Chapter 128 Family Heirloom Armor
Ning Shanfeng, who was lying on the bed, immediately struggled to sit up when he heard these words. When he took it over and took a look, excitement appeared on his face.
"Yes, this is the thick Gebu we lost. Young Master Zhao, where did you find this?"
Zhao Ya smiled slightly and said, "Send a few cars over. You will know when we get there."
Although he had been ill in bed for several days, when he heard that the cloth had been found, Ning Shanfeng recovered 70% of his illness in an instant.
"Okay, I'll arrange the car now."
Yongsheng Cloth Village had a ready-made carriage, so it was quickly prepared.
Regardless of the dissuasion, Ning Shanfeng insisted on sitting on a carriage and followed Zhao Ya to the residence next to the warehouse.
When they opened the door and saw the piles of fabrics inside, Ning Shanfeng and Ning Shan's eyes widened.
"It's amazing, it's amazing!" Ning Shanfeng murmured in admiration.
Ning Shan on the side looked at Zhao Ya with shock and admiration.
She really couldn't understand why he found the stolen fabric overnight when he had found nothing last night.
Could it be said that he can do magic?
"Take inventory and see if the numbers are correct," Zhao Ya said.
After taking stock of all the fabrics and loading them into the truck, the number was accurate. Ning Shanfeng was so excited that he almost knelt down to Zhao Ya.
You must know that this morning he was already prepared for his family to be destroyed.
Unexpectedly, he was saved from a desperate situation, and all the stolen fabrics were returned in good condition.
One can imagine how grateful he is to Zhao Ya.
But he also had some doubts.
"Young Master Zhao, how did you find out the whereabouts of this batch of fabrics? And who stole it?"
Zhao Ya concealed the matter about the Paradise Cult. After all, as ordinary people, they knew that it would not do any good, but would harm them.
I will tell you what happened after the modification.
Especially after hearing that it was actually the Ning Zhang who had renewed his string, colluding with outsiders and stealing the fabric.
Ning Shanfeng was simply furious.
"This bitch, in vain of my being so kind to her all these years, she actually took advantage of me and teamed up with outsiders to deal with me. It's really killing!"
At the end of the sentence, Ning Shanfeng's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Although he is just an ordinary shopkeeper, there are not many good people who can build a business of his scale these days.
To put it bluntly, if he hadn't been a bit ruthless, he would have been eaten to the point where no bones were left.
Zhao Ya naturally understood this, but how Ning Shanfeng dealt with the Ning Zhang family was their own business and had nothing to do with him, so Zhao Ya didn't say anything.
However, Ning Shanfeng recovered quickly and was extremely grateful to Zhao Ya.
"Young Master Zhao, you are the savior of our Ning family. If you hadn't found this batch of fabrics, even if you smashed my old bones, it wouldn't be enough to compensate them."
"Shopkeeper Ning is so polite."
"I'm not being polite, I'm sincere. To be honest, if it were us, we would never have imagined that the mysteriously missing cloth was actually in a private house a hundred meters away from the warehouse. This is called darkness under the lamp."
Ning Shanfeng was filled with emotion, and then ordered his workers to pull all the fabrics back to the cloth shop.
Although the warehouse was close at hand, after this incident, Ning Shanfeng was frightened and refused to entrust his life and property to a few men no matter what.
Zhao Ya also came back with him. Ning Shanfeng asked his daughter Ning Shan to sit with him in the guest room for a while while he hurriedly left.
Zhao Ya naturally understood what he was going to do, but he didn't ask anything, just nodded, and then drank tea and chatted with Ning Shan in the guest room.
But Ning Shan was obviously a little absent-minded and frequently looked at the back house.
Zhao Ya smiled when he saw this, and then said: "It seems that Miss Ning and your stepmother have a good relationship."
Ning Shan's expression froze, and then she sighed and said, "It's not that deep, but she came to our house when I was very young. After getting along with her for so many years, we always have some feelings for her."
"If Miss Ning wants to go over and have a look, please feel free to do so. I'll just have some tea here by myself," Zhao Ya said.
"This... well, please forgive me for being negligent!" Ning Shan apologized to Zhao Ya, then stood up and hurried to the back house.
Looking at her back, Zhao Ya shook his head secretly.
This girl is still too naive.
She thought she could save Ning Zhang's life by going over there?
You must know that for a pure businessman like Ning Shanfeng, you can slap him twice, and he may smile at you, but if you touch his core interests, you will never be soft.
