As soon as the two arrived at the foot of the mountain, they saw a search team holding torches starting to come down the mountain.
After waiting for a while, Qingniao brought two bandits to Zhao Hao.
"Master, fortunately you reminded me in time. These two people are on the mountain preparing to pass the message via carrier pigeons."
"We just happened to catch him."
"The news hasn't come out yet!"
As he spoke, Qingniao presented a palm-sized piece of cloth to Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao took it and looked at it. On the piece of cloth, there were some crooked words about smelting technology.
But it’s not complete.
Zhao Hao exhaled and said, "Bring him down for interrogation."
Bluebird nodded and ordered his men to take the two bandits away.
When I returned to the residence, Zheng Zhiqian was waiting.
Seeing the two men coming back, he hurriedly asked, "Brother Hao, have you caught the person?"
Zhao Hao nodded: "He has been caught, don't worry, there is no time to pass on the news."
Hearing him say this, Zheng Zhiqian immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he asked with some concern: "Brother Hao, are you okay after killing so many people?"
Zhao Hao asked, "What's the matter?"
Zheng Zhiqian shook his head: "These people can be considered miners in the mine after all."
"If this gets back to the Imperial Capital, I'm worried... someone will make a big fuss about it."
Zhao Hao said disdainfully: "Then I'd really like to see who will make a big fuss about it."
"Never mind that."
"After tonight, I believe the spies hiding in the dark will also be greatly deterred."
"But we must not take it lightly."
"Old Zheng, you have to be stricter with the workshop you manage."
Wang Mengyu on the side said, "Brother Hao, from what you said, there are spies?"
Zhao Hao rolled his eyes at him and said, "What do you think? I'm not too worried about Old Zheng. You better stay alert, kid."
"If the spies steal our technology, you'll see how I'll deal with you!"
Zhao Hao’s words made Wang Mengyu shudder.
He suddenly thought of the scene where Zhao Hao killed those bandits just now.
Suddenly, I felt a chill on my neck.
I touched it subconsciously.
Zhao Hao didn't know what this guy was thinking, so he said to the two of them, "Okay, it's getting late, go back and rest."
The two nodded and walked out of Zhao Hao's room.
Wang Mengyu whispered, "Old Zheng, you were lucky that you were not here just now."
"You didn't see it. Brother Hao just now was like a killing god."
"For those bandits, I just waved my hand and killed them one by one. I just waved my hand and killed them one by one."
"It made me tremble with fear."
"That's great. I probably won't be able to get a good night's sleep for a long time."
Zheng Zhiqian said: "Just like Brother Hao said, we must be alert and never let the spies succeed."
Wang Mengyu nodded: "Don't worry, I know what to do."
"Go back quickly and drink some wine with me, otherwise I'm afraid I really won't be able to sleep."
The next morning, Bluebird came to report on the interrogation of the two spies.
One of these two people was a spy developed by the Wu State before arriving at the mine.
The other one was developed into a spy by this person after arriving at the mine.
The two of them have delivered the message three times.
And they are all about smelting technology.
However, since they were using carrier pigeons, they had no paper or pen.
The message can only be written on the cloth.
However, no matter how thin the cloth is, it is still too thick compared to paper.
Therefore, they could only cut the cloth into small pieces.
Then pass it through multiple times.
It had been passed three times before, and last night was the fourth time.
According to their situation, the message needs to be passed on at least five times before it can be completely conveyed.
The blue bird said, "Sir, I have already examined the content of the message they delivered."
"That's all."
Zhao Hao took it, looked at it, and nodded slightly.
It is indeed smelting technology.
But only a rough process was written, and the real details were not included.
It seems that these spies only know the smelting process, but have not obtained the specific and important things.
Seeing this, Zhao Hao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This means that the people in the smelting workshop, especially the craftsmen, are at least safe.
If some of the craftsmen had become spies, the news written would not be what it is now.
Zhao Hao said, "Just in case, starting from today, we will have to leave someone on guard on the mountain every night."
"If you find something wrong, deal with it immediately."
Bluebird nodded: "Yes!"
Zhao Hao said: "Go and have a rest."
Next, Zhao Hao stayed in the mining area.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The entire mining area was airtight and no accidents occurred again.
Zhao Hao saw that it was almost done and he was familiar with the new process, so that night he summoned Wang Mengyu, Zheng Zhiqian, and Qingniao.
"Next, the mining area will be handed over to you."
"I will return to Qinzhou, and then to Beijing to report to His Majesty."
"This incident cannot be entirely blamed on you."
"It's mostly my problem."
"I didn't expect that the Wu Kingdom would make a fuss about this group of black cloud bandits."
"But this can only happen once."
"If it happens again, I won't be able to accept it so easily."
