

"Too late." His oil refinery was already functioning normally, and the oil shop was already prepared. He did not lack funds at all.    

Xu Yanlin was normally quite easy to talk to, but at the critical moment, he kept quiet, which was really worrisome. He thought about it and decided to change the method to: "Sister-in-law, you can't be so disrespectful. Wen Rui is pregnant. If you don't let me buy shares and I can't make money, how can I raise a child? "    

"Nonsense." Shen Jingli snorted, "The food brocade Xuan contribution points are more than enough for you to take care of a family, furthermore you have a horse farm, and other shops, you dare call yourself poor."    

This person's skin was so thick that it could compare to a city wall. Shen Jingli rolled his eyes and was too lazy to bother with him.    

Xu Yanlin embarrassedly touched his nose. Shen Jingli really knows a lot about their family.    

"You're willing to let your highness buy twenty percent, why can't you let me buy twenty percent? "Otherwise, ten percent is fine too." Based on his calculations, Shen Jingli definitely wanted to monopolize the peanut oil market.    

"He is the Prince." As long as his name was well-known.    

Alright, Xu Yanlin has completely given up. His reputation is not as resounding as that of a prince, and Shen Jingli is not lacking in money, so for a business deal like this, there is no need to take advantage of him.    

After interacting with Shen Jingli for a long time, he had become more and more experienced in business. As for what kind of business could earn him money, Xu Yanlin clearly knew in his heart that if a good business transaction slipped away from him, how could he not feel heartache?    

"What is peanut oil?" Even after listening to their discussion for so long, Zhan Tialan was still confused.    

"The oil used to cook vegetables is the same as rapeseed oil, but it's more fragrant and tasty." Xu Yanlin licked his lips, as if he was trying to savor something.    

"Stop acting like you've eaten before, didn't you always use Cottonseed Oil s?" Shen Jingli kicked him.    

Xu Yanlin laughed twice, "I heard from the Duke …. But how do you know my family uses Cottonseed Oil? "    

"You really use Cottonseed Oil?" Shen Jingli opened his eyes wide and looked at him with disdain, "Always using the Cottonseed Oil, and you still dare to say that Wen Rui is pregnant, you damned liar."    

"If we use Cottonseed Oil, why can't we get pregnant?"    

"There's something wrong with the Cottonseed Oil …"    

Xu Yanlin suddenly stood up, and even Mu Chen's expression was not good.    

"You said that the Cottonseed Oil is harmful to the son?" He could not believe it.    

"That's right, the Cottonseed Oil killed the essence."    

Xu Yanlin revealed an expression as if he had nothing to live for, he once again collapsed onto the reclining chair. Seeing that, Zhan Tialan gloated while laughing, and curiously asked: "How did you know that the Cottonseed Oil is harming the heirs?"    

"I just know." Shen Jingli replied shamelessly.    

Xu Yanlin knew that Shen Jingli would definitely not joke around with this matter, so it was definitely true that Cottonseed Oil had an offending child. He thought about the circumstances of their family for the past few years, and it seemed that ever since they used Cottonseed Oil, no one had ever given birth to them.    

Zhao Wenrui had always thought that it was because of his own body that he couldn't have children.    

"You don't have to worry about that. The Jin Xuan restaurant has male medicine wine, you can bring some back to drink." Shen Jingli was gloating.    

The corner of Xu Yanlin's mouth twitched. He was already so young and he needed the aphrodisiac, how shameful would it be if word of it were to spread?    

"Can I buy a share of your peanut oil business?" Zhan Tialan was very interested in the peanut oil business. Perhaps, it could be said that she was very interested in Shen Jingli.    

"You want to buy shares?" Shen Jingli was a little surprised.    

"I don't have much money on me. Can I get one percent for two thousand taels of silver?"    

"Sure." Shen Jingli agreed readily.    

"It's not fair." Xu Yanlin protested loudly, "On what basis is she buying shares in?"    

"I'd love to."    

Xu Yanlin was completely defeated.    

"..."    

The peanut oil weighed a total of seven thousand catties, he paid tribute to the palace a thousand catties, got a signboard handwritten by the emperor, and sent another three hundred catties to the King Jing, obtaining three thousand taels of silver. He left a thousand catties for the people and his own family, and sold the rest of the four thousand seven hundred catties.    

With the emperor's personal writing signboard, Shen Jingli's oil shop was quickly opened. In order to attract customers, Shen Jingli made a stove at the door and used peanut oil to fry vegetables for everyone to taste.    

The freshly squeezed peanut oil was very fragrant, and when cooking, it was extremely fragrant. The passersby were all tickled by the smell and came over to ask what it was.    

It was the first time peanut oil had appeared in the capital, and the emperor had personally mentioned it, so Shen Jingli set the price a little higher. Even so, it was only 10 taels of silver a barrel, and 50 Jin a barrel.    

The commoners halted their steps, but the rich families all took action. The amount of oil was much better than rapeseed oil, and there was a limit. If they did not hurry up and buy it, could it be that they were waiting for him to sell it all?    

Among them, one of the imperial merchants, the Cha family, bought five hundred kilograms, while the relative Zhou family of Yang Family bought two hundred kilograms. The officials family also heard that the emperor was using this oil, so they bought some for thirty to fifty kilograms.    

What was laughable was that Old Lady Mu actually sent someone over to ask Shen Jingli to give over five hundred kilograms of the Marquis Zhen Yuan Mansion. The free kind, that Shen Jingli could not be bothered with, was given fifty kilograms to Mu Yu, which was enough for him to eat for an entire year.    

When Old Lady Mu heard about this, she was so angry that she started to tremble. She scolded Shen Jingli for being rude, and those who did not respect the elderly, for not having good eyes, for holding a rotten stone as a treasure.    

However, no matter how much she cursed, Shen Jingli's peanut oil was sold out in less than a month.    

Especially some merchants, who saw that it had benefits and came over to ask about them. Some people came to find out about the peanuts while some wanted to cooperate with Shen Jingli.    

After lunch, Shen Jingli was reading the account books of the oil shop. In order to make the oil shop open for a long time, he had first bought a batch of rapeseed oil and put a batch of grains inside to sell. He didn't need to worry about all the peanut oil being sold out, and the oil shop had to close for a long time.    

"Madam, Boss Cha requests an audience." Nian Hua handed over a name scroll.    

"Which Boss Cha?"    

"The boss of one of the four royal merchants, the one who bought five hundred catties of peanut oil from our oil shop."
