Chapter 5: Devil
It has been a week since Hao Jiazhi had made a visit to the governor's office and right now he is just waiting patiently for the right time
What right time?
It's about searching for men's who will work for him and because the work will be mostly illegal stuff and other things, He just can't go out and say "New members needed for Gang, You will be paid well" or something like that
He has to go out, search for some suitable people and then make a decision whether they are worthy to believe or not, after all… this business will have some good amount of money circulation so he needs some good/loyal people by his side
As for how he will win their loyalty, well it depends on person to person and we will see it in the future
Right now, what he is worried about is that he can't move freely
Those spies that are around him just won't leave him for a second and the only place he is free, is his home
One thing that he knows so far about those spies is that they are not super active and only follow him, not the servants or Han Yachun
Also, there is no way that those spies are sent by the emperor to keep an eye on him as, if he really cared about him he should have taken Hao Jiazhi from this place to the capital city where all of his brother and sister lives
So, who is the one that is keeping an eye on him?
Hao Jiazhi tried to rack his brain and look into the past memories of the old Hao Jiazhi but it is quite hazy, so it's no use
Leaving that matter aside, Hao Jiazhi is much more concerned about his own future as he still doesn't have any power in his hand
And the more he waits, his desire for power and money just keeps on increasing more and more which gives him fear as he may make a mistake and make his enemy (the person who has put spies on him) aware of his big plans
So, all he could do right now is to wait for some god sent opportunity where he would be able to meet some few strong men's
2nd week
Finally the day Hao Jiazhi had been waiting for so long has come
*fighting noise*
"hmm… what is this noise?" Hao Jiazhi asked Han Yachun as he held a brush in his hand
He is writing something
"I'll see" Han Yachun said and left the room to check what is going outside
After a minute or so, she came and told him what is going on
It seems like his guards and sum local thugs were fighting but before things go out of hands, the local officer get into the scene and are arresting them right now
Also, know what the fight was for
"Thugs…"
Hao Jiazhi suddenly got on an idea as something got inside his mind, something really evil
He then asked about the number of people who pick a fight with his guards, after all, no thug fights alone
"They were 4 people" Han Yachun replied
Hao Jiazhi gave a small smile as he knew that this is the perfect moment for him
He stands up and left his room to look at those thugs
Outside the mansion-
2 officers had tied a rope around the hands of 4 men
The officers were in red dress and had metal plates around their chest, also they were holding Dagger-axe spear with them
"You have committed these crimes so you will be punished, Come with us"
The officers told those 4 men about the crime they committed and was about to take them away to the local in-charge, but they were stopped by Hao Jiazhi
"Officers, there is no need to take them with you. They dare to hurt my guards so I should be the one to punish them" Hao Jiazhi said to the officers as he makes his appearance in a white hanfu dress with a golden shawl around his shoulders
From his looks anyone could tell that he is some big shot, so they didn't say anything unnecessary and asked who he is
Han Yachun steps in front and said "he is the 4th prince of our great emperor"
Knowing that the person in front of them is royalty, the officers bowed their head and paid respect which was very well-liked by Hao Jiazhi as it was his first time seeing people bow to him in this world
With a smile, Hai Jiazhi said "they have hurt my guards and disrupted my study time, so I should be the one to punish them"
He then walked near the officer and then handed them a small pouch which had 1000 ban liang coins in it
Then he whispered, "This is for the great work you are doing for us all"
Both officers were happy and gave a smile, after all the pay of this officer is only around 150 ban liang and here they are having 1000 for just handing 4 people to the person who will punch them personally
It was a fair deal where both parties will benefit, so the officers smiled and said "well, if 4th prince want to punish these criminals by himself, then who are we to stop you"
And then they gave the rope, which is tied around those 4 men, to the 2 guards of Hao Jiazhi and then left the place
For the civilians, it was their everyday thing to see officers being bribed so they didn't pay any attention and get back to their works
As for the 4 men, they were just glaring at Hao Jiazhi and really hated him to the core but little did they know that those eyes that they are using to glare at Hao Jiazhi soon will be full of fear
Nighttime-
The spies that keep their eyes on Hao Jiazhi are only vulnerable at night time as they know that Hao Jiazhi only sleeps at night so, they don't really keep an eye on his house during night time
As for the servants, Hao Jiazhi has announced a small 2 day holidays for them and right now, only Hao Jiazhi, Han Yachun, 2 guards, and also 4 men are inside the whole mansion
He called his guards to the storage room, where those 4 men are being tied, as the doors of the mansion close
Storage room-
"Fuck you all, I am not going to ask for forgiveness to some royalty"
"Hey, bitch wanna suck my Dic*"
"What are you looking at?"
All 4 men's are saying something one after another as they saw 2 guards and Han Yachun came inside the room
Finally, Hao Jiazhi enters the room
"Hello everyone" Hao Jiazhi said with a big smile
*spit*
One of 4 men spit his saliva on the dress of Hao Jiazhi
"YOU!!!"
Both guards became angry and wanted to punch the person who had spit on Hao Jiazhi's dress but they were stopped by Hao Jiazhi
"Seems like you hate me… Ok. But I have an offer for you people so I'll overlook this thing" Hao Jiazhi said with a fake smile as he is really angry
"Shut up you sassy boy" the same man who had spit on Hao Jiazhi gave a comment
And Hao Jiazhi's anger finally snapped
All 4 of them are laughing out loudly
"Guards, open this guy's mouth for a minute" Hao Jiazhi told his guards
The guards followed his command and forcefully opened his mouth (the person who spit)
Because all 4 of them are being tied to the pillars, they can't do anything
But for some reason, all 4 of them knew that something worst is going to happen.
Hao Jiazhi took his 2 hands out of his back and there they all saw 2 knifes
One was a bread knife, a very sharp one, and the other one was a cleaver, a broad knifes used to cut bones
The person who's mouth is open knew that something really worst is going to happen
"Oye, what are you doing?" a person said out of the 3
Hao Jazhi smiled and asked "Stay silent or you will be next"
*gulp*
All 3 other men gulped their saliva
Hao Jiazhi moved his step forward with a small bread knife and then he puts the knife inside the mouth of the person who was being cocky
*rustling noise*
The person tried to move and get himself free but he can't do anything
*blood splash*
*scream*
And then, blood gushed out of his mouth as his tongue fell down on the floor
The man screamed and cried but no matter how badly he wanted to say something, nothing came out of his mouth except his screams
Then Hao Jiazhi looked at the other 3 men and said "now that he is finally silent, let's talk with each other and see if we could help each other "
The 3 men were stunned and didn't know what to speak
They were in deep fear, same goes for the guards and Han Yachun as it was their first time seeing something this bloody
That one action was enough to let everyone know that the person in front of them is not a human but a devil
