My Antique Mirror Is A Portal To Another World-Chapter 511: Secret Delivery

Rong Hou pondered He Jingtai’s proposal before saying, "Young Master He, my Rong Tribe can work with you. However, we want supplies as payment."

Hearing this, He Jingtai fell into deep thought. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

’Those furs are extremely rare and hard to obtain. If we purchase them using the new currency, it may be impossible for my family to gather enough funds. However, if we trade using grains or flour, the cost will be much lower.’

After weighing the pros and cons, He Jingtai asked, "May I ask what kind of supplies the Tribe Leader wants?"

"I believe Young Master He has already seen our situation on your way here. Although the Great General is kind enough to provide us with suitable living quarters, my people are still starving. If Young Master He is willing, I would like grains and salt in exchange for our goods," Rong Hou replied calmly.

’As expected. They want grains and salt,’ He Jingtai thought, the corner of his lips curving slightly upward.

Smiling politely, He Jingtai said, "That is acceptable. We will use grains and salt in exchange. Tribe Leader Rong, may I see the goods?"

Rong Hou was delighted by his response. He stood up and gestured for He Jingtai to follow. "Young Master He, the goods are stored in the warehouse. Please come with me."

"Tribe Leader Rong, please lead the way," He Jingtai replied as he stood up from his seat.

With that, Rong Hou led the way while He Jingtai and A Bu followed behind.

While Rong Hou and He Jingtai were inspecting the goods, Bai Hanyun was busy receiving deliveries from the Mu Family Construction Material Store.

Sitting on a lounge chair in the courtyard garden, Bai Hanyun watched the surveillance camera feed on her phone.

After the last box was stacked inside the now-filled warehouse, she sent a message to Mu Yingzuo. [Boss Mu, I have received all the goods. Please send me the receipt so I can settle the payment.]

Ding!

Two seconds later, a notification sound echoed through a spacious office as Mu Yingzuo looked up from the document he was reviewing.

Seeing that it was a message from Bai Hanyun, he picked up his phone. After reading the message, he quickly sent the receipt.

Not long after, another notification sounded.

Ding!

Seeing that it was a bank transfer notification, Mu Yingzuo smiled and sent a reply.

[Miss Bai, I have received the payment. Thank you for your patronage. Please feel free to contact me anytime you need more high-carbon steel bars.]

In another world, Bai Hanyun read the message and stood up from the lounge chair. After confirming that no one was around, she focused her mind and opened the portable space and time portal.

She waited a few seconds for the portal to stabilize before stepping inside.

A brief wave of dizziness washed over her before it vanished. When she opened her eyes again, she was already inside her warehouse.

Looking at the metal boxes filling the warehouse, Bai Hanyun smiled in satisfaction. "With this much material, Feng Xiyan should be able to forge enough weapons and armor."

After inspecting the goods, she waved her hand and stored everything in her Qiankun Pouch. Turning around, she stepped back into the portable space and time portal.

A few seconds later, the portal vanished without leaving a trace.

Walking out from the portal, Bai Hanyun appeared once more in the courtyard garden. The second she left the portal, it disappeared without a trace.

Glancing at the sun’s position, she called out, "Yi Bai."

As soon as her voice fell, Yi Bai appeared before her. Clasping her fists, Yi Bai lowered her head and said, "This subordinate is here. Fairy Bai, what are your instructions?"

Smiling at her, Bai Hanyun said, "Yi Bai, let’s go to the workshop."

Yi Bai asked, "Fairy Bai, should this subordinate carry you, or would you prefer a horse carriage?"

Rubbing her chin, Bai Hanyun thought, ’Based on how secretly Feng Xiyan acts, there might be spies inside this city. To be safe, let’s deliver the material without drawing attention.’

After a moment of thought, Bai Hanyun replied, "It wouldn’t be good if someone saw me going to the workshop. Let’s go secretly."

Receiving her answer, Yi Bai stepped closer. "Fairy Bai, please forgive this subordinate’s offense."

After saying that, Yi Bai lifted Bai Hanyun into her arms and activated her lightness skill. Kicking off the ground, she soared into the air.

As they leaped from rooftop to rooftop, the five shadow guards came out from their hiding places and followed closely behind.

On the way to the workshop, Bai Hanyun took the opportunity to observe the city below.

Seeing that most parts of the city had been rebuilt and that the newly erected wall was already half completed, she couldn’t help but praise Feng Xiyan inwardly.

’Feng Xiyan truly lives up to his reputation. His efficiency is remarkable. In just a few weeks, the city reconstruction is nearly complete.’

’I wonder if the materials are sufficient. I guess I need to visit him after delivering the high-carbon steel bars.’

While she was lost in thought, Yi Bai and her five brothers quietly infiltrated the workshop area without being detected.

Landing lightly behind one of the warehouses, Yi Bai set Bai Hanyun down. "Fairy Bai, this is one of the warehouses used to store materials."

Bai Hanyun nodded as she steadied herself.

Seeing her scan the surroundings, Yi Bai added, "Fairy Bai, it’s lunchtime. Only two soldiers are guarding the entrance. We can enter through the windows. It’s just that..."

Noticing her hesitation, Bai Hanyun smiled. "As long as we can get inside, I don’t mind crawling."

At her words, Yi Bai exchanged glances with her five brothers.

After a brief silence, Jiushi Jiu spoke. "Fairy Bai, this way, please."

Following him, Bai Hanyun and the others quietly moved toward a window on the right side of the warehouse.

With Yi Bai and the others keeping watch, Jiushi Jiu opened the window and said, "Fairy Bai, allow this subordinate to assist you."

Without waiting for a response, he placed his palms together. "Fairy Bai, please step on."

Bai Hanyun glanced at his hands, hesitated briefly, then stepped onto his palms.

Without changing his expression, Jiushi Jiu lifted her smoothly.

Grabbing the windowsill, Bai Hanyun pulled herself up and climbed inside.

After confirming that she was safely in, Jiushi Jiu and Yi Bai followed, leaving their remaining three brothers outside to keep watch.
