The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 2111: Chapter 2111: No One Knows Who Sent Them (1)

Even though the people outside were numerous and skilled in martial arts, once they realized the prowess of those on this side, they did not linger in battle. When they saw half of their numbers were wiped out, they withdrew immediately.

Gu Qingheng looked at Chai Qin, who stood before him with a sword in hand, his expression unprecedentedly somber.

”Young Master, I...” Chai Qin trembled under his gaze.

”One more time, and don’t appear before me again.” Gu Qingheng didn’t tell her to leave immediately; after all, they were already halfway through their journey, so he would give her another chance.

Chai Qin knelt on one knee: ”Thank you, Young Master.”

Gu Qingheng turned and returned to the room. As for the corpses outside, one of the skills the Shadow Guards learned was handling such things. With Dao Xuzi’s Corpse Dissolving Water and Tang Wanqian’s carrion beetles, dealing with them was effortlessly easy, and they ensured not a trace would be left.

”Do you know who sent them?” Yang Ruxin looked at Gu Qingheng.

Gu Qingheng shook his head: ”Those people carried no marks, nor any accessories, so it’s truly hard to know who made the move at the moment.”

”If we don’t know, then don’t worry about it.” Yang Ruxin got up and poured a cup of tea, handing it over, ”Anyway, if they refuse to give up, they will strike again. They’ll eventually show a flaw.”

Gu Qingheng nodded, took the tea, and drank it. Instantly, he felt his whole body refreshed. He didn’t know why, but whenever his wife brewed the tea, it was always tastier than when anyone else did, even with the same tea, teapot, and water; the flavor differed significantly.

There was definitely a difference. When she brewed tea, she used water from the well in her private space. Although the water didn’t precisely cultivate the body, it was incomparably sweet and had the function of cleansing body waste, thus naturally tasting much better.

”Let’s sleep.” Gu Qingheng set down the teacup, ”Tomorrow, aren’t we going to the Tan Family’s Stone Store to have a look?”

Yang Ruxin nodded; since the Tan Family was quite impressive, naturally, they had to go see if the so-called high-grade stones there did indeed have a higher chance of yielding emeralds and better quality.

Perhaps outsiders would have to wait for an appointment, but with Fa Qingyang present, things would be much simpler. The Tan Family might ignore anyone else’s face, but they couldn’t disregard Longyun Villa.

After all, the position of Imperial Merchant was, frankly, given to the Tan Family by Longyun Villa.

The next morning, just after having breakfast at the inn, Fa Qingyang arrived.

”Young Master Fa is quite punctual.” Yang Ruxin smiled; someone had been watching their movements here consistently, reporting back.

”Of course. It’s rare for me to be the host. Naturally, I can’t be negligent.” Fa Qingyang laughed, ”Are you ready? If so, let’s set off.”

Since the Tan Family’s Stone Store wasn’t far, everyone walked over instead of riding horses.

”This whole area is the Tan Family’s territory.” Fa Qingyang introduced as he walked, ”They have several old mines with a significant yield of jade. Currently, about half of the jade artifacts in the Palace are produced by the Tan Family.”

”Why doesn’t Longyun Villa assume the role of Imperial Merchant?” Yang Ruxin glanced at Fa Qingyang.

”Longyun Villa has a considerable number of enterprises. My mother... my father’s health has always not been very good, so they have to keep a low profile.” Fa Qingyang chuckled, ”Ahead is the Tan Family’s Stone Store.”

The Tan Family’s Stone Store was built next to the Tan Family Manor, occupying a vast area, right by the edge of Zuo County.
