From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

”Senior, how much do you know about Da Wei?”

”Know? I don’t know much, just seen their commander on the battlefield and fought with them!”

Cheng Dagang answered honestly.

”Then you’re definitely unaware of Da Wei’s policies!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

”What policies?” Cheng Dagang asked.

”Various rewards for soldiers fighting on the front line! Using the number of enemy heads killed as a standard for promotion to general, and rewarding ranks with military achievements, commoners can become nobles!”

Da Wei’s military rewards are quite similar to those in ancient Pre-Qin times.

Later on, Qin State became Strong Qin, unifying the Six Kingdoms, largely due to its domestic military policies!

”Commoners becoming nobles?” Cheng Dagang frowned, somewhat dumbfounded.

He had heard of commoners becoming generals before.

He, along with several other generals!

However, who among them did not put in enormous effort, and who wasn’t exceptionally talented?

Moreover, the path to becoming a general is paved with countless sacrifices, and the conditions are very strict. Yet, it seems so easy in Da Wei, completely different from the Da Ning Dynasty.

”Indeed, any commoner can become a noble!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

Although Da Ning Dynasty is located in the Central Plains and its military is not weak, commoners see no hope in becoming anything other than commoners for their lifetime!

Without hope, they naturally won’t give their all on the battlefield.

Furthermore, the internal hierarchy of the Da Ning Dynasty is so rigid that it can’t be compared to Da Wei.

”Shuangshuang, do you think we could implement such a system?” Cheng Dagang suddenly asked.

”I don’t know, maybe we can, maybe we can’t! But with the war approaching, implementing some reward system wouldn’t be a bad thing!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

Cheng Dagang stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction.

After sharing her thoughts with Cheng Dagang, Mu Shuangshuang gave him ample time to consider what she said.

As for her, she went to find Zheng Damao to discuss her plan for making a late-night snack.

Since it was a late-night snack, roasted lamb skewers and roasted beef skewers flashed through Mu Shuangshuang’s mind.

She ordered Zheng Damao to prepare the meat and find someone to make bamboo skewers, and cut the meat into small pieces.

Upon hearing Mu Shuangshuang’s instructions, Zheng Damao immediately sent someone to gather those items.

Once everything was ready, it was already an hour later.

Mu Shuangshuang seized the opportunity to marinate the meat that others in the kitchen had helped cut, using various sauces.

Time flew by, and it was nighttime when the soldiers finished their dinner.

The soldiers of the Vanguard Camp were rewarded with tonight’s snack.

As for the soldiers of the other two armies, if there were any more opportunities, they would be rewarded separately later.

After dinner, the soldiers waited for the night snack.

But after a long wait, nothing seemed to be happening.

Finally, there was some activity, and hearing it was beef and lamb, everyone’s enthusiasm dampened a bit.

Tonight, it was unclear if Wen Nantian did it on purpose.

The soldiers had no night training, and everyone waited in the square to see how Mu Shuangshuang would prepare the snack.

Lu Yuanfeng, having had dinner, came to find Mu Shuangshuang, intending to help her, but Mu Shuangshuang refused.

”It won’t take too long, just wait by the side for the food, you don’t need to work!”

As time passed, quite a few iron racks were set up in the square, with charcoal placed inside the racks.

Pans of marinated lamb and beef skewers were neatly arranged.

Mu Shuangshuang placed the lamb skewers over the fire, grilling dozens of them at a time.

Nearby, several kitchen soldiers followed, imitating Mu Shuangshuang’s actions. Whatever Mu Shuangshuang did, they did, too.

At first, there was no particular feeling, but gradually, as the aroma of the grilled meat spread, some people couldn’t resist anymore.

”Why does this smell so fragrant? I even doubt whether it’s really grilled beef and lamb!”

”Exactly, it’s unbearable. I feel like I smell chili powder. Can lamb be grilled this way?”

”I heard someone say this girl’s family owns a restaurant, she has some skills herself, and General Cheng is very fond of her cooking!”

The soldiers below quietly discussed Mu Shuangshuang.

As for Lu Daniu, who had cooked for them before, he was long forgotten.

But who could be remembered when Lu Daniu was ugly, had a low presence, and was mysterious in his whereabouts!?

Being forgotten seems logical!

After the first batch of lamb skewers was grilled, Mu Shuangshuang called the first batch of soldiers over to eat.

She deliberately took out some of the sauce she made and let them eat with it.

Since it was a snack, each soldier got three skewers.

But even if it’s just three skewers, for several hundred people, it amounts to thousands of skewers.

Fortunately, with so many in the kitchen willing to help Mu Shuangshuang.

The first batch who ate the lamb skewers was instantly captivated by the taste.

After finishing three skewers, they still craved more.

They looked over at Mu Shuangshuang, seeing her busy, and the soldiers of the Vanguard Camp could only swallow their saliva, wondering if there’d be another chance.

Once thousands of skewers were grilled, Mu Shuangshuang finally had some time to rest.

Because of her little cleverness, many people were asking her about the sauce.

Mu Shuangshuang only claimed it as a secret family recipe, saying it tastes even better with steamed buns and pasta!

When Mu Shuangshuang mentioned the steamed buns, someone inquired if they could be preserved for a long time as they wanted to buy.

Mu Shuangshuang certainly wouldn’t do business this way.

She just told them to purchase from her shop when they have the chance to go out.

The business, without realizing it, was half done.

The remaining half would depend on Wen Nantian!

Once everything related to grilling was cleaned up, it was already late.

Mu Shuangshuang needed to return to Xing City, which, unlike other places, hadn’t closed its city gates this late.

Of course, this was all to prevent delaying military affairs.

If something really happened, the soldiers could break through Xing City’s gates at any time and deliver the message immediately!

At night, Lu Yuanfeng was really worried about Mu Shuangshuang and Cheng Dagang going out, so he took a temporary leave to escort them out.

Considering Cheng Dagang’s safety, Wen Nantian gave him the green light, allowing Lu Yuanfeng to escort them and ensuring Cheng Dagang’s safety!

The three of them, under the cover of night, quickly headed into Xing City.

At Mu Shuangshuang’s residence in Xing City, Wang Guilan had prepared dinner, waited for Mu Shuangshuang all night, but didn’t see her.

Until it was completely dark, her two children were scared, and she had to gather everything to prepare for bed.

Just as she lay down, she heard some activity outside, so she put on some clothes and went out to check.

Seeing Mu Shuangshuang, Wang Guilan breathed a sigh of relief.

”Miss Shuangshuang, you’re finally back. I’ve left hot water for you; washing and other things are convenient!” Wang Guilan said.

”Thank you, Aunt Gui Lan. You go to sleep, I’ll take over now!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

”Alright!”

Wang Guilan went back to sleep, and Mu Shuangshuang arranged for the two men to rest.
