Chapter 31 Great Harvest and Burning the Account Books

After confirming that Xu Ying had no ability to resist, Zhao Ya turned around and started to deal with the other people in the room.

With Zhao Ya's current strength, it would be easy to deal with these gangsters.

In just a few moments, Zhao Ya quickly eliminated everyone.

But it wasn't over yet, Zhao Ya took out the short knife and scratched the wounds of each corpse.

The reason why Zhao Ya did this was to cover up the traces of the Meteor Iron Sword.

Although the possibility is very low, if someone sees clues from the wounds of these corpses, it will be a big hidden danger to themselves.

After doing this, Zhao Ya stood up and came to Xu Ying.

At this time, Xu Ying's face was extremely pale due to excessive blood loss, and even his lips had lost their color.

He could only stare at the man in black in front of him with horrified eyes, but he couldn't even say a word to beg for mercy.

Because Xu Ying knew very well that he would not be able to escape today no matter what, and this man in black would definitely kill him.

After all, he can even take the trouble to hit a dead body again, which shows his calm and ruthless temperament.

Xu Ying misunderstood what Zhao Ya did just now, and thought that Zhao Ya was afraid of someone who was not dead, so he was doing a last-ditch attack.

Zhao Ya didn't pay attention to Xu Ying's gaze. He used a short knife to lift the cuff of Xu Ying's severed hand, revealing a hand crossbow hidden inside.

Zhao Ya reached out and picked it up, holding it in his hand and looking at it.

This hand crossbow is made entirely of metal, is silver-white in color, and is small and exquisite in shape. It is obviously not an ordinary thing.

Zhao Ya just couldn't put it down.

You must know that what Zhao Ya lacks most now is the means of long-range attacks.

Although this hand crossbow cannot completely make up for it, it is still a good way to save one's life.

Zhao Ya carefully put it into the deerskin bag, then put on his gloves and pulled out the crossbow arrows from the two unlucky guys.

really.

The arrowheads of these two crossbows were a dangerous blue-grey color, and they were obviously poisoned.

Zhao Ya wrapped it with two layers of oilcloth before he dared to put it in his bag.

After dealing with this, Zhao Ya came to Xu Ying again and was surprised to find that he was not dead yet. Instead, he looked at Zhao Ya with extremely hateful eyes and his lips were trembling.

Zhao Ya did not answer, but directly used a short knife to lift Xu Ying's clothes.

Zhao Ya knew that for people like Xu Ying, they would always carry precious items with them.

Because he can't trust anyone.

really.

There was a small package hidden in Xu Ying's chest. When Zhao Ya opened it with gloves on, his eyes lit up.

Inside is a thick stack of banknotes, each with a denomination of fifty taels.

In total, there are as many as seven or eight hundred taels.

At the same time, there is a ledger under these banknotes.

Zhao Ya opened it casually and remembered that it was the record of the Shuangsheng Gang's usury transactions.

On March 18th, the Tong family's medicine shop on Sanli Street in the east of the city borrowed eighteen taels of silver. Now they have repaid thirty-five taels, but they still owe twenty-eight taels. The Tong family was no longer able to repay, so the medicine shop sold them at a low price, and their wives and daughters were sent to the brothels to be sold as meat. To pay off the debt, his wife and daughter both died a month later.

April 23rd, the Li family in Youfang, north of the city...

There are not only IOUs on it, but also detailed causes and consequences, as well as how they were dealt with in the end.

Zhao Ya didn't know why Xu Ying recorded these things in such detail.

But any one of them would be enough to kill Xu Ying twice.

There is a thick volume of records like this.

Zhao Ya knelt down and looked at the lingering Xu Ying.

"Did you do all this?"

"That's right!" At this time, Xu Ying already knew that he had no chance of surviving, so he spoke very simply.

"I write this down just to show those who refuse to repay their debts what will happen if they offend my Shuangsheng Gang."

Speaking of this, Xu Ying's face turned rosy and he stared at Zhao Ya fiercely.

"The same goes for you. Don't think that if you kill me, it will be settled. Sooner or later, someone will take care of you for me. Just wait."

"Are you talking about the backstage that you have been supporting with huge sums of money?" Zhao Ya said lightly.

Xu Ying's eyes widened instantly, as if he didn't expect Zhao Ya to say such words.

"This is actually not difficult to guess at all. Judging from the income from your casino and the dirty money you got from loan sharking, your savings should be much more than this, so most of your Shuangsheng Gang's income should be handed over to Are you backstage?"

"Haha, it's good to know. Let me tell you, the people behind our Shuangsheng Gang are people you can't afford to mess with."

Zhao Ya nodded, "I believe this, but the question is... why should I mess with him?"

"Now that you and your subordinates are all dead, all traces can't be found. No matter how good your backstage staff is, they can't find me."

"And you won't really believe that your backstage will go to war for you!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ya sneered.

"After all...in the eyes of your backstage, you might just be a dog."

Xu Ying's eyes gradually faded, and the only trace of redness on his face was quickly disappearing, just like his life.

But even so, he still stared at Zhao Ya unwillingly, as if he wanted to see through the face under the black scarf.

Zhao Ya naturally did not leave any hidden dangers and slashed through with his sword.

Xu Ying's throat was cut open instantly, but due to excessive blood loss, not much blood flowed out.

Xu Ying died of exhaustion.

Zhao Ya checked it carefully again, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he left through the back window and returned home the same way.

It was almost dawn when he got home. Zhao Ya simply stopped sleeping and took stock of all the gains from the trip.

The biggest gain of this trip was naturally the thick stack of banknotes, which was enough to support Zhao Ya's practice for a period of time.

Zhao Ya put away the banknotes properly and burned the account book with the IOU.

After doing this, Zhao Ya put on his gloves again, carefully took out the crossbow, installed the two crossbow arrows, pointed it at a broken door panel, and pulled the trigger.

There were two crisp sounds, and the crossbow arrow penetrated the door panel, and the arrow penetrated more than an inch deep.

This power made Zhao Ya quite satisfied.

Not to mention the poison quenched on the arrowhead, this power alone is enough to kill someone.

Unfortunately, loading this hand crossbow is quite troublesome, but it is always good to use it to save your life at critical moments.

Zhao Ya put away the hand crossbow.

It was daybreak at this time. Tang Zui'er got up and saw the energetic Zhao Ya, and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Brother Xiaoya, why did you get up so early today?"

"Well, the escort office has something to do today, so I have to go early." Zhao Ya made a random excuse.

Tang Zui'er had no doubts and immediately started making breakfast.

After breakfast, Zhao Ya came to the escort agency.

"Morning, Brother Zhao!"

"Good morning, Brother Zhao!"

From the moment I entered the escort agency, the sound of greetings never stopped.

Anyone who sees Zhao Ya will say hello.

Zhao Ya also responded with a smile, and at the same time he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

I have never been so popular before.
