Chapter 120 Technology

"Uncle, you're finally back! You've been gone for so long!"

Yun Qingjin rushed to the door and saw the convoy entering the warehouse's backyard in an orderly fashion, with the leaders looking travel-worn.

Everyone looked somewhat disheveled.

The leader, Yun Ruihe, was unshaven and unkempt, but his eyes still held a hint of smugness.

"Qingqing? Sister? What brings you here?"

Yun Ruihe was surprised and delighted to see his older sister, who hadn't expected her to arrive.

"Oh dear, I was thinking of going home today to tidy up and then coming to see you tomorrow, but who knew you'd come back today! Look at me, I've really embarrassed myself in front of you girls."

"It's okay, Uncle is handsome no matter what he looks like!"

Yun Qingjin's lips were smeared with honey as she promptly offered praise.

"Sister, wait for me. Let me pack up. You all go back to the manor first, and I'll come find you when I'm done."

The siblings exchanged a single glance, and everything they wanted to say was conveyed through that glance.

"Alright, I'll take Qingqing back first. You can go after you've settled the brothers in. We'll throw a welcome-back banquet for them tomorrow."

The mother and daughter had their wish fulfilled and went home hand in hand.

But Yun Yuke didn't relax just because she saw her younger brother. Her brother was now out doing business, and whatever he did or how he managed things was entirely up to him.

In other words, Yunrui doesn't have much business pressure. At this stage, he goes out to do business more to experience the local customs and culture, and he deals in local specialties.

Was his sudden return a coincidence or something else?

Yun Ruihe didn't linger for long, and arrived at the Yun residence an hour later.

After the family had a simple meal, the siblings discussed matters in Yun Yuke's study.

"Sister, is there any news from the city? Some unusual things suddenly appeared outside the city today." Although Yun Ruihe was anxious, she still asked first.

"You're talking about the flying car, right? It's all over the city. You just got back, did you see it outside the city?"

Yun Rui nodded and briefly recounted his entire trip.

This time, Yun Ruihe went to the south, to places he had never been before. He basically toured all of them.

“The south is not peaceful, especially near Wuluo. The areas where the Wuluo and Changhong people live together are mostly quite chaotic,” Yun Ruihe said first.

"Oh? The situation over there is so bad, what about your business?"

"Sigh, this time it was a bit unlucky. We didn't sell it for a high price, but we managed to break even. And none of the brothers got hurt. That's good. Sister, you don't know, ever since the young emperor came to power, Uro has been in turmoil. Policies can't be implemented, and the people are really suffering."

Yun Yuke recalled the news she had heard before and wasn't too surprised. "We've also heard about the civil war in Uro. Do you have any news?"

Yun Yuke briefly relayed all the information she had heard to Yun Ruihe, but unfortunately, Yun Ruihe couldn't understand much of it and shook his head after hearing it.

"I really don't understand this kind of thing. All I see is that the lives of ordinary people are quite pitiful."

"Do you think there's a possibility of a fight breaking out?"

"If you ask me, I think I definitely will," Yun Ruihe said almost without hesitation.

"You don't know, sister, I've inquired about it. The living conditions in the border regions of Uro are quite miserable. Only the people in the capital are doing relatively well. If I were the emperor, I would also take advantage of this situation."

Yun Yuke nodded, "You're right, so those flying cars..."

"I guess they're here to intimidate us with force."

“Go straight to the city of Uro and give the people of Uro a big scare.”

Although the siblings said different things, they thought about the same thing.

"It seems you understand what I'm talking about, sister." Yun Rui smiled, picked up the tea in front of her, and took a sip.

"That flying car...did you see it when you went into town today?"

"I saw it. It flew over from the horizon and landed directly in the northeast. I remember there's a mountain spring village in the northeast, so it looks like it's near that village."

"These technologies are quite advanced, aren't they? Have you seen anything similar while you were traveling? You know what I'm asking." Yun Yuke looked at her intently, her eyes serious.

Yun Ruihe put down her teacup. "Sister, I know what you're saying. You doubt that this technology is from this era, right?"

Yun Yuke didn't speak, but her expression said it all.

"Although I have some doubts, I don't want to make assumptions if I have to say anything. I only took a look from afar, so it's hard to say whether it is or not... But even if it is, it's been almost a hundred years. It's not a problem for them to develop some strange things, right? The people of this world can develop on their own, so there's nothing wrong with that, right?"

Yun Ruihe's thinking on this matter was rather simple: as long as it wasn't too ostentatious, development should proceed as it should. If it could be promoted and ordinary people could live better lives, that would naturally be a good thing.

Yun Yuke thought about it and realized that her younger brother was right.

“I was being narrow-minded… You’re right, so much time has passed, it’s time to change.”

"So, sister, you don't need to overthink it! We've been hiding among the crowd for so many years, and many people don't even know where we are. It's not necessarily their doing."

"I've inquired about it; it was done by that Grand Preceptor Fan in the imperial court."

Yun Yuke told her younger brother what she had heard.

"If you really mean it... then your surname is Fan, which means you're even less one of us? We don't have anyone with the surname Fan among our people... Am I mistaken?"

Yun Rui lowered her head and thought for a moment, "They're not our people. Sister, you're definitely overthinking it. I remember very clearly, there are twenty of us in total, and none of us have any technical skills."

“But we all have those magical artifacts, and if you and I can learn them, so can they.”

The emergence of such technology is quite normal. Yun Yuke felt it was indeed acceptable.

But who exactly is this Master Fan? Where did he get all these skills from?

Compared to the gossipy atmosphere in Changgan City, Zhu Ling's side was not so calm.

After parting ways with Xing Xiaoyu in the morning, Zhu Ling quickly found the location of the flying car that had landed.

The flying car landed near Shanquan Village, northeast of Changgan City. It deliberately chose a sparsely populated area for its landing.

Ground troops arrived relatively quickly, cleared the area, and reassured the surrounding residents.

Zhu Ling, the prefect of Changgan, arrived at a very opportune time.

"I am Zhu Ling, the newly appointed prefect of Changgan. I am looking for your generals, the air convoy, and the ground troops. May I ask if you have received an imperial order for this expedition?"

The soldiers on duty outside dared not underestimate Zhu Ling. Everyone knew that a female scholar who had passed the imperial examination had been appointed as the new prefect of Changgan Town.

Although she wasn't wearing official robes this time, who would dare to impersonate her?

Sure enough, Zhu Ling was soon invited into the residence.

Inside the general's tent, the sand table in front of them showed the approximate terrain of the border area between Wuluo and Cangnan.

"Prefect Zhu, it's been a long time."

"You are... Lord Xie, the Marquis of Changxing?"
