Started to get rich after exile

Ming Lanying listened to the new little wild cat in the corner telling her about which girl had a good relationship with the nurse at home. They both eloped last night, and the next day she looked around for the popular one in the family but didn't dare to say anything about it.

One person and one cat were chatting animatedly when Hebai suddenly appeared from the grass nearby.

"sister in law!!"

Ming Lanying was startled and couldn't help but push the chestnut shell in her hand. He Bai avoided the chestnut shell quickly and smiled.

"Every day, I will be scared everywhere! I just can't walk well, right?"

He Bai crawled out of the grass and shook off the leaves, "I'm learning the stealth technique from the secret guard. I've been lying here for a long time. I've been listening to you and this wild cat meowing for a long time. What were you two talking about? ?”

Ming Lanying tore off the leaves on top of her head, "What can we talk about, isn't it just listening to the corners of other people's houses! Just you? Where's Shan Zhao?"

He Bai curled his lips, "He, he went to find Meng Huaisu and Ming Langtao. He said he wanted to ask for advice, but he didn't take me! Cut!"

Ming Lanying smiled and poked her swollen cheek. As soon as Hebai climbed out, the little wild cat was scared away, and she occupied the little wild cat's original position and acted coquettishly with Ming Lanying.

"Ning'er has been addicted to reading military books these past two days. I have been in poor health these past two days and have been taking medicinal baths at home. The secret guards in the house are hiding deeper and deeper. No one is playing with me anymore. Sister-in-law, please take me to play with you. "

Ming Lanying raised her eyebrows, "What do you want to play?"

He Bai rolled on the grass and said, "You can take me to play anything."

"Okay." Ming Lanying agreed without thinking, stood up and patted the grass scraps on her body, "Let's go, I will take you to play."

"Really? Good!"

He Baipidianpidian followed her, followed her into the carriage and staggered for a long time, not knowing where she went.

When he got off the carriage, Hebai was shocked by the scene in front of him.

It is a branch of a large restaurant that is being renovated. The general outline has been built. In the facilities inside the fine decoration, workers and carpenters are busy coming and going. Sawdust is flying all over the sky. More than [-] guards from the palace are guarding the place outside, and curious passers-by are watching. Dare to take a look from afar.

"Sister-in-law, is this what you want to take me to play with?"

Ming Lanying put her hands on her hips and looked at the scene in front of her with satisfaction, "What's wrong? Isn't this fun? Build this place bit by bit and then open it to make money, and make a steady stream of money!"

Hebai looked at her helplessly, "Our happiness is not the same."

"I'm here, I'll show you around."

Ming Lanying pulled her in with a smile. When the craftsmen saw Princess Yanbei coming, they quickly saluted. The leader of the craftsmen came out and asked cautiously.

"Wangfei came early, and it hasn't been installed yet. Now it is very dirty with dust and sawdust. Please move to the teahouse next door to have a rest."

Ming Lanying waved her hands indifferently. She didn't care much about the dust and sawdust. After all, in her previous life, she had been to many dirty scenes to find Party A in order to quickly rise.

"You guys are busy with your business, I'll just take a look at it twice, don't be formal."

"Yes Yes Yes."

Ming Lanying took Hebai around for a couple of laps, and the general location and furnishings had prototypes. It was the first time Hebai saw a big restaurant being renovated, and everything he saw was novel.

This time, the branch has added two floors of rooms that can accommodate guests. The original store had three floors. The lobby on the first floor, the private rooms on the second floor, and the private rooms on the third floor are his own place to live.

The current branch has one floor more than the original restaurant, the lobby on the first floor, the private room on the second floor, and guest rooms on the third and fourth floors.

From a distance, it is a very tall building with a large area, which is eye-catching.

There are often caravans passing by here, so I am not afraid that no one will stay in the store.

In the past, Shopkeeper Li was running the store alone and could only focus on cooking food. Now with the support of Ming Lanying, an additional option of staying in a hotel has been added to the food. Shopkeeper Li is now smiling.

Hebai marveled at this four-story building. She had only seen four-story buildings in the prosperous capital city. Four-story buildings in places like the border fortress are the most useless. They cost money and attract people's attention easily. The tallest building in the world is no more. Two floors, the higher one is a military building.

"Sister-in-law, where did you find such powerful craftsmen? You can build a four-story building here! It cost a lot of money, right?"

Ming Lanying chuckled reservedly, "If you are willing to spend money, you will naturally get good things. Since you want to do something, you must do the best, and you are not afraid that the money will not be returned."

He Bai clicked his tongue, "Sister-in-law, you have changed. You have become like those fat-bellied rich people. Only rich people can say such things."

Ming Lanying slapped her on the back, "You little bastard, why are you talking? Let's go to the next place."

"Where else are you going?"

"You will know when you go."

He Bai believed that she had no bad intentions and followed her without knowing why.

