Chapter 651: Benefiting Others With His Hard Work

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation I Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Xie Jun did not know that other than him, there was another pair of eyes on the roof staring at the iron-smelting technique in his hand.

After putting away the iron-smelting technique, Xie Jun called his trusted aide in.

“Your Highness.”

“Take the thing and head north.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

The trusted aide took the box and left the house.

The figure hiding on the roof swiftly ran after the person who left.

When that person left the relay station, the figure quickly went forward and killed him. Thereafter, the corpse and the box were thrown into the interspatial store. Following that, the slender figure swiftly melted into the dark night.

Xie Jun kept waiting for his trusted aide to send him a signal. Once the trusted aide arrived at the designated location, he could set off on his side.

However, he waited until the next morning, but there was still no news from the other side.

Xie Jun’s heart gradually sank. Could it be that someone had seen through his plan and sabotaged it?

Worried that things might have changed, Xie Jun immediately sent a message to his men.

However, the reply he received was that the person who took the iron-smelting technique had not appeared the entire night.

Xie Jun was dumbfounded.

This was impossible! It was absolutely impossible!

That was his most trusted confidant. He did not believe that this guy would do anything to betray him.

Xie Jun immediately sent people to look for him, but that guy seemed to have evaporated into thin air without even leaving a strand of hair behind.

Xie Jun was utterly bewildered. He had originally planned to put on a show but to his surprise, he had to search for the iron-smelting technique for real this time.

Why would Su Ying, who had obtained the iron-smelting technique, care about their lives?

After obtaining the iron-smelting technique, she did not rush to leave the Jin State.

It was the spring plowing season, so they needed a large number of seeds. Therefore, on the way out when she passed by every city, she bought a lot of gram seeds, vegetable seeds, and tree seeds. She even bought birds. She bought everything that she thought might be useful.

By the time she left the Jin State and returned to the northern wilderness, nearly ten days had lapsed.

As for the current situation of the Jin State, it was not her concern.

After returning to Sky Alpha City, Su Ying summoned Chu Yun to the inner hall.

“Come, you’re an educated person. Take a look at this.”

No one knew what Su Ying had been doing during the time she was away. Therefore, when Chu Yun opened up the iron-smelting technique and examined it part by part, even someone as calm as he was stunned.

“The iron-smelting technique? The Jin State’s iron-smelting technique?”

Su Ying nodded calmly as she munched on snacks. “Yes. That’s the one.”

“City Lord, you went to the Jin State and stole it?”

“Yes and no. Their people stole it themselves. I simply conveniently took it from them.”

Chu Yun was speechless.

Although Chu Yun was speechless, he was still excited.

This was the iron-smelting technique of the Jin State!

“Previously, you never said why you wanted to let Xie Rui go, City Lord. Could it be that you have been playing this big game of chess all along?”

As smart as Chu Yun was, he quickly thought of the key points. Previously he didn’t understand why Su Ying let Xie Rui go so easily, but now that he thought about it, it definitely had something to do with this iron-smelting technique.

Su Ying shook her head and then nodded again. Strictly speaking, it was Xiao Jin who taught her how to play this chess game.

Xiao Jin wrote to her every day, openly and indirectly complaining about her perfunctory treatment of him. She was really annoyed by him, so she resorted to telling him about Xie Rui’s situation.

In the beginning, Xiao Jin did not respond to this matter, but once, he asked her if she really wanted the iron-smelting technique. She replied that she did.

Xiao Jin then told her to do as he said.

It would be very difficult to make the Prime Minister’s Mansion get hold of the iron-smelting technique if they kept Xie Rui in their hands. This was because the other party would also think that Xie Rui would not die before they achieved their goal. Thus, they would only think of ways to save Xie Rui and stall for time.

Xiao Jin said to beat them at their own game, and then let the Red Demon Sect, which was based in the Jin State, work with her to complete the rest.

Right at this time, Su Ying also learned about the spy from Meng Jiang. As the saying went, just when she was dozing off, someone sent her a pillow.

Before she released Xie Rui, she had told the Red Demon Sect to leak to Xie Jun the stupid things Xie Rui had done in the northern wilderness. With the two of them being enemies, Xie Jun would definitely not let go of the opportunity to make Xie Rui suffer.

True enough, Xie Jun did not disappoint her.

As for what happened thereafter, what she could anticipate, Xie Jun could also foresee. Su Ying simply told the Red Demon Sect to use some rumors to lead Xie Jun on. If he did not have such thoughts, he would not have been fooled so easily.

In the beginning, Su Ying didn’t really have to have the iron-smelting technique. However, when they started digging the mine, they found that the iron ore in this mine might be much more than they imagined. With this development, it had become very critical to have exquisite iron-smelting techniques.

The iron-smelting technique was extremely important to the Jin State, and it was divided into three parts. It was indeed difficult to get it by simply abducting Xie Rui. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have taken such a big detour.

Although the process was a little troublesome, at least the result was satisfactory.

As for whether the internal affairs of the Jin State would become chaotic because of this, it had nothing to do with her. After all, even without her, the Jin State’s ruler’s wonderful sons would not let him live for a few more years.

‘But City Lord, this iron-smelting technique is so important. May I know how you want to put it into use?”

Not surprisingly, for an item that was so strictly protected by the Jin State, they couldn’t simply hand it to outsiders so wantonly. Even if those people were trustworthy now, what about in the future?

“What ideas do you have?”

Chu Yun frowned slightly. Indeed, this matter required careful consideration.

“We can only learn from the model of the Jin State. Divide them up and let them work separately.

“For each step, we will train a group of people.”

As for those who could master this technique, they needed to be kept under control.

There were not many people in the northern wilderness who knew how to smelt iron. Some of them were brought over from the Chu State by Su Ying. The situation m the Chu State was even more complicated. Even if Xiao Jin wanted to obtain the iron-smelting technique, she did not want to send it back to the Chu State now.

“Bring all the people who will participate in the iron-smelting technique here tomorrow.”

“Sure.”

Even in his dreams, Xie Jun would never have thought that the iron-smelting technique that he had worked so hard to obtain ended up benefiting other people.

He also did not expect that the show he was nonchalantly putting on would turn out to be real. He had to go out and search for the iron-smelting technique seriously now.

“Your Highness, we’ve searched everywhere he can go, but we can’t find any

trace of him. Could this fellow have betrayed us?”

Xie Jun s expression was contorted in anguish.

“Find this fellow for me even if you have to dig three feet into the ground!”

He was glad that he hadn’t told Emperor Zhao Heng that he had found the iron-smelting technique. Otherwise, he would have really dug a hole for himself.

The iron-smelting technique clearly described every step and the precautions to take note of when carrying out iron-smelting. Su Ying and Chu Yun spent the entire night separating the steps.

Su Ying’s plan was to have a small group responsible for each stage, just like an assembly line in a big factory.

After they were done sorting out the steps, the people who were good at smelting iron were brought to the inner hall.

“Greetings, City Lord..”
