Chapter 1273: Petty Revenge

Editor: Henyee Translations

Compared to the sum of 3.5 million liang, a few hundred thousand seemed inconsequential!

It was beyond infuriating!

Zhao Mu seethed with anger, almost unable to contain himself. He was a seasoned veteran in the business world with decades of experience, confident in his ability to navigate any situation and outwit any adversary. Yet, against all odds, he had fallen into the clutches of this mother-son duo.

Fuming, Zhao Mu stormed out with an icy demeanor, his frustration simmering within him, nowhere to be released.

Ms. Qin had lost her composure too.

Once she gained her freedom, she stumbled upon the staggering compensation of 3,500,000 liang. Clutching her chest, she let out a heart-rending scream, the pain piercing her very soul.

That money belonged to the Zhao Family, to her son, and to herself. How could Zhao Shu arbitrarily appropriate such a significant sum?

“That wretched scoundrel has gone too far! He’s absolutely insufferable! We can’t let him off the hook so easily!” Ms. Qin gritted her teeth and summoned her two sons for a conference. “I’ve heard he’s still in Yangzhou. No matter what it takes, we must teach him a lesson and force him to return every last cent!”

Ms. Qin’s rage intensified, particularly upon discovering that Uncle Qing was overseeing the vast mulberry fields. It only fueled her fury further, as she suspected Zhao Shu’s involvement.

Their losses had been monumental.

Zhao Zhai shared in the anger. He sneered, “Who does that brat think he is? He won’t need any tricks after I’m through with him! In fact, I’ll give him a few extra lessons so he understands that not just anyone can trample over us!”

Zhao Zhai harbored no qualms about a confrontation in Yangzhou.

Zhao Ye, on the other hand, remained silent, his thoughts laced with inner curses directed at Zhao Zhai for his impulsive nature.

What would be the purpose of physically assaulting Zhao Shu? Could it guarantee the return of the money?

However, it couldn’t be denied that Zhao Shu deserved some sort of retribution. If Elder Brother intended to confront him physically, there would be no objections.

Ms. Qin had always excelled at subtle manipulation, and she found a sense of satisfaction in these sentiments. “Indeed, he needs a stern lesson! Seek out individuals who can keep their mouths shut. Don’t worry about the expense; give them a thrashing and leave them incapacitated. But ensure they don’t lose their lives. Humph, in Yangzhou, nobody will care about his well-being!”

Encouraged by his mother’s support, Zhao Zhai wore a satisfied expression and nodded in agreement.

Initially, Zhao Zhai had intended to carry out this plan with his trusted servants, but he bumped into his close friend, Brother Lin, who inquired about his intentions.

Although Zhao Zhai had wanted to keep things hushed, Brother Lin’s curiosity proved relentless, compelling him to spill the beans. He made it clear that the matter should remain confidential.

Young Master Lin pondered for a moment, then grinned. “Brother Zhao, merely beating him up is child’s play—too simple. Didn’t you mention that his loyal servants control the 100,000 mulberry fields? What if we were to set fire to them… hehehe!”

Zhao Zhai’s eyes gleamed with intrigue, and he responded with a smile. “You’re absolutely right! Why didn’t I think of that, Brother Lin? You’re a genius!”

Young Master Lin joined in the laughter. “Plan it meticulously and watch them suffer!”

“Absolutely!”

Zhao Zhai treated Young Master Lin to a drink and set his plan in motion the following day.

Since they no longer possessed the mulberry garden, if they couldn’t have it, they were determined to ensure no one else could either. It seemed like a perfectly reasonable course of action!
