History's Strongest Son-In-Law Living With The In-Laws

Chapter 115: The plan to exterminate the Xu family

Translator: 549690339

Xu Qianqian, don’t go too far. This concerns the livelihood of 100000 people, ” Shen lang said with grief and indignation.

Xu Qianqian laughed coldly. that’s the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s business. It has nothing to do with us.

Shen lang said, ” Xu Guangyun, Xu Qianqian. Have you forgotten the lesson I taught you? ” Why did you come to provoke me?”

“That’s right,” Xu Qianqian said disdainfully,”we’ve fallen into your hands again and again in the past, and our reputations have been tarnished. But so what? Did you even hurt a single hair on our bodies?”

He really didn’t.

Xu Qianqian sneered, ” so, your victory is only a spiritual victory. It’s a false prosperity. Did you change the predicament of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu? None at all. The 80000 people surrounding the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu have become even more ferocious.”

Xu Guangyun picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and said,”Shen lang, you did win the engagement banquet. But what did you get in return? It was just a moment of speed, and other than that, he had gained nothing. My Xu family’s reputation is bad, but Yingluo has already married herself off, and I’ve thought it through. What’s the point of having a good reputation? I’m a big businessman, I just need to make money.”

Shen lang, didn’t you ask us why we were so confident when we provoked you again? ” “Look, what’s that?” Xu Guangyun shouted.

Shen lang could not help but look at the hall.

There was a plaque hanging there with four big golden words: Tiannan, xuxiu.

The inscription was actually personally written by the Crown Prince.

No wonder every character was made of gold. Just the four characters of Xu Guangyun had cost hundreds of Jin of gold.

This was an unparalleled honor and a huge protective talisman.

Compared to the calligraphy that the Crown Prince had personally bestowed upon them, what was the Xu father and daughter’s ruined reputation worth?

“This is where our confidence comes from!” Xu Qianqian said smugly, ” we have to thank you, Shen lang. We are where we are today because of your new formula. The silk dyed with your new formula is golden and luxurious. It is much more outstanding than before. The Crown Prince and the other royal families look especially noble when they wear it. It surpasses the royal families of other countries and has a higher spirit. The Crown Prince was overjoyed and bestowed it with the ink scroll.”

“It can be said that without you, Shen lang, the Crown Prince would not have rewarded you. I’m so grateful, but you won’t be able to get the credit. We’ll take away your gold dye formula without paying a single gold coin.” “This is the real benefit. What did you get?” Xu Guangyun asked.

Shen lang was so angry that he was trembling and his face was red.

Xu Qianqian said, ” Shen lang, we’re forcing you to hand over the formulas for the purple and rainbow dye. However, we will not give you a single gold coin. You have to give them to us for free.

“Stop daydreaming!” Shen lang scolded.

Xu Qianqian said, ” then you can wait for those moths to break out of their cocoons. Time is already very tight. No one in the entire Tiannan province, or even the entire state of Yue, will take your cocoon. “Unless you pay for these farmers” cocoons yourself, but do you have a workshop? Can you spin silk? Can you weave silk?”

Xu Guangyun said,”there are close to 100000 people in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s fief, and they all rely on silk for a living.” If no one collected the cocoons, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu would not be able to collect taxes. It was a small matter that they would lose money. The most important thing was how they were going to feed these 100000 people. If you can’t feed them, these 100000 mouths will eat all of you. If 100000 people go hungry, it will trigger a rebellion.”

Once the people in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu started a rebellion, the governor and the governor would immediately intervene. By then, the situation would quickly collapse.

Xu Qianqian said,”unless the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu uses your own money to buy food to feed these 100000 people.” But can you afford it with your current financial situation?”

Shen lang, you are very smart. I believe you know the consequences.

Shen lang trembled. to seal off the economy of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, you guys are really generous. Governor Zhu Rong must have personally given the order.

Xu Qianqian laughed coldly. they surrounded the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu from all directions. Do you think that this is a joke? ”

Then, Xu Qianqian said, ” Shen lang, stop struggling. Hand over the formula for the purple and rainbow dye. We’re willing to buy the cocoons of your people at half price?”

“Half price?” Xu Qianqian! Shen lang exclaimed, ” don’t go overboard! You’re asking for too much!

“Yes, half price.” Xu Qianqian said.

Once they bought the cocoons at half price, the taxes they had to pay to the palace of the Earl would be gone. The money would only be enough for the farmers to buy food.

dream on. You’re all dreaming. no! Shen lang shouted, ” I don’t believe that you’re the only one buying cocoons!

Then, Shen lang slammed the door and left, looking flustered.

“Shen lang, I’ll give you three days to consider,” Xu Qianqian said calmly.

..............................

After he returned to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, Shen Lang’s anger disappeared.

He leisurely played chess with his wife.

He won round after round, and every time he won, he would sneer at Mulan, making her extremely angry.

“Husband, what were you doing last night?” Mulan asked casually.

