Looking at Gan Xingyan who was getting along well with Shen Huanyan and others, Shen Yuelan had a worried look on her face. She didn't know more details about the Franc organization, so she had no way of judging whether this organization was in line with her values.
If the enchantress beside him was bewitched by the other party, just like Gan Xingyan, and chose to leave him and join the organization, then how should he deal with it?
In short, Gan Xingyan's appearance was quite abrupt, which completely disrupted Shen Yuelan's subsequent deployment. However, her appearance was not all bad.
Shen Yuelan did not plan to contract Suyi and Suxin. If she could get more information about the Franc organization, it would be a good idea to let the two sisters go out and try their luck.
So when everyone was having a bonfire dinner, Shen Yuelan asked Gan Xingyan about this matter.
[Sister Xingyan, what exactly does the Franc Organization do? Are there any admission requirements? ]
[Are there any admission requirements? I didn't expect you to be interested in us, but I don't recommend you and your friends to come here. ]
Shen Yuelan's question surprised Gan Xingyan for a moment, but her response also exceeded Shen Yuelan's expectations. She thought that Gan Xingyan's banquet welcomed newcomers.
[Why? Isn't it a good thing that someone is willing to join? ]
[Yes, for a normal organization, it is naturally a good thing to have a constant supply of fresh blood, but the problem is that the Franc Organization is not a very normal organization. ]
[I don’t know if Gan Yuelong has ever told you about things outside the inner world, so I’ll start from the inner world.]
[As we all know, the inner world is made up of countless outer worlds. In our inner world, the Inner World Administration and its subordinate bureaus are above all the outer worlds. Outside our inner world, there are many other similar inner worlds.]
[The more famous ones include the Void Pirates who wander in the void and have no fixed place to live, the Kingdom of Enchantresses established by wild Enchantresses, and the organization established by the abandoned Silver Coin Enchantresses - Franc, etc. 】
[There are many such forces, and their forms of existence are not the same. There are republics, slave systems, dynasties, and empires.]
[The Battle of Bianliang some time ago was an invasion of the inner world by a small dynasty called Yue. I heard that you lost a lot of friends and subordinates in that war? ]
Shen Yuelan curled her lips when she heard this. Although Gan Xingyan was telling the truth, it was not polite to say some things in front of the person involved. Fortunately, the other party quickly realized this after confirming certain information.
[Sorry. What I meant is that the Franc Organization will have an action against the Yue Dynasty later. If you are interested, we may be able to cooperate.]
[Although I don't want to admit it, your proposal is indeed very tempting, so can I consider this as an invitation from the Franc Organization? ]
[Invite? No, no, no, I'm just discussing the matter. The Franc Organization has a threshold for recruiting new members. Only Silver Coin Monsters and those who have been abandoned will not be accepted. ]
[Is there a racial restriction? But Sister Yuelong is not a demon, so why can she join? ]
[Well, although the previous owner was not a silver coin enchantress, the several enchantresses around her were silver coin enchantresses, and she was abandoned by her enchantresses several times, so she barely met the minimum threshold for joining the club. ]
[And the enchantresses around you seem to be all copper-coin enchantresses, and they are all very loyal. This is not acceptable. ]
Shen Yuelan felt a little embarrassed after being rejected, but also a little happy. She straightened her back proudly and was about to say something, but when she realized that this was a bit rude, she curled up again.
She turned the topic back to the affairs of the Yue Dynasty. After all, Gan Xingyan's proposal just now was indeed very tempting, and she really wanted to teach those bastards of the Yue Dynasty a lesson.
Although Shen Yuelan knew clearly that revenge was not a meaningful act and would not bring Lu Lingjia and others back to life, Shen Yuelan just wanted to do it. Even if she did it to the end, it would only vent her anger and would not have any meaning.
But do things have to be meaningful? When life is short, perhaps we should do more meaningful things, but Shen Yuelan's life is endless. To put it bluntly, she has plenty of time to waste and take revenge!
Revenge cannot be a goal in life, but it can be a spice of life.
After learning of Shen Yuelan's idea, Shen Huanyan chose to support her without hesitation. Shen Sushang even put on armor and waited for Shen Yuelan's order before rushing into the foreign land to avenge their colleagues who died in the battle!
Although Shen Suchang and others were very efficient, Shen Yuelan herself could not be blinded by hatred. Not to mention that her mission had not been completed yet, even the person who proposed this suggestion did not take any action at this time.
