Remember in One Second [800 ♂ Small/Say → Net
There was no pop-up window for free reading!
Lin Mengya shook her head in response to his fawning expression.
She couldn't blame him for this.
If Yijiang Hong was their enemy, Yu would not have missed out on her every move.
But Yu probably knew Yijiang Hong's plan from the beginning.
Apart from the necessary itinerary, Yu would not pay special attention to anything else about Yijiang Hong.
Sighing, she suddenly remembered that there were people on the mountain who knew the whereabouts of the Red Mistress.
After the Red Mistress passed away, her husbands had been on tenterhooks.
They were basically Dong Xiaolian's substitutes.
But among them, there were some who were in trouble and had no choice but to come up the mountain.
Previously, with the protection of the Red Mistress, they could still eat their fill.
But they would be in trouble in the future.
Therefore, when the second-in-command asked them to cooperate with Lin Mengya, these weak young men felt a little uneasy in their hearts.
Were they going to be sent to the woman in front of them?
A few of them were quick-witted and had already tidied up their appearances. They tried to seduce Lin Mengya with their eyes.
"Hmph!"
Long Tianhao, who had been following behind Lin Mengya, snorted coldly. The dancing male butterflies kept quiet out of fear and did not dare to act rashly again.
Seeing that they had quietened down, she said politely, "Actually, I invited all of you here in the hope that I can ask you something. If all of you can cooperate with me, I will give you a good home according to the Red Mistress's last wish. "
Actually, the Red Mistress only said one thing before she died, which was to let them come and go freely.
When these men heard this, they were instantly motivated.
"Just ask, I will definitely tell you everything I know."
"Alright, I would like to ask all of you what the Red Mistress's daily schedule has been all these years. Is there any regularity, but no one is allowed to spy on her behavior. "
Although the Red Mistress had never slept with them, she still chose a few people to accompany her every day to comfort herself.
Among the 16 people, other than the two who had died, there were two or three people who were favored by the Red Mistress.
Those people lowered their heads and thought for a moment. Then, someone carefully said under the cold gaze of the crippled man, "Red Boss, she, she usually doesn't hide anything from us. Every once in a while, she would go to the back mountain by herself. "
The second-in-charge had told her about it before.
But when Lin Mengya went there herself, she found that she could see the village at the foot of the mountain.
It was said that Dong Xiaolian and Jiang Hong's homes were there.
Thinking about it, Red Boss must have gone to lick her wounds.
She could not help but shake her head.
It was really not worth it to have been heartbroken for so many years for such a man.
As for the remaining people, they all began to talk about the whereabouts of the Red Boss.
Lin Mengya had inquired about most of it, but she had no clue at all.
Coincidentally, in the crowd, a quick-witted person looked around and quietly asked his companion, "Strange, why isn't Master Yuan here? Usually, isn't he the most doted on by the Head? "
Little did he know that Lin Mengya had heard his words.
She immediately asked, "Who is this Master Yuan you are talking about?"
"He came to seek refuge with the Red Boss. In fact, the time we have spent with the Head is less than half of the time he has."
"That's right, that's right. He's the one the First Master trusts the most. I have seen him coming out of the back mountain with the Head several times. "
Trapped in this small place
Suddenly, these men also had the idea of fighting for the Head.
Immediately, they revealed the whereabouts of Master Yuan.
Lin Mengya immediately sent someone to ask the second-in-charge. But the person who came said that he had seen Master Yuan this morning, but now he was nowhere to be found.
"Go and find him."
Long Tianhao immediately ordered his men.
Their men quickly searched the village. Finally, someone found the man's tracks in the back of the mountain.
"Bring him here. No, I will go personally! "
When they arrived at the back mountain, their men had already surrounded Master Yuan.
"What do you want?" Master Yuan asked warily.
And Lin Mengya saw that the bag in the man's hand was not light.
Don't be fooled by how flustered he appeared, but in reality, he was calm and composed.
"I just want to ask Master Yuan about something."
Master Yuan replied coldly, "The Head is very kind to me. I will not betray her."
"I don't want to hurt the Head — be careful!"
Just as she was speaking, Master Yuan suddenly threw out a lot of hidden weapons from his sleeves.
Long Tianhao had been prepared for this. His flexible whip rolled her back into his arms in an instant.
The surrounding guards immediately came forward, but Master Yuan's lightness skill was excellent, so he turned around and ran.
"Are you all right?"
Long Tianhao asked worriedly. She shook her head. It seemed that they had found the right person this time!
