Chapter 77: Secret assassination, taking an unconventional approach
"Brother, those new guys selling bulk goods are all from Sujia Village. I asked around and it seems like Su Zhongfu brought the goods back. Brother, do you want to tell Zhongguo about this?"
After the brothers took over the business in the county, they were unable to expand throughout the county due to lack of manpower.
It is even more impossible for the towns below to make every county their peddlers.
This gave Su Zhongfu an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
"It's no use saying it. Shencheng is so big, how can Zhongguo prevent him from getting the goods?"
Although he said that, he also felt bad. Chen Yang and Hei Ye voluntarily gave up the market in Dongxing City to them because of Zhongguo's relationship. It was their incompetence that allowed others to benefit from it.
"We've almost finished stocking up on winter clothes, so it's hard for us to add more. So, let's stock up on spring clothes, and then go to your sister-in-law and brother-in-law's village to recruit some people. After all, the people in the county alone can't meet the needs of the town."
"They're closer to town, so it's easier to get them."
Li Baomin nodded. "Okay, I'll listen to you, big brother. But electrical appliances make more money than clothing. Big brother, how about we give the clothing business to my sister-in-law and my wife, and focus on the electrical appliances business?"
He had this idea a long time ago. Now most of the wholesale of garments is handled by the two of them and their parents, while their main focus is still on electrical appliances.
Li Baoguo smiled and said, "It's a good idea. If so, let's discuss it when we get home tonight. I'll call Zhongguo and tell him about what's going on here."
"Um."
It was only when Su Zhongguo received the call that he learned that Su Zhongfu had actually started a garment business.
But so what.
That's not what he cares about at all.
After hanging up the phone, he didn't go to the factory but went straight home.
Now, his biggest concern is his family.
When he came back, he saw the Taoist priest teaching Jiani. After they stopped, Su Zhongguo spoke, "The Su family has taken action."
When the Taoist priest heard this, he immediately started counting on his fingers.
After calculating, he smiled bitterly, "Now it seems that they can't wait any longer. They can't find a way to break through you, so they plan to destroy your luck and absorb your whole family together."
This method is very roundabout, but it must be said that it will be effective quickly.
If Su Zhongguo cannot defeat them, then even if his luck is lost, they will have the opportunity to absorb the luck of Su Zhongguo's family, which is better than defeating them one by one.
Su Zhongguo was anxious, "Master, is there any way?"
This time, the Taoist priest did not answer him, but turned his gaze to Su Jiani.
Su Jiani was confused. "Why are they looking at me? How can I know what they're doing?"
"Don't look at me, I'm scared, I'm still a child." She immediately waved her hands and shook her head.
Su Zhongguo looked at Jiani with a doting look on his face, then held her in his arms, "Jiani, it's up to you, the lucky star, to take over next. Tell Dad what they want to do next?"
Su Jiani's heart tightened. She always felt that things were beyond her prediction. How did her father know that she could know Su Jiayi's actions?
Do you think she really knows?
She actually knew this.
Ever since her eyes mutated, she can see through a person's life.
It’s like opening the third eye.
Of course, she really has the third eye now.
Then she stared at her father for a long time, and many images flashed through her mind. Until she saw Su Jiayi planning to find someone to kill her father in private, the images in her mind ended.
She gasped.
"Dad, you'd better not go out recently. Someone wants to harm you."
[You'll be beaten as soon as you step out of the house. If you fail once, they'll come back a second time. Late one night, you'll be beaten to death in an unknown alley. By the time we find you, you'll be gone.]
She was scared just thinking about it, with a trace of fear in her eyes, "Dad, you must listen to me."
She didn't know that her family could hear her thoughts. Although she didn't say it out loud, Su Zhongguo heard all her thoughts.
Su Zhongguo also broke out in a cold sweat. This was a case of resorting to force if the obvious approach didn't work.
If I find someone to kill me, then all my luck will be absorbed by them.
No, he wants to learn martial arts.
"Master, is it too late for me to learn martial arts now?" He didn't want to die. He hadn't seen his son get married, nor had he seen his daughter get married.
Although the Taoist priest was puzzled, since he could not figure out Su Jiani's fate, it was obvious that her ability was superior to his.
Although she is young, it cannot be denied that God has given her a back door.
"It's too late." When he was young, he didn't study hard, and now he regrets it.
"What should we do?" Su Zhongguo was anxious. He didn't want to die.
