After Jinshangyue cast the bait, she left it alone.
As for whether they can raise large enough fish to be slaughtered in the future, that depends on the fish's own abilities.
She had plenty of both potions and elixirs.
What is rare and precious outside, and priceless, can be eaten as an everyday snack and drinking water by her.
She can cast a wide net with these things, and as long as she can catch one or two fat fish that she can kill, she won't lose money.
Jin Shangyue set up the formation, enveloping the entire mountain, before heading to the mine.
The Chang family's mine is clearly larger than the Qi family's.
However, when they left, just like the Qi family, they took everything they could with them.
They truly did their job, ensuring that, apart from energy mines, Jinshangyue would not be allowed to gain even the slightest advantage.
Besides the Chang family members who evacuated, 1,897 people remained at the mine.
The person in charge was still a temporary appointment, someone Xiang Lin had borrowed from Yu Weilan.
After meeting with the people and learning about the situation of the mine, Jin Shangyue made some changes.
The general direction is similar to the previous mine's arrangement.
Jin Shangyue still met with everyone in the mine, casting a loyalty spell on each of them to ensure that nothing went wrong.
Another group of capable people were selected for middle and senior management.
Then, instruct the steward to train as many successors as possible, and only withdraw from the Yu family when a satisfactory successor has been trained.
Following the example, they quickly made some changes.
Jin Shangyue stayed for two more days, leaving two shadow guards to train the local security team before leaving with the rest of the people.
Next, we will tour the forty-two privately owned states.
Jin Shangyue first went to the three states where the rebellion had occurred.
Based on distance, the first stop was Huanzhou.
On the way there, Lin Chun did his homework again and reported the situation in Huanzhou to Jin Shangyue.
"Huanzhou has thirteen cities in total, with a total permanent population of 41 million. The main city is Fengxi City."
“Huanzhou originally belonged to the Yuan family’s private property. Half a month ago, after the Yuan family transferred Huanzhou to their master, they directly withdrew all government officials from the thirteen cities of Huanzhou.”
"Not only that, but the five thousand private guards stationed outside the city have also all been withdrawn."
"The rebels in Huanzhou thus easily occupied Fengxi City, and have now taken over and incorporated the surrounding six cities."
"The remaining six cities were also left unsupervised because all the military and political officials and the main force had withdrawn, and all the Yuan family's properties in the cities were shut down overnight."
"The six cities were in chaos, with local powerful families and groups of thugs rising up and fighting for territory on their own."
"Now the six cities have been divided into dozens of small territories, and everything is in chaos."
Lin Chun turned on the computer and projected the data.
"These six people are the masterminds behind the chaos in Huanzhou, and they are also the largest and most difficult to deal with among all the chaotic forces in Huanzhou."
"Zhang Fen, 47 years old, is the leader of a private mercenary group in Huanzhou. He has 6,000 men under his command. He is radical, unrestrained, and bloodthirsty. He often leads his men to double-cross each other, making him one of the notorious evil forces in Huanzhou."
"Lin Chenyou, 35 years old, is the son of the richest man in Fengxi City. He studied at the Third Academy of Shenyuan for three years, but was expelled after offending powerful and noble families."
"After traveling for several years, I returned to Fengxi City two years ago and started a security company with about 5,000 employees."
"Yang Chen, 29 years old, is the young master of the Blood Wolf Gang, a private mercenary group in Huanzhou, and has about 6,000 men under his command."
"These three currently occupy Fengxi City and six surrounding cities, with each faction controlling approximately two cities."
"There are also three others, Jiang Wei, Peng Tianyue, and Zong Yan, who are currently the main forces in the other six cities, each with two to three thousand men under their command..."
After Jin Shangyue finished reviewing the information on the leaders of these six major forces and had a general idea of their strengths, she directly had her spaceship stealthily land above Fengxi City.
Although Huanzhou is owned by the Yuan family, it is not located in the central part of the Longwu Empire, but in a remote border region.
It is close to the medium-sized country of Lingling.
The surrounding area consists of many small and medium-sized countries, so most of the goods for trade between these countries are sourced through Huanzhou.
After all, Huanzhou is a private prefecture belonging to a top-tier noble family, so it naturally has many good things that middle and lower-level countries do not have.
Therefore, Huanzhou's annual tax revenue is very considerable.
Not to mention the Yuan family's businesses in Huanzhou, which earn at least several billion yuan every year.
Of course, this mainly refers to some gray industries, such as the underground black market, auction houses, pharmaceutical companies, technology companies, and so on.
Now that the Yuan family's businesses and the officials under their command have all been withdrawn, the locals naturally know what happened.
When the tiger is away, the monkeys naturally get restless and come out to claim their own territory.
Jin Shangyue stood at the assembly point, looking at the tens of thousands of private guards lined up.
"This is your first task, and it's a very simple one. I hope you can give me the best result as quickly as possible."
"Do not harm the innocent or disturb the common people. Arrest all the rebels. If anyone resists, kill them."
"If anyone surrenders, bring them back first."
"Everyone will split into thirteen groups and work together to capture the thirteen cities of Huanzhou."
The 73,000 private guards shouted in unison with resounding voices: "Yes! We guarantee to complete the mission perfectly!"
The next step is to deploy the battle plan.
Jin Shangyue stood to the side, watching Commander Yan Ye discuss and deploy battle plans with his officers, without interfering.
Yan Ye knew this was the first real test. Although his master was watching from the side, which made him a little nervous, it also made him more cautious, serious, meticulous and rigorous.
After a series of battle plans were discussed and everyone agreed on their points, the tasks were assigned.
After getting everything sorted out in two hours, everyone saluted Jin Shangyue and quickly got to work.
Private guards have their own combat equipment.
Regardless of whose private guard it is, their basic combat equipment includes mechs, flying vehicles, military-grade energy weapons, and cold weapons and magical artifacts such as swords and spears.
As for the private guards under Jinshangyue's command, most of them were won back from various families.
The private guards gave it to her, but confiscated all the equipment they had.
I really wouldn't even give her one more point.
Therefore, before setting off, Jin Shangyue spent a large sum of military funds and asked her father to help equip her with a batch of basic combat equipment.
As for what comes next, she plans to personally lead these people to acquire a batch of good equipment.
They need to be equipped with superior features completely different from other private guards, ensuring that once they leave, they will be the brightest and richest among the Shenyuan private guards.
For the rest of the time, Jin Shangyue stayed on the spaceship and watched the battle via live projection.
She was enjoying the lunch that Ji Chaoyun had prepared for her in advance, and drinking the specially made spiritual milk. She felt so comfortable and relaxed.
Lin Chun was working nearby, continuing to organize the data from various states that would be needed next.
Seeing his master enjoying delicious food, drinking spiritual liquid brimming with spiritual energy, and watching the private guards' battle livestream with utter contentment, he couldn't help but feel a heart attack.
There is no harm without comparison.
I'm working myself to the bone, while my boss is bored out of his mind.
He had never seen any master as leisurely as his own!
