Oh no! Seven kids at the start, all yellow and skinny.

Chapter 114 Energy Fluctuations

“I’ll provide the money, but I need land.” Yunyi took out the blueprints she had drawn earlier. “The school I want to build is very large. In addition to classrooms, it also needs accommodation and dining facilities, as well as places for sports training such as riding and archery. In short, it needs a lot of land.”

"That's no problem, there's plenty of land in the village." The village chief waved his hand after looking around. "Just the plot of land behind your house, that's all. It's just the school fees..."

“Before, when we invited the village children to attend classes, we said we would pay whatever they could afford, or they could exchange their labor for tuition. But there was no set amount, which made many people hesitant. So now that we have a school, I will set a fixed tuition amount for each year. Everyone pays the same amount, but those who don’t have money can exchange their labor or goods for tuition. What do you think?” Yunyi shared her thoughts.

"Good." The village chief slapped his thigh and nodded. "Let's do it this way. That way, those who really want to study but don't have the money won't be left without a chance." If a school can really be established in this village, it will be a great thing, a great deed that will benefit future generations.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Uncle Village Chief. I'll go back and draw up the blueprints for the school first, and then we'll start construction at an auspicious time."

"Sure, but the autumn harvest is coming soon. But don't worry, it definitely won't affect the progress. Everyone can work at night."

"Okay, Uncle Village Chief will take care of the arrangements." Yunyi nodded, and then went to Doctor Wang's house after leaving the village chief's house.

He Guang was sent here to recuperate.

"Master."

"Just come back."

"How is that person?"

"He'll be fine after a few days of rest." Wang Tianshun glanced at Yun Yi. "However, he just took his medicine, so it might take him an hour or two to wake up."

"It's nothing, I just came to check on him." Yunyi glanced at the unconscious person inside the room from outside the door, and then went over to help Wang Tianshun organize the medicinal herbs.

“I heard him say when he was awake that you were able to get people out of the Marquis of Zhenbei, that’s quite impressive.”

"What can I do? He's my little brother." Yun Yi smiled smugly. "Besides, I also bought a five-courtyard mansion in the prefectural city and established a gang in Black City..."

Wang Tianshun's lips twitched: "Girl, what are you... trying to..." He pointed to the sky as he spoke.

“Master, I didn’t think about anything. I just encountered some trouble when I got there, and then I gradually came across all these things. Since I’ve come across them, I might as well do it.” Yunyi shrugged. “Besides, it’s always good to have more power. At least we can protect ourselves in the future.”

As for whether it will rebel against Heaven, that depends on whether Heaven is a good Heaven. If it is not, what difference does it make if it rebels?

"You said before that you were from the Marquis's residence, are you going back?"

Yunyi frowned: "I am indeed the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Chengen's mansion, but my father, the Marquis, favored his concubine over his wife. After driving my mother to her death, he made the concubine his legal wife. However, they coveted my marriage, so they bribed my personal maid to drug me and sell me to a slave trader during the Shangsi Festival outing..."

Wang Tianshun sighed, "But a girl who has survived such a calamity is bound to have good fortune in the future."

Yunyi smiled. The original owner of this body was long dead, but she couldn't say that, so she nodded: "Yes, I'm still alive, but I will definitely go back to avenge this."

Given the nature of that cheapskate father, Fang Tang, now that the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince are vying for power, he will definitely not put all his eggs in one basket with Fang Yunduo. He will definitely separate them. However, since he only has one daughter, she can only marry one person. Therefore, as long as he knows that his eldest daughter is still alive, he will definitely take her back.

In that case, the two daughters could marry the two princes, and whoever succeeds in the future, he will be the emperor's father-in-law.

However, with Han Lian'er around, Fang Yunduo would probably only be able to be a concubine.

As for when she can go back, that depends on when Han Lian'er reveals that she saw her.

That afternoon, the village chief led his men to fence off a whole plot of land behind the house for her. It was nearly sixteen acres in size, but Yunyi was paid fifteen acres. The price was based on the price of wasteland, and she was paid a total of ten taels of silver.

Yunyi's initial budget was around ten acres, enough to build houses and a small playground. Now, she can even build a horse racing track, where the horses she brought back will finally have a purpose.

Now, all those horses are being kept in the mountains by Sixteen and his monkey troop.

"Yunyi, I'll go to town right now to get the deed done. Your carriage..."

"Uncle Quan, take Uncle Village Chief to town."

Old Quan hurriedly went back, fetched a horse-drawn carriage, and led the village chief away in a long, hurried ride.

"Brother Gu, you understand what I'm going to do, right?" Yun Yi turned to look at Gu Chengrui.

Gu Chengrui nodded.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you." Yunyi handed him the blueprints. "I can't stay in the village forever, so you can hand over the rest of the work to Uncle Village Chief."

Gu Chengrui glanced at the blueprints and then nodded: "Okay, I will definitely do it well."

"Yes." Yunyi nodded. "My family is just a small business, we can't afford to support idle people, understand?"

When they brought the person out of the quarry, they also took the person's criminal record. Since the person was a criminal, he was registered with the government. If he was to be taken away, the criminal record could only be revoked and changed to something else, such as military or slave status.

Gu Chengrui is now a slave, Yunyi's private slave, and he naturally knows this.

Yunyi handed over the task, and then she stayed at home compiling a multiplication table. She didn't plan to teach Arabic numerals for the time being, but she could ask everyone to memorize the multiplication table so that even if they didn't use Arabic numerals, they could still do math.

As I was writing, a buzzing sound suddenly came to my mind, followed by a familiar feeling, but that feeling vanished instantly.

【sixteen.】

"Boss." Sixteen rushed in from outside quickly. "You felt it, didn't you?"

Yes, your energy...

[It's recovering, but it feels so slow, like a loose connection. It seemed to connect for a moment, but then disconnected again.]

Yunyi breathed a sigh of relief; all her excitement had been for nothing.

[But boss, do you know where I first detected energy fluctuations?]

"I don't know." Yunyi continued writing with her head down.

It's on White Tiger Mountain.

What are you doing at White Tiger Mountain? There are monkeys there, are you going to steal their territory?

No, that day I just suddenly felt like going to take a look, so I went, and then I sensed energy fluctuations. I reasonably suspect that there are minerals beneath White Tiger Mountain.

Yunyi: ...
