Chapter 624 Konbang Kingdom
Chapter 624 Konbang Kingdom
Widow Wang ran two miles but still didn't dare look back.
She wanted to slap herself twice - you were so greedy for this little rent.
These bad guys are living in her house again!
It turned out that she was sweeping the house, but she quietly opened the window on the downwind side.
In the past, her mother-in-law liked to say bad things about her to her husband, so she would secretly open the window and eavesdrop while she was working.
So although she had a lot of work to do every day, she knew all the secrets in the family and who said bad things about her.
When the husband saw that the old woman was sick, he wanted to sell Xiaohua to use the money for her medical treatment.
After overhearing this, Widow Wang secretly changed her mother-in-law's medicine that night so that she would not live to see the time to sell the flowers.
This was the only bad thing she had done in her life, but she did not regret it.
But this made her even more determined to eavesdrop.
The last time the tenants came, it was her first time, and she didn't dare to eavesdrop for fear of being discovered.
Unexpectedly, she suffered a great loss. This time, she quietly raised the window.
Hearing this, she was almost scared to death.
Although Widow Wang didn't understand much, she could tell that they spoke in a condescending manner and that they wanted to make a lot of money from the villagers.
Anyway, this group of people are not good people!
Widow Wang's psychological quality was also tempered by experience. She immediately adjusted her state of mind and finished cleaning the house.
Only then did he take the opportunity to buy meat and run out for his life!
Woohoo, run slower, she's going to hurt us again!
Doctor Wu and others were lying in the house, dreaming of making a fortune, when they were caught by soldiers and officers.
Tuo Heqi received news from his subordinates that a group of people had been arrested and a large amount of hibiscus cream had been seized. He was so shocked and confused.
No, he just received a secret order from the Emperor, asking him to trace the origin of Hibiscus Cream.
I just gave the instructions to a few trusted confidants last night, and one of them was captured so easily today?
This made Tuo Heqi, who had been unlucky for a long time, a little bit unbelievable - could there be a trick here?
In other words, this good luck could not have been gained at the cost of his good luck in the next ten years?
After all, he was lucky enough to take over the position of the Nine Gates Admiral last time, but how many unfortunate things happened to him afterwards?
Things that are grown with luck need to be conserved!
However, after struggling in his heart for a long time, Tuo Heqi still couldn't resist the temptation of making great achievements, and immediately went to meet his subordinate Saiqi.
Saiqi has been under his command for many years. He is good at doing things and is from the Hesheli clan, a prominent family, so he is happy to promote him.
Seeing that he had accomplished such a great feat in just one day, he patted his shoulder and laughed heartily: "Good boy, you're really good. You caught the man right away?"
Saiqi said modestly: "It's really not my subordinates' credit. Someone reported that there are people hiding in the village."
"I thought some of the gang members had revived, so I went over there overnight."
"I didn't expect to find out what the adults asked me to check yesterday."
Tuo Heqi never thought that there would be such a thing, but this also shows that Saiqi is dedicated to his work.
Otherwise, even if someone reported it, there would be no need for him to personally go and inquire about such a small matter at night.
If he didn't go, not everyone would know about the Hibiscus Cream, and it might have been taken away by this group of people.
After He Qi praised her a few times, he also instructed her, "That village woman is quite good. Give her more rewards."
Widow Wang was lucky in disguise. She received a large reward and left with a light-hearted look on her face.
But it was completely different for Doctor Wu and the others. They were being beaten like a small whip made of salt water.
Several people were tried separately. The young apprentices could not withstand the whipping at all and confessed everything in a hurry.
But the old man was very stubborn and insisted that he was just selling medicine to make money.
After the interrogation, Saiqi frowned and said, "These apprentices were all bought by this old man along the way."
"When I bought it, they said it was to teach them medical skills, so I didn't charge much."
"But they just do odd jobs for him. They don't know where his medicine comes from or how he treats people."
"And this old man insisted that he was only making money from making medicine, and that this medicine wouldn't kill anyone..."
Tuo Heqi intuitively felt that something was wrong: "If he can make money, just do it himself. Why does he have so many apprentices?"
"They said they wanted to pass it down and sell it all over the country," Saiqi said. "If the Emperor hadn't personally warned us that this medicine was problematic, we wouldn't have realized it was poison."
"If we can't find out the answer, and just leave it to His Majesty, isn't that..." Tuoheqi felt that this was not a good idea.
This is supposed to be a great achievement, but if it is handed in halfway, it will be wasted several times.
But these little disciples really don’t know anything, and it’s not that they were too cruel. If they beat someone to death, there would be no way to get any information from them.
He Qi led everyone to endure them for several days, and he himself couldn't stand it anymore, but still didn't get a single word out of them.
Even when Saiqi was eating, he stared at everyone's confessions.
As he looked, he focused on the first question they had when they were captured - their names.
He pointed at the names of Doctor Wu and Wu Cai and said, "They both have the surname Wu, could there be any connection?!"
Tuo Heqi said: "Didn't Wu Cai also buy it in Henan? It must be a coincidence."
"No, this old man doesn't even call the apprentices he bought by their full names," Saiqi stood up suddenly.
"But they also have surnames, they just don't use them." Tuo Heqi pointed at the names of other people.
In their confessions, they stated that they had names, but they called others by nicknames.
Only Wu Cai was called Wu Cai in his own statement and in the confessions of others.
Saiqi said: "No, that's not the case. The old man never asks others what their names are."
"Wu Cai isn't a likable person either. There's no way he'll be an exception."
"Then there is only one possibility, he is with the old man."
"Then he is lying?!" Tuo Heqi felt that it made some sense.
Everyone stopped eating and turned their attention to Wu Cai.
After three days and three nights without sleep, Wu Cai finally couldn't bear it anymore, revealed his flaws, and had to confess.
Fourth Master Lin Mingyan received the news on the same day that Old Man Wu and Wu Cai were actually from Gongbang.
The Konbaung Kingdom is modern-day Myanmar, where opium poppies are grown in abundance and have been used to make drugs for a long time.
The surname Wu was the aristocratic surname of the Konbaung Kingdom.
What does the Konbaung Kingdom want to do?
