Tang Zhi was wearing a gentle smile, lightly clapping his hands.

“Clap, clap, clap, clap”

The people around the table stared at Tang Zhi’s reaction, daring not to rashly make any judgment. They turned their focus onto Tang Cunfu’s face, hoping he could produce some tangible evidence.

Tang Cunfu remained unmoved, stood up straight, and stated excitedly, “Why is the Wancheng Treasure Ship not ready to set sail? Why are the clan’s craftsmen building a great number of ice ships? Why did the foundry receive an order for ten thousand pieces of ice-breaking weaponry?”

“And what about the wooden fortresses being built outside Xiling City and the fresh food supply of a massive seven hundred thousand tons! Is all this also for trade?”

There were no fools present at the meeting. If they still could not understand Tang Cunfu’s words, they wouldn’t be occupying high positions. Yet, the biggest question still remained unresolved.

“Assuming that all this preparation is to accommodate a large number of refugees, where will such a significant number of refugees come from?” asked Elder Tang Gaomin.

Tang Cunfu, looking at the still smiling face of Tang Zhi, snorted: “The biggest flood in a hundred years has inundated Chengzhou, covering eight hundred miles in water. I guess this news will be widespread in Xiling by the end of the year.”

“Because my wife is from the Xue family in Chengzhou, I received the information in August. Yet our respected clan leader began preparing for this significant event as early as April. Admirable! Admirable!”

The smile finally left Tang Zhi’s face, replaced not by the seriousness Tang

Cunfu expected, but rather a look of profound admiration.

He sat up straight and asked Tang Cunfu, “Did you deduce all this from a single family letter?”
