The patient’s family said that the patient had severed ties with them for many years and even agreed to give up treatment. They added, ” Ye Cheng, my daughter has a fever and needs to go to the hospital. You and I have business engagements and can’t get away. Today is my wedding day. If you go out to do business again , my mother and I will completely sever ties with you. We’ll consider you a burden. Fine, let’s cut ties. What good is more money ? I’m sorry to them . God , let me live again to atone for my sins. I’m reborn. If you dare touch our food again, we’ll sever ties with you and disown you, you gambling-addicted father. In this life, I will treat my family well and never let them down again. ” They continued, ” Ye Cheng, the gambling den is open today. If you don’t have money, you can use your wife as collateral. The boss will sell me. Don’t worry , with me here, no one can take you away, my little wife .” Come on , Ye Cheng, are you crazy? Don’t you want to win money anymore ? I’m quitting gambling starting today. Don’t come to my house again . If you dare to come again, I’ll break your legs . Are you hungry? There’s nothing to eat at home. I’ll go out and find something to eat. [Host detected: Meets the binding conditions for the “Leaving Feathers in the Wild Goose” space. Bind? Rebirth with a cheat code .

This function is not bad! System energy is insufficient; some functions are temporarily unavailable. Please continue to absorb more energy to complete the upgrade. I see. So where do I go to collect energy? Host, the rarer the resource, the more energy the system can absorb. Host, you can search for more valuable resources. Oh ! I’m starving! Where am I going to find you any valuable items? Sigh, I’d better let my family have a full meal first! Ah! It’s me! I’ll beat you to death! You never learn! Did you go gambling with that scoundrel again? Mom , I didn’t… ” I went to the mountains to catch rabbits for gambling , and you were too lazy to even carry a hoe. You managed to catch a rabbit, did you steal it? I don’t condone thievery. Dad, Dazhu , I’m not lying . Look , I really caught it myself. I didn’t gamble. And Mom, I’ll never gamble again. I want you all to live a good life. Dad, can we eat this rabbit? I don’t eat meat, I just want some soup. Yes, you can eat it. Hurry up and have your mother make rabbit meat for us. Don’t ask anymore , hurry up and stew it for the children to nourish them. Don’t let this heartless person ruin everything. Mom , you eat this wild vegetable porridge first. The children are hungry, so I made some wild vegetable porridge. Your mother just gave me two eggs, and I saved them for you. Hey, how can we just eat this ? Qingwan , hurry up and stew the meat. Dad’s word is law. If you don’t give me meat, I’ll find the neighbors to judge and protect me .” “I’ll make sure there ‘s enough . I ‘m going to chop wood. There’ll be meat to eat! Don’t believe him , he might be up to something again. As long as we have meat, that’s enough. Don’t think he’ll become a better person just because you do some work. You’d better hide the grains he gave you well ; I borrowed them from my second brother’s family. Remember to eat them sparingly. I have to go back now; there’s still work to do at home. Okay, I understand. If things could stay this way, Mom would be the head of the household. Oh dear, oh dear , oh dear, we’re practically destitute ! Host System Shop: Energy can be exchanged for resources. Do you want to exchange it? This energy can be exchanged for resources , and they don’t seem very expensive. Exchanging it now won’t solve the problem. ” It seems I still have to go to the city. I ‘ll secretly switch them out and bring them back. I ‘m worried there won’t be enough rabbits, so I mixed in some wild vegetables to save on the meat. Hey, I ‘ll just have some vegetables with the kids; you can have all the meat. Hey , I’m sorry, I was wrong, please don’t hit me. I’ll give you all the wild vegetables and save the meat for you. That beast, how could he hurt such a good wife ? Qingwan , don’t worry, I’ll never hit you again. Dazhu woke me up ! I’m a bastard, don’t worry, from now on I’ll treat you wholeheartedly. How could you be so careless ? Okay, I’ll trust you one more time. You’re injured , go rest first. Dazhu and Erzhu, come help quickly. Thank you. Qingwan, the meat is ready! Qingwan , your cooking is amazing , even better than the restaurants in the city ! How can a haphazard stew compare to the city’s? Dazhu and Erzhu , you give this bowl to your second wife, and this bowl to your second uncle. When our family was in trouble, they helped us a lot. Now that we have meat , we should all eat together. You really want to give some to Mom and Second Brother? Yes, this family should take care of each other, right? Dad promises to deliver it . Brother , wait, I can carry it too . Mom , you eat too. Dad, you eat too. We’ll eat when Dazhu and Erzhu come back. Hey , look at Daya, her drool is flowing like a waterfall. You eat while it’s hot. They’ll get some too. You eat first. Hey, let’s all eat together! Eat quickly ! Ding! A malicious value is detected nearby. Please be aware of safety. Why is there a system crisis warning? Ye Cheng, this little cutie, is actually eating meat at home. Next time he comes to me, I’ll definitely win all his food and money. This meat is so delicious, so delicious! The little brat has it in his hand . “What are you holding , Grandpa? This is our meat ! Why should I show it to you? This is your meat ! Is your name written on it ? This is our meat, in my opinion. Give it to me! You dare to bully my nephew, Ye Lao Er ? This has nothing to do with you! You two little brats, he stole our meat ! No, this is my dad who sent me to deliver it to Second Uncle’s house ! You’re trying to steal our meat ! Bah! Bullying a child and lying ! If you don’t leave, I’ll have the village head arrest you! Stealing a child’s things, believe it or not, I’ll beat you up right now! Ye Lao Er, don’t think you can get away with this just because you ‘re tall and strong. I can’t afford to mess with you, but I can at least avoid you! Second Uncle, this meat was sent by my dad to deliver to you. We just happened to run into you. Now we can go home and eat meat earlier! Third Brother, where did you get the meat? I heard from a family in the next village that they sold their daughter for meat. Could it be spoiled? This Third Brother must be trying to sell his eldest daughter. We have to hurry back and stop him! Third Brother , hehehehehe… Third Brother , tell me honestly, where did this meat come from? And why did you suddenly send meat ? Are you trying to take advantage of his eldest daughter? So you suddenly…” “You ‘re so good to us , are you going to sell Daya? Second Brother, what are you saying? How could I sell Daya? This meat is wild rabbit I picked up on the mountain. You didn’t even care if the children went hungry before, and now you’re suddenly being so generous, who would believe that? I know I wasn’t human before , but I’ve really changed now. You have to give me a chance to correct myself. I’ll make our lives better and better from now on. So you really didn’t plan to sell Daya. Daya is such a thoughtful daughter, how could I sell her? Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law , don’t worry, even if I starve to death, I won’t even think about taking the children. I’ll believe you this time. You spendthrift! How much grain can this bowl of meat be exchanged for? And you’re still so ostentatious! Do you know that Dazhu and the others were almost robbed by Ge Wulai? What? Dazhu was targeted by Ge Wulai and his gang? No wonder the system had a crisis warning. I guess Dazhu and Erzhu were targeted by Ge Wulai as soon as they went out. Luckily, we arrived in time, and the children are alright. This Ge Wulai, even if I don’t confront him, he still dares to come looking for me! I … I… I… Don’t be impulsive! He actually fought to the death for the children ! Ye Laosan has really changed ! Ge…” “You scoundrel who dared to bully my son! I’ll beat you to death today, Ye Cheng! Are you crazy? Can’t you speak properly? What are you talking about ? Why didn’t you speak properly when you snatched my son ? Enough ! Fighting in broad daylight ! Do you have no respect for rules ? Village head, you have to stand up for me! You said he hit me for no reason and then accused me of stealing ! You didn’t snatch my son in the street, did you? You didn’t steal his flesh? Believe me or not, I’ll take you straight to the county magistrate! You assaulted and robbed someone in the street! What do you think the magistrate will say? Ah… Ah… Ah… I was just playing around with the child. Stealing chickens and dogs, and even snatching a child, you’re a real scoundrel! ” Ye Cheng used to follow his example, but now he protects the children. It seems he’s really changed. ” Playing around and robbing people from our own village? You’re punished by having to repair the road at the village entrance. If you do it again, you’ll be sent to the county magistrate and expelled from the village. ” ” Little girl , Daddy was really amazing today ! Daddy should severely punish this scoundrel for bullying people. Hmph , I thought you were lying to us. I didn’t expect you to actually stand up for us. I misunderstood you. Good child , Daddy won’t make the same mistake again. You all come and supervise Daddy, okay?” Okay, okay, he seems to have really changed. Dazhu, Erzhu, come here. You’re still young, sleeping on the ground will make you catch a cold. Mom will sleep with you . You and Dad sleep in the bed, we’re all hot and warm, we’ll sleep on straw. A family can’t sleep separately, we can just squeeze in. Brother , we can finally sleep in the bed! That’s great! Dad , we’ll just sleep in a small space on the bed , we won’t take up much room. It seems I need to hurry and find a way to exchange supplies for money so Qingwan and the children can have a better life. This shop can also exchange energy, that’s perfect! I’ll go into the mountains tomorrow and exchange for more wild game and this Ganoderma lucidum to sell in the city. I’m going to wander around the mountains to see if I can find some food. Stay home and take good care of the children. Here are some wild vegetable cakes, take them and eat them on the way. Remember not to go deep into the mountains, there are wild boars there. Come back early. Don’t worry, I’ll just wander around the mountainside and be back before sunset. Dad , I want to go with you too. You stay home and protect Mom. Why have n’t Mom and Dad come back yet ? Are you alright ? Is Big Brother Ye Cheng back? I haven’t seen him. There’s no sound from the mountainside . Could he have gone deep into the mountains? What? Mom, are you alright? It’s been so hard for the head of the household to change for the better , please don’t let anything happen to him! Qingwan , it’s Dad! Qingwan , Qingwan, why are you crying? Who bullied you? Why did it take you so long to come back ? I went to the mountains to find some game. Dazhu, Mom , go and put these things away first. Okay , why are there so many ? Did you go deep into the mountains? I went in, and I spent the whole day with the system. Who knew this damn system was absorbing less and less energy? But luckily, wild game can still be sold for money. I didn’t go any deeper into the mountains. There are wild beasts in there. Two years ago, Zhang the hunter was crippled by a wild boar. What will happen to me and the child if something happens to you? Ah, okay, okay , don’t cry, don’t cry. Look what this is . I found a Ganoderma lucidum. I plan to go to town tomorrow and sell this Ganoderma lucidum and the wild game. Aren’t you good at cooking? We can do some braised meat business. It really is Ganoderma lucidum , but I’ve never done business before. I don’t know how to make braised meat either. Oh, but don’t worry, we still have me. It’s just that we don’t have enough spices at home. I still have to go to town tomorrow and sell this Ganoderma lucidum. Okay, here are the five coins I saved. Take them . When we get to the county town, it’ll be good for paying the entrance fee. The original owner, that gambling addict , needs to eat… How much hardship must one endure to save this little bit of money? Don’t worry, Qingwan , I will absolutely not let you down. Waiter , bring some rice and flour. You’re dressed in such rags , can you even afford that? Don’t block the way , this is a granary, rice and flour are precious, don’t get them dirty . Hmph, doing business and still looking down on people! If you keep this up, the granary will go bankrupt sooner or later. Please calm down , this waiter is new and doesn’t know the rules. Look at his tattered clothes, he doesn’t look like someone who can afford rice. He probably ca n’t even afford bean rice. I don’t eat bean rice, I only eat rice and wheat flour. And another pound of brown sugar, the brown sugar is just right for Qingwan and the others to nourish themselves. Later, I’ll exchange for more VIP brown sugar in the mall. Originally 45 coins, I’ll give you a 5-coin discount. I’ll pack it for you myself. Please come to our shop more often! Is this enough? More than enough! You snobbish wretch , hurry up and bring the customer’s brown sugar! Yes, yes, Young Master Ye, Manager, I was wrong , don’t chase me away! Get out of the way, there’s no shortage of snobs everywhere. Looks like I need to hurry up and find a good buyer for my Ganoderma lucidum. I also need to get my braised food business up and running. After all, these days, you can’t stand