When Li Xiaoran heard this, she imdiately nodded.
“Sure, just make the arrangents. I’m ready at anyti!”
Luo Cheng thought for a mont and said, “Why don’t we go now?! I’ve already arranged for them to wait at the farmstead. A total of twelve people ca today!”
Li Xiaoran teased, “Twelve people? All of them are here to follow you? Husband, you don’t refuse anyone who cos?”
Luo Cheng explained with a smile, “It’s not that I don’t refuse anyone, but many people sll the ‘at’ on my body! In fact, these twelve people were selected from more than a hundred people. Otherwise, you would have to see more than a hundred people!”
As Li Xiaoran spoke, she thought of sothing else, “Alright! I want to see how the farmstead is doing. The fish in the fish pond should have grown in the past few months! Can they be sold?”
Luo Cheng said, “In the past few months, while Zi Yang got soone to buy fish seedlings to feed the fish, he also bought so fish to raise in the fish pond.” Luo Cheng thought of what Li Xiaoran had said previously and asked,
“Are you planning to start that fish hotpot business?”
Li Xiaoran said, “It’s better to eat fish hotpot in winter. It’s too hot for sumr. Now, we can make grilled fish and salad carp. Then, we can also make so cold beverages. I believe business will definitely be good.” Li Xiaoran thought of sothing and added, “I rember that you made sour plum soup before. It tasted very good. We can boil the sour plum soup and put it in the cold storage before selling it!”
Luo Cheng asked after a mont, “Are you planning to use ice?”
“Let’s use it! It’s just a recipe. If we can earn money with it, we naturally shouldn’t pass up on it. We have to build our fief now, but we lack money and manpower. We can use this to earn a sum of money, so we’ll have enough money to do other activities in the future, such as culinary competitions!” Li Xiaoran thought for a mont and said, “In the past, we were afraid of being targeted. Now, there’s nothing to be afraid of. No matter what we do, people will treat us as thorns, so we might as well empower ourselves quickly!”
With that, Li Xiaoran took out the training manual she had completed previously and handed it to Luo Cheng.
“Here are so thods to train soldiers. Even ordinary people without internal strength will be very powerful if they are trained in such a way. Those with internal strength will be trained according to the training of the special forces and beco a sharp knife in our hands. We will take our enemies by surprise!”
As Luo Cheng listened, he flipped open the training manual in his hand.
Upon looking, Luo Cheng was shocked.
Luo Cheng asked in disbelief, “Xiaoran, are you sure the training will be as effective as your manual says?”
Li Xiaoran said with a smile, “Husband, since you have so candidates, try it! In a month, you’ll see the results! At that ti, you can decide if you want to implent it according to my military training manual!”
After Luo Cheng thought for a mont, he decided to transfer so of his secret guards to train as special forces.
It was a good opportunity to see if these boys, who had not improved for a long ti, could beco stronger.
Of course, these things would have to wait until tomorrow. Today, he would bring Li Xiaoran to see if the twelve people he had selected could be used.
Li Xiaoran decided to disguise herself as a man and mix in with the crowd.
If they wanted to see if these people could be used, just watching wouldn’t allow them to see their motive.
Blending in with this group would allow her to get a better grasp of the personalities of many people.
Just like that, Li Xiaoran changed her clothes and followed Luo Cheng to the farmstead.
As soon as she entered the farmstead, Li Xiaoran looked around.
The barren mountain had changed drastically.
Luo Cheng seed to understand what Li Xiaoran wanted to know and introduced as he walked, “The farmstead has been divided into several pieces. What you see here is a breeding and planting area. The people living in the farmstead live here. There’s still a large area that hasn’t been planned and built, but we have to take it slow!”
Li Xiaoran thought of sothing and asked, “Is the farmstead here connected to the manor?”
Luo Cheng recalled and said, “There’s still a distance. There’s a river along the way!”
Li Xiaoran was enlightened and rembered the river they had passed by previously.
“So that river separates Hele Village from the place built by the prince’s residence? This is a good thing!”
Luo Cheng said with a smile, “Otherwise, why would I build the mansion over there?!”
As they spoke, they arrived at a thatched house in front.
Luo Cheng pointed at the thatched room not far away and said, “Everyone’s inside. You can go in first!”
Li Xiaoran nodded and pushed the door open to walk in.
The commotion attracted the attention of the group of people in the straw hut.
When they saw another man in very ordinary clothes walk in, they thought that he was there to submit to Luo Cheng, like them, so they quickly looked elsewhere.
A round-faced man went forward and asked with a smile, “Hey, you’re the last to co in. Is Mr. Luo still seeing others?”
Li Xiaoran looked at him and shook her head.
“I don’t know. After asking a few questions, he asked to wait here. I don’t know if there’s anyone behind !”
The round-faced man wasn’t disappointed when he heard that. Instead, he said, “I see! I wonder how long we have to wait!”
An arrogant man in the crowd mocked when he heard the round-faced man’s words, “If you can’t even wait this little amount of ti, you can leave! Do you really think just anyone can co to Mr. Luo’s place?”
“I’m just asking. Who do you think you are? Do you really think you’re Mr. Luo’s subordinate now? With your arrogant attitude, if Mr. Luo sees you, he definitely won’t let you stay!” The round-faced man wasn’t soone to be trifled with.
The arrogant man was also furious and he pointed at the round-faced man’s nose as he said ruthlessly, “What did you say? I’ll teach you a lesson today!”
The proud man could no longer suppress his frustration and attacked.
The round-faced man wasn’t to be trifled with either and he grabbed the arrogant man’s hand.
Li Xiaoran didn’t expect a fight to break out not long after she entered. No one tried to stop the fight. Thus, the two of them started fighting just like that.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran simply avoided them and stood in a corner while watching everything in front of her silently.
A white-robed man, who had been sitting at the side without interacting with anyone, sized up Li Xiaoran and suddenly spoke.
“I really didn’t expect a woman to want to follow Mr.. Luo as well!”
