Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 788 - 214 Reaping Great Rewards, Obtained the Wolf S

Zhao Ya said, "There’s no hurry. Just find an appropriate opportunity to hand it to in front of everyone. That way, you can rid yourself of suspicion and avoid the ditations of those with ulterior motives."

Chen Jie imdiately clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Commandery Princess."

With the deal done, Zhao Ya glanced at Chen Jie and said, "Chen Jiusi, you certainly know how to do business, don’t you? After all this, I feel like I haven’t made any money, and instead, I seem to have taken a loss."

Chen Jie smiled and responded, "Commandery Princess, your generous heart cannot be considered a loss, only an investnt in your subordinates."

"Investnt? What do you an by investnt?"

Zhao Ya looked at Chen Jie with confusion. Chen Jie smiled and explained, "Investing money or other resources for the purpose of achieving a certain goal is called investnt."

Zhao Ya understood and said, "Then consider it an investnt by . However, Chen Jiusi, rember that you are in grave danger right now. Only by relying on the Ruyang Royal Mansion can you survive. Don’t let any other improper thoughts arise."

At these words, Chen Jie imdiately clasped his fists and said, "Rest assured, Commandery Princess, I understand."

The Commandery Princess left after saying this and then sent people to Huangzhou Prefecture to allocate the relevant materials, including low-level Tai Sui Pills.

Why go to Huangzhou Prefecture? It was because Zhao Ya’s third brother held the position of Darugachi there.

It was also for this reason that when Zhao Ya was promoted to Martial Arts Steward of Hubei Road, she established her headquarters in Huangzhou Prefecture. If she had gone to another State Mansion, such as Xiangyang City, that was King Qi’s territory.

In fact, Ruyang King and King Qi had split the entire Hubei Road between themselves.

As a result, all the major prefectures of Hubei were interspersed with their subordinates and the court’s people; it was quite chaotic.

However, there were two main strongholds. One was Xiangyang City, under King Qi’s managent, and the Darugachi of Xiangyang City was from King Qi Residence.

The other, Huangzhou Prefecture, was Ruyang King’s territory. The Darugachi here was Ruyang King’s third son.

That was Zhao Ya’s third brother.

However, this third brother was not Zhao Ya’s actual brother. He was an adoptive son of Ruyang King, not his biological child.

As the Princely Heir of Ruyang King would not easily visit a place like Huangzhou Prefecture, an edge of Ruyang King’s influence, he would stay central, close to Ruyang King.

Since the Darugachi of Huangzhou Prefecture was Zhao Ya’s third brother, she could easily mobilize the resources of Huangzhou Prefecture.

This included a large amount of herbs, Tai Sui Pills, and even higher-grade elixir recipes, weapons, and secret martial arts manuals.

Let’s note that the Breakthrough Pills capable of advancing one’s martial arts level were strictly controlled by the court, especially above the Wolf Smoke Realm. To obtain them, one had to pay a certain price.

Elixir recipes, on the other hand, were not included.

This is understandable, as modern society restricts firearms, but blueprints for firearms are not so difficult to acquire.

The sa goes for elixirs; refining them requires many conditions. First, the difficulty of finding the ingredients, and second, even if one gathers all the ingredients, a skilled pharmacist is needed. Without a skilled pharmacist,

even with the herbs, one could not refine the elixirs.

Therefore, control over elixir recipes is not strict.

With Zhao Ya’s authority, she was able to deploy elixir recipes of this level, even without having to report it.

Thus, Zhao Ya left, and Chen Jie also returned to Mianshui City.

anwhile, the Fishing Guild was still engaged in tense disaster relief efforts. Chen Jie returned to Mianshui City, and the first thing he did was not to see Su Yunjin, although he truly yearned to rush to see his wife.

But there were more important matters at hand.

That was to sort out the guild regulations.

The Fishing Guild, the Headquarters, forrly the entrance of White Tiger Hall, was crowded with a group of people, all disciples of White Tiger Hall, crowded densely and filling the entire front courtyard of White Tiger Hall.

The surrounding commoners curiously watched the spectacle before them.

At that mont, one could see in the front courtyard of White Tiger Hall two long benches and four disciples wielding cudgels, waiting there.

Chen Jiusi sat on a grand chair at the main entrance, and Chen Heng expressed his concern beside him, "Gang Leader, isn’t this too... Master Zhou and Four Happiness Hall Master are both high-ranking mbers of our guild, and now we’re about to beat them publicly, in full view, isn’t this losing their face? If soone with intentions makes use of this..."

What Chen Heng said made sense. Zhou Chu and Si Xi were not the sa figures from before; they were now big shots in the Fishing Guild, figures who could make the whole Mianshui County tremble with a stomp of their feet.

And Chen Jie was about to publicly beat them, essentially throwing their dignity to the ground to be trampled.

How could they face themselves? If they were small-minded and failed to see the bigger picture, they might harbor resentnts, and if soone with a sche stirred the pot, it could easily lead to trouble.

Thus, Chen Heng was quite anxious, and he even sent soone to the inner courtyard asking the wife to co out and persuade the Gang Leader.

The Gang Leader couldn’t co back and be so ruthless. Trouble would surely arise.

However, Su Yunjin did not co. Instead, she said, "The back courtyard doesn’t interfere with the matters of the front courtyard. My husband has his reasoning, and I will not intervene."

With Su Yunjin’s words passed on, Chen Heng felt helpless. Since the wife wasn’t intervening, the beating of Zhou Chu and Si Xi was inevitable.

Chen Heng anxiously stood behind Chen Jie.

And as Xiao Hu got news, he too returned. But he did not try to convince Chen Jie, only silently stood aside.

When Chen Jie saw that the gathering was large enough, he imdiately shouted, "Bring out Zhou Chu and Si Xi."

At his command, Zhou Chu and Si Xi stepped forward. Chen Jie looked at them while they both kept their heads down, silent.

All eyes were on Chen Jie’s actions, and he faced his two best brothers, who were about to be punished for taking a stand for him.