Li Guixiang was originally lying in the room, but she ran out when she heard her daughter's voice.
Before I even left the house, I tripped over my left foot and fell flat on my face.
Hearing the noise, Su Zhongguo hurried over to help the person up, "Guixiang, are you okay?"
Li Guixiang raised her head, her eyes full of worry for Su Zhongguo, "Can you just stay at home?" There was a pleading tone in her voice.
Su Zhongguo knew that she had heard her daughter's thoughts.
They couldn't hear their daughter's thoughts beyond a certain distance, but the living room was so close to the room, how could Guixiang not hear it?
"Okay, don't worry, I won't go out." After responding, he helped the person sit down on the sofa.
"Jiani, go get your mother a glass of water."
Su Jiani didn't think much about it, thinking that her mother was scared by the conversation she had just had with her father.
"oh."
She ran to pour water and then added a drop of spiritual milk to the water.
Li Guixiang has lost a lot of luck, and it will take more than a day or two to make it back.
At least half a month.
This is because she has a treasure. Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult to make up for it in this lifetime.
After drinking a cup of spiritual milk, Li Guixiang slowly calmed down, "Jiani, is there any way to save your father?"
Su Jiani didn't ask them why they believed her so much, but if it could save her family, there would be no harm in her revealing some of her skills.
"Yes, it's a fishing expedition."
But her words frightened Li Guixiang. It would be better for her to stay at home.
Su Jiani naturally saw the disapproval on her mother's face, so she said softly, "There's no such thing as a thief on guard for a thousand days. As long as we catch those bad guys, Dad will be fine."
I think it would cost Su Jiayi a lot to find someone to assassinate her father, and if it is destroyed, she will definitely suffer heavy losses.
It won't be so easy again.
Fortunately, my eldest brother and his family are not at home, otherwise it would be even more difficult to deal with.
[There's no way to dodge this, and it might even implicate my grandparents. Better to just face it head-on. At worst, I can ask the master to help out.]
Taoist Master Renkong had no idea that his disciple had arranged him to be Su Zhongguo's bodyguard.
You know, he did it too, because she was his apprentice.
After hearing her thoughts, the two immediately turned their gazes to the Taoist priest. Li Guixiang excitedly said, "Master, could you please protect Zhongguo for the next few days?"
She knew that the Taoist priest was not an ordinary person, but they were all family, so she just had to work hard.
The Taoist priest looked very sullen. "You are good at assigning work for me." He tapped Su Jiani's forehead and said, "Your studies must not be delayed while I'm not at home. Just write down these three books and I'll take care of this."
As he spoke, the Taoist priest took out three books out of thin air without any hesitation.
Su Jiani was not surprised. Taoism had the method of hiding the world in the sleeve. With the Taoist's cultivation level, it was not difficult to open up a small storage space.
"Deal." After taking the three books, Su Jiani smiled like a weasel who had successfully stolen a chicken, so proud.
Next, Su Zhongguo took the Taoist priest with him when he went out, and his work was not delayed, but the assassination that Jiani mentioned did not happen.
Just when he thought this was unreliable, he ran into it on his way home from get off work.
He really knows how to choose the time. Fortunately, he and the Taoist priest were well prepared.
"Who are you?" Looking at the people blocking him in front and behind, Su Zhongguo didn't show any fear on his face and asked the newcomers calmly.
Everyone who came was covered tightly, without a word of nonsense, and rushed directly towards Su Zhongguo.
It can be seen that they have done this many times and are all very skilled.
"Master, help me."
Su Zhongguo knows some martial arts skills, but he hasn't used them for many years, and now all he has left is instinct.
It's no problem to deal with one or two moves, but if it goes on for a long time, you will definitely lose your life.
"Here they are. I thought these rats could hide longer. I didn't expect them to be so impatient."
The appearance of the Taoist priest could not stop these people from being so ruthless.
It's just a matter of killing one more person.
The Taoist priest did not disappoint Su Zhongguo. He knocked down several people who blocked his way to the ground in just a few moves.
Just when Su Zhongguo wanted to go forward to check who these people were, the six people on the ground suddenly disappeared.
That's right, it dissipated.
"Don't look at them. These are people formed by the condensation of magical powers. They are not real people." The Taoist priest discovered this after the fight. However, he could tell from the fluctuations on their bodies that they were caused by the evil spirit.
"It seems that it is destined to be restless."
He just wanted to take in a disciple, but he didn't expect that the disciple had a bad conscience and plotted against him.
