Back in the desolate little courtyard in Gan County, everything was back to normal.

Although Ji Changying only paid five days' rent, time was passing, but the Wuya people did not come to touch the place.

She felt somewhat satisfied with the Wuya people.

After opening the gate, she had all the carriages parked in the yard. She looked at the guards with an uncertain look in her eyes.

When Lao Shi and the others arrived here, they put all the swords in their hands back to their original places. At this moment, they inexplicably felt a chill on their backs.

"Okay, you can go home now." Ji Changying said to them.

When the twelve people heard this, a look of confusion appeared in their eyes.

go home?

Where is their home?

Liu Shicong looked at them curiously. He thought these people were the guards hired by Brother Li, but he didn't expect that they were hired on short notice.

"I've already paid your sister your wages before you left. Do you have any objections?"

Ji Changying looked at them with an unfriendly look.

The eldest brother's face showed a bit of embarrassment: "We know, but... I want to ask, where is our... home?"

Liu Shicong widened his eyes, feeling that something was wrong with these people.

Ji Changying also looked very surprised: "Where is your home? Why are you asking me?"

They were silent for a moment and then all nodded.

Ji Changying frowned: "I seem to have heard your sister say that you are from Xiaotian Village, go back on your own."

The boss clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for letting me know. If you need anything in the future, please contact us again."

After saying that, he waved to his brothers: "Let's go!"

Liu Shicong looked at Ji Changying in surprise as he watched them leave. "Brother Li, these people are quite skilled, are you just going to let them go like that?"

He muttered softly: "If it were me, I would pay a large sum of money to keep him..."

Ji Changying glanced at him and said, "Within two days, I want you to buy a shop in this city and this yard as well."

"What? Doesn't this yard belong to Brother Li?"

Liu Shicong looked at her in surprise.

"I want to know the results within two days. You can decide the price."

Ji Changying took out a thousand taels of silver from her bosom and handed it to him.

Liu Shicong knew that this was not a gift of one thousand taels of silver, but a test for him.

He took it solemnly: "I only recognize you, I don't recognize anyone else! Although I have many doubts about you now, I will do things well."

Brother Li still hasn't explained to him who the person who signed the contract is, so Liu Shicong had to remind her.

Ji Changying remained noncommittal: "You leave here now and find an inn. I'll come find you here in two days."

After she finished her instructions, she went straight to the carriage and horse shop to find Wu Yaren.

On the way, he adjusted himself and turned back into the appearance of a butler.

When she arrived at the carriage, her special ability swept over her and went straight to the position of the Wuya people.

Seeing her come back, Wu Yaren's face showed surprise: "You're back?!"

Ji Changying nodded reservedly: "Because of some things, the master was delayed on the road and came back late. The rent for that courtyard must not be enough, right? I came here this time to settle it all at once."

The smile on Wu Yaren's face deepened. "Okay! I figured you must have been delayed on the way. There's no rush to take this small amount of money. Just get back safely."

Ji Changying didn't take the other party's flattering words to heart. After all, she had paid a deposit of one hundred taels of silver here.

Compared to the deposit, the rent is really a small amount of money.

"The carriage is in the yard. Come with me and check it out so we can settle the deal."

Ji Changying wanted to get this matter over with as soon as possible.

The Wuya people saw the impatience on her face, so they asked someone to follow her back to the courtyard. After checking to make sure there was no problem, the two parties settled the bill happily.

"If you need anything in the future, just come and find me. I'm usually at the carriage and horse shop. Just call me Wu Yaren."

Seeing Ji Changying readily pay the rent she owed, Wu Yaren's face became even more enthusiastic.

"Maybe there's a chance."

Ji Changying nodded perfunctorily.

The people of Wuya did not force it, as business is all about fate.

As long as you can serve people well, who knows, you may have a long-lasting relationship with them in the future!

Ji Changying tidied herself up again and took off her disguise. She instantly felt several pounds lighter.

Looking at the spaces that had been vacated with great difficulty, which were now filled with food again, she smiled bitterly.

If this continues, when will it end?

There's almost no place to put it!

Fortunately, she had made up her mind to let Liu Shicong continue to run the grain store, and in the future, it would spread to several nearby states and even the entire Dali Dynasty.

If Liangzhou really goes to war one day, then these things in her space will be the reserve food and fodder.

She didn't want to cause any trouble, so she walked out of the city to a less crowded place, used her internal energy and ran towards Xiaotian Village.

Along the way, I also saw the twelve people who were walking and asking for directions.

It would have taken her less than half an hour to ride the horse, but she ran for an hour before she got home.

Ji Changying was very dissatisfied with his speed, but there was nothing he could do for the time being.

Xiaotian Village has become more lively because many families have moved in in the past six months.

"A woman like you looks like she could be blown down by a gust of wind. If it weren't for Liu Guizi who liked you, who would want someone like you? Not to mention that you have such a burden. If it were you, I'd better marry and have a child while you can still have children. Then you can have more ease."

The matchmaker, wearing a red flower on her head and with a big black mole above her lip, stopped Lin on the village road, waving her handkerchief as if she was concerned about her.

Lin felt sick at heart as she watched. Ji Ruofeng, who was standing next to her, had already known what was right and wrong after six months of torture.

Hearing the matchmaker's words, he was furious: "My mother is a noble lady in Beijing after all, and she used to be the wife of an official. How dare you humiliate her! Get out of here right now! If you don't leave, I'll beat you to death, believe it or not!"

Upon hearing this, the matchmaker spat a mouthful of thick phlegm in Ji Ruofeng's face: "You little bastard, you don't know what's good for you! A phoenix that has fallen to the ground is worse than a chicken. If you weren't a burden to your mother, would she have to marry a cripple? If I were you, I'd hang myself earlier to save you from living a dishonest life! If it weren't for your mother's big butt and good fertility, she wouldn't even have gotten the chance with a cripple!"

Lin could accept being criticized, but when she saw the matchmaker treating her son like this, she was furious and reached out to pull the matchmaker's hair: "You old hag! You said such nonsense in front of my child, I will tear your mouth apart today!"

The matchmaker had her hair pulled, and she didn't want to be outdone, so she grabbed Lin's face.

Ji Ruofeng's eyes were full of anger. He looked at the ground, picked up a stone and smashed it on the back of the matchmaker's head.

“Murder!!!”

Someone nearby came out to watch the fun and screamed in surprise when he saw this scene.

The matchmaker was hit on the back of the head, and she slowly fell to the ground with her eyes wide open.

Ji Ruofeng's face turned pale. When he heard someone shouting "murder", he was so scared that the stone in his hand fell to the ground immediately.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Lin pulled Ji Ruofeng and ran away.

Ji Changying frowned and glanced at the two people running away, then picked up the matchmaker and rushed towards Ji's house.
