Chapter 231 Clues
As a small county town that relies on minerals and medicinal materials to make a living, Yishan County has several large medicinal materials trading markets.
Lin Chen visited here all day and really asked him to find out some news.
There are actually not many stores selling special medicinal materials such as gold and jade in the market in Yishan County. After Lin Chen's many inquiries, he really found some clues.
According to the information given by many pharmacies, there are a group of people in the market who are purchasing a large number of pharmacies from Jire Yang and various rare healing medicinal materials. Although they did not disclose their identities, after a period of squatting, Lin Chen happened to meet a mysterious person who was suspected to be buying medicinal materials.
Not long after, when the man came out of the medicine shop, Lin Chen hid in the crowd and followed the other party slowly forward in secret.
Soon, the two of them walked through the crowd and turned into a quiet alley.
"What family is this?"
Lin Chen hid in the corner not far away and watched the other party walk in through a small side door. He couldn't help but think of the plaque of the gate of the grand mansion I saw on the roadside. The plaque was written in gold with the words "He Mansion" flying dragons and phoenixes dancing.
"But why don't you go through the main entrance?" Lin Chen said to himself, without thinking too much, knowing that if you don't go in and out of the main entrance, then most of the things this person does will not be seen!
After thinking in his heart, Lin Chen quietly leaned over after the other party closed the door, counted a few in his heart, and calculated that the other party should have walked a short distance before he pressed the Yuejiao sword on his waist to prevent it from making any sound. He performed his light skills, jumped and jumped again and again. With just three movements, he crossed the high wall in front of him.
"Um?"
Lin Chen climbed down the wall and was about to set off, but suddenly stopped his body and his eyes fell on the road in front of him.
But I saw that the road in front of me was paved with blue bricks, but these paved roads were not ordinary blue bricks. There was a slight gap on both sides of each brick. If you look closely, you will find that the horizontal plane of these bricks was not neat, but there were highs and lows, which looked very strange.
Is this a sound brick?
The sound bricks are different from ordinary bricks. The structure at the bottom is special. When people step on them, several bricks will collide with each other, making a huge sound. Some powerful families will lay a layer of sound bricks on the ground in important places. As long as an assassin invades and step on the sound bricks, the special sounds from these grounds will immediately alarm the guards guarding nearby.
"Why do you need to lay so many sound bricks just a side door?"
You should know that due to the special structure, the production cost of sound bricks is relatively high, and the cost of paving roads with this kind of thing is extremely high. Even some wealthy families will only have such construction in some important places...
He turned his head and looked at the side door, but saw that although the paint color on the door was a little old, there were not many signs of wear and tear on the door. It might be that it was not opened many times.
When I thought of this, some of the thoughts were gradually becoming clearer and clear in Lin Chen's mind.
He glanced at the road in front of him, but fortunately the paving of the sound bricks was not large.
Lin Chen untied the Yue Jiao sword hanging on his waist, but did not pull it out. Instead, he grabbed the connection between the hilt and the scabbard with his hand, and then turned over. He flew out in the air. When his body was about to touch the ground, he immediately tapped the bottom of the scabbard on the ground. A stream of true energy immediately burst out from the bottom of the scabbard and rushed into the sound brick, quietly holding it like a cage, preventing it from shaking, and contacting other sound bricks beside him.
After repeating this, after several consecutive turnovers, Lin Chen flew out of the area of the sound brick floor and entered this yard.
"Huh..." Lin Chen let out a sigh of relief. The technique just now requires extremely high proficiency in controlling his own true qi. If it were put before, he would never be able to do it... However, since he practiced with Zhong Jingqing in Zhenwu Pavilion for so long, he found that his control over his own true qi is getting stronger and stronger!
Lin Chen looked around and found it silent. There seemed to be no guards in the yard?
He leaned against the wall and walked quietly, walking through the corridor in the courtyard. He then turned over and fell to the wall of a room.
"There should be this one inside..."
This kind of windows are not made of paper, and Lin Chen cannot see the scene in the room through the window. However, his hearing is extremely sensitive. At this moment, he leans his whole body against the window, but he can vaguely hear the conversations of the people inside.
The people in the room were very careful. Even if there was no one else in the yard, they pressed their voices very low to prevent the partition wall from being eared.
Only one person could say vaguely: "I have purchased all the medicinal materials on the market according to the order you gave you. However, purchasing these specific medicinal materials in such a large batch will always cause the government to notice...we...?"