up straight without money. Shopkeeper , do you buy medicinal herbs? What kind of herbs are you selling ? Ganoderma lucidum ? What kind of Ganoderma lucidum? Young man , this Ganoderma lucidum you’re selling is of very average quality , only five years old, at most twenty taels. It’s clearly fifty years old, and you’re trying to cheat me by saying it ‘s only five years old? You’re trying to rip me off! Shopkeeper, do n’t try to fool me . This is fifty years old wild Ganoderma lucidum, with a firm texture and a full cap . Do you think I don’t know anything about this ? Twenty taels to get rid of me ? Young man, you’re an expert? No, at most eighty taels . Any more and I won’t make any profit. You shopkeeper don’t know anything about Ganoderma lucidum . I’ll go ask around; there’s bound to be someone knowledgeable. Oh, no, then one hundred taels . Go and inquire at all the pharmacies in the county. The price I’m offering is definitely the highest. One hundred and twenty taels, I won’t argue with you anymore. If you can’t pay that, I’m leaving. Hey, Lu Qingwan, you gave all your pheasants and rabbits to Second Brother’s family , why not ours? Are you all biased towards Second Brother ? Do n’t you respect us? Your family has never given us any grain, so why not meat? You stingy little devil! You dare talk back to us? We’ll take the chickens and grains, but I won’t hold your neglect against us. This surplus grain is borrowed from Second Brother , Eldest Brother. “You took everything, we’ll starve! Take the pheasants, leave the grain for us! Who cares about you? Wife , let’s go back and have a good meal! You wicked uncle , I’ll beat you to death ! You dare hit me? I’m going to teach you a lesson today! Coming to my house in broad daylight to steal things ! Do you think I, Ye Cheng, am easy to bully? Ye Cheng, you ‘re a good-for- nothing, talking back to me! A child like that should have been sent away to exchange for grain long ago! Sister- in-law, Daya is still your niece, how can you say that to her? Third brother , listen to your wife! Daring to talk back to your sister-in-law! Do you know how to teach her ? If not, I’ll teach her! You steal things and you think you’re right? Shameless! Have you ever heard the saying ‘the eldest brother is like a father’? Giving some meat and grain to your elder brother and sister-in-law is perfectly natural . If we hadn’t heard from the villagers that you gave meat to your second brother’s family, we wouldn’t have known you caught a rabbit. Since you gave it to your second brother’s family, we can’t be left out. Why should we? Back then, because you were afraid I’d borrow grain , you threatened to sever ties with me …” While Mother is still alive, I’ll take care of you, you fool! I see you’re both really obsessed with money! Ye Cheng, look what I’m doing! You dare hit my man? You have to compensate us with wild rabbits ! Who gave you the guts to act so wildly here? How do you plan to pay for pushing Daya ? Pay ten coins for medical expenses right now! Otherwise, I’ll go to the village head and let him see what you’re up to – stealing food and hitting people ! I’ll tell the village head what happens to Ge the Scoundrel! You know what happens to him, right? Ye Cheng , remember this: from now on, we’re going our separate ways. Don’t blame me for not acknowledging you as my brother. Get lost! Does it hurt ? I’m fine. With Father here, no one can bully us anymore! Daya and I are still here. Dazhu and Erzhu are in the kitchen. I’ll go call them. Daya is so smart ! “Go find the village head to settle things ,” my father taught me . “When you encounter trouble, find a good helper . Father , you must also remember that you can’t rely on your fists alone. In critical moments , you still need wisdom. Sometimes, if someone is kind to us , we should repay them doubly, but if someone bullies us, we will never be soft-hearted. I understand, Father. He dares to teach his children like this. Children raised like this will surely ascend to heaven. Look at what Father brought back from the city! Wow, there’s meat , and big fatty meat at that! We can eat lard now! The rice and noodles are so white, they’re almost blinding! What’s this? This is brown sugar to nourish you. Brown sugar is so precious. It’s not easy for you to go to the mountains. You finally saved up some money, how can you waste it? Buying things for your wives is only right. Look, this is the braising spice I bought. With this, I…” Our braised meat business is making money, but we’re still worried about spending money. Spices are so precious ; what if I don’t do a good job? But we still have each other! A husband and wife working together can overcome anything. If we didn’t have insufficient energy , we could exchange for even more resources and wouldn’t have to spend that money. It’s a pity the system energy is low; we need to find a way to absorb more energy. Okay, I’ll listen to you. Also, I have something to tell you , Dad. What is it? I’ve exchanged the money from selling wild game for rice and flour , and the money from selling Ganoderma lucidum. You’ll keep this money. We’ll discuss big and small matters together . You sold so much Ganoderma lucidum; there must be at least a hundred taels left . Why didn’t you keep it for yourself ? What am I supposed to do with it? From now on, you’ll manage the money . I’ll have to hand over any profits I make. I think we should try tomorrow… Let ‘s make some braised pork with pork. We’ll get the kids to help! Wow, Mom, isn’t it ready ? It smells so good! You greedy little glutton! This is for making money , not for you to eat! How will I know if it’s good or not if I don’t eat it? Come on, try some ! It smells so good! I want more ! It would be strange if it wasn’t good! This is a spice recipe I got from the system! Dazhu , fill two more bowls and take them to your second uncle and grandma. Tell them we’re going to start this braised pork business and let them try it too ! Okay , can I try a piece first? Absolutely! We’ll all try some when you get back. Just spoil them! No more eating , just this one bowl. Your dad… We still need to go to the county town to inquire about information. If you feel it’s not enough to eat , you can have some pancakes later. Oh, there ‘s braised meat to eat! Grandma, I’m here! Hey, Dazhu’s here! What’s in the bowl? Grandma, this is braised meat made by my family. My dad said he wanted to use it to start a business. Let me show you. Doing business isn’t that easy. Ye Cheng, don’t mess around again. This is called braised meat! It smells so good! That ‘s great! My dad will definitely be able to sell it. Sir , you’ve come very early. What would you like to eat? Shopkeeper , I have a new dish that can make your restaurant business even more prosperous. Don’t exaggerate. My chef is famous far and wide. What new dish can’t he make? Hey, try it first. If it’s not good, I’ll leave immediately. The meat is fragrant and mellow. The flavor is strong , but it’s perfect for pairing with alcohol. This is my secret recipe braised meat. Do you think it’ll be exclusively supplied to your restaurant from now on? As for dishes , my head chef is more familiar with them. If you don’t mind , could you let my chef try some ? Please, I ‘ll go get it for the chef. Spices are inherently varied, and the proportions are unique to this system. If this restaurant can replicate it, I’ll change my surname to him . Who brought that meat just now? Tell him! Brother, this meat is yours! The taste is amazing! I’ve never seen anyone use spices so skillfully. We click. If you don’t mind, let’s be friends. Making friends is good , but this braised meat is my secret recipe, and I can’t share it! Of course! Anyone who dares to covet your livelihood will be my enemy ! What do you say, boss ? Since Brother Ye is your friend , I naturally can’t treat him unfairly. Brother Ye , I don’t care how much braised meat you have, I’ll take it all. My family is small, and I can only make 100 jin a day. I’ll give you 150 wen per jin. How about that? Consider this one liang as a deposit, and I’ll pay the rest after the goods arrive . It’s a deal! Whether this meat can be made shouldn’t be a problem. Wait for the butcher… The pork is here, so the braised pork business can officially begin. These coarse cloths will be used to make clothes and food for the family ; cleanliness is also very important. Warning! Warning! A large number of locusts have been found by the roadside. Locust plagues can easily affect the lives of hosts. Please take immediate precautions. It’s those locusts again! Won’t the crops in the fields be ruined ? Grain prices have doubled , and life will be even harder from now on . Someone from another village just said they found locusts; it’s estimated that a plague won’t be long. But it’s precisely at times like these that we need to unite and work together to find ways to deal with these locusts. We can’t just stand by and watch these crops be eaten. Last year there was a severe drought; if there are locusts this year, the villagers are hoping for a good harvest. If they’re eaten again , life will be unbearable. Locusts are difficult to deal with ; even burning them won’t help in the face of a locust plague . Dealing with locusts wasn’t a problem in my previous life , but in this era there’s no effective medicine to eradicate them. Everyone in the village is talking about locusts. If the crops are gone, don’t worry, we just set up the braised pork business . Even if the crops are affected a little , we can still hold on. The braised pork business is settled! That ‘s great! Then let’s… I might not have time to save some money, but speaking of locust plagues, I might have a solution. I’ll ask the system later; maybe it has a good idea . Thanks to Uncle Feng for lending me the cart. After you finish delivering the goods , remember to buy more grains. Grains keep well when locusts come. You said you have a way to kill locusts, is that true? Once I figure it out, I’ll discuss it with the village head. I ‘ll need your help then. Just keep that in mind . Goodbye , Uncle Feng, hurry up and don’t delay the sales. Okay! Does the system shop have any special locust-killing medicine? The appearance of special medicine will cause spacetime disorder. The system randomly suggested the host purchase the book ” One Hundred Ways to Eliminate Locusts” from the store , but all my energy has been used to exchange for resources . Where would I get energy to exchange for books? This system’s store supports credit service ; you only need to double your amount to get a refund. You truly live up to your reputation as a “leaving a feather behind every goose” system, huh? You’ve caught a goose and are going to pluck it bald , haven’t you ? Buy, buy, buy, buy, buy! Purchase successful! Stored in space! With this, locust eradication is on the horizon! What ? What did you say? I’m hard of hearing; I didn’t hear you clearly. What play? I, Old Feng, don’t have the money to go! It’s alright, Fourth Uncle. Okay, host, you currently owe a large amount of energy. Please settle the debt within five days , otherwise you will be in real life… Converting to equivalent debt , you dog system , you deliberately tricked me, didn’t you? Insults are forbidden. This system was forced to introduce the punishment system because the host was too passive and lazy . Please actively absorb energy. 8,888 taels of silver. Even if I sell braised meat every day to earn silver, it would still take five years without eating or drinking . But if the locust eradication is successful, the court will definitely give a reward. Maybe there is energy in it. Brother Ye, today’s delivery is fast . It’s just in time for lunch. Why don’t you stay and have a bite before you go ? No, I have an urgent matter at home . I have to hurry back to the village. Okay, don’t forget tomorrow’s delivery. Don’t worry , it won’t be wrong. Goodbye. I have to hurry to my space to look through that book. Digging ditches to lure and kill is too much trouble. This is poisoning . Where am I going to find the poison? Do I have a method suitable for this era? I have poisonous grass fumigation method. These two kinds of grass should be able to be found in this era. But I can’t tell the village head directly. I have to remember this. I’ve been busy all night and finally remembered it. I have to go to the village head later. Uncle Village Head, did you not sleep well last night? Otherwise, let Dazhu deliver today’s delivery . Hey, the delivery is not urgent. It’s okay. I plan to go to the village head. “Hey, locust eradication ! Our village is saved! Uncle Ye Cheng, you’ve come to ask about the locust plague too? I was just at my wit’s end! Uncle, I’ve found a way to eradicate locusts! If it can really save our crops, I’ll bow to you and do anything! Oh no, no no, I saw a method for eradicating locusts in an ancient book: burning two kinds of grass that are poisonous to locusts can kill locusts and their eggs. Which two kinds of grass? The names of grasses back then were different from later times. To avoid getting it wrong, I still have to draw it out. Do you have rough paper and charcoal pencils here? I’ll draw it for you. These are Artemisia argyi and Artemisia annua. I’ll get someone to cut them right away. But Uncle, these two kinds of grass have a strong smell. They can kill locusts , but I’m not sure if they have any effect on people. So when burning them, you must make sure someone is upwind .” “Dad, Uncle Feng, the truck’s ready. If you don’t deliver the braised meat soon, it’ll be too late! ” “I was so happy I forgot