Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

It was just as Xiao Yun had guessed.    

They first followed the thief in, and then the thief was deliberately discovered. They lured out all the defensive functions of the workshop, and then the three of them took advantage of this opportunity. On one hand, they hid while no one was tracking them. On the other hand, they also looked for loopholes in the workshop's defense.    

This loophole was quite obvious. This place was not an army. Although it was also closed off, there was almost no control over the places where the people lived, just like the towns outside.    

Hence, they chose a few families that did not have a lot of connections. Those families with fewer relatives and friends directly captured their families and forced them to submit.    

It was just a group of artisans with wages.    

They did not need to risk their lives for the Xiao family.    

Furthermore, their family members had been captured, and their lives were in the hands of the other party. What was there to consider? He would do whatever he asked. He wouldn't ask for anything more, he wouldn't even say a single word!    

Just like that, the three of them successfully concealed themselves. Furthermore, with the help of the three families, they gained a relatively legal identity.    

And the three of them had a clear division of labor.    

One of them had a rough understanding of smelting technology, and he was in charge of drawing blueprints.    

The other was an expert in stealth and assassination, and he was the one who destroyed the furnace.    

The last one was an expert in Light-body Technique, and he was the only one who had connections with the outside world.    

Of course, Xiao Yun was still very interested in this Light-body Technique. He even rushed to the cellar to ask questions.    

Just as he walked to the entrance of the cellar, Han Sui said with a bitter face, "That... Young Master, if you have any questions, I can help you pass the message. You better not go and see it yourself."    

Xiao Yun said, "I have already said it? They are all honest?"    

Han Sui smiled bitterly and said, "Previously, they were not honest and all of them looked fearless. At that time, they really could not do anything to them. We secretly used some of the branding iron and the like to torture them, but we could not pry open their mouths. Young master is still the best. "    

"Why did it have to do with me again?"    

"Young master only said one sentence, Prime Minister Wu... No, Manager Wu sent someone over, that person... Tsk tsk, what a good tactic. After coming here, he did not drink tea or eat and went straight into the cellar. In just two hours, the three of them have already confessed!"    

Speaking up to this point, Han Sui bared his teeth and said, "At that time, this lowly one took a look out of curiosity... This was good. He even threw up the first half of the night's meal. I almost vomited out my bile! The person Manager Wu sent over was truly a devil! How could there be such a ruthless person in this world? The key was that he seemed to have done nothing at all. When he came out, his face was full of smiles. As he wipes away the blood on his hands, he also asks for a bowl of tea from us..."    

After saying that, Han Sui subconsciously trembled twice. His face was also somewhat pale. It was obvious that he had thought of some things that he did not want to remember.    

Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said," Looks like I have to meet this ruthless person first today. "    

Han Sui replied with a bitter face and hurriedly went to make arrangements.    

The ruthless person did not leave. Instead, he followed Wu Xi's orders and thoroughly investigated this place once more to see if there were any fish that slipped through the net.    

Very soon, Xiao Yun waited for this ruthless man to come.    

He was in his early forties and had a smile on his face. That smile always gave people a "shy" feeling, as if he was afraid of strangers, but was also very polite.    

After seeing Xiao Yun, he hurriedly rushed forward two or three steps. When he was seven steps away, he plopped to the ground and kowtowed three times to Xiao Yun!    

After that, he raised his head and said loudly, "I am Third Yaen, a peasant. Greetings, Saint Xiao!"    

Xiao Yun was stunned by his words. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. He wanted to stop him, but it was too late.    

He slightly leaned to the side and avoided the other party's big gift. He said with a bitter face, "I do not know if you are a commoner, but I am really a commoner. Although he had the title of Saint Grade, he had no official position. Secondly, I don't owe you anything. If you kneel down like this... I'm afraid it will cost me my life. "    

Third Yaen shook his head and said, "Saint Xiao doesn't know. Saint Xiao has indeed helped the peasants."    

"Huh? How come I don't know?"    

Xiao Yun was confused.    

Third Yaen said, "It's like this. I was originally Elder Wu's direct subordinate. Prime Minister Wu was arrested and demoted, and something big happened to me as well. Without the official body, the enemy came knocking on his door. The peasant had gone through a lot of hardships. They were unable to protect their families and let them be harmed by the villains. As slaves and prostitution, the peasants only hated themselves for being powerless. They wanted to be full of hot blood, but there was nothing they could do about it. It was also at that time that Saint Xiao saved Elder Wu. Not only did it cause the old and old Wu to be imprisoned, it also gave him another kind of resource and strength. Because of this, the peasants were pardoned. As for the families of the peasants... They were also rescued from the crisis... That's why Saint Xiao has helped the peasants, he has given them a new lease on life!"    

He spoke seriously. If someone did not understand what he said, they would probably believe him.    

This was the truth, but the emotions were definitely not the same.    

Instead of saying that he should thank Xiao Yun, it would be more accurate to say that he should be loyal to Wu Xi.    

If one thought about it carefully, there would always be a bit of a far-fetched saying.    

However, Xiao Yun also understood that the other party was definitely an important member of Wu Xi. The dirty work that he usually did should be done by him.    

Nodding his head, Xiao Yun said, "Alright, this young master will accept your good intentions. But why aren't you standing up? You paying such a big bow makes me feel like I have become a memorial tablet. It's inauspicious."    

After Xiao Yun said so, Third Yaen stood up unwillingly. Then, he stood in front of Xiao Yun like a little wife who had been bullied. He was very hesitant.    

Xiao Yun frowned and said, "When Prime Minister Wu asked you to come, what else did he say?"    

He was still used to calling Wu Xi Prime Minister Wu.    

As the saying went, a donkey would not fall even if it died.    

Xiao Yun hoped that Wu Xi would still have this kind of spirit.    

Third Yaen took a deep breath and answered seriously, "The pavilion master said..."    

He immediately changed the way he addressed ___.    

"Saint Xiao is someone who wants to do big things, and this workshop is also the most important part of Saint Xiao's plan. We can't afford to cause any trouble in this place. The pavilion master said that although Han Sui is capable, he can't afford to cause any trouble in this place. However, he is not scheming enough. He will definitely not do dirty and tiring work. So, he asked the young one to come over and help him. He also wanted to protect the places that Saint Xiao paid attention to. "    

Xiao Yun raised his eyelids and nodded. He smiled and said, "After Prime Minister Wu experienced big things, he has become a lot more intelligent. If it was before, he would not have thought of this."    

He rubbed his head and continued, "Then you should help Han Sui a little from now on. The two of you should work together. This workshop... Just like what Prime Minister Wu said, there must not be any trouble! Oh, right. The interrogation is almost over, right? The information that was sent to me last time was not complete."    

Third Yaen looked at the sky and said with some difficulty, "Young master, you still have to attend Prime Minister Qiu's birthday tomorrow. You should rest well tonight. It's almost three o'clock, this..."    

The way he addressed him changed once again.    

The two of them had obviously not spoken much, but they had actually gotten closer to each other.    

It was as if the other party had steeled his heart to be his confidant.    

This kind of person who sought to gain power and was willing to resort to any means... In fact, Xiao Yun did not hate him either.    

"It doesn't matter. This young master is still young. It won't be a problem for me to endure the whole night. After all... this is a big deal!"    

Third Yaen gritted his teeth and subconsciously looked left and right. Then, he said in a deep voice, "The people who came, according to their own instructions, are from the Zhao family."    

Xiao Yun's heart skipped a beat as he thought to himself.    

But then, he was shocked again. He hurriedly asked, "You said... according to their own instructions? You have something to say!"