[Okay, so how do you plan to cooperate with me? Do you choose a surface world and rush in directly, or do you play some conspiracy and tricks and stage a coup to seize power?]
[Haha, this matter is not urgent. We are still in the preparation stage. We will notify you when everything is ready. I hope Major General Shen will come and show us around.]
[Okay, okay, then I will wait for good news. ]
Shen Yuelan and Gan Xingyan's conversation was going well for both host and guest, but Gan Yuelong felt uncomfortable. When she saw that Shen Yuelan didn't reply, she knew that something bad was going to happen.
Although it was not a big deal for these two girls to squat in the same toilet to poop, Gan Yuelong was worried that Gan Xingyan would cause trouble.
It would be fine if that little bastard didn't target me, but once he started to cause trouble for me, with Shen Yuelan by her side, I would have no choice but to jump in. I would rather go to the tiger mountain even though I know there is a tiger there.
[Alas, after all, I spent a lot of effort to raise him. No matter if he suits my taste or not, he is still my child. I should go meet him in a few days.]
Chapter 178: Hot and Cold
[Haha, I'm so happy that you finally came to see me, Master.]
[Hmph, stop talking nonsense. When have I not followed your wishes? Just tell me what you want to say. Are you short of money, or have you failed to complete the mission? ]
[Hey! Master, how can you think of me like this? In your eyes, have I accomplished nothing? ]
[Isn't it? I remember the last time you came to me, it was because your business failed and you were in debt. The time before that, it was because you failed in your mission and asked me for help. The time before that, it was because you failed in your mission and asked me for help.]
[Stop, stop! I know what you want to say.]
Gan Xingyan quickly interrupted Gan Yuelong's recollections. She didn't want the image of a senior that she had worked so hard to build up in front of her juniors to be ruined by Gan Yuelong's words.
[Ahem, Master, those are all things of the past. We can just talk about it in private. There is no need to bring it up in public. There are other people here. Please give me some face.]
Gan Xingyan's last words seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth with great difficulty.
Seeing that his purpose of criticizing Gan Xingyan had been achieved, Gan Yuelong stopped exposing Gan Xingyan's shortcomings and instead began to show concern for him, acting like an old father who hadn't seen his daughter for decades.
The speed of the reversal caught Gan Xingyan off guard, let alone Shen Yuelan and others who were hiding outside the window.
[Hiss, Alan, didn't they say that their relationship was bad? Why doesn't it seem like that now? ]
Shen Sushang, who was very gossipy, started gossiping about the relationship between the two with Shen Yuelan, who was also squatting outside.
[Oh, you don't understand, right? Let me tell you, it's not wrong to say that they have a good relationship, and it's even more correct to say that they have a bad relationship.]
[Huh? How can this be true? A good relationship is good, a bad relationship is bad, how can it be both good and bad? ]
[If you put Gan Yuelong into the role of the father and Gan Xingyan into the role of the daughter, you will understand their relationship. ]
[Father? Daughter? Oh, I think I understand.]
Shen Yuelan told Shen Sushang that even though the two of them were getting along very well now, it wouldn't be long before Gan Yuelong would start to dislike Gan Xingyan again.
Don’t ask Shen Yuelan how she knew this. She has to go through this every year when she goes home for vacation during university holidays.
Although Shen Suchang, an orphan, cannot empathize with Shen Yuelan, he can more or less understand what Shen Yuelan wants to express. It is nothing more than the unspoken affection between father and son, which Shen Suchang has witnessed a lot in the outside world.
[So, since you didn't come back to ask me for money or help, then why did you come back? You didn't come back to spend the holidays with me, did you? What holiday is so important that it would make a busy person like you come back to see me?]
Just as the two were gossiping, the atmosphere in the room changed again, and the topic suddenly became a little dangerous. It was unknown what Gan Xingyan said that annoyed Gan Yuelong and made him become aggressive.
[You are always like this. We were chatting happily, but suddenly your attitude changed, as if someone was watching you. Apart from the two of us, there is only Yue Lan's family on the entire island. What is there to be afraid of?]
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Shen Yuelan, who was awakened by Gan Xingyan's words, slightly shifted her perspective and suddenly found something wrong in the room. However, everyone present knew nothing about it, and only she, who had special eyes, saw something.
No, Gan Yuelong might have known about this earlier than anyone else, otherwise why would she be so hot and cold towards Gan Xingyan?
It seems that someone has indeed sneaked in, so who could it be? Yin Ji? But aren't Yin Ji and Gan Xingyan on good terms? Why is he hiding it from her and acting in front of her?