you had business to do . Okay, hurry up and deliver the goods. Leave the grass cutting to me. Okay ! Upwind! Okay! Uncle Lizheng, we ‘ve already seen locusts in our fields. If we don’t do something, it’s really over . Yes, God isn’t giving us a way out. First it was drought, now it’s locust plague. How are we going to survive? Folks , don’t despair ! Look, Ye Cheng found grass to kill the locusts! There’s hope! Our crops are saved! Now go cut the grass, dry it, and we’ll smoke those locusts to death. This year’s harvest is saved ! Hurry up! Smoke it! I tried burning grass last year; it burned a bunch of locusts instead of driving them away. I think Ye Cheng is just trying to show off. Yes, what business does Ye Cheng’s family do ? Braised meat business! He’s clearly tricking us into cutting grass so he can make braised meat for us !” ” He’s making money, why should we all contribute? Boss Ye, you scoundrel Ge, stop talking nonsense! This grass is poisonous to locusts , it’s different from the one you used last year . I don’t care, whoever wants to go can go, I won’t go, whoever wants to go can go, we shouldn’t trust Ye Cheng . Who knows if Ye Cheng has ulterior motives? Hey, why you? Didn’t the villagers go to cut grass? You scoundrel Ge said you’re lying everywhere , saying this grass is useless. But I believe you. I cut all this grass with the children , see if it’s enough, it ‘s definitely enough . The locusts will definitely be wiped out. I didn’t expect Qingwan to trust me so much. In my previous life, I was all alone and never felt such warmth . What are you doing, Mom and Dad? Shame on you, Mom and Dad, let go! You silly dad , I cut a lot of grass too. You guys are amazing . I’ll buy you candy later . These little brats are really a waste of time. We need to save money quickly and build a big house like this…” Qingwan and I can still have some private space . I can tell there are more and more locusts in the field. Before long , they’ll eat all the crops. This year’s harvest will definitely be bad. Ye Cheng is trying to defy the heavens . Look at him, pretending to wait for the locusts to come back and eat his crops. I told you it wouldn’t work, it’s a waste of effort and ruins the grass. I have three more days to deal with the locust plague and replenish the system’s energy . Mission accomplished ! Look , the locusts are really dead. Ye Cheng’s method really works. To me, it’s just a lucky guess. I think the locusts will come back after the smoke clears. Mom, being lucky is a skill. If you don’t want it, get lost. If the locust plague destroys the crops, you’ll starve to death and no one will care. Mom , why are you always biased towards him? He catches wild game, makes braised meat, and doesn’t share his profits with me. Now he can even kill locusts ? “What good things always happen to him, and you still dare to talk about me? Ye Cheng is doing things for the village, and you not only don’t help, but you also make sarcastic remarks. I’ll teach you a lesson today! Mother , stand still! Ye Cheng has done a great job in eliminating locusts ; he’s our village’s benefactor. From now on, if anyone dares to cause trouble for Ye Cheng, I’ll be the first to object! This method really works! I have to hurry to the county office and talk to the magistrate. Maybe I can even get some credit! First , there was a natural disaster, and now there’s a locust plague. Forget about promotions; even keeping my official hat is a problem! Your Honor, the locust plague is a natural disaster. We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate . The people rely on the crops in the fields to survive. Prepare the carriage; I need to go to the surrounding villages to take a look. I can’t just sit here and wait to die! Your Honor, the people of Qingshan Village are requesting an audience. They say someone in their village has found a good way to eliminate locusts and has come specifically to report this. If that’s true , quickly bring him in to pay his respects to the magistrate! Your Honor , I was just about to go…” “You’re here first, investigating the locust plague in Qingshan Village! Does your method for eliminating locusts even work? If you dare lie, I won’t forgive you! I wouldn’t dare lie to you, sir! I didn’t expect you to still care about our village. Actually, it was just that kid Ye Cheng who did a little work in eliminating the locusts. It’s nothing, sir! You’re so wise and powerful, stop flattering me! You just said Qingshan Village is already eliminating locusts! Yes, sir! Ye Cheng used straw smoke, and most of the locusts in the fields are dead ! Why didn’t you say so sooner? Quickly, take me to see ! This way, sir ! The locusts here are really all dead! Where’s Ye Cheng? He’s over there , watching the villagers smoke the locusts! Listen, everyone , when you light the smoke, stand upwind! Don’t get choked by the smoke! Okay, everyone, let’s work hard ! Oh, never mind that ! The magistrate is here ! Hurry up! The magistrate is here so quickly! The system debt is hopeful now! You are Ye Cheng! This method of eliminating locusts with smoke really came from me , Ye Cheng!” ” Greetings , Your Honor! Besides this method of fumigating to kill locusts , I also have a method of digging ditches to lure and kill them. This can better control the locusts and manage the disaster. I never expected you to have this skill ! Quickly tell me in detail. If you can truly control the locust plague, I will reward you handsomely. Thank you, Your Honor! Why is Ye Cheng always in the limelight? Before, he was just as disliked as me, but now he can actually speak with the county magistrate. I absolutely cannot let him have it so easily! Your Honor, this is a method for killing locusts that I have compiled. Besides fumigation and digging ditches , I also have methods for preventing locust eggs. This can be used as a reference for other villages. You are very thoughtful. This booklet is very important. I will certainly reward you handsomely!” ” I ‘ll reward you handsomely . Go and summon all the village heads from the surrounding villages to the yamen to learn how to exterminate locusts. Thank you, sir. What did you tell the magistrate? He said he wants to reward us. Aren’t you happy? Please accept the reward. But this is important. I need to quickly make new clothes for Dazhu, Erzhu , and Daya. They can’t still be dressed in rags. Make yourself some too . We’ll have plenty of money in the future, so don’t suffer. I was planning to build a big brick house, but bricks are too expensive. I’ll build two more rooms , just some partitions. Partitions… Is Qingwan finally willing to be intimate with me? Ye Cheng, Qingwan , your family asked me to pass on a message to you.” I said I’d let you go back in a couple of days . Okay, you guys go ahead and do your work , I’ll go back and cook. Oh, you’re letting me down at this crucial moment! We absolutely have to build a big brick house ! Ye Cheng never liked me going back to my parents’ house before , so maybe we should just forget about it. If there’s nothing going on at home, I won’t go back. Qingwan, let’s go to your father-in-law’s house in a couple of days , and bring some braised meat and grain to make him happy. Really, you never liked going before. I was so immature and made you suffer. Now that life is better , of course we should visit the elders. Okay, I’ll pack up and go with you. Oh, Ye Cheng! New clothes, all new clothes, you really think you’re a hero? The county magistrate’s reward isn’t so easy to come by. Don’t end up with nothing. What nonsense are you talking about? Don’t argue with a fool, I’m afraid of catching his stupidity. Who are you calling a fool? Ye Cheng, explain yourself clearly. Ye Cheng, the county magistrate is here, come and greet him. No need for formalities. You ‘ve done a good job in eliminating locusts . The prefect specifically sent me to deliver a reward of one hundred taels of silver and a plaque. Later, there will be a reward from the imperial court. My goodness , one hundred taels ! I ‘ve never seen so much money in my life . Ye Cheng, you’re really something. Now you’re a righteous man’s family . Thank you, imperial court ! Thank you so much, sir! What’s with the arrogance? I’ll teach you a lesson later. Righteous man! Ding! Detected the imperial court. The plaque bestowed contains positive energy that can be absorbed to offset debts. Great! Absorb it quickly! Energy successfully absorbed! Debts cleared! Qingwan, aren’t we going to your father-in-law’s house later? Let’s go! Really, I’m all ready! Let’s go ! Ding! Absorbable energy detected ahead! There’s a market 500 meters ahead, let’s go check it out and buy some wine and snacks for your father-in-law , and a piece of cloth for your mother-in-law. You don’t need to spend so much; it’s all what we should do. They are your parents , and they are my parents too. When the time comes, we’ll get a piece of cloth … Ye Cheng, are you bullying my sister again? I’ll beat you to death today! Hey, my Yu Qingyuan, it’s not that you misunderstood, you dare to make my sister suffer! I won’t forgive you! Hey, hey, hey , stop arguing! You knocked my jade stone off! Pay me back right now! This is top-grade jade, you have to pay me twenty taels! Twenty taels! I didn’t do it on purpose! My brother didn’t do it on purpose either! Can you lower the price? No way! This is top-grade jade! I didn’t even bump into it! The stall owner is deliberately trying to scam us! In my past life, there were unscrupulous merchants who deliberately placed jade on the edge of the stall , waiting for passersby to bump into it and rip us off. Today, they’ve got their eyes on us! Tell me , how much is this jade worth? * Ding* Low-grade spirit jade detected. Can absorb energy ? Absorb spirit jade ? Could this be it? This isn’t ordinary jade! This is a family heirloom left to my grandfather’s grandfather ! If you really want to pay, you’ll have to pay a hundred taels! You’re lying! You just said twenty taels! He’s deliberately trying to scam us! My uncle is a county magistrate’s constable. If he doesn’t pay, he’ll send you to jail! It’ll be exactly a hundred taels ! This number is too coincidental! It turns out it was Ge the scoundrel who did this! He knew I just received a hundred taels of reward money and deliberately found someone to scam me! I didn’t expect Lu Qing… “You’ve bumped into me from afar, sister! This is clearly an attempt to extort money! I didn’t even touch his stall! To be honest, the magistrate I’ve been thinking about is a method for eradicating locusts. He calls me ‘brother, ‘ so you could call your uncle over. When the magistrate arrives, we can discuss things properly. Uh, no, why are you acting so unpredictably? Either give me five hundred coins , or when the magistrate arrives, this extortion attempt will land you in jail! Fine, five hundred coins it is then. Five hundred coins it is, brother -in-law . I’m sorry, I didn’t ask clearly before I attacked, and I almost made you pay a lot of money. Your brother-in-law isn’t the same as before. Now he not only knows how to make braised meat , but he also received a generous reward from Master Zhou for eradicating locusts. He’s really impressive! Brother -in-law , you even got a reward from the magistrate. It’s a small matter . You can’t be so reckless in the future. Let ‘s go back and see your parents-in-law. They ‘ll be here soon. Hang in there a little longer ! Oh, Ye Cheng, you really love your wife. You’ve really made this old woman suffer !” Envious that I can walk on my own? Put me down and carry your wife, what’s wrong with that? You shameless scoundrel, you can’t let this go after you tricked me today! Sister-in-law Zhou, you’re so quick to talk , I have an idea ! Hey , hey, stop knocking! Stop knocking! Folks , everyone come and see! Folks , everyone come and see! That damned scoundrel Ge Wulai actually stole everyone’s personal clothing! He’s so shameless! It wasn’t me who stole it, folks ! I was framed! You still dare to deny it ? It was Ye Cheng ! Ye Cheng ! Is that you? It was Ye Cheng! It must have been Ye Cheng who framed me! Bah! Ye Cheng framed you? Ge Wulai! You’ve done plenty of petty theft before! We only have two sets of personal clothing in our house, and you stole a whole set! You shameless scoundrel! I’ll scratch your face today! You don’t know how powerful you are! You even stole my clothes! Now I’m telling you to get out of the village! It really wasn’t me who stole it! I was framed! Heavens! Now you know… Now you know what it feels like to be tricked, huh? Serves you right! Just because a tiger doesn’t roar doesn’t mean it’s a pushover! Dare to mess with me and you’ll pay the price! Ge Wulai is notorious for his petty theft; even if he says someone framed him, who would believe him? Why hasn’t this spirit jade been fully absorbed yet? Hey system, are you broken? *Ding!