Chapter 371: Caught the Man

After confirming that there were no problems on both sides, Lu Wanyin was completely relieved.

She did not return to Zizai City directly, but went to Fanzhou first.

The prefect of Fanzhou hasn't had a good night's sleep for half a month.

When he was sent by the Wang family, he was specifically told to discuss everything with the Lin family.

It was only when he arrived in Fanzhou that he met the head of the Lin family, and the Wang family had a falling out with the Qi Xuanhou Mansion.

His relationship with the Lin family also reached a freezing point.

Before he could figure out how to handle the relationship between the two parties, Lu Wanyin and Xie Jingci came to him.

After reporting to Lu Wanyin twice, he was still worried about what would happen if his betrayal of the Wang family was discovered.

The Lin family was attacked by an unknown force overnight and was on the verge of extinction.

With this series of events, the wind direction kept changing, and even though he thought he had a very good character, he was still overwhelmed.

I've never seen anything this strange before, and I can't seem to figure out any pattern to it.

A figure appeared out of nowhere in the corner of the study again, but the prefect of Fanzhou, who was in a dilemma, didn't notice it at all.

Lu Wanyin coughed lightly and reminded him: "Has the Wang family sent any news recently?"

The prefect of Fanzhou was startled and stood up quickly, but his leg hit the chair and his face turned pale with pain.

He supported his leg with one hand and hurried to the table: "No, the person sent by the Wang family last time has not returned yet, they only sent a letter back.

But more than half a month has passed, and there has been no reply from the capital. I just heard that..."

He glanced at Lu Wanyin cautiously and said, "I heard that Lord Wang spoke nonsense in the court and is now in jail."

Lu Wanyin nodded: "Well, is there anything else?"

Seeing her calm expression, as if everything was within her expectations, the prefect of Fanzhou was filled with shock.

Could it be that she was involved in this matter?

The Fanzhou prefect tried to calm his expression. "It seems the Lin family has recently provoked some enemies and has been dealt a heavy blow. I estimate they will be destroyed within ten days."

Behind the Lin family is the Qi Xuanhou Mansion.

Those who lack vision cannot afford to offend the Lin family.

People with broad vision know this relationship and dare not provoke it.

He stole another glance at Lu Wanyin.

His expression was calm as usual.

Could it be this person's work?

Lu Wanyin pondered for a moment: "If that person wants to destroy the Lin family, he wouldn't take so long. It seems that he wants to give the Lin family a chance to send a message."

Since we are ready for war, of course we need to let people know who is going to deal with the Lin family.

"If I remember correctly, the mistress of the Lin family is Xu, right?"

Thinking of the Lin family, Lu Wanyin immediately thought of Xu, who was covered in gold and silver.

She looked at the cautious Fanzhou prefect and said, "Find an opportunity to arrest Xu."

The Fanzhou prefect was shocked: "Yes."

Could it be that Xu has a grudge against this person?

Lu Wanyin glanced at him and said, "Don't resort to lynching. To be honest, it's mainly because of her that you can be here now.

Lock him up properly. Whether the Lin family lives or dies in the future has nothing to do with you.

If anyone goes to see Mrs. Xu, just tell her that it was me who wanted to protect her.

My last name is Lu."

Although Lu Wanyin looked down on the Xu family, when the Xie family was exiled, she, who only had the empty title of mistress, dared to come to rescue them.

The courage is quite good.

"yes."

The Fanzhou prefect quickly assured: "I will take good care of Madam Lin."

"There's no need to take special care of it."

Lu Wanyin waved her hand: "Forget it, you can do whatever you want. If there is any situation, send a message to Zizai City in time."

She casually pulled a piece of clean paper from the table and picked up a pen that had just been dipped in ink.

As the pen tip moved, a shelf appeared on the paper.

It looks like a farm tool.

Lu Wanyin put down her brush and blew the ink dry. "The vast plain between Fanzhou and the wilderness is a rare arable land. Send people to build more according to the blueprint.

The soil in this area is quite hard, so the part buried underground requires fine iron."

The prefect of Fanzhou looked bitter, but he did not dare to disobey Lu Wanyin's order: "Yes."

You can tell from the drawings that this is a good thing.

But Fanzhou is poor.

The profits had already been plundered by the Lin family and the former prefect and sent to the capital.

The rest are just a few wealthy people like Mu Ji.

If Lu Wanyin had not made large purchases in Fanzhou during that period and revitalized Fanzhou, his job as prefect would have been even more difficult.

Ordinary iron must be refined at least a hundred times before it becomes fine iron, which requires more iron.

How could he, a poor prefect who had just taken office, get so much fine iron?

Lu Wanyin noticed his discomfort and chuckled, "The wooden frame needs to be made first. I'll send someone to deliver the fine iron to Fanzhou within a month."

"As for the seeds, I'll send someone to deliver them as well. It's up to you to arrange the tenants."

"You should know the conditions for tenants in Zizai City. The standards are the same."

"Also, continue recruiting city guards. We don't need them to fight, but as for Fanzhou and this piece of land in the middle of the wilderness, have them guard it for me."

Lu Wanyin gave a lot of orders in one breath.

After careful consideration, I realized that I hadn't missed anything, so I breathed a sigh of relief: "I remember everything."

"yes."

The Fanzhou prefect didn't dare to breathe, and looked at Lu Wanyin with fear and trepidation: "Everything else is not a problem, but the issue of recruiting soldiers... I'm afraid the court won't allow it."

Disobeying the royal family and disobeying the imperial court are two different things.

"Imperial Court"

Lu Wanyin sneered: "By the time the news reaches the court, they won't care about these things anymore."

Although the weather had begun to warm up, the prefect of Fanzhou felt that his clothes were already soaked with sweat.

He felt his head swaying on his neck.

Lu Wanyin took out a chip and placed it on the blueprint of the farm tool: "Do your job well and stick this on your body. If someone attacks you, it will save your life. If I don't want you to die, no one can take your life."

Lu Wanyin tapped the table with her knuckles, turned around, and disappeared without a trace.

The prefect of Fanzhou widened his eyes, looked around the study, then ran to the door and looked around.

After a long time, he suddenly reached out and slapped himself.

"Hiss, it hurts, how could a real person suddenly disappear?"

Lu Wanyin had long coveted the vast plain outside Fanzhou, which was why she wanted to take Fanzhou into her own hands.

The plain was somewhat barren, with even the weeds growing sparsely.

It doesn't look like a place where food can grow.

This is especially true for the Gobi Desert connected to the plain.

But for Lu Wanyin, none of these are problems.

The matter of refining refined iron needs to be discussed with Song Jiuning and Di Shi.

One of them is in charge of the business of Zizai City, and the other is the city lord, in charge of the overall situation of Zizai City.

Only when two people work together can efficiency be maximized.

After returning to Zizai City, Song Jiuning happened to be free.

When she saw Lu Wanyin, she excitedly held up the account book as usual: "Look, we..."

Every time she came over, Song Jiuning would count with her in detail how much gold she had earned that month.

"Stop, stop, I'm here for something else."

Lu Wanyin quickly stopped her from talking: "Come with me to the City Lord's Mansion."
