After being wrongly married, I stabbed my husband to death and became famous throughout the world.

Chen Ying knew that the silver had been dug out of the prison cell.

But... Ah Li hasn't been to jail again recently!

"No... that wasn't the real treasure trove at all!" Li Shu's eyes gleamed. "My house is too small, and I don't dare move everything back. That place is very safe, so I always go back to get more money after I've used it all up..."

"How many...how many are there...?" Chen Ying asked anxiously, her face tense.

Li Shu glanced around and met the shopkeeper's eyes, who immediately gave an awkward smile and looked away.

Li Shu glared at the other person warily before turning to Chen Ying and saying in a low voice, "There's a bead inside, one... this big!"

Li Shu gestured, "I inquired with the traveling merchants. A small bead can be worth ten taels of silver, while a large one can be worth fifty or even a hundred taels. It's hard to say! I don't know exactly how many there are. I never dared to linger too long for fear of being discovered, so I didn't dare to count them carefully..."

"..." Chen Ying's heart raced. "Why are you telling me this..."

"Cousin, do you want the beads?" Li Shu asked.

"..." Chen Ying's lips twitched. "You can't even dream about it. It's yours. Don't say anything more, or I'll get jealous!"

“If you listen to me, I’ll give you the beads, okay?” Li Shu looked at her and coaxed, “Duan Changdong is such a stubborn blockhead. Talk to him and get all the kids in Wuzhuang to listen to me, then everyone will have these beads.”

"Ah Li, you should save your breath... And why should everyone listen to you? I don't understand." Chen Ying was indeed very confused.

“I want everyone to get rich together! But I can’t just give them things for nothing, that would make them lazy. If you really don’t want to, then forget it. After all, I have a bad temper and I like to run around. Doing things according to my rules is really tiring.” Li Shu sighed, seemingly somewhat disappointed.

Chen Ying was a little confused, but after thinking about it, she felt that Ali definitely didn't have any bad intentions, so it wouldn't be a big deal to make her happy.

"I'll talk to Brother Changdong when I get back. You should use the beads sparingly and not be too extravagant. My brother and I don't need them," Chen Ying added.

Li Shu nodded and didn't continue.

After returning, Li Shu and Chen Ying gathered their friends together.

She didn't mention the baby, only that Ali had suffered since childhood. Although she was the older sister at home, she never had the airs of an eldest sister, so she wanted everyone to be more polite to her.

If she has any requests, everyone should try their best to fulfill them.

In terms of money, Ali will receive a small return, not much, but he can't let everyone suffer a loss for nothing.

Everyone had different thoughts, but none of them considered the worst.

Looking at Li Shu... I just felt that she was extremely crazy.

In fact, everyone has grown to admire her a lot these days. No one can match her dedication to martial arts training; even Duan Changdong can't beat her.

Moreover, under her influence, everyone's progress has been very obvious.

Li Shu is also keenly aware of everyone's weaknesses and strengths. For example, Duan Changdong has strong attack capabilities and a stable personality. He can quickly adjust his mood when stimulated or hit.

Chang Fa is rather lazy, but he has excellent observation skills. If someone like him enters the battlefield, he may not be able to defeat others by fighting, but he knows how to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, observe the situation, and his ability to survive is not weak.

Chen Feiqing is indeed not good at martial arts and is not suitable for the battlefield, but he is a calm person who speaks slowly and deliberately. It seems that he is never swayed by emotions, and he is rational, gentle, and has a better ability to analyze right and wrong than everyone else.

Although Chen Ying is a girl, she is impulsive and when excited, she is like a mad bull, only caring about charging forward.

Qi Yu is also good; lately, he's been enjoying asking Li Shu for advice on archery...

In addition, there were the Deng brothers, and others...

In Li Shu's eyes, it was as if there were no ordinary people.

Every time she opened her mouth, she would ramble on and on, making everyone feel like they were invincible heroes.

Over time, everyone was won over by her sweet talk and persistent nature, and now no one dares to underestimate her anymore.

So when Chen Ying brought it up, Duan Changdong asked directly, "What do you want us to do? Just say it. Mentioning money is disrespectful!"

"Let me guess!" Chang Fa quickly interjected, "You've had quite a few people bully you before, don't you want us to help you get revenge?! That's interesting, I agree!"

"..." Chen Feiqing opened his mouth, then closed it again.

"You really agree? This matter could be quite dangerous." Li Shu looked at them sincerely.

"Why would we be afraid of danger?" Duan Changdong looked at everyone and said, "We'll all be going to the battlefield in the future. What could be more terrifying than going to that place? We don't have much time left to get together. While we're all here, we can still help you."

Others nodded.

Upon hearing this, Li Shu said, "We practice martial arts every day, and although we have made some progress, it is not much. I think that when necessary, we need to improve ourselves through actual combat. Moreover... I have also thought that if we can make meritorious contributions, it will be of great benefit after we enter the army. I just don't know if you dare to do it, so I asked my cousin to test it first."

She had intended to trick these people into doing her work.

But I also feel that a conspiracy is not as good as a legitimate plan.

"Make a name for yourself? Real combat? What exactly do you want to do?" Everyone was starting to feel confused.

“This is the government’s wanted notice, which I specifically wrote down.” Li Shu pulled out a long piece of paper from his pocket. “It lists horse thieves. The most expensive ones are worth a hundred taels of silver. The heads of the others are generally worth around twenty or fifty taels. Those horse thieves not on the government’s wanted list are cheaper, some are worth five or ten taels…”

"The Luo family received too little compensation. I heard that they used to receive twenty taels, but this year it's been reduced by half. Your lives aren't even as valuable as these bandits'. So I thought, if you could earn some money before joining the army and make your families live more comfortably, then when you go to the battlefield, you won't have any worries and can go all out." Li Shu continued to persuade them.

"..." Everyone stared at her in shock.

To be honest, they never intended to make money by catching bandits...

Because it's always bandits who come to rob them!

"Ah Li... they are noble, but how do we catch them?" Chen Ying couldn't help but swallow and asked curiously.

“There are always ways to lure the enemy and set traps. These bandits are greedy and don’t work for themselves. They only think about robbing. So we have plenty of opportunities.”

“But they are very powerful…” Chang Fa quickly said.

“Aren’t we powerful?” Li Shu raised his head. “Most of these bandits are deserters from the army. They don’t fight the barbarians outside the pass, but instead come to deal with the weak people inside the pass. This proves that they are not that brave at all. As long as we don’t act recklessly and use good strategies, we have a great chance of winning.”
