After sending Hu Shaomeng away, Jiang Wang reconvened everyone and announced that the mine would be postponed for half a year until the mineral veins were completely exhausted.
As the envoy of the Chongxuan family, he essentially became the immediate boss of these people.
Except for Hu Guanshi who showed obvious happiness, the other two extraordinary monks had a dull reaction.
Zhang Hai was obviously a little uneasy, probably because he didn't dare to leave for the time being because of his elixir and Jiang Wang's prestige. Forward, he still looked like he was dying.
To be honest, Jiang Wang didn't want either of these two people. But his hands were really bare, so he could only make do with pinching his nose.
As Zhong Xuansheng said, everyone has his own usage and value.
Even more valuable extraordinary monks would not come to work in such a mine.
The two extraordinary monks left one after another, leaving only Guanshi Hu and the maid Xiaoxiao in the room.
Just when Jiang Wang was about to give some instructions to Manager Hu, the maid Xiaoxiao suddenly said: "Master, I wonder if you still remember something? There is something wrong with the jar of tiger bone wine in your room."
Jiang Wang glanced at her: "Did you write that note?"
Xiao Xiao's heart tightened and he lowered his head: "Yes. Slave... I learned some words when I was a child."
"How do you know there's something wrong with the wine?" Jiang Wang asked.
"I just know Ge Heng's temper. If you offend him, he will definitely be detrimental to you."
At this time, Manager Hu fell to his knees with a plop: "Mr. Messenger, is the wine poisonous or poisonous? The poisonous wine has been replaced!"
It solved a doubt, although the answer was of little value.
"You don't have to kneel." Jiang Wang stretched out his hand to help him up: "What is the specific situation? Can you tell me?"
"Master Ge, no, the bastard named Ge is very narrow-minded. He wanted to teach you a lesson, so he poisoned the wine and forced me to give it to you. I dare not not give it to you, let alone say it out!"
Manager Hu kept wiping his sweat and said with fear: "Well, I can only change it secretly. When he asked, he said that I might not drink."
He said and was about to kneel down again.
Jiang Wang waved his hand to stop him from kneeling down. "You replaced the poisoned wine with wine. What's wrong with you? I should thank you for taking care of me."
"I don't dare, I don't dare."
Seeing the submissiveness of this little old man, Jiang Wang sighed in his heart.
He didn't force Manager Hu to treat him calmly after learning his identity. That was unrealistic after all.
"Don't think too much. It's up to you to take care of things in the mine. What you did before will continue to do what you do now. Just maintain the status quo." He directly ordered: "I only control the direction and am not responsible for specific affairs. Understand.
?"
Manager Hu felt confident and his feet were steadier: "I understand, I understand."
"By the way." Jiang Wang thought of something: "Are you really Hu Shaomeng's uncle?"
"This is not true." Manager Hu said with some embarrassment: "But he has not been close to us since he was a child. There is no way to establish a relationship. I am afraid that the monks will look down on him..."
"Understood."
Jiang Wang responded with an understanding smile and left with Xiao Xiao.
This little old man is quite interesting. Although he is used to groveling due to the pressure of life, he is actually a person who pays great attention to himself and dignity.
Don't underestimate anyone who has independent thinking. Jiang Wang reminded himself this way.
Take the jar of poisonous wine, for example. If Xiaoxiao hadn't warned and Guanshi Hu hadn't replaced the poisonous wine, things might have had another outcome.
Walking in the mine, Jiang Wang asked casually: "Do you hate him?"
Xiaoxiao didn't dare to hide it and said frankly: "It was his job recruitment that brought me here."
Jiang Wang didn't mind this level of leverage. It was human nature to repay grudges. But this made him realize more clearly that everyone has their own demands, even if she was just a maid at this time.
.
"Xie Hao didn't leave, he was killed by Hu Shaomeng." Jiang Wang turned around and said, "Maybe what he said to you is sincere."
