Anyway, she was not happy to take on this high-profile leadership position.

Hearing his daughter say this, Lin Shucheng didn't see through her little scheme at all, and said happily, "Okay, then I'll have to think about it. Now that they're in charge, we definitely have to make sure they get rich together with our family."

In just two days, Lin Jinyue's family had already boarded a boat. The boat had passed Lishi County, and in another day, they would arrive in Guangcheng.

Lin Jinyue was initially a little seasick, but the thought of arriving in Guangcheng soon and being able to settle down filled her with excitement.

However, before reaching Guangcheng, the captain stopped at a certain place.

The captain said to them, "I'm afraid we can't go any further... Many people have died ahead, and we have to turn back. Do you want to stay here, or come back with us?"

Someone nearby advised, "You're from out of town, you don't know how dangerous this miasma is. Why don't you turn back first and then make a decision?"

The people on the boat were urging them to leave first.

The group panicked.

They've already reached Lingnan, why are they being made to turn back?

Moreover, with so many dead people around, they dare not stay in Lingnan indefinitely.

Everyone turned to look at Lin Shucheng.

Lin Jinyue asked the captain, "Uncle, were the deaths ahead caused by miasma?"

Captain: "Of course! This happens every year. It's tough to do shipping these days. People die every year, so we don't dare go that way. It's so unlucky that we ran into this again. I charged you fifty taels for shipping earlier. Let's go back first, and I'll refund you twenty taels."

This captain is an honest man.

However, after hearing that it was caused by miasma, Lin Shucheng thought it over and said to him, "Uncle, if you don't dare to go over there, just put us down here."

Going back is definitely out of the question.

Now that we've all come to Lingnan, how can we just go back like this?