Because nothing was clear at all, Shen Yuelan didn't dare to act rashly for the moment and could only pretend that she didn't see anything, but there was a tendency for a quarrel to break out in the cabin.
[You never listen to me carefully. It's always like this. I come here with high expectations, but always come back disappointed. Gan Yuelong! What will it take for you to be satisfied? Do you have to wait for me to die to be happy?]
Gan Xingyan was not as calm and composed as she was when facing Shen Yuelan and others. Words that seemed quite hurtful to Shen Yuelan kept pouring out of her mouth, making Gan Yuelong so angry that he slapped Gan Xingyan on the spot.
When things developed to this point, Shen Yuelan no longer had the mood to watch any further. She touched her nose and led everyone out of the wooden house.
On the beach, everyone was holding their phones in the group chat, expressing their opinions on the matter.
[If you ask me, Gan Yuelong is not a qualified "parent". Sister Xingyan has been wronged so much, but she still refuses to give in. How can she be someone's master like that? ]--Shen Sushang
[You can't say that. My master treats me well. Even if I do something wrong, he never gets angry with me.] - Wanchuan
[Maybe it’s because of their age difference. Gan Yuelong was only a few thousand years old when he raised Gan Xingyan, but he was already 100,000 years old when he raised you. Their mentality must be different. ]--Shen Yuelan
[But Yuelan, you are not that old, are you? I didn't see any problems when you were raising Huanyan? ] -- Su Yi
[There is really no problem. The meal was cooked by Huanyan, the house was cleaned by Huanyan, the clothes were washed by Huanyan, and the official documents were approved by Huanyan...] - Shen Sushang
[Uh...] - Plain Clothes
[I am happy to! ]--Shen Huanyan
【Huanyan is the best!!】--Shen Yuelan
【Hey! 】--Shen Sushang
【Eh! !】--Wanchuan
【Eh!!!】--Su Yi
【Eh!!!】--Su Xin
Shen Yuelan did not tell anyone about her discovery. How could someone who could hide it from everyone present be a capable person?
It is not necessarily a good thing to let these beauties under his command know too much. As long as that person does not come to provoke her, Shen Yuelan is too lazy to cause trouble for him.
The two people in the house soon parted unhappily. Gan Xingyan left again, and Gan Yuelong, after a short rest, planned to return to Zhao State to continue searching for Yin Ji's whereabouts.
After confirming that the guy hiding in the dark had disappeared, Shen Yuelan secretly found Gan Yuelong to inquire about the details of the matter.
But before she could say anything, Gan Yuelong pushed her out the door and told her to stay where she was. This made Shen Yuelan puzzled. What was going on with Gan Yuelong? Who was she guarding against? Should she continue to wade into this muddy water?
The cumulonimbus clouds in the distance of the island became increasingly gloomy. Shen Yuelan felt that it was not suitable to stay here for long. But if she left here, where should she go to settle down? The place where she was was where the storm was.
On the second day after Gan Xingyan left, Gan Yuelong left directly after saying goodbye to Shen Yuelan. Before leaving, she secretly slipped a note made of special material to Shen Yuelan, asking her to read it after three days.
Although Shen Yuelan didn't quite understand the significance of this action, she still followed Gan Yuelong's request and waited for three days before opening the mysterious note.
Chapter 179: Bankruptcy
When Shen Yuelan saw the words on the note clearly, she was almost laughed out of anger by Gan Yuelong. The note clearly read "This is adult business, children, don't interfere" in nine big characters.
Shen Yuelan didn't understand that Gan Yuelong thought she was meddling in other people's business. She folded the note speechlessly, turned around and left the cabin without any reluctance.
Time flies. Shen Yuelan and others have been living on the island for three years. During these three years, Gan Yuelong has been searching for Yin Ji to no avail.
If they couldn't find the person in a year or two, that would be possible, but with Gan Yuelong's ability, it was a bit ridiculous that they couldn't find any trace of him in three years. Shen Yuelan seriously suspected that this guy was slacking off.
But Shen Yuelan was too lazy to care about her. After all, it was someone else's family affair. If she interfered, she would be accused of "children should stay out of their own business."
However, Shen Yuelan really wanted to move to another place. Although the island was nice, she felt a little bored after living there for a long time. It just so happened that the Qin State's Shu County had just changed its prefect two years ago, and the new prefect was the famous Prefect Li Bing.
