"Han San, where are you taking us? Isn't it to the Xujia Ironyard?" Huang Huai walked a way and found that this road was not the road to the Xujia Ironyard at all.
Han San said: "I am doing this for everyone's benefit. Although there was a fight between the government troops and the guards at the iron yard, they obviously did not have the upper hand. If the guards in the iron yard defeated the government troops, they would definitely come to us. For everyone's sake, If we don't get discovered, we'd better work harder, take more detours, pass through the shack area in front, and we'll soon reach the Xujia Ironyard."
"The iron yard guards are just a group of bandits." A miner who escaped with Huang Huai and the others said disdainfully.
"It doesn't matter whether they are bandits or not. We are going to the Xujia Ironyard anyway. These guys will be big shots in the Xujia Ironyard in the future. We must take care of our little brother more in the future." Han Sanchao bowed to Huang Huai and several other miners.
One of the miners smiled and said: "It's easy to talk, easy to talk. I will never forget your benefits, Brother Han."
"Thank you a lot." Han San clasped his fists.
Huang Huai urged: "Let's go quickly, we won't be safe until we reach the Xujia iron yard."
"Yes, yes, yes, let's get on our way first." Han San responded.
A group of five people walked along the path towards the shack area in front.
Except for Han San, Huang Huai and the other four of them all had some status in the iron yard. From the iron furnace to the regenerator, including the fan room, all the miners related to the hot metal were present.
Han San couldn't find these people because of his ability, but Huang Huai came forward and promised benefits, and the government troops came to the iron yard to suppress the bandits, so these few people agreed to go to the Xujia iron yard with Huang Huai.
Arriving at the slum area, Huang Huai frowned and said, "To go from this slum area to the Xujia iron yard, you have to go around half of Dongshan. Isn't it too careful?"
Miss Han smiled and said, "It's because this place is so remote that others don't think of us taking this road."
"That's right." Huang Huai nodded and said, "Everyone, hurry up and get on your way!"
Han San walked in front, Huang Huai and three other miners followed and entered the shack area.
When they reached the middle of the shack area, Han San suddenly stopped, causing Huang Huai and others to stop.
Huang Huai said dissatisfied: "Why did you stop?"
Han San did not reply to Huang Huai's words, but turned to look at a shack on the side and shouted loudly: "The young one has brought the people here, they are all here."
Huang Huai's expression changed immediately when he heard this. He didn't think that Han San was calling someone from Xu's iron farm.
Before Huang Huai and the other three miners could react, more than a dozen big men walked out of several shacks, each with a weapon in their hand, blocking the possibility of Huang Huai and the others escaping.
Huang Huai stared at Han San and said angrily: "Han San, are you betraying us?"
No matter how stupid he was, he still knew that Han San deliberately took them this way just for this scene.
Facing these big men and the cold-lighting weapons in their hands, the miners who followed Huang Huai were obviously extremely frightened, and their bodies kept shaking.
"Everyone, may I ask which iron yard he is from? Maybe everyone knows him." Huang Huai was not too panicked.
He was self-aware that the reason why the other party spent so much effort to block him here was only for the coke ironmaking technology. Other than that, he had nothing worth others' effort.
If he really came here for the coke iron-making technology, his life would be safe, and he even suspected that the big men around him were thugs at the Xu family iron farm.
"Guanshi Huang, where are you going!"
As these words fell, a man walked out of a shack on Huang Huai's left.
Huang Huai turned around and looked over, his expression suddenly changed, his legs went weak, and he sat down on the ground in fear.
If the person Tiechang didn't want to see the most, it was Chen Daqing in front of him.
Han San said with a flattering look on his face: "Tou Chen, according to your order, everyone has been brought here."
"Well done." Chen Daqing praised, then waved his hand to a man next to him and said, "Give him the money."
The man came over, took out a silver ingot worth twenty taels, and threw it to Han San.
Taking the money, Han San nodded and said, "The younger one thanked Chen Tou, and the younger one will leave first."
"No rush." Chen Daqing motioned to Han San to wait.
"Chen, Chen Tou, what do you mean? Why did you let Han Sanyu trick us into leaving the iron field." Huang Huai stuttered a little.
Chen Daqing spread his hands and said: "Steward Huang, you are wrong. The legs are on me. It's not the Xu family iron yard that I asked Steward Huang to go to. Why should I harm you?"
"But..." Huang Huai wanted to defend, but when he saw Han San on the side, he immediately thought that Chen Daqing might have known about his previous visit to the Xujia iron yard.
Seeing that Huang Huai was silent, Chen Daqing said: "Manager Huang, has the boss ever owed you anything?"
"No." Huang Huai lowered his head.
Chen Daqing said again: "No one in the entire Dongshan Iron Works has a higher salary than you. Why did you betray the boss and the Iron Works!"
"I..." Huang Huai hesitated for a moment, then said, "You are bandits, I am just a miner in Dongshan. I don't want to be captured and beheaded by the government in the future."
Chen Daqing said with a sneer: "If the boss hadn't arranged for you to be a steward in the iron yard and taught you the coke ironmaking technology, you would have died of starvation by now, and you still have the nerve to stand here and follow I said I was afraid of being beheaded by the government."
Huang Huai said angrily: "The technology of coke ironmaking is not yours alone. I also have a share. Without me, you wouldn't be able to build the regenerator at all. What's wrong with me wanting to leave now? You have already obtained the coke." Ironmaking technology.”
Hearing this, Chen Daqing laughed angrily, "How shameless, you actually have the nerve to say that you are the one with the coke ironmaking technology, Huang Huai! You really showed me what it means to feed an unfamiliar wolf."
Huang Huai stood up and said with a clear face: "Without me, you can set up the iron furnace in the iron yard. I didn't do all this. Now I don't want to stay in your iron yard. The Xu family has promised me, As long as I go to the Xujia Ironyard, not only can I be exempted from the crime of being a bandit, but I can also be the foreman of the Xujia Ironyard."
Chen Daqing said coldly: "You think you can still leave."
"You, you, what are you going to do? The army has gone to the iron field to suppress the bandits. Now let me go. Maybe I will go to the Xu family to intercede for you, so that you don't have to be beheaded with the bandits in Hutou Village. ." Thinking of Chen Daqing's identity, Huang Huai couldn't help but take two steps back.
Chen Daqing sneered and said: "You know why I still let you stay in the iron yard even though I knew you were connected with the Xu family, and I am still waiting for you here until today."
"Why, why?" Huang Huai said subconsciously.
"The reason is very simple." Chen Daqing raised the corner of his mouth and said, "You are the deputy manager of the iron yard. There must be a reason to kill you. Otherwise, no one else in the iron yard will stay in the iron yard with peace of mind. Since you betrayed the iron yard You deserve to die that day.”
Huang Huai said excitedly: "No, you can't kill me. I helped the master get the coke to make iron."
"Do it." Chen Daqing waved his hand.
A dozen big men looked at Huang Huai and others with their swords, and hacked them to death on the spot, including Han San.
