Chapter 373 Jiang Yan borrows explosives

Jiang Yan was in a hurry to return to the Western Regions because foreigners from there came to rob things again.

Originally, Jiang Yan didn't need to go back, but the news he received said that people over there had injured many people from the Western Regions with catapults.

Now the border of the Western Region has also started fighting, and it will not stop for a while. Jiang Yan also discovered very early that many things were no longer developing as they did in his previous life. In order to protect the place he had guarded for two lifetimes, he borrowed ten boxes of explosives from Xu Ning.

"Are ten boxes of explosives enough?" The moment Jiang Yan asked to borrow explosives, the treasure box in Xu Ning's mind frantically reminded him that there was still a lot of explosives in stock.

"It's enough. Ten boxes are enough, Aning." If he had more, it would be bad for him to bring back. He was familiar with the foreign countries that attacked him, and ten boxes of explosives might not be enough.

Because people in the Western Regions believe in gods more than people in the Southwest.

"Aning, I should be able to return within three months from my trip to the Western Regions. If Aning is ready to leave and return to Haicheng by then, why don't you wait for me for two more days? I haven't seen Grandma Jiang for a long time. My cousin's letter also arrived yesterday. She said that you should go to Beijing to see her when you have time."

The day before Jiang Yan left, she kept talking to Xu Ning for a long time until Xu Ning promised her that if she did not leave Xiacheng for three months, she would wait for him to take a boat back to Haicheng together.

"Oh, and the magistrate of Shanglu County also sent a message that the strong wind over there has passed. He thanked you for your help in the letter and said that he would treat us to a meal when we return to Shanglu County."

"We'll talk about it later. Anything else?" Xu Ning scratched her ears. Why didn't she notice that Jiang Yan talked so much before? She felt like her ears were about to get calloused.

Jiang Yan's eyes turned and his gaze turned to the fortifications where Xu Ning was patrolling, and he immediately put forward a series of suggestions!

Xu Ning stared at him with wide eyes, took a deep breath and listened carefully. She had no choice but to listen, because everything he said was useful.

It was late at night and Xu Ning was lying on the bed, and he could feel Jiang Yan's voice surrounding his ears.

"Bao, I have doubted more than once, are you mine or Jiang Yan's?" Xu Ning complained speechlessly. The treasure box still used the same excuse. Xu Ning was too lazy to roll his eyes and just closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Jiang Yan set off early the next morning. His look was full of reluctance. Xu Ning waved his hand impatiently and told them to leave quickly.

It's an eyesore and an eyesore to the ears. Let her be alone for three months.

Jiang Yan was in a good mood when he saw that Xu Ning was becoming more and more comfortable around him, and he handled the affairs in the Western Regions smoothly afterwards.

The same was true for Xu Ning. Ever since Jiang Yan stopped nagging him, Xu Ning's ears became much quieter. Every day, he just patrolled and played. Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Xiacheng has been almost completed, only the finishing touches are left.

The wasteland outside the city was also enough for everyone to cultivate. The first batch of land that had been cultivated had already been planted with drought-resistant and barren crops such as sweet potatoes and soybeans. While the wasteland was being cultivated, the first batch of land that had been cultivated was already ready for harvesting sweet potatoes.

In the Western Regions, Jiang Yan brought his men back to the base camp and drove the invading foreigners back in just a few days, and even occupied their mountains and grasslands.

Jiang Yan also accidentally discovered a salt mine and immediately dispatched people to dig salt. He took his people to negotiate with Li Dadangjia who was stationed on the other side of the border. The two sides cooperated, and in just one month, Jiang Yan's power expanded by two more cities under the effect of explosives.

"Boss, big boss, that Jiang guy has such powerful weapons, he won't attack us, right?" Not to mention the foreigners were frightened by the explosives, even the bandits in Qingfeng Village were scared to the point of their legs going limp.
