In this era of war, the army has supreme real power, especially when dealing with small merchants in the margins and suburbs.
Materials like medicines can be paid without paying any penny as long as the officer is willing to do so. If you want to dig deeper, the destiny that will be welcomed by the merchants will be destroyed.
This is the case in the war era, the army has supreme power, especially in the winter city of the nobles.
Therefore, when he heard Xuan Jie's words, the father and son were in a heavy mood and their faces were a little bad.
Immediately under the leadership, Xuan Jie checked the types of medicines in the warehouse and then took a look at two types of medicines for treating injuries.
One is an internal application and the other is external use. What is missing on the battlefield is healing medicine, so I plan to prepare some in private.
He told the boss to let the goods at the city gate three days later, so he led his subordinates to leave the Yaohu.
Since A Cai did not find his identity, Xuan Jie did not intend to be exposed so soon.
After Mengya and his father sent the army away, they couldn't help but show their sad faces.
"Father, what the chief just said was...Get! Are you not going to give the money?"
"Oh, you and Lanna will prepare later and try to store some of the goods you ordered just now to reduce the losses."
After Lanna heard the sound, she approached with Madeline, which is her mother.
"Duke, I don't look like that kind of person just now. Besides, this batch of injury medicine has been a bit long, so why not send it to them in the whole trip."
"Yes, yes, he reached out to pull me up just now..."
The mother and daughter had almost no say, and the seemingly reasonable words were denied by the head of the family, Duke.
"What do you know? They didn't even give a deposit. Since this is the case, I definitely can't put it all in. I would rather rot in the warehouse than be cheaper than these guys!"
His tone was very angry, as if he had found this batch of goods, he was destined to receive less than a cent. The mother and daughter looked at each other and refused to persuade each other.
After leaving the Medicine House, Xuan Jie became familiar with the teams who went to support Black Bear Mountain and the situation within the Pioneer Knights for three days.
Since I don’t like meeting, I understand through documents and written forms, so I have to meet a few people.
In order to make Xuan Jie integrate into it as soon as possible, Kelly even held a farewell party for him the night before leaving, so that all the big names in the city could hear the new name.
"Strange, when did the Pioneer Knights have a deputy commander named Xuan Jie? Is it because our news is too behind?"
"I don't know, but it must be related to the matter of going to support Black Bear Mountain tomorrow. This trip will definitely be a life-and-death death!"
"There is no way, who made Black Bear Mountain the last barrier? If the demons break through our Winter City, it will definitely be difficult to protect ourselves."
During the banquet, the protagonist did not attend, but just drank lightly at the remote wine table.
He had already reminded Kelly not to make any rituals such as speeches, and to say something when he came back.
It was precisely because we couldn't see the main owner that everyone turned their curiosity to the founder of the banquet.
"Captain Kelly, why didn't he see the deputy commander who came back from the border town?"
The person who spoke was a woman in a banquet uniform. Although she was middle-aged, her figure had not diminished and was still one of the highlights of the banquet.
"It's really a coincidence that Minister Mia may have to meet him at the departure ceremony tomorrow. He felt dizzy after drinking two glasses of wine and went back to rest. Why didn't your general's niece Qili come to the banquet without a favor?
”
As a person who has been in the officialdom for many years, Kelly casually put aside the topic and asked Mia, the Minister of the Human Resources Department of the Military Affairs Department, to solve his confusion.
"Didn't Commander Kelly say just now that he will set out to assist Black Bear Mountain tomorrow. Lier is preparing for the procuratorate."
Both sides said one by one, and their words entered Xuan Jie's ears sitting in the corner, but they failed to cause any reaction.
He had no interest in these things, and it was precisely this that allowed Kelly to stand in front.
After drinking two more glasses of wine, he got up and left the banquet hall, took off his mask and walked slowly towards Beixi Medicine House.
Since we were going to go to war, we would have been unable to meet for a long time, so we thought about going to tell A Cai separately.
But when passing through the suburban streets, I stood under the yellow light and heard familiar voices.
"Alan, come here quickly, these hair accessories look so good!"
"Okay! I'll buy some flowers and go there!"
A Cai? How could they be here so late?
Looking at A Cai wearing a pink long skirt and tying her hair, Xuan Jie couldn't help but walk to the sales card stall until another figure appeared.
"A Cai, I think this pink star pattern is very suitable for you. Come on, let me bring it to see if it fits."
A Cai originally wanted to refuse, but Mengya went straight to the past and reached out to hold her head.
"No, no, right! I'll go see Lan..."
Before he could finish his words, A Cai was attracted by a familiar and dangerous aura.
This anger is...Ajie!
She hurriedly looked towards Xuan Jie, and the two of them had their eyes intersected.
At this time, Xuan Jie slowly approached her, and this time even Meng Ya's sight was attracted.
