The Little Cook's Wealthy Counterattack

Tie an oilcloth on the four pieces of wood, and place the rough shelf on the grain truck. Jiang qianxia lies on the grain bag regardless of the image, feeling the sweat flowing down.

"Miss qianxia, don't you mind? Take a fan. It's a little windy and refreshing."

Seeing Jiang qianxia's hot little face turn red, Wu Xiong, who was sent to her as a guard, cut off several young branches from the roadside. His strong fingers skillfully woven into a huge Pu fan to fan her.

The wind is hot. With the strange smell of branches and leaves baked by the sun, Jiang qianxia almost breathed.

I squinted hard outside the shed. The sun was high and the air fluctuated near the ground. It was the hottest time.

When the army marched, they didn't eat lunch. Hundreds of thousands of fierce soldiers fought in a hundred battles. Under the deadly hot sun, the sweat dripped down the sackcloth. The sweat dripped on the ground, emitting a faint white smoke and evaporated in an instant.

But no one unloaded their armor, and all soldiers moved forward calmly and powerfully like iron men.

Looking forward, Guli and other senior generals, wearing heavy armor, sat on the backs of war horses.

Iron is easy to conduct heat. Jiang qianxia felt it. Now knock an egg on Guli's armour and it will be fried in a while.

Stretching out his tongue to catch his breath, Jiang qianxia pointed to the front and asked strangely, "Why are the generals still wearing armor in such a hot day? People will be dehydrated if they endure so much."

Wu Xiong smiled and said naturally, "when the army marches, the general must wear armor. This is the rule. If the general takes off his armor, what face will he have to take charge of the soldiers?"

Soldiers should be prepared and conscious to fight anytime and anywhere. Soldiers who take off their armor when they are too hot have their dead bones turned into slag.

In his heart, Jiang qianxia barely smiled at Wu Xiong and continued to lie on the grain bag, relying on the natural coolness of rice.

I don't know how long it has been. Jiang qianxia's eyes are half closed. In his ears, there is only the sound of the army moving forward and the panting of animals.

"Jingling bell -"

Her ears stood up in an instant. Jiang qianxia opened her eyes and looked. A group of camel merchants were stopped by the army to check their identity. What she heard just now was the sound of camel bells.

"It's not easy to meet a caravan in the wilderness. Girl, would you like to go and see what's good? You're not short of money now."

Niu Qiang ran his horse to the grain truck and encouraged Jiang qianxia with a smile. He hasn't seen the girl get off the grain truck all the way. If he doesn't move his body and bones, his back will hurt to death at night.

Jiang qianxia was excited. With the help of Wu Xiong, he scrambled down from the grain truck. As soon as he landed, he staggered for two steps. His legs were sour and soft for a while, and he stood firm after half a sound.

Niu Qiang got off his horse and took Jiang qianxia to the camel team. The tall camels were crawling gently on the ground. Their backs were full of all kinds of goods.

The owner of the caravan was Daqian. After showing his ID card, he was happy to buy and sell his goods to the army.

"Gentlemen, it's not a small boast. There are good things on the hunchback!"

The merchant with his head wrapped in cloth smiled and untied a bag. The sweet and greasy jujube fragrance floated out. It turned out to be a bag of sun dried red jujube!

Jiang qianxia licked his dry lips, put aside the temptation of red dates and began to check other goods of the camel team.

Unconsciously, he scratched his hand over the bag. Suddenly, he felt that his hand was not right. Jiang qianxia stopped.

"You smuggle jade?"

Judging from the printed appearance of the bag, it really looks like stone. But the camel team can't carry worthless stones everywhere, so Jiang qianxia guessed that it was filled with smuggled jade.

"Girl, I dare not wronged people. Now the west is unstable. Only imperial merchants are qualified to resell jade materials. How dare we peddlers do that kind of thing that will lose our head!"