Xiaoxiao followed behind and walked silently. After being silent for a while, he said: "Strange to say, I once wished that he was dead. The more miserable his death, the better. It wasn't until he was really dead that I realized. I would rather
He lied to me. I would rather be a despicable and ruthless person. As long as he lives well."
She didn't appear very sad, but just a little confused: "Master, you are an extraordinary person. Why do people behave like this?"
"That's how people are." Jiang Wang said.
…
Ge Heng is dead.
He was beaten to death by angry miners.
No one remembers who landed first. After a long period of punches and kicks, Ge Heng was already lying on the ground motionless.
The crowd dispersed.
Xiaocui's body was buried by people.
The miners were all good at digging holes and chose a place with a good view.
And Ge Heng's body was lying alone in the yard.
Some people suggested throwing him into a furnace and burning him, but no one wanted to carry his body, so the matter was abandoned.
Ge Heng's death was not difficult to handle. Firstly, his crime was confirmed, secondly, he died in the outrage of everyone. Thirdly, this place belonged to Qingyang Town, and the case ended with the pavilion chief Hu You.
After he reports to Jiacheng, Jiacheng will generally not be in trouble.
At this time, everyone had dispersed, and Shuanzi was alone outside the yard, wondering what he was thinking.
Jiang Wang walked over and threw a ball of fireworks, burning Ge Heng's body to ashes.
He had already expected this scene after leaving Ge Heng here, so there was nothing surprising. He burned the body just to avoid hidden dangers such as the plague.
"By the way." He said to Shuanzi: "What did you see the day Hu Shaomeng killed Xie Hao? Tell me exactly what you know. Don't be afraid. I guarantee your safety."
Huahai is not a specialized interrogation technique. Jiang Wang had only used the hallucinogenic effect to provide some guidance before.
Now that authority has been established at this time, it is better to get straight to the point. Shuanzi doesn't dare to hide it anymore.
In asking this question, Jiang Wang mainly wanted to understand Hu Shaomeng's fighting style in advance, so that he could have some ideas.
Unexpectedly, Shuanzi was stunned for a moment: "I didn't see Hu Shaomeng kill Xie Hao."
Only then did Jiang Wang realize that he might have thought wrong.
"Then who did you see him kill?"
Jiang Wang asked a little eagerly. Shuanzi swallowed nervously and said timidly: "One, a miner. Just one slap and his head was gone. I squatted there for convenience and didn't dare to say anything."
"Is he the miner who saw the sheep in the mine?" Jiang Wang asked.
"I don't know. There are a lot of people in the mine. People come and go often. I don't know him."
Although Shuan Zi was not sure, Jiang Wang was certain in his heart.
Because these two things are so coincidental.
No matter how Hu Shaomeng was a disciple of a famous sect, he would not go around blatantly killing people. There must be a reason for killing people.
only……
A worker strangely saw a sheep in the mine.
And Hu Shaomeng killed him.
What does this mean?
Sheep, sheep.
Jiang Wang vaguely grasped something.
Qingyang Town!
"Xiao Xiao, you go back first. I'll go take a look in the mine."
Jiang Wang hurriedly said something, then turned and walked towards the mine.
With his status, naturally no one can stop him.
The miners were curious about why he entered the mine in person, but they did not dare to ask.
After years of excavation, the mines have spread in all directions, almost hollowing out the mountain.
The inside of the cave is dark, and it gets darker as you go inside.
Although the Chongxuan family is wealthy, they are not equipped with hanging lamps for the miners.
Oil lamps are basically used for lighting in mines.
Of course, for Jiang Wang, a fire flower is enough.
The deeper we go, the quieter we get. The footsteps on the ground make a hollow echo.
Jiang Wang didn't know what he was looking for, he just pretended to be looking for something.
He knew that the news would inevitably reach Hu Shaomeng's ears.
He is waiting for possible clues.
Or, Hu Shaomeng's reaction.
