Transmigrated into a female county magistrate during a famine, leading her country to prosperity

Three feather arrows flew out one after another with the power to pierce through rocks and split silk.

In the eyes of everyone, the three feather arrows were spaced moderately apart, connected front to back and without interfering with each other.

Just as the first arrow pierced the center of the bull's eye, the second arrow followed. Just when everyone thought that the two arrows would touch each other, the second arrow brushed against the first one and was firmly nailed to the straw target, with the arrowhead more than halfway inside.

Under continuous force, the straw target began to shake and the center of the target loosened a little.

Lu Botang was annoyed - he should have brought a new target earlier.

These old targets had been used many times and were no longer as firm as before, which gave Yu Jiusi an opportunity.

Just as I was thinking about it, the buzzing sound of the third feather arrow suddenly rose, and went straight to the loosest part of the straw target. With a "swish" sound, the arrow not only penetrated the hay layer at the center of the bull's eye, but also passed out from behind the target with broken grass stems, and the hay fell down.

The third arrow got stuck on the straw target, at the center of the yellow.

Yu Jiusi breathed a sigh of relief quietly, rubbed his shoulders which were tense due to nervousness, and then grinned and gave Shen Zheng a big smile.

Lin Fanyun stared at the straw target, as if recalling the momentum of the three arrows.

Lu Botang had a sad face, thinking that he had failed to live up to the old general's advice.

Yu Nanshu crossed her arms and raised her head, looking at Cui Jinyin with her chin raised, "You lose."

The brother’s strength, the sister’s honor!

Cui Jinyin came back to her senses. "It's just a headdress. I'm not so poor as to lose! I've donated it!"

But why is Yu Nanshu’s brother so powerful?

The Yongning Marquis’ Mansion…isn’t it the home of a civil official?

"Yu Jiusi hit the 'de' three times in a row, scoring fifteen chips. He is tied for first place with General Lin Fanyun for the time being." Shen Zheng announced.

They both hit the target three times in a row, but it takes more skill to shoot through the bull's eye, but she couldn't bring it up actively, otherwise it would be like she was fighting for Yu Jiusi to win.

"I lost. Brother Yu took first place in this competition." Lin Fanyun withdrew his gaze from the straw target. "Three arrows were shot through the bull's eye. Brother Yu's archery skills are indeed good."

Just when Yu Jiusi was surprised that this person did not compete for the first place today, he heard him say: "But I should be able to do it, but I was too cautious before. Lord Shen, do you want to see it? After the competition is over, I..."

"I'm not the first yet. My sister hasn't tried the bow yet." Yu Nanshu was pushed out by Yu Jiusi.

Yu Nanshu cooperated and said, "General Lin, don't underestimate me. My archery skills were taught by my brother."

Looking back to the past, her archery skills were not so good that she could shoot wherever she pointed without error, but at least she would never miss the target.

The target is so small that anyone can hit the bull's eye. What if that person is her?

Shen Zheng stepped forward to help her adjust the bow.

When she was ready, she spread her legs shoulder-width apart, raised her hands to hold the bow, the river breeze blew her dress, and she raised her chin slightly.

Cui Jinyin was suddenly stunned.

Although I don't want to admit it, Yu Nanshu looks really... awesome and pretty like this.

She looked down at her palms.

What if I were the one holding the bow? Would it look so good?

"bass--"

The feather arrow left the bow, broke through the wind with a gray line, and pierced into the red circle of the grass target.

Zhongzheng, remember three chips.

Yu Nanshu smiled and thought that third place was not bad and not shameful.

Yu Jiusi pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and said, "It's windy today, and it's quite strong. You set the pulling force too low, so the arrow doesn't have enough force after it leaves the string, and the path is off, so it's hard to hit the target."

Yu Nanshu also knew the problem.

But one should eat according to one's appetite. She has lacked exercise in recent years, and it is already very good for her to be able to draw the bow to its full length. If she increases the pulling force, it may be counterproductive.

"It's okay, brother." She winked at Yu Jiusi, "Just be the first, I'll practice slowly in the future. But... the wind is blowing from the east today."

If you don’t have enough strength, use your brain!

The east wind just now blew the feather arrow an inch to the west. Then when she shot the arrow, she could have deflected it a little to the east first. Who knows, with some luck she might have hit the target?

This method involves an element of gambling, but Yu Nanshu finds it very interesting.

Under the gaze of everyone, the second feather arrow flew off the string, brushed against the red circle, and stabbed into the "positive" circle, one to the left and one to the right of the first feather arrow.

Although she didn’t win, Yu Nanshu knew that she made the right bet!

She took a deep breath, took out the feather arrow, nocked the arrow, and drew the bow.

The third feather arrow deviated half an inch in the air, and in the astonished eyes of everyone, it steadily pierced into the circle.

"Hit!" Yu Nanshu ran towards Shen Zheng holding a bow, "Sister Shen, I bet right! Hit got five chips, and I got eleven chips. Praise me, praise me now!"

Shen Zheng took the bow from her hand and said, "Great, great! Our Nan Shu is not only an expert in archery, but also knows how to take advantage of the situation. I think she is a good candidate to be a military strategist."

Yu Nanshu held her head high and walked up to Cui Jinyin: "Cui Jinyin, how is it?"

Cui Jinyin turned her head away and didn't look at her. "It's just... normal."

After the charity competition ended, everyone began to count the "donations".

Cui Jinyin donated eight headpieces, valued at five hundred taels, making him the largest sponsor of the event. Together with other sponsorships, the "donations" were valued at nine hundred taels, which Yu Jiusi collected in bulk.

He promised that he would write a donation letter tomorrow, explain the source of the funds, and donate all the money to the foundation.

The foundation is only in its infancy now, and is jointly managed by Shen Zheng and Diwu Na Zheng. The tentative operating model is "merchants manage money, officials manage accounts, they supervise each other, and the court conducts irregular audits."

But there was one thing that made Shen Zheng think for a long time.

Whether it's managing money or accounting, she and Diwu Nazheng are not enough.

What's more, the foundation should not only exist in Shangjing. If it wants to open local branches... the selection of management personnel is still a big problem.

There is strength in numbers. Three cobblers can make a terrible bastard. She decided to discuss it with Yu Shizhang.

"Master Shen."

Just as she was thinking, Lin Fanyun stood in front of her, his eyes sparkling, "I came to Bashang today and saw Lord Shen was busy with official business, so I didn't tell him my name..."

"Sister Zheng! It's time to go home!" Yu Jiusi howled in the distance.

Shen Zheng stood up and said politely, "General Lin's name is well-known. I would like to greet you."

Lin Fanyun walked towards the carriage with her, "Lord Shen is going back to the city? By the way, we are going the same way as Sister Cui, why don't we go together?"

Cui Jinyin, who was following behind, pricked up her ears.

Three carriages and two horses went into the city in a mighty procession.

Shen Zheng rode with Yu Nanshu and Hua Duo, Yu Jiusi and Lin Fanyun rode on horses beside them, Cui Jinyin's carriage followed behind, and finally there was an empty carriage.

In the carriage, Yu Nanshu and Shen Zheng were talking about Zhuang Quanye and laughing. While they were relaxing, Shen Zheng vaguely heard Lin Fanyun talking to Yu Jiusi.

"It's been so many years, and you're not young anymore, why haven't you gotten married yet? Brother Yu, a man should have a family, and only with a family can he have a career. When I heard that you joined the army, I was thinking..."

Yu Jiusi interrupted him: "Don't worry about why I don't get married, but I guess... you didn't get married because the girl doesn't want to have two fathers, right?"
