Chapter 1366 - Chapter 1366 Chapter 1165 Living Legend_1
Chapter 1366: Chapter 1165: Living Legend_1 Chapter 1366: Chapter 1165: Living Legend_1 Niu Dacheng was an uncultured brute who rose to become a general in Yuhu Prefecture solely through his own martial prowess. He was easy-going, with a generous spirit akin to Fan Linong’s.
He took a particular interest in Qiao Xiaomai.
Yuhu, being coastal yet mostly hilly and having little arable land, was never affluent and lagged economically,
Under such circumstances, the inventions Qiao Xiaomai had come up with greatly enriched the local folks’ entertainment life, from Tricycles and bicycles to playing Dou Dizhu and Mahjong–he loved them all.
As for food, he was also fond of vermicelli and tofu, which were inexpensive and delicious, greatly improving and enhancing the people’s lives.
Whether it was food or entertainment, all were the work of Qiao Xiaomai; this girl was incredible!
A living legend!
Qiao Xiaomai “…”
A living legend?
Niu Dacheng laughed heartily, his laughter resonating warmly as he kept praising her, “Really, many people speak of you this way now. A lot of us in Yuhu want to meet you!”
Niu Dacheng’s attitude was sincere and passionate, something Xiaomai was particularly weak against, and after several gloomy days, her mood finally cleared, “Once the Tianlong Gang is settled, I’ll make a visit to the Prefecture City.”
“You must take a good look around, especially in Yuhu. You are smart; perhaps you could give us some advice on getting rich,” Niu Dacheng said. “You might not realize, Miss Qiao, but our Yuhu is poor; aside from dried fish, we don’t have any special products. It’s rare for you to come by, so please help our people here.”
Hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai felt a heavy burden on her shoulders, with hopes of prosperity resting on her, and she felt overwhelmed.
“I will have to see the local situation. General Niu, you can’t hold too high expectations. The things I’ve come up with before were just flukes, I’m not as smart as you think.”
Niu Dacheng responded with a hearty laugh, waving his hand, “No pressure. It would be great if it leads to riches, but it’s no problem if it doesn’t. We’ve been poor for so many years; we’re used to it.”
“Well, after we deal with the Tianlong Gang, I’ll make sure to wander around the prefecture.” Niu Dacheng took a step back, and Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help thinking of shouldering that burden again.
The seaside…
The sea was rich in resources; there should be a way to get rich.
Overjoyed by her response, Niu Dacheng couldn’t help but laugh heartily again, “Don’t worry, Miss Qiao. When the time comes, I will personally take you and Lord Tong around. I know this place like the back of my hand!”
And so it was decided.
Qiao Xiaomai continued her journey, inquiring about the specific conditions of Yupo Prefecture, and Niu Dacheng spared no detail in their pleasant conversations.
This scene did not sit well with Yang Ye, and jealousy began to bubble up inside him.
She could get along with such a rough man amiably, yet she showed him cold disdain–it was unacceptable double standards!
He was a prince!
He must have been too accommodating before, leading to Xiaomai’s complete lack of fear of him; from now on, he had to be more serious!
With this mindset, Yang Ye kept a stern face throughout the trip. Niu Dacheng, oblivious to his moods, happily chatted away with Xiaomai, who couldn’t be bothered to pay him any attention. Amid this odd atmosphere, the main force finally arrived at Ningwu County.
Tong Sanlang, now recovered, came to the County Town gate to greet Yang Ye, Qiao Xiaomai, and Niu Dacheng. Bei Lingsu was there too, dressed in white, standing adorably beside Tong Sanlang, looking charming and innocent–a standout sight.
Qiao Xiaomai’s face fell immediately at this scene.
What was this situation?
Tong Sanlang had not mentioned this girl in his letters.
