The charming legitimate daughter is reborn, addicted to the abstinent prince's pampering

Li Ye and Zifeng looked at Zhao Bingcheng at the same time in disbelief.

Zhao Bingcheng suddenly became speechless.

How could a person from an official family with a noble status live in the same room as a lowly businessman who was full of money and was only interested in profit?

Just now, he was only worried about the risk of frostbite for them in the cold winter. He actually forgot about the huge difference in status between him and the two adults, and said something arrogant without thinking.

Zhao Bingcheng lowered his eyes cautiously and bowed to apologize:

"Common people should not make rash decisions, and I hope you two adults will not be surprised if you make a mistake."

Zhao Bingcheng's attitude was extremely low. This was a habit he had developed over many years of doing business. He was born as a businessman and could not help himself. In order to survive, he had to be cautious and make concessions in everything. It had long been engraved in his bones.

"You two adults have a good rest. The common people will leave now."

He kept his head lowered, and his hunched body seemed to be bent by a boulder of power. In the face of absolute power and status, he was useless. He had to be like a turtle, hiding in its shell immediately when in danger.

Li Ye saw all his anxiety and embarrassment, and a pair of frost-like eyes flashed with surprise.

He knew that Zhao Bingcheng had the shrewdness of a businessman and the caution of someone at the bottom, but he never thought that Zhao Bingcheng would humble himself in the dust when facing them.

The room was deathly silent, and Zhao Bingcheng could feel two pairs of eyes falling on him, making him feel like a ray of light on his back, fearing that his unscrupulous words would offend Li Ye and Zifeng.

Taking a step back, he turned around to leave when a pair of hands suddenly appeared and grabbed his wrist forcefully.

"Where is Shopkeeper Zhao going?"

Zhao Bingcheng raised his head, and Li Ye could clearly see the comfort in his eyes.

"There is no superior-subordinate relationship between an official and a businessman between you and me. This is Shopkeeper Zhao's room, and I have no intention of overshadowing the guest."

"And...I believe in the master's opinion, Shopkeeper Zhao is a great person among people, and he will definitely be respected by others in the future."

Zifeng was present and Li Ye didn't say anything clearly, but Zhao Bingcheng heard his pun.

Li Ye was hinting that if he completes the matters assigned by His Highness the Crown Prince, he will not only become a benchmark in the business world, but future generations will also enjoy the good news of participating in the imperial examination.

Li Ye secretly tightened his grip on Zhao Bingcheng's arm, determination flashing in his eyes.

"It's late at night. Shopkeeper Zhao should get some rest. We have to go on the road tomorrow."

After saying that, he let go of Zhao Bingcheng, moved his robe gently and lay down on the only soft bed in the room.

Zifeng glanced at him indifferently, then flew up to the beam with an indifferent expression. From this angle, he could have a panoramic view of everything in the house.

Zhao Bingcheng felt slightly relieved, knowing that he was overthinking it, and Master Li Ye did not look down upon him.

"Do you two adults need to leave a light on?"

"As you wish." The voice came from the beam.

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of internal energy popped out from Li Ye's fingertips, and the candle went out.

Zifeng: "..."

Zhao Bingcheng's mouth twitched, these two people sometimes acted like angry children.

He returned to his bed in the dark. After lying there for a while, he felt that he had forgotten something. When he recalled it carefully, he realized that he had forgotten to pee.

At this moment, he had no intention of peeing at all and was frightened back. However, in order to have a peaceful sleep, Zhao Bingcheng decided to go to the toilet.

He sat up, put on his shoes and tiptoed to the door.

"What are you doing?" Li Ye suddenly asked from behind.

Zhao Bingcheng was startled: "Uh...go...go to the toilet..."

"Oh...do you need me to accompany you?"

"Ah?" Zhao Bingcheng couldn't believe his ears. How old was he? He still needed someone to accompany him to the toilet?They are all men, which is very strange.

Li Ye may have discovered his random thoughts, and chuckled for the first time:

"I'm just worried that you will encounter the killer in black again."

Zhao Bingcheng chuckled awkwardly: "Ying, probably not."

As he said, he really didn't encounter the man in black this time, and he successfully solved his physical problems and went back to his room to sleep.

There was no words all night, and at dawn the next day, Zhao Bingcheng led the cloth shop owners to load the ducks, geese and down purchased by Jiang Yi onto the carriage.

The number of ducks, geese and feathers was too large, and the vehicles they brought were simply not enough, so they had to buy additional ones.

This trip bought more ducks and geese than in the previous city. It is roughly estimated that the number of ducks and geese purchased reached about [-].

Calculated based on the two kilograms of a duck and goose, ten thousand are equivalent to twenty thousand kilograms. If two horses and one cart can pull one thousand kilograms, then at least twenty carriages are needed.

It can be calculated from this that at least 300 horse-drawn carriages are needed to transport 150 million ducks and geese to the border, and the actual situation may be even more than this.

Zhao Bingcheng was responsible for all the money for buying cars and horses. He donated half of his net worth to cover the cost. However, 150 cars traveling on the road was too fast, so he had to spend a lot of money to hire bodyguards to escort him all the way.

When someone was curious about the origins of Li Ye and Zifeng, Zhao Bingcheng just said that he hired bodyguards, so no one would ask.

With Jiang Yi's assistance, Zhao Bingcheng was able to successfully complete the acquisition work in every city he visited, and it took only ten days to fully load 150 carriages.

At this point, the acquisition work has come to an end. The next step is to transport this batch of materials to the border, and then sew the winter clothes at the border to ensure everything is foolproof. Even if the news is leaked, there is no need to worry.

They went all the way north, and the weather got colder as they got closer to the border. The howling north wind blew up sand and dust like knives that cut their faces.

The distant mountains are gray and bare, a cold wind blows, and even the air is filled with the smell of sand.

They are five thousand miles away from Yong'an, and they can reach the border by traveling another thousand miles.

Zhao Chengcheng was riding a horse, but in just ten days he changed drastically.

When he left Yong'an, he was as elegant and fair as a teacher, but now his lips were peeled by the cold wind, his cheeks were red, and his eyes were bloodshot.

At this time, the proprietors of Buhang finally discovered something strange.

"Shopkeeper Zhao, didn't you say that the snow in the north froze a lot of cattle and sheep to death? It's cold on this road, but I didn't see any snow at all."

"That's right! We are about to reach the border pass if we continue forward. The war at the border pass is tense. If we are attacked by Mobei, wouldn't we be doomed?"

Zhao Bingcheng pointed straight ahead with a riding crop in his hand. His awe-inspiring posture made people feel solemn. He said decisively:

"Those who don't want to take risks can turn their horses around now. Those who want to make money, want to gain respect and not be reviled and are profit-seeking profiteers, just follow me."

Every word has a ringing sound, penetrating into everyone's ears.

Zhao Bingcheng rode forward, his cloak fluttering in the wind.

"Climbing the mountain ahead is not far from success."

The proprietors of the cloth shop were reluctant to go back, but at this point, they were unwilling to go back.

Everyone gritted their teeth and could only follow Zhao Bingcheng.

"Shopkeeper Zhao, if you don't tell us how to make money after climbing over this mountain, we won't agree."

The sound of horse hooves echoed fiercely in the mountains, and dust flew from far to near wherever they passed. Standing on the mountain and looking down, it looked like a long earth-colored dragon galloping towards us.

Entering the forest, Li Ye and Zifeng immediately sensed the danger and both guarded Zhao Bingcheng.

Looking around, there were people hiding behind every tree as far as the eye could see. When I saw large groups entering the mountain, they came out from behind the trees one after another.
