My Antique Mirror Is A Portal To Another World-Chapter 45: Filling Up The Lake

Bai Hanyun typed on her phone for a while and then pressed the send button.

[Boss Li, I want to order rice and other types of grains, flour, soybeans, cornmeal, glutinous rice, and glutinous rice flour. Also, give me various mung beans, soybeans, black beans, oils, and condiments.]

[I’m not sure if you have this, but if possible, I would also like to buy concentrated horse feed. I don’t have a preference for the brand—just give me the best quality you have got.]

After sending the messages, Bai Hanyun didn’t have to wait long before Li Dagou replied.

[I don’t have horse feed, but my cousin sells it. The quality is top-notch and the price is fair. If Miss Bai wants, I can contact him for you.]

Raising her eyebrows slightly after reading Li Dagou’s reply, Bai Hanyun muttered, "This Boss Li really does have wide connections and never asks questions. Doing business with him is very pleasant."

After thinking for a moment, Bai Hanyun sent a reply: [Then I will trouble Boss Li to contact your cousin.]

Another reply came a few seconds later. [No problem. Miss Bai, how much of each item do you want?]

Bai Hanyun calculated for a while and decided to buy more this time.

[Give me 20,000 bags of rice, grains, flour, and beans in a 50 kg bag. I also want 5,000 bags of horse feed, and 200 boxes of condiments and oil.]

Seeing the scale of the order, Li Dagou’s smile nearly blinded his wife, who was writing down the order beside him.

After calculating the total, he quickly replied: [Sure. I will prepare the delivery early tomorrow. Miss Bai, the total comes to 5.4 million.]

Bai Hanyun read the message and immediately transferred 2 million over. [Boss Li, this 2 million is the down payment. I will be waiting for the delivery tomorrow.]

Receiving the down payment, Li Dagou quickly responded: [Thank you for your patronage, Miss Bai!]

After ending the chat, Bai Hanyun went to take a bath. Not long after she finished, her food delivery arrived.

She took out her portion and sent the rest to Feng Xiyan. Carrying her food to the dining table, she opened her laptop and enjoyed her dinner while watching a drama.

Meanwhile, in the Feng Army barracks, the soldiers were stunned when they saw what was served for dinner that night.

In their current situation, it was already a blessing to be able to have something to eat. But being able to eat a bowl of steamed white rice, a plate of meat dish, two plates of a vegetarian dish, and a bowl of soup was a blessing they dared not even dream of.

Sitting around a bonfire, one soldier couldn’t help but cry as he chewed the fragrant, sweet, steamed white rice. Tears dripped onto the bowl of rice as he sobbed with his head lowered.

Seeing this, another soldier sitting beside him patted him on the back and said, "Eat well, so you will have enough strength to protect those you care about."

The first soldier nodded and took a big bite of a chicken leg.

Amid the joy of having a hearty meal, sorrow lingered in the soldiers’ hearts. Many of them remembered their comrades and loved ones who had died too early and didn’t have a chance to share this blessing with them.

As the soldiers ate with gratitude, Feng Xiyan was surprised to find more than a dozen dishes packed in transparent plastic boxes in his tent. Guessing it was from Bai Hanyun, he called out, "Someone, come."

Soon, a soldier entered and clasped his fists. "Great General, what are your orders?"

Feng Xiyan picked up a bowl of steamed rice and two side dishes, then said, "Deliver these to the generals and Physician Yan. Tell them these are gifts from Fairy Bai."

"Yes, Great General." The soldier accepted the order and delivered the food as instructed.

While the Feng Army soldiers enjoyed their dinner, many citizens of Xiqiang City also received reward grains brought home by their family members serving in the army.

For the first time since the Yuezhi Tribe began their siege, a sense of joy returned to Xiqiang City. With everyone having enough to eat and drink, the once-chaotic city was finally under control.

After having dinner, Bai Hanyun went to retrieve the antique mirror in the living room.

Standing in front of the display cabinet, she tapped its frame twice. A second later, the antique mirror glowed brightly, and its surface cleared.

Looking into the antique mirror, Bai Hanyun saw Feng Xiyan working behind a long table. She called out, "Feng Xiyan."

Hearing her voice, Feng Xiyan set down his writing brush and walked over to the altar. Clasping his fists, he said, "Fairy Bai, thank you for the meal. It was delicious."

Bai Hanyun smiled and replied, "I’m glad you liked it."

After she said that, Feng Xiyan asked, "Fairy Bai, it’s rare for you to contact me this late. Do you have something to tell me?"

Bai Hanyun explained, "I just wanted to let you know to prepare for the water delivery. I will start sending it tonight and continue until tomorrow morning, so you’d better prepare more water containers."

When Feng Xiyan heard that she would be sending a large amount of water, his eyes lit up.

After a brief moment of thought, he replied, "Fairy Bai, there is a lake near the barracks. It should be big enough to hold the water."

Bai Hanyun nodded and said, "It is a good idea to put water into the lake. This will save time and effort in transferring water into containers, and the citizens can get water more easily. Feng Xiyan, you can bring the mirror to the lake."

"Alright. Please wait a moment."

After Feng Xiyan arrived at the lakeside, he placed the mirror on a stand he had brought and said, "Fairy Bai, you can send the water now."
