Chapter 1713: Chapter 1713: Delivering the Weapons
Shu Yu, ââŠâ couldnât listen any longer, eighty-year-old mother? So, youâre a child born to old parents?
She cleared her throat, âAlright, letâs get down to business.â
âOh, right.â Qin Kun wiped away nonexistent tears, lifted his head, and said to the tied-up people, âI advise you to turn over a new leaf. The black market is not a good place. Just confess what you need to, and you might get a good deal like me.â
As he spoke, he noticed a few timid ones avoiding eye contact, realizing there was hope, he became even more earnest, âI have freedom of movement now, donât have to worry about losing my life. Weâre all young, right? Thereâs no need to risk our lives for this black market; itâs not worth it. Think about your families, think about the future, okay.â
Before he could finish, the person who had cursed him earlier stood up again, âShut up, youâŠâ
Meng Yunzheng thrust his sword forward, and the person fell to the ground with a âthump,â trembling and unable to stand up.
The others widened their eyes, so frightened that they almost huddled together.
But it must be said, with this sort of killing the chicken to scare the monkey and Qin Kunâs persuasion, two people really did start speaking softly, âI, I know thereâs a secret room in Second Master Fuâs room, there should be a lot of stuff hidden inside.â
âI know, one of Boss Keâs handy men has a lover in the Wanhua Building in the city.â
With someone taking the lead, these people who werenât particularly loyal immediately started racking their brains to tell what they knew.
Donât underestimate them as insignificant, unused small fry; the embankment of a thousand miles crumbles because of an ant hole, the information they knew was plentiful. Though not major clues, there always should be one or two useful pieces.
In the end, someone even disclosed that there were two people hiding in the wardrobe on the third floor.
Great, Old Master Yang immediately took a few young lords to catch them.
For those who cooperated voluntarily, Meng Yunzheng was indeed kinder towards them, but there were also those unwilling to cooperate, who instead threatened those who had switched allegiance. Such people had their jaws dislocated directly, and their hands and feet bound tightly for strict supervision.
After pretty much all the questions were answered, Meng Yunzheng finally took Shu Yu to see the weapons cache.
The black marketâs weapons cache was on the third floor, behind a conference hall where not even a small steward could step foot, very discreet.
Not many people knew about this place, at least none of the small fry downstairs had ever seen it.
Shu Yu looked at the tightly packed weapons cache in front of her, clicked her tongue twice, âSwords, spears, blades, halberds, bows, and even a catapult. What are they planning, to besiege a city?â
Although the catapult was not a large one and there was only one, having it here was indeed chilling to think about.
Meng Yunzheng ran his fingers over these weapons, sneering, âJust right, these things can be sent to General Huang.â
âThatâs a good idea, butâŠhow are we going to send them?â
They were in the black market; the catapult was hard to move and couldnât be carried out, so that idea was abandoned. The swords, spears, blades, and halberds could be taken out, but where would they take them?
The black market has two entrances, one leading to Chenggu County, but the county town is under the county magistrateâs control.
The other entrance is outside the city; sending them to General Huang from outside the city might be feasible.
But theyâre not familiar with the outside, and they have no idea where General Huang is at the moment. Theyâre more likely to encounter those impersonating mountain bandits from the black market before meeting General Huang.
