All Heavens and Myriad Realms Pick Up Attribute System

After the guests and the host were seated, Li Yao said casually while drinking water: "Old Wu, you Wu clan, you have the blood of Qin State."

Wu Shilu and Wu Yingyuan were shocked and looked at each other.

It stands to reason that it is not a secret that they have Qin blood.

However, as soon as Li Yao came to the door today, he mentioned this matter, which must have deep meaning.

And Wu Yingyuan's eyes flickered even more.

Wu Shilu said with an apologetic smile: "To tell the truth, our Wu clan does have Qin's blood. However, since our Wu clan came to Zhao country, we have been loyal to Zhao country and dare not have the slightest disagreement."

Li Yao sneered, "Really? But I heard that your Wu family has been in frequent contact with a certain high-ranking official in Qin recently. I don't know why?"

Wu Shilu hurriedly denied: "It's absolutely impossible, our Wu family is loyal to Da Zhao, and we will never do such a treacherous thing."

A panic flashed in Wu Yingyuan's eyes.

Li Yao looked at Wu Yingyuan and said with a half-smile, "Brother Wu, do you think so too?"

Wu Yingyuan put away his panic and pretended to be calm and said: "Master Li, our Wu family has always been loyal to Da Zhao, and the world can learn from it."

Li Yao clapped a few palms and said with a smile, "What a world to learn from!"

Immediately, he changed his words and said, "Then let me ask you, why have you been in frequent contact with Lu Buwei of Qin recently?"

Wu Shilu stood up in shock, stared at Wu Yingyuan gloomily, and asked, "Yingyuan, have you really contacted Lu Buwei?"

And Wu Yingyuan froze for a while, wondering how Li Yao learned about this secret.

Because of the great importance, this secret, even his father, he concealed.

However, he still maintained a calm expression on his face, and denied it: "Mrs. Li, there must be someone who wants to frame our Wu family."

Seeing Wu Yingyuan's tough mouth, Li Yao was not in a hurry, and continued to expose Wu Yingyuan's details, "Oh, then let me ask you, do you know Tuxian and Xiao Yuetan?"

Wu Yingyuan was shaken all over, and he couldn't calm down any longer.

Tu Xian was Lu Buwei's general manager and was responsible for secretly communicating with him, while Xiao Yuetan was the actual contact person sent by Tu Xian.

When he communicated with Xiao Yuetan, it was extremely secretive, and it was logically impossible for anyone to know.

Unexpectedly, Li Yao actually said the names of Tuxian and Xiao Yuetan, which made him calm down.

Seeing that Wu Yingyuan's expression changed drastically, Wu Shilu had already guessed that this was true.

For a time, the expression on his face was uncertain, and his mood changed sharply, thinking about how to deal with the current situation.

Seeing that Wu Yingyuan was silent, Li Yao continued to expose Wu Yingyuan's bottom line, "Tu Xian and Xiao Yuetan contacted you just because they wanted to rescue Qin's proton Ying Zheng and Zhu Ji through you, right?"

Wu Yingyuan's face swiped, and it became darker than black charcoal.

He trembled in horror: "You, you... How did you find out about this?"

Li Yao smiled slightly: "Is this still important?"

Immediately, he slammed the table and shouted: "Wu Yingyuan, you are so courageous, you dare to fornicate with the enemy country and rebel against Da Zhao, aren't you afraid of breaking up your three clans?"

Wu Yingyuan and Wu Shilu were so frightened that they trembled all over, their knees softened, they fell to their knees, and hurriedly begged: "Teacher, I, Wu Yingyuan, lost my mind for a while and made such a big mistake, I hope Mrs. Fu Neng can take credit for the fact that our Wu family has been providing war horses to Da Zhao, and make a good point."

They have long heard of Li Yao's murderous name. Li Yao once killed hundreds of killers by himself. The swordsmen recruited by their Wu family were not Li Yao's opponents at all.

Moreover, when Li Yao came this time, he did not lead troops to arrest them directly, indicating that Li Yao did not want to kill the Wu family.

Therefore, at present, only by begging Li Yao for mercy can the Wu family have a chance of life.

Seeing that the plan had been completed, Li Yao pulled up Wu Shilu and Wu Yingyuan and said with a smile, "I know that your Wu family has always been loyal to Da Zhao, and Brother Wu was also temporarily deceived by Lu Buwei, so he made such a big mistake. , as long as your Wu family remains loyal to Da Zhao in the future, I will no longer pursue this matter."

Wu Shilu and Wu Yingyuan glanced at each other, thinking in their hearts: Li Yao will never give up this matter so easily, he must have another move.

Sure enough, Li Yao changed the topic and continued: "However, in order to show the loyalty of your Wu family, you must show enough sincerity."

Wu Shilu hurriedly said: "Although Taifu is straightforward, as long as our Wu family can do it."

Li Yao said indifferently: "Hand over your Wu's Ranch!"

"what?!"

Wu Shilu and Wu Yingyuan were shocked, but they didn't expect Li Yao to make this request.

Wu's pasture is the foundation of their Wu's foothold. If they hand over the Wu's pasture, it is equivalent to handing over their net worth.

But Li Yao said again: "However, don't worry, the ranch is still managed by you, and the imperial court will send horse supervisors to station in the Wu's ranch, lest you sell your war horses to enemy countries."

When Wu Shilu and Wu Yingyuan heard this, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Li Yao did not take away the right to manage the ranch, they would have a foothold.

