The news that the prince, who had disappeared for more than half a year, had been found only caused a stir for a while and then never caused any more waves.

Everyone should live their lives as usual.

After all, in this year when people can barely get enough food to eat, how can they have the time to worry about the affairs of the wealthy families in the capital?

The eldest son of the Shen family is still studying with Shen Rong in the town school, preparing to take part in the college entrance examination in August this year.

Before taking part in the academy examination, they must first pass the county examination and the prefectural examination.

The Shen family doesn't have to worry about the boys' study problems at all.

They all come from poor families, so they will naturally study hard if they have the opportunity to study.

Moreover, if they couldn't learn anything in the town school, Shen Rong and Ji Xun would help them when they came back.

Song and Zhao were in charge of the affairs in the paper-making workshop, and after little Zhang recovered, she became the accountant.

The elderly people are so happy to be at home enjoying their grandchildren.

These days, Shen Yu'an has also been busy with new things, which is trying to make steel. Making weapons is her strong point.

After all, Fei Yanche was someone she was protecting, so there was no reason for him to be bullied in vain when he went to the capital.

She had seen it the last time she went up the mountain. The weapons in the hands of the soldiers under Fei Yanche were considered pretty good for this era, but they were still far inferior to the weapons stored in her space as exhibits.

In the Wei Dynasty, weapons in the hands of soldiers were mostly made of bronze and iron.

This is also the most common weapon raw material in this era.

However, weapons made of these materials are prone to bending.

To put it simply, if you are in a direct battle and even your weapons are blunt, then what is the point of fighting? Just surrender.

Of course, it would be better if steel could be refined. Even if it cannot be refined, it would always be good to purify the iron a little more.

But to make steel, you need iron first, and Shen Yu'an doesn't have it!

Although she had some connections with the General's Mansion, if she asked for it, the General's Mansion might be able to help her find something.

But they can't help but wonder what they need iron for.

If someone reports it himself, he would have no place to cry.

After thinking it over, Shen Yu'an still stretched out his claws towards Fei Yanche.

Although he is not here, the people he has gathered during this period are still stationed in the mountains behind Longxian Village.

The mountain range behind Longxian Village is so large and wide that no one has been able to travel through the entire range to this day.

In the past, there were hunters who went deep into the depths to hunt bears or something, but no one who went came back alive, so over time, no one dared to go deep into the depths.

This just made it convenient for Fei Yanche to hide people in the mountains.

After dinner that day, Shen Yu'an secretly went to Fei Yanche's base camp under the pretext of going up the mountain to hunt.

Shen Yu'an still remembered the route he took last time, but he saw a silly roe deer halfway and went a little off track.

Looking at the silly roe deer standing by the stream and drinking water, Shen Yu'an took out a small crossbow from the space.

She had just seen that this silly roe deer was fat and strong, with at least a few hundred kilograms of meat. She would bring it to the camp as a snack for Fei Yanche's brothers.

The silly roe deer who was drinking water had no idea that danger was behind him and was still drinking water leisurely.

Whoosh~

It only took a few seconds for a small crossbow arrow, which was only about 20 centimeters long, to be shot and hit the neck of the silly roe deer.

Boom!

The silly roe deer fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Shen Yu'an put the crossbow back into the space and walked towards the stupid roe deer that had fallen to the ground.

She bent down and looked at the wound on the silly roe deer's neck. Good! The crossbow arrow was firmly stuck in the flesh, and not even blood flowed out.

She picked up the silly roe deer from the ground and was about to continue climbing the mountain, but when she was dragging the roe deer up, a stone rolled out from under its body and attracted Shen Yu'an.

It is a stone that looks dark red.

Shen Yu'an bent down to pick it up, took it in his hand and looked at it, and a bold idea emerged in his mind.

Looking at the ordinary "stone" in his hand, Shen Yu'an couldn't suppress his excitement. After using his supernatural power to detect that there was no one nearby, he took the "stone" into the space.

After entering the space, Shen Yu'an found a dusty detection instrument.

Fortunately, the instrument was still usable, and Shen Yu'an couldn't wait to put the "stone" he brought in.

After a long wait, the instrument finished running and finally detected what the substance was.

It is a piece of iron ore that has not yet been refined.

The sudden appearance of a piece of iron ore on the mountain means that there must be an iron mine nearby!

Chen Yu'an held the piece of iron ore and returned to the space. He found a big tree and began to radiate his mental power in all directions.

Now the range of her mental power can cover an area of ​​two hundred meters around her.

But this mountain range is so huge that even though I have used my mental power to the maximum, I still haven't found the mine.

Shen Yu'an didn't think her sixth sense was wrong.

She walked in the direction of the place where the magnetic field fluctuation was the largest, which was the opposite direction of Fei Yanche's base.

Shen Yu'an used her supernatural powers to explore the way as she walked, following the direction of the magnetic field that attracted her.

After walking for about an hour, Shen Yu'an looked at the trench about two meters high and jumped down without hesitation.

This is it.

Shen Yu'an took out a shovel and started digging on the mountain.

After digging for a long time with great effort, Shen Yu'an was exhausted and sweating profusely, and finally he hit a particularly hard spot that could not be moved even with a shovel.

A one-meter-deep hole had been dug out in the mountain by Chen Yu'an.

Shen Yu'an carefully scanned the surroundings with his mental power, and after making sure that there was no one around, he took out a high-power flashlight and leaned inside.

Looking at the dark red substance mixed with the mountain soil, it was exactly the same as the one he had just picked up.

Shen Yu'an thought to himself that it was just as he expected, and slowly retreated.

What she thought of really came true. She was also thinking about trying to smelt the iron to make it more pure so that the weapons made would be more lethal.

I was just worrying about not having enough iron, and now, as I feel sleepy, a pillow is given to me.

She tried to explore it with her mental power, but couldn't find the end. The mine was so big that she couldn't handle it all by herself.

She would never report it to the court on her own initiative. Such a good thing must have been done in cooperation with her Ah Che.

Although few people come to this deep mountain, and the place she dug out is in a two-meter-deep trench.

But Shen Yu'an still dragged a bunch of weeds over to cover the entrance of the hole.

After looking around inside and out and finding no flaws, Shen Yu'an used his mental power to mark the place and left.

After Fei Yanche left, he kept Fei Xi as well. Fei Dong once felt that it was not a good idea to keep Fei Xi because he didn't look very smart.

Because we walked quite far, it took a long time to return.

Ever since Shen Yu'an showed off her skills in front of Fei Yanche's men last time, almost everyone in the camp knew her.

A small group of people patrolling back and forth saw Shen Yu'an coming, and hurriedly welcomed her in, asking, "Miss Shen, what's the matter with you?"

The master told them to treat Miss Shen with the same respect as he treated him before returning to the capital.

What does it mean to treat someone like your master?

That means this is their future mistress!

And the skill that Shen Yu'an showed that day really intimidated these young people who were full of vigor, so when everyone saw her coming, they tried to show their presence and enthusiastically welcomed her in.

Move your fingers and cast your precious gold and silver bills, thank you!
