The boss of a foreign organization called the police, claiming that he was defrauded by me

“Yes, if it were useless, I wouldn’t have discussed this with you.” Yang Xia’s tone was very certain. They already knew the raw materials for Wujiu, so these problems could be solved at the source.

"Your Majesty, if that is the case, I think the problem is easy to solve."

“My son-in-law is a prince from the Nebula Kingdom. As long as he puts a good word for me with Ram, the matter of attracting traffic will be a natural success.” Guan Ce was quite confident about this and thought the method was feasible, as long as it would allow his daughter to get married smoothly.

He naturally understood that the ban issued by Yang Xia could not be easily lifted, and that coming up with this roundabout method was not bad, as long as it could solve the family problem.

"Are you really that confident? Traffic generation is no small matter, and Ram might not agree." Yang Xia was secretly pleased to hear Guan Ce say this, but he also knew that the matter was somewhat tricky, so he deliberately showed the other party a troubled look.

"I don't think it's a big problem. My son-in-law is a member of the royal family, so I'll take care of this." Guan Ce patted his chest and assured him, his previous frustration completely gone.

Wealthy businessmen with such power only care about solving their own problems and don't care about anything else.

"That's good. As long as the traffic acquisition issue is resolved, your other problems are nothing." Yang Xia gave the other party full recognition and hoped that the matter could be completed smoothly.

"Your Majesty, I know what to do. I will work towards this goal, and I believe I can succeed." Guan Ce finally found a solution and happily returned home.

"Your Majesty, do you really think this can be accomplished? Who knows how capable Guan Ce is?" Seeing Guan Ce leave so excitedly, General Meng Yu couldn't help but ask. Neither of them expected that things would suddenly take a turn for the better.

It must be said that Yang Xia is indeed quick-witted and always manages to come up with solutions to problems. However, they don't know how effective these solutions will be or whether they will proceed as planned.

"The Guan family is quite powerful, and I believe this problem can be solved." Yang Xia was quite confident about this, and General Meng Yu could only nod in agreement.

Guan Ce returned to his residence in high spirits and discussed the matter of diverting traffic with his daughter.

“My dear daughter, the King’s decree cannot be lifted at will, but I have thought of another way. As long as we divert the water from the moat of the Nebula Kingdom to the Great Zhou Dynasty, all these problems will be solved.” Guan Ce hurriedly told his daughter about this.

“Father, this is no easy task. I’m afraid we don’t have the ability to do it.” Guan Ce’s daughter looked troubled after hearing this. They all knew that this was no small matter.

"My dear daughter, this depends on your abilities. You must get your husband to persuade Ram to complete the referral process so that your wedding can proceed as planned." Guan Ce smiled mysteriously. This kind of problem is difficult in some ways, but easy in others. As long as his son-in-law talks to Ram properly, it's not impossible to get it done.

"Then I'll give it a try!" Guan Ce's daughter understood her father's meaning and went to her husband to coax him.

"Husband, you should quickly discuss with Ram about diverting the water from the moat of the Nebula Kingdom to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Only then can we solve the problem of Wujiu (black wine) and our wedding proceed as planned," Guan Ce's daughter said sweetly to her husband.

"This matter may not be so easy, I can't guarantee it." Guan Ce's son-in-law was startled, not expecting to have to accomplish such a big task as attracting traffic, and he didn't know if he could do it.

"Husband, I can tell you don't like me. If you loved me, you would go through fire and water for me. Don't you want to marry me sooner?" Guan Ce's daughter kept pleading, melting her husband's heart.

Her husband was a devoted husband, and after being coaxed like this, he decided to give it a try.

Guan Ce's son-in-law was originally Lamu's cousin, a genuine member of the royal family, so his words naturally carried weight.

"Cousin, I'm about to marry my beloved wife, but the water quality in the Great Zhou Dynasty is worrying. Could we divert the water from our moat to that area? That would solve all the problems."

"Cousin, the water in our moat is still the cleanest. I hope you can agree to this." Guan Ce's son-in-law kept mentioning this issue to Ram, strongly requesting that the water be diverted.

"Alright then, since it's for my cousin's wedding, I'll naturally agree." Ram readily agreed to the referral program.

"Thank you so much, cousin. Now my marriage is settled. I will hold the wedding as soon as possible." Guan Ce's son-in-law was also overjoyed, and everything was done as they wished.

