"Tell me, what happened?" Yun Mo said in a deep voice.
Yun Er then recounted the whole story of how he met Yu Xunmei in Yunzhou Prefecture.
Finally, he added, "Since returning from the pasture, she is truly beautiful and unique. Yu Xunmei, does she even deserve to be called Yu Xunmei? What a waste of such a good name."
"Yes, she deserved to die!" Yunying, standing at the back of the crowd, said indignantly.
Yunye, realizing that it was his own sister who had spoken, quickly scolded, "What do you, a girl, know?"
Upon hearing this, Yunying shrank back, trying to hide herself in the crowd.
Lin Yinan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Yun Er, how much medicine did you put in her?"
Yun Er's slender fingers stroked his smooth chin as he pondered the dosage of the medicine he had administered.
Seeing this, Yun Wu asked him directly, "How much of the medicine I gave you is left?"
Yun Er shrugged, "That's all! It's all downloaded."
"What a disaster! That's ten times the dosage, and you've squandered it all!" Yun Wu was heartbroken. He had no idea how many medicinal herbs he had to prepare for all that medicine.
Lin Yinan gave a thumbs-up to express his sincere admiration.
What a ruthless person!
Yun Wu murmured, "I'm afraid that the eldest daughter of the Yu family will be crippled if she doesn't die."
Yunye said, "My second uncle said in his letter that the eldest daughter of the Yu family has been seriously injured by this incident, and she may not be able to have children in the future."
“There’s no need to be soft-hearted when dealing with such vicious people,” Lin Yinan said.
This is her survival rule in the apocalypse: if you know the other person is ruthless and still don't dare to kill them, then you'll be the next one to suffer.
"Offending the Yu family will likely make it even more difficult to buy salt in the future." As a businessman, Wu Xingwang was thinking of the biggest weapon the other party currently held.
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, for they all knew what salt meant.
The Yu family controls all the salt in the southern region. Now that we've offended them, it will be harder than ever to buy salt from them.
Yun Mo looked at everyone and then repeated what Lin Yinan had said last night.
"We live close to the sea, so perhaps we could try extracting salt from seawater."
Yunye looked at him like he was an idiot. "Do you know how to turn seawater into salt?"
"Salt can be produced by boiling or by sun-drying."
Although Yun Mo was not good at studying, he had an amazing memory. Even though the book was incomplete, he remembered the steps of the salt-boiling and salt-drying methods perfectly.
“I remember that if you go over two hills from our horse farm, there’s a beach,” Yunyi said.
As the leader of the secret guards, Yun Yi had already thoroughly investigated the geography of Longtan County after arriving there.
Lin Shuo then remembered that one of the families in his group was a remote family located closest to the sea in Longtan County.
“Yes, yes, I heard one of my local farmers mention it; there is such a beach,” he quickly replied.
“That beach is not far from the landing site of the Japanese pirates in Xihe County,” Yun Yi added.
Lin Yinan said, "There's no rush to make salt. You should first survey the terrain thoroughly before we decide whether it's better to boil salt or sun-dry it."
"Sister-in-law is right!" Yunye agreed with Lin Yinan's opinion.
Yun Yi said, "Then I'll set off today."
"I'll find that family in a bit and show you the way," Lin Shuo said.
"What about the Yu family?" Yun Er was worried, after all, the matter was caused by him, and he seemed to have gone a bit too far.
"Scared? Why didn't you know that? We're penniless right now, so we're not afraid of the Yu family causing trouble."
Yun Mo glanced at him, looking down on his appearance. He thought his little sister must be bewitched to have fallen for him.
As a result, no one in Longtan County took Yun Zhenchuan's warning to heart and continued doing what they were doing.
After Lin Shuo brought the head of the household, Yun Mo personally selected a team of men and led Yun Yi into the mountains, heading towards the beach they were familiar with.
It takes three days to reach the beach from Longtan County, crossing two mountains, and the round trip takes six days.
Just two days after Yun Mo and his men left, Longtan County welcomed a group of uninvited guests.
He was a bandit leader who had narrowly escaped disaster before. He led a group of Japanese pirates to the gate of Longtan County and made a scene.
"Go and call your leader out. Our adults have something to say to you."
The guards shouted from the watchtower, "Just say what you have to say. There's no need to trouble our lord to come forward."
"This is our Lord Yuan Benhao, who is in charge of all matters in Nanman Prefecture. He has come here specifically to pay his respects to Lord Longtan County," the bandit leader said shamelessly.
Upon learning that the other party had revealed their name, the guards had no choice but to report to the county government.
Lin Yinan, who was about to take a nap, heard the report from the secret guard and knew that the bandit had brought Japanese pirates to give them a show of force. She quickly got up, took an AK from her spatial storage, and followed the secret guard out of the county government office and headed to the city wall.
"Are you the lord of Longtan County?" The Japanese pirate looked at Lin Yinan on the city wall with a puzzled expression, speaking in a broken Central Plains accent.
Lin Yinan smiled and said, "That's right, I am the city lord you are looking for."
When the Japanese pirates and bandits heard that she was in charge, they all showed mocking smiles. They thought that the city was actually managed by a woman, and that her strength was not necessarily that great.
Were those bandits just lying to them?
When the Japanese pirates saw a woman of stunning beauty standing on the city wall surrounded by his men, their lewd faces immediately lit up with a smile. "I am still Kato Shinichiro, the magistrate of Xihe County. It is an honor to meet you, Miss."
"Tell me your purpose for coming here?" Lin Yinan asked directly, not wanting to waste time with pleasantries.
Kato Shinichiro's face stiffened, and he said awkwardly, "I came here to form an alliance with you, Miss. I wonder if you would be interested?"
"I didn't mean that, you can leave now."
Lin Yinan coldly refused, showing no respect whatsoever to the other party.
"you……"
Kato Shinichiro was furious and felt utterly humiliated.
The bandit leader seized the opportunity to fan the flames, saying, "Lord Kato, this woman is ungrateful and doesn't even give you face. She should quickly gather a large army and raze this mere Longtan County to the ground."
“Yes! At the very least, it should be incorporated into our territory,” the other bandits echoed.
Upon hearing this, Kato Shinichiro frowned, feeling quite displeased.
“Lord of the city, I came here sincerely to form an alliance with you, but you are so arrogant and ungrateful. Since that’s the case, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
No sooner had he finished speaking than a loud "bang!" was heard, and the bandit leader next to Kato Shinichiro fell to the ground with a bloody hole in his forehead, from which blood was gushing.
Kato Shinichiro turned pale with fright and hurriedly shouted to his guards, "Quick! Protect the emperor! There's an enemy attack!"
The Japanese pirates' ranks were immediately thrown into chaos.
Yunye and the others on the city wall were even more shocked. Before they could react, the bandits fell down.
The weapon in Lin Yinan's hand was so powerful that it was even faster than a bow and arrow.
Yunye steadied himself and began to systematically direct his guards and troops in a counterattack, routing the Japanese pirates.