* Spirit jade energy absorption complete. System upgrade successful. Space upgraded to intermediate level. Space upgraded! Black soil and spirit spring! I can plant now! With this spirit field, I finally don’t have to worry about food! *Detected that the host has purchased seeds. Activate one-click planting and one-click watering functions? * Activate planting and watering! This is too fast! The spirit field and spirit spring water can shorten the crop growth cycle. After maturity, they can be sold to the mall for real-world silver. Silver can be used to upgrade the system mall. One million taels of silver can be used to upgrade to the intermediate mall. One million taels of silver— why don’t you just rob someone? Anyway , building a house can be put on the agenda now, Mom. Mother , I’ve decided we’re still building a house. We’ll build that big brick house with tiled roof. You’re still talking nonsense, sleeping until the sun is high in the sky ! Ouch, ouch, ouch! What big brick house? You’re asking for trouble! Stop it, Mother ! Dazhu is getting old; he’ll have to get married eventually. We can live together then. I think that makes sense . Besides, everyone in the village knows we have money. If we do n’t spend it , people will covet it. I say, it’s better to spend it! Okay, I’ll find some villagers to help with the house. I promise I won’t mistreat them. We’ll find twenty people , give each twenty coins, plus a meat meal! You spendthrift! This is going to waste so much money! Oh, Mother , building a house is a big deal . How can people be willing to build a house for you sincerely if you don’t give them enough money ? And since we’re going to build one , we should build the most beautiful brick and tile house . Okay , I’ll go find some people first. Don’t make any empty promises. After the house is built, we’ll finally have time to spend together. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. We’ll talk about Qingwan after the house is built. Are you really willing? Parents , look what I brought back! This little rascal really knows how to pick his time. Ye Cheng , I heard your family is building a house and they’re providing meals. Is that true? Of course it’s true! The bricks I ordered will arrive today. Anyone willing to help, I’ll give each of you twenty coins plus a meat meal. If you want to come, you can sign up now . Ye Cheng, you’re really rich! I just saw his house… They ‘ve raised chickens and ducks, and even a little dog! Most families can’t even afford enough wild vegetables and porridge , let alone a dog! Ye Chengjia is really generous; not only does he pay wages, he provides meals too! I’m signing up ! Those of you who want to sign up, I’ll write that down. Come find me every day after work to settle your wages. You said you’d settle wages daily, not wait until the end ? Yes , I don’t like owing people wages; it’s all about getting paid on the same day you work . Great ! With the money , I can exchange it for some food so my family can have a good meal. I’m signing up too ! We’re all signing up! Okay, okay, I’m signing up! Brother-in -law Qingyuan, what brings you here ? Brother -in-law , I’m here to help too! Everyone, go back now. Okay, go, go ! Qingyuan, what brings you here? Did something happen at home? No, it’s nothing . I had a big fight with Dad. He knows about what happened at the market that day and scolded me for being immature, saying I only cause trouble . Actually, I didn’t mean to! He also said I’m mediocre and won’t be able to support a family in the future. I got angry and ran away. Dad’s just short-tempered, don’t take it to heart. I just wanted to prove myself . I heard that brother-in-law wants to build a house and is thinking of… ” If you don’t come and help first, I won’t ask for wages. You’re right. Without a skill to rely on , how will you support your family with your impulsive nature ? Even you, brother -in-law, are talking about me. Don’t be sad, brother-in-law didn’t mean it that way. Husband, do n’t upset him. I’ll have someone pass a message to Mom and Dad , saying that you’ll be with me these few days. During the day, you ‘ll help me build the house, and at night, your sister will teach you how to make braised meat. Brother – in-law, thank you so much . I ‘ll definitely treat you and the children well in the future . We’re all family, no need to thank me. But brother-in-law, if I learn it, will it affect your business ? You know, that Yuelai Restaurant, we don’t even have enough to deliver to the county town. Aren’t there other restaurants? You can deliver to other places. If you learn this skill , you ‘ll have a long-term business . Brother-in-law , I’ll definitely work hard. So, you ‘ll help me build the house today, and tonight, your sister will teach you how to make braised meat. Ding Ling wheat 120 jin, Ling rice 80 jin, ripe. Harvest and sell? Wow, 200 taels ! That’s enough for me to build the house! Sell! Sell! Sell successfully! Congratulations, host, you have obtained 200 taels of silver. This is the real gold !” ” If I keep doing this, I’ll become the richest man in the future!” (Warning: Increased malicious value detected in the surrounding area. Host , please be on guard.) “What’s going on? I didn’t expect Ye Cheng to actually build a new house and even treat the whole village to a meat feast! Humph, he’s completely forgotten his own people! This heartless bastard! We’ve just watched Ye Cheng build a new house! That’s a full hundred taels of silver ! If we had that much silver, we wouldn’t have to work for the rest of our lives ! I do have a plan to make Ye Cheng cough up the money, but let’s see if you’re willing to part with it!” (System says: Detected malicious value in the surrounding area. Is there anyone here ? Nobody here! My son! I’ve raised you with so much hardship , and you haven’t even shown me any filial piety yet! How could you get a terminal illness? What will I do if you die ? My precious son! Your life is so miserable! What’s wrong with you two? Why are you crying at Ye Cheng’s house? My son has a terminal illness! The doctor in the county says it will cost seventy taels of silver to cure him! Where are we going to get that much money ? This is going to kill us! Ye Cheng is my son’s third uncle, after all ! Ye Cheng shouldn’t…” So you’re just going to leave him to die? So you want to borrow money from me to treat Da Bao’s illness ? Ye Cheng, you’re his third uncle , you wouldn’t just stand by and watch him die, would you? Third Uncle, Da Bao is your own nephew! You even have money to build a house! You still owe seventy taels ? No, what terminal illness does Da Bao have? Just a few days ago, Da Bao was climbing trees and raiding bird nests. How could he have a terminal illness ? He’s having chest pains, and the doctor said it’ll be too late if we don’t save him soon . Coincidentally, I just saw Da Bao fishing by the river yesterday ; he’s even stronger than me ! Brothers, do you want money or jail time? Ye Cheng is your own nephew; if you don’t save him , it’ll be a disgrace. But you … I want to see who’s really shameless enough to use my grandson’s life to deceive people! I even saw Da Bao going up the mountain this morning . Do you think we’re easy to fool? Mother … why are you here? If I didn’t come, how would I know about you…? ” You two are talking like this behind my back, Da Bao. I’ll beat you to death today , you two beasts! Oh, it’s not my fault. This was all Ye Laoda’s idea. He even tricked Da Bao into coming up the mountain. Mother, I was wrong, Mother, don’t listen to her. It was all your and Da Bao’s idea. Now you’ve tricked me. See if I don’t divorce you today! How can you turn your back on me so easily? This was originally your idea, and you still want to divorce me? You heartless bastard ! That’s enough! I have no interest in knowing whose idea it was. As for money, we do have it , but I wouldn’t give it to a dog. Ye Cheng , you just wait! I will definitely avenge this humiliation ! Hey , let’s go! Take the money, Aunt Zhou!” Ye Cheng, you’re always treating everyone to meat, it’s really expensive! This is some wild amaranth I just dug up, mixing it into the dishes should save some money. Auntie, you’re so thoughtful, thank you! You detected five catties of wild amaranth, meeting the purchase standard , can be exchanged for fifty coins. Sell? The mall has been upgraded! You can exchange for money without consuming energy! That’s awesome! Damn system, get out here! *Ding* Sold successful! Fifty coins have arrived! The system’s resources are already cheaper than outside, this upgrade is worth it! Upgrading the mall can unlock more items . When it reaches the highest level, it can provide a way to return to the original world. Oh, what conditions are needed ? One hundred million taels of silver and extra energy. The national treasury doesn’t even know if it has ten million taels . One hundred million taels? Damn system, are you kidding me? Newly planted seeds: Please, host, work hard ! It seems that upgrading this system really requires careful planning . Hehe, Ye Cheng, why are you buying meat? How much will that cost? The villagers work so hard, they deserve to eat well. This meat smells so good, it’s practically pungent in my nose! Ye Cheng, you’re so generous! Just for this meat , I’ll come every day from now on, and I’ll make sure the walls are stronger than stone! This meat was even redeemed from the system, and it tastes even better than regular pork. But since the system can buy resources, why not take advantage of it a bit more? Hey, you’re going to the mountains again ? There are wild animals in the mountains, I don’t trust you to go alone. Recently, we’ve been building a house and we’re short on firewood for cooking. I’ll go chop some. Sister Qingyuan , if you really want to go, that’s fine too. You can have Qingyuan accompany you. That way, you two can go… It ‘s good to have someone to look after you. Brother-in-law , I’ll go with you. Sister, let’s go ! Ding! Wild red mushroom detected . Can you locate it ? The location panel is showing something. There’s definitely a lot of money involved. Brother-in-law, you can’t eat this. It’s poisonous and will kill you . Ding! Two catties and six ounces of wild red mushrooms, worth two ounces and six qian. Silly boy, this isn’t for eating . Someone in the county town is buying it . One hundred coins a day. I’ll dig it up. This is digging for money! Ye Cheng, why are you digging up so many poisonous mushrooms? Are you crazy? Hey, this isn’t for eating. It’s for selling. How much can this sell for? What’s it for? What ‘s it for? I don’t know , but they said one catty can sell for one hundred coins. What? One hundred coins? I remember there are quite a few of these mushrooms on the mountain . Picking ten catties is enough for us. The income from farming for a year is so valuable! If only we knew who would buy them! One person picking mushrooms can’t compare to the whole village coming together. As long as I have resources, I can exchange them for money. It’s not impossible to save enough money to upgrade the system. I don’t have time now . Let’s discuss it together . Thirteen catties of red mushrooms can be exchanged for 130 taels of silver. Sell? Only 130 taels. I’m still a long way from the 1 million taels needed to upgrade the system shop to the intermediate level. Sell ! Sold successfully! 130 taels have been credited to my account. The spirit fruits are all ripe . Eating them can increase energy. Pick them? Pick them! Eating them really restores energy. I feel so light! This effect is too powerful! So sweet! And so warm! It also has the effect of strengthening the body. A total of 1,000 catties of spirit peaches and 500 catties of spirit dates were harvested . Selling them to the mall can earn 3,000 taels of silver. Should I sell them? No, I won’t sell them for now . I’m going to make a fortune! Dazhu, Dad , take this fruit to Manager Li and see if he’ll accept it . If the price is right, we’ll supply this fruit. We’re not making braised meat anymore ! Dad , why are you giving up your good braised meat business? The braised meat business is good, but this fruit can make us a lot of money. I know, Dad, when I get back, I’ll tell you the price Manager Li quoted . Good boy , be careful! Qingwan, our new house will be finished in two days. Look at this new furniture I made. When it’s finished, see if you need anything else for the house. I’ll have a carpenter make all the new furniture for you. Dad, Dazhu used to come back long ago when he delivered braised meat to the restaurant. Why are you so late today? Is something wrong? I’ll go check on you. Dad , Manager Li from Yuelai Restaurant is here! Oh, Manager Li, why did you come in person? Ye Cheng, we meet again. I tasted your fruit and felt comfortable and energetic after eating it. I came today to talk to you about cooperation. So, Manager Li , how would you like to cooperate? May I ask, Ye Cheng? Brother, how much of this fruit do you have ? Actually, there aren’t that many, so I can’t reveal the exact amount . I won’t beat around the bush ; I’ll just give you a price. For peaches, I need ten catties a day, three taels of silver per catty. For dates, twenty catties a day , five taels of silver per catty . If you think that’s acceptable, I’ll order for a month. I thought I could sell them all, but even Yuelai Restaurant can only handle this much. Oh well , let’s see how things go first. Okay, then it has to be cash on delivery. No problem , I’ll head back now. Dazhu, go deliver it quickly. Okay , Father , where did you get so much fruit and why are you selling it at such a high price? Oh no, I forgot about the space! We can’t let anyone know. Tell me the truth! Where did these fruits come from? I knew I couldn’t hide it from you. I met a lost merchant from out of town on the mountain. He was anxious to get home and asked me to sell these fruits for him. But his identity is very special, so I can’t reveal it. Could he be a foreign merchant? The government doesn’t allow commoners to cooperate with foreign merchants. What if we get caught? Oh,
