Hearing this, An Jiuyue raised her hand and playfully touched the tip of Yi Zhou’s nose.
"Mommy is just experinting. Once the experint succeeds, it will rain." She said.
"Mommy, be honest with Nuonuo, is it Dragon Soul Uncle helping you make it rain?" Qian Yinuo reached out to hug his mother’s neck and softly asked in her ear.
He had heard that dragons could make it rain, so wouldn’t Dragon Soul Uncle be able to do it too? So did mommy ask Dragon Soul Uncle to bring a heavy rain to relieve the drought in the Northern Lands?
An Jiuyue laughed and shook her head at the little baby’s words.
Only a little one like Qian Yinuo would call Dragon Soul Uncle. If it were soone else, would they be so comfortable talking to Dragon Soul like that?
This Dragon Soul naturally carried a presence. Even if it wasn’t released, people could feel it. It was one of those things you couldn’t ignore. Ordinary people entering Qian Jiyun’s space would feel like they couldn’t breathe.
"Little one, Northern Lands is not a suitable place for your Dragon Soul Uncle to breathe fire." She said.
"Why?"
The little baby didn’t understand. Was it because Dragon Soul Uncle was in daddy’s space and couldn’t co out?
That could be the case. If he couldn’t get out, naturally it wouldn’t rain outside.
"Nuonuo, Dragon Soul’s breath is fire, not rain." Qian Jiyun couldn’t handle his little baby’s silly look and told him the truth.
Perhaps other Dragon Souls had water attributes, but the Dragon Soul in his space was of the fire elent. One breath of Dragon’s breath could set an entire land on fire, can it rain?
Bringing fire is more likely.
"Huh?"
Qian Yinuo was dumbfounded.
So Dragon Soul Uncle breathes fire, and he got it wrong.
"Then, mommy, what do you rely on to make it rain? Can you make it rain yourself? I’ve never seen you make it rain before."
He was sowhat familiar with his mommy. She definitely couldn’t make it rain—she could probably wield a Demon Power Knife, the kind that cuts down groups of people in one sweep.
"With a Talisman, we can make it rain."
An Jiuyue said and didn’t want to discuss it further. She then went out with Qian Jiyun, taking the three little ones with them.
...
Steward Hao personally ca to where the Governor was and t with the Governor.
"What you said, is it true?"
The Governor, whose age was unclear this year, had hair already turning white. Lightly stroking his white beard, his hand trembled slightly, uncertain whether it was due to excitent over good news or simply old age.
"Sir, what I said is true. I saw a lot of grain with my own eyes." Steward Hao said.
"Two hundred thousand shi of grain, where did it co from?"
The Governor looked puzzled as he turned to Steward Hao and asked.
"This..."
How could Steward Hao know where the grain ca from? He only knew that there was indeed grain.
"Sir, I don’t know where exactly the grain ca from. I would like to find out, but these matters are always done very secretly. Even if I wanted to investigate, it probably wouldn’t be possible, right?"
Who would reveal their way of making money?
Furthermore, he dared not investigate now. What if those behind Master Ji got wind of it and stopped selling grain to them?
Then he would return empty-handed, with nothing to show. He couldn’t bear the thought of ending up with nothing.
At least he had to keep this batch of grain in his control to gain significant benefits. If he couldn’t obtain the grain, then he truly would have nothing.
