Situ Yan's reminder did not arouse Duanmu Xuan's suspicion, after all, he knew that Situ Yan knew the way of medicine. But I was still surprised in my heart, after all, at Situ Yan's age, the medical Tao was close to the realm of perfection, but it would lead people to reverie.

In fact, Duanmu Xuan was a little self-deceiving, covering his ears and stealing the bell, he would rather feel that all these practices of Situ Yan that were inconsistent with his age were due to the guidance of the masters behind his back, rather than delve into the general mystery of Situ Yan's existence. He was afraid, afraid that once he knew everything, Situ Yan would disappear out of thin air. He also didn't understand why he felt the way he did, but he trusted his instincts, so he chose to believe unconditionally.

"Yan'er, the matter of the Prince's Mansion needs to be secretly investigated after returning to Beijing! Since God has given me a chance, I will not let it slip away. It's just that these are some things in the court, Yan'er yearns for comfort and comfort, and there is no need to worry about us! Duanmu Xuan didn't want Situ Yan to be involved in the prince's matter, and Situ Yan himself was of course happy to have nothing to do. And she is only Duanmu Xuan's friend now, and when she fulfills her duties as a friend, she is worthy of her heart. As for whether she will be needed in the future, it depends on the friendship between the two.

"It's just that the yellow-haired merchant, will he really be willing to do that firearms business with you after dawn? If there is that firearm, there is one in the Guogong Mansion, and I don't think it's easy to use, I don't think it's as handy as the knife on Yan'er's body! "It's not Duanmu Xuan's exaggeration, he really thinks so.

"I also saw that thing from the master, and the master also taught some skills, although it is not as good as a sword, but I can get used to it if I use it more. And it's easy to attack from a distance, and it's very lethal, and it's used by multiple people. The power will be greatly increased! Regarding the use of firearms, Situ Yan couldn't explain more to Duanmu Xuan, and when she got this thing in her hands, she didn't mind teaching Duanmu Xuan how to use it.

"As for the merchant, he will definitely do business with us! We just looked for him today, and when we entered the night, there was a big case in the Yangzhou Mansion, with such a movement outside. He won't be unaware, and he will associate it with more or less, so he doesn't have to be afraid. As long as he has doubts in his heart, he will naturally find us! Moreover, the opium paste that the ink guards got back would make him even more impossible. Unless he really doesn't want to come to Wu again! Situ Yan believed. Businessmen are profitable. will not easily give up such a big business partner as Wu Guo, and this partner is still doing the most profitable business with him.

"But this opium hurts people so much, so let it be traded, for fear that it will shake the country's foundation?" No matter how free and easy Duanmu Xuan is, he is the prince of the Guogong Mansion after all, and he has the relationship of the seven princes, and it is easy to get out.

"I can't touch the opium until I get my firearms. Otherwise, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to do business, and if I scare away the yellow-haired businessman again. I don't know how long I'll have to wait to find it again! "Situ Yan is not forbidden, but the time has not come.

"Okay, just listen to Yan'er, it's not too early at this time, Yan'er might as well go to bed and rest first, recuperate!" Duanmu Xuan saw that Situ Yan's eyes were slightly black and blue, and he was a little worried about her body.

"Okay, I'll take a nap first!" Situ Yan really felt a little tired, and she traveled for more than half a month, and went to the merchant without much rest when she arrived. In the second half of the night, she became a thief back to Jiangyang, although her small body was stronger than when she first returned to Beijing, she was still a little unbearable.

Duanmu Xuan lightly covered the corner of the quilt for Situ Yan, and did not leave, but sat on the couch not far from her, he had too many things to sort out in his heart, and the Yangzhou prefect was still arresting people everywhere, and he didn't want these people to disturb Situ Yan's good dreams.

Situ Yan didn't sleep for too long, so she waited for news from Adrian. The group boarded the cargo ship again.

"Distinguished guests, beautiful young lady, I have been waiting for the two of you! Come in! Adrian thought for a night, the biggest profit he made every time he sailed was this opium, and if he couldn't sell it in Wu, then his loss would be huge. But after all, I don't want to be willingly controlled by others like this, and inviting Situ Yan and Duanmu Xuan on the boat today is also a temptation. even moved to kill the two of them.

"The cabin is small and stuffy, so it's better to sit in the tea house in the distance!" Who is Situ Yan, how could she let herself be in danger. And Duanmu Xuan didn't take this yellow-haired merchant in his eyes at all, he firmly believed that his sword must be faster than the firearm.

