Chapter 355 Five Wonders Immortal Mountain Farm
Minhou County, Wuqishan Mountain, Yang Family Farm.

After dinner, Yang Quan, the farm manager, came out of the yard, casually broke off a branch, and strolled along the edge of the field while picking his teeth. He scolded the tenant farmers for not applying enough fertilizer and reprimanded the villagers for not tilling the land deeply enough. He was extremely arrogant and proud.

"Dad!" Yang Quan's eldest son, Yang Da, ran over with one shoe on and the other barefoot. "People from the village have come!"

"Were they sent by the master?"

"no!"

"Why are you so panicked!" Yang Quanxin swallowed his anger and scolded, "How many times have I told you? The manor is backed by the Yang family of Suzhou. Even the prefect wouldn't dare to touch us easily!"

Yang Da swallowed hard. "But the people who came were dressed in fine clothes and had an extraordinary presence. They had thirty or fifty attendants, and each of them was riding a tall horse!"

Yang Quanxin's heart skipped a beat. This kind of entourage was even more grand than that of the legitimate sons of the Yang family. He dared not delay any longer and hurried back to the manor.

Before even getting close to the manor, Yang Quan saw his wife, children, maids, and servants kneeling in the manor courtyard. "Please have mercy, sir! We really never received any news of the farm changing hands!"

The farm has changed hands? Yang Quan stumbled, but luckily Yang Da, who was behind him, helped him up, preventing him from falling flat on his face.

"Did I hear that right?" Yang Quan gripped his son's arm tightly, his eyes full of hope. "The farm has changed hands? Who has the ability to snatch food from the Yang family's mouth?"

Yang Da's arm was gripped so tightly it hurt, but he didn't dare pull his hand away. With a mournful face, he said, "My son heard it too."

"That's your mother talking nonsense!" Yang Quan shoved his son away. "This woman dares to say such outrageous things! I'll beat her to death!"

Yang Quan rolled up his sleeves and rushed into the manor.

"Who goes there?" Wu Yi'er stopped the man.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass on Yang Family Farm?" Yang Quan took a step back in fear, his voice stern but his tone weak. "Let me tell you, the owner of the farm is the Yang family of Suzhou, the head of the four great families in Jiangnan. I am the steward of the Yang family!"

Seeing Wu Yi'er's fearless expression, Yang Quan had no choice but to try and smooth things over, saying, "Considering you were unaware of the situation, I'll let you off this time. Leave Yang's Farm immediately, otherwise..."

Wu Yi crossed his arms and asked, "Otherwise what?"

"Otherwise, I will report you to the authorities and have you all thrown in jail!"

"Oh, I'm so scared!" Wu Yier patted his chest dramatically. "Do you know where the prefect's office is? Do you need me to take you there?"

Yang Quan's heart pounded. He knew he had met a tough opponent. Neither the government nor the Yang family's reputation could intimidate him. He raised his voice, "You've got guts! Dare to state your names?"

Wu Yi'er turned his head away disdainfully, "You think you're worthy of knowing my daughter's identity?"

Yang Quan was used to acting arrogantly and domineeringly on the estate. After being so humiliated by Wu Yi'er, he immediately lost control of his anger and raised his hand to strike Wu Yi'er.

Wu Yi'er easily grasped Yang Quan's outstretched fist, and with a slight twist, Yang Quan let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Tang Zhao glanced at Wu Bingsan, who understood and walked to the manor entrance. "Stop playing around, the young lady wants to see him."

Wu Yi'er grabbed Yang Quan with his right hand and Yang Da, who was trying to run away, with his left hand, and threw him into the yard. The two of them instantly rolled around in a ball with the people kneeling in the yard.

Upon seeing her husband, Yang Quan's family cried even louder, "Husband, the farm has changed hands, the owner doesn't want us anymore!"

Yang Quan felt as if his blood had frozen. As a servant born into the Yang family, with his parents being capable servants, he naturally knew more inside information than ordinary servants.

The Five Wonders Immortal Mountain was originally the family property of a tea merchant in Minzhou. Later, Old Master Yang took a liking to it and used various means to seize it. Then, feeling that it was too small, he spent money to buy the surrounding mountains and forests and built this farm.

Previously, Grandpa Yang would come to the farm to stay for a few days every few months, but in recent years, as he has gotten older, he has come less often.

Yang Quan knew exactly what kind of person Old Master Yang was; once something was in his pocket, no one could get it back!
"Nonsense!" Yang Quan raised his hand and slapped Yang Quan's family member hard across the face.

The Yang family was stunned by the slap.

Tang Zhao frowned slightly.

Wu Yi'er stopped Yang Quan from continuing to hit someone, saying, "If you dare to move again, I'll break your arm!"

Yang Quan dared not hit him again. He lowered his head and dared not look at Tang Zhao. He asked in a trembling voice, "May I ask if you have come to the wrong place? This is the farm of the Yang family in Suzhou. The Yang family is a large and wealthy family and would not easily sell off its property."

“Your grandfather has already gifted this farm to our young lady,” Wu Bingsan said. “Not only this farm, but all the land owned by the Yang family in Minzhou now belongs to the young lady.”

"Impossible, impossible!" Yang Quan collapsed to the ground. For the Yang family to offer up all their land in Minzhou, how noble must this person be?

Yang Quan's eyes widened suddenly. Could it be... that one?

“Miss, Master,” Zhaohui came in to report, “all the farmers and tenants on the estate have been brought here.”

Tang Zhao: "Bring him in!"

Chaohui accepted the order and left. Soon after, a large group of people were brought into the courtyard, filling it to capacity.

The farmers and tenants were suddenly summoned, thinking that Yang Quan had come up with some new way to torment them again. But as soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw the once arrogant manager and his family kneeling on the ground, their faces pale. They immediately felt much better.

An elderly man, well past seventy, leaning on a cane, asked shakily, "May I ask what brings you here, esteemed sir?"

Spring Breeze stepped forward and said, “I have summoned you here today to tell you three things.”

"The first thing is that the Yang family has already gifted the farm to my daughter. From now on, my daughter will be the new owner of the farm."

The farmers had indifferent expressions. No matter who their masters were, they were all just working for others, and there was no difference between them.

Even if this new master is bad and stingy, he can't compare to the Yang family, so they accepted him well.

"Secondly, every country has its laws, and every village has its rules. Anyone who violates the village rules will be severely punished!" Chunfeng's gaze swept over the farmers and tenants present. "If anyone dares to commit such a heinous crime as taking someone's life, they will be sent directly to the government for punishment!"

"Third, when working on the estate, being clever and hardworking is secondary; the most important thing is loyalty. If you have loyalty, even if you are lazy and stupid, your master will give you a chance to correct your mistakes. But if anyone dares to do something disloyal and ungrateful, they will be killed on the spot!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Yier, Zhao Hui, and the others all drew their long swords from their waists.

Looking at the sharp blade, the timid farmer's legs went weak, and he would have fallen to the ground long ago if the crowd hadn't been so dense.

"Now, I'm giving you a chance to examine yourselves and each other. If you've been wronged or humiliated before, just tell me, and your master will take care of it for you!"