Master Yuan's martial arts were not weak. After a few rounds, it was hard to tell who was superior.
Just when he was about to escape, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side and hit him with a palm. He spat out blood and collapsed on the ground, almost losing his life.
"Lord Ling Ye!"
Those men asked respectfully.
Ling Ye nodded his head and personally dragged the man to the front of the couple.
Then, he stood behind Long Tianhao like a black demon god.
Suddenly, those people were in awe of them.
"Who, who are you?"
Master Yuan was frightened.
He was quite knowledgeable, but there were only one or two experts in this small place who could make him feel powerless to fight back.
"Answer the question honestly."
Long Tianhao subconsciously stroked the armrest of the wheelchair. His meaning was clear.
Be honest or die. There was no other choice.
"Just beat me to death! I won't say anything! "
That Young Master Yuan clenched his teeth and pretended to be righteous.
Lin Mengya glanced at him and then took his parcel.
There were only a few account books in it.
She flipped through them and found that she could not understand them at all.
At this moment, Xiao Yao suddenly said, "This is a secret code. Master, can you crack it now?"
How could she forget that she had a "little expert"!
She immediately agreed to crack it. About ten seconds later, the system cracked it successfully.
"Master, please look."
Then, every line of the account book was accompanied by the System's annotations. It was very convenient.
"You're the best."
Xiao Yao, who was praised, said modestly, "This is what I should do!"
Lin Mengya smiled and continued to read, but her frown deepened.
"Yu, come and take a look."
She called Long Tianhao aside.
The latter couldn't understand it either, so she patiently explained, "This account book records the transactions between a certain person and the two leaders of the Ten Evil Stronghold.
However, other than some resources, there are also a lot of iron ores here. "
Iron ore was one of the most important resources in the era of cold weapons.
The reason why the State of Wei was in such a chaotic state was because all the iron mines were controlled by the aristocratic families.
With iron ore, they would have weapons, and they would be able to protect their territory from being invaded.
But what was strange was that she had previously studied the samples of iron ore brought back from various places by the Chamber of Commerce. She found that although the quality of the iron ore was uneven, there was no fine iron ore of the highest quality.
Unless there was a qualitative leap in smelting technology, it would be difficult for the aristocratic families to have the strength to unify the world.
But even so, the aristocratic families still controlled the iron ore very strictly.
But she had never heard of any iron ore or other resources in this place.
Where did the iron ore of the Ten Evil Stronghold come from?
"The annual output of the nearest iron ore mine is less than half of what is recorded in this account book."
There was some doubt in Long Tianhao's voice.
Lin Mengya flipped through the account book again, and found that other than iron ore, there were also transactions of coal and other mineral resources.
"Even if the big Chamber of Commerce were to do this, they wouldn't be able to produce this amount in a year. Moreover, this would require a huge amount of money. But the Ten Evil Stronghold doesn't have that much money. "
In business, the annual output of goods from various places was recorded in her mind.
Especially this kind of ore.
Other than supplying for their own use, only a small part of the ore could be sold, and the quality and quantity could not be guaranteed.
Long Tianhao pursed his lips and thought for a while before he spoke.
"What if they don't sell it, but mine it themselves?"
"Then it's possible. But how did they manage to hide such a large amount of ore from others? "
Both of them had deep doubts in their hearts.
However, Childe Yuan refused to say anything, and he even fainted because he was too emotional.
Although she could guarantee his life if she was there.
But it was still a problem to pry open his mouth.
She had many ways to extort a confession, but this was a serious matter, and she had only found an insider now.
It was inevitable that her hands and feet were tied.
Two days later, the husband and wife, who were at their wits' end, received an invitation from the Black Tiger Stronghold.
This time, Wu Ying personally led some men to fetch Lin Mengya.
Although Long Tianhao was very reluctant, he had already promised Mr. Huo, so he reluctantly agreed.
What was more infuriating was that when he expressed his wish to go with them, he was rejected by Wu Ying, who was a smiling tiger.
Long Tianhao, who was very upset, could only watch his wife leave.
He turned around and ordered his subordinates to keep an eye on Madam. They must not let that person with ill intentions get close to her!
After many days, when she appeared in the Black Tiger Stronghold again, she felt a little different.
"She's coming! Quick, come out and welcome Miss Song! "
Sister-in-law Zhu's enthusiastic and loud voice immediately made her feel relieved.
After a while, more than a dozen women in the stronghold rushed out and surrounded her.
"Miss Song, you're finally back!"
"We've been waiting for you!"
"This time, you have to stay for a few more days, so that everyone can thank you!"