“No, nothing.” Shen Lang’s hair stood on end as he said,”I’m just teaching Xiao Bing to read. Can’t I do that?” Are you just going to watch Bing ‘er be useless?”

Mulan said,”just reading?” The two of them will sit on the same stool and teach each other mouth to mouth?”

Immediately, Xiao Bing’s face turned red.

“Oh right, what did you say about me?” Mulan asked.

Shen lang was complaining to Bing ‘er that Mulan was a dog in the manger. Otherwise, Bing’ er’s child would have been a few months old.

He also said that Mulan was narrow-minded and couldn’t bear to see him and Bing ‘er being in love.

Shen lang was scared out of his wits. How did his wife know about this? Did she have super hearing?

“No one told on me. I accidentally heard and saw it when I passed by.” Mulan said.

Shen lang immediately threw down his chess piece and admitted defeat. He pointed at Bing ‘er and said, ” “Wifey, it’s all her, it’s all Bing ‘er’s initiative to provoke me, you know I’m the most clean and honest person!”

husband, ” Mulan said, ” I think you’re going to exercise again today. Let’s go and play the six Animal Frolics technique.

Shen Lang’s legs trembled as he tried to escape.

However, he could not run away.

A jealous woman was, of course, very scary.

Then, Shen Lang’s shrieks that sounded like pigs being slaughtered could be heard in the courtyard.

“Ahoho ahoho!”

“Wifey, be gentle, be gentle, Yingluo.”

“Wifey, I was wrong, I was really wrong. I won’t dare to do it again!”

After another ten rounds of the six Animal Frolics technique, Shen lang was in so much pain that he wished he was dead.

........................

The next day, Shen lang looked for dumb for a heart-to-heart talk.

Dumb, I heard that the Grandmaster is going to take you to the mountains to practice? ” Shen lang asked.

Dumb nodded. yes, master said he wanted to take me as his last disciple. What’s a last disciple? ”

Shen lang was jealous. That was a master’s, which meant that he would spend the rest of his life training dumb.

“The last disciple means that you’re in charge of closing the door every night when master is sleeping,” he said.

so he’s a closed-door disciple, ” Dasha said. ersha, you’re so smart.

Shen lang sighed. dumb, if a man isn’t strong, he doesn’t have any status in the family. He’s always being bullied by women.

ersha, ” Dasha said, ” you were pressed to the ground by miss Mulan again? ”

What? Even you know about this?

Shen lang nodded and said, ” therefore, as a man, we must be strong. We can’t let women climb over our heads and do whatever they want. As men, we must know shame and be brave. Men should be strong.”

Dumb was very pleased. He also felt that his brother’s body was too weak. Now that he was going to be strong, he was of course very happy as a brother.

Shen lang stood on his tiptoes and patted dumb’s shoulder, ” so, dumb, you have to practice martial arts well. One day, you’ll be super powerful, and then you’ll find a way to teach me martial arts. That way, I’ll be able to become the master and not be bullied by my wife.

Da Sha was stunned.

After a long while, he looked particularly serious and said with force, ” “Okay, I’ll definitely work hard and become very powerful. Then, I’ll pass my kung fu to you.”

Shen lang was stunned!

Because dumb’s words were full of ritual like an oath.

Jin mucong, who was walking over, suddenly said, ” “Dumb, how about you teach me some of your martial arts?”

Dasha thought for a while. no, ” he said, ” I can’t teach you my kung fu, third fool.

Jin mucong did not reject this form of address. He said unwillingly, ” “Why? We’re good friends too.”

“Because there’s always someone who wants to beat ersha,” Dasha said.

Shen lang was instantly unhappy. Why are you telling the truth?

Aren’t you indirectly saying that I like to cause trouble?

Dumb, I suspect you’re playing dumb.

....................................

There was only one day left from the three-day time limit given by Xu Qianqian.

The cocoons of the 100000 people in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu were still not collected, and these people were becoming more and more anxious.

There were new rumors every day.

They said that Shen Lang’s young master did not save them.

They said that no one in the entire Yue country would accept their cocoons and that they could only be kept at home for nothing.

They said that someone was going to starve the 100000 people in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu to death.

The situation was getting more and more tense.

Every day, Xu Qianqian would look at the worsening situation in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu with pride.

................................................

Every day, more and more people knelt outside the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.

This morning, there were thousands of people kneeling outside.

However, no one made any trouble. No one even shouted. They just knelt outside.

Of course, the Earl would not expel these people. Instead, he sent them food and water.

The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was very popular. Even in such a situation where everyone was in a state of panic, there was no rebellion.

But humans were also very realistic.

If no one harvested the cocoons for a period of time, and these farmers did not have money to buy food, it would still lead to a great disaster.

If 100,000 people went hungry, the consequences would be too horrible to imagine.

The anger of 100000 people was enough to engulf the entire Palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.