Let alone renewing the relationship, Ning Shanfeng would never let go of such betrayal even if it was his original wife.
At the same time, in the back house of the Ning family, Ning Zhang heard people talking about the missing cloth as soon as she got up in the morning.
She knew then that something was wrong.
Although I don’t know which link went wrong, since the cloth has been found, it means that the cult’s plan has failed.
And once what he had done was known to Ning Shanfeng, the consequences would be unimaginable.
So she immediately began to collect the gold and silver items and planned to escape.
Over the years, relying on Ning Shanfeng's love for her, Ning Zhang had saved a fortune of gold and silver, which was enough for the rest of her life. But when she packed her bags and was about to go out, she was stopped by several servants. Way to go.
"What are you doing? Why don't you get out of the way?" Ning Zhang said in a stern tone.
"Madam, I'm really sorry. The master just sent someone here to tell you that he has something important to tell you later and asked you to wait at home."
Ning Zhang's face turned pale, knowing that the matter had been exposed, but she still held on and said: "I am going to see the master now, please let me go quickly."
But these servants were unmoved at all and tightly surrounded Ning Zhang.
When Ning Zhang saw this, she simply threw a tantrum.
"Are you thinking of using slaves to deceive the master? Come quickly and take these slaves away to me."
She yelled, trying to muddy the waters.
Some of her confidants actually came after hearing the news and formed a confrontation with these servants.
But at this moment, a cold snort came.
"What? I'm not dead yet, are you planning to rebel?"
"master!"
The servants quickly retreated.
Only Mrs. Ning Zhang and her confidants were left standing in the field.
Ning Zhang's expression changed, but she still managed to smile and said: "Old... Master, you are back!"
Ning Shanfeng didn't smile at all and raised his hand to point at the old ladies.
"Come here, take these old ladies down, break one of their hands, and then drive them out of the Ning family."
These old ladies never expected such a result, and they couldn't help crying for their fathers and mothers, begging for mercy.
But Ning Shanfeng was not moved at all.
After these old ladies were forcibly dragged away, Ning Shanfeng said to Ning Zhang, who was already ashen-faced.
"At any rate, you've been following me for so long, so go back to the house and finish it off yourself."
"Master!" Mrs. Ning Zhang fell to her knees with a plop, kowtowing like a chicken pecking at rice.
"I was confused for a moment, please forgive me this time. I will serve you like a cow and a horse from now on, and I will never dare to do anything wrong again."
As she spoke, she knelt forward a few steps, hugged one of Ning Shanfeng's legs, and begged.
But Ning Shanfeng kicked her to the ground with one kick, and said with a stern expression: "I'll say it again, if you still want to save the last bit of dignity, you should go back to the house and end it yourself. Otherwise, don't blame me for ignoring the old feelings and doing it myself."
Ning Zhang froze on the spot.
At this moment, Ning Shan rushed over.
As soon as she saw him, Mrs. Ning Zhang seemed to be grasping at straws and cried heartbreakingly.
"Shan'er, please beg me for mercy, your father is going to beat me to death!"
Ning Shan just wanted to speak.
Ning Shanfeng already said: "Didn't I ask you to talk to Shaoxia Zhao in front? What are you doing here?"
"Shao Xia Zhao asked me to come over and take a look." Ning Shan whispered.
Ning Shanfeng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "That's fine, it seems that Zhao Shaoxia wants you to understand something."
"Then keep an eye on it!"
As he said that, Ning Shanfeng grabbed Ning Zhang's hair and dragged her into the room regardless of how she begged for mercy.
Ning Shan was frightened when she saw it. Just as she was about to follow him, Ning Shanfeng's voice came from the room.
"Wait outside!"
At the same time, Mrs. Ning Zhang's cry suddenly disappeared, as if something had blocked her mouth and nose, and only a slight whimpering sound could be heard.
After a moment, the voice completely disappeared. Ning Shanfeng slowly walked out of the room and said to Ning Shan, whose face had turned pale.
"I didn't want you to see this originally, but since Young Master Zhao asked you to come, then you can take a look."
"Come, take the lady's body out, and say that she was seriously ill and in unbearable pain, and she hanged herself from the beam."
"yes!"
A servant came forward and carried Ning Zhang's body out.
Ning Shan just glanced at it and turned away in fright.
Because Mrs. Ning Zhang's face was livid, her eyes were wide open, and there was a deep pinch mark on her neck. She looked absolutely terrifying.
