Chapter 206 reveals the greatest malice
Chapter 206 reveals the greatest malice
Xia Mo deliberately rubbed against Huangfu Qian, then jumped away, holding the shipbuilding blueprints, which were still quite thick even after being folded, and presented them with a grin.
Huangfu Qian looked at the folded large piece of paper, and the first thing that came to his mind was, could it be a map?
Maps cannot be privately owned, and no one is allowed to draw them, not even officials.
Xia Mo gestured for Huangfu Qian to take it quickly.
Huangfu Qian took the drawing, placed it on the table, and then opened it.
After the blueprints were opened, not a single table was set up, but Huangfuqian was immediately attracted by the clear and concise shipbuilding diagrams on the blueprints.
"It's a good thing, isn't it?" Xia Mo asked deliberately, knowing the answer already.
Huangfu Qian quickly took in the final design of the ship on the blueprints, and then he felt a complex mix of emotions and indescribable excitement.
"It was obtained in that way again, right?" The moment Huangfu Qian got the blueprints, he understood what had happened.
Why did Xia Mo say to preserve evidence and witnesses first, deliberately letting Cao Kai achieve his goal?
Xia Mo nodded smugly and said, "Now, you can write down all the steps on the drawing, and you'd better be quick."
Huangfu Qian looked at the special paper on the table. That paper was not something they could manufacture at the moment, and nodded in understanding.
"How can we not reciprocate? I helped you obtain such important blueprints, shouldn't you return something to me?" Xia Mo smiled, but in reality, she was making a deal with Huangfu Qian.
She handed over the blueprints first, not worried that Huangfu Qian would renege on the agreement.
“I had Jiang Chi acquire a mine in Yunnan. Two-thirds of the ore is still unmined. I’m giving you a day trip to the mine; you can take whatever you want,” Huangfu Qian said.
"Deal," Xia Mo said, turning and leaving decisively after completing the transaction.
Huangfu Qian glanced at Xia Mo's departing figure, then lowered his head and continued studying the shipbuilding steps on the blueprints. Only he knew what he was really thinking.

Han family —
Inside the head of the household's study—
Yin Rou encountered some minor troubles.
The Han family head received important news from the shipping company and had to deal with it, so he let Yin Rou read it slowly in the study. Little did he expect that no sooner had he left than his good-for-nothing son came to undermine him!
"Oh, isn't this Miss Yin Rou who was sold into a brothel before? You think you can pretend that the virginity mark didn't exist just because you faked it?" Young Master Han sneered.
Yin Rou paused as she flipped through the account books, looked up, and gazed at Young Master Han.
Besides the patriarch, the most important person in the Han family is the young master. So, the person who made things difficult for her in the Han family is here!
"You dare sit at my father's desk and look at the account books?!"
The young master Han, who was all smiles just a moment ago, suddenly reached out and overturned all the books on the table, causing them to fall to the ground with a "clatter".
Yin Rou frowned as she looked at the ledgers that she had read and those she hadn't, all mixed together.
"You're nothing but a whore ridden by a thousand men, a slut. If I'm being kind to you, I'll call you 'Miss Yin Rou,' but if I look down on you... hehe..."
With a wicked grin, Young Master Han clapped his hands twice, and two burly boatmen dressed in coarse cloth entered the important study.
"This woman is yours to play with," Young Master Han turned his head and coldly ordered the two boatmen.
The two boatmen who had been summoned were very uneasy. They hadn't expected such a good thing. Their eyes lit up and they rushed towards Yin Rou.
"Aren't you afraid of being found out by your father?!" Yin Rou stood up from behind the table, nervously dodging the boatman who lunged at her.
"Yes, he will be angry, but... he will also cover for me and not let anyone outside the scene know, but you..." Young Master Han's face showed the greatest malice.
Yin Rou looked around, her breathing quickening, and when she realized that Xia Mo wasn't beside her, she felt as if she were in a freezing ice cellar, her limbs almost frozen.

At the doorstep of the Han family —
Xia Mo, disguised as a maid, arrived.
Her divine sense constantly told her that something had happened to Yin Rou and that she had rushed over.
Young Master Han had clearly anticipated Xia Mo's arrival and had prepared twenty boatmen skilled in martial arts to wait for him.
“Siya, the Han family does not welcome you. Now, you can leave,” the foreman shouted.
Xia Mo slightly opened her sleeve, and two short sticks slid out. Holding the two sticks, she barged directly into the Han family's house.
The twenty boatmen, who knew a bit of martial arts, were unimpressed.
however……
In late summer, they struck one after another, leaving no one unscathed.
In late summer, he would strike randomly, and with each blow, he would hit someone, knocking them to the ground and preventing them from getting up.
Besides the regular hitting, Xia Mo can also throw the stick. After hitting someone, the stick will automatically bounce back into her hand, and the person she hits with the stick will still only have one result: fall to the ground and not get up.
Twenty people, it only took three breaths to finish.
We continued walking deeper into the valley as summer drew to a close.
The servants of the Han family rushed out and surrounded Xia Mo.
The servants all gripped their sticks tightly.
As Xia Mo took a step closer, the Han family servants nervously took a step back. Xia Mo took another step, and they took another step back. No one dared to make the first move. Didn't they see the twenty boatmen who knew martial arts lying dead by the gate?
Xia Mo didn't have time to walk slowly. Holding the stick in her hand, she attacked the servant blocking her way with two blows.
The servant standing in front of Xia Mo instinctively reached for his stick to block him, but...
"Bang bang..."
Two sounds rang out as sticks clashed. Neither of them could hold onto their sticks. Their hands went numb, and the sticks fell to the ground. Meanwhile, Xia Mo... had already leaped over them and headed straight for the main house!
The group of servants looked at each other, realizing that if they didn't pretend to block him, they would have trouble explaining themselves when Master Han returned, so they chased after Xia Mo.
Xia Mo ran ahead alone, with nearly a hundred people chasing behind her. Servants who were unaware of the situation joined her, and then, except for Xia Mo, all the servants stopped outside the main courtyard.
Xia Mo jumped into the main courtyard and looked towards the study.
After a moment of surprise, Young Master Han hurriedly reached out and closed the study door, hoping to use it as a barrier against the approaching summer.
The two boatmen who rushed towards Yin Rou realized something was wrong. They turned around and saw Xia Moshi disguised as a maid. Their pupils trembled violently. At this moment, how could they dare to lay a hand on Yin Rou?
The two tall, strong boatmen were so frightened that they cowered and looked to the young master of the Han family for help.
Young Master Han looked towards the study door, hoping it would be sturdy.
The study door, which Young Master Han had pinned his hopes on, couldn't even hold up for a moment before crashing to the ground with a loud "bang."
Young Master Han, who was nearly hit by the study door, turned pale and then flushed.
"Do you know where this is?!" Young Master Han shouted at the top of his lungs, trying to bolster his courage with volume, but he was so scared that his voice cracked.