The merchant came quickly, afraid of being misunderstood by the Xuanjia army. He untied the bag neatly and revealed the light yellow crystal stones inside.

"This is the alchemy material for the Taoist priests in the pass. Although it's stone, it's said that it can be used as medicine."

Jiang qianxia picked up a piece and smelled it. He said casually, "isn't it saltpeter? Pure saltpeter should be colorless and transparent crystal or powder. You have a lot of impurities."

I didn't expect Jiang qianxia to know the goods. The merchant laughed twice. It's hard to say that this impure saltpeter has enough weight and is everywhere. These two bags were knocked down by the caravan in the cave.

Afraid that the buyer would be a profiteer, the merchant wanted to take the saltpeter in Jiang qianxia's hand back and tie the bag again. Unexpectedly, Jiang qianxia pinched the saltpeter to death and didn't return it to him at all.

"Saltpeter... Besides making gunpowder, it can also make ice..."

Suddenly, Jiang qianxia raised her head. Her eyes were so bright that people didn't dare to look straight. She threw the saltpeter in her hand into the bag. She threw herself on the bag and looked at the merchant innocently with her head up.

"I want all the saltpeter in the caravan. Please make a price!"

"Girl, why do you want these broken stones?" Niu Qiang asked inexplicably.

Jiang qianxia glanced at the merchant, winked at Niu Qiang and said vaguely, "it's useful and useful anyway. Whether I can walk to the battlefield alive depends on them!"

"All right, all right, give it to her if she wants. Don't delay today's march!"

A burst of ash rose. Xiao Jiu, sweating, rode over and urged him. He threw a piece of silver to the merchant. Xiao Jiu picked up a large bag of saltpeter with one hand, put it on the saddle and rode away.

Jiang qianxia was relieved when he watched Xiao Jiu put all the saltpeter in his grain truck.

He ordered the merchant to move all the remaining saltpeter and climb up the grain truck again. Jiang qianxia swept away her previous weakness and summoned Wu Xiong to help her get a large basin of water and wrap it in her arms.

There was a small basin floating in the big basin. He threw two pieces of saltpeter into the big basin. Jiang qianxia focused all his energy on the basin.

Holding the basin, Jiang qianxia can obviously feel the drop of temperature. Slowly, the water in the big basin first formed an ice shell.

Jiang qianxia pricked it with her fingers, picked up a piece of broken ice and stuck it on her neck. The ice immediately turned into water into her clothes. Comfortable, she couldn't help crying like a kitten.

Soon, the small basin also began to freeze. Jiang qianxia lost a piece in Niu Qiang's mouth. Seeing that Niu Qiang's eyes were almost staring out, he secretly touched and pointed to the suffering general in front.

Niu qiangchang smiled and drove his horse to the front solemnly. He bit Xiao Jiu's ear with Xiao Jiu who fell in the array. Xiao Jiu immediately fell from the Chinese army to the side of the grain truck in the middle and rear.

"Elder sister, is there really ice?"

Xiao Jiu stared at the basin covered with cloth in Jiang qianxia's arms with green eyes, and his throat rolled.

Jiang qianxia smiled and motioned Xiao Jiu to come over again. No one noticed. She quickly fished out a piece of broken ice and stuffed Xiao Jiu in her mouth.

Cherish the ice water, Xiao Jiu's tears are coming down.

"I'll keep the edible ice for you to spend the summer at night. You can quietly send these ice bags to them."

Jiang qianxia took out several broken ice bags packed in cloth bags and handed Xiao Jiu. Xiao Jiu first put one in his arms. He trembled comfortably for a while. Then he smiled and showed his white teeth. He took the remaining four ice bags and rode his horse to send them to the steamed brother in front.

He couldn't help looking back and saw Jiang qianxia's eyebrows bending and smiling at himself. Xiao Jiu's face was hot and quickly recited the heart clearing mantra.

"I dare not think carefully. I will be split by the boss..."
