Chapter 214: A Rather Lucrative ProfitTranslator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The sapling sobbed. Its little master was admonishing it so harshly, how did it dare to retort. Instead, it rushed to regain her favor. “Yes, I understand, I understand. Qiuqiu will be good.”
“Qiao Mu[a], we’ll become strong one day!” Qiao Mu determinedly looked ahead of her. “By ourselves!”
“What is it?” Mo Lian looked down at the soft twig that swiftly receded without a trace before turning to the child’s tense face. “It’s fine, it can’t absorb much.”
‘Why are you indulging it?!’
The sapling immediately grew excited. ‘Mastur[b], the youth said it’s fineeeee ah!’
‘Ha ha. You’re so excited that you’re even stammering.’
‘Shut up and return to cultivating.’ Qiao Mu ignored the troublemaking tree.
‘Sniff sniff… Youth, farewell, if we have another chance next time…’

“You…”—Qiao Mu looked up at him—”are fine?”
‘That tree of mine is too unruly.’
“It’s nothing. It really isn’t a bother.” Mo Lian smiled and patted the child’s head. “Don’t worry about me.”
Qiao Mu turned angry from embarrassment and promptly kicked him. “I’m not worrying.”
“Heh.” The crown prince could not refrain from chuckling. A wave of his hand and all the fallen wood pieces on the ground lightly floated and were parted to the side by a mighty power in an instant.
A hole was revealed underneath the sealed wooden shed.
“The granary?” Qiao Mu’s eyes brightened.
“It should be.” The crown prince smiled and nodded. “Let’s go down and see.”
Duan Yue and the other people all ran to the hole but were abandoned with a dry “Stay up here” from Mo Lian.
There were four underground granaries constructed here, brimming with piles of grains, beans, and tuberous crops.
Qiao Mu took out 50 storage talismans in front of the crown prince and packed each talisman to the brim.
This way, precisely a fourth of the food from each granary disappeared.
The crown prince could not help but smile at how the little one could take out 50 storage talismans so casually. If it was someone else, their chin would drop onto the ground.
“For you.” Darling Qiao Mu calmly put away all of the filled storage talismans and took out another 20 empty storage talisman to hand to the crown prince. “Hush money.”
The crown prince nearly chuckled out loud. He naturally accepted the storage talismans and complimented, “My Qiaoqiao is so amazing.”
If those arrogant and snobbish talisman practitioners in Guanlan City saw the little one take out talismans by the wad, would they be ashamed to death?
He wondered whether those idiotic fools could even produce 10 talismans in a month.
Because talismans were rare, the amount that flowed into the market was even sparser.
That’s why it would not be an exaggeration to say that a thousand taels of gold would not be enough to purchase even a single talisman.

“Okay. It’d be my loss if I didn’t take it.” Mo Lian nodded and also took a portion of the food from each granary, using his blood to open the talismans and putting the food away.
Qiao Mu: …
She thought the filthy rich crown prince would be modest and say “I should leave it for my people.”
However, he did not.
In truth, the youth’s frankness elicited admiration from Qiao Mu. She did not like people being hypocritical and pretentious.

After they wrapped up and left the underground granary, they told the people above ground, “There’s a lot of food down here.”
Everyone cheered and jumped in joy. They did not come on this trip only to return empty-handed.
In the end, Crown Prince Mo decided to take away half of the remaining food and sent the youths from the Night Pavilion to stay here and wait for the rescue team from the South Battalion. Then, they would transport the food back to the royal capital together.
The storage of food here exceeded City Lord Gu’s expectations. Even after having so much taken away, the remaining amount would be enough to last the common people in the city for four months.
Qiao Mu and her group’s trip had a rather lucrative bumper harvest.
