How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 677: Development Upon Development
They were among the first few groups to leave, and it seemed like the people above hadn’t reacted yet.
But by the time the later groups went, the inspections became very strict.
These people didn’t know where they heard the news from, and even started touching the makeup on these people’s faces.
Some even checked for human skin masks.
And because these inspections took so long, the people became a bit complacent.
Some were caught and tied to the city walls for display.
It was all to draw Pei Shu’er out.
But precisely, Pei Shu’er had to rescue these people.
They weren’t soldiers; they were merchants and it was only after much persuasion that they followed her out.
If they knew this trip to Da Zheng was this dangerous, and if she had been so indifferent to their lives, those merchants still observing wouldn’t follow.
The people who came now were actually the most trustworthy for Pei Shu’er.
She couldn’t let these people lose faith.
During the hottest time of the day, those soldiers felt weakened from the sun.
Pei Shu’er took this opportunity to rescue the people.
Before the rescue, she gave everyone Spiritual Spring Water, calling it Mighty Water.
The people from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion knew about the Mighty Water, but it was the first time for the merchants.
When they drank it, they were stunned, feeling their bodies fill with strength.
First came the smoke bomb, followed by earth bombs with sedatives.
When the earth bombs exploded, the sedative had already dispersed, but the range was so large that the sedative’s effect wasn’t very pronounced.
It only made those people dizzy and weak.
Then everyone charged into the smoke, but these people were obviously prepared. Pei Shu’er’s people had already taken the antidote beforehand.
A fierce battle broke out between both sides.
However, since Pei Shu’er’s people all had drunk the Spiritual Spring Water, their strength increased, and even the untrained merchants dealt with trained soldiers like children.
They were astonished by their own fists.
They really couldn’t believe they were so powerful.
These were people who usually panted after a few steps!
Those from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion and the soldiers seemed to descend like gods, with a surge in combat power, the soldiers were no match.
Taking on five at once was normal by now.
Moreover, the numbers on each side were almost evenly matched, so naturally, their side won.
The Da Zheng soldiers were beaten to a watery defeat.
More reinforcements came, several times their numbers, and if they continued to stalemate, their side would surely suffer.
Moreover, the effects of the Spiritual Spring Water were wearing off.
Soon they would not be god-like but more like soft-footed shrimps.
"Don’t get caught up in the fight, let’s go."
At this moment, Pei Shu’er scattered a handful of sedatives, dizzying the foremost Da Zheng soldiers.
Then when those Da Zheng soldiers reached the city gate, they were blocked, slowing their pace.
The captured merchants were also drugged, so soldiers had to carry them.
Some Da Zheng soldiers came close enough to pursue, but then Pei Shu’er used another smoke bomb with sedatives, impeding their actions.
Everyone mounted horses, and there were several archers who had never drunk Spiritual Spring Water but still had strength, retreating while shooting earth bombs at the Da Zheng soldiers. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
There were also sedatives inside.
Thus, those Da Zheng people couldn’t catch up and had to turn back.
More importantly, there was no evidence they were Dayan people.
After all, everyone was in disguise and not wearing Dayan clothing.
As for the earth bombs, even some folk groups now made them, so it wasn’t just a Dayan specialty.
They withdrew from Da Zheng and fled to the neighboring Great Xia Country.
Here they treated the captured people’s injuries, and everyone was very grateful for Pei Shu’er’s righteousness.
"We thought we were going to be abandoned."
Pei Shu’er smiled and said, "No, we came out together, so naturally, we should return together."
Those who had previously drunk Spiritual Spring Water were now exhausted but it didn’t stop them from praising it.
"It’s amazing! This Mighty Water is incredible."
"Exactly, my strength instantaneously increased fivefold."
Great Xia’s purchasing power may not be as strong as Zheng Country and Shang Country, but it’s also a fertile country with lots of grain.
Their grain prices were very cheap.
While passing through Great Xia, those farmers saw this dusty group and also the beautiful and intricate silks.
But they dared not come forward.
The Great Xia people are much more simple.
When Pei Shu’er called out on a loudspeaker, they understood.
The beautiful silks could be exchanged for grain to buy Double-sided Brocade and Cloud Brocade.
The farmers were elated and immediately brought out their stored grain to trade.
This fabric was something they had never seen before.
And the word spread like wildfire.
Pei Shu’er chose rural areas as transaction points, while in the cities, they exchanged with a combination of currency and grain.
But it was slightly more expensive in the cities, with the rural deals being more cost-effective.
Finally, in Great Xia, they exchanged for 4 million tons of grain.
Just as a new batch of cloth arrived, this time, Pei Shu’er no longer let Tang Zan deliver letters, she went with her people.
When they transported the grain back to Dayan, they already told the people there to also prepare some skincare products and porcelain, and any other easily transportable goods could be brought over.
Then her subordinates even brought sanitary napkins and diapers.
As for cheap goods like cotton cloth, they didn’t choose them again as they were not cost-effective and took up space.
So this time, the products were more comprehensive than last time.
Of course, those products had already been restocked in each of Pei’s stores.
At the same time, Pei Shu’er arranged for a batch of cooks and some managerial personnel to be transported over.
Salaries were doubled, with excellent conditions, allowing for the settlement of entire families, and housing was promised in Great Xia after three months.
Then, Pei’s business model from Dayan was once again replicated in other countries.
This time, she aimed to earn both money and grain from other countries.
As for Da Zheng, Pei Shu’er still opened stores, only changing the name to Mei Ji.
In just a month, her Pei’s had already broken even and turned a profit.
After three months, the homes for Dayan’s managerial staff and cooks to purchase were arranged to be together, ensuring each family had three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a small courtyard.
Of course, there would be modifications, with some large houses being converted into several smaller ones.
These houses were, in fact, under Pei Shu’er’s name.
If someone wanted to return and develop in their country, the house would be reclaimed by her, and future leasing or assignment to other Dayan people had nothing to do with them.
If they worked for twenty years, the house would belong to them.
