Chapter 30: take your time
Many of you might be wondering about Han Yachun right?
After all, she had been getting very few scenes or presence so far, but don't worry as her time has come
Han Yachun was forced to take special martial art training with various servants and also took various other types of training as she is the main attendant or the person who represents Hao Jiazhi
Thus, so far she rarely showed by the side of Hao Jaizhi but now that she is all ready, Hao Jiazhi will use her and her skills when he really needs it
Right now she is sitting in front of Mo Xinyi in his office
"So, it was 4th prince huh?" Mo Xinyi asked as his face is in a downward direction
"yes, it was my master, your lord, Hao Jiazhi that has taken this province (Jinmen) under his control. Now everything will go with his desire… if you try to be a smart guy, you know what could happen… so please worry about your family before doing something stupid" Han Yachun said with her serious face
Over the past year and a few months, the Han Yachun has changed up a lot
It could be said that it is the influence of Hao Jiazhi but it's not just his influence as Hao Jiazhi had made a special place in her heart
Now, she just wants to try her best to get noticed by him. So she trained hard and tried to be who she is today, someone who can get a few words of praise from Hao Jiazhi
Mo Xinyi gave a casual nod and said "Just a year…. And that's all it took him to take over the whole province? Hahahaha… seems like 4th prince is really something"
Han Yachun nods and had a few talks with him, then she leaves
As for Hao Jiazhi, he is right now abroad
Qinjiang, Capital City/Province of Dongping Kingdom-
Lu Long made sure that the arrival of Hao Jiazhi is not a normal one and gives him a big greeting
After that Lu Long told Hao Jiazhi to take a rest for a day and then talk the matter
Hao Jiazhi was not in a hurry so he accepted it and took a rest, and finally, today is the day when he will have a few words with him
Also, Hao Jiazhi is not alone as he got his 2 guards by his sides (Xiao Cai and Wang Liang)
Study room of Lu Long-
Right now Lu Long and Hao Jiazhi are sitting in front of each other and taking a sip of tea
"So, what type of help do you want in the business?" Lu Long asked
Hao Jiazhi puts his cup of tea down on the table and started talking
He said "First of all, I want to know the full structure of tax system on all types of business as I will be doing different types of business and also I want to know about the price of properties"
Lu Long nods and said "It's easy, you don't have to worry. I'll tell my attendant to give you full details about all the question regarding business here and also, I will give you financial help'
"No thanks, I want to stand on my feet with my own strength. So there is no need to help me financially, but if I do find some problem then for sure I will ask your help" Hao Jiazhi said with a smile and declined his offer
It was a normal chat as both sides were happy, but both of them know that they haven't talked about something serious yet
Now, who will begin the question first?
And it is Lu Long
"By the way, I have a question. Can I ask?" Lu Long asked
Hao Jiazhi nodded and told him to go ahead
With a smile, Lu Long asked "Tell me the real reason for your arrival"
Hao Jiazhi made a fake confused expression but Lu Long told him that he knows that he is here for something else
Lu Long said, "There is no way that you are here for some business deal only as it's something that you can do it without my need, so what is it that you really want?"
Hao Jiazhi nodded and said "You are right, I can handle business stuff by myself and I am here for something else"
"What is it?" Lu Long asked
"But before that, I have a question for you. Can I ask?" Hao Jiazhi asked without giving him the answer of his question
Lu Long became curious about Hao Jiazhi's question and because he is inside his home, he doesn't need to worry much. So he asked about his question
"Why are you helping me?" Hao Jiazhi asked
Lu Long didn't understand his question, so Hao Jiazhi explained it "Why is the 2nd prince of the Dongping Kingdom helping me, 4th prince of a very small kingdom that has no military power with it
Why are you helping me, who has no connection or power?
Why?"
To his question, Lu Long laughed and said "you don't have any power? Really?"
Hao Jiazhi gave no expression
Lu Long stopped his smiled and then said "because I know you're worth"
At this, Hao Jiazhi gave a doubtful expression
Lu Long explained "I have seen your skill, you have skills when it comes to words and as far as I know… The one who controls words can also control other people's mind
I know that you will go far in the future, so, you are worth my time and money"
Lu Long takes a sip from his tea and said "Now your turn to tell you the reason for coming here"
Hao Jiazhi nodded and asked, "You know about the fight/war that could have taken in Province Kuwon right?"
Lu Long nodded and said "Yes, I know… after all 500 men were killed in one night. Everyone knows it"
"And that's where I need your help…
Those soldiers are from the Liaohua Kingdom and there is no way they will be silent about it
Even though it was not done by us, still they will think of us as their enemy. So I want you to help us or me in preventing them from announcing any type of stupid war on us" Hao Jiazhi said to him
Lu Long smiled and said "You think too much, there is no way those people will announce war on your kingdom as other kingdoms won't take it nicely
But they can ask for some money for the damage"
"And that's where I need your help. I want you to stop them from asking for any type of extortion money, as the one who is the victim is us. Not them
So can you help us?" Hao Jiazhi asked
Lu Long took a long breath and then he said "I am not the emperor of this kingdom so I don't have much power but still I can request the emperor for help"
Hao Jiazhi nodded and was about to say thanks but Lu long was not finished
He said "But, asking help from the emperor is not a small thing. So you have to do something or pay for it"
"And what do I have to do or pay?" Hao Jiazhi asked
Lu Long called his attendant and brought a paper to Hao Jiazhi
The paper had something written on it that made Hao Jiazi gave out a wry smile
"I'll need some time to think about it" Hao Jiazhi said to Lu Long
"You can take your time" Lu Long said to him
