Farming with A Business Game

Unexpected Victory

This smell is so fragrant that it almost makes people dizzy.

　　Jiang Chuchu couldn't help but sigh that the wisdom of the ancients was truly unimaginable.

　　"The person who made this dish is really good. Reward." She thought for a while and said, "One piece of silk and five taels of silver. For the other participants, their monthly salary will be doubled this month."

　　Generally speaking, servants were not qualified to wear silk. Only the nobles from aristocratic families could afford silk. Even ordinary small landlords could not afford it.

　　Yiyun was very happy for that person. She was not a petty and jealous person. We were all servants, and the most important thing was that everyone was doing well.

　　Jiang Chuchu, who had no appetite, ate all the plain noodles and even ate half a plate of golden shrimp balls...

　　Gu Jingyu rode on a tall horse, looking numbly at the surrendering Tartars in front of him, with strong soldiers following behind him.

　　The Tartars, who were too hungry to resist, looked up secretly, feeling very envious.

　　At first glance, they are people who can afford to eat enough.

　　Looking at our side... everyone is so hungry that they don't even have the strength to raise their weapons.

　　Behind them was the tent of the Tatar leader.

　　Gu Jingyu had practiced martial arts for nearly twenty years, but he had never imagined that he would be able to defeat the Tartars' lair in one fell swoop.

　　I never thought that the last stop would be so funny.

　　He tried to control his expression and said coldly: "Where is your leader?"

　　"Two days ago, he was killed by a wild beast."

　　The Tatar soldiers lowered their heads because the Gu family army had been defending and their people could not grab food at all. This year's winter was particularly long and they had already run out of food, first the civilians, then the soldiers. Two days ago, their leader was so hungry that he led his people to the mountains and forests, but encountered an equally hungry tiger and was bitten to death.

　　When they got the news and went to rescue, they only dragged back half of the leader's body.

　　This way of death... Gu Jingyu was filled with disbelief until the captives dragged the body over and he saw the face of the corpse with his own eyes before he had to believe it.

　　This is too dreamy...

　　Gu Jingyu was in turmoil inside, but he showed no sign of it on his face. The man's stomach and legs had been eaten, so there was no possibility of him surviving.

　　"Someone was sent to bury him."

　　His handsome face was as cold as ice, and he asked, "Where's Yale?"

　　Yale is the son of the Tartar leader, but he is nowhere to be seen at the moment.

　　"I don't know. The leader asked Lord Yale to leave with a group of people five months ago. As for where they went, we don't know either."

　　The man being questioned had already been frightened out of his wits. The feelings of fear and hunger tormented him all the time. Therefore, he answered whatever Gu Jingyu asked.

　　To prevent any unusual behavior, Gu Jingyu had his men capture a few Tartars who were kneeling in the distance and interrogate them separately.

　　The man had been hungry for too long and had no strength. He spoke in a very low voice and the people behind him could not hear the conversation at all.
