Behind the Yutoushan Jade Factory, a large cave was hollowed out, and frightening sounds of torture and constant wailing could be heard from inside.
Hua Jin, wearing a black brocade skirt and cape, led Lian'er, Gu Zun and Leng Niu into the cave.
Wu Tian dragged a man covered in blood to Hua Jin.
He threw the man in his hand to the ground and said respectfully to Hua Jin:
"Mother, the person in charge of the Tunshanao Jade Factory is very stubborn and refuses to recruit other accomplices."
"Gu Zun."
Hua Jin's voice was light.
Gu Zun stepped forward and silently held his hands. He happened to see Lian'er behind Hua Jin and rolled his eyes at him.
"Bring the whole family of the person in charge here!"
Hua Jin gave instructions in a low voice and sat down on a chair slowly, looking at her newly dyed nails in the light of the hole.
A large group of old people, children and women were pushed by the city guards to the person in charge of the Tunshanao Jade Factory. They surrounded him, crying and shouting. The scene was so sad that it made people want to cry.
"You, you witch!"
The man who was beaten with blood all over his body stared at Hua Jin with deep hatred in his eyes.
She smiled calmly and said:
"Don't think of me as a benevolent person just because I take good care of Beidi. It's time to be ruthless. I can even kill myself, let alone the old, weak, women and children in your family."
After saying that, Hua Jin waved and asked Wu Tian to come over.
"Go and pluck out that child's fingernails for me."
Wu Tian turned around with a stern face and found the children among the group of old, weak, women and children. He only took two steps forward when the group started crying.
The grandmother of the person in charge of the Tunshan Ao Jade Factory came forward and beat his shoulder.
"Whatever the princess wants to ask you, just answer it. When you work for the prince, has he given you any benefits? What you secretly carved is Xiao Li Wang's jade. This is not a good thing in the first place."
"Sir, tell me, you only have one son, and he is still so young. How can you bear to have his nails pulled out alive?"
The wife in charge couldn't help crying and complaining about him.
Wang Zhaolong couldn't bear it any longer. He struggled, hugged his frightened and crying son, and kowtowed to Hua Jin as if he was admitting defeat.
"I said, I said! Don't hurt my son, I said!"
How could there be a woman like Hua Jin in this world? Is she still a woman? She could actually use this trick to threaten Wang Zhaolong into submission.
Not only has Wang Zhaolong never seen her before in this life, but even Guzun Wu Tian and others have never seen such a strong woman like Hua Jin in this life.
According to Wang Zhaolong's account, the Tunshan'ao Jade Factory has various close connections with several other jade factories. Wang Zhaolong alone knows of three jade factories.
Taking this small jade factory in Tunshan Ao, the prince has a total of four jade factories. In addition to carving the Nuantian jade from Yutou Mountain, he also carved the rough stone from another indigo jade mine in the North.
Hua Jin: “Where is the indigo jade mine?”
Wang Zhaolong on the ground hugged his child tightly, his eyes a little dodgey,
"The digging was completed last year, and the entire indigo jade mine was exhausted."
The words fell silent, and for a long while, Hua Jin didn't say a word, not even a hum.
She looked at Wang Zhaolong expressionlessly, and after a long time, she sneered:
"This is the first time I've seen you prince as shameless as you. He stole things from other people's houses and stole everything from them! Haha."
Lian'er was so angry that she clenched her fists and was about to say a few words of comfort to Hua Jin.
But I heard Hua Jin say:
"Gu Zun, Wu Tian, do you hear the names of these jade factories? They will be razed to the ground. Even a blade of grass will be brought back to me."
"yes!"
"yes!"
Gu Zun and Wu Tian responded and led the troops away.
Hua Jin looked at Leng Niu again. She pointed to the depths of the cave where the moans continued.
"Keep all the fingers of those craftsmen well. From today on, they have signed a death contract with Prince Li's Mansion, and they will carve beautiful jade for Prince Li's Mansion throughout their lives."
The two teams of city guards went to two jade mines in different directions and started a cleaning process.
All the goods stored in the jade factory were moved away, and the private money of the craftsmen inside was also confiscated by the city guards. Piles of account books and lists of jade merchants were all sent to Huajin Office.
From these account books, the flow of indigo jade over the years can be detailed.
Some were bought by serious jade merchants, while others entered the aristocratic class of Tianjing Kingdom and were given away as gifts by the prince.
There is also a part that flows into a Jianghu sect called Tianyigu.
"This is the sect of the Shuang Jue Po Doctor."
Wu Tian stood in front of Hua Jin, cupped his hands and said:
"Your Majesty, it seems that the prince has already been connected with this Tian Yi Gu, so Tian Yi Gu sent two extremely poisonous doctors to the prince."
"Jinshui is also from Tianyugu?"
Hua Jin looked at the account books carefully, and there was no need for Wu Tian and others to answer. Jin Shui was the daughter of Shuangjue Poison Doctor, so she should naturally be from Tianyigu.
But are all these people in the world so unrestrained? The man named Wuni is Jin Shui's real mistress.
At this moment, Jin Shui, who didn't know anything, was wandering behind Hua Jin's room with a straight face.
She refused to give up, why did she poison Hua Jin so much and Hua Jin was still alive and well?
So she didn't poison Hua Jin directly this time. She put poison around Hua Jin's house.
She wants to poison everyone around Hua Jin.
When he turned around, Jin Shui met a man who had just come out of the jade mine.
"Hey, isn't this Miss Jin Shui? What's the matter, Wuni doesn't want you anymore? You might as well consider me, my brother."
As he said that, the man stretched out his hand and wanted to touch a handful of gold water.
She opened the man's hand with a wave of her hand, squinted at the man with her eyes, and said with a cold smile:
"Don't do anything. You are so ugly, but you are trying to get your hands on me?"
Perhaps it was because the disdain in her eyes was too great, or perhaps it was because Jin Shui had been a prostitute for a long time, but did not sell herself at a public price.
For so many years, except for a martial arts nun, no man could touch the hem of gold water.
The man became angry for a moment. He pointed at Jin Shui and cursed:
"Bah, why are you pretending to be a chaste and loyal woman here? I tell you that Wuni has a newlywed bride in his hometown. He has already submitted his wife's name. His wife is coming soon. Look at these few days,
Has Wu Ni taken care of your shabby shoe?"
When Jin Shui heard this, he felt a strong anger boiling in his heart.
No wonder Wuni showed little interest in bed these days. She thought Wuni missed his relatives at home.
It turns out that Wuni was thinking about his wife, so he began to be absent-minded about Jin Shui.
She didn't like Wuni to begin with, and she only stayed with Wuni to use Wuni's semen to suppress the poison in her body.
In Jin Shui's mind, her willingness to have an affair with Wuni was a gift to Wuni.
As a result, Wuni was lost because of a country woman.
This is a humiliation for Jin Shui.
The man in front of him wanted to scold him again, so Jin Shui glanced over and said coldly:
