Jiang Yang transferred the two previous mummies and replaced them with two honest and diligent crew members, instructing them not to abuse the handsome merman.

This job was much better than rowing oars. This ocean-going ship was frighteningly large, and it took dozens of people to swing a single oar with all their might, so tiring that their hands almost broke off. It was not a good job. It was better to tame the merman. If successful, one might even get a good position.

Jiang Yang said this merman didn’t like rough treatment. It was easy to say, wasn’t it just coaxing! For the sake of future work, the two new crew members were all thinking of ways to build a good relationship with the merman.

After handling that, Jiang Yang returned to her room, “How long until we reach the Nalong Nation?”

Lan Qian said, “Second Miss, the waves have been strong these past few days and the ship is progressing slowly. It looks like it will take another half month to arrive.”

Half a month… Jiang Yang sprawled on the soft couch, so bored.

Lan Qian knelt beside the couch with a grin and said, “If Second Miss finds it boring, why don’t we go fishing at the rear of the ship?”

“Not interested.” Jiang Yang rolled over. She had already tried sea fishing when she first boarded the ship. At first she found it novel, but after fishing a few times, it wasn’t that interesting anymore.

Moreover, the sun at sea was vicious. Without sunscreen, the intense ultraviolet rays turned her face bright red and peeling in just a day. It was suffering.

She had thought that transmigrating into a matriarchal nation with such a noble identity, she should have come to enjoy good fortune.

But before she could be happy for long, she discovered there was no such luck. Great clans had no concept of deep affection between siblings. The eternal theme was the struggle for power and profit.

It was still alright between women, at least open and aboveboard. But the infighting between men was miserable.

Her legitimate and illegitimate brothers, in order to fight for a good wife, fought so disgracefully, with incidents like falling into water, disfigurement, ruining vocal cords. It was like the TV dramas Legend of Zhen Huan, Palace, War and Beauty. Her daily amusement at home was watching these men compete.

As for her and Jiang Qingzhou… Although they were born of the same father, Jiang Qingzhou had deep thoughts and grasped military power. If she tried to memorize a few poems from Li Bai and Du Fu like other transmigrated women to gain the title of a talented woman and overshadow the eldest legitimate daughter, she probably wouldn’t live to adulthood, at least not with all four limbs intact.

So over the years, she simply played it cool. Study? Study my ass! The brothel was her eternal home.

Finally, she gained the title of a notorious prodigal. Her elder sister was no longer wary of her, and there was a bit of sisterly warmth. But she was still too stupid and naive. Even if she played it cool, with one word from that bastard emperor, she still had to bitterly work to make money.

She understood now that even if she transmigrated, a working person was still a working person.

But this time, the job was the kind where failure meant beheading. The tears of a corporate slave flowed down.

Just then, the Angry Bird flew back. Who knows if it had experienced a societal beating or what, but the Angry Bird’s feathers were all puffed up. The Angry Bird had become an Exploding Bird.

Jiang Yang habitually picked it up by its claws and dangled it, shaking it, “Where did you go crazy?”

The Angry Bird crazily cursed, flapping its wings so hard they almost fell off.