he’s already gone. If you don’t tell, no one will know. Besides, I only paid a deposit; we ‘ll pay the balance after the goods arrive. Don’t worry, Father. “Father, Mother, what are you doing in the house during the day? Didn’t I tell you to knock before entering your room ? Father , but we only have this one room, do we really need to knock? Oh, right, I just heard my older brother say there’s fruit to eat, I want some too. You little glutton, it smells so good! It must be delicious. I’ll go find my little sister to share.” “This child is so clumsy , really impressive! Ye Cheng , your house is truly magnificent! This brick and tile house is one of the best in the whole county, isn’t it? Thank you all for your help. Everyone, come inside quickly , eat more ! I’ve heard the food at Ye Cheng’s house is delicious! Today, we must eat more! Hurry, Ye Cheng, your nephew Ye Dabao is making a fuss about dividing the family property!” The village head sent you to check on Wan Fen’s family. You little brat, stop right there! Don’t come back now, and don’t expect me to give you a single grain of rice . I don’t care if you starve to death ; who cares? And don’t come looking for me if you die in the future . You ‘ve spoiled him rotten ! Oh, Third Uncle , I truly didn’t know my parents lied to you. Now that I’ve separated from them, I’ll live on my own. This kid isn’t as bad as his parents. Let’s see how he is first . Why did Da Bao suddenly want to separate from the family? Probably because he discovered his parents’ curse and saw their true colors. You know, that Ye Lao Da really doesn’t leave Da Bao a single grain of rice . Aren’t they afraid of him starving to death? No , Da Bao is still your nephew, so let’s help him. You ‘re just too kind. Later, I plan to buy medicinal herbs and grains. As long as we’re diligent enough , we won’t starve. As for collecting wild vegetables , are those what those merchants want? Is it dangerous ? No, it’s not. Also, I plan to hand over the braised meat business to Qingyuan. That way , we can focus on selling that fruit to Manager Li. I calculated that we can earn about 130 taels a day , so Qingyuan can earn enough to support his family . You’re too good to us, sir . This is what I should do. If you really feel bad , find a place… Don’t talk nonsense. If they ask about the source of that fruit… What should I do? I almost forgot about this. Isn’t your mother from another county? Let’s talk about this fruit. Is it from your hometown orchard ? I’ll go back and ask my mother. Oh, now that we ‘ve finished the serious business, let’s talk about something less serious. The guests just left, and I still have to pack up. Oh, what about Dazhu and the others? I’ve been looking forward to this day for so long ! Everyone, please be patient. What’s all the fuss about so early in the morning? Oh, I’ve talked to a few familiar people about digging for wild vegetables, and they came to ask you. Okay , I’ll talk to them. Starting today, I’m going to collect a lot of wild vegetables and medicinal herbs. I’ll give everyone money and grain. Ye Cheng, you also collect red mushrooms. One hundred coins per pound , or ten pounds of grain. As for the other medicinal herbs and wild vegetables, I think I need to see them before I can give a price. One hundred coins per pound? That price is too high! Wouldn’t we be rich? Ye Cheng , I can deliver it to you today. I’ll go dig now and deliver it to you this afternoon. Everyone, please be patient. I’ll give you a price as long as you deliver it. Okay, let’s go, let’s go. Oh, wait, wait! Uncle is leaving. We just moved to a new house, why are we moving again? Sister… Brother- in-law , once your house is finished, you won’t need my help anymore . You’ve even handed over the braised meat business to me, so I should go home now. Do a good job, and call me anytime if you need anything. Sister , if you ‘ve really changed, you two should live well together. Come home and visit when you have time. Okay , I’ll go back when I have time. Don’t be angry with Mom and Dad. Luckily this time, your brother-in-law is alright . Next time you run away, no one will care. Okay, sister. Brother -in-law, let’s go, slow down. Why is he here? Yuan , hey, Da Bao , get up! Your third uncle heard you’re collecting wild vegetables and medicinal herbs. Please give me a chance. I know my parents aren’t good people and want to cheat you out of money , but I’m different from them. Please give me a chance. Get up , sir! I hope you keep your word and be an upright person. Don’t be lazy or cheat! Thank you, third uncle! Get up! # Do a good job! I can not only exchange grain for yours here , but also silver. It will definitely be enough to support yourself. Goodbye , third uncle! Ye Cheng actually stole my son ! When I find a chance , I’ll definitely kill Ye Cheng! Sir , please try this, it’s our new tea . You’ve come all the way from the capital, and all you give me is this? Our humble village can’t compare to the capital! Please sit here for a moment, I’ll send someone to find Ye Cheng right away . How long will you have to wait for this round trip ? Just take me to him! Hey boss,
save me another peach , five taels each, it’s worth it! I only gave Manager Li five taels a pound, that old fox is selling it ten times the price! Brother Ye , you’ve finally arrived! Let’s have some tea in the private room upstairs! Oh, come on , come on ! Brother Ye, you’ve seen your fruit, it ‘s very popular . How about I add another tael of silver per pound ? No need, I came here just to tell you that the quantity of this fruit is limited, it wo n’t be available after this month . “No, my restaurant depends entirely on it! The fruit is only so little , I don’t know what to do. Brother Ye , how about this, you show me where you planted your fruit trees ? Maybe I can make them bear more fruit! ” I appreciate Manager Li’s kindness , but I won’t let just anyone look at these fruit trees. Yes, yes , yes, I was being presumptuous. But there are still a few days left until our one-month contract. You absolutely must deliver the goods, otherwise, I’ll definitely be in big trouble. Do n’t worry, I promised you I wouldn’t go back on my word. Bye, Ye Chengjing! Is the head of the household entering the city? Hey , don’t be rude! This is a messenger from the capital. This humble woman greets Your Excellency. Ye Chengjing … People from the city are coming! They say they’re going to arrest you! Run! The villagers all think highly of you. I’ll distract them for you . Go quickly! Thanks, brother. I haven’t done anything wrong . I’ll go in and check first. You’ve offended a powerful person and are getting your comeuppance. Humph , what if we get implicated? It’s alright , we’ll sever ties with him. Even if he’s punished , it won’t be our fault. Your Honor, we’re innocent! We have no relation to Ye Cheng. He is him, we are him, we are us. We beg Your Honor to let us sever ties with him ! You dared to offend a powerful person ! Drag him out and beat him to death with ten strokes of the cane ! Your Honor , we’re innocent! Actually, we’ve wanted to sever ties with his family for a long time , but we haven’t had time to report to the yamen. We beg Your Honor to let us sever ties with them now! “You want to sever ties with Ye Cheng? This shows that bad people come from poor and remote places! Since that’s the case, I’ve decided to grant their wish. Since the lord has already given the order, go and retrieve the documents . Ye Cheng # I never thought you’d have this day! Quickly submit to the law! You are Ye Cheng, a commoner ! Ye Cheng, by imperial decree, Ye Cheng of Rinanle County, has used secret methods to quell the locust plague and save countless people. He is hereby granted the title of Ninth-Rank Official, awarded one hundred taels of gold and ten bolts of silk. This is the imperial decree. Ye Cheng thanks the emperor for his great favor. Congratulations on your promotion , Lord Ye ! Have a bowl of coarse tea.” Lord Ye ‘s actions are thorough, showing he has a bright future. Luckily , I had the money from selling fruit on me. But this man changed his tune so quickly after taking the money. Congratulations, Brother Ye! You’ve accomplished a great feat this time . Although you’re only a ninth- rank official , you’re now a person of rank! In the future , you must do more to benefit the people and bring glory to our Nanle County. Thank you, Magistrate. I will certainly live up to your expectations ! Ye Cheng has become an official. How could he not be punished? Lord Ye, be careful of such opportunistic people in the future . The thirty strokes you didn’t finish before you offended me , sir. Hurry up and take them away so as not to annoy you . Spare me, sir ! Spare me, sir ! It serves him right ! Ye Cheng has actually become an official. He even dared to lay a hand on Boss Ye . He even tried to swindle his reward money. Manager Li even sent me to keep an eye on him recently . He ‘s going to deal with me next ! No, Ye Cheng has humiliated me time and time again. I can’t swallow this insult. Rather than let him come to me first , I’d rather kill him first. Ye Cheng, Ye Cheng, I didn’t expect you to become an official! This is such a glorious thing, we must go and pay respects to our ancestors. Uncle is right , then I’ll go prepare some things first. But Qingwan and the others, you go quickly, I ‘ll take care of things at home. You must properly pay respects to our ancestors. Oh, thanks to the ancestors’ blessing, you have such good fortune today. Qingwan , take these and go. Aunt , Qingwan, quickly put away these rewards to avoid attracting jealousy. These silks are so beautiful, I’ll make you two sets of clothes later. This broken door won’t last long. Wait until I go in and kill you all. Who? Mother, someone’s knocking on the door. I’m scared. Don’t be scared . Oh , I’m rich! Ge Wulai, you bastard , are you crazy? You want to kill people? Don’t you have any justice? Justice? I am justice! Wu Jinhua, you old woman , do you believe I’ll kill you first? I’ll beat you to death first, you son of a bitch! Hit me! Hit me ! Hit me here! Hit me here! Hit me ! “Dare to touch Ye Cheng’s family? I think you’re tired of living! Ge Wulai, are you crazy ? You still want to kill people? Detecting the host’s surrounding malice level is rising. Please be careful. There ‘s nothing around. Oh no, it’s Qingwan! I killed someone! I didn’t kill a human! I ‘ll kill you bunch of sons of bitches! And you, Zhao Gang, your family isn’t rich either, is it? Why don’t you come with me and kill Ye Cheng’s family, then take his reward and leave? Don’t you know he’s already offended the owner of the biggest restaurant in the county ? His misfortune is just a matter of time ! Ge Wulai, you dare to hit me ? I’ll hit you all! I’ll even send you to see the authorities! Why are you back so soon? Ye Cheng, let me tell you , don’t be so smug ! You think I’m afraid of you just because you have an official position ? You won’t be able to cause trouble for long ! Don’t waste your breath on him! He actually wants to kill people and send him to see the authorities! What do you mean ‘I won’t be able to cause trouble for long’? What benefits did Manager Li give you? You don’t know, do you? Manager Li…” The shopkeeper gave me thirty taels of silver just to keep an eye on you. And Shopkeeper Li’s relative is a high-ranking official in the capital. If you offend him, killing you is easier than killing an ant for him. Oh dear, I want to see who dies first! Uncle Feng, four hundred and fifty coins; you, two hundred and seventy coins; Ye Dabao, five hundred and seventy coins. Do you want money or grain? Grain ! Third Brother, thanks to you, at least we can at least get some food from these wild vegetables during this famine! Yes , Third Uncle is such a good person , yet that bastard Ge Wulai actually tried to lay a hand on you. Killing him would be too lenient! Ye Cheng, Ge Wulai is sentenced to be executed in the autumn— that’s so satisfying! Evil gets its just deserts! Yes, yes, bullying people is really hard on you. Please come in and rest. Hey, Ye Cheng , have you offended someone recently ? Ge Wulai told you. He said someone paid him to keep an eye on you, and he was afraid you’d retaliate, so he did it. I’ve thought about it carefully… It’s not that simple. I know who that person is, but we’ll deal with whatever comes our way, Uncle. Don’t worry, I can take care of myself. Manager Li is wicked and hates me for cutting off his source of income . # It seems we can no longer cooperate with this person . You know what I mean . The weather has been unusual lately , so you’d better stock up on some food and not give it all away. I think it might rain heavily soon. I’ll help the villagers who are in trouble if I can , but where will this heavy rain come from? A red sunrise means no trouble at all. I’ve only seen such a red sunrise once in all my years of life. After that, there was a great flood . It seems we need to clear the ditches and canals in the fields so that if a flood comes, we’ll have some protection. ” Preparations are easy , but the crops in the fields are too late to harvest now. Harvesting takes two days, threshing takes seven or eight days, and then drying takes even longer—there’s simply not enough time. I have a way to finish threshing the crops in just two more days ! Really, folks! I’ve gathered you all here today because I have something to tell you. Today’s sunrise might be a sign of heavy rain later. Really? You’re not kidding, are you? What will happen to the crops if it rains ? We’re about to harvest! Don’t panic, Ye Cheng has a way. I’ll invent a tool within two days to speed up the threshing process. As long as you listen to the village head’s instructions, the harvest will definitely be successful! I believe Ye Cheng ! Village head , just tell me how to do it! Ye Cheng is a ninth-rank official appointed by the emperor himself, and he’s even traded grain for our wild vegetables. I believe him too! Okay , then let’s trust Ye Cheng. Let’s go harvest the crops first! Okay! Okay ! Let’s go! Let’s go! Hurry up! Let’s go! System: Do you have a threshing tool suitable for this era? Detected: Threshing tool: Flail. Purchase? Yes !” A flail costs a thousand taels. Host, if you can’t afford it, you don’t have to buy it. Oh, I ‘ll draw one myself. System Ye Cheng , how’s your tool? The sky outside is getting overcast ; it might rain any minute now. Ta-da! I’ve finished drawing it ! Mother , it’s raining! Your old house isn’t safe . Why don’t you move in and live with us ? Yes, Mother , if it weren’t for you that time with that scoundrel Ge, I would have opened the door. If you move in, we can be more filial. Okay, I ‘ll listen to you, Mother. This is worth half a day’s work for me. Folks, the tool I made has a simple structure. Everyone, hurry up and copy it. Let’s try to get all the grain into the granary before the rain. Good lad, you’re really something! You actually made it! It looks like it’s going to rain. Village head, I’m going to give the tool to the county magistrate and then let a few villages also harvest some grain. What do you think ? You make sense. Let ‘s go to the county government. 