After sending Hai Tianyi, Hai Tianyue and Zhao Dan away, the sky had already darkened slightly.

Jing Mingli ran to Mrs. Jing excitedly, talked about the experience of the reward, and handed over a hundred taels of gold to Mrs. Jing at once, and said: "Grandma, with all this money in our family, life will be better, and we don't have to look at other people's eyes to beg for a living!" ”

Mrs. Jing was much older, she gently patted Jing Mingli's shoulder, and said earnestly: Mingli girl, don't thank your sister, without her, how can you get the reward of the prince! ”

Jing Mingli flattened her mouth disdainfully, and was just about to argue, when she saw the eyes of the old lady Jing handing her over, she quickly swallowed the words on her lips, came to Jing Xiaotian with a smile, and said, "Sister, it's good to have you, we can still see the prince and get such a reward!" ”

"It's all the result of your own efforts, it has nothing to do with me, since you have all this money, you don't want to come here again in the future! Of course, if you want to see the king of Zhennan, I will send Ma Qin to take you there directly, which can be regarded as a sisterhood. ”

After Jing Xiaotian finished speaking, he yawned long and said, "I've been busy all day today, and I'm really tired." Tomorrow morning, I won't send it when you go back. ”

As he spoke, he got up and left, Jing Mingli's smiling face disappeared in an instant, and he stared at Jing Xiaotian's back with resentment, and gritted his teeth fiercely!

The news that the king of Zhennan came to inspect the Ziyang Territory quickly reached Haitian Ao's ears, and he was keenly aware that this Haitian was clearly swearing sovereignty!

Hai Tianyi's attitude is becoming tougher and tougher, and he is afraid that a head-to-head confrontation will come soon.

Haitianao pondered for a long time and decided to retreat and avoid Haitianyi's edge.

So, he asked Hai Tianjiao to return to Shilan City for the time being, meet with his mother, discuss countermeasures, and make comprehensive arrangements, in order to completely destroy Hai Tianyi with one blow.

However, in Jing Xiaotian's view, the arrival of King Zhennan is not so much an honor as a kind of investigation.

As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, Jing Xiaotian's achievements in the Ziyang Territory in the past six months are obvious to all, and they have long been spread on the grassland through the word of mouth of the slaves.

Everyone said that she was a money rake, and wherever she went, she would turn a straw stick into gold bars when she got into her hands!

At the beginning, Jing Xiaotian was quite complacent, but slowly he felt that it was not a taste, and if he continued like this, he was afraid that the rafters would rot first.

Just when she was thinking about it, King Zhennan had already come to Ziyang's territory in person and found out her family background.

Jing Xiaotian's heart only rang at this time, and she suddenly understood why Zhao Dan told her not to put all her eggs in the same basket.

It's not too late to make amends.

After a night of tossing and turning, Jing Xiaotian decided to transfer his property immediately.

The next day, as soon as dawn Jing Xiaotian called Ma Qin in, saying that he had been in this territory for almost half a year and wanted to check the accounts.

Ma Qin hurriedly handed over the neatly bound account book to Jing Xiaotian.

Jing Xiaotian looked at the neat handwriting on the account book, and couldn't help asking, "Who kept this account?" ”

"Back to the lord, it was written down by the slave himself, and the sum is not bad, and the silver is well sealed and stored in the treasury! You can always check it out! ”

Jing Xiaotian couldn't help but glance at Ma Qin again, she knew that Ma Qin was capable, but she didn't expect his financial quotient to be so high, in half a year, he actually earned 30,000 taels of silver for the territory, Jing Xiaotian simply felt that he was mistaken!

And he was illiterate in the past, but in such a short period of time, he actually learned to write and keep accounts, this person is really a rare talent.

Jing Xiaotian had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but he was silent on the surface, and just said, "Okay, let's go to the warehouse now to inspect the silver." ”

On the way, Jing Xiaotian chatted with Ma Qin for the first time about his life experience, and then he learned that Ma Qinzu was originally a native of Xiyue Country and a business family, and he became a slave only because he was captured, and he himself was born in Andai Country and was a so-called family slave.

When Ma Qin talked about this, his tone was very calm, as if he was telling someone else's story, but Jing Xiaotian was embarrassed.

Asked if Ma Qin's parents are still there?

Ma Qin smiled with relief: "How can a slave have parents, life and death are attached to the master!" ”

When Jing Xiaotian heard this, he immediately said emotionally: "You don't have to be so pessimistic, I will return your freedom now, from now on, you are a free person, you can go anywhere you want, do what you like, marry a wife and have children, and you don't have to be bound by me anymore!"

When Ma Qin heard this, he immediately knelt down and said with tears streaming down his face: "Lord, are you trying to drive me away?" The Purple Sun Territory is my home, the paradise of my dreams, where can I go? Having to meet a master like the Purple Sun Lord is a blessing that I have cultivated for several lifetimes, does the lord want me to cut out my heart to show you?"

"Alright, alright, whatever you want, I've already given you freedom anyway, but if you like to stay here, just stay here, I'll give you some silver every year!"

"My life is the lord's, what do I want to do with the silver!" Ma Qin protested loudly.

Isn't freedom the most precious thing? Isn't money the most intimate thing? Jing Xiaotian originally wanted to use these things to express her gratitude, but it scared Ma Qin, the mind of a slave, she really didn't understand.

So, quickly shut your mouth and stopped making a sound.

After a slight sound of unlocking, Ma Qin pushed open a thick wooden door, and in the room, there were rows of tightly closed wooden boxes, Ma Qin held a horse lamp, opened a box, and the white silver instantly appeared in front of Jing Xiaotian's eyes.

Jing Xiaotian was dizzy for a while, and he hurriedly squeezed his eyes, and took a closer look, the silver was still there. Then I quietly picked my palms with my nails, and it hurt!

Jing Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, this is really not a dream!

After clearing his dry throat, Jing Xiaotian spoke: "Ma Qin, who knows about this money and this account?" ”

"Back to the lord, only you know!" Ma Qin said and was about to leave the house.

"Oh, what a sensible man." Jing Xiaotian was happy when he heard it, and immediately praised it.

"Thank you, lord, for the compliment."

"From now on, I don't know about this matter, you hurry up and think of a way to transport this silver to the Lin family's old mansion and hand it over to Ah Zhong. Then, gather more cloth, salt tea and other things, winter is coming in a blink of an eye, we must store the materials for winter, save time, so that these people are starving and cold! ”

Jing Xiaotian said.

"Yes, the minion will do it." Ma Qin immediately responded.
