Qiu Shan observed the situation below and waited a while before continuing, "Starting this afternoon, for the next three days, we will be here teaching everyone planting techniques and selling various vegetable seeds. You can arrange your time in advance to come and learn and purchase seeds."

Upon hearing the news, many people became excited and inquired about the price of the seeds.

In particular, many ordinary people who are struggling financially cannot afford to buy those expensive vegetables today.

But if they buy the seeds and plant these vegetables later, they can not only eat them themselves, but also make a profit.

Qiu Shandao said, "In order to ensure that every household can grow these rare vegetables, we sell our seeds very cheaply. Each type of vegetable seed costs only one cent."

Hearing that it only cost one penny, many people were delighted.

They certainly can't afford vegetables, but they can definitely afford these seeds.

Many businessmen's eyes lit up as well.

These vegetables are so delicious. If they learn how to grow them and buy the seeds to grow them in large quantities, they could make a fortune in the future.

Especially when sold in Beijing, where wealthy people congregate, these vegetables are sure to make a fortune.

The merchants were thinking about making money, but Minister Yan was thinking about Ji Yunshuang's motives. She couldn't possibly be unaware that there were a large number of merchants in the city, and these merchants came from all over the country.

When the merchants left Jingyang City, they would surely have taken the news from the city with them. Was she deliberately offering these merchants some benefits so they would help spread her good reputation?

Not only did she spread her good name, but she was also ambitious, thinking that the other territories of Zhou were also within her grasp.

Otherwise, why wouldn't she guard against people spreading these vegetable seeds to other places?

Isn't it because she thinks those places belong to her too?

He observed his surroundings discreetly.

Given the occasion, Madam Ji must be here. Where will she be hiding, observing the situation throughout the meeting?

If we could track her down, then we could join forces with outsiders to capture her. Capturing her would certainly be better than our previous plan.

However, after observing for a long time, he still could not find any trace of Ji Yunshuang.

After the event ended and he returned to his room, Minister Yan summoned all the men he had sent out and asked them about the results of their investigations.

To his disappointment, none of the many people he sent out had actually seen Ji Yunshuang.

After believing everyone's replies, Yan couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "Has she really come back?"

"She's definitely back," Minister Yan affirmed. "If she hadn't returned, where would these things at today's auction have come from? That Ji family member is hiding a big secret."

Thinking about the incredible things they had seen at the auction today, and the vegetables they had never seen before, Yan Xin fell silent.

“We have to find a way to catch her. Once we catch her, we can figure out her secret.”

After finishing his speech, Minister Yan turned to his group of subordinates and ordered, "Go down and investigate again. You must find a way to find out her whereabouts."

At this moment, someone hesitated and said, "Minister... what if the Ji family is really a deity?"

Once the boldest among them spoke up first, the rest hesitantly began to express their concerns.

"Logically speaking... it's impossible for someone to walk without leaving any trace, but we've been investigating for so long and haven't found a single trace of Ji Shi. She really is like an immortal who comes and goes without a trace."

"Even if she's not a deity, she's probably a powerful demon from that mountain. If she weren't a demon, how could she lock people in that black box and let them cook inside?"

"Yes, yes, and that thing Qiu Shan is holding. It's so weird, it can make his voice so loud. I can still hear him even when I'm outside the market. Would this be even more powerful if it were used as a war drum on the battlefield?"

"We are all mortals, how can we fight against gods and demons?"

……

As he listened to his subordinates' words, Minister Yan's face grew increasingly dark.

He said coldly, "She could never be a goddess."

"If she's a deity, why doesn't she just live happily in heaven? Why does she have to fight for the throne of an emperor in the mortal world? Isn't being a deity a thousand times, ten thousand times happier than being an emperor in the mortal world?"

Minister Yan's words brought some relief to the guards who were worried about offending the gods and being punished, which would also implicate their families.

As long as it's not a god.

They are not gods, but they have a way to defeat them.

Even if we fail to win, our families will not be implicated.

Minister Yan said, "However, one thing is certain: she is indeed carrying a secret. Once you figure out the secret she is carrying, you will all be great contributors, and you will be promoted to kings and prime ministers in the future."

The reason why Ji Shi, a woman, was able to conquer the State of Qi was mainly due to the secret she possessed.

If he can uncover Ji Yunshuang's secrets and take control of her, then who knows who will rule the world!

Who knows, the ruler of this land might end up with the surname Yan.

Yan Xin and his guards could hear the immense ambition in his words. They were somewhat worried, but after the worry passed, they felt a surge of excitement.

Who doesn't want to stand out from the crowd? Who doesn't want to be a superior person?

No one wants to miss this opportunity.

Just as everyone was getting excited, a guard rushed in and said, "Sir, something bad has happened! Our men were spotted in the market today, and we've been exposed."

This news was like a bolt from the blue.

Yan Xin was shocked. "How could we have been discovered?"