Unless uncle Black Tortoise took out all his money to buy food to feed these 100000 people.

Shen lang gathered his emotions and walked out of the palace of the Earl again.

The moment he stepped out of the door, his expression turned into one of extreme grief, anger, and pain.

........................

Shen lang did not go to Xu Guangyun’s house. Instead, he went to Lin Mo’s house in the silk Pavilion.

“Lin family head, how about I make a deal with you?” Shen lang said, ” I will give you the formulas for the purple and rainbow dye for free. After you get these two formulas, your business will definitely boom. You will surpass the Xu family and become the number one silk merchant in Tiannan province.

Lin Mo, the master of the splendid Pavilion, had a reserved and proud expression on his face.

A few days ago, when Lin Zhuo was in trouble, he was also burning with anxiety. He was afraid that his son’s engagement with the young lady of the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an would be called off. If that happened, the Lin family would return to its original state.

In Lin Mo’s opinion, the Earl of Jing ‘an, Wu Zhaozhong, would definitely tear up the marriage contract after Lin Zhuo did such a shameful thing.

However, he did not expect the crisis to be resolved after Lin Zhuo knelt for four hours in the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an and cried for an hour in front of the Earl.

The engagement continued.

However, Lin Zhuo had a deep wound on his neck when he returned. It almost cut his main artery.

Lin Mo was a little puzzled despite his ecstasy. What were these big shots thinking? such a big scandal had happened, but it was as if nothing had happened.

However, even if Lin Zhuo was fine, Shen lang would be in trouble.

Of course, Lin Mo also knew that Shen lang was the one who framed his son, Lin Zhuo.

However, he had always been a person who spoke honeyed but had swords hidden behind his back. He didn’t like to be too ferocious on the surface.

Although the Lin family played a supporting role in the attack on the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu and the economic lockdown, they had a part to play.

Lin Mo felt great seeing Shen Lang’s misfortune.

Uncle Shen lang, those two formulas are priceless. Are you giving them to me for free? ” Lin Mo laughed.

“Yes,” Shen lang said.

“What are the conditions?” Lin Mo asked.

“Master Lin, please purchase the cocoons of the farmers in my fief,” Shen lang said.

“Shen lang, are you begging me?” Lin Mo asked.

Shen lang said indignantly, ” that’s right. I’m begging you. This concerns the livelihood of 100000 people. The heavens are kind. I beg you, Lin family head, please show mercy.

As Shen lang begged, he calculated in his mind.

The virus usually stayed dormant for about two weeks. The virus in Lin Zhuo’s body should break out in a few days.

That scene was really something to look forward to.

Lin Mo finally could not help but laugh. “Shen lang, you’ve had your day too, have you? Weren’t you omnipotent before? Weren’t you very arrogant before? Did you expect this day to come when you harmed my son, Lin Zhuo? When you caused my beautiful Pavilion to close for a month, did you expect this day to come?”

the heavens have eyes! Shen lang, it’s finally your turn to be at a dead end!

“Master Lin, are you going to watch the 100000 people on my fief starve to death?” Shen lang said with grief and anger.

Lin Mo said indifferently,’so what? I’m not the one who’s starving to death! I am looking forward to the 100000 refugees swallowing the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu alive.”

Shen lang pointed at Lin Mo and trembled. you! You’re so vicious!

Lin Mo said lightly,’same to you! Men, send the guest away!”

Shen lang, who looked down and out, was chased out by Lin Mo.

This scene was quickly reported to the Xu family.

Xu Qianqian smiled smugly. this little bastard can’t hold on any longer. He’ll be begging us tomorrow at the latest.

“He’s a good-for-nothing after all. He gave himself away at the critical moment,” Xu Guangyun said.

..............................

At night, in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.

Shen lang said calmly, ” the show is almost over. It will end tomorrow. You have to help me with what my wife is going to do next.”

Mulan nodded.

Then, Shen lang carefully used a needle to open a hole in each of the cocoons. He then poured the White powder that was wet with water into the cocoons and smoothed out the holes. There were no traces at all, and the cocoons were still intact.

Mulan’s actions were faster and more careful than Shen lang.

“Husband, what is the powder that was poured into the cocoon? I’ve never seen him before!” Mulan said.

“White phosphorus!” Shen lang said calmly.

That’s right, white phosphorus!

The White phosphorus that would burn at more than 40 degrees did not require any conditions to be triggered.

What would happen if these cocoons containing white phosphorus were transported into the Xu clan’s workshop? He didn’t need many, a few hundred was enough to be mixed in the countless cocoons.

Under the high temperature, they would burn violently and could not be put out.

The entire workshop would be set on fire, along with an astronomical amount of silk and silk.

Because Xu Qianqian was married to Zhang Jin, the Xu family expanded wildly and almost monopolized all the cocoons in the entire Tiannan province.

He had invested most of his wealth into it.

At that time, the fire would soar into the sky. How magnificent and destructive would it be!
