A post-apocalyptic female soul travels back to the War of Resistance against Japan

"Look at the mountains, rivers, villages, and houses on this map. Every part is a masterpiece. It's wonderful! Absolutely wonderful! Brother Zeyang, how many maps like this do you have?"

"Could you give me one? Don't worry, I won't take it for free. I'll pay for it myself. If that doesn't work, I'll trade you something else, okay?"

Lin Zeyang was surprised by the excitement of the crowd. He hadn't expected the effect to be so good.

He shook his head, feigning distress, and said, "Brother Zichuan, to tell you the truth, this map was made by my daughter's master, who travels all over the world."

"The maps he created were not only exquisite, but also extremely accurate, which was truly rare. He once told my daughter that if anyone wanted these maps, they could obtain them for one hundred taels of silver, or exchange them for some treasures of equal value."

Everyone was delighted upon hearing this, and Zhang Jingyu, Chu Yu, and the others eagerly said, "Brother Zeyang, you must save a portion for me, I want a portion."

"Brother Zeyang, isn't one hundred taels too little? Don't give us such a low price just because we're classmates and friends. This topographical map is a priceless treasure!"

The group started fighting over the two maps without any hesitation!

Some even took out silver notes worth more than one hundred taels and stuffed them into Lin Zeyang's hands. Ling Zichuan was quick; he first snatched one and stuffed it into his pocket, never to take it out again. Moreover, he took out two hundred taels of silver notes and stuffed them into Lin Zeyang's hands.

Lin Ziyang quickly pulled out the silver notes from his pocket and said, "Brothers, and Brother Zichuan, my daughter's master once left a message that a topographical map can be obtained for just one hundred taels."

"I'll say it again, if you don't want to buy it with money, you can exchange it for something of equal value. Also, Brother Zichuan gave me two hundred taels of silver notes, so I'll return the extra to you. I only need one hundred taels."

"Please don't refuse, everyone. This isn't the price I set. It's what my daughter's master left behind before he passed away. I must keep my promise to him. I hope you brothers understand!"

Yan Rufeng then asked, "Brother Zeyang, tell me the truth, do you have any more topographic maps? You only have two, which is not enough for us brothers to share!"

"Brothers, let me be honest with you. I have ten portions in total, which is more than enough for each of you. So there's no need for you to fight over them. And as I said before, if you're buying with money, it's one hundred taels per portion."

"It's the same if you exchange it for something of equal value."

After hearing this, everyone felt relieved that they would each receive a share.

However, the people present were all discerning. When they heard that Lin Zeyang still had ten portions, and there were six of them in total, none of whom were fools, the ten portions were snatched up by the brothers. Some even regretted not getting two portions.

The person who receives two copies of the topographic map will not lose money, whether they keep one for themselves, give one away, or resell it.

Two other people even traded rare medicinal herbs for it. After the exchange, they immediately stuffed the precious map into their pockets and made up various excuses to run away, as if they were afraid that Lin Zeyang would regret it.

This left Lin Zeyang both amused and exasperated. When Lin Zeyang returned to his residence and recounted the incident, apart from Cheng Ying remaining calm, Luo Wanyin stared in disbelief, holding the silver notes in her hand.

The silver notes in her hand were worth more than two thousand taels, and she even saw a ginseng root that was over a hundred years old on the table.

Luo Wanyin suddenly realized that making money wasn't too difficult, especially since the items she took from Bo Nu had become hot commodities. This was only an order for one hundred taels of silver per item; if she ordered two hundred or three hundred taels, she estimated that they would all sell!

In any case, all ten maps were sold, and they didn't feel guilty about selling those ten maps!

After all, the maps were indeed great value for money, and the three of them went to rest after washing up with mixed feelings!

The next morning, the family of three had just finished washing up and were about to go downstairs to get some food when they ran into the head镖师 (bodyguard/escort) Wang Bo. He cupped his hands and said, "Master Lin, may I have a word with you?"

Although Lin Zeyang was puzzled as to why Wang Biao had come to him so early in the morning, he still found a secluded place, where Wang Bo then revealed his purpose.

"Master Lin, I heard that you have a detailed topographic map of the entire area from Yunzhou to Qingzhou, so I, Wang, would like to purchase a copy. I hope Master Lin can make an exception for me!"

Lin Zeyang was taken aback. Although he was prepared, he did not expect that the first person to come to him would be Chief Escort Wang. "To be honest, Chief Escort Wang, I only have two more copies here, so I want to keep them for myself and do not intend to sell them. I hope Chief Escort Wang can understand."

Lin Zeyang actually had a few more portions, which his daughter later gave him in case someone else needed them. But since he had already said that he only had ten portions, he couldn't easily give them away.

Lin Zeyang kept everyone in suspense for a moment, and sure enough, Wang Bo became anxious when he heard that Lin Zeyang didn't intend to betray him.
