C9 The Mysterious Man

"Huh? She wants to see me?" The man in white was slightly different.

After Wang Dali and his group returned to the village from the wasteland, they brought Lin Qingqian directly to the door of the big boss.

"Yes, boss, it's related to this wasteland."

"Interesting, let her in." A playful smile appeared on his face.

Lin Qingqian turned around and walked in front of the boss.

"This is our Great Master Jiang Wuyue." Wang Dali respectfully bowed to the man in white.

"young master Jiang, I've been looking forward to seeing you for a long time."

Lin Qingqian's fair skin was flushed red by the wind on the wasteland, but there was not a trace of fear on her face. She looked completely different from the rumored silly girl of the Lin Family.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Jiang Wuyue said faintly.

Lin Qingqian did not waste any time and went straight to the point, "I want to farm in your wilderness."

"Oh?" When Jiang Wuyue heard this, she felt that this was a pipe dream. He stayed in Qinzhou for a long time. He was the clearest about the situation. It wasn't like he hadn't thought of a solution before. If it was useful, it wouldn't be like this.

"The wasteland of Qinzhou isn't completely barren. It's only because of the lack of water and the cracks on the ground. As long as we open a canal to draw water and plant some suitable crops, this place will regain its vitality. Originally, there was a large lake on the edge of this wasteland. However, the amount of salt inside is too much. It seems like it is a salt lake. I can only think of another way to get this water source." Lin Qingqian said unhurriedly.

"What does that have to do with me?" She did not think that the young lady from the Lin family had only been here for half a day and already had such a detailed understanding of her surroundings. Jiang Wuyue also became more and more interested in her.

"Just because Lin Qingqian is unable to do it alone, if she wants to improve, she still needs the head of the family to negotiate with the surrounding gangs and let them join together."

Jiang Wuyue smiled but did not say anything. Lin Qingqian's ability was indeed beyond his expectations.

"As long as there is improvement in the wasteland, the economy of Qinzhou will bring great development. After all, food and clothing is the most serious problem at the moment." Her starry eyes were glowing.

"What if it doesn't work?" Jiang Wuyue turned her back and asked with her hands clasped behind her back.

"If it doesn't work, then it doesn't work. It's a wasteland. It's just a wasteland. Why can't it be used for experiments?"

Jiang Wuyue's heart was a little unsettled. Lin Qingqian's words were like a huge rock smashing into the water, causing ripples. But he still said without batting an eyelid, "I will discuss this with the master. The development of Qinzhou is also what we want to see."

"Big Brother, we can't let this man live. When Lin Qingqian walked out of the door, Zhuh Xueying came closer.

Jiang Wuyue waved her hand and realized that Zhuh Xueying did not need to say anymore.

Zhuh Xueying gritted her teeth and retreated. Her eyes revealed a fierce look.

Ninth chapter, Assassination in the Late Night.

The night was as dark as ink. Madame Sun and Qinn had already fallen asleep. Lin Qingqian put down the oil lamp and took off her coat. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly saw a figure flash past outside the window. She quickly put on her clothes and came to the courtyard.

Before she could stand still, she heard the sound of weapons breaking through the wind. She saw a skinny Black Clothed Man pointing his sword at her, "You witch, if you don't stay in the capital well, you must come to Qinzhou to die. I will personally send you off!"

The voice sounded very familiar. Clearly, it was Third Master and Zhuh Xueying.

Lin Qingqian's pupils contracted and could not avoid it. She could only advise softly, "Third Master, I have no enmity with you. Why are you like this?"

"I have no enmity with you, but my husband and children have all died in the hands of your father, Minister Lin. He is far away in the capital and I cannot kill him. Everyone says that the father owes the son, so don't blame me for being ruthless!" Zhuh Xueying said sternly.

Lin Qingqian could not think of a way at the moment. Seeing that the tip of the sword was about to reach her chest, she closed her eyes in horror.

"Ding!"

