Chapter 1718: Chapter 1718: Just These Five People

"It’s doubled, but not just doubling, it’s tenfold, which means, in the food garden space, if you spend one point, you will have to spend ten points for merit," Yujing explained.

Reading these words, Lin Caisang’s legs went weak, and she almost collapsed on the floor!

Tenfold, oh tenfold, it was indeed tenfold!!!

"I was saying that earning these merit points was too easy, getting a few here and a few there, but I didn’t realize there was such a big pit waiting to swallow up my merit points here!" she exclaimed.

Indeed, in the previous medicinal garden space and pasture space, she hadn’t spent much in terms of points, with Sui Ziyou alone, plus her occasional maintenance, it was sufficient.

But the food garden space was different!

In this place, cultivating crops required frequent care, and moreover, such a large food garden space couldn’t be managed by just a few people.

Let alone just by her alone, it was impossible to manage well.

"Can I contract more guardians if it helps?" she tried asking.

Of course, this was just voicing out the possibility; she wasn’t really going to contract guardians for the food garden space for no reason.

"The food garden space is different from other spaces; in the food garden, guardians cannot be used, Master," the words displayed in Yujing explained.

So, I can only use merit points, not just points?

Points were still needed for upgrades, but merit points, apart from being exchangeable for items in the pulse veins, seemed to have no other major use.

And earning them was, comparatively, much easier than earning points.

"Forget it, we’ll talk about it later."

Now, she should first go to Prince Mo’s Mansion to see the cloaked man who was captured.

Who knows if he had spilt out some information!

...

Inside Prince Mo’s Mansion.

Five people dressed in the same color stood before Sui Zimo, their master observing their faces.

"Only these few people, so few?" he asked Jiang Li.

Jiang Li, waiting for his master to pick people, said nothing.

What was going on? His lord suddenly told him to find a few sharp-minded subordinates who knew business.

He had indeed found five people, yet his lord was still questioning him, why so few?

Was he implying that Jiang Li hadn’t found enough people?

But these were the people whom his lord had specifically requested; how could he take liberties? These five were already the most he could find within Shaohua City, and certainly, their business acumen was sufficient.

"My lord, these five are... the best," Jiang Li said.

"Alright, let’s settle for these five then."

Though there were fewer people than desired, Sui Zimo couldn’t be too disdainful of his own subordinates, could he?

"Jiang Li, run personally to Liang Kingdom, pick another five people, and take them directly to Yejun," he then ordered.

"Yes, my lord, I will go immediately," Jiang Li responded.

Jiang Li didn’t know what his lord was planning, but he still complied.

It was probably some top-secret big project his lord was contemplating; he would eventually find out.

He turned around, ready to head to Liang Kingdom.

"Jiang Li, where are you rushing off to in such a hurry?"

Just as he was grabbing his bag, ready to leave, he saw Lin Caisang who had just come in from outside.

"Miss Lin, I am off to Liang Kingdom," he replied.

Towards Lin Caisang, he was as open as he could be, considering his lord kept no secrets from Miss Lin. If he were to withhold information, it wouldn’t be right.
