Jin Shuai's gaze slowly swept over the group of merchants before him, and he continued, "Therefore, I hope you can stay in Tokyo for a few more days. If nothing unexpected happens, there will be a big business deal to discuss with you then." As he finished speaking, Jin Shuai's smile became even brighter.

Upon hearing this, the leading merchant quickly bowed and respectfully replied, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Excellency! We will certainly follow your instructions. We will go back and quickly finish our business, and await your summons at any time." After saying this, he bowed deeply to Jin Shuai before leading his entourage away in haste.

Jin Shuai had barely stepped into the courtyard when he saw Liu Shan leading his charming daughter, Liu Yueru, hurrying towards him. Liu Shan, beaming, said, “My lord, I’ve been working tirelessly these past few days and have finally managed to concoct some excellent medicine specifically for treating knife wounds. However, I’m truly unsure of its effectiveness! I’m quite worried about giving it to others rashly…” As he spoke, he respectfully presented Jin Shuai with an exquisite porcelain bottle.

Seeing this, Jin Shuai reached out and took the porcelain bottle, gently lifted the cap, and sniffed it carefully. After a moment, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he were deep in thought. A moment later, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded thoughtfully, then laughed with realization: "Haha, I understand! So you want me to find someone who can try this medicine for you."

Upon hearing this, Liu Shan nodded hurriedly and replied, "That is exactly what I intend to do. I hope Your Excellency will grant my request."

Jin Shuai smiled slightly, replying confidently, "This matter isn't difficult to handle. You should quickly go back and prepare more of this medicine. As for the test subjects, we might as well go to the prison and find those wicked prisoners who have committed capital crimes. That way, even if the medicine has some flaws, it will be considered a contribution to them, and you won't have to bear too much pressure." As he finished speaking, a sly glint flashed in his eyes.

"Then I'll trouble you, Your Excellency! I'll head back now and prepare some more of the best medicine for my injuries," Liu Shan said respectfully, bowing slightly with gratitude on his face.

Jin Shuai nodded and replied with a smile, "Yes, that's fine. Oh, by the way, Yue Ru, when we're dealing with these injured people, you can use them as test subjects for those cases that require suturing. Once you've mastered this technique, I also plan to have you study in depth some methods for diagnosing and treating diseases specifically for women. You know, as a woman, you do face some inconveniences when dealing with certain illnesses, but if you can master this skill, you'll definitely achieve great things in the future. What do you think?" After saying that, Jin Shuai looked at Liu Yue Ru with gentle eyes, his gaze filled with expectation and encouragement.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yueru was overjoyed. She quickly took a small step forward, gracefully curtsied, and replied sweetly, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Excellency! I will do my best and live up to your expectations!" At this moment, her beautiful face was filled with excitement and determination, as lovely as a blooming flower.

Jin Shuai sat quietly in his chair, watching Liu Shan and Yue Ru's figures gradually disappear from sight, before falling into deep thought. At that moment, he was devising a grand plan—to draw up a blueprint for his own future. And the realization of this blueprint required taking a crucial first step: acquiring sufficient start-up capital to cultivate a powerful army completely loyal to him. He knew all too well that in this dog-eat-dog, ever-changing era, without sufficient military force to intimidate all sides, all ideals and ambitions were nothing but a fleeting illusion.
