The middle-aged fat man put down his chopsticks and looked at his two sons, "If we act faster, we don't have to report it at all. That place is secret and the mineral vein is not very large.
The emperor is far away, and I have the final say in this place!"
He looked at his eldest son with some disdain, "Why are you so cowardly? We have people above us."
Then he looked at his two sons with a warning, "Also, don't tell your mother about the iron mine. Do you understand?"
The eldest son has gotten used to being disliked and is not sad.
It's just that his feelings have always been quite accurate. His father and brother have always been domineering and have done a lot of bad things. His persuasion is ineffective and there is nothing he can do.
Lately, his eyelids have been twitching violently from time to time!
He was very scared. If people knew about the iron mine, their family might be in danger.
The young fat man nodded indifferently, "Don't worry, Dad, I know about this. The fewer people who know, the safer it is. I will handle it."
Then he turned his head and looked to the other side, "As long as big brother doesn't get soft-hearted, it's fine."
After being specially reminded by his father and second brother, he still knew the seriousness of the matter. Although he did not agree with his father and second brother's actions, he could not bear to see his family being hurt.
So, under the gaze of the two people, he nodded seriously.
"Okay, got it."
Jiang Ling, who was above their heads, probably understood that these three people were Wang Shisheng and his two sons. Only Wang Shisheng and his second son were directly involved in the iron mine affairs. The eldest son did not participate, but knew what they did.
As for what Wang Shisheng said about them having someone above them, Jiang Ling didn't care at all.
As the saying goes, the emperor is far away and the sky is high. Who knows what happened in Danya County? Even if we know, it is of no use to put out a nearby fire.
After getting the important information, Jiang Ling no longer needed to stay here and watch them eat.
Then, with a "whoosh" sound, it flew away, leaving only a gust of wind.
The three people who were eating felt a chill on their backs.
I thought to myself: the weather is getting colder, it's time to put on more clothes.
Jiang Ling quickly flew out of the County Lady's Mansion and returned to the inn. He saw that everyone had returned to the inn and was busy with their own things.
As soon as he arrived at the inner courtyard of the inn, Shen Yinyun ran over.
"Brother, where have you been? We've been back for a long time. Come and see what I bought." He pulled Jiang Ling's sleeve and walked inside.
"I went to the county lady's mansion. Did you buy the supplies for building a greenhouse?" Jiang Ling asked curiously.
“Of course, I’m lucky that this place actually has it.
Look, this is oil paper, which can be supported by a bamboo pole or wooden stick.
As for thin films, there's definitely none here, and they can't be researched." Shen Yinyun was holding a large bundle of oil paper he'd bought from the grocery store. This was the material they used to make oil paper umbrellas, and it was quite thin.
Jiang Ling touched it and nodded, "It can be used."
After receiving Jiang Ling's approval, Shen Yinyun felt relieved. It was worth it for him to run all over Danya County and almost break his legs.
"By the way, what information did you find out when you went to the County Lord's Mansion?"
Jiang Ling was about to speak when he saw Yue Qianli and Gu Chenfeng coming back from outside. So he decided to talk to them together. He would leave the killing to them and moving the warehouse would be his job.
"It's just right that you're back. I'll tell you about the County Lord's Mansion."
Yue Qianli put the little cub on the ground, patted his butt, and let him go play with Jiang Hao.
As soon as Jiang Hao heard this, he knew that the adults were going to talk about serious matters, so he obediently took the little kid to the kitchen. Only food could divert the little kid's attention, otherwise it would be difficult to coax him.
After the two children left, the four of them sat down in the yard.
"I just went to the county lord's house, and they were having dinner.
The information I received was that only Wang Shisheng and his two sons knew about the iron mine.
Moreover, Wang Shisheng also said that they have someone above them, but he did not say who it is. Of course, this is not the issue we are concerned about.
Also, they did not report the iron mine matter to their superiors!
Isn't that perfect? Reporting it would definitely cause more trouble for us.
So, we have to thank Wang Shisheng for not reporting it.
Greed makes people bold, and arrogance leads to death!
Wang Shisheng said that the emperor is far away and no one above would know about it even if he finished mining the iron mine.
Then I thought, he was right, the emperor is far away, even if Wang Shi is dead or alive, and the iron mine is mined, no one above will know about it!
What do you think?
Jiang Ling rattled off a long list of information and opinions that he knew.
After listening, Shen Yinyun was the first to raise his hand and responded: "Brother, you are right, I absolutely support you!
Officials who oppress the people and disregard the lives of others deserve to die. Let us just consider ourselves as heroes and righteous men, ridding the people of this evil!"
Shen Yinyun said excitedly that modern people all have a dream of being a hero and doing justice.
Now that he has this opportunity, he will not miss it. After all, they are killing people who deserve to die.
Although there are imperial laws and underworld rules here, officials almost always protect each other. People with strong connections and backing can live freely no matter how many people they kill or how serious their crimes are.
So, since they have encountered this, let's just consider it as doing a good deed every day. We may not be able to help everyone, but we can help a group of people or a county.
Whether there will be another blood-sucking official in the future is none of their business. They are too far away to see or do anything about it.
Hearing Shen Yinyun's excited and somewhat silly tone, Jiang Ling suddenly laughed. They were indeed modern people, all single-celled organisms.
Looking at the other two locals, they were the ones who needed to do it anyway.
Gu Chenfeng spoke first. Since Shen Yinyun had such an idea, he would definitely do it. Anyway, Wang Shisheng was not innocent, and his two sons were not innocent either.
"Okay, I agree with Xiaoyun. If we want to take over the iron mine, the three of them must die. Only the dead can keep the secret.
Of course, when they harm the lives of ordinary people, they are no longer innocent."
Yue Qianli had no other opinions and nodded.
"Well, just as you said."
Thus, the fate of Wang Shisheng and the other two was decided during their conversation.
“In the early morning, after everyone has fallen asleep, go and deal with these three people.
Then, tomorrow morning, while the County Lord's Mansion is in chaos, we will quickly leave the city and head to Kuyao Village."
After listening to Jiang Ling's arrangements, the three nodded.
In the middle of the night, the entire Danya County fell into silence.
However, the two children who were sleeping so soundly in the inner courtyard of the inn, as well as Xu Wenzhi's wife and two children, woke everyone else up instantly.
The conversation between the four people in the afternoon did not avoid them. As secret guards of Yue Qianli, they had to be prepared at all times.
Although the master did not order them to go this time.
However, the master and the young master are going out, so they are responsible for the safety of the rest of the people.
Especially the young master.
