Transmigrating To The Ancient Times With Lu's Convenience

Chapter 133

Other teahouses were owned by members of the imperial house, of course they had to change the plan because couldn't afford to offend the high-ranking officials in the slightest.

At that point, it was no longer something that Chen Xiao Cai could manage. Chen Xiao Cai handed the matter to Ji Cheng Kang's capable hands.

There were too many big shots in the capital city, Chen Xiao Cai knew he had to speak and act cautiously.

"Although everything is good in the capital city, I miss the freedom."

Chen Xiao Mi smiled and said, "You are back home now, Cai, just be yourself!"

......

Chen Xiao Cai sent a batch of wine to the military camp as a thankyou gift for their hard work on the trip.

Chen Xiao Cai now enjoyed some fame in the military camp. Along the way, the escorting soldiers could always get some snacks from Cai. After Chen Xiao Cai arrived at the capital, he had treated the soldiers to nice dinners from time to time.

The soldiers appreciated Chen Xiao Cai's gesture very much.

In the military camp, some of the soldiers who originally looked down on Chen Xiao Cai started to regard him with special respect when they heard he shared the profit with Ji Cheng Kang.

Liu Yun flipped through the book in his hand and said, "General Ji, this story is really interesting."

Ji Cheng Kang nodded and said, "I'm glad you enjoy it. I heard that the imperial concubines in the palace also like this story."

Ji Cheng Kang even sent a few hardback editions to the imperial palace. The cost was actually very cheap, but it came with a great return. Ji Cheng Kang was never good at seeking credit for his accomplishment, so he tended to get invisible in front of the emperor. But now the emperor was so impressed by the books that he even recalled Ji Cheng Kang's brilliant achievements in war, the emperor even had mentioned giving Ji Cheng Kang a promotion.

Ji Cheng Kang was rendered speechless. He braved countless dangers over the years yet he remained invisible in the imperial court, now he had distinguished himself over a set of books.

Liu Yun smiled and said, "We can even tell the story to the soldiers as entertainment."

Ji Cheng Kang nodded and said, "Okay! Old Eight and others who went to the capital city all have heard the story, I'm sure they will be more than happy to share the story with others."

"There are more people settling down in Sha County recently," Liu Yun said.

Ji Cheng Kang nodded and said, "This is a good thing. We can reclaim more desolate land with more people."

Ji Cheng Kang felt that Sha County seemed to have changed quite a lot. Many villagers were repairing roads with enthusiasm. He thought the villagers must get paid really well considering how much enthusiasm they had.

......

Shen Chi was very excited about Chen Xiao Cai's return.

"Is the capital city prosperous?" Shen Chi asked curiously.

Chen Xiao Cai nodded. "The capital city is naturally bustling."

The most prosperous place in Sha County was the commercial street, but there were so many bustling districts in the capital city.

Antique shops, jewel shops, calligraphy shops, you could find everything that you could wish for in the commercial district.

It really baffled Chen Xiao Cai that one painting could be sold for over a few hundred tales of silver.
