The Republic of China Conspiracy Records

Chapter 112 Fisherman’s Pride (6)

After returning to his residence, Qian Er thought to himself how to use this trick quietly to force the silk reeling factory to buy his cocoons.Although this matter is life-threatening, he never thought of reporting it to the authorities.One is that life in this world is as cheap as a straw dog, and he just wants to get rid of the cocoon as soon as possible, and does not want to do justice for the sky; the other is that the local police have been harassing and blackmailing him, and he really can't count on them.

Tossing and turning like this all night, until the next morning, he still hadn't come up with a perfect solution, so he had to grit his teeth and prepare to go to the door just like that.Because he didn't sleep well last night, he got up a little late, but when he went to the door, he suddenly realized that he had missed something.

It was a female worker who opened the door for him. When she learned that Qian Er was looking for the owner of the silk reeling factory, she told him that Zhao Yi and others had left the silk reeling factory.It was only then that Qian Er realized that he had been thinking about how to threaten him all night, but he didn't expect that he still had a way to counter his threat, which was to pat his ass and leave.

According to the female worker's description, Zhao Yi and the others had been gone for a long time, and at this moment they couldn't catch up even if they flattered the horse.Qian Er lamented for a while, knowing that it was Zhao Yi and the others who killed someone, he was actually very panicked, so he ran away to avoid disaster.Now that the person has left, he naturally has nothing to do.

Just as he was about to leave, the female worker who opened the door for him asked in a daze if he knew Zhao Yi.Now Zhao Yi and the others are gone, but these female workers are still there. They came here to work in the silk reeling factory, hoping to have food and clothing.Now that Zhao Yi is gone, what should they do?

Qian Er's heart suddenly moved when he heard the words, Zhao Yi and the others had left, but the machines in the silk reeling factory were still there.Silkworm cocoons cannot be kept for a long time, but they are fine after being woven into silk, so you can slowly find buyers.Now that Zhao Yi and the others have escaped, wouldn't he be able to use these machines to organize female workers to reel silk?
The price of silk is naturally much higher than that of silkworm cocoons, so he actually made more profits in this way.He had long thought of starting his own silk reeling factory, but he couldn't afford the cost of buying the machines.As long as Zhao Yi and the others don't come back, he can take the silk reeling factory as his own and produce and sell it himself from now on!

He got excited thinking about it, and asked the female worker Zhao Yi and others about the details of their departure.The female worker replied that Zhao Yi and the others had left suddenly, and had already packed up all their belongings and taken them away.As for the reason for leaving, the female worker hesitated again and again, and finally said that someone died suddenly in the silk reeling factory.

When the man died, his whole body was wrapped in silk, like a cocoon.A female worker named Wan'er said that she saw a giant silkworm in the house at night, and suspected that this giant silkworm killed the man, and then spun silk to wrap the dead into a cocoon.Zhao Yi and the others were probably frightened by this statement, so they fled hastily.

After hearing this, Qian Er thought to himself, this female worker named Wan Er is probably the woman he saw last night.Zhao Yi killed someone and was seen by Wan Er, so she was forced to make up such a ridiculous excuse.But even if Wan'er made it up according to his intention, Zhao Yi still felt uneasy, so he killed Wan'er again to silence him.

I just don't know why after he killed two people in a row, he suddenly became scared again, so much so that he left the whole silk reeling factory and ran away.But this has nothing to do with Qian Er, as long as these cocoons can be exchanged for money, even if there is really a giant silkworm in this house, he doesn't care.Qian Er made up his mind, and pretended that he was a businessman who provided silkworm cocoons to Zhao Yi, and that he was acquainted with Zhao Yi.

He said that Zhao Yi left because of something, so he entrusted him with the silk reeling factory and asked him to produce it by himself.When the female worker heard that she could still start working, she was naturally very happy, and immediately led him into the back yard, and told the other sisters about it.Everyone was very happy. Qian Er was about to ask them where the machine was, when he saw someone coming out of a room.