"No need to thank me. The water quality and environment of the Great Zhou Dynasty are indeed very poor, incomparable to our Nebula Kingdom." Ram didn't forget to belittle the Great Zhou Dynasty at the end, always showing disdain when the Great Zhou Dynasty was mentioned.

Yang Xia was overjoyed to hear the news, never expecting that this major problem would be solved so quickly.

In less than a week, the lead generation work was successfully completed, and everything was proceeding according to Yang Xia's plan.

"Great! Now that we have the purple waters of the Nebula Kingdom's moat, plus our weather controller to regulate the weather, the conditions for planting celandine are fully met." Yang Xia was also very proud. Now they could successfully plant celandine, and the subsequent series of tasks could be completed naturally.

Yang Xia successfully planted white cephalotaxus at the drainage point, and everything went as they expected; the white cephalotaxus grew extremely fast.

"Your Majesty, this is wonderful! Now the problem can be completely solved. Once this white caltrop grows successfully, we can develop an antidote." General Meng Yu's tone was filled with boundless excitement.

They all knew that the process of developing an antidote would be quite lengthy, but having their own cultivated white celandine would make their research process much easier.

"Yes, hopefully an antidote can be developed as soon as possible, and the crisis for the Great Zhou Dynasty and the people of Yan Kingdom can be completely resolved." Yang Xia nodded thoughtfully. They had indeed put in a lot of effort for this matter, and now that they finally saw a turning point, he was naturally overjoyed.

"Yang Xia, you really have a knack for this. You can solve all these problems for you."

"It seems there's nothing in this world that can stump you. I truly admire you." Upon hearing the news, Sun Zhengming quickly congratulated Yang Xia and expressed his admiration for him.

As they spent more and more time together, he came to understand Yang Xia better and discovered that he was indeed a capable person who could resolve any problem.

"Brother Sun, you flatter me. This is just the beginning. We need to develop an antidote as soon as possible." Yang Xia remained very modest.

Yang Xia finally succeeded, diverting the purple waters of the Nebula Kingdom's moat to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the white chrysanthemum was successfully planted.
However, a new problem arose: the antidote had not yet been successfully developed, and Guan Ce and his team would sooner or later discover that the moat's waters had no effect on alleviating drug addiction symptoms.

"What should we do? The research on the antidote is still inconclusive, and we don't know when we'll be able to solve this problem."

Yang Xia paced anxiously back and forth. This matter was urgent; if an antidote could not be developed soon, the problem would only worsen.

The people of Xingyun Kingdom never stopped supplying large quantities of Wujiu to the Great Zhou Dynasty and Yan Kingdom, and as time went on, the situation naturally worsened.

During this period, Yang Xia felt extremely restless and uneasy, but he didn't know how to solve this problem.

General Meng Yu was also frowning with worry. Everyone was working hard on this matter, but unfortunately, there was still no good solution.

Just then, the old imperial physician Fujita suddenly reported that he had discovered the relevant antidote, and Yang Xia excitedly summoned him immediately.

"Old Imperial Physician, have you really found the antidote?" Yang Xia asked hurriedly upon seeing Fujita.

“Your Majesty, I tasted the root of white celandine and conducted countless experiments before I discovered the connection.”

"By mixing the root of white celandine with the juice of rose, grinding it into powder, one can relieve the symptoms of black wine, and the problem can be solved with just one dose."

Fujita happily shared his experimental results, which would alleviate the symptoms caused by the black wine, sparing the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Yan Kingdom from further suffering. Not only Yang Xia, but any citizen with a conscience was actively trying to solve this problem, like the old imperial physician Fujita before him.

He knew that Yang Xia had gone to great lengths to cultivate Bai Qu (a type of medicinal herb) in order to find a suitable antidote.

His family has been practicing medicine for generations, so their medical skills are naturally very high.

Fujita then calmed down and began to search for a related antidote. His hard work paid off, and he eventually succeeded in his research.

"Old Imperial Physician, is what you're saying true?"

Yang Xia could hardly believe his ears; the result came too suddenly.

"Your Majesty, I have tested this medicine many times and it is indeed effective. You can use it with confidence. I cannot bear to see the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty suffer so much, and some have even gone bankrupt to buy black wine."

Fujita became more and more excited as he spoke. He felt heartbroken seeing the people who had suffered from the poison of the black wine. Now that there was such a rare antidote, he was naturally willing to promote it as soon as possible.

