Chapter 867 Some Pressure
When Zhou Shiyue and Lu Zhaoling left the city, Lu Song was already waiting outside the city gate.
Shopkeeper Lu and his family also came to see us off.
Shopkeeper Lu brought over a huge bundle.
It's really huge.
He held it in his arms, obviously struggling.
"Miss Lu, this is a small gift from our family, please accept it."
They were all very grateful to Lu Zhaoling for rescuing Lu Song.
Lu Song also told his eldest brother that this time Miss Lu not only saved him, but also averted a disaster in Southwest City, and their family should also bear this kindness.
As Shopkeeper Lu and his family came along, they saw the people coming and going around them, and they were thinking in their hearts -
The people only know how to live an ordinary life like this day after day, and are completely unaware of the major events behind it.
On the other hand, those bigwigs who hold power and can change the situation at any time may ignore the fact that there are so many people like ants in the midst of the storm, who will be sad or happy, live or die depending on their words or decisions.
Therefore, whether the people are safe and happy depends entirely on those in power.
They were very fortunate to have met Prince Jin and Miss Lu, and from now on they prayed that Prince Jin and Miss Lu would be safe and sound, and that they could help and protect more people in the future.
"Shopkeeper Lu, you are too polite. It's really not necessary." Lu Zhaoling said.
“They’re not worth anything.”
Shopkeeper Lu quickly pushed the baggage onto the carriage.
"Here is some cut yellow paper, some cinnabar, and a few pens. Miss Lu, please see if you can use them."
"There are also a few pairs of rabbit fur gloves and knee pads that my wife and daughter made for me. It's cold, so don't let them get cold."
"We have some southwestern food here. Heat it up before eating. This old man knows how to do it. Just order him around when the time comes."
Shopkeeper Lu explained everything one by one, while Mrs. Lu and daughter Lu Xiaomeng followed and nodded from time to time.
Zhou Shiyue listened to what Shopkeeper Lu said, and suddenly said nonchalantly, "The cinnabar sold in your shop is too ordinary. Go back to find Captain Su and ask him to take you to see a manager of a mining area. You can buy cinnabar from him in the future."
As soon as he said this, Lu Song's eyes lit up.
He knew too well the difference between good and bad cinnabar, especially after learning three talismans from Lu Zhaoling and Yin Yunting last night.
But the Lu family shop really doesn’t have any good purchasing channels.
In the past, he had never been able to get in touch with the people in the mining area. In the past, those people had their eyes on their foreheads. If he wanted to buy from them, he didn't know in advance how big a bite of meat he would have to give them.
In that case, cinnabar would have to be sold at a very high price.
The Lu brothers were reluctant.
"I estimate that within a year or two, Xuanmen will grow stronger and more people will draw talismans. At that time, your business will be better. Not only will we have several qualities of cinnabar, but also yellow paper, copper coins, magic tools and the like. You can stock up on them while the prices are low now."
"If you have anything to say, you can go find Captain Su. If you can't find him, just find the guy named Lu Yuan in the barracks and ask him to pass on the message."
Zhou Shiyue's expression became more serious and he said "but".
"But, be careful when selling things. Although you may not be able to tell whether a customer is good or evil, you should be more careful. If you find that the other party is an evil cultivator, sell less things to them."
Zhou Shiyue now hates evil cultivators very much.
After hearing this, Shopkeeper Lu's palms began to sweat and he became nervous.
"Your Highness's meaning is that if you can avoid letting the other party find out something is wrong, for example, you can use the excuse that the goods have been sold out, or if you have top-grade cinnabar, don't sell it to him, and use the lower-grade cinnabar to deal with it."
Lu Zhaoling came to his rescue and gave him a feasible solution.
"Of course, if you really encounter an evil cultivator, the most important thing for you is to protect your own safety. Don't offend the other party. If necessary, wait until the other party leaves and then secretly report to the authorities. You can even secretly throw a small piece of paper to remind them when reporting to the authorities."
"After all, if an evil cultivator wants to harm someone, he has thousands of ways to do it, and he can do it without anyone noticing."
Shopkeeper Lu nodded hurriedly.
"I understand. I will definitely remember what the prince and Miss Lu said."
Lu Zhaoling thought about it, and asked Qingyin to take out paper, pen and cinnabar, and draw a talisman.
She draws very quickly.
Just as the things were taken out, Shopkeeper Lu and Lu Song knew that she wanted to draw a talisman. When they were still wondering why she suddenly wanted to draw a talisman, Lu Zhaoling had already finished drawing it.
This time, Lu Song still couldn't see clearly.
But when Fu Cheng and the golden light appeared, he felt the extremely strong power of this talisman.
“This is a sensor talisman.”
Lu Zhaoling handed the talisman to Shopkeeper Lu.
"When you go back, find a small bell, remove the bell core, put the talisman in a small sachet or small cloth beads and hang it on the bell, then you can hang it by the door."
"Evil cultivators will have an evil aura on their bodies. Once they pass under the bell, the bell will shake slightly. This way you can tell what kind of person they are."
Lu Song's eyes lit up and he was deeply moved.
"Ms. Lu, such a talisman is so precious, this..."
Even if Shopkeeper Lu didn't understand talismans, he knew how rare the talisman was after hearing what they said. Moreover, this was equivalent to giving them an early warning. If the person coming in was an evil cultivator, they would have to be careful!
Shopkeeper Lu was thinking that if an evil cultivator really came into the shop, he would immediately send his wife and daughter upstairs and take care of them himself to prevent them from having any accidents.
Then this talisman is really precious!
He quickly took out the banknotes from his pocket.
Today he wants to see Lu Song off, and he gave all his money to Lu Song. Now he is very worried that the remaining fifty taels of silver notes may not be enough.
Before the banknote was taken out, Lu Zhaoling said, "Lü Song is going to follow us to the north, and we will need his help, so this talisman will be his reward."
"Take it." Zhou Shiyue said lightly.
Shopkeeper Lu, who had originally wanted to refuse, suddenly did not dare to refuse anymore. He quickly took it and thanked Lu Zhaoling again and again.
The sound of horse hooves came.
Captain Su also came to see them off with a few soldiers.
As soon as Prince Jin saw him, he held his forehead with his hand.
"Yi Yi, go deal with him."
Everything that needed to be said had been said in the military camp, including how to find the military advisor. Lu Zhaoling had calculated that the military advisor was not dead, but had been knocked unconscious and sent to a small town to fend for himself.
I didn’t find it back, maybe because the blow to my brain made me a little dizzy.
Fortunately, the person has been found and his memory will be restored if he is well taken care of.
With a military advisor, Captain Su would have someone to help him manage the military camp. As for making him a general, he had to wait for the imperial decree from the capital.
Now that everything has been said, what is Captain Su still doing here?
"Your Highness, Miss Lu, we will give you a ride." Captain Su said loudly.