At this moment, he is leading tens of thousands of workers to build the Dujiangyan Irrigation System, a famous water conservancy project. Shen Yuelan plans to go to Yan State first to try his luck and see if he can catch a target, and also go and see how Alua is doing.
Then we passed through the Three Jins and entered Qin, and went to the Chengdu Plain, which was about to become the "Land of Abundance", to see how the Dujiangyan was built.
The reason why Shen Yuelan had to dawdle on the road for a while was that the construction of Dujiangyan was actually only started last year, and it took a total of eighteen years.
If we go there now, we will probably only see Li Bing and his son gesturing back and forth on a map, and won't be able to see anything more. It would be better to wait another two years, then at least we can get a general idea.
This is what Shen Yuelan thought and did. Her group of beauties had no objection to this. After all, they were about to vomit after eating so much seafood recently, and they really wanted to change their taste.
Before leaving the island, Shen Yuelan organized a large-scale fishing activity. How large was it? All 100,000 Qin troops were dispatched, and the small island where Shen Yuelan and others lived was almost completely empty.
However, only about 40,000 people finally went to sea, because most Qin people could not swim, let alone sea fishing. Even for these 40,000 people, Shen Yuelan spent several months teaching them on the spot.
The reason for this sea fishing was because this was the request Su Xuan made to Shen Yuelan before she left the inner world. After a period of market research, Su Xuan found that fish dishes sold very well in the inner world, especially sea fish.
Perhaps because fish appear relatively rarely in people’s daily lives, people in the other world can imagine cows and sheep but cannot imagine the specific images of various fish.
Freshwater fish are better, at least they can be seen in daily life, but marine fish, especially deep-sea fish, are hard to find. It is hard to say whether ordinary people like Shen Yuelan can see one once in their lifetime.
Therefore, this kind of thing sells very well in the other world. Su Xuan saw the business opportunity and wanted to set up a fishery farm. The site was completed before Shen Yuelan left, and now all that was missing was the fish species inside.
When Shen Yuelan first arrived in the Warring States Period, she led a rather displaced life and had no time to take care of this matter. But now she was about to leave Bohai, and it was hard to say whether she would have the chance to come back in the future, so it would be better to get this matter done as soon as possible.
The ships used by the Qin soldiers were built by themselves. They were of the same model as those of the fleet of the alchemist Xu Fu. Shen Yuelan was at a loss for words when she saw the ship. Although it looked big, it was actually just a large fishing boat with only a cabin.
It is hard to imagine how Xu Fu managed to cross the Daoguang River with 3,000 boys and girls on such simple equipment. Now it seems that being the ancestor of a country is not easy, and the boat may capsize at any time.
Although the equipment is a bit simple, there is strength in numbers. A fishing team of 40,000 people working together can still accomplish a lot.
[Report to the master! A herd of 100-meter-long giant beasts has been spotted in the southeast, and they are moving towards us at high speed! Request to evade!! Request to evade!!]
[Avoid bullshit! That's a whale! It's edible! Catch it for me. It was not illegal to hunt whales during the Warring States Period! If you catch it, I'll give you a feast tonight!]
【promise!!】
The Qin soldiers sat in small fishing boats and chased the whales with whaling harpoons that they had modified from spears and had barbs (the forks had a hinge, and the barbs would rise up after the forks pierced the whale meat) and hemp ropes made of jute (used to hold the whales that dived into the water and exhaust their physical strength).
Once the whale was hit by the spear, it would escape with the rope. The Qin soldiers would pull the rope and follow leisurely behind it until the whale surfaced exhausted. They would then kill it with a spear and successfully capture it.
This is the traditional whaling method in ancient times. Although it is very effective, the whales caught are either dead or seriously injured, which does not meet the requirements put forward by Su Xuan. Yes, Su Xuan wants them alive.
At this time, only the three Su Shang sisters could take action. The Qin soldiers were responsible for hunting in the shallow sea area, while the three of them were collecting fish in the deep sea area.
After hearing Shen Yuelan's request, Shen Sushang agreed without hesitation. Humph, just a few small whales, no problem.
Looking at Shen Suchang's confident back, Shen Huanyan scratched her head. She asked Shen Yuelan if she had told Shen Suchang how big the whale was.
[Ha, is there any need to say this? Are there any whales in the coastal waters that are too big? Aren’t there only two types, sperm whales and humpback whales? Thirty tons is the maximum, right?]
[But Sister Sushang and her friends have been in the Kuril Islands recently. It's close to the North Pole and they can catch fin whales there.]