As a result, Ming Lanying took Hebai across various drug stores in Yanzhou to check the conditions and profits of the stores.

Hebai didn't understand the inspection shop, but he was curious about everything, and the main purpose of following her was pure companionship.

Xiaosan would occasionally fly around to Ye Juelu's side. Mr. Zhao and Meng Huaisu both said that sooner or later there would be a fight. Ming Lanying was worried but also knew that there was nothing she could do to help.

I can only let the mistress fly over occasionally to pay attention to the battle situation. When the fighting starts, I can send some useful things to the rear at any time, whether it is food or medicinal materials. With the mistress here, she can always know the fastest.

Mr. Zhao saw that Xiaosan would go out for a flight every two or three days, and he felt a little sorry for him even though he was under a lot of work pressure.

"Okay, Ye Juelu has been with the emperor for many years. Except for his straightforward temper and inability to play tricks, no one can be his opponent on the battlefield of real swords. You should do whatever you want, why not use this Haidongqing Send some love letter, he will be happier."

Ming Lanying curled her lips. Mr. Zhao had already said this. She couldn't say anything too pretentious even though she had a tough mouth.

Ning'er was not worried about her father at all, and Ming Lanying curiously asked why.

Ning'er replied calmly: "Daddy is the most powerful. Even the emperor's uncle can't beat daddy. Daddy is strategizing on the battlefield and will be back soon. Mother, don't worry."

Ming Lanying sighed helplessly. She couldn't compare to the old ones with more experience, and the lower ones couldn't compare to the young ones in maturity and stability. She could only raise the cubs for cooking.

The renovation of the restaurant branch will be completed in the middle of next month, and it will open at the end of the month. She'd better decide on the menu and recipes first, and concentrate on making money.

There are many ingredients that are not available here, so Ming Lanying can only find a way to make substitutes or process them by herself.

But she can only cook with ready-made ingredients. She has never tried processing ingredients. As soon as she figured out that she still had time, she did her own research.

After having people buy some raw materials, Ming Lanying rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen every day to do research. She made various bold attempts, which made Grandma Cai and the servants in the kitchen tremble with fear.

He Bai also comes over to join in the fun sometimes, having a great time, and even invites Dan Zhao to play together, and finally the two of them are driven out by Ming Lanying.The palace was peaceful and peaceful, but the battle ahead was not so peaceful. General Tuoba led his troops out of the city to face the enemy. Ye Juelu responded to the enemy with ease. He left them all behind with a simple formation and captured General Tuoba alive.

This battle went back and forth for a day and a night. General Tuoba was captured. Ye Juelu directly asked people to call for battle, either to redeem their general with territory and gold and silver, or to wait to collect the general's body. They hit it right in.

The new queen of a neighboring country was so angry that she managed to kill her brothers and sisters to get to this position. Before she could get her rights back, she was threatened by a king with a different surname.

She immediately ordered a few new generals to lead troops for reinforcements. The first thing she did was to bring back the Soldier Tiger Talisman of General Tuoba.

He also ordered that General Tuoba's death in battle be reported back to the General's Mansion, and that the women and children of the General's Mansion should be buried with him.

This was a tacit agreement to abandon General Tuoba, which was expected by Ye Juelu and the emperor.

General Tuoba originally thought that the Queen would let his family go if he died, and he would not have to collaborate with the enemy and treason. However, when he saw a blazing fire in the direction of the General's Mansion in the imperial city from a distance, and Ye Jue Lu asked someone to risk their lives to bring out his wife and daughter, but he remained silent and his heart was filled with despair.

It seems that he was thinking too beautifully. How could the cruel and ruthless new emperor leave a worthless person to occupy a position of real power?

Seeing the panic on the faces of his wife and daughter, General Tuoba's firm heart began to waver. When Ye Juelu extended his olive branch again, he took it without hesitation.

General Tuoba has since become a member of Ye Juelu's command.

This is also what the emperor meant. The Tuoba family can stay, but they cannot have great power. Everything must be controlled by Ye Juelu.

Even for those who betrayed for a reason, it is difficult to say whether there will be a next time, and they will not waste their talents, but they will not trust them wholeheartedly.

General Tuoba had no objection to this. He just wanted to have a new start with his wife and daughter in a new place, and he no longer had to worry about the new life of crossing rivers and burning bridges.

The soldiers of the neighboring countries were leaderless for a short time, and reinforcements did not arrive so quickly. Ye Juelu did not hesitate and directly ordered to fight all the way to where they were.

With him taking the lead, his men made great progress and captured five cities in half a month.

Only when we got inside did we realize that, except for the soldiers under Tuoba's original command, the other troops in the city were just useless soldiers with wine bags and rice bags. They dispersed with a gentle push and posed no threat at all.

