Chapter 6 - Chapter 06

Jian Gongzi didn't say much. On the other hand magistrate sat on the main seat. He took the teacup and drank a sip from it.

"I have heard so much about the Jian gongzi. If I am correct. Jian gongzi must be here due to matter on mine.

Jian gongzi only nodded. "There are so many forces preying on this matter. Not a great idea to appear in this place. Isn't it?"

Magistrate looked at the youth with wide eyes. Is Jian gongzi planning to fight for the mine with the other parties?

He is someone who will avoid danger in every matter. That's why he had been hiding like an ostrich in the mansion.

He also didn't contact the crown prince as he would be able to enjoy the all the profit from the mine. But some spy had leaked the information which led to the information being spread.

But strangely the crown price haven't received any information regarding the mine as it has been intentionally covered from him.

Magistrate first thought it might be the third prince. But he haven't made a move at all. Who could it be?

He looked at the boy sitting on the guest seat and made a wild guess. The person sitting before him has the power to do such things.

Although he never dealt with Jian gongzi but he had rumors that Jian gongzi had ability to go against the many forces in the Jianghu.

He must have already started his plans two months ago when the mine was discovered for the first time. If he did that much ability why he delayed it until now? Why didn't he come forward at the time?

But now all the forces gathered he appeared.

What is his motive to do it in such a way?

Is he really only plans to acquire the mine or more than that?

Magistrate of Yongjin asked "Jian gongzi is coming here is to acquire the mines?"

Jian gongzi smiled calmly and said. "I have heard the crown prince has lot of underlings around this place."

Magistrate eyes shot upwards. This Jian gongzi bought up the crown prince. That means he wants to him to change his loyalty. But why?

Jian gongzi stood up. "If the magistrate thinks about the crown prince and wants to see me. I will be staying in the Wan Ya inn for a few days. If you have time. Come and visit me."

Then he left the place.

The magistrate was in a dilemma. He didn't know the motive of the Jian gongzi. But asking him to change the loyalty. It's really a hard choice. But that doesn't mean he doesn't know about the advantage he will be receiving based on that.

He sat on the main seat in daze. As he pondered over the matter.

When Jian gongzi came out he immediately left for the Wan Yan inn. The most luxurious inn in the city.

This is the information received for the underling of the third prince. He reported it to the third prince who is living in a private villa.

Third prince is the most outstanding prince after the second prince. He is well known among people for his benevolence. Even the crown prince is not a match for him.

But behind that façade of a gentle prince lies a venomous heart of a snake. He had schemed against his brothers so he could gain the throne.

He is man who likes to sneak attack. He had been spying on his first brother to attain the throne. When he received the information about the strange movement's magistrate he immediately sent his men to inquire.

He received the news about the mines.

So he sent his men first.

He came here secretly not long after that.

Who knows if it's his bad luck or not. When he was about to snach the mines from the powerless magistrate by blocking all his escape routes. The dark valley appeared.

However they didn't make any moves. They just waited and observed.

He knew about the dark valley. So he also waited. But this Jian gongzi is really came suddenly and already met with the magistrate.

And more is that Jian gongzi is a businessman who has lots of connection. If the magistrate agrees to join with him it's not beneficial.

He can now only hope that the dark valley receives the news and take action.

It's one of the force which can face directly the Wan Yan pavilion.

The Dark valley is shocked to receive the news about the Jian gongzi. Who knew this Rich guy would show up suddenly to take up the mines?

What's more astonishing is that Jian gongzi made a move so suddenly.

When Xie Jing Shen received the news about this matter. He narrowed his eyes. "It seems I have been played by this guy."

Lan Wu was astonished. "Master what do you mean by this?"

Xie Jing Shen only laughed coldly. "He must have been waiting for my arrival. "

Lan Wu said suddenly in realization. "Master do you meant to say the Jian gongzi knew you would come hearing the news. And he waited until you come before he made a move."

Xie Jing Shen smiled sarcastically as he sat on the longer. He said. "The ability to manipulate people must be his specialty. He is indeed a cunning business man."

"Master what should we do?"

"Just wait. I need to know which person in royal supports this Jian gongzi."

Lan Wu looked at his master in astonishment. "Does master means to say that there are people supporting the Jian gongzi?"

Xie Jing Shen only nodded.

Lan Wu said. "Master this subordinate will wait for father news about Jian gongzi"

Xie Jing Shen looked at the decorations of the room and realized that Jian gongzi is indeed a man with many schemes. He is really excited to exchange some moves with the man. It has really been a long time since he had been played in the other people's hand.

He really looking forward to meet this person.
