Angry, Che Chengyun left without even glancing at Lin Qingyue. She looked at Jiang Han, realizing there was no point in continuing the conversation, just as she was about to leave.
At that moment, Lin Yue entered with a beaming smile, greeting Jiang Han cheerfully, "Brother-in-law, how have you been these past few days?"
"Third Brother!" Lin Qingyue scolded softly.
"Oh dear, sister!" Lin Yue replied with a grin, stepping closer to the two. Addressing Jiang Han, he continued, "Brother-in-law, over the years, I know you have done great favors for our Lin family. In the past, we were foolish; we realize our mistakes now!"
"I’ve criticized my sister before for getting involved in this marriage contract with you," he added. "Look, we've known each other for several years now. You and my sister should sit down and have a good talk!"
Hearing this, Lin Qingyue whipped around and glared at Lin Yue. "When did you ever discuss this with me privately?"
Jiang Han sighed lightly and said calmly, "You didn’t realize your mistakes; you saw greater benefits to pursue."
"Yan Dong, show them out! I do not welcome the Lin family!" Jiang Han waved his hand dismissively, clearly uninterested in dealing with them.
Lin Qingyue flicked her sleeve and shot Jiang Han one last furious glare before storming out.
As Yan Dong pushed Lin Yue out of the shop, he shouted, "Brother-in-law, please reconsider! We truly understand our mistakes; it’s all our fault!"
Soon enough, Lin Yue was also ejected from the store. Yan Dong even kicked him lightly to hasten his departure.
Seeing Yan Dong return, Jiang Han remarked, "From now on, don’t waste any tea on the Lin family."
"Yes, understood!" Yan Dong replied.
"The two young ladies from the Su family are waiting for you in the back!" He then guided Jiang Han to the courtyard to meet Su Qianxue.
Everything that had just transpired was overheard by Su Qianxue and Piao Xue Zhu. As soon as they saw Jiang Han enter, their faces lit up with joy. They admired his resolve in rejecting Che Chengyun's flattery and Lin Qingyue's advances.
In their eyes, Lin Qingyue sitting in Jiang Han's shop meant she was humbling herself and looking to order some Compressed Biscuits. Although it might have been her way of trying to rekindle their connection through purchasing Compressed Biscuits, Jiang Han's ability to prevent her from even speaking was simply impressive.
It seems that Shopkeeper Jiang still has his own principles. I admire this about him. I wonder what happened to the Compressed Biscuits I ordered earlier?
Su Qianxue's beautiful eyes shimmered as she gazed intently at Jiang Han, her expression revealing admiration. Without hesitation, Jiang Han led them to the back warehouse, where there were hundreds of thousands of pounds of Compressed Biscuits. I thought this would be enough to sustain Wan Dajun for quite some time.
Hundreds of thousands of pounds of Compressed Biscuits equate to dozens of tons. Any warehouse producing Compressed Biscuits could easily sell them. However, these Compressed Biscuits were equivalent to tens of thousands of pounds of fodder. With this supply, any capable general could achieve great things.
Seeing so many Compressed Biscuits left Su Qianxue speechless with astonishment. She couldn't help but murmur, "Good, good, good! Shopkeeper Jiang's word is his bond; he truly is an admirable man. Thank you, Shopkeeper Jiang!"
With this batch of Compressed Biscuits, my Imperial Guard will have no worries about supplies for a year.
So many Compressed Biscuits! How were they transported here? Piao Xue Zhu mumbled as she examined the Compressed Biscuits. Even now, she couldn't figure out how Jiang Han managed to bring so many into the warehouse of this shop. But not wanting to dwell on it, she understood that it was Jiang Han's secret and that it wasn't appropriate to ask unless they were very close. As long as Jiang Han could continue supplying them, that was enough.
Shopkeeper Jiang, I remember there was also a sword involved in this transaction!
I brought along Ruby Necklaces and bracelets, totaling eighteen pieces! There are thirty-seven Emerald necklaces and bracelets, along with various Longquan Celadon and white porcelain items—more than a few pieces in total. I want to procure more swords and Compressed Biscuits, but first, I need to confirm that the swords are indeed powerful.
Su Qianxue spoke eloquently and steadily; listening to her was a pleasure for Jiang Han. He nodded and stepped forward, retrieving a High Carbon Steel Eight-Sided Han Sword produced in bulk by the Longquan Sword Forging Factory from behind the towering stack of Compressed Biscuits. Even in bulk orders, this sword only cost a few dozen coins.
As the Eight-Sided Han Sword was drawn from its sheath, a flash of cold light startled the women around them. Piao Xue Zhu, who had studied martial arts since childhood, stepped forward and took the sword from Jiang Han's hands for a closer inspection. She murmured in awe, "It has the craftsmanship of a tempered blade; the sword body is eight-sided. Most importantly, its surface is even smoother than a bronze mirror—truly a creation of heaven and earth."
The Female Guard beside her drew her long sword for testing!
The best way to test a sword is to clash two swords against each other.
Clang! The crisp sound echoed through the warehouse as the longsword in the Female Guard's hand was sliced in two, one piece falling to the ground with a resounding thud. Piao Xue Zhu stared in shock at the Eight-Sided Han Sword, realizing that after severing the Chain Steel Sword held by the guard, the blade of the Eight-Sided Han Sword showed no signs of dulling.
The Chain Steel Sword represented the pinnacle of craftsmanship in the entire nation. How could it be so easily cut apart?
Jiang Han stood with his arms crossed, smiling as he watched the scene unfold. He knew all too well that what was called a Chain Steel Sword in this dynasty was merely iron that had been repeatedly folded and forged, claiming to have a layered structure, hence its name. In reality, his Eight-Sided Han Sword had been forged with no less than three thousand layers and contained a significant amount of carbon powder.
The hardness of the two swords was worlds apart. The Eight-Sided Han Sword sliced through iron like it was mud.
Shopkeeper Jiang truly was an extraordinary man.
Su Qianxue took the other Eight-Sided Han Sword from Jiang Han's hands. As she drew the sword, she could see her reflection clearly on its polished surface. First astonished, she then fully withdrew the longsword and lightly swung it, listening to the long, resonant sound as it cut through the air.
She couldn't help but murmur, "This sword cuts through iron like mud; its mirror-like blade is truly a treasure of the world. If there were only one, it would surely attract countless generals vying for it. Shopkeeper Jiang, you say you can provide two—could that be true?"
To be able to slice through chainmail foretold the ability to cut through armor! In the past, breaking armor could only be achieved using hammers or similar weapons to inflict internal injuries on soldiers; otherwise, ordinary swords would struggle to penetrate defenses!
But with this Eight-Sided Han Sword, everything would change. It would surely slice through armor as easily as cutting flesh—a divine weapon for conquering the world!