4 yuan . Just one last step to promotion. If the flood comes, I’m afraid all the previous achievements will be wasted. Sir, Qingshan Village Village Head “I request an audience with Lord Zhengshilang. Please, Lord Ye Cheng, you were able to quell the locust plague last time; perhaps you’ll have a solution this time as well . Lord Zhou, Lord Ye, your arrival is timely! I observed the heavens last night and foresaw heavy rain. Your visit is also due to this matter. We also guessed there would be heavy rain, and I anticipated flooding. Therefore, I quickly created a tool to speed up grain threshing. This will allow the villagers to quickly thresh and store their grain. What is this thing called? This thing is called a flail. It can greatly accelerate the threshing process. Whether it’s beans or wheat , it can be done in any way. I can vouch for you, Lord Ye. Every word you say is true. We’ve tried it in our village. This flail threshing is several times faster than manual threshing. Excellent! Ye Cheng, you’ve done a great service this time! Guards , quickly take this flail to make samples and distribute them to various villages and towns to accelerate grain storage. If there is any delay, I will not let you off lightly. Yes , sir! ” Ye Cheng If this flail could be widely adopted throughout the country, all the people would benefit. I would write a memorial to commend you, and I guarantee you’d be promoted two ranks. No need, sir . I am also an official of the court, concerned for the people and loyal to His Majesty; it’s my duty. Ah , sir, you truly have the people at heart! The rewards will certainly be plentiful. You, sir, will all receive a reward. Ye Cheng, the village head, has rendered meritorious service by presenting the flail; the rewards will come together. Go back and wait; I am grateful for the reward. Thank you, magistrate, for the reward. This flail is truly useful. All three mu of my land have been threshed. With this, our village’s grain has hope! This is all thanks to Ye Cheng! Ye Cheng, our village’s grain is almost all threshed; we just need to dry it for a day or two before storing it . Why are you still unhappy? What if there’s a flood after the grain is stored? Our village only has high ground ; what if there really is a flood ? I have a solution: pay the land tax first. If a flood comes, the land tax will be delayed anyway. We can pay the land tax first and then have no worries. What’s left will be our lifeline. You’re right . I’ll go and inform everyone. These past few years have been full of natural disasters , and our village’s land tax is two years overdue. Now the grain is almost stored , it’s time to pay the outstanding taxes . No, the grain has just been harvested; we don’t even have enough for our own families . Where will we get surplus grain to pay the land tax? I was thinking of selling the grain to buy some meat, but if we pay the land tax, who knows how long we’ll have to wait before we can eat meat again? I know… “Everyone’s having a hard time, but we can’t not pay the imperial land tax . It’s really not good. We only have so little grain. What will we eat after we pay it? Listen to me, everyone. I know you’re all having a tough time right now , but if it rains and floods, not only will we lose our grain, but we won’t be able to pay the land tax either . That ‘s right, if there really is a flood , we ‘ll have nothing left. Ye Cheng is right . I trust Ye Cheng. Ye Cheng won’t harm us. I also trust Ye Cheng. Let’s go. I didn’t expect Ye Cheng to calm the villagers down with just a few simple words. It seems Ye Cheng has a high standing in the hearts of the villagers. I’m really getting old, sir . The rain is getting heavier outside. My father’s mud-brick house might not hold up. When you come back later, could you go and check on it? I’ve already made arrangements.” Since we’re family, of course we should stay together. I’ll bring Dad and Mom over later. That’s great! Boss , how much for this horse? This gentleman has a good eye. This horse is one I just acquired. It ‘s said to be a descendant of warhorses. Not only is it tall and strong, but it’s also obedient. Picking up my parents-in-law will require carrying things , so how about buying a carriage? It’ll be more convenient for deliveries later. How much is the horse and the carriage together? This horse and carriage together is fifty taels. Thirty taels is fine. If you agree, I’ll pay. Deal ! Brother-in -law Qingyuan , what brings you here ? It’s raining heavily. I’m afraid it’s a flood. Your sister sent me to pick you up. Hurry up and pack your things, let’s go! Flood! Hurry up and pack your things . Don’t worry about the missing people. As long as everyone is safe, that’s all that matters. Qingyuan , hurry up and go! Come on! ” Brother-in – law , the bridge in front seems to have collapsed. We have to go back quickly! The flood is coming ! Everyone, run to higher ground!” “Ye Cheng’s new house is on high ground, hurry ! The flood is coming !” ” Qingwan , oh dear , you’re finally back! Are you alright? It ‘s alright , our house is on high ground. The village head asked the villagers to take shelter here from the rain .” “Ye Cheng, just now the village head asked everyone to come out, I looked all around but couldn’t find your eldest brother. Is he still in the village? I know the eldest brother is really lazy and bad , but he’s also my flesh and blood! Mother , don’t worry, I’ll go save him! Be careful ! Oh dear, I just got a beating, and now it hurts so much! Why aren’t the villagers coming to save us? Yes , will we drown? Or…” Why don’t you go and beg Ye Cheng? Since he can help Da Bao, he can definitely save us too. Or you could go and kowtow to him and apologize. I’m not going. Ye Cheng, what right does he have to kidnap my son? Ye Da Bao, that unfilial son, is so close to him , it’s infuriating! Oh , but I don’t want to die! Someone save us! Ye Cheng , I knew you wouldn’t abandon me, after all, we’re brothers. From now on, as long as you give me money, I’ll do whatever you say. Saving you two isn’t impossible. Sign this contract of servitude. Ye Cheng , you ‘re kicking me when I’m down! Don’t go too far! Ye Cheng, you’re taking advantage of my misfortune! We’d rather die than sign this contract of servitude ! Fine , you ‘ll all die then. The flood is coming in two incense sticks’ time ! Hey, stop, stop! We’ll sign it , don’t abandon us! Once we sign, we’ll be at your beck and call . If we dare to break the contract , we’ll sell you to a brokerage ! Sign it! Sign it now! Survival is the priority! Sign it now! Walk quietly! Hey, Ye Cheng, you’re such a good person! You even saved these two! If they ever speak ill of you again, I’ll beat them to death! Anyone else would have ignored them long ago! Boss Ye, meeting Ye Cheng is truly a blessing from eight lifetimes! Everyone , do n’t panic ! This place is high up , it’s safe for now . There are people in the water! Da Zhu , hey Da Zhu , Da Zhu, are you alright? Dad, I’m fine ! You brat , why isn’t this woman moving ? Is she dead? What bad luck! Dazhu , throw her back into the water! Nobody move her! She ‘s still angry! Where did this anger come from ? Don’t let her bring bad luck on you! Nonsense! Dazhu, stop ! Press her chest with your hands crossed! Quick! She’s alive ! My God , I didn’t see wrong! This dead person is alive! Ye Cheng can even bring the dead back to life! That’s amazing! Do you know what you’re doing? Mother,
something bad is going to happen to you! I know I was wrong! What am I going to do ? Okay, Dazhu, I know I was wrong! Look, her clothes are all soaked! Quickly, let her go home and change her clothes! Ah, girl, are you alright? Where is this? Girl , where are you from? How did you get swept here by the flood? I don’t remember! My mind is blank! Did she hit her head on a rock in the river and lose her memory? Who are you ? Why am I here ? This is Qingshan Village, Nanle County. You were swept here by the flood and were saved by my eldest son, Dazhu. Girl, don’t worry , once you recover, we’ll take you to find your family. The ginger soup is ready! It even has brown sugar in it ! It’s so sweet! “It’s my eldest son , he’s the one who saved you, Dazhu! Come and see the girl you saved! No need, I still have to work. Hey, Dazhu , Dazhu, you’re so embarrassed! But this girl is so beautiful, and she has such a connection with you. If it could lead to a good relationship, that wouldn’t be bad. Girl, just stay here and rest . For the sake of your reputation, I’ll tell you you’re my distant niece. Is that alright? From now on, I’ll call her Sixin. What do you think, sir? I see Sixin is upright and gentle . Dazhu is of age. If we can’t find her family, we might as well try to match her up with you. Don’t overthink it. Whether she’s destined for you or not is still uncertain. This woman’s speech and demeanor exude propriety; she’s probably not from an ordinary family. Girl, I can’t live anymore. All my things have been washed away. ” Ye Cheng The rain has stopped, and I need you to make a decision about rebuilding. Oh dear, all my grain has been washed away! Folks , folks, listen to me! Most of the houses in the village are ruins. If they aren’t rebuilt, we won’t even have a place to sleep. But we have plenty of stones, so where will we get thatch for the roofs ? System, how much silver will I get after selling the produce grown in my space? So far, I’ve harvested 60,000 taels of silver from the crops I’ve grown in my space . There are only a little over a hundred households in the village. If we use tiles to repair the houses, one tael of silver per household would only amount to 100 taels. I can afford that. Village head , don’t worry. We’ll use tiles to repair the houses in our village. As for buying tiles… “I’ll pay for the tiles, Ye Cheng. Are you serious? Hmm, no, no! There are over a hundred households here, which adds up to a hundred taels. How can I let you pay for that ? That would be taking advantage of you. You ‘ve helped us so much, right? What are we if you have to pay for the tiles? How about this : I plan to build a workshop in a while, and I’ll need a lot of help. Everyone can come and work for me, and the wages will be used to pay off the debt. Ye Cheng , don’t worry, I’ll sell everything I own to pay you back . From now on, you’ll be the savior of our Qingshan Village. If anyone dares to bully your family, I’ll be the first to kill them. Ah, people in ancient times were really honest.” It seems Qingshan Village will be my biggest backer from now on. Ye Cheng, get over here right now ! Isn’t this Manager Li? What brings you here? I haven’t even gone to see Ge Wulai about this yet , and here you are! Ye Cheng, how dare you break the contract! I ordered a month’s worth of fruit, why didn’t you deliver it in the last few days? Do you know how many rich and powerful people I’ve offended because of this ? We do have a contract, that’s true , but Manager Li should know the rules of business, right? You broke my rules, so naturally I have to cut off your orders. What nonsense are you talking about ? Oh dear, the matter of Ge Wulai has been thoroughly investigated. Why don’t we go to the county magistrate first and have him cut off the order? “Let’s get this straight! What scoundrel Ge? I don’t even know him! You broke the contract first! If you don’t compensate me, I’ll make you pay! You dare touch Ye Cheng ? You’re all asking for trouble! You old fox , you harmed Ye Cheng and now you’re blaming him ! Let’s beat him up and show him the power of Qingshan Village! Hey, heroes , let’s talk this out ! Ye Cheng , you’ve humiliated me like this , I’ll fight you to the death! Hey, everyone, stop chasing me! I, Ye Cheng, am not so easily bullied! Manager Li , our contract is now over! Malice level detected ! Please be on guard! It seems Manager Li is still up to no good! #Dad, what’s this? These are some iron nails I bought from the county town.” Tonight, you’ll embed them all into our wall first , making sure the pointed ends face outwards. I understand , Dad , you’re trying to prevent thieves. Yes, yes, Brother Dazhu, is there anything I can help with? No , you’re just recovering , you should rest. Brother Dazhu , I just want to help, why are you running away? I’m not going to eat people. These two seem a bit interesting. I must have been led astray by Qingwan. Don’t think nonsense. * Ding* Malice detected . Host, please be on guard. Finally here! System. Purchase Mall. Electric baton. Have we been discovered? Probably not. Searching. 