Chapter 41: Du He's Big Move

Du He left the Duke of Yiguo's mansion, returned home, went straight into the study, and sat on the collapse in dismay, with great worries.

"If the Yin Yuanwei had nothing to do with the Liu Mansion's family extermination case, why did he choose to commit suicide after being subdued by Zhen Jian?"

"But why did the saint do this? Why did he use such a despicable trick to deal with his ministers? If he wants to kill me, it is so simple, why should he spend so much effort..."

These two key points form a paradox and are something that Du He has never been able to figure out.

"If I were really a saint... how should I protect myself..."

Although the world in this book was created by Du He himself, he must follow the rules of this world here. The emperor is the greatest, and all the world is the imperial land. This is an unshakable point.

"Build a private army? Get a firearm? Then rebel? But I don't have that courage..."

Du He experienced another sleepless night, thinking all night long. When it was almost dawn, he was too sleepy and fell asleep on the collapse. He only slept for two hours. Wang Danian came in to clean the study and woke Du He up.

Du He stood up and rubbed his eyes. Seeing that it was Wang Danian, he couldn't help frowning and said coldly: "I will clean the study myself from now on. No one is allowed to come in without my permission."

Wang Dainian was stunned when he heard this: "Shaolang, what's wrong with you? Am I not cleaning it?"

Du He stood up and rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "You are Li Yao's person, you betrayed me."

When Wang Dainian heard this, he felt that he was greatly humiliated. He suddenly threw down the rag and said angrily: "Shaolang! You can beat me and scold me no matter how you beat me and scold me! But you can't wrong me like this! I grew up with you. Shaolang, you know best about my character. How could I betray you? I... I... Woowuwu..." As he said, he began to cry.

Du He was stunned by his operation. The big man cried as soon as he said he could cry. There was no one else. When Du He thought of Wang Danian being anxious than anyone else when he got smallpox in Ci County, he immediately felt soft and stepped forward and said, "Okay, the big man cried, what do you think, don't cry."

"Shaolang, you wronged me!" Wang Danian grinned and cried while crying, "I went to my mistress's place, but it was all for Shaolang, but Shaolang actually said that I had betrayed..."

"Okay, stop crying, come, stop crying..." Du He kept persuading, and Wang Danian cried more and more vigorously.

Du He was annoyed and glared and shouted: "Okay! Stop crying!"

Wang Danian was so scared that he immediately stopped talking, as if he was standing there, standing there, sobbing from time to time, like a beaten child.

Du He pushed his forehead with his finger: "I'm talking to you with a good voice, but you don't listen, and I'm going to make me angry."

Wang Danian said stubbornly: "I did not betray Shaolang!"

Du He asked, "Then you are still doing things for Li Yao, so you are so busy that you can't see you for many days."

Wang Dainian said: "I am also for your good things to you, Shaolang. My mistress was ordered by Alang to come back to take care of you, Du family and Shaolang. I was afraid that she would make things difficult for Shaolang in the future, so I went to please her and say good things to Shaolang in front of her. I can't let Shaolang please her in person."

"Oh? You said nice things for me too? What did you say?" Du He looked at him curiously.

Wang Dainian said: "Shoulang, you are a young hero. You are very skilled. You chase dozens of bandits by one person, chopping them down to the point of falling water."

Du He grabbed two more pieces of Hu cakes, wrapped them in paper, walked out of the kitchen, came to the intermediate yard, and shouted: "Zhen Jian!"

Zhen Jian quickly came to him and saluted and asked, "What's the matter with Shaolang?"

Du He handed him a piece of Hu cake and said, "Go out with me to buy something and prepare a carriage."

"Here." Zhen Jian took Hu Bing and went to prepare a carriage.

Du He doesn't like to ride a carriage, but when he comes to buy things, he must have a carriage, so he shows off his old operations. He drives and Zhen Jian sits in the carriage. The master and servant are so upside down. Looking at the entire Chang'an City, it's probably only Du He.