A crisp sound of metal hitting metal was heard. Lin Qingqian suddenly opened her eyes and saw a silver hidden weapon break Zhuh Xueying's sword.

Zhuh Xueying's face immediately turned pale when she saw the hidden weapon, "Master's hidden arrow!"

Jiang Wuyue suddenly walked in from the yard door. Her white clothes fluttered under the moonlight and she said quietly, "Xueying, Mistress is waiting for you in the room."

Zhuh Xueying's face instantly turned pale. She threw the broken sword in her hand and left in a daze.

Lin Qingqian was still in shock and she exhaled deeply.

"Miss Lin, this matter was my negligence and it frightened Miss Lin. This Jiang promises that this kind of thing will never happen again in the future." Jiang Wuyue said with a smile.

Lin Qingqian nodded, "I hope so. I still want to sleep peacefully."

She walked back to her room with heavy steps.

In the main stronghold room at the waist of the mountain, Zhuh Xueying pushed open the door and found a man in black standing in the room with half a golden mask on his face. A pair of slender peach blossom eyes were full of aloofness and aloofness.

"Master..."

"Who allowed you to attack without permission!" The black clothed man saw Zhuh Xueying's actions clearly. When he opened his mouth, his voice was as cold as a mountain stream.

Zhuh Xueying was silent. She had a nameless anger towards the people in the capital. In her eyes, no one was innocent. If they were innocent, then who should her innocent husband and son ask for their lives?

"When did you arrive? Why didn't you tell us in advance?" Jiang Wuyue returned to the room and closed the door. The sudden appearance of Black Clothed Man surprised Jiang Wuyue. She had just sent a pigeon message to him, but he actually came personally.

The man said indifferently, "I passed by you when I encountered something. I came in to take a look."

His body exuded a powerful aura. He was dignified without being angry, and had the arrogance of looking down on the world.

Black Clothed Man did not have much patience with Jiang Wuyue's question. Instead, he was very interested in the assassination that happened in front of him. That silly girl from the Lin family was facing an assassin who could kill him at any time. Her calm and quiet made a splash in the black man's heart.

"What did the Lin Family come here for?" The black clothed man asked.

"In the morning, I asked my men to bring her to the wasteland. I wanted to scare her and force her to leave our stronghold as soon as possible. I didn't expect her to say that she wanted to see me as soon as she came back. She even said that she could plant crops on this piece of land." Jiang Wuyue sat at the table and poured him a cup of tea.

"Huh? What did you say?" The man in black took it and put it in his hand. He didn't have any intention of drinking it.

"Actually, I didn't really understand what she said. She just said that the wasteland was caused by the lack of water. As long as we open a canal to draw water and improve the condition of the soil, the crops can naturally survive."

Black Clothed Man nodded. "You're right."

Black Clothed Man had spent a lot of time investigating the Qinzhou to obtain this information. He had invited the most educated scholars in the capital, but these scholars only suspected that it was caused by the climate and did not dare to come to such a definite conclusion.

"I don't know how she can ensure that the land can survive crops. Interesting, indeed interesting." A glimmer of light appeared in Black Clothed Man's eyes.

Master, you can't keep this person. " Zhuh Xueying could not help but feel anxious when she saw that Mistress, who had always been hard to talk to, had acknowledged Lin Qingqian so quickly. "Mistress, if she does not have good intentions and deliberately comes with a goal, then we will allow her to continue like this and only make us even more dangerous."

"Are you saying that This King will be afraid of a little girl like her? Or is it that This King will be afraid of the current dynasty?" The black clothed man cast a sidelong glance at her, his moving peach blossom eyes filled with dignity.

"This... Mistress, of course I don't mean this." Zhuh Xueying panicked for a moment. Why did Mistress, who normally did not dare to be interested in anything, suddenly have such interest?

"Then, according to this king's wishes, from today onwards, whatever Lin Family's daughter wants to do, just let her do it." The man said indifferently.