Tuoba shook his head regretfully, "Before her death, the late emperor was already unable to deal with political affairs and began to delegate power. However, none of her children could shoulder the responsibility of a country. They only stared at the overwhelming power and wealth in front of them. .”

"A country that begins to rot from within will self-destruct sooner or later without external intervention."

Ye Juelu patted him on the shoulder. During the entire attack, Tuoba mingled with the soldiers. First, he wanted to vent his past anger, and second, he wanted to bury with his own hands this homeland that had changed beyond recognition due to the change of dynasties.

Seeing Ye Juelu and the others getting deeper and deeper into neighboring countries, Xiao San tilted his head in confusion, fluttered his wings and flew back to the Yanzhou Palace.

Ming Lanying had just finished a dark dish and was studying what happened when Hai Dongqing's cry woke her up.

The kitchen window was wide open, and the feathers were shiny. Hai Dongqing stood by the window and yelled twice.

Ming Lanying's eyes suddenly widened, full of surprises and surprises. She endured the excitement and washed her hands, put the dark food into the waste bin, and hurriedly told Zhao Laohebai and the others the good news.

After hearing this, He Bai punched Shan Zhao regretfully, "Damn it! We should have asked for orders to go together! Such a good opportunity can also earn some military glory!"

Shan Zhao covered his arms and bared his teeth, "It's not too late for you to go now. Their reinforcements are coming soon. It will definitely be difficult to fight by then. You go and be the vanguard."

Mr. Zhao took a cane and struck each one, "How can the battlefield be a child's play? You two are really young and ignorant!"

"Hey! Mr. Zhao, you can just hit her, why are you hitting me! I have fought in the battlefield! I am not the same as this!"

Shan Zhao dodged Zhao Lao's crutches, and He Bai hid directly behind her.

"You're the only one who's great! I'm not bad at killing the rebels, right?"

Shan Zhao moved sideways to block her without leaving a trace, "When you kill the rebels, you kill your own people. What I kill are foreign enemies. Can it be the same?"

He Bai's whole body was hard, and his mouth was hard, "Why is it different! The rebels are traitors, and they are not one of our own! If you betray, you are an outsider!"

When Ming Lanying saw that Shan Zhao was still blocking for He Bai, she immediately took action and said, "Okay, okay, if you want military merit, you can earn it yourself. I think you two are idle, so write a letter to the emperor asking for orders to help Ye Jue." Either way, hurry up and come back before the Chinese New Year."

After returning to the frontier fortress, Ye Juelu was busy with the war, Ming Lanying was busy making money, and He Bai and Shan Zhao were idle and didn't know what to do. Now that they finally had something to do, they immediately went back to their houses to write letters.

Ye Juelu didn't let the two of them go to the battlefield from the beginning, He Bai had never been to the battlefield and was afraid of trouble, and Shan Zhao was from the Shan family at the border, so he was afraid that he would not be able to explain what happened.

Now knowing that neighboring countries are so easy to fight, Ming Lanying simply asked them to write letters to the emperor. The emperor agreed and Ye Juelu had no choice.

I asked my mistress to deliver the letter. After more than half a month of traveling back and forth, winter had already entered the frontier.

Dongxia's belly was a little pregnant, but the fetus was still not stable. Ming Lanying didn't dare to let her out, so she kept her at home. Meng Huaisu was busy during the day, so Aunt Meng came to help take care of her.

The emperor replied, as expected, that he agreed with He Bai and Shan Zhao to help, but he had to listen to Ye Jue Lv.

He Bai and Shan Zhao cheered and went back to their houses to pack their things.

Before leaving, Ming Lanying asked Shan Zhao privately.

"What do you think about Hebai now?"

Shan Zhao looked at her seriously, "I love her. I can accompany her wherever she wants. My martial arts skills are not bad, and I can protect her. Maybe we can fight against all the invincible opponents in the world together!" "

Ming Lanying looked at him in surprise, "You never thought about expressing your feelings to her?"

Shan Zhao hesitated for a moment, smiled and shook his head, "She doesn't understand this at all. I can wait for her to wake up. If she doesn't, I will stay with her."

"Aren't you afraid that she won't like yours?"

Shan Zhao said with a confident smile: "Don't be afraid, she doesn't even know what love is, how can she know what kind of person she likes! As long as I am the only high-quality man around her, she will definitely not be able to look at other crooked men. superior!"

The young man's bright smile was like the scorching summer sun, and his pure emotion made Ming Lanying couldn't help but smile.

"Okay, He Bai will be left to you first. She has never been on the battlefield, so you can keep an eye on her for us."

Ye Juelu couldn't watch He Bai at all times on the battlefield, only Shan Zhao could.

"Make sure she comes back safe and sound!"

Ming Lanying sent the two of them out, and He Bai waved to Ming Lanying excitedly on his horse.

"Sister-in-law! Wait for our triumphant return!"
