Gu Nanji opened the envelope and saw the handwriting in his own unique style. He found it a little funny. He raised the corner of his mouth and continued reading:
Hello, General Gu.
Oh, let me introduce myself first. My name is Yi Yami, and I am a little cook from Lvjia Village, Luguang Town.
You must be wondering why you received this letter, but it doesn’t matter. The secret cannot be revealed.
The point is, I know that the sixty jars of juice I sent over will play a crucial role for you.
You can give this juice to your injured soldiers to drink. This juice has the effect of detoxifying, relieving pain and restoring spirits.
If you're skeptical, try an experiment on an injured mouse.
Oh, by the way, I am not doing good things for nothing. If you win the battle and drive back the Sars people, it will be the best reward for me. Because I really want to live a peaceful life, it is up to you to guard the border.
Also, don’t forget to pay the delivery guy, Mr. Yu. Ask him for the specific fee.
If you don't have money, please write a letter and ask Brother Yu to bring it back. I will pay for you and the soldiers. Just think of me as a good person who will do my best to help you.
Oh, I forgot to tell you, remember to ask them to take the tank back, the tank is at a different price.
Last signature: Yi Yami
Seeing his bright smile, King Xiaoyao leaned over to see what he had said. The next second, Gu Nanji put the letter away and turned to ask Yu Xiaofu, "Young man, how much do I need to pay you?"
Yu Xiaofu wondered if he had just gotten lucky, but on the way here he'd run into the Happy King, who had someone bring him water. He'd asked them where they were going, and they'd said they were going to the border. Seeing they were looking for his son, he'd given them a ride. He'd only just realized that the older man was the Happy King, and that this young-looking man, a few years younger than him, was actually General Gu. He was thrilled.
"Money? Huh? Oh, well, originally it was 720 taels, but I told Sister Xiaomi that this is the first business order for our Shuangyu Express, so we will only charge 500 taels." Yu Xiaofu was stunned for a moment when asked, and then quickly answered.
"Okay, thank you. As for the juice, just give it to our brothers, and you can go find my deputy general Wu Yuanlou to collect the money later. After we finish processing, I will give you the jar. There is also a letter. Please wait a moment, I will give it to you later, and you can help me take it back to her." Gu Nanji rarely said a lot.
Yu Xiaofu nodded and said yes, then went downstairs.
King Xiaoyao glanced at his son and said, "Don't you want to go and take a look?"
"No need, just ask Wu Yuanlou, Wu Yuantai and others to do the experiment. It's okay, just pour the corresponding quantities into the well. The other party only put in that much poison when they poisoned it, and the toxicity was so strong. We have so much juice now, so we are not afraid." Gu Nanji said calmly.
King Xiaoyao patted his shoulder in satisfaction. Gu Nanji groaned, and King Xiaoyao was terrified the next second. "What's wrong? My dear son, are you hurt?"
Gu Nanji was helpless and told him to calm down. "Dad, it's okay. It's just a minor wound."
King Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Can you tell me about the situation on the battlefield?"
The two talked for a long time.
…
Elsewhere, Wu Yuanlou had Bai Congjiang examine the juice. After some testing, Bai Congjiang proved it was non-toxic and even highly nutritious. The rats, previously languishing in pain, quickly regained their spirits after drinking the juice, and were soon able to run and scurry. Bai Congjiang's eyes lit up at the jars of juice. "Deputy General Wu, could you spare some for my experiments? I want to see what this juice is."
Wu Yuanlou was also shocked by the power of the juice. After listening, he nodded and said, "You can keep it, but you can only keep a little. General Gu said that one well and one tank are enough. If there is no problem, give the rest to the wounded."
"Okay, no problem, I got it." Bai Congjiang was satisfied. As long as he could get a little, it would be fine. He was not greedy.
After observing for a while and confirming that the rats were not a problem, Wu Yuantai ordered his men to carefully pour the juice from each vat into each well, neither too much nor too little. The red juice quickly dissipated into the well water.
"What are you arguing about?" Wu Yuantai was checking whether the tasks were being carried out properly everywhere when he saw a crowd gathered in front of him, making a lot of noise.
"General! Now that you are here, please give us some justice. The Huang family relied on their wealth to dig a well at the beginning. Later, when the city needed water, they did not open it to us like other people who had wells at home. At that time, I knocked on their door, but they refused to open it. Now that we have the antidote, they start to pester me and ask us to pour the antidote into their well. How can this be possible?" The little soldier spoke with tears in his voice.
Wu Yuantai reached out and wiped his hand. "Why are you crying, silly boy? Pour the water for his family. The water under Lawa City is flowing. If you don't pour it for him, it will affect the people of the whole city."
After hearing this, the young soldier got angry, but he still did as he was told. He took his men and walked angrily towards the Huang family. After he finished pouring the money, he left angrily again.
The Huang family also knew that they were in the wrong, so they kept their heads down and didn't say anything else.
Wu Yuantai's men quickly emptied the water from all the wells in the city, leaving only a dozen or so jars, which they brought back to the camp. Wu Yuantai had the juice distributed, with the wounded drinking it first, and then the other brothers.
Everyone in Yin Weiguo's army, whether they were wounded or newly arrived reinforcements, even Gu Beijian, drank the juice that Yi Yami had sent.
