The people of Western Xinjiang have the ability to communicate with animals, which is a setting tailor-made for the affectionate second male lead Liu Yi in the book.

But in the book, apart from Liu Yi and Asuo, no one from Western Xinjiang appears. How could Feng Yi, a little beggar who only appears in three chapters and doesn't even have a name, be related to Western Xinjiang?

Knowing Jiang Wansang's doubts, Feng Yi took the initiative to tell his story: "My mother is from Western Xinjiang. When the Emperor of Southern Jiangsu led his troops to attack Western Xinjiang, my mother was caught up in the fighting and fled to Southern Jiangsu, where my father took her in. Later, a drought struck my hometown, and my father was killed by bandits while fleeing the famine. So my mother brought me to the imperial city."

He described his life story in a very simple way, but he only knew how many secrets he hid in it.

"People from Xinjiang are born with the ability to perceive the language of animals. After my mother discovered my talent, she began to teach me how to communicate with animals correctly. I have survived these years thanks to this ability."

Otherwise, how could he, a half-grown child, support so many little beggars in the City God Temple by himself?

Although Western Xinjiang is now under the protection of the Southern Su Kingdom and its exact location is only known to the Southern Su royal family, there are still many people in the world who covet the talents of the people of Western Xinjiang.

Few of the people from Western Xinjiang who drifted abroad had a good ending. Even if they did, it was only because of their outstanding abilities and the great benefits they brought to their masters that they received some preferential treatment.

It is precisely for this reason that Feng Yi has been hiding his life experience all these years, even his friends who have depended on him for many years do not know.

Now that he has taken the initiative to tell Jiang Wansang everything, he must have made up his mind.

Because of Liu Yi, Jiang Wansang knew about the current situation of the people in Western Xinjiang, so she knew what Feng Yi meant by telling her all this, and she also understood his determination to go to Beisheng Kingdom to establish an intelligence network.

Based on this point alone, no matter how difficult it was, she had no reason to reject Feng Yi's decision.

But after a moment's silence, she asked, "Jiang Er told me that you are indeed very talented in gathering information, but I don't need a powerful intelligence network at the moment. If you stay with Jiang Er and work, you can avoid enduring all the hardships and difficulties alone. Why do you have to go to Beisheng by yourself?"

Feng Yi's expression flickered slightly when he mentioned this, but his eyes were firm. "I have such talent, so I should make my own achievements instead of hiding behind Brother Jiang Er and enjoying life."

This was what he really thought, but another reason he wanted to set up an intelligence network was to fulfill his mother's greatest obsession before her death.

Before his death, his mother had told him to find that person, so no matter how difficult his life was over the years, he never left the imperial city. However, he didn't know whether that person was still in the imperial city.

If the intelligence network can be established, it will also help him find people.

Jiang Wansang did not miss the expression on his face. She could guess that he was hiding a secret in his heart, and she could also see that he really didn't want to hide behind someone else for the rest of his life.

After pondering for a long time, Jiang Wansang made a decision in his heart.

Trust the people you employ, and don't employ the people you doubt. Judging from Feng Yi's performance during this period, he had already let go of his initial wariness and chose to submit to her.

In this case, sending him to Beisheng to do this is also a good choice.

Jiang Wansang finally nodded in agreement. "Okay, when Jiang San and Jiang Jiu go to Beisheng, you can come along too. If you're going to do this, you have to do it to the best of your ability. I'll prepare ten thousand taels of silver for you, and you can decide how to divide it up."

This is not an easy decision, and just saying it makes Jiang Wansang feel a pang of pain.

Shen Qiuyun will be leaving after the Chinese New Year. If she wants to come up with ten thousand taels of silver during this period, she also has to maintain the expenses of all activities in the imperial city. The profits from the hot pot restaurant and the things she got from Jiang Gaoyuan are probably not enough.

Now that Jiang San and Jiang Jiu have gone on a mission, the others have been training for so long, it’s time to let them out to earn money for her.

Jiang Wansang was rapidly thinking through his plan, but Feng Yi's eyes widened in surprise. It took him a long time to find his voice: "Boss... aren't you afraid that I'll run away with the money?"

That’s ten thousand taels!

The boss actually gave him the money and sent him to such a far place as Beisheng. If he ran away, we wouldn’t be able to find him.

Jiang Wansang raised her eyebrows and smiled confidently and calmly, "You can try."

There was no deliberate threat, nor any exaggerated words like "I believe you", but Feng Yi truly felt a sense of trust in being entrusted with an important task.

At this moment, Feng Yi made up his mind to establish the largest and most extensive intelligence network in Beisheng in order to repay the boss for not only saving their lives, but also providing them with food and shelter, the opportunity to learn to read, and even being willing to entrust such an important matter to him.

Jiang Wansang had no idea of ​​his firm idea. She was thinking about how to make a lot of money and how to send Feng Yi to Beisheng.

Jiang San and Jiang Jiu were going to be Shen Qiuyun's bodyguards. They could follow Shen Qiuyun openly, but what Feng Yi was going to do had to be kept secret. It was not an easy task to secretly send him and ten thousand taels of silver to Beisheng.

Moreover, Feng Yi was not going alone. He also wanted to bring two brothers who came out of the City God Temple with him and who had the best relationship with him and the most tacit cooperation with him.

Jiang Wansang was worried about this for several days and even thought of using the black market channels.

In a prosperous and luxurious place like the Imperial City, there are bound to be some shady things that require some shady means, and this is where the black market comes from.

There are many routes for secret travel between Nansu and Beisheng in the black market, but the black market has no guarantees and black-on-black espionage may happen at any time.

After all, Feng Yi and his companions were just young boys. Carrying so much silver to Beisheng, no one could tell whether something would happen on the way.

To be safe, Jiang Wansang plans to go to the black market in person and see if there are any tasks he can take on.

She has been secretly training Jiang Yi and the others for so long, not just to make them her bodyguards, she should let them see the world.

Places like the black market are very suitable for testing their training results.

Going to the black market naturally requires hiding one's identity, so Jiang Wansang specially designed a black robe. After wearing it, it is impossible to tell whether the person is a man or a woman from the appearance, and the large hood can completely cover the person's appearance.

This kind of clothes is not suitable for custom-made outside, so Jiang Wansang handed the task over to the skillful Zheliu.

It takes time to make a set of clothes, so Jiang Wansang took this opportunity to count the money he had.

Some people in the market have begun to imitate her hot pot. Although the impact on her is not that big, the store’s profits are indeed less.

Hearing that there were a lot more good things in Sang Pavilion's warehouse, Jiang Wansang needed the money immediately, so he packed up the things in the warehouse and sent them to the auction house.

Jiang Gaoyuan's collection is full of good things. They are much more valuable if sent to an auction house than to a pawnshop, so the news will naturally spread much faster.

When Jiang Gaoyuan learned that all his things had been sent to the auction house, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He had secretly made many preparations to secretly take those things back.