"Do you think I'm cruel?" Ning Shanfeng asked.
Ning Shan didn't say anything, but her face was full of panic.
"I know what you are thinking, but compared with what she did, what I did is not cruel at all, because without Shaoxia Zhao, you, my father and my daughter, including this huge family business, would have been wiped out. ”
Speaking of this, Ning Shanfeng's expression became solemn.
"Remember, if ordinary people like you and me want to gain a foothold in this world, we must first know how to advance and retreat with awe, and never do things you shouldn't do. But if someone wants to trap you to death, then you have to give up everything. Emotions, fight him to the death."
"This is not cruelty, this is a way of survival."
Ning Shan nodded thoughtfully.
When the father and daughter returned to the front living room, Zhao Ya smiled.
"Is the matter done?"
Ning Shanfeng also smiled, "Well, it's done!"
After saying that, he sat across from Zhao Ya, feeling very tired.
After all, he had just recovered from a long illness, and he had just strangled to death his wife Xu Xian, whom he had shared the same bed with for many years. He was naturally exhausted due to the excitement in his heart.
However, he still managed to cheer up and told Ning Shan: "Go to the ancestral hall and bring over the armor that was enshrined."
"yes!"
Ning Shan turned and left.
Zhao Ya smiled and said, "Actually, Shopkeeper Ning doesn't need to be so anxious."
"You have to keep your word. Whoever can help us find the lost cloth will be given this heirloom armor. Now that Zhao Shaoxia's matter has been completed, how can I delay?"
Looking at Ning Shanfeng with a serious look on his face, Zhao Ya suddenly felt a little admiration.
Whether it was his decisiveness when dealing with the person next to him or his sincerity at this time, it was enough to prove that Ning Shanfeng was an extremely good businessman.
So Zhao Ya picked up the teacup and said, "In that case, I'll have tea instead of wine. Thank you, shopkeeper Ning."
Ning Shanfeng was flattered and quickly picked up the cup.
"Young Master Zhao is so polite. This is what I should do."
At this moment, Ning Shan walked in quickly, holding a brocade box in both hands.
When it was placed on the table and opened, it was revealed to be a set of exquisitely shaped soft armor.
Zhao Ya reached out and picked it up, only to feel that the armor was warm to the touch and was extremely light. He didn't know what material it was made of.
"This armor is the work of the armor-forging master of Wanshou County. The material used is said to be a precious metal passed down from overseas. It is not only light in weight, but also has very good defensive power."
"I have been hiding this armor behind the ancestral tablets in the ancestral hall for worship before, and I didn't dare to show it at all. This time I really encountered an insurmountable dilemma, so I took it out out of desperation."
"But the treasure armor is given to the hero. It is just a dead thing in my hands, but it will definitely shine in the hands of Zhao Shaoxia. It can be regarded as a wise choice."
Ning Shanfeng introduced the origin of Baojia, and finally sighed.
Zhao Ya said nothing, but a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.
Just now, he quietly exerted 50% of his strength and squeezed the armor. As a result, no mark was left on the armor.
You must know that with the blessing of the three major visceral talents, Zhao Ya's strength far exceeds that of people in the same realm. Even in terms of strength alone, some warriors from the fourth realm are no match for him.
This 50% force can crush even a stone, but the armor does not move at all, which shows how strong the defense is.
Putting on this armor, Zhao Ya even had the confidence to fight against the warriors of the Four Realms.
So he didn't refuse, put on his armor and left.
Ning Shan saw him out and suddenly said thank you before leaving.
Zhao Ya smiled when he heard this and said, "You're welcome, I'm using money to eliminate disasters for others. Since I took your armor, I naturally have to handle this matter for you."
Ning Shan had gotten rid of her previous panic at this time, and she smiled and shook her head.
"That's different. After all, you not only recovered the cloth, but also found out the murderer behind the scenes."
"Aren't you sad?" Zhao Ya smiled.
"I'm not sad anymore. Now that I think about it, my father was right. You missed your old relationship, but she didn't hesitate at all when she betrayed you."
"And that's why you asked me to go to the backyard, right?"
"Haha, Miss Ning, please stay, I'm leaving!"
Zhao Ya didn't answer, just said to stay, and then strode away.
Looking at his back, Ning Shan brushed her hair from her ears, smiled brightly, and turned around to go back.
Soon, news spread that thousands of pieces of fabric from the Ning family disappeared, only to be found by Zhao Ya overnight, and soon reached Shang Luoluo's ears.
