620: Message exchange conditions

"Then bring me a portion of Black Chicken Soup."

Having finished speaking, Ning Buxiu hung up the telephone.

Ning Jiushan and Second Uncle Ning Bashan in the room both widened their eyes slightly.

"Buxiu Restaurant? That's at least two li away from here. Boss, you could hear Xiu'er's words from there?" Father Ning Jiushan's tone fluctuated strongly.

Ning Buxiu nodded slightly: "Haven't I explained the function of this software to you? You can try it yourselves."

Not long after.

Ning Qishan brought a portion of Black Chicken Soup to Ning Buxiu's bedroom.

Even now, his eyes still held a trace of shock.

"Boss, you really went to Buxiu Restaurant just now? You really heard Xiu'er's voice there?" Second Uncle asked in surprise, but seeing the Black Chicken Soup in the other person's hand, he already understood the answer to his question.

Hearing this question, Eldest Uncle Ning Qishan instead asked back: "Xiu'er really didn't go anywhere just now, and yet heard my voice?!"

After a few more minutes of understanding.

The three of them became the first batch of people in this World to roughly understand the telephone calling function.

"Come, what's your number? Give me a number." Ning Jiushan looked at Ning Qishan and said.

"1***" After Eldest Uncle reported the number, he looked at his telephone as if looking at a treasure: "From now on, we can contact each other anytime, anywhere via telephone!"

"We need to arrange for others in the family as well. If they encounter danger, one telephone call and we'll know."

"Cough, this telephone isn't just for casual use either." Ning Buxiu coughed lightly and spoke slowly: "Using the telephone consumes signal resources and places a considerable burden on the server. Therefore, this function of the telephone will require payment in the future."

"However, we can offer newcomers a five-day free call period."

"Paying... that's how it should be. Usually, even sending a message through someone requires a tip, and carrier pigeons cost even more. Our telephone is much more accurate and faster compared to sending messages through others or carrier pigeons. We should charge!" Ning Jiushan nodded heavily.

No wonder he's the Lan Family Head; influenced by his business acumen, he instantly felt the call charges were reasonable.

"Then let's do this, Father, you and Eldest Uncle and Second Uncle take the telephones to sell first. Sell them at cost price, but make sure to write 'Limited Time 10% Discount'."

"Haha, then Xiu'er, you should rest well. Leave the rest to us! Such a good thing will definitely sell big!" Ning Jiushan's face was full of smiles.

Vaguely, he seemed to see a brand new era sweeping in.

And their Ning family would be the leader of this era!

The three left, and Ning Buxiu shook his head slightly.

He couldn't rest; sleep was a torment, with nightmares appearing as soon as he closed his eyes.

The Ning family selling those telephones was like launching a new product no one had ever seen.

It's true that good products will always shine.

But Ning Buxiu also understood the principle that even good wine is afraid of deep alleys.

He needed to add fuel to his own ye ning mobile phone.

Ordering two servants, Ning Buxiu got into a carriage and headed towards the County Magistrate's residence in Five Directions City.

Lifting the carriage window, Ning Buxiu looked at the flagstone road before him.

To be precise, he was looking at the unnoticed weeds by the side of the flagstone road.

After planting these Little Grass yesterday, in just one night, these Little Grass seedlings had grown taller.

Looked at this way, in less than twenty days, these Little Grass would be completely mature and feed him high-definition images.

And when the carriage passed by those mature recording weeds, Ning Buxiu could also see that the seed tufts on the weeds had been washed away by the wind and rain, drifting to the muddy fields and mountains in the distance.

County Office.

The brick walls were built high, the steps extended majestically, and the two stone lions looking up at the blue sky resembled two righteous judges.

And by the side of the huge mansion gate, there was a large drum for reporting grievances and crimes.

His gaze swept past the two constables at the gate and looked behind them.

Under the flag of Qingpan Country, which represented justice, sat the County Magistrate, who was presiding over a trial with a frustrated expression and a face full of fat.

After the poetry gathering last night ended, County Magistrate Bao Xingchao immediately severed his relationship with the Zhou family overnight.