"Let's go home first."
The other side.
The system had finally used its luck to cleanse half of the soul power and conjured up a few powerful believers, but it didn't expect that they would disappear in just a few days.
I was really angry.
"Host, I failed to deal with Su Zhongguo's men. I need luck, otherwise you will lose the title of lucky girl."
The system is good at making amends. If it loses something, it wants to get it back from the host.
Zhenzhen is a calculating person.
"How could this happen? Didn't I just get the luck from Li Guixiang? And now it's gone?" Su Jiayi couldn't believe that the system could digest it so quickly.
"What can I do? It was you who told me to find someone to assassinate Su Zhongguo. I did as you said, but it failed. This is something no one wants to happen."
The system now understood that the luck of the eldest branch of the Su family was not so easy to absorb. If one wanted to obtain luck again, one had to use a different method.
"That man last time had good luck. He wanted to be recognized as his godparent. If you agree, as long as I'm connected to you, I can absorb his luck. I can't absorb all of it, but getting a third is better than what I have now."
It has been almost two years since it came to this world, and the half-spiritual power that it had cleansed with great difficulty is gone just like that. Who can it turn to for justice?
"The family behind that person is not easy to deal with. System, are you sure?" Su Jiayi was also worried. Mr. Zhang was not as simple as he seemed.
How could a family like theirs not know two powerful people?
"Don't do the same thing as you did to that Taoist priest. You won't be able to do anything to him. It won't be as simple as offending my uncle's family."
She cherishes her life very much, and will not gamble with it unless it is absolutely necessary, or unless she is 100% sure.
"Don't worry, there are only a few capable people in this world. Your luck is not that bad, you can meet them every time." The system comforted Su Jiayi, and there was temptation in its words.
As long as she agrees, its strength will be infinitely enhanced.
This system is like a zombie. As soon as it comes out of the coffin, it absorbs the blood of its closest relatives. After absorbing it, it can enhance its strength. Then it absorbs the blood of others to enhance its strength and become invincible.
As long as it slowly absorbs the Su family's luck, it will be able to control the host. Hehehe, by then this world will respect it.
Su Jiayi was finally moved.
At least she feels that she has a system and is the heroine in this world. Since she is the heroine, she must have the aura of a heroine.
It's just a little bit of luck. The whole world revolves around her. She absorbs a little of your luck because she thinks highly of you.
"Okay, next time Mr. Zhang brings this up, I'll agree. But I'll have to wait two days. Mr. Zhang is out for a meeting."
If the assassination fails, try again next time.
"Okay, just stay home quietly these days. If possible, it would be even better if you can ask your grandparents to go to Su Zhongguo's house and make a scene."
"It's useless to go if we can't break the defense." Su Jiayi didn't want to embarrass herself.
Besides, the people she knows now are all well-known and influential people. If others knew that her grandparents were so shameful, she would lose all her dignity.
After thinking about it, the system felt that what she said made sense. "Well, I don't know where the three brothers of the Su family are. Otherwise, it would be most convenient to start with the children."
Su Jiayi also asked her parents to find out, but they never found out.
The people in Lijia Village were very wary of their family, and no one would tell them even if they knew.
"I don't know, maybe it's related to that Taoist priest. System, is there still no news about my third uncle?"
Su Jiayi didn't expect that her third uncle would get lost. If her third uncle was still there, he could at least provide some supplies.
"Don't even think about it. He's lost all his energy and will be miserable for the rest of his life. I can't find him."
It also felt it was a pity, and should have absorbed his vitality earlier.
Yang Hongzhen covered her son's mouth in the room and listened to her daughter talking to herself outside. She felt frightened.
She found that her daughter was becoming more and more dangerous, and sometimes the way she looked at her was terrifying.
If possible, she would like to escape with her son.
But she didn't dare move, for fear that she would be discovered and her son would be harmed.
Just like now, she always avoids the whole family. Fortunately, they only have their daughter in their hearts, otherwise she might not be able to hide.
How could Yang Hongzhen not be afraid when her daughter, at such a young age, said she would kill someone, and the person she killed was her own uncle?
Although she didn't get along with her sister-in-law, it was just a trivial family matter and they hadn't become mortal enemies.
She was usually mean to her sister-in-law and always bullied her because her parents-in-law favored her and her husband, but she was not cruel enough to kill her.
How dare Jiayi?
There is another possibility, that this girl is not her daughter now, but has been possessed by some evil spirit.
