After being bought by seven rough men and taken to the deep mountains, I was pampered.

After the rain stopped and the sky cleared, Langya Village was in an uproar.

"My goodness! What is that? Has the mountain god appeared?!"

Several idle men at the village entrance rubbed their eyes, their eyeballs almost popping out and falling to the ground.

At the end of the village road, the seven Qin brothers stood, soaked to the bone, yet each one held their head high and exuded a menacing aura.

Behind them, on a makeshift trailer made of several thick tree trunks, lay a colossal creature as large as a small mountain!

The glossy black mane, the pair of tusks still dripping blood, and the enormous pig's head that had been hacked down to just a layer of skin...

"It's the King of Wild Boars! It's the King of Wild Boars from the deep mountains!"

"This thing must weigh at least 300 pounds! That's a lot of meat!"

Boom! The entire village erupted in cheers.

In this desolate and cold land, this pig is a gold mine!

Su Wan was protected by Qin Lie in the middle, her body wrapped in a worn but masculine leather armor, with only her peach blossom eyes showing.

Looking at the greedy, jealous, and fearful eyes of the villagers around her, she felt only one word: "Awesome!"

The more thrilling it was on the mountain, the more magnificent it is now.

In the crowd, Wang Dajiao, who had been humiliated earlier, was now cowering against the wall, staring at the wild boar with a face contorted with jealousy. "Pah! I knew the Qin family was weird! They must have used some underhanded methods... How could they possibly win?"

She cursed under her breath, but her triangular eyes were glued to the pork, and drool was practically dripping down her chin.

"Second brother." Qin Lie, who had been silent all along, suddenly stopped and turned to look at the "strategist" beside him.

Qin Mo pushed up his glasses, and a glint of light flashed behind the lenses.

He understood his elder brother's meaning perfectly. "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."

This pig is too conspicuous. If we don't share some of the broth with them, these villagers with their contempt for food will tear down the Qin family's walls tonight.

"Fellow villagers!" Qin Mo stepped forward, a faint (insincere) smile appearing on his usually gloomy face. "The Qin family's fortunate hunt of this wild boar today is all thanks to you all. We'll keep the wild boar meat for the winter, but if you don't mind, please bring a basin to collect the offal and blood!"

"What?! It's free?!" The villagers were stunned.

Although pig offal has a strong odor, it's still rich in nutrients! Not to mention pig's blood, which is extremely nutritious!

"The Second Master of the Qin family is truly benevolent!" "I knew the Qin brothers were destined for great things!"

The wind direction reversed instantly.

The villagers who had just wanted to watch the excitement instantly became Qin's "die-hard fans," and one by one they went home to get basins and buckets, pushing Wang Dajiao into the stinking ditch.

Looking at Qin Mo's effortless demeanor, Su Wan secretly gave him a thumbs up. As expected of the cunning second brother, a few cheap pig intestines were all it took to win people over.

……

Back home, the front door was closed. The noisy world outside was shut out, leaving only family and the aroma of meat filling the house.

"We've struck it rich! This time we've really struck it rich!" Qin Yue, the fourth brother, had an incredibly bright eye, and the abacus beads in his hand were clicking away so fast they were practically sparking.

"This complete wild boar hide, if taken to the county's fur shop, would fetch at least two taels of silver!"

"This meat... even if we eat it ourselves, it'd fetch an astronomical price if sold to a restaurant!" "And these tusks, the gallbladder... they're all money!"

Several oil lamps were lit inside, casting a dim yellow glow that made the seven men's faces rosy. It was the joy of a bountiful harvest, and also the anticipation of a better future.

Su Wan sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), watching their excited expressions, a smile playing on her lips. This must be the charm of farming novels, right? From having nothing to returning with a bountiful harvest, this solid sense of happiness is stronger than anything else.

"However..." Qin Yue suddenly stopped using the abacus, his gaze swept around, and finally landed on Su Wan.

The girl had already taken off her blood-stained leather armor and was now only wearing a thin, coarse cloth undergarment.

Because she had just gotten caught in the rain, her clothes had shrunk and clung tightly to her body, outlining her incredibly slender waist.

Beneath the tattered sleeve, a section of arm, as white as a lotus root, was revealed, bearing several red scratches from tree branches, which looked particularly jarring.

"Sister-in-law, this dress... is too thin." Qin Yue closed the abacus, his eyes becoming deep. "Our Qin family is rich now, we can't let sister-in-law wear this kind of worn-out rags anymore. We need to make her a new cotton-padded coat."

