Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 762: Poison Scheme

Soon, two carriages came out of the alley and drove quietly towards the city wall in the northwest.

In the past two weeks, Zhou Sheng has verified in detail what Mr. Chen said - the Jinxia City Affairs Bureau is indeed carrying out a massive water supply project, and it is advancing at an extremely fast speed. Now it has been able to send water to the West, two northern districts. No matter in the streets or alleys or teahouses, people are discussing this matter enthusiastically. It doesn't take him much effort to confirm that this seemingly incredible project is not a rumor, and the Bureau of Affairs really wants to solve it for the residents of the city. This is less than a hundred steps to fetch water.

And all the water comes from the Jiujiang.

Jinxia City has opened up a new factory area in the west, covering an area of ​​about 5,000 mu. The surrounding areas are separated by simple fences, and there are many reservoirs inside. A large amount of running water from the downstream is continuously pumped into it, and then transported to various urban areas. Even if they are separated by hundreds of feet, they can still hear the sound of rushing water and the rhythmic roar of mechanism creations.

Zhou Sheng decided not to wait any longer.

He wants the people above to see his abilities.

Even an unarmed scholar can explode with great strength in the face of adversity.

"Go to the street on the left, yes, it's here - stop two hundred steps ahead." He sat on the front edge of the carriage and instructed.

The coachman did as he was told.

The two cars slowly stopped by the fence of the water plant.

"Quick, do it now!" Zhou Sheng was the first to jump out of the carriage, "Get me a saw and cut a hole in these fences!"

The subordinates he recruited approached one after another, but they didn't obey the order immediately.

"Uh...Young Master, this is the territory of the Bureau, right?"

"Yeah." Others showed signs of hesitation, "Are you sure you want to make a hole here?"

Zhou Sheng was laughed out of anger for a moment. In order to move smoothly, he went to the surrounding towns to recruit people, and they all claimed to be ruthless characters who killed people without blinking an eye. Judging from their attire and style, they are also quacks who are willing to risk their lives for a chance. They didn't expect that even sawing a fence would make them look embarrassed.

He didn't know whether to say that he had found the wrong person, or that the Bureau's reputation was so strong that even outsiders would be afraid of it.

"Don't you want money!?" Zhou Sheng lowered his voice and said viciously, "I won't let you kill others, and second, I won't let you rob others. It's just to help me deliver some things! Even if you are arrested by the government afterwards Now, it’s just a few years of hard labor, what are you afraid of?”

"This..." Everyone couldn't help but looked at each other.

Young Master Zhou's heart began to sink. He didn't expect that the plan would encounter such obstacles at the very beginning. Before recruiting people, in order to avoid leaking the plan, he naturally didn't explain his thoughts clearly, but each of the group patted their chests and said that there was no job they dared not do, and he didn't take the matter of cutting the fence to heart. Seeing the passing of time now, there will be patrols passing by in a quarter of an hour or two, and he obviously can't delay any longer.

what to do?

Temporarily increase the bounty to encourage them?

This is not a good choice, Zhou Sheng is well aware of the greedy nature of these people, once they open their mouths, it may make them sit on the ground and raise the price.

"My lord is right, what's the matter with the Bureau? The fence of his house can't be touched?" At this moment, a small man relieved him, only to see the man spat out the thatch in his mouth, took a saw and started sawing at the fence. . "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and finish this job, the young master still has money to spend!"

"That's right," another strong man echoed, "Sawing a piece of wood is easier than killing people. If anyone doesn't want to do it, just leave me now, and save a lot of money."

Seeing someone start, the remaining few became more courageous.

What's more, the strong man is honest, he only gets paid for his work, even if he goes to prison for a few years, as long as he gets the reward, he can still live a good life when he comes out.

The fence set up around the water plant is basically made of wood, and the height is only about one and a half people, so it is not difficult to cut it. After working for about a quarter of an hour, everyone opened a "gap" on the fence for carriages to pass through.

Zhou Sheng let out a long breath.

He called the coachman to drive the carriage into the factory, then took out the prepared rivets and hemp rope, rejoined the cut wooden frame, and reserved a section of pulling rope—in this way, the patrols did not look carefully. It is difficult to find that the fence here has been damaged, and when the time comes to retreat, you only need to pull the rope hard to reopen the gap.

"Go to the pool." He ordered, and at the same time, took another look at the two "early birds". The little man has scars on his face, and he doesn't usually talk much, but his eyes are quite fierce, and he can tell at a glance that he is not a good person. The brawny man is much more ordinary, he is the kind that cannot be recognized when thrown in the crowd, but the bulging muscles on his upper arm prove that this man's origin is not ordinary, and his hands and feet are also very neat, which can make people unconsciously think of him in the past. Veterans of the battlefield.

Considering that after the defeat of the Allied Forces of Ten States, many routs flowed into the civilian population, such speculation is reasonable.

A hint of solicitation rose in Zhou Sheng's heart.

He is currently short of manpower. If he can bring these two under his command, he will be able to reduce a lot of worries when he leaves Jinxia and goes north to Gyeonggi.

The night provided the best cover for the carriage, and it was already early morning, so the huge factory area was empty and silent. It's just that those organs are still running rumblingly, as if they never get tired.

For Zhou Sheng, this is actually a good thing.

These noises are enough to cover the abnormal sound of horseshoes pedaling.

When he came to the pool, he impatiently picked up a sack on the car, tore off the seal, and dumped the contents of the bag into the pool.

Watching these maroon "dust" fall into the turbulent running water, Zhou Sheng felt a strong pleasure in his heart.

Want to provide a convenient and unified water supply for the whole city? I'll let you feed yourselves!

"Young master... what are you doing?" Someone couldn't help asking.

"You'd better not ask, it's for your own good." He raised the corner of his mouth and said in a cold voice, "What are you still doing in a daze, help me and move all the bags here, and I will do the rest myself."

That's right, he's going to destroy the Bureau's entire water plan.

Since ancient times, poisoning has been the most effective method of destruction.

After two weeks of secret observation, Zhou Sheng confirmed one thing, that is, the water plant built in a hurry was not as strictly guarded as other factories of the Machinery Engineering Bureau. This is also easy to understand. The water plant is too big. After the west city wall was demolished, it almost continued from the Jiujiang River to the urban area. In addition, there are still many houses under construction on the east side of the plant, and construction teams come in and out. It is also difficult for the government to carry out strict management.

Another key point is that there are pitifully few employees in the entire factory area! I don't know what new gadgets the mechanism building bureau has come up with. Those mechanism creations operate all day long, but they don't need people to guard them. Sometimes he stays all day long without seeing much movement by the pool, let alone at night.

After staying in Jinxia City for a long time, Zhou Sheng also learned a lot of new words. He knew that the water supply facility hadn't really been completed yet and was currently in a trial run, and this was an opportunity he couldn't afford to miss!