"Old Imperial Physician, it is truly a blessing for the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty to have a patriot like you."

Yang Xia excitedly grasped Fujita's hand and thanked him. The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty were now saved, and the people of Yan Kingdom could also be rescued from their suffering. This was something to be very happy about.

"Your Majesty, however, the production of this antidote is only the beginning and will take some time. Furthermore, Your Majesty's assistance is needed to facilitate the research and production of the antidote."

Fujita then told Yang Xia about the antidote development process, explaining that this was just an experiment by Fujita, and the real antidote had not yet been fully developed.

"Old Imperial Physician, please feel free to ask for anything you need, and I will do my best to support you."

Upon hearing Fujita's words, Yang Xia immediately expressed his support. Now that the antidote was promising, they would naturally work together to develop it.

The research into the antidote is progressing step by step, but Fujita's discovery represents a major leap forward.

Yang Xia was still quite confident that he could develop an antidote in a short period of time. With Fujita's help, these aspects should be much easier.

"Your Majesty, please send someone to help collect some roses, the more the better, so that my research work can proceed normally."

Fujita is very confident in this regard, and he is willing to put in more effort as long as an antidote can be developed.

After discovering this situation by chance, Fujita already had his own ideas about it.

"Old Imperial Physician, these matters are relatively simple. I will send someone to handle them immediately. If there is anything else that requires assistance, please feel free to speak up."

Yang Xia immediately perked up, determined to develop the antidote no matter what, because the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Yan Kingdom could no longer suffer this torment.

If things continue like this, the people of these two countries will pay an even heavier price, which is the situation Yang Xia least wants to see.

"Your Majesty, that's all for now. Nothing else is needed. I will prepare the antidote as soon as possible."

Fujita could see Yang Xia's urgency and quickly assured him that their goals were the same: to develop the antidote as soon as possible.

Fujita was quite confident; it was just a matter of time.

Yang Xia was overjoyed; he could finally begin developing an antidote.
However, it requires a large number of roses, so the workload is still considerable, and it is necessary to ensure that the people of both the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Yan Kingdom have the opportunity to use it.

"General Meng Yu, go immediately to find all the roses within the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty and make sure there is a sufficient supply. The old imperial physician will be able to prepare the antidote soon."

Yang Xia immediately arranged for General Meng Yu to search the entire city for roses, a huge undertaking indeed.

General Meng Yu knew this was a good thing for the country and the people, and he immediately began to act after receiving the order.

Soon, a large quantity of rose petals were transported over, and Fujita prepared the antidote according to the previous method, which proved to be very effective.

"Your Majesty, this antidote is extremely effective, but the workload is enormous, and it will take me half a month to complete it all."

Yang Xia readily agreed to Fujita's reply.

"Old Imperial Physician, I know you have done your best. If you can complete the preparation of all the antidotes within half a month, the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Yan Kingdom will be saved."

Yang Xia was extremely excited. No matter what, he finally saw hope, and the crisis could be completely resolved in half a month.

Fujita began working feverishly on the antidote, spinning around like a top every day.

Half a month is neither a long nor a short time, but for the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Yan Kingdom, every day was an ordeal.

Some people bought Wujiu through sales channels secretly provided by the Nebula Kingdom, but others were unable to purchase it.

Some people have already become destitute from buying Wujiu (a type of Chinese liquor) and can no longer afford to buy it, yet their physical suffering has not lessened at all.

Unable to endure the physical pain, these people came out to cause trouble, and they even blamed Yang Xia for it.

"The king is utterly disregarding our lives; this living hell is unbearable."

“We are struggling to make ends meet; we should have a serious talk with the King.”

When Yang Xia heard about the horrific disturbances caused by the ravaged populace taking to the streets, he realized the problem was serious.

"Your Majesty, those people are truly ungrateful. We are working hard to prepare the antidote, and they have come out to cause trouble." General Meng Yu was particularly angry.

"Alright, the people are having a hard time too. They've been driven to poverty by the black liquor. Let's give each household some subsidies so they can live in peace."

Yang Xia, as expected of a wise and virtuous ruler, was able to understand the hardships faced by the people and immediately distributed subsidies to them to stabilize public morale.

The situation in Yan Kingdom wasn't much better; there were constant disturbances, and Sun Zhengming even frequently sought help from Yang Xia. They were all overwhelmed by the situation. (End of Chapter)