"Yes! Make a new one!" The third brother, Qin Meng, who was sharpening his knife to cut meat, immediately looked up and shouted in a憨憨 (simple and honest) voice, "Use the best cotton for your sister-in-law! Make it bright red! Beautiful!"

Qin Lie sat in the main seat wiping the hunting knife. Hearing this, he didn't object, but just grunted, "Hmm."

"Since we're making clothes, we need to take measurements." Qin Yue's lips curled into a playful smile as he pulled a thin red string from his pocket. He was a businessman, and carrying a measuring tape was a habit of his.

But instead of handing the red string to Su Wan, he stood up and walked towards her step by step.

"Sister-in-law, don't move." Qin Yue's voice was deep, with an indescribable stickiness to it. "I can measure accurately."

Su Wan looked at the approaching fourth brother and instinctively wanted to shrink back. This man's eyes... didn't look like he was measuring clothes at all, but rather like he was appraising a rare treasure.

"Raise your hand." Qin Yue walked up to her, not giving her a chance to refuse.

Su Wan had no choice but to obediently raise her arms.

Qin Yue walked around behind her. The thin red rope passed under her armpit and gently wrapped around her full breasts.

To ensure accurate measurements, Qin Yue had to get very close. Close enough that Su Wan could feel the faint scent of soap pods emanating from him, and his slightly rapid breathing, caused by excitement, spraying onto the sensitive back of her neck.

"Sister-in-law... you've lost a bit of weight here," Qin Yue murmured, tightening the red string in his hand slightly.

The rope cut into the soft fabric, outlining a stunning curve.

His fingers "inadvertently" brushed against her ribs, causing Su Wan to tremble slightly.

"It itches..." Su Wan couldn't help but shrink back.

"Don't hide." Qin Yue's voice was a little hoarse.

He slid down the red rope and arrived at the most crucial position—his waist.

That waist was incredibly thin. So thin that Qin Yue felt he could pinch it with one hand.

He wrapped the red rope around her waist and clasped his hands together on her abdomen. To see the markings clearly, he practically hugged Su Wan from behind.

"Is your waist... made of water, sister-in-law?" Qin Yue's fingers trembled uncontrollably as he tied the knot. His fingertips touched that warm, soft flesh through the thin fabric.

Boom—! A surge of electricity shot from his fingertips straight to his heart!

Qin Yue closed his eyes, his Adam's apple bobbing violently. A crazy thought even crossed his mind: what if this red string became his hand… or something else…

[Beep! Strong heartbeat detected!]

[Target: Qin Yue (Fourth Son). Identity: Qin Family's Money Chef.]

[Heart rate skyrockets: 160...190...200 (Greedy possessiveness)!]

[Congratulations, host! Your heart rate has reached the required level! You have unlocked the basic commercial formula!]

[Reward: Royal Secret Whitening and Skin-Nourishing Cream Recipe x1!]

Hearing the system notification, Su Wan snapped back to reality. It worked! Her fourth brother, this "cash crop," was indeed powerful!

Just as she was about to break free from the increasingly tight embrace, she heard Qin Yue's voice, barely suppressed, behind her: "Sister-in-law, I've memorized the size. Whether it's clothes... or anything else, I can give you the best."

He released his grip, his fingertips reluctantly sliding down from Su Wan's waist, leaving behind a faint trace of warmth.

Su Wan turned around and met a pair of peach blossom eyes that were bloodshot.

This isn't tailoring; it's practically stripping her bare with his eyes, measuring out his territory inch by inch!

"Um... is the measurement ready?" Su Wan blushed and quickly moved away.

Qin Yue took a deep breath, clutching the red string, still warm from her body, tightly in his hand, and smiled like a fox who had just stolen some cream: "I've taken the measurements. But sister-in-law, this cotton-padded coat takes a long time to make. These next few days... if you're cold, you'll still have to rely on your brothers to keep you warm."

Upon hearing this, the men in the room who had been pretending to be busy paused for a moment.

Warm? How so? Like last night... is it warm to squeeze together on the kang (heated brick bed)?

Su Wan's heart sank as she looked at the room full of men whose eyes had suddenly turned green with lust. Oh no. Tonight's sleep will probably be even harder than last night!

Meanwhile, in Su Wan's mind, the newly unlocked "Whitening and Skin-Nourishing Cream" recipe was shining brightly. Raw materials: a large amount of oil (wild boar oil), Chinese herbs (the second brother is in charge), and spices (the fourth brother is in charge).

Good heavens! This pig not only solved their food problem, but also brought the Qin family their first pot of gold! As long as they can make this whitening cream and sell it to the wealthy ladies in the city... the Qin family is about to take off!