300 meters ahead. Malice value rising. Found ! Ah, these two idiots , I wonder how things went ? It’s all dark here, can you even get things done? Ah , isn’t that Manager Li? Brother Ye , I heard screams. What? There’s a knife too ? What happened? It’s this guy with a few vagrants trying to do something evil . We… “It’s not that we’re bad people. The flood washed away our homes, and we can’t survive. We just want to keep living to exchange for some food. You are refugees . How many refugees are there around here? There are too many . We have nowhere to go but to hide in the ravines . If this causes trouble, it will be terrible. We must inform the magistrate as soon as possible. Oh no! Someone attacked the Minister of Personnel! What? Ye Cheng ? Ye Cheng is in trouble! He’s my lucky star for promotion! I want to see who ‘s so bold! Ye Cheng, are you alright? I want to see who dares to attack the Minister of Personnel personally appointed by the Emperor! I ‘m fine. It was Manager Li who hired people to seek revenge. I’ve already apprehended them. It’s good that you’re alright. Don’t worry, I ‘ll take care of things for you today. But that’s not all. Those people Manager Li brought are all refugees. After the flood, there should be a large number of refugees in Nanle County. There are refugees? I didn’t receive any information about it. Then …” These refugees are deliberately hiding their tracks; they must be after something great , Your Excellency. You must take precautions early. I will send men to investigate immediately. If the situation is true, then we will make further arrangements. Hey, Magistrate, do you have any methods to deal with the refugees? Magistrate Zhou said he needs to verify the information first , and it will probably take some time. What’s wrong with you today? Why are you waiting here for me, Ye Cheng? We’re doomed. The people who went to the city to exchange grain said the refugees have returned with them. Our village’s grain has been exposed. Quickly lock up the granary and send men with weapons to guard the village entrance. We don’t have any weapons; we only have a few hoes . How can we stop the refugees ? The area outside the village is full of refugees. They are shouting to enter the village, and they are very aggressive . Summon all the able-bodied men. We must stop them and make way . We know your village has grain. Let us in , or we will burn the village down. Grain is the villagers’ lifeblood; we will not give it to you . If you dare to come … We’ll make sure you never return , hahaha! You think you can stop us ? Do you think you can stop the main force behind us? Let me tell you the truth, we’re just scouts. There are thousands of men behind us. Hand over the grain now , and maybe we ‘ll spare your lives. Don’t blame us for being impolite then! Dazhu , you dare hit me? Our leader won’t let you get away with this! What kind of bullshit leader are you ? I think you ‘re just a bunch of bandits! Village head, let ‘s lock them up first, we can’t let them go back and report! But there are thousands of them , we can’t hold them off! How about we share some of the grain with them? If we share the grain, will we starve? We must immediately organize the villagers into patrol teams to guard the village entrance during the day and take turns patrolling at night to prevent the invading refugees. You ‘re right, we finally went from having no grain at home to having surplus grain in every household. We can’t let the refugees ruin Yecheng! Lord Zhou has sent word that a large number of refugees have gathered in Nanle County, urging you to make plans early. What did the county magistrate say? Are there reinforcements to help us fight the refugees? Lord Zhou himself is in dire straits; the refugees have besieged the county town, telling us to fend for ourselves. What can we do? Even the county town is besieged ! How can our village be safe? We finally have some food ; are we just going to watch it be stolen? Listen to me, everyone! The more difficult the situation, the more we must unite. We absolutely cannot abandon our homes . We absolutely cannot let the refugees steal our food. We must protect our homes! Yes , we must resist together and defend our village! Don’t worry, there’s only one main road at the village entrance. We must block the refugees from entering . I still have the excellent weapons the county magistrate sent. We will definitely be able to protect our homes! Okay, Dad , I heard the refugees are coming! My friends and I also want to go help ! You little brat, what good will you do? Just stay home! Who says we can’t help? I’ll prove them wrong! Tie Dan, Tie Dan, wake up! The refugees are coming! Let’s go help! What good are they? Even adults can’t handle the refugees! We can patrol the village and stop any bad guys we see! Da Zhu , what are you playing? I want to play with you too ! Dad, Er Zhu, what are you doing with these little brats ? Dad! We’re patrolling! Hey, you’re only allowed to stay in the village! Don’t run away ! Dad , you admit we can patrol? Great! Go away! This brat is quite something! Heroes have always emerged from among the young! But Ye Cheng, Er Zhu is too young to participate in patrols. What patrol? He just thinks it’s fun . Besides, there are strong young men guarding the outside. The kids can just wander around the village; there’s no danger. Hey , look over there, it’s all dark. Doesn’t it look like a group of people? Tie Dan, they’re refugees ! There are a lot of them! Go back and tell the adults. I’ll find a way to stop them! This wretched village is quite well-equipped. We can only go around and grab the old and weak as human shields. One group throws them out; the other group gets ready. Don’t let them come up! Throw them out! ” We’ve been discovered! Good riddance ! We’ve taken them down! These refugees are nothing but naive fools! Watch me capture you alive! I’ll kill you first ! No, run! Run! Stop right there, you brat ! Where are you going ? Sorry, what are you standing there for? Run! Uncle ! Brother, you dare touch my brother? You’re asking for death ! Erzhu ! Erzhu! I ‘ve got a leader! Erzhu ! Erzhu! Are you hurt anywhere ? Dad , I’m fine . Uncle saved me! Ouch! It hurts! The villagers said you helped build the house, but I didn’t believe them. Looks like you’ve turned over a new leaf after signing the indenture ! I just didn’t want to be your slave for life . I did this all for myself. By the way, Ye Cheng , you should thank me properly. If it weren’t for me today, your son…” Zizao died, you should call me your savior. Stop trying to make yourself look good. You dare say you weren’t sleeping here to avoid patrol? Those refugees aren’t that tough. You’ll be alright, but you still need to be taken care of. You’ve been kind to Dazhu and Erzhu, and I’ve paid for your medical expenses. Stop pretending to be kind; you really need to compensate me, Dabao’s third uncle. Although my dad is a bit muddle-headed , I think he’s truly reformed this time, so I want to take him home to recover. Okay , and this indenture, take it . I only signed it to prevent him from causing trouble . Recently, he’s changed a lot; he helped build houses in the village and even saved Erzhu. This indenture… no need to thank me , Uncle. I’ll definitely keep an eye on him. Oh, he really returned the contract. Uncle said you saved Erzhu. #We’re still family. Who’s family with him? Girl, I saved Erzhu purely to annoy him. Oh right , but your third uncle is still a good person. Go find Ye Cheng. The refugee army is here again. Yes, it’s Magistrate Zhou’s men . The refugees in the county have definitely been dealt with. We’re safe now . Great! Now I can sleep peacefully. Your humble servant greets Magistrate Zhou. Brother Ye , no need for formalities . The refugees in the county have been defeated by the county soldiers. Today, there’s something more important. Before, your flail was highly praised in the court . The emperor’s reward has been issued. Even the prefect has come from the capital. Your humble servant, Ye Cheng. “Greetings, Prefect! Greetings, messenger! I have long heard of Lord Ye’s wisdom and courage. Today, seeing him in person, I am truly impressed . Your flail has solved a great problem. His Majesty is extremely pleased with this and has specially ordered us to come and bestow honors upon you. Prefect, you flatter me. I have merely done what I could for the people. No need for modesty. Quickly, burn incense and offer sacrifices. Please invite your family members to join us in this celebration . I also request that you two gentlemen move into my humble abode. By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Ye Chengdi, for his outstanding
achievements in creating the flail to relieve grain shortages and alleviate floods, is hereby granted five hundred taels of gold, twenty bolts of silk, and fifty acres of fertile land. He is hereby promoted to the seventh rank of Xuan Yi Lang, bestowed with official robes and a jade talisman. May he achieve further merits . This is the decree. Your subject accepts the decree and thanks Your Majesty for your great favor. Lord Ye, your promotion from the ninth rank to the seventh rank is unprecedented. You are truly a pillar of the state, entirely thanks to your patronage and the Emperor’s grace.” This woman looks very familiar. Gentlemen, you must be tired from your journey. Please rest in my humble abode for a while . I have other matters to attend to today and must take my leave. We ‘ll meet again another day. Prefect and Sixin , do you know each other ? With this imperial reward, we’ll probably never lack money again. Oh dear, I’ve decided to find a tutor for the children. We can’t let them remain illiterate forever. But hiring a tutor is so expensive! It’s better to save the money for Dazhu ‘s marriage. My wife is now a seventh-rank official; if the children can’t read, people will laugh their heads off. That’s the point. Should we send them to a private school or hire a private tutor? Actually, I can teach Sixin. Can you read ? Do you remember anything? Do you remember your name? I don’t know, but I recognize the characters I see. Can’t you recall anything from before ? You’re truly learned and sensible— no ordinary person indeed. Dazhu ‘s love life is still not smooth. Since that’s the case , you’ll teach her . All children who want to learn to read can learn. Hmm, that represents crops. The grain we eat is grown from rice seedlings. Dazhu , your handwriting is so beautiful! Brother, you should praise Dazhu for being beautiful. What’s the use of just praising her handwriting? Don’t talk nonsense. A young lady’s reputation is the most important . Wanru, your mother has been searching for you like crazy. You’ve suffered so much. Seeing you’re alright, I’m relieved . Let’s go home quickly. Dazhu , Wanru, are you going home? It was Brother Dazhu who saved me. I’ve forgotten many things. They saved me, named me Dazhu , and helped me recover. So I want to repay Brother Dazhu. He saved you, and we’re not ungrateful people. Jinhong , bring up the thank-you gift. In the future, if your family has any problems , you can ask my master for help. But you should put away any improper thoughts . A bunch of peasants dare to… “You covet the daughter of a fifth-rank prefect? ​​Two thousand taels of silver is a bargain for you. I don’t have any. I just … Wanru and the son of the Duke of the State are already engaged . A bunch of peasants dare to try to marry her? Don’t tarnish Wanru’s reputation. Brother, that ‘s not how it works. Breaking the engagement will offend the Duke of the State. Do you think your father has enough heads to chop off? Brother Dazhu , I’m sorry , I dare not accept the prefect’s silver. Please take her back. We only rescued Sixin, not Wanru. Since she doesn’t appreciate it, we can’t blame her. Does that mean we’ll add these two thousand taels of silver to my sister’s dowry? Mother , let’s go . Sixin, my father loves her so much . I know I’m not good enough for her , but I really love her. Son, you snobbish son. If you like someone, you should fight for them yourself. Father will help you find a way. Thank you, Father. Dazhu has been locked in his room all day without a drop of water. What should we do? A mere fifth-rank official dares to look down on us. It seems my rank is too low.” Mother, I want to join the army ! Being a soldier means risking your life. Mother doesn’t want me to. Father said if you like someone , you should fight for them. I know I’m not good enough for Wanru now , but I want to climb to a position where I can speak to her as an equal. Even if she really rejects me, I want to hear her say it herself. Good boy, Father supports you in joining the army. Do a good job and don’t bring shame to our Ye family. Good father, I also want to make something of myself. I want to study at Mingyue County Academy, take the imperial examinations, and become a high -ranking official . No one will dare to bully our Erzhu. He’s sensible now , but the academy tuition is expensive and the journey is long. Money isn’t a problem. As long as you have backbone , Father will sell everything he owns to pave the way for you. Son , when you get to the army, follow orders, think things through before acting, don’t be impulsive, and take good care of