Traveling through ancient times.

Liao Qi looked at Jiang Yizhou's deep and calm eyes, and he knew he couldn't fool him this time.

Or rather, the lady had doubts about him from the very beginning.

He did not reveal his identity as soon as he arrived, mainly because he felt that this was just a temporary stepping stone for him.

But from the past six months of getting along with each other, I found that this may not only be a springboard, but also a real platform.

Although this platform is still a little small and low, judging by the character and means currently displayed by the young lady, it will definitely become a better platform!

Thinking of this, he said, "Oh, Miss, last time you said that you wanted to add a few long-term workers to the farm. I want to tell you the details later."

Jiang Yizhou understood the other party's implication and followed suit: "Sure, I also want to take a walk later."

After the meal, everyone went their separate ways.

Jiang Yizhou and Liao Qi came to the reception room in the front yard and sat down according to their priorities. Wei Ke followed silently beside them and poured them tea.

Liao Qi looked at Wei Ke.

Jiang Yizhou said: "We are all family here, just speak frankly."

Liao Qi understood that Wei Ke’s identity was not ordinary.

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "I know the boy next to him... Qihao."

Jiang Yizhou said "oh", took a sip of tea, and waited for what was to come.

Liao Qi: "I wonder if Miss is aware of the major event that caused turmoil in the entire Zezhou Mining Company some time ago, the Jiang'an County Carbon Mine."

Jiang Yizhou nodded calmly: "I've heard a little bit about it."

She also learned not long ago that Ning Jianren had pledged all of the Jiang family's property not to directly bribe the Zezhou official, but to use the money to get into the carbon stone mine business in Jiang'an County, and used it as a springboard to get to know the Zezhou official.

If I could know it in advance, maybe...

Even if they knew, there would be no other possibility, because at that time the other party had already seized the Jiang family's property and had already established connections with that side.

Even if she wanted to ruin things, she didn't have the right people to help.

However, Jiang Yizhou now thinks this is not a bad thing.

The pottery factory here has been using the old method to make pottery, but the temperature cannot be raised, so it is impossible to make more advanced ceramics.

It would be different if I had carbon stone. Then I might be able to exchange a better ceramic process flow from the system.

Liao Qi saw that Jiang Yizhou was not surprised at all when he heard that he knew Qihao and the carbon mine in Jiang'an County. He thought to himself, the young lady is indeed investigating in secret.

I just don't know how much the other party knows.

But now that I have decided to use this place as a platform, now is the best opportunity to be open and honest.

Liao Qi: "When you first met me, I told you that we were fleeing, that my father was ill, and that I had nowhere else to go."

Jiang Yizhou: "Just now you said that you know Qihao, so is he the one you really want to join?"

Liao Qi: “Yes and no.”

Jiang Yizhou did not respond. Liao Qi paused and continued: "In fact, the Carbon Stone Mountain originally belonged to three families, the Liao family, the Qi family, and the Huo family."

"These three families are considered wealthy in the area. The Liao family came from an escort agency, the Qi family opened a martial arts school, and the Huo family was a branch of the Huo family in Zezhou who moved there later. They had a Jinshi who was said to be working in Jiangzhou. The Liao family first discovered the carbon stone on the mountain, thinking that this matter could not be concealed, and the family could not afford it, so they approached the Qi and Huo families to discuss mining together."

"They agreed immediately. The Huo family said they would use their connections to get a mining license. Then our two families would take turns guarding the mine to prevent it from being discovered by outsiders."

"But we didn't get the mining license. Instead, we received news that our escort agency had an accident. A group of bandits killed and robbed people. My uncle and cousin died on the spot. Later, in order to compensate customers for their goods and the families of the deceased escorts, we lost everything. It can be said that we fell from the clouds to hell overnight."

"During that time, people came to our house every day to collect debts and cause trouble. My father knew it must be because of the mine. He thought that such great wealth was not something that ordinary people like us could afford. In order to save his life, my father announced that he would sell all the land and houses. Sure enough, a businessman named Zhou took over immediately, and then my father took mother, me, my cousin and my sister to escape. But even so, those people did not intend to let us go, and they chased us all the way. In the end..."

Jiang Yizhou: "Did you escape?"

Liao Qi nodded sadly. "About two months ago, I finally found out their whereabouts. When we were escaping, those people were chasing us closely, so we tried to escape separately. We finally managed to hide it, and I was separated from them."

Jiang Yizhou: "Qi Hao, is that Qi Hao from the Qi family?"

Liao Qi nodded, and Jiang Yizhou thought, what difference does it make whether the name is changed or not?

Liao Qi said: "When our escort agency was targeted, the Qi family martial arts school was also targeted by a force. It was said that someone went there to cause trouble, and somehow someone died. Then Qi Hao's family was arrested. Qi Hao wanted to find someone to rescue his family, but he found that even the servants around him betrayed him. He knew that the other party was so powerful that they had all-powerful hands and eyes, so he had to flee for his life overnight."

"I only found out about Qi Hao's coming here later, so I thought that our two families were both victims, and we shared the same suffering, so we joined forces. I didn't expect that he had already hooked up with Ning Jianren and wanted to join the game in another way. So after he knew about my existence, he even wanted to..."

"Want to kill you?"

"He was probably afraid that I would reveal his identity. If it weren't for you that day, I would have died there."

Jiang Yizhou: "Now he knows you are here with me."

The implication is, why didn't the other party attack you? It even seems that Ning Jianren doesn't know the relationship between you and Qihao.

Liao Qi: "Because, he is also walking on thin ice next to Ning Jianren. Ning Jianren got into the game because of the information he provided, and now he has climbed up the ladder. He seems to be trying to erase all evidence for the sake of his future. So..."

"So not only is he not dealing with you now, he's even hiding your identity, and is even thinking of using me to contain Ning Jianren?"

Liao Qi sighed: "That's probably the case."

Jiang Yizhou: "So he was the one who told you that Ning Jianren hooked up with the Zezhou official?"

Liao Qi nodded.

Jiang Yizhou sneered in his heart. In the original owner's memory, Ning Jianren had always been smooth sailing because there was no little butterfly like him to flap its wings.

During this period of time, they had already moved to Zezhou, and Qihao also became the chief steward.

And he completely abandoned the people in Fusong Town, including Jiang Mingxin and Jiang Zijun.

However, unlike the original owner who was alone, Jiang Zijun had the support of his father and brother. Even though only the empty shell of the Jiang residence was left, it was eventually occupied by them.

Jiang Yizhou also has not forgotten the scene when Ning Jianren killed him without hesitation when he found that he was no longer "weak".

Qi Hao approached her step by step, with the cold murderous intent in his eyes without any hesitation.

Such a person, no matter what kind of relationship he has with Ning Jianren, is absolutely unreliable.
