Man Bao picked out a pink tourmaline bracelet, put it on and showed it to Bai Shan, "Does it look good?"

Bai Shan glanced at her white and tender hands and nodded, "They look good."

He turned to the shopkeeper and asked, "Do you have any dark red ones?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "If the young man wants it, even if the store doesn't have it, he will find a way to get it from elsewhere. It's a coincidence that we do have some red tourmalines here, which have been polished, but there's just not enough for one hand."

Just skewers.”

After that, he went to the back hall in person and brought a box up. He opened it and showed it to them. There were seven bright red tourmalines in it, the colors were quite similar.

Bai Shan picked up one and put it on Man Bao's wrist. After comparing it, he smiled and said, "The red one looks better."

Man Bao was stunned for a moment and then said: "Not enough."

Bai Shan said: "It's okay. Let's search in other homes. We can always find enough."

Man Bao looks at the pink bracelet still on her wrist.

Bai Shan said: "You can buy this one yourself. Girls should have more jewelry so that they can match their clothes easily."

When Manbao heard that he was right, he asked the shopkeeper about the price.

It just so happened that Bai Erlang and Yin or the others also came over to pick something, and they all came together to negotiate the price.

Bai Shan asked: "Since there are red ones, does your store have blue bracelets?"

Bai Erlang couldn't help but turn his head, with a look on his face that said, "You are so rich. You want to give Manbao so many things?"

Bai Shan glanced at him and said, "It's for my mother."

Bai Erlang started to think about it, "Then should I choose a bunch for my mother?"

Bai Shan said: "Then you have to buy some gifts for your cousin."

Man Bao thought of Master Bai and nodded repeatedly, "That's right."

Bai Erlang was distressed, "But my father doesn't wear a bracelet either."

Man Bao patted him on the shoulder and said: "Why are you so stupid? Your father can't wear bracelets, but he can wear jade. The jade in the Western Regions is also very good. I plan to choose a few pieces later and give them to my father and me.

Brothers."

Bai Shan also planned to give his grandmother jade.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately said enthusiastically: "Dear guests, we also have jade in this small shop. What kind of jade do you like?"

Bai Shan looked around at the items in his store. The shopkeeper turned around and walked out of the counter and said, "Dear guests, please come next door."

Next door is a full display of jade, gold and silver jewelry, which is also the shopkeeper's business.

Bai Shan and others were surprised. They followed him to the side before going out. Two horses ran past them at high speed. Fortunately, they were standing on the side. They were just startled and stepped aside, waiting for the horses to pass by.

They were about to follow the shopkeeper into the store next door, but the horse that ran away for some distance turned around and ran back, stopping directly in front of them.

Man Bao and others looked up at them together.

The man on the horse saw Zhou Man's face clearly and was convinced. He immediately jumped off the horse and saluted, "Master Zhou!"

Man Bao glanced at their military uniforms and was startled, "You are looking for me..." Something happened to General Ashina?

Bai Shan pulled her and she swallowed her unspoken words. Yes, they are still outside. This is the Western Region, not the Central Plains. For the sake of the stability of the people, this kind of thing cannot be said or spread outside.

The soldier also knew this, so he said with a serious face: "Sir Zhou, we have something to tell you."

Man Bao quickly returned to the courtyard with them. As Bai Erlang walked, he turned back to the shopkeeper and said, "If you have good jade, keep it for us. Don't sell it too early."

The shopkeeper agreed with a smile. After they left, he stroked his beard and began to think deeply. Damn it, if something happens to General Ashina, the Turkic army won't attack the city again, right?

What a sin, the shopkeeper decided not to open for the next two days.

Returning to the courtyard, the soldier took out an urgent official document and handed it to Man Bao. He lowered his head and said, "Sir, our General Han would like to invite you to the front line."

Bai Shan then said in Man Bao's ear: "General Han is the vanguard and confidant of General Ashina."

The soldier said: "The general manager is feeling a little unwell, but he refuses to listen. General Han has no choice but to come back and ask Mr. Zhou to come."

Man Bao asked: "What's wrong with General Ashina?"

"The military doctor said it was due to acclimatization. He had been suffering from fatigue and diarrhea two days before departure from Beizhong. Beizhong rushed all the way back from Kucha for two days."

That's four days.

Man Bao pondered, Ashina is the leader of the army, if something happens to him, this time the troops are sent out, it will be considered a defeat, and they will definitely not be able to continue.

This battle costs a lot of money. If the goal cannot be achieved, then the army's western expedition will be a disastrous failure. Your Majesty will be angry knowing that.

Man Bao did not shirk and nodded in agreement.

Thinking that there were many trauma patients in the army, Zhou Liru could go practice with them, so she said, "I'll take a few people with me and we can leave tomorrow."

The soldier asked her who she wanted to take.

Man Bao pointed at Bai Shan and Zhou Liru and said, "In addition to the two of them, there are a few guards."

Nie Canjun came over from nowhere and said, "Sir, I would like to go with you."

Man Bao said: "Isn't this good? Mr. Zhuang and the others are still in the city and they also need your protection."

Mr. Zhuang said: "We won't go out in the city, and there will be no danger. But you, the front line is weak, so let Nie Canjun follow you."

Man Bao agreed.

The soldier quickly said: "Sir, we have to go back quickly. We won't arrive in two days, but it will take three days. This little lady Zhou..."

Some were afraid that Zhou Liru would not be able to ride a horse.

Manbao looked at Zhou Liru.

Zhou Liru immediately said: "Sister-in-law, I can ride a horse."

Manbao didn't want her to lose this opportunity to practice, so he told the soldier: "It's okay, she can run, and we also need to bring a carriage, some tools, and medicinal materials. Since it's

Unaccustomed to the climate..."

She thought for a moment and then said to Zhou Liru: "Bring the pills we made before, I will write a prescription for you, and you can go to the drug store to grab the medicine now."

Zhou Liru quickly agreed. Seeing how useful she was, the soldier swallowed his words.

The next day Daji drove a car out. Zhou Liru was sitting in the car, while Man Bao and the others were riding horses.

Bai Erlang and Liu Huan also stood by the side holding their horses. They both turned to tell Yin You, "Take good care of me, sir."

Yin Yue waved his hand weakly, "You guys should go quickly."

Bai Erlang and Liu Huan could still go through fighting. He knew that no one would agree no matter how hard he tried, and he didn't want to cause trouble in front of others, so he didn't even mention the subject of going together.

After Bai Shan got on the horse, he said to him: "You can help us go out and have a look at the house. If you see any good-looking jade or gemstones, buy them."

Yin You responded and waved again, "You guys should leave quickly."

The few people then set out to leave the city. After leaving the city gate, they followed two soldiers and ran towards the south.