"This~!" Adrian hesitated for a moment, and even felt as if his plan had been guessed all of a sudden, and looked at Situ Yan, his face was calm, and he didn't even see any waves in his eyes. This is also the place he can't understand and see through the most. This little oriental girl can't even see through him.

People are like this, the more they encounter things or people that they don't understand and can't see through, the more they will feel that they are unfathomable. The more she guesses, Situ Yan wants this effect, in fact, too many times, she is just calm and confused.

"What? Could it be that Mr. Adrian was in a hurry to let us into the cabin, what was the preparation! Hongmen banquet this kind of banquet, I am not used to eating a rough person! Adrian didn't understand Situ Yan's words, but he mentioned Mo Feng and Mo Yu, and the two pressed their hands on their swords and took two steps closer to Adrian.

The two of them were all bloody and murderous, and Adrian had suppressed them to the ground with just one shot yesterday. Seeing the two of them like this, Adrian was even more convinced that his plan had been seen through by Situ Yan, so he had to put on a smiling face again and disembark with Duanmu Xuan and his party.

Although the tea house is simple, it is still early in the morning, and there is no one drinking tea, but it is also a quiet place.

"Distinguished guest, I'm just an ordinary hurtful person, this ship full of sailors, only equipped with a few firearms, what you want, I really can't get as a small businessman?" Even if Adrian is controlled by others everywhere, he still has to fight for himself.

Situ Yan smiled silently, tapped her fingers on the tabletop, and even turned her face directly to the side, that is, she didn't answer the question or say anything more. Tell the other party that this is not the answer she wants. It is also a reminder that her patience is limited. ”

"Distinguished guest, I think you must have misunderstood. Opium, in the great French Empire, was also forbidden. I'm just an ordinary businessman, I wouldn't dare to sell that kind of thing? Adrian saw that Situ Yan did not have evidence that he was peddling opium, after all, that thing had been taken away by the government, and now there was nothing on the ship. And he also knows how the official yamen strictly prohibits. After all, it is not once or twice to do this business with the prefect of Yangzhou.

Situ Yan still repeated the previous action, but gave Mo Feng a look between her side eyes.

Mo Feng put the things in his arms in front of Adrian, and he didn't say a word. And he retreated to the side.

Adrian only glanced at it. I jumped out of my chair in fright. Even if he didn't look at the contents of this package, he knew what it was.

"You~! Where did you come from? He was so frightened that he spoke French directly.

"Mr. Adrian, what's wrong? But not feeling well? There are countless good doctors in Wu Guo, and even Miss Ben is slightly proficient. Why don't you let me take your pulse? Of course, Situ Yan understood Adrian's question, but Duanmu Xuan was there at this time, and she didn't want to reveal that she understood French. The most taboo thing in front of the enemy is to play all the hole cards.

"Ahh It's just under it, it's okay under the body! Adrian only then realized that his actions were a little too aggressive. He hasn't looked yet. He had jumped up from his chair, and now he was powerless to justify himself. I had to resign myself to my fate and sit back.

"Distinguished guest, even in this heavenly pilgrimage country, this firearms trade is a forbidden thing, I wonder how the guests want to trade?" Although he was led by Situ Yan, Adrian still had to die and struggle.

"You sell something, I give money, and the money is paid! As for how I ship it away. How to get the customs clearance documents from the government has nothing to do with you! Adrian's last hope was gone. He had nothing to do with this mysterious little oriental girl. After all, all his goods were sold to the Yangzhou prefect, and now they can appear in Situ Yan's hands, which can only prove that Situ Yan and his party did not take the government in their eyes at all. Moreover, there was a big commotion in Yangzhou City last night, and the total phenomenon confirmed that Situ Yan's background was strong and mysterious.

"Okay, but the price of firearms?" Adrian has been riding a tiger, but since he wants to do it, then he has to maximize his interests.

"Gold, silver, pearls, jade, cloth and porcelain, barter, money for things. But if Mr. Adrian wants to open his mouth in front of me, he should be excused, you waste your lips and tongues, and I am tired of what I said! I recognize it, and I know its price! "Where would Situ Yan know the current price of this thing, but the more mysterious she is, the more Adrian really believes that Situ Yan knows.

"Hey!" He sighed deeply, and even became a little decadent for a moment, "Distinguished guest, you are really a master of business, I, Adrian, followed my grandfather to run a merchant ship when I was ten years old, but I have never met such a shrewd merchant to you!" ”

"Thanks for the compliment! Children of the rivers and lakes, just eat with a mouthful! ”

"Well, ammunition is not valuable, but this firearm, one will cost 100 gold coins, and I have to clear the customs, long-distance transportation, the sea is dangerous, in case of another situation, such a large number of goods may sink to the bottom of the sea. So if one is less than one hundred and fifty gold coins, I won't do it! Adrian stabilized his mind and started a price offensive and defensive battle with Situ Yan.

