Through Time Chapter 127

“Found it!?”

Hearing the news, Zhao Xie stood up straight away!

“Yesterday, one of our merchant caravans saw a line of a dozen teenagers of about the same age outside the county town, and it was very eye-catching.”

“Just followed them inside a farmhouse, it should be them.”

Uncle Shou returned.

“Good!”

A fierce glint appeared in Zhao Xie’s eyes as

“Gather the men and tell Zhao Jie to bring them back! Get ready, I want that Zhao Lang to not survive the night!”

At this time, Shou Bo hurriedly said that

“My lord, wait, this…”

Zhao Xie shook his head and interrupted.

“Uncle Shou I have made up my mind, and this is not all about personal revenge.”

“Zhao Lang has now taken the salt farm I want, and without it, many things are always a bit inconvenient.”

Uncle Shou returned.

“My old slave is not trying to stop you, it’s just that word has come from the merchant side that the farmhouse has high walls and a large courtyard, and is quite heavily guarded.”

“And I saw nearly a hundred servants training neatly this morning, so I’m afraid it will be difficult to take it down.”

“Once time has passed, I’m afraid that it will also attract the Qin army.”

Hearing these words, Zhao Xie frowned at once.

Of course he knew what kind of people those servants were, he had seen the teenagers training.

It just seemed that his desire for revenge was about to be dashed when he did so.

“It’s a pity that the group of fishermen are indisputable, otherwise they would have destroyed the salt farm and you wouldn’t have to worry so much, my lord.”

Uncle Shou spoke at this time.

Zhao Xie’s eyes suddenly lit up and he said that

“Have the caravan send a letter to the Hu people, and tell them that there is a fat sheep here, and that group of people will surely be interested.”

“We can take care of the transport, make a few more trips and transport nearly a hundred people in, it will be enough to deal with a small farmhouse anyhow.”

“The time to launch it is set for the day of my wedding, send an invitation to all the officials and gentry around the county.”

“I want him to be alone by then! Even if he goes to the county capital to ask for help, it will be too late!”

But Uncle Shou froze for a moment and said that

“My lord, this using a foreigner to…”

Zhao Xie said coldly, and

“What’s wrong with borrowing foreign power to get rid of the enemy without losing a single cent of our own?”

“This…”

“The matter is settled,”

Zhao Xie said, waving his hand.

“How are things going with the artisan slaves? We need to get the men together as soon as possible, the Goguryeo side is already pressing for them.”

Shou Bo returned and

“Gongzi Jie has already arrested quite a few artisans in the past two days, but the methods are a bit drastic, and recently, on the county side, they all seem to be investigating a bit more harshly.”

Zhao Xie coldly to.

“Since this is already the case, then tell him to hold on tighter, don’t let his identity slip, and kill those who deserve it!”

Hearing these words, Shou Bo hesitated and said that

“Your Excellency, this place is mostly populated by the people of my former country, so I’m afraid that such a course of action will hurt public opinion in the future…”

Zhao Xie looked coldly at Shou Bo.

“The people of this place are now the people of Qin!”

Shou Bo was instantly silent.

Zhao Xie frowned and said.

“Uncle Shou you are getting old and it has been hard on you all these years, after I get married, you should go back to your hometown to enjoy your retirement.”

A moment of consternation flashed across Shou Bo’s face.

“Gongzi rest, old slave I… As you command.”

Zhao Xie waved his hand, and Shou Bo left in dismay.

Soon, someone ran towards the outskirts of the city, to a remote manor.

At the stately home, Zhao Jie listened to the news brought by his servant and grinned broadly, saying

“Go and tell my big brother that I will certainly have all the slaves before the wedding date, and that there will be no delay for him and his sister-in-law.”

When the servant who had delivered the message had gone, Zhao Jie said to his guards that

“All cheer up, scout out all the situation during the day, and capture the men at night!”

“As you have heard, do things cleanly, and kill all those who deserve to be killed.”

“Hmph, I told you before, these people, who didn’t contribute to the resistance against the Qin, should have died a long time ago!”

All the guards responded in unison at once, and one of the guards beside him hesitated and said that

“My lord, if we do this, I’m afraid we’ll attract the attention of that female flying thief.”

A fierce light appeared in Zhao Jie’s eyes, touched the thing prepared in his arms and said

“I’m just afraid that she won’t come!”

“This time, I’ll make that b*tch taste what it’s like to make a fool of herself in public too!”

He simply couldn’t forget what happened last time, and kept thinking of revenge!

As for his elder brother’s words, it wasn’t the first time he had taken them as a deaf ear.

At this moment, inside another farmhouse.

“Ah chit!”

The Holy Virgin frowned and sneezed, then addressed the farmer before her, saying

“Someone from the Zhao family wants to interview me?”

The peasant returned that

“Exactly, they have news from several places, Holy Maiden, would you like to meet with them?”

The Holy Virgin shook her head and

“What do I have to talk to them about.”

“Besides, with the recent appearance of several artisans being taken by force, how can I have time to deal with them.”

“Go and talk to them, and ask them not to do evil, and I will not trouble them.”

At once the peasant led the way and left.

On the side, however, Aryan at that moment looked at the farmer’s back as he left, pondering.

“A-liang, you have a better brain, let’s go to the city’s slave marketplace in the next two days and find out who is doing it.”

Ah Liang nodded his head, however, as his heart stirred.

“Yes, Holy Maiden.”

Two days later, outside Xianyang City, the Zhao Family Estate.

A fast horse enters the manor quickly and

“Uncle Fu! The Duke has returned with a letter!”

Uncle Fu was talking to Wang Tiezhu at that moment.

“Everything is just as my gongzi asked for, don’t worry about the money.”

Hearing the news, he hurriedly took the letter parcel over.

Only to find that there were several letters of cloth and silk inside.

“Deliver this letter to Asu and the others.”

“This is for Elder Tian, Mr. Kong, and Mr. Wang.”

“Hmm? This is… for me.”

Fubuki froze for a moment, a kind smile on his face.

After seeing a specially sealed letter, he hastened to say that

“Prepare the horses! I’m going out.”

Having said this, he hurried away.

When Uncle Fu left, Wang Tiezhu buttoned his head and had to return to the original courtyard as well.

A few people, Vantage and Shopkeeper Liu, were discussing something in the courtyard, and when they saw Wang Tiezhu, they couldn’t help but ask

“Tiezhu, aren’t you going to the construction site with Uncle Fu today?”

Wang Tiezhu returned and

“Just now a letter came from Gongzi Lang’s side, and Uncle Fu left in a hurry.”

Shopkeeper Liu nodded in understanding, and then went on to speak to Vantage that

“Vantage, we, the sons of the Mo family, have gathered here by the hundreds, even the ones chopping wood on the construction site are all outlying sons.”

“But after so many days, there is not even a shadow of that wizened genius to be found.”

Vantage also sighed and pointed to the table on which the paper was placed.

“For so many days, the old man has been studying this wondrous object, but has not made the slightest progress.”

“So…”

Vantage took out the Moji jade pendant at this point, and said with a determined expression that

“Pass on, Vantage’s order! Extend the search! No matter what, we must find that wizard!”

The other sons of the Mo family rose at once to respond to the

“Yes! Vantage!”

All of them left to pass on the order, but at this moment, Vantage looked at the paper on the table, and a thought came to his mind that

“If I give this strange object to Gongzi Lang, I wonder if he can decipher the mysteries of it?”
