The two worked in perfect harmony, one firing arrows and the other hunting, and soon all the wild boars were lying in the ditch.
Several young wild boars were trampled to death by the adult wild boar in the chaos.
Jiang Yimian was at a loss when she saw the dozen or so wild boars piled up in the ditch.
Lu Cijian smiled instead, "I'll go get someone to help."
Jiang Yimian hesitated for a moment before clearing her throat and saying, "No need to call anyone, I have a way."
There were more than a dozen large wild boars and five or six small ones. Even if everyone in the small depression came to help, they would have to carry them several times. In addition, the place was remote and it was not easy to carry the wild boars. They would definitely be exhausted.
She might as well just pack everything up and take it all with her using her spatial storage.
Lu Cijian was taken aback, wondering what method it was, but seeing Jiang Yimian's serious expression, he hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Okay, I'll wait for you in the woods."
After saying that, he turned and went into the woods.
Although he didn't know what method Mianmian was planning to use, he subconsciously felt that it should be a secret.
Since Mianmian doesn't want to talk about it, it's better for him not to know.
Seeing that the other party showed no reluctance and did not ask any further questions, but turned and went into the woods, Jiang Yimian breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt that she had not misjudged him.
Lu Cijian is not the type to pry into things. Even if he knows something, he will pretend not to know and will not spread it around. He is a very reliable person.
When Jiang Yimian walked into the woods from the ditch, she was still carrying those few wild boars in her hands.
Seeing this, Lu Cijian quickly stepped forward and took the little wild boar before asking, "Is it done?"
Jiang Yimian nodded, "Okay, let's keep the wild boar for roast suckling pig tonight, and we can send the rest to town to sell."
With that, he walked straight ahead.
Lu Cijian glanced towards the ditch and saw that the wild boars that had filled the ditch were now gone, and the bloodstains on the ditch had been washed away by the water inside, as if what had just happened was a dream.
The two returned the little wild boar to the hollow, saying only that the pack of wild animals that had attacked Mimi had been cleared away.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their previously anxious hearts instantly calming down.
Jiang Yimian went down the mountain with Lu Cijian, intending to sell the wild boar first.
Fortunately, Zhao Dashu had already returned from delivering goods to town, and the mule cart was tied up in the yard. Jiang Yimian said something and then drove the mule cart to town with Lu Cijian.
The two first went to a secluded alley. Jiang Yimian conjured three wild boars from her spatial storage and placed them on a cart before leading the mule out of the alley again.
Lu Cijian stared at the wild boar that had appeared out of nowhere for a moment, then stepped forward to lead the mule and said with a smile, "Mianmian's secret is really frightening."
If he hadn't seen with his own eyes that the mule cart was empty when it entered the alley, he probably would have thought he was dreaming.
Jiang Yimian just smiled, watching the person next to her make a zipping motion around their mouth in a serious manner, "So, you have to keep it a secret, you know what you should say and what you shouldn't say, right?"
Lu Cijian was taken aback, staring at the girl's suddenly serious expression. He then solemnly mimicked her gesture of zipping up his lips before saying, "I understand, Miss, please rest assured."
Jiang Yimian chuckled and patted the boy's shoulder with a smile, "Good awareness."
They arrived at Fu Man Lou amidst laughter and chatter.
Upon seeing that it was Jiang Yimian, the shopkeeper hurriedly came over. When he heard that she wanted to sell wild boar, he excitedly agreed, weighed the wild boar, and promptly handed over the money.
Finally, of the ten wild boars, three went to Fumanlou Restaurant, three went to Xiyunlai Restaurant, and the remaining three were sent to Slaughterhouse Alley.
Wild boar tastes excellent; its meat is firmer and chewier than that of domesticated pigs, making it popular with many wealthy households, so there's no worry about sales.
Jiang Yimian and Lu Cijian were driving a mule cart down the street when they came face to face with a luxurious horse-drawn carriage. The carriage was surrounded by many guards who were driving away the people on the street. It was really too arrogant.
Jiang Yimian frowned, looking at the already narrow street that was completely occupied by carriages and guards, and felt somewhat dissatisfied.
But when the guards saw that Jiang Yimian and her companion were parked on the side of the road in their mule cart and showed no sign of moving, the dark-faced man at the head of the group of guards immediately shouted coldly.
"Where did this country bumpkin come from, blocking the way? Get out of the way!"
As he spoke, he was about to step forward and shove Lu Cijian, who was standing outside.
Before they even touched anyone, Jiang Yimian lashed out with her whip, saying, "This road isn't yours, why should we get out of your way?"
If you simply remove the guards around the carriage, the road will be much wider.
If the people in the carriage hadn't been putting on an act, the surrounding people could have passed through smoothly, and her mule cart would naturally have been able to as well.
Seemingly not expecting Jiang Yimian to make a move, the dark-faced man's arm was struck squarely, and a bloody welt instantly appeared on his arm.
He was so angry that he cursed, "You little bitch, how dare you lay a hand on me? I think you don't want to live anymore."
As he spoke, he waved to the people behind him.
Several guards rushed towards Jiang Yimian and her companion, clearly intending to attack them.
The crowd of people who were crowding around and dodging were momentarily afraid to look, feeling both angry and frightened.
Unexpectedly, before the guards could even get close to the two of them, they were either whipped away by Jiang Yimian or kicked to the ground by Lu Cijian.
Suddenly, a groan echoed through the street.
Those guards who hadn't yet gotten close didn't dare move when they saw the scene, fearing they might end up like the people lying on the ground.
The people inside the carriage finally realized something was wrong. Song Miaoyin looked displeased, flung open the carriage curtain, and snapped, "What are you doing? Aren't you leaving?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that the guards standing around the carriage all looked terrified, as if they had encountered something horrifying.
She immediately frowned, her gaze falling on the street not far from the carriage.
There were four or five Song family guards lying on the ground, while a mule cart was blocked by the street, with a man and a woman standing next to it.
She looked at the two of them with displeasure, her gaze lingering on Jiang Yimian's face for a moment before she remembered that it was the person she had met at Huichuntang last time. She immediately said with dissatisfaction, "It's you again. Not only did you trick me and my brother last time, but now you dare to block the Song family's carriage. Do you have a death wish?"
Although she was happy to receive the two raccoon-shaped soaps, she was furious when she realized that Huichuntang was using her to gain fame.
Unfortunately, the Lin family members were not easy to bully, and she couldn't get her revenge at all. Unexpectedly, when she came to Qinghe Town, she encountered the culprit.
She had long known that the person in front of her was just an ordinary farm girl with no powerful backing, and that she could easily manipulate her at will.
Jiang Yimian looked at Song Miaoyin and quickly remembered who this person was. After all, she was someone who had helped her business, and she remembered her clearly.
He immediately laughed and said, "So it's Miss Song. Are you here with the Song family to steal soap from Huichuntang again today?"
"If you had said so earlier, I would have definitely stood aside to make way for you."
