Traveling through ancient times.

Jiang Yizhou nodded and asked Wei Ke to give him a stack of banknotes. "I see that your injuries are serious. You must take good care of yourself to avoid any hidden dangers. You can go down and rest without worry."

She has persisted in practicing every day for more than a year, and her physical fitness has reached 100 points, her strength 150, and other important attributes have also improved a lot.

Even her life force had increased by nearly ten points, which meant that, unless she died suddenly from an accident, her life span would have increased by more than ten years compared to when she first came here.

Moreover, as long as she continues to persevere, restoring the original owner's lifespan is not a dream.

You have to know that the original owner had a lifespan of over eighty years.

Moreover, Jiang Yizhou was looking forward to it. If he cultivated to the predetermined lifespan of the original owner and continued to cultivate, could the generated energy be transformed into the internal energy of Liao Qi and others?

Therefore, Jiang Yizhou's current strength is one point stronger than Liao Qi's. In addition, he has learned a basic technique of observing qi, so he can easily see the injuries on Qi Hao's body.

Qi Hao's impression of the head of the Jiang family still remains from more than a year ago. The power and accuracy of the small stone that the other party kicked casually showed some skills, which was considered good among ordinary people, but definitely not among masters.

So when he heard the other party say that he was seriously injured, and even had hidden injuries, he just thought that the other party was concerned and was trying to win over his subordinates.

Qi Hao replied: "Go back to the master, it's just some minor injuries, just take a short rest."

Jiang Yizhou just smiled faintly and did not argue.

This time, he handed in such a heavy token of his allegiance, which meant that he had truly become her subordinate.

Jiang Yizhou has always been kind to her subordinates. Even if they have not yet reached the point of being truly loyal to her, she will not treat them unfairly.

On the other side, Liao Qi saw Qi Hao's look and wanted to say something but hesitated, but in the end he said nothing.

Thinking back to the past year or so, since the very beginning when he had been practicing boxing with the master of the family, he had deliberately let the opponent win, and the opponent still couldn't get through a few moves by him.

In the end, he didn't need to let his opponent win, and the opponent was able to fight him back and forth.

Later on, he needed to give his all to tie the game.

Later on, he couldn't withstand more than a few moves from his opponent.

Nowadays, the master no longer seeks him for practice.

Because practicing with him is not much different from practicing with a wooden stake, and it is actually very tiring.

It has been three or four months since the master of the family asked him to practice, so his strength must have improved a lot... He calculated that even the most powerful killer he had ever met would not be able to gain any advantage in front of the master of the family.

Thinking of this, he gained more confidence in being able to avenge his family and restore the Liao family's former glory.

So when he saw Qi Hao's look, he thought: Some things can only be understood more deeply if you experience and verify them yourself.

Qi Hao took the banknote, glanced at the denomination and the feel, and thought that there were probably about one hundred taels in this stack.

When he followed Ning Jianren before, he had never trusted him with money. He only received less than ten taels of silver a month.

This number may be higher than that of ordinary servants, but it has to be used for transportation, boats, accommodation and hotels. How can this little money be enough for frequent travel?

Qi Hao choked up and said, "Yes, Patriarch."

After Qi Hao left, the topic returned to how to deal with the people coming from above.

Liao Qi said angrily, "I didn't expect Ning Jianren to bite you at this time. I just heard the news brought back by Qi Hao. The two superiors from Kyoto must be using this as an excuse to control you."

Jiang Yizhou thought that Ning Jianren's behavior of biting her even if he died was in line with his personality.

This matter is indeed a bit tricky, but from the moment she decided to produce cement, she was destined to be targeted.

In other words, from the moment she decided to leave the backyard, she was destined to fight against the rules of this world.

What she encountered before were just rumors. The reason why rumors can hurt people is that you care about them, and then they can make you irreparable.

It’s different now. These people are the real exploiting class, who can devour people alive without leaving any trace.

If she wants to go further and stand higher in the future, these are the necessary steps.

There is a saying: The first step in a long march.

and so……

Jiang Yizhou tapped the base of his other hand with his index finger. After a long pause, he slowly said, "Those people deliberately leaked the news that they were going to investigate me, but they didn't put it in the paperwork, nor did they formally send anyone to notify me to cooperate with the investigation. It can be seen that they deliberately let me know in advance, and then probed my attitude and reaction. In other words, they let me know in advance that I was being targeted, and put pressure on me."

Liao Qi: "Then what? If the owner gives them the formula of cement, will they be able to let him off the hook?"

Jiang Yizhou laughed: "Let them off the hook? Just a cement formula can satisfy them? Or they want to possess it completely, so they will try to erase all this without anyone noticing..."

Liao Qi blurted out subconsciously, "Do they want to..." wipe out our entire Yunshan Farm?

Jiang Yizhou said calmly: "How is it impossible?"

From her shallow knowledge of history, she knew that some officials, in order to smooth over some things, would treat people in a village or a county, let alone a small mountain village, as nothing more than numbers in their eyes.

There is nothing they can't do for their own wealth, glory and bright future.

Liao Qi wanted to say something, but suddenly he thought of what had happened to his family.

Although their escort agency is not considered to be one of the famous and prestigious ones, it is still a household name in the local area, with dozens of escorts guarding the agency.

However, after being targeted by those people, his family was destroyed within a month.

Dozens of lives were lost, but he later learned that such a tragic case of family annihilation was only distortedly discussed in the local area for a period of time and then was left unresolved.

The tragic endings of so many people are no bigger than the splash caused by a stone falling into the water.

Thinking of this, Liao Qi felt sweat on his back.

Was his newly-risen hope for revenge going to be aborted in the face of these powerful forces?

Liao Qi's voice trembled a little, "Master, then...what should we do now?"

Jiang Yizhou said: "If my guess is correct, they should have sent people to my Yunshan Farm to investigate the truth."

Liao Qi was shocked. What if those people got the formula or took the workers away? Wouldn't that be...

"I'll go check it out right away..."

Jiang Yizhou: "No hurry. Our farm's defense is more than enough to deal with ordinary people. They won't take action during the day."

"I'll go to ..."

Jiang Yizhou: "What are you going to do?"

Liao Qi: "Stop them from investigating."

Jiang Yizhou: "How to stop it?"

Liao Qi paused for a moment and said, "I... killed them."

Jiang Yizhou continued to persuade him: "And then?"
