Realizing Xiao Han's somewhat strange gaze, Feng An's old face immediately pulled down: "I made this to sell to the natives in Annan. Otherwise, how would I support such a big business and so many sons?" ?”
"Are these things sold to those monkeys in Annan?" Xiao Han was startled when he heard this explanation, and then he suddenly realized.
He just said that even if Feng An eats Wu Shi Powder and destroys his brain, he will not harm the Lingnan people who are protected by Madam Xian.
As for Annan?
Those monkeys who are still uncivilized? What do they do? Maybe they are eating bananas and mixing them with this stuff will make them even more delicious!
"Hahaha, this kid is overthinking, don't blame Mr. Feng!" After laughing, Xiao Han cupped his hands towards Feng An, and simply admitted his little thoughts, which made Feng An somewhat embarrassed.
"Ahem, um, I also know that this is not very authentic. However, the land in Lingnan is barren and there is really no output, so this is also a temporary measure..."
"Hey~" Xiao Han interrupted Feng An's words and complimented with a smile: "You know, isn't this also a sign of Mr. Feng's integrity? He would rather run out to find money by himself than collect more taxes from the people! Now! As long as our own people don't suffer, who cares whether this is authentic or not?"
"Huh?" Feng Ang didn't expect that Xiao Han's attitude towards foreigners was the same as his. He was stunned for a moment, and then he realized: "Hahaha! You kid! You are thinking about me! I heard Duke Qiao talking about you last time Come on, I still don’t believe it! When I see you today, I’m stunned that I want it!”
Duke Qiao is Xiao Han's good friend Chai Shao.
Hearing Feng An mention him, Xiao Han immediately remembered the time when Xiao Lizi sent Chai Shao to Guangzhou, but was deceived by Feng Anhao.
Although Chai Shao, who has always been carefree, seems to have no objection to this, Xiao Han, who is cautious, always remembers it.
The smile on his face suddenly became a little stiff. Although Xiao Han had some affection for the bold old man in front of him, no matter how he calculated it, it was not as deep as his relationship with Chai Shao.
So, in order to vent his anger for his good friends who were far away in Chang'an, and also to let Feng An know that they were not easy to fool, Xiao Han's mind changed and he suddenly pretended to be casual and said:
"Haha, Feng Gong is talking about the time two years ago! Brother Chai also talked about Feng Gong to me when he came back that time. However, he felt that Feng Gong was somewhat unreasonable and used the people to fight the war. Fool him and fight him for two or three years! With your prestige, Mr. Feng, let alone two or three years, I am afraid that if you go there, the people will drop their weapons and surrender."
"Ah? Cough cough cough..."
Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Han said this, Feng An, who had laughed so proudly just now, almost choked to death on a mouthful of saliva, touched his chest and coughed several times. After finally regaining his breath, Feng Ang smiled awkwardly at Xiao Han. He said: "How could it be? Haha, those civil servants are very troublesome. Who can catch them if they go into the forest? It is common for them to fight for several years."
"Oh, is that so? Brother Chai misunderstood you?"
"I must have misunderstood! Next time I see him, I will explain it to him personally! Ahem, it's getting late, let's not talk about this anymore, let's go, I've prepared a banquet! Please try Lingnan specialties together!"
Being exposed on the spot, even a ruthless person like Feng Ang couldn't help but feel his face getting hot, and he coughed twice, trying to blur the matter away.
On the other side, Xiao Han saw that his goal had been achieved and it was hard for Feng An to get off the stage. He laughed twice, even if he acquiesced to Feng An's words.
Coming out of the place where the five stones were stored, it was already dark outside.
Manager Hu, who had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time, saw the door open. He quickly cheered up and ran over with a lantern. Xiao Han's face turned pale when he saw the candlelight flickering.
"Stop, right there! Don't move!"
He trembled his fingers and shouted at Manager Hu, who was so frightened that the old man almost hit the pillar in front of the porch.
"Xiao Hou, what are you doing?"
Feng An on the side frowned when he saw this, thinking that Xiao Han was still thinking about what happened two days ago and was resentful of Manager Hu.
Xiao Han didn't want to but smiled bitterly, turned around and closed the door first, then pointed to the lantern in Manager Hu's hand and said to Feng Ang: "Mr. Feng, how dare you bring an open flame in to a place like this?"
"What's wrong with the open fire?" Feng Ang became more and more confused about Xiao Han's words. He was sure that there were only five scattered stones in the room behind him, and there was not much oil, silk, or even wood that was afraid of the fire. Could it be that those stones were worn out?
It’s a mature thing, but it’s still afraid of fire?
"Open flame..." Xiao Han didn't know how to explain to Feng An what a dust explosion was, let alone that the saltpeter in the Five Stone Powder was one of the raw materials for making firearms. After hesitating a few times, he could only vaguely explain.
He said: "I can't say this, but Mr. Feng believes in what I said. Remember, there must be no open flames here, especially in the room where the five stone powder is made, let alone any candles."
"Oh~"
Xiao Han's answer was very vague, but after hearing this, Feng Ang still thought about it seriously, then nodded to Manager Hu and motioned for him to follow suit.
Although Manager Hu was confused, the head of the family nodded, and since these words came from Xiao Han's mouth, he naturally agreed.
After all, a few days ago, Xiao Han casually drove on the right and solved a big problem for him. This also made Manager Hu look at Xiao Han with admiration early, so that later he found out that Xiao Han was the famous Xiao Hou
At the time, he didn't look too shocked.
Holding the horse, a few people chatted and laughed and came to the street outside. Feng Ang was about to invite Xiao Han to get on the horse and follow him back home. Suddenly, at the end of the street, there was a burst of messy footsteps, and there seemed to be someone shouting something loudly in the middle.
"What's going on?" Hearing the noisy voice, Feng Ang's expression changed and he turned back to look at Manager Hu.
Manager Hu's face was a little pale at this time. He had lived in this city for half his life, and he could count the number of emergencies he encountered at night on one hand. Why did something unexpected happen when the head of the house entertained distinguished guests today?
"Which bastard doesn't have eyesight? He didn't come out sooner or later, but he comes out now! If you can't come up with a reason in a while, let's see how I deal with you!" Gritting his teeth, he cursed secretly. He lifted his front skirt and trotted away.
Run towards the place where the sound came from.
Then, not long after waiting, Manager Hu, who had just left, ran back from the street again, but this time, his face was no longer white, but blue and purple.
"Sir, it's bad! They said someone is attacking the city outside the city!"