yourself. Father, don’t worry, I will definitely make something of myself. You really intend to send the child to risk his life? I know joining the army is dangerous, but I’ve already spoken to Magistrate Zhou. At least this way, Dazhu will have something to do , and he can gradually forget and give up. Don’t you agree? Ah, Father and Mother, I’ll take my leave. It’s alright , I’ve arranged things with Magistrate Zhou . The patrol inspector’s troops are generally just for patrols, not too dangerous. I hope Dazhu can return safely. I’ve been indulging in comfort and forgotten the harm of being powerless in this era. It seems I need to work hard to get promoted. These potatoes I bought from the mall have actually sprouted! Doesn’t that mean they can be grown here ? These potatoes are plentiful and filling, which is a good thing for the people who have just suffered from natural disasters. If I offer them up , I might get a promotion. Qingwan, what’s wrong? I saw someone outside delivering a letter. Quickly check if it’s from Dazhu. It’s an urgent letter from Lord Ye and Lord Zhou . Lord Zhou says that Ye Dazhu encountered a vassal king’s rebel army during his inspection tour and has already gone with the inspector to scout the enemy’s situation . Aren’t the rebels going to fight to the death? My lord , what do you think we should do? I’ve also heard about the rebellion. Three months ago, the vassal king’s rebellion was defeated by the court, leaving only remnants. Could they have fled to Nanle County? The rebels are passing through Mingyue County, and the prefect is retreating. They will definitely come to Nanle County. Lord Zhou invited me to the county office to discuss matters. Take care of yourself and stay with your family. What? We are also in danger. My lord , you must bring Dazhu back! Hey, Brother Ye! Zhou Haoren said, “Alright, my son is just on patrol. ” Hey, Brother Ye , don’t worry. Who knew that a patrol would encounter rebels? Now, my nephew is just going to scout the enemy’s whereabouts . The rebels are passing through Nanle County . If they attack the city, not only my nephew, but also your and my lives will be in danger. Stop talking nonsense, I have a way to save Nanle. “Brother Ye, you only need to agree to one condition before I knew you had a way. You said I had a batch of excellent equipment that could definitely defeat the enemy , but you must keep the source of the equipment a secret, otherwise we’ll both lose our heads . It’s a deal. As long as we can hold the county town, don’t even mention keeping it a secret. You tell me to go east, I absolutely won’t go west. You wait here, we’ll go in and get the weapons later. There are still weapons here. Of course, there aren’t any , it’s just that I rented this warehouse to mislead Manager Li about the source of the immortal fruit. I didn’t expect it to come in handy now. Brother Ye, how do you have so many excellent weapons? And the craftsmanship is so exquisite . Hey , are you planning to rebel too ? Hey, I don’t have that kind of intention. Don’t forget what you promised me. Don’t worry, as long as you don’t have bad intentions, I won’t tell. But after this incident, I guarantee you’ll be promoted two ranks. If it weren’t for protecting my family, I wouldn’t have gotten involved in this matter , sir. Sir , sir, two thousand rebels have arrived outside the county town. How could this be?” “Hurry up and give me 20 yuan ! I’m giving you half an hour to hand over all your grain, or I’ll raze the county to the ground and kill you all!” (A series of seemingly unrelated phrases: ” Drawing bows and releasing arrows , is this small county town equipped with such fine weapons ? Brother Ye , you are indeed brave and resourceful! These rebels are just at their last gasp. If we rest and then besiege the county town , the grain in the city is not much. If they insist on besieging us, our grain won’t last more than a few days. There are many wealthy households in the city, so why not borrow grain from them? Hey, merchants have always been profit-driven and avoid harm, how could they possibly borrow our grain? Come closer , Brother Ye , your idea is brilliant! Using both kindness and force , I don’t believe we can’t raise grain. Invite the wealthy people in the city to come and discuss matters . Who is in charge of Nanle County? That guy on the city wall was quite arrogant . Your Highness, that magistrate is Zhou Haoren. That young man should be a seventh-rank Xuan Yilang. Ye Cheng , it was he who wounded your personal guard with an arrow last night. Good for you, Ye Cheng! Besiege the county town and cut off its water and food. Let’s see how long they can hold out, Lord Zhou…”) It’s not that we donate grain, it’s just that we don’t have much surplus at home . I won’t take your grain for nothing. I will erect a monument and inscribe your name on it. This is an opportunity to be remembered for eternity . Of course, if you hoard grain at a critical moment, what’s the difference between that and colluding with the enemy? Everyone knows which one to choose: donating to be remembered for eternity or colluding with the enemy . Going down to Yecheng, this combination of kindness and coercion really works! Dazhu, what should we do? Before I left home, my father gave me a powerful laxative , saying it was stronger than ordinary laxatives. Let’s just pour the laxative into their water. That will definitely throw the rebels into chaos. Hmm, success or failure hinges on this. Father , look who I brought you. Well done! Let me go! I am a prince. You don’t deserve to be called a prince . Take away the rebels! My lord, you must be tired from your journey. Please take a seat . Where is Ye Cheng? Lord Ye, besides escorting the rebels to the capital, I also have some good news for you. I hope you will forgive me for coming , my lord . Lord Ye, there’s no need for such formalities. His Majesty has heard that you won a victory with fewer troops. I’m so happy I can’t stop smiling! They specially sent my servant to deliver this reward. What virtue or ability do I possess to receive such grace from Your Majesty? I am truly humbled. Ye Cheng , a seventh-rank Xuanyi Lang from Nanle County, receives the imperial decree: Ye Cheng defeated the rebels with a smaller force. He is rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and promoted to fourth-rank Zhongxian Dafu. Zhou Haoren is promoted two ranks. I hope both of you will continue your efforts and serve the court loyally. Respectfully yours, Your Majesty. Lord Ye , Lord Ye’s promotion of three ranks is unprecedented in this dynasty! It’s clear that Lord Ye will surely become a pillar of the court in the future! You flatter me , my lord . It’s all thanks to His Majesty’s grace! My lord , you’ve had a long journey. Please take a seat. Lord Ye , please ! Ye Cheng must rise to prominence! You must cling to his coattails ! Congratulations! Lord Ye, you’ve been promoted! Da Zhu has also become an official! It’s truly a double celebration! If Si Xin saw this scene, he would surely be happy for Da Zhu too. Don’t overthink it. I’m now at least a fourth-rank official, just one rank higher than the prefect. In a few days, I plan to go to Mingyue County to talk to Si Xin’s family. I ‘m also working hard to be matched with Si Xin as soon as possible. My son, you have ambition ! This is Ye Erzhu’s family ! Who is Ye Cheng ? Your child caused trouble at the academy! Erzhu ‘s mother , Erzhu, who beat you like this? Does it hurt? Mother , this is just a minor injury . That guy over there has a bloody head, much worse than me ! You brat ! Why are you trying to fight like that? I came in first place in the student exam, and he accused me of stealing his thunder and cheating. I was so angry that I started fighting with him. I am the son of the prefect. Hitting you is an honor for me. Just because you are the son of the prefect , does that mean you can do whatever you want? Son , take this and go see the prefect. Father, what is this? Will he listen to you? Just tell me. We made an appointment. If anyone dares to lay a hand on me, I’ll kill him. Alright, Father, watch this! Who is the prefect ? ​​Get out here! Who are you? You are the prefect! My father wants to talk to you. Who is your father? Ye Cheng from Qingshan Village. My father has brought you here. Your father, this humble official, pays his respects to Lord Ye. My unworthy son has been disobedient . Please forgive him , Your Excellency . Prefect, what a great official you are! You allow your son to insult the family of a high-ranking official at will. What crime should you commit? My unworthy son is still young and ignorant. Please forgive him this time. If you don’t teach your son properly… Father , I can let this go this time because he’s still young, but he must apologize to my son. If he dares to bully others again, even if he’s young, I will never forgive him. Thank you, sir. I’ll make this brat apologize to the young master. You brat, you ‘ve bullied Young Master Ye ! Apologize now , or I will never forgive you! Father, how could you hit someone? I didn’t know he was Young Master Ye’s son! Young Master Ye , please be magnanimous and forgive me this time. Come here , Mingyue County is full of bullies who prey on the weak. Erzhu is far from home, so these kinds of things are bound to happen again. Mingyue County is far from… Qingshan Village is indeed far away. I have an idea. Why don’t we open a restaurant in Mingyue County? That way we can take care of Erzhu nearby. What do you think? How did such a good engagement fall through? It’s all your fault! When the rebel army besieged the city, you cowered and didn’t come out. The emperor must be dissatisfied with us. The Duke of Fuguo and the emperor are angry with you. That’s why the engagement was broken off. How unreasonable! It’s just a broken engagement. I can find Wanru a better backer. If I had known this would happen , I would have let Wanru marry Ye Dazhu. I heard that Ye Cheng is now a fourth-rank official, promoted three ranks in a row. How glorious! He’s just a peasant. Even if he gets promoted, he’ll still be a lowly person. Wanru marrying into his family… That would be a disgrace to our family! So I was just a pawn in their game of exchanging interests. Now that the Duke of Fu has broken off the engagement , I don’t need to worry about my father anymore. Oh, give up , silly child ! What happened to you ? What happened to you? Before, I was engaged to the Duke of Fu, and I was afraid that breaking the engagement would implicate my parents, so I dared not disobey. Now that the engagement is broken, that’s why I ran away. Silly girl, if you do this, the engagement is ruined, and it’ll be even worse. They want to marry me off to someone else without considering my feelings at all . I don’t want to be a pawn anymore! Give up! Don’t worry , as long as I’m here, no one can touch you. Our family can accommodate you. “Okay, you’ll be living at our house from now on. I’ll send word to my eldest son to ask for leave and come back. Thank you, Mom. Give up , you’re back, Dazhu. I’ve escaped. From now on, all I want is to be with you. Really, am I dreaming? You’re upright, brave, and sincere— a thousand times, ten thousand times better than those who only know how to use me for their own gain. Give up, let’s be frank. Are you willing to marry Dazhu? As long as Dazhu and Dazhu are together, I’m not afraid of anything. I’m willing to marry you. Give up , I love you. Give up. Since you two are in love , I’ll pick an auspicious day and hold a grand wedding for you.” Hand over Wanru! Prefect Cai! Prefect Cai, you ‘ve trespassed on the residence of a fourth-rank official! You’re showing me no respect! You’re giving up your precious daughter to marry this peasant ? Are you trying to ruin the Cai family? Sister, come back with me ! Don’t embarrass yourself here! I’m not going back! I’m staying here! Didn’t you hear her? I am a fourth-rank official, a Grand Master of the Palace. Though I have no real power , I ‘m not someone to be trifled with . If you make another move, don’t blame me for being impolite! I ‘m just looking for my daughter! Wanru, come back with me! I’ve already written a letter to the Prince of the State. If you can’t be my wife, you can be my concubine! Just bear with it for my sake ! How could I have such a selfish and greedy father ? It’s absurd! There are people in this world who would do anything for themselves! I really can’t praise the character of Prefect Cai, who made his daughter a concubine for personal gain. What do you know, Wanru? If you stay here today , I will never have you as my daughter again . I am not your daughter . From today onwards , I sever all ties with the Cai family. I am simply giving up. It’s a clean break , I hope you won’t regret it . Don’t cry, this is your home from now on. My dowry includes one hundred taels of gold, one thousand taels of silver , ten bolts of silk and satin, and various furniture and utensils. This is alright , your mother specially added it for you. Just take it, thank you, mother. I
will take good care of you from now on and not let you suffer any grievances . We will live a good life, have children, and protect this home. Brother Ye , hurry up and unveil the plaque, everyone is waiting . Hello everyone, Fulimen Restaurant is opening today! Welcome to try our signature braised meat. We also have opening specials, so please patronize us. This braised meat smells amazing , and these peaches look so rare! Ding dong! Congratulations, host! Your shop has been upgraded to intermediate level , unlocking more items.