The man looked sluggish, seemed to be in an extremely bad condition, and walked a little staggeringly.But when Qian Er saw her, he shivered in broad daylight. He felt a chill go straight to his forehead, and his whole body froze.When the man approached, his mind came alive, and one thing suddenly occurred to him - did Zhao Yi and the others leave the silk reeling factory in a hurry because they were afraid of killing someone?

If Zhao Yi would be afraid after killing someone, why didn't he run away after killing the first person, but wait until after killing the female worker?At that time, the female worker sneaked out of the room to watch Zhao Yi's murder. This was witnessed by Qian Er.But the question is, why did this female worker know that Zhao Yi had killed someone, and got up in the middle of the night to peep?
At that time, he believed that Zhao Yi killed the person, so he never thought about it in other directions. At this moment, he thought of another possibility, and immediately felt cold all over his body.It is very likely that Zhao Yi did not kill the person, Zhao Yi was just going to bury him at that time!If this is true, then who on earth killed people?
The body of the deceased was wrapped in silk and buried under a mulberry tree.The female worker who opened the door earlier said that Wan'er once said that a giant silkworm appeared in the house, and the person was probably killed by the giant silkworm.Could it be that everything she said was true, she knew that Zhao Yi would go to bury the person killed by the giant silkworm, so she was peeping in the middle of the night?
Wan'er was the only one who had seen the giant silkworm, and he happened to meet her when he was buried in the middle of the night, so Zhao Yi became suspicious of her and killed Wan'er.This is for self-protection, not for silence as Qian Er previously believed.After Zhao Yi killed Wan Er, he buried her under the mulberry tree. When Qian Er came to investigate last night, he saw her dead body in the pit with his own eyes.

But now the person walking out of the room is exactly Wan Er who was buried in the soil.

A dead person suddenly appeared in front of him yawning, and this person was killed by himself, the psychological threat to people is self-evident.Not to mention Zhao Yi, even Qian Er didn't realize his legs were weak when he looked at Smiling.So Zhao Yi suddenly left the whole silk reeling factory, not because he killed someone, but because of a smile!

A person does not come out of a room after death, unless she is not a person.Qian Er struggled with his legs, he didn't know whether to run away or pretend he didn't know anything.When digging the hole last night, he had already met Wan Er's "corpse", and he wondered if Miss Wan Er would blame him for not having a tutor if he pretended not to have seen him.

He was trembling with fear at the thought, but Wan Er seemed to be fine.She was surprised when she saw a stranger suddenly came to the house. At this time, a sister told him that although Zhao Yi and the others left them and left, someone took over, a businessman who provided silkworm cocoons for the silk reeling factory. , The silk reeling mill will continue to operate as usual.

Wan'er was originally in low spirits, but when she heard this, her expression suddenly became extremely strange.She looked Qian Er up and down, and saw that Qian Er was like a thorn on his back, and his whole body tensed up.She didn't want the silk reeling factory to start work, Qian Er took a breath and said to himself in his heart.

Perhaps it was because of her that the previous silk reeling factory was shut down.Now, in order to prevent the start of the new silk reeling factory, she killed two people one after another, which made Zhao Yi and the others run away in fright.Now that she wants to take over the silk reeling factory and start work, she will naturally not agree.

But why did she prevent the silk reeling mill from starting?

Qian Er's mind turned rapidly. She said that she saw a giant silkworm, and she probably wanted to scare Zhao Yi and the others away.So could it be that she is that giant silkworm?If she is really a giant silkworm, it can naturally explain why she was killed but not dead.In addition, after killing someone and burying it under the mulberry tree, it happens to provide nutrients for the mulberry tree, and the mulberry leaves are her rations!
The more he thought about it, the more likely it was that the sweat dripped from his forehead.At this time, a female worker saw that his face was very pale, so she asked him, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay." He forced a laugh, pretending to be calm, and said to the female worker who spoke, "I still need to know about the situation of the silk reeling factory, some workers and machines, please go ahead and talk with me in detail. ?”

The female worker naturally complied and followed him to the front yard.As soon as Qian Er arrived at the front yard, he couldn't wait to ask about Wan'er's origin and how he came to the silk reeling factory.The female worker told him solemnly that there was something wrong with Wan'er, she had just arrived two days ago, and she was alone when she came.