The reason why Li Yao did not take away the right to manage the ranch was because the Wu family had rich experience in raising war horses, and it was better to let the Wu family keep war horses than to let those laymen raise horses.

Chapter 56 Tough means, get the king of iron smelting

Li Yao did both hard and soft, and finally won Wu Shilu and Wu Yingyuan, and took control of Wu Shi Ranch.

Before leaving, he took out a silk cloth with the names of some people written on it.

He handed the list to Wu Shilu, and smiled mysteriously: "The people on this list are all the traitors who have been planted by various forces in your Wu family."

After he finished speaking, he left Wu's house unrestrainedly.

Wu Shilu and Wu Yingyuan took a closer look at the list and saw that it was written: Lian Jin, Wu Hei, Li Shan and others.

Needless to say, Lian Jin was already confirmed to be Zhao Mu's lackey.

And Wu Hei, Li Shan, and others were all chief stewards or family generals reused by Wu Shilu and Wu Yingyuan, but they were all traitors.

Wu Shilu and Wu Yingyuan subsequently confirmed the authenticity of the list through a secret investigation.

Immediately they were so frightened that cold sweat broke out from their backs.

They did not expect that the Wu family would have so many traitors planted by various forces.

They didn't even think that they didn't even find these traitors, but Li Yao actually knew it perfectly, which was terrifying.

In fact, Li Yao handed this list to them just to let them know that he knew every move of the Wu family and warned them not to have any dissent.

This list was found by him from the Marquis of Julu Mansion.

After getting the king of animal husbandry, Li Yao then set his sights on the king of iron smelting.

If he wants to develop cavalry, it is not enough to rely on war horses alone, and he also needs a lot of weapons.

And Guo Zong, the king of iron smelting, was the largest weapons merchant in Zhao State.

Although Guo Zong is known as the king of iron smelting, he also casts various bronze products, including bronze weapons.

In this era, iron weapons have not really become popular, mainly bronze weapons, and iron is generally used to make daily utensils.

It was not until the Han Dynasty that the improvement of iron smelting technology made iron weapons popular.

Li Yao, who came from later generations, has also read a lot of novels about iron smelting. Although he does not know how to smelt iron, he used his knowledge of iron smelting in later generations to remind the smelters at this time, and he will definitely be able to greatly improve this time. smelting technology.

Therefore, Li Yao decided to let the Iron Age come ahead of schedule.

If you want the Iron Age to come early, you must first get Guo Zong, the king of iron smelting.

Guo Zong is a cunning and cunning man with a lot of scheming, often hiding a knife in his smile.

To deal with Guo Zong, we cannot use both hard and soft means as we did against Wu Shilu and Wu Yingyuan.

Because Guo Zong is too cunning and his appearance is different, you can't guess what he is thinking.

Therefore, Li Yao decided to use simple and rude means to deal with Guo Zong.

So, Li Yao took a large group of officers and soldiers and broke into the Guo Mansion aggressively.

The servants of Guo Mansion were overwhelmed by the sudden intruder.

Soon, Guo Zong, who came to hear the news, hurriedly smiled and said, "I didn't know Mrs. Li was here, and Mr. Guo has made a mistake. Please forgive me."

Li Yao's face sank, and he shouted coldly: "Guo Zong, do you know the crime?"

Guo Zong was shocked, but he still had a smile on his face, and asked a little puzzled: "Mr. Li, what do you mean? Guo Mou has always been law-abiding, how can he be guilty?"

"Abide by the law?"

Li Yao sneered and said, "Is it also law-abiding by illicitly colluding with an enemy country?"

Guo Zong was startled, and the smile on his face disappeared immediately.

Fornicating with the enemy country, but the big crime of the three tribes, how could he laugh.

He hurriedly defended: "Mr. Li, you must not say these words indiscriminately. I, Guo Zong, have always been loyal to Da Zhao, so how dare I fornicate with the enemy country."

"is it?"

Li Yao knew that Guo Zong would not plead guilty easily.

So he gave a wink to one of the officers and soldiers beside him.

The officer immediately took out a stack of silk cloth and handed it to Li Yao.

Li Yao threw the silk cloth on Guo Zong's body and shouted coldly: "These are all evidences that you are fornicating with the enemy country. You sell weapons to the enemy country privately, which is equivalent to fornicating the enemy country. What else can you say? ?"

Some of these evidences were collected by him from the Marquis Mansion of Julu, and some were collected by Mozhe of the Mozhe Guild.

Guo Zong immediately picked up these silk cloths and looked at them quickly.

The more he looked, the faster his heart beat, the more ugly his face became, and his hands trembled uncontrollably.

He didn't expect that Li Yao would find out that he secretly sold weapons to the enemy country.

These silk cloths are some evidence of his dealings with enemy countries.

How could this evidence fall into Li Yao's hands?

Among them, there is a lot of evidence that he colluded with Zhao Mu and sold a large number of weapons to the state of Chu.

In addition, he also colluded with Qi Guo Tian Shan and sold a lot of weapons to Qi Guo.

If it were replaced by King Xiaocheng in power, this matter would pass through Zhao Mu completely, and the matter would be obfuscated.

However, now that Zhao Mu is dead, and King Xiaocheng is seriously ill, the power of Zhao state falls into the hands of Li Yao.

And Li Yao didn't seem to like him much.

It seemed that this time, he was doomed.