Du He and Zhen Jian came to Yashang. As soon as they entered the door, a fat man came forward happily: "Oh, Du Shaolang, long time no see, are you here to sell the land again?"

Du He looked closely and found that it was the fat man who bought his field last time.

Du He smiled and shook his head and said, "I'm here to buy things this time."

The fat man raised his eyebrows when he heard this, approached him and whispered: "I have many shops, and I have to sell everything. What do I want to buy? Why not say it. If I have one in my shop, I will sell it to you at a low price."

Du He felt that this fat man was not polite. The last time he sold the land was very likely to be the one he had spread, so he shook his head: "Sorry, I don't plan to do business with you this time."

The fat man smiled and said, "Ah, it's okay, it's okay, business is unsuccessful, and I hope to get closer to Shaolang in the future..."

"Okay, I'll work together again in the future." Du He responded perfunctorily and came to the counter of the Yashang.

The counter of the Yashang is very long, about four or five meters long. When the counter is over, there is a door. From the way in, it is a trading place with a larger space. The ones sold here... are people.

Tang Lu strictly prohibited the trafficking of Tang people, so most of the people sold here were aliens. These people were locked in cages with ropes tied with their hands and feet. Only those beautiful orcs were not tied with their hands and feet. After all, these women were arrogant and expensive, so they were sold at a good price by relying on their beauty. They must not let the ropes wear out their flesh.

Du He didn't expect that he would break into the slave-selling room, so he took a look and planned to go out.

A thin and tall tooth suddenly moved to block the door and said, "Why are two guests here and leaving? Could it be the spies from other tooth stores?"

"Your dog eyes are blind!" Du He glared and shouted, "I'm Du He!"

When Du He Daming mentioned, the audience suddenly became quarrels.

"Is this the one who prodigal son Du He? He who goes to the brothel every day to book a house?"

"It turns out that Du He looks like this. He has only heard of his name and has never seen anyone. Today he finally saw the deity."

"He has a thin body, and he dares to go to the brothel every day to book a house..."

Facing the unfriendly words of everyone, Du He seemed to have not heard them. After all, he never cared about reputation. No real money or silver could come from these false reputations? They were the source of his happiness.

"It turned out to be Du Shaolang, I was disrespectful." The thin and tall teeth raised their hands and saluted, "What are Shaolang selling this time?"

"I won't sell things, I'll buy things this time."

"What do Shaolang buy?"

Du He said: "Can you find a secluded place to talk about it?"

"Of course, Shaolang, please follow me." The tall and thin teeth said, and opened a secret door hidden on the wall, spreading his hands, "Shaolang, please, the private room."

"Oh, there is still a private room here." Du He smiled, followed Yazi and walked into the secret door.

There was a narrow passage in the secret door. Within the distance, several branches appeared, which made him feel like he had entered the KTV venue.

He chose a secluded private room and asked Du He to take his seat. Du He did not sit down quickly, but knocked on all four walls first, confirming that the walls were very thick, and then sat down.

Yazi smiled and said, "Look at Shaolang is so vigilant. The things you buy this time should be very important."

Du He denied: "No, I just don't want others to gossip me now. After all, you know that what I buy or sell now will cause a stir in Chang'an, which makes me very uncomfortable."

"I can understand Shaolang's feelings." Yazi smiled and nodded, "We are in the Yajia, and we meet the requirements for any customer. What Shaolang buys from us will never be revealed."

Du He said, "Then I want this." As he said that, he took out a piece of paper from his arms, spread it out, and looked at Yazi. There were two words written on the paper - saltpeter.

What Du He wants to buy today is the raw materials needed to make gunpowder, so he is extremely careful. He separates the three raw materials. Wang Dainian is responsible for buying sulfur, while he is responsible for buying saltpeter. As for charcoal, he can cook it himself.