Situ Yan thought for a while, this gold coin is not a gold ingot, and one hundred and fifty coins is not expensive, but she still pretended to be displeased, and even her lips were pursed, and her eyes were cold, looking like a sharp blade out of the sheath, piercing Adrian's sword.

"Good! You are full of sincerity, I will drop a little more, one hundred and thirty, absolutely no less. Distinguished guests, mutual benefit can last in this business, you can't let me make a loss-making deal, right? Duanmu Xuan had been watching Situ Yan bargain with the yellow-haired merchant. Seeing that Situ Yan didn't say a word, she asked the other party to reduce twenty gold coins, and she had another trace of admiration.

"Anyway, business often comes and goes, so let's pay this price for the first time! A hundred can only be more, not less. In the future, there will be more exchanges, and Mr. Adrian will have to give a discounted price! Situ Yan thought that this was the case, if she really forced this Adrian to break up, then she really didn't know where to find such a businessman.

"Good! Just this fixed money? Adrian was afraid that Situ Yan would not be able to pay the money after the goods arrived, so he would lose a lot of money.

"Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, as for the fixed money, I will give the things on this table to Mr. as a fixed money!" Just kidding, how could it be possible to ask her for money before the goods arrived? And she believed that Adrian would agree to her suggestion as long as he continued to want to do the opium business.

"This! Distinguished guest, you want to be a hundred, with my financial resources can not pay at all, do you think you can pay some money first? "Businessmen are suspicious, even if they are controlled by others, they must have more protection, in case Situ Yan can't afford it, and he has the intention of killing people and selling more goods, he really can't see through Situ Yan, and he will inevitably have this worry.

"Mr. Adrian is afraid that I can't afford it, right? You can rest assured! Situ Yan pretended to touch the silver ticket from her body, but took out a large handful of silver tickets from the ring and put them on the table.

"The silver ticket of Huitong Silver Building, one 10,000 taels, there are more than a dozen here, and I am in a bit of a hurry to go out today, and that's all I have with me!" If it weren't for the abundant financial resources, how could anyone go out with a silver ticket of more than 100,000 taels, even the Yangzhou prefect would not have been so arrogant as Situ Yan. Adrian really believes that Situ Yan doesn't want to eat black with black. If Situ Yan knew that she could succeed, she would have to thank the Yangzhou prefect, I don't know if she would laugh. After all, in order to make private offerings to the prince, the prefect used the silver tickets of the silver building, not the official tickets.

"Okay, deal!" Adrian resigned himself to signing an agreement with Situ Yan, this thing is really useless, after all, neither of them knows the true identity of the other party, at most it can only be used as a voucher to pick up the goods.

As for the specific delivery date and other details, the two discussed it a little again, and then they left. After all, France is too far away from the Central Plains, and it takes at least a year to go back and forth, so Situ Yan has no other way but to wait. Originally, the business was negotiated, Situ Yan wanted to entertain Adrian, but Duanmu Xuan looked disgusted, and she was afraid that Adrian's etiquette would touch Duanmu Xuan's taboo again and lose her life, then she would lose a lot. In her opinion, as long as it is what she wants, if she doesn't get it, it will be a loss.

Back at the inn, Duanmu Xuan looked at Situ Yan with some puzzlement, "Then Huang Mao really dares to bring goods to trade without receiving the fixed silver?" ”

"That opium is the best silver, he does not understand us, it means that he is in the light, and we are in the dark. And as long as he wants to do this opium business for a day, he can only be subject to me! Actually, I just used some tricks to sing out of the empty city! Situ Yan suddenly felt that this opium was a drug to others, but the benefits to her outweighed the disadvantages.

"This matter has been settled, and the matter of the Yangzhou Mansion has also been investigated, when does Yan'er plan to leave?"

"Set off in three days, ten miles away, I haven't appreciated it yet, how can I be willing to go back like this!"

"Yes, that's exactly what I wanted!" This is also the biggest purpose of Duanmu Xuan's trip, and he is of course very happy to hear that Situ Yan is willing to travel with him.

"Brother Xuan hasn't slept all night, it's better to take advantage of this moment to rest first, and then we will go out in the afternoon!"

"Good!" The two looked at each other and smiled, and then went back to rest. (To be continued......)
