Since Liu Yuru wanted to raise food, Luo Zishang decided to help her. The letter Liu Yuru received was from Ye Shi'an, and she believed that he must have some difficulties, so he was forced to work for Wang Shanquan. Ye Shi'an learned that she wanted to raise food, so he said he could help her. After Shen Ming inquired, he learned that Wang Shanquan became the local emperor in Yuzhou, and it was not enough to copy the homes of many rich merchants. The only good business is Wang Shanquan's Shanji Bank, which specializes in lending usury. Liu Yuru came up with a plan, asking Shen Ming to bring some people to pretend to be rich merchants from all over the country to buy grain from various grain shops, while Yin Hong put half of the money they brought into Shanji Bank.

Ye Shian mediated among them, advocating that all the money in the account should be loaned out. He had a good reason, and no one else could refute it. The price of grain in this state, fueled by Ye Shi'an, is increasing day by day, and those pretending to be rich merchants from all over the world have gone to Shanji Bank to borrow money to buy grain. Wang Shanquan was very happy and felt that his bank was going crazy with money. Luo Zishang played a good game of chess in the dark. He asked people to order all the big and small shops around Yuzhou to participate in fried grains, stock up when they rose, and sell them when they fell. With the help of many people, the price of grain in Yuzhou has risen to twelve taels and one stone. Liu Yuru ordered Shen Ming to sell all the grain that he had stockpiled before, and the grain merchants in Yuzhou were forced to lower their prices one after another. In a few days, the price was reduced to one or two stones.

But at this price, the people in Mizhou still couldn't afford it, so Liu Yuru decided to wait another three days. Three days later, the grain in Yuzhou dropped to 600 yuan a stone, and many people rushed to buy grain. When the time was right, Liu Yuru asked them to collect grain, while Yinhong went to take out the money stored in Shanji Bank. Ye Shi'an quietly reminded those shopkeepers who kept their money in Shanji Bank, causing them to withdraw money to cash out one after another. And Shanji Bank has closed down because it cannot withstand the run on by a large number of depositors. Wang Shanquan ordered people to find Boss Shen who dumped the grain, and sent people to invite Luo Zishang back. The two brothers and sisters Ye Shian and Ye Yun can't go anywhere now, Liu Yuru decided to stay for the time being and help them escape.

Su Wan didn't die, when Liu Yuru saw her mother again, she ran to hug her mother and cried loudly. Su Wan said that she was dying after falling off the cliff, and it was Ye Shi'an who saved her. Although Ye Yun was forced to commit herself to Wang Shanquan, she still refused to let go of her airs. Xifeng reminded her that it was not Ye Yun's commitment, that's why Wang Shanquan spared Ye Shian's life. She also told Ye Yun that there are only two ways for her to go now, one is to surrender to Wang Shanquan, learn to flatter her, and firmly control Wang Shanquan's favor in the palm of her hand; the other is to kill herself and break Ye Shian's bondage . Ye Yun wanted to commit suicide, but the chestnut cake sent by Ye Shi'an saved her life, so she had an excellent idea in her heart.

That night, Liu Yuru and Ye Shian waited at Changfeng Ferry, and Shen Ming went to rescue Ye Yun. Ye Yun flattered Wang Shanquan, and Wang Shanquan thought she had finally thought about it, so he put down his guard against her. Ye Yun took advantage of this opportunity and killed him with a hairpin. Mrs. Xifeng felt sorry for her and gave her a chance to escape. The officers and soldiers chased after him very quickly, Ye Yun was quickly stopped, Shen Ming appeared in time to kill these officers and soldiers, and took out the hairpin. From this, Ye Yun recognized that he was sent by Liu Yuru, and she was not afraid immediately.