"Oh, isn't this A Cai's friend? Do you still have the money to come here to go shopping?"
He directly crossed him to hold A Cai's wrist, but before he could walk a few steps, A Cai shook Xuan Jie's hand away because of surprise.
"Ajie, what's wrong with you? We're just shopping..."
Xuan Jie raised his hand to stop A Cai from talking. The atmosphere was extremely solemn. This was the first time he had made such a move in anger.
"It doesn't matter, you have sufficient freedom and do whatever you want. I don't have the right to stop you.
I came here just to tell you that I will follow the army to the front line tomorrow, which will take a long time, but I think... this move should be an extravagant move!"
The atmosphere at this time was already solemn in the tone of the conversation. A Cai was at a loss and wanted to hold Xuan Jie, but what he touched was a phantom.
Xuan Jie did not continue to talk, and immediately turned around and disappeared under the cover of the crowd.
"Hey! Was that Ajie just now? Why didn't he ask him to go shopping with us?"
Lanna looked at the crowd and walked over, holding two bouquets of flowers in her hand.
She handed the bunch to A Cai but she didn't reach out to pick it up. Her eyes were full of worry and anxiety filled her heart.
She is different from ordinary people. She is not worried about the dangers on the battlefield, but the things that just happened may make Xuan Jie burst into a murderous aura.
Meng Ya walked over at this time, gritted her teeth and complained angrily: "That bastard was yelling at A Cai just now! And he ignored me! Do you really think of yourself as a god?"
"How is it possible? How could they quarrel when they meet with such a good relationship?"
"What am I lying to you? Look at A Cai's current expression, and the stall owner has also seen it."
After that, A Cai didn't speak and was always very depressed.
It was only at this time that Lanna believed her brother's words and comforted A Cai all the way and told her not to be sad.
At night, one person stood in the house and looked at the moon through the window, and the other person lay on the roof tiles at the top of the Pioneer Group's office tower, bathed in the moonlight.
Late at night, the two were destined to sleepless tonight.
The next day, before the sun rose, the city gate became noisy, with people coming and going, but more were soldiers.
Today there will be 20,000 soldiers here to go to Black Bear Mountain to support the battle against the demons.
The queen appointed a practicing officer to see off for the aid army.
Logically speaking, as the team inspector, Xuan Jie, deputy commander of the Pioneer Knights, was going to receive the lecture, but he brought the Pioneer's people to the door in advance to wait.
Although some subordinates came to remind him, Xuan Jie refused them all. His order was that everyone would set up a square array to leave themselves in the middle.
The reason for doing this is to hinder A Cai's vision. Even if she knows that Xuan Jie is helpless here, she has no choice.
Because there is another order that prohibits anyone from approaching the military formation.
No matter where Xuan Jie goes, the square matrix will follow it and then convert it to a new queue according to the terrain.
Delin brought half of the medicines in the warehouse and had been waiting under the banyan tree in the designated area.
Seeing the vanguard military formation coming over, they were sweating coldly in their hands.
"Dear sirs, this is the medicine you need. Since we are working together for the first time, the price is 20% off..."
Before Delin could finish his words tremblingly, the cavalry surrounded the big banyan tree under Xuan Jie's instructions. The father and son were so scared that they knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Sir, we are so rude! If we don't take any penny of these medicines, we will give our filial piety to the country!"
They lowered their heads and kept screaming, saying words begging for mercy.
Xuan Jie rode his war horse to them, dismounted and checked the goods, and threw a purse to the adjutant.
"Prepare the price of the medicine, and then bring people to distribute the wounded medicine to every brother. I will do my best to bring you back from the battlefield!"
As he said that, he rode his horse back into the team and the encirclement was also withdrawn.
Lanna, who was blocked outside, hurried over with Acai.
"Father, are you okay! They really didn't give money... Hum?"
Mengya hurried over to cover Lanna's mouth because the adjutant was still standing next to him with his purse.
"What are you talking about? Haven't you seen this military master reconciling with his father?"
Lanna pushed his hand away and wiped her mouth with her sleeves, "Brother, why does it smell strange on your hands? And... your pants seem..."
A Cai was looking for Xuan Jie's traces from beginning to end, but as Xuan Jie expected, no matter how she sensed, she only knew that Xuan Jie was in the square formation.
Ajie... Are you so unwilling to see me? You have been hiding in the military formation...
Although she felt helpless, there was no way. Xuan Jie never came out of the military formation.
Not long after, the sun emerged from the top of the ice peaks in the distance, and the crimson light brought warmth to people.
It was also at this time that large troops rushed out from the city gate in an orderly manner.
The two people walking in front on horseback were Bo Gu, the eldest son of the Lien family, who served as the general commander of the aid.
The deputy commander was Qili, who was Mia's niece and had previously served in the city defense force.
