I Have A Mountain Stronghold.

Summary

Cheng Dalei learns from the little white wolf about a significant event: the sixtieth birthday of the King of Youzhou, which will involve valuable gifts coming from Green Ox Mountain. The little white wolf proposes that their families collaborate to seize these gifts, but Cheng Dalei is hesitant due to the potential dangers and the need for careful planning. He suggests an agricultural deal involving chili peppers, but the little white wolf declines, indicating others may be interested. Cheng Dalei reflects on his village's limitations and focuses on agriculture instead. He helps a young man from the impoverished Zhu Family Village by lending chili seedlings, marking his first sale.

As summer wanes, he continues his duties and remains committed to non-violence, even as he faces the challenges of his tasks.
