Lin Yinan and the Yun brothers decided to cook a meal to celebrate their hard work over the past few days.
With a wave of his hand, Lin Yinan ordered the people in the breeding area to drag out a 300-pound pig, and then ordered Lin Yiheng to take out 400 pounds of rice from the warehouse to steam rice.

Suddenly, a group of secret guards rushed in from outside the county government office.
"Report! The deliverymen from Changyi County have arrived!"