Turning around, he immediately threw himself into work.

Now, Seventh Princess and that Yuwen Mingxuan, two heavyweight existences, had come to his Five Directions City for unknown reasons.

Naturally, he dared not be negligent in the slightest.

And he was quite diligent in cracking down on criminals within the city.

He absolutely couldn't let these two hear about any bad things happening within Five Directions City during their stay.

However, among these emotions, what Bao Xingchao suppressed most deeply was the truth about his only son's death!

These past few days, he had seen his son's corpse, poisoned to death and unable to rest in peace, countless times in his nightmares!

That Child of his was originally his only descendant. Now that he was dead, his Bao family was without heirs!

And now, finding the murderer of his son had become Bao Xingchao's obsession.

On the bounty list outside, the reward for the murderer who poisoned his son had even been raised to one hundred taels of gold!

But during this time, there was still not a single piece of information.

"Lord, the Eldest Young Master of the Ning family, Ning Buxiu, requests an audience. He says he knows the murderer who killed Young Master Bao."

The adjutant beside him lowered his voice and reported into Bao Xingchao's ear.

"He knows?!" Bao Xingchao heard this news, his slightly pale eyebrows suddenly furrowed, and his voice even became a little sharp.

Standing up, Bao Xingchao then said: "Tell him to wait for me in the courtyard!"

"Lord, I am wronged! Wang Er stole my Lin Yue's wife while I was out selling cakes. The evidence for this matter is conclusive, Lord, please judge clearly."

The three people below were the case Bao Xingchao was currently presiding over.

Hearing A Man who was crying out for justice, Bao Xingchao glanced at the remaining two men and women and impatiently waved his hand: "You can't produce any evidence. This official has always advocated for uncovering the truth through clear investigation. Could it be that you want this official to torture your Lin Yue's wife and Wang Er into confessing?"

"Let this case be like this. Adjourn the court."

"Lord, Lord! This case needs a conclusion, Lord!"

Amidst A Man's cries, Bao Xingchao showed no intention of caring at all, striding towards the courtyard behind the County Office.

Walking quickly, County Magistrate Bao Xingchao soon saw Ning Buxiu quietly waiting in the pavilion.

Upon seeing the other party, Bao Xingchao's originally boiling anger gradually subsided.

After witnessing yesterday, he understood that this person was absolutely top-notch at flattery.

After interacting with Yuwen Mingxuan, such a person would at least be a dog by the side of that Yuwen Gongzi in the future.

And a dog by the side of that Young Master would not have a lower status than him.

It was better not to be arrogant.

Although he didn't show oppression, Bao Xingchao couldn't manage a smile either.

"Little friend Ning, you know the murderer who killed my son?" Bao Xingchao asked, getting straight to the point.

"That's right." Ning Buxiu's face was noticeably pale, but his tone was certain.

"Who is the murderer, and where are they?!" Unconsciously, the Middle-aged man's voice carried a hint of sternness and intense killing intent.

Listening to the other party's words, Ning Buxiu slowly shook his head without haste: "I remember, the County Magistrate has a bounty for this information, right?"

"You want money?" Bao Xingchao frowned slightly and waved his hand at the adjutant behind him.

Not long after, a servant came to their side, holding a plate of gold.

"Can you tell me now?"

"No rush. I still need the County Magistrate to agree to a request of mine. After all, to help the County Magistrate get this information, our Ning family actually spent more resources than a hundred taels of gold. Adding one condition shouldn't be too much, right?"

Ning Buxiu's gentle and orderly words fell into Bao Xingchao's ears, but they only exacerbated the irritation in his heart.

After a brief silence, the Middle-aged man spoke in a low, heavy voice: "State your condition. I hope you know your limits."

Ning Buxiu smiled calmly, then took out a telephone from his hand: "This is something our Ning family researched and produced, called a telephone."

"My request is to have the more than two thousand officials in Five Directions City, including constables and jailers, these lower-level officials, all go to our Ning family and purchase a telephone. Mandatory purchase."
