Chapter 50: The evil mind of Lu Long

2months before Lu Long came-

District Jinyi, the base of 5 shadows

Current earning- 90 million Ban Liang per month

"Is everyone here?" Han Yachun asked as she sits on a chair

Around her are all 5 shadows, after the leave of Hao Jiazhi, it's her who lead the whole organization all by herself as only few time Hao Jiazhi gave her commands

"Yes, Miss Han Yachun" All 5 shadows responded

"So, how is the work for new medicine going on?" Han Yachun asked the medical team's head, Fu Yu

"It's going alright Miss Han Yachun, by increasing the number of herbs I have somewhat come closer to curing this 'Ring of Death' Disease" Fu Yu replied

With the help of spies in the Dongping Kingdom, Han Yachun had long come to know that there is a new disease that has spread in some tribal people and now it's inside the Dongping Kingdom

When this information was given to Hao Jiazhi, he said that this could be the best thing that he could put to make sure that Lu Long will assist him in future

After all, right now both of them have a business type relationship

Thus, the work for new medicine has been started

It's not just this, but Fu Yu with his medical team has found out the various cure for many types of disease that not even the imperial medicine team couldn't find

The reason behind them finding a cure is not because they are some genius, but rather they have more brains to work on

As compared to the imperial medical team where each doctor thinks of himself much higher than other doctors, they don't share their knowledge with them and the result is they do research in something that one doctor has long done

But here in 5 shadows, they 5 head or leader excelling in their field and with their men, they helped each other in making their goal nearer and nearer

And because they all share their faults and discovery so far, they are able to make progress much faster than any other

Han Yachun nodded in satisfaction and then asked Meng Bai, head of the blacksmith team, about a new weapon he has been working on

"hahaa, here is the prototype of the upcoming weapon" Meng Bai said as he puts a crossbow on the table

"it's same as usual" Mao Xue said as he looks at the crossbow

Meng Bai shakes his head and said "No-No-No… it looks like the usual crossbow but it is not the same as the bow area is a few centimeters bigger and also, it's a little heavy

*everyone nods*

As for its feature, hehehee…

This baby now shoots much faster than the older crossbows and also the range of arrows you can shoot has also been increased

Not only that, as compared to old models where the rope breaks when used at a high speed, this time I can guarantee that this bow will last way longer than you could imagine

The reloading speed as also been improved with a new mechanism"

Mao Xue picks the crossbow and asks "How strong will be the arrows launched from this?"

This question is really important, as everyone knows that traditional bows are much stronger at the speed of arrows as they have a wide area to take the pressure but crossbows used to break when the bow or the string was pulled too much

Also, the speed of reloading was also slow

Making traditional Bow much more preferred by the fighting team or the unit that provides support as it was much more reliable

Meng Bai gave a wide smile and said "Enough to pierce your shield and also if I put my new arrows, it will be enough to pierce some thin metal sheet also"

This made everyone all shocked as piercing metal sheet is not an easy thing

"I guess I have to try this new toy" Mao Xue said as he holds the crossbow

Meng Bai smiles at him and says "Off-course, be my guest"

Han Yachun gave a smile as she looked at the 5 leaders, after all,

All of these people were picked by Hao Jiazhi and he had put some good amount of fear in them to make sure they don't betray him

But look today, these leader/peoples are no longer what they used to be

All of them have stayed here for so long that now they all think of this organization as a home where they got a chance to live and improve their skills

At first, it was just Hao Jiazhi's dream to make his organization big, but now it is not just his dream but everyone in this organization

Everyone wants their organization name to be spread throughout the world

Present time at Zhanyi District, border of Kuwon

"I'll make sure to send these items to your border and the rest will be done by you" Hao Jiazhi said to Lu Long as both of them came outside of the barn

Lu Long is really in a happy mood right now, he said "I never knew that my blind investment would help me this much"

Hao Jiazhi smiled at his words and said "It's all for our good relation, after all in this small dangerous world, one needs to hold the back of another one. That's how one can survive"

Lu Long understood what Hao Jiazhi meant, so he said "Yes, you are right. That's why, I, the 2nd prince of Dongping kingdom will make sure to provide some good assistant to you and your kingdom when the times are rough"

Both of them silently smiled and then left the place

Lu Long had some various question in his mind regarding the medicine, like how did he know about the disease in his kingdom and how did he know the cure of it, etc-etc

But to all these questions, Hao Jiazhi said that he can believe in his medicine and also that the disease is not man-made but natural (or something else?)

Right now Lu Long is on his way back to his home/kingdom-

"This Hao Jiazhi is not the person I thought him to be… He is much more useful than I predicted. I guess, this kingdom can have his time of peace for a few more years

*looking at his attendant Xu Yijun*

Tell our sleeper soldiers to remain asleep and also our friends in the Liahua Kingdom that it's not the time to attack them yet

This kingdom still has various secrets that are still unknown, just like those herbs that can be only grown there" Lu Long said to his attendant