Originally, Zhao Yi and the others had no intention of recruiting at that time, but they couldn't stand her request, so they agreed to accept her.When she arrived, she said that Zhao Yi and the others might be human traffickers, and wanted the girls to run away with her.But this rhetoric was seen through by Zhao Yi at a glance. Zhao Yi said that she was actually the trafficker and wanted to trick the girls into leaving here so that it would be easier to start.

The girls were still skeptical at first, wondering which one she or Zhao Yi said was true.But now that all the businessmen who provided cocoons to Zhao Yi appeared, the silk reeling factory was naturally real, and it was Swan Er who lied.

"Later Zhao Yi and the others left in a hurry, probably not because they were frightened away by the rumor of giant silkworms," ​​the female worker hesitated before she said, "I think maybe Wan'er used some means to force them away, even that She killed the people wrapped in cocoons."

As she spoke, she might be afraid that these words would affect Qian Er's determination to continue working, so she hurriedly said, "Since we have seen her true face clearly, we don't need to be afraid of her. She wants to kidnap and sell us, so she has to ask if we agree !"

She spoke with righteous indignation, with an awe-inspiring look.But Qian Er was not in the mood to listen carefully to what she had to say. After he learned about Wan Er's origin, he became more and more sure that she was the giant silkworm, otherwise how would a young woman dare to walk alone in these years!
He sent the female worker back to the backyard, and wandered alone in the front yard, hesitating all the time.I thought this was an excellent opportunity, not only to digest the batch of silkworm cocoons in my hand, but also to take the opportunity to make a fortune, who would have thought that there would be such a trap.Right now, he neither dared to start work hastily, nor was he willing to just leave.

How to do it?

He was extremely anxious, pacing back and forth in the front yard, entangled in this way, unexpectedly, it would be dark soon.At this time, the female workers used the rice left by Zhao Yi to cook, and seeing that he was still here, they came to invite him to eat together.Qian Er followed them into the dining room, but saw Wan Er sitting alone, and everyone ignored her.

Although she was alone, she looked calm and ate quietly, and when she saw Qian Er walk in, she even looked at him.Qian Er felt terrified when she saw her, and hurriedly turned his eyes away.After finishing the meal, he finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind, he must not let this excellent opportunity slip away, he wanted to negotiate with Wan'er!

Although negotiating with a goblin is like seeking skin from a tiger, as long as you are sincere enough, you may not be unable to impress Smiling.Qian Er secretly felt ruthless, what does she want, to provide enough nutrients for the old mulberry tree?As long as it allows him to start working, he doesn't mind smiling and killing a few more female workers!

He was trembling at the thought, but he suppressed the trembling and went to Wan'er's side, and whispered to her: "I have seen everything under the mulberry tree. I... I have something to discuss with you, and I was in the mulberry tree in the middle of the night." I'll wait for you later, okay?"

Wan Er was a little surprised, and said, "Do you have something to discuss with me?"

"This matter...is extremely important to me." Qian Er felt his throat was dry, and it was difficult to speak, "I know that Zhao Yi and the others were wrong about the previous matter, I... Let's discuss it carefully, you see? it is good?"

He unconsciously used a pleading tone, and Smiling was even more surprised when he heard the words, stared at him for a long time, and then nodded.Seeing her nodding, Qian Er was immediately overjoyed, fearing that she would go back on his word, he hurriedly said: "Then it's a deal." Then he left the dining hall in a hurry.

After returning to the residence, it was not easy until midnight.He thought that since Wan'er agreed to negotiate with him, maybe the matter would turn around, he was both excited and scared, thinking that he would have to deal with goblins from now on, he felt ashamed.But now that he has made up his mind, he can only grit his teeth and move forward.

He set off from his residence and came under the old mulberry tree again, and saw Wan'er waiting there, digging a hole under the tree with a shovel.He was startled, and asked in a trembling voice, "Are you digging a hole? What... what are you going to do?"
