Chapter 480 A Family of纨绔 (Wán kù, a spoiled and dissolute family) Causes the Death of the Entire Court (33)
It took Jin Shouan about fifteen minutes to process the fact that his younger sister was plotting to build an army and rebel.
He frowned; his mind had completely shut down due to today's stimulation. To protect his overheated brain reactor, he chose the simplest way to cope.
"Do whatever you want, I'll listen to you."
Jin Shu nodded in satisfaction.
Yes, that's more like it.
Before leaving, Jin Shou'an knelt on the ground and gave all the luminous pearls a deep, devout kiss.
"Seeing is equivalent to getting, that's enough."
Although Jin Shu couldn't see his expression, she could guess what kind of mess he looked like even with her toes.
"then."
A yellow cloth bag was thrown over, and Jin Shouan caught it instinctively, then quickly looked down and opened it.
Inside, there were bright yellow golden melon seeds, all dazzling and gleaming.
The bag was full, heavy, and quite substantial.
"Take it. These are the things the concubines in the harem usually use for amusement. There's only this one bag."
Each bag contains hundreds of seeds, each one a heavy, solid sunflower seed. The production process is ingenious, making them look exactly like real sunflower seeds.
Jin Shu gave it to him because she realized that the production process of these melon seeds was not simple. It would be a pity to take them to a gold shop to be melted down. It would be better to leave them to the Jin family as a treasure to be passed down.
What was truly to be melted down were the large gold ingots weighing several kilograms inside the cave.
These gold ingots are all engraved with the unique symbols of the Liang Dynasty, so this kind of gold certainly cannot be used.
Stepping out of the cave, the wolf pack was still outside, some standing, some lying down, in various postures, and wolf cubs running and playing around their mother.
The black wolf that Jin Shu had rescued was now lying coiled on the highest slope, bathed in moonlight. Its strong and slender figure seemed to be shrouded in darkness. Under the moonlight, it slowly turned its face, its deep green wolf eyes calmly gazing down at the pack of wolves below.
Then Jin Shou'an suddenly made eye contact with it. Even though it was just a wolf, Jin Shou'an inexplicably had an urge to kneel down and kowtow to it when they looked at each other.
Damn it, these wolves have become monsters.
No wonder my father sent a large force to annihilate this wolf pack back then, but in the end, they all returned empty-handed and suffered heavy casualties.
Now that he had seen this wolf king, Jin Shou'an had a feeling that it might be smarter than most of the people in that expeditionary force.
Upon seeing Jin Shu, Black Wolf immediately abandoned his wolf king demeanor, slowly got up, leisurely walked to Jin Shu's side, and then stretched lazily around her feet.
Jin Shu reached out her hand, and the wolf king, seemingly knowing her poor eyesight, actually offered his enormous wolf head to Jin Shu's palm.
Jin Shouan stared at all in disbelief and asked.
Are you sure you just helped it set up the animal trap?
It seems to me like it's directly recognizing you as its own mother.
Jin Shu rubbed the wolf's head under her hand and smiled slightly.
"Who knows? Maybe that's the power of plot design."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"It's nothing, you wouldn't understand even if I told you."
Why is this wolf kissing and licking Jin Shu?
That's how it was described in the original story.
The female protagonist, Jin Chuyao, accidentally saved a seriously injured wolf king. From then on, the wolf king became loyal to her, devoted to her, and obeyed her every call, summoning all the forest wolves to serve her.
Jin Shu simply did the exact same thing and, following the plot, gained the wolf king's trust.
Sure enough, the female lead always manages to do things surprisingly smoothly. Although she seems to have stumbled into a dangerous place deep in the mountains, she manages to win the male lead's heart while also winning over the loyalty of a pack of wolves.
Jin Shu wasn't really interested in real things, but she quite liked these fluffy little creatures, so keeping them as pets was fine.
Under the cover of night, the brother and sister led a team to transport more than a dozen boxes of gold by waterway to the Jin family's gold shop.
The Jin family's gold shops practically monopolized the gold and silver jewelry business in the entire He'an County.
Relying on this strength, Jin Shu ordered, with Jin Shou'an personally supervising, to begin smelting gold.
Nowadays, gold is generally circulated in the form of gold ingots and gold bars.
Jin Shu specially commissioned the creation of a gold bar mold with a special stamp engraved on the back, and then began mass production.
According to the original plot, the autumn banquet is about to begin, and the banquet venue is built against the mountain. In the center of the huge stage, the singer dances gracefully to the music of the zither, and all the guests sit around the stage, with fruits and delicacies laid out in front of them, which is extremely abundant.
This autumn banquet was entirely organized by Madam Jin.
There are only a few prominent families in He'an County. Apart from the Jin family, there are several other families that were once well-known noble families in the capital. In order to avoid the turmoil in the capital, they voluntarily retreated to a small town.
Madam Jin sat with Jin Shu at the head table. As the hostess, Madam Jin had to deal with guests who came from all directions.
Jin Shu was bored. Her eyesight was poor, and no matter who stood in front of her, they were basically just a moving mosaic, and she couldn't tell the difference between men and women. So no matter who it was, she would greet them when Madam Jin told her to, and sit down when she told her to, trying her best to play the role of a good daughter with a stable mood.
Every year, the autumn feast ends with an autumn hunt.
The autumn hunt is a very formal ceremony. First, pigs, cattle and sheep are offered to the mountain god. Then, a shaman is invited to perform a ritual. After the ritual, pigs, sheep and chickens are slaughtered and their blood is offered to the mountain.
"The mountain god has agreed, so you can go into the mountains to hunt without worry."
For Jin Shu, who has lived for tens of thousands of years, after witnessing this flawed and baseless sacrificial ceremony, she had only one thought.
Theological education in this era has a long way to go and a heavy responsibility.
Mountain god, though I don't know if there is one in this mountain.
But in that case, it's highly unlikely that it will happen.
Otherwise, with such a perfunctory sacrificial ceremony, these people would have already been taught a lesson by the mountain god a few years ago when they entered the mountains.
As her thoughts returned to normal, Jin Shu prepared to leave, but Madam Jin pulled her back.
"The young master of the Li family in Zhongcheng is exceptionally talented and handsome. He is expected to pass the imperial examination this year."
Your father values him highly, and your mother also thinks he's a good person..."
“Mother, fate brings people together even from a thousand miles away. If I am destined to meet that young master Li, you don’t need to tell me that we will have a chance.”
"Then it seems you two are indeed destined to meet. Li Er, come here."
Mrs. Jin waved to someone not far away.
A man in white walked over. Although Jin Shu couldn't see his face, she could keenly sense his impatience and indifference.
Even so, the man still behaved politely, gently, and refinedly.
"Li Yuzhi has met Miss Jin."
Li Yuzhi?
A very familiar name.
Jin Shu has a good memory and can recall things after a little thought. No wonder the name sounded familiar. This Li Yuzhi is one of the heroine's many suitors. He is the youngest son of the Grand Commandant of the Li family and a future top scholar with a promising future.