"What's there to be afraid of? The business in our mansion itself is to make medicinal materials. Could it be that the government even has to take care of this?" Another person said, and the majesty between his words contrasted with the other person.
He pondered for a moment, and then said, "But... in order to prevent the government from finding out that we are causing unnecessary trouble, the people who participated in the purchase of medicinal materials will not show up in a short time. Next time, another group of people will be arranged to go there, and so on, so repeat the rotation..."
"Yes!" The man who spoke first responded, then hesitated for a moment, and asked again: "But... the villain doesn't know what the head of the family bought so many such medicinal materials? These things do not seem to be of much use, and they are more special after all... If the government asks, how should the villain answer?"
"He Shun, you are also an old man in the mansion. Of course, you should know not to ask if you shouldn't ask!" The person who was called the head of the family snorted coldly, and immediately scared He Shun to kneel down and said, "I dare not."

"But... if the government really asks, you will say that our mansion has taken on a big business in Daliang, and these medicinal materials are sent to Daliang!" The head of the family thought for a while and said in a deep voice. Daliang is now starting a war with Dajin. If it is a large-scale purchase of healing medicine among the people, this reason is reasonable.
"These medicinal materials are relatively rare, and the shops on the market will not be able to take them out in a short period of time. Now you should keep a good eye on the mountains and let the workers speed up the collection of medicines. Be sure to collect a thousand kilograms before the end of the month!"
After the head of the family said that, he stopped talking, waved his hand and said, "That's it, let's go!"
"Yes, the villain took his leave!" He Shun nodded immediately after hearing this, and walked out of the room with his waist bent down, and walked out of the house before he dared to stand up straight.
The room fell into silence again, but Lin Chen, who was hiding under the windowsill, did not get up immediately, but still leaned his ear against the bed and listened quietly.
I heard the room quiet for a while, and a slight sound of footsteps spread.
The head of the family slowly looked up and saw a tall man walking out from behind the barrier.
"Mr. Luo!" The head of the He family shouted, and immediately stood up from the main seat.
The man called "Master Luo" looked at the other party, nodded slightly, and said, "You did a good job in this matter! After these medicinal materials are collected, I will escort them to Daliang in person! But you can rest assured that before this, I will help you destroy the other two families and let you completely control the resources of the entire Yishan County!"
Upon hearing this, the head of the He family immediately showed a smile on his face and said with a smile: "With Lord Luo's ability, even the worship of the Wang family was killed. He naturally believed it! However, although the Wang family was already fish on the slaughter board, the farmer... I heard that they were catching up with the new magistrate, and that master named Liu Donglin was also attracted by them, which may not be easy to deal with!"
When Lord Luo heard this, he waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "It's okay! I know that the magistrate named Nong, although this person knows some martial arts, his realm is only a mere mere mere mere mere mere mere mere mere merely! As for that Liu Donglin... I have never seen this person, but I heard from my younger brother that this person's realm is also in the realm of the realm. It is hard to explain which realm is, but as long as I have not reached the fifth realm, everything will still be under my control..."
"Besides... this person dared to slap my brother in public a while ago. Just based on this matter alone, this person must give me an explanation, and I must teach him a lesson..."
"Yes, it's so, it's so!" He nodded when the head of the He family heard this. He naturally knew about the humiliation of He Yuming and Luo Yang in the Welcoming Building. However, the man named Liu Donglin was not something he could afford, so he could only find an opportunity to explain to Luo Heng. Unexpectedly, Luo Heng had already known about it at this moment.
The head of the He family said: "Since Zhao Yuanzheng's death, only his disciples have been left in the Wang family's powerful worship, but this person is not enough to see in front of Lord Luo's hands! So I have already ordered the servants to eat up the Wang family's property... I just don't know how to deal with the farmer now?"
Luo Heng sat on the chair, pondered for a while, and asked, "Do you know where the medicine forests in the Agricultural Palace are?"
The head of the He family nodded and said, "I know! The medicinal forests and medicinal fields of the farmer's house are not in the county, but in the deep mountains ten miles east of the county town. Speaking of which... Lord Luo, the precious medicines you are looking for, have a lot of output in the medicinal mountains of the farmer's house..."
"Since that's the case, then just send someone to grab it!" Luo Heng said directly.
