Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

Chapter 224 What a pity

Everyone looks at you and I say a word.

Although these Nanyang landlords and nobles were greedy for money, they had no intention of risking their lives.

Now that Mr. Mo is well-known, and at this time when South Korea is falling, it is obviously not a smart decision to rashly enmity with a top noble of the victorious Qin Kingdom at this time.

Before, they didn't know that Mr. Mo was behind the [Xiong Chu Mo Chamber of Commerce], so they sent people to assassinate Xiong Da.

I found out later.

That day, several nobles who had participated in the operation decided to withdraw from the next plan.

"It doesn't matter, I have already solved your concerns."

While everyone was discussing, they heard the white-haired old man in the front row suddenly say: "As long as we don't harm those people's lives in our next actions, there will be trouble from that Lord Shengping, and someone will help." We blocked it."

"Um?"

Hearing the white-haired old man speak, the others immediately cast surprised glances.

"Old Patriarch Huang means..."

"Don't forget, the Qin State does not only have one of its top dignitaries, Mr. Shengping. I just happened to get on a line recently, and now South Korea has fallen. If we can get on that boat, maybe I might take it a step further when I get the chance.”

The white-haired old man stroked his white beard under his chin, smiled and spoke confidently.

Everyone's eyes lit up slightly.

"How does Mr. Huang contact the powerful people in Qin?"

It's no wonder that some people have this question, because although these local nobles have great power in the local area, even the local county governors often need to be restrained by them.

But another meaning of imperial power not going to the countryside often means that the countryside does not go to the city.

These local clans are local snakes, but once they leave their own territory, they are just ordinary deadbeats.

Although it is not completely impossible.

Don't forget it.

Nanyang was still a territory of South Korea more than half a month ago.

Even if their local clans have the power to intervene in the royal power, it is only the royal power of South Korea and has nothing to do with the Qin State.

And now, not long after Nanyang fell, the Huang family actually contacted the powerful people of Qin. How could they not be surprised?

Facing the man's question, the white-haired old man laughed suddenly, but did not answer directly. He just replied: "That Lord Shengping is still too young after all. Since he came to power, he has offended many Qin countries." A powerful person. Now in the entire Qin Kingdom, is there more than one person who wants him dead?"

The other seven people looked thoughtful.

In fact, they had heard about everything that Lord Mo had done in the Qin State during this period. Not to mention other things, the hundreds of newly built academies in Hanzhong were so loud that all the scholars and schools in the seven countries were moved by the news. .

With such a big movement, it would be difficult for them not to know what happened.

"I wonder which master of the Qin Kingdom Mr. Huang is contacting?"

Someone couldn't help but ask.

The white-haired old man opened his mouth and was about to answer, but at this moment, he heard a voice suddenly coming from above:

"Actually, I also want to know this question. I wonder if Mr. Huang, Mr. Huang, can let me listen to it together?"

The sudden words instantly caused the expressions of the eight people present to change.

"who?"

"Whoever breaks into this place without permission should get out of here."

"Come here, where are the guards?"

Everyone spoke loudly, but no matter what noise they made, no guard walked into the lobby outside the door, only pieces of dark feathers fell from the sky.

Afterwards, with a ghostly afterimage flickering, Black Feather quietly appeared in the center of the lobby.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised and he said: "No need to shout, noble lords, your guards will never come in...never."

As Kuroyu finished speaking, the eyelids of the eight people in the lobby twitched subconsciously.

The other party's words just revealed at least three pieces of information.

First, the opponent is very powerful. After all, they are among the top landlords and nobles in Nanyang. How could they not bring a few high-quality guards with them when traveling late at night.

But now their eight bodyguards were quietly dealt with, without even a hint of reminder being issued, which is enough to imagine how superb the opponent's martial arts are.

Second, the other party did not break in accidentally. They obviously knew their identity before coming. In other words, the other party came here for them.

Third, the other party is not kind.

After judging the current situation in an instant, the eight people calmed down from their panic.

Anyway.

These people are also the heads of major families, and they still have this mentality.

"My friend, what's the point of visiting my humble home late at night? If you're not in a hurry, why don't you sit down and have a drink first?"

The white-haired old man gathered his emotions, then slowly raised a wine glass towards Black Feather and said.

"Hehe~~ There's no need to drink. Everyone's time is very tight, so we won't waste time. Let's get straight to the point! I have only one purpose in coming here tonight, which is to find some explanations."

"Explanation? I wonder what explanation this friend wants to ask for?"

"A few days ago, the president of my family's chamber of commerce was assassinated, and he barely escaped with his life. After investigation, it seems that he has a very close relationship with a few people at this time. I wonder if they can give an explanation. I would also like to tell my family Your Excellency is on a mission!"

The eyes of the eight people changed. After looking at each other, one of them cupped his hands and said, "Is this friend from Hanzhong?"

Black Feather nodded and said: "Not bad!"

Seeing Heiyu's face, the originally ugly faces of the eight Nanyang nobles suddenly became even more ugly.

Although they were a little worried that Mr. Mo would retaliate, this speed was a bit too fast!

A moment later.

I saw the hooded old man who was the last to arrive tonight among the eight people stood up, gritted his teeth and said: "My friend, to be honest, this matter is completely a misunderstanding. We didn't know about the caravan at first. He is under that lord’s command.”

"Let's do this! I am willing to pay five thousand gold as an apology. I don't know what this friend wants."

In South Korea, it is measured in "big gold". Five thousand gold coins are exchanged for Qin gold coins, which is 20,000 gold coins. Such an apology can indeed be regarded as quite sincere.

Not every local noble is as rich as the 'four major clans' in Nan County. Five thousand gold is considered a small amount of blood for these eight local nobles.

This can be seen from the look of pain on everyone's faces after the hooded old man said these words.

But they did not object.

They know very well that this five thousand gold is more appropriate to say that it is life money than an 'apology'.

"Oh? It seems that you guys are really sincere! But before discussing the 'apology', I have another question for Patriarch Huang."

Having said this, Heiyu looked at the white-haired old man with a smile on his face and said, "I would like to know who the dignitary of the Qin State that Patriarch Huang mentioned just now is?"

Black Feather's words made the white-haired old man's eyes change slightly. The next second, the white-haired old man suddenly took action, kicked the desk away, blocked Black Feather's sight, and jumped out of the window without hesitation.

Seeing this, Heiyu also sighed quietly, his eyes gradually turned cold: "What a pity!"
