Chapter 8433 Desire
Outside Linze City.
On the mine.
It was night again, and the miners who had been busy all day returned to their houses one after another.
Among these miners, there are roughly two types of people.
The first category is the normal workers nearby who work for wages.
The second category is those guilty miners who committed crimes and were thrown into the mines to atone for their sins through hard work.
In the past, these mines were under the control of squires, and all the miners in them had a hard time. They did the most tiring and painful work, and as a result, their wages were deducted from their wages by the mine supervisors. Many miners even died in the mines.
.
There are also some miners who are not voluntary, but are laborers brought in from other places by human traffickers. Some of them died locally, and their names and origins are unknown.
Things are different now. Since Yang's Trading Company took over the mine, the treatment of the miners has been greatly improved. They will no longer be beaten and scolded at will. Their working hours have also been greatly shortened, and they can even get full wages.
wages.
Many miners have placed statues of Mrs. Yang of Yang's Trading Company in their homes, praying for her family's safety and long life.
And in this environment, if anyone says something bad about the Luo family and the Yang family, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Those miners will beat to death those who speak ill of others.
Yun Lianqing returned to the shack.
Today, he is having a very difficult time.
From time to time, some things about him were exposed, especially the fact that he and his son wanted to deal with Luo Xingchen.
The miners were so angry that they almost beat him to death on the spot.
Fortunately, the supervisor drove the miners away, otherwise, he would have died.
Yun Lianqing's bones ached all over his body. He was an old man after all. Even if his body was strong, he couldn't withstand such torture.
He closed his eyes and slept on the bed for a while. When he was in a daze, he heard movement in the house.
He suddenly woke up with a start.
Then, he noticed that the light of candles began to appear in the room again.
"It's been a day, what have you thought about it?"
The masked man in black asked softly.
Yun Lianqing stood up and leaned on the bed. His eyes caught a glimpse of the cold light on the waist of the masked man in black.
If he dares to say the word "no", his life may be in danger.
However, he has already prepared in advance.
"I already promised you yesterday." Yun Lianqing lowered his voice.
"But you made a condition to kill Luo Xingchen. We can't fulfill this condition for the time being."
Men in Black.
Yesterday, he made an excuse, but today, he admitted it directly.
Also, it is not easy to kill Luo Xingchen.
"It's okay if I can't reach it. Didn't you say that you want me to get back everything I lost?"
There was a longing light in Yun Lianqing's eyes.
This is not something he performed, but his true feelings.
He dreams of living the good life again...
This person has a biting nature in his heart. When he has some things, he is often dissatisfied. Only when he loses them does he regret it, but by that time, it is already too late.
"I've said it before, but this matter shouldn't be settled in one fell swoop. It needs to be discussed over a long period of time," the man in black said.
"You don't give me anything, and what you say is false. How can I believe you?" Yun Lianqing coughed twice and said very dissatisfied.
The men in black obviously also knew that what they did was a bit excessive. If they didn't give anything, how could they let others do things?
"What do you want now? Be specific and don't be too outrageous. I will report it to your superiors and help you achieve it." The man in black said without changing his tone.
No matter what he thinks in his heart, he will remain calm on the surface.
"Two o'clock."
Yun Lianqing stretched out two fingers.
"First, ensure my safety in the mine so that I don't have to do heavy work."
"Second, take care of my wife, concubines, and two young sons, and don't let them die."
"On these two points, it should be easy for you to do it, right? This is not too much to ask."
"I will report it to my superiors, okay, let's talk next time."
The masked man in black blew out the candles and left again.
He knew that Yun Lianqing would not continue the conversation unless his two conditions were met.
He is just here to make contact, he is not the one who can really make the final decision.
He is only responsible for reporting it, he has no control over the outcome.
…
In the evening of the second day.
Yu Shengyan retracted his fingers and let out a long breath.
It’s not easy!
Compared with the first day, his speed in clearing meridians has been greatly improved, and he has become more proficient in it.
"Depending on today's progress and treatment time, it may end early."
Yu Shengyan still had a clear understanding of his abilities, but he did not take into account the factors of the skills provided by Mo Anbai.
Mo Anbai's Kung Fu is the follow-up to the Mohist Kung Fu, and makes up for all its flaws.
Ah Qing is a genius in cultivation. In the past two days, she has also been operating her internal energy on her own. After the Yushengyan treatment, she did not rest. Instead, she used all her spare time to adjust her breath and change the route of her exercises. This greatly accelerated the recovery of her meridians.
speed.
"Approximately how far in advance can it be?"
Ah Qing asked.
"It originally had to wait until the day after tomorrow, but if we do it again tomorrow morning, it should be almost done." Yu Shengyan said.
"Senior Yu, are you leaving tomorrow? Or should you stay one more day?"
Mo Anbai next to him asked.
"I'll leave tomorrow. After opening up the meridians, the rest is to recover on my own, so I won't be needed anymore."
"Master Luo has an agreement with me, and there are many other things to do."
Yu Shengyan felt a little tired. Ever since he met Luo Xingchen, he had become an oppressed labor force and was no longer as pure as before.
"Senior Yu, I will leave after lunch tomorrow. I have prepared many dishes to entertain you."
Mo Anbai said seriously.
"Okay." Yu Shengyan agreed.
After everything was done, after dark, under an oil lamp, Mo Anbai and Luo Xingchen met to discuss the next thing.
"Sir, the people over there are so tough. I asked people to cooperate with them, but their progress is still so slow."
Mo Anbai is currently in charge of the arrangements for the hidden guards near Linze City, as well as some personnel in the Prefect's Mansion.
Luo Xingchen has already given Mo Anbai the position of deputy commander of the hidden guards, which can be regarded as a semi-official person.
But because she has not yet gone to the capital to report to the emperor, the position of deputy commander is only temporary.
But even if it is temporary, it is enough.
"Just give them a push, and arrange for someone to tell the two informants so that they can find an excuse and take the lead in getting things done." Luo Xingchen thought for a while.
"The most famous informant outside the city is Yun Lianqing, the third eldest son of the Yun family. He is a smart man. The informant inside the city is Wei Donglai from the Wei family. You should have heard of me, sir." Mo An Bai smiled.
