Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

Chapter 263: Chapter 181: Youth in White (3-in-1 Mega Chapter)_3

His gaze towards Fang Yu shimmered with light.

”Sir! Sir, I remember now! Our Mo Family does indeed run a Peony Workshop!”

”I’ve also overheard the Family Head mentioning in their conversations, it seems that the Peony Workshop is involved in some shady transactions.”

”But I haven’t been involved! I’m innocent, Lord! I’m clean, Lord!”

Seeing Fang Yu’s increasingly impatient expression, Third Elder Mo felt his heart sinking and panicked completely.

”No! Sir, I, I, I think I saw the recent slave trade list once, I believe there were no names like Diao Ruonian on it! There shouldn’t be...”

Upon hearing this, Fang Yu’s expression eased slightly, narrowing his eyes.

”Really not there.”

It was a casual tone, yet it made Third Elder Mo dare not reply lightly.

After contemplating for a while, he hesitantly stuttered.

”I, I don’t know! Please, Sir, don’t hurry to kill me! Listen to me! I really don’t know anything!”

”I’m not responsible for this, the handing over of the lists, that’s all controlled by the Family Head, the Eldest Young Master and their family. I only knew a little about their methods of capturing people.”

”I’ve confessed everything! I can testify against the Family Head’s crimes for you! I’m still useful to you, Sir! I still have use!”

At that moment, the prison guard reacted and began vigorously recording with brush and ink.

But Fang Yu merely looked coldly at the pleading Third Elder Mo.

”So, you’re responsible for the actual capturing part? But you don’t remember whether you have captured my elder brother or not?”

Elder brother?

Who captured this calamity!

Which one of his incompetent subordinates did this!

Didn’t they know to check the background before capturing someone!

Third Elder Mo was utterly infuriated.

From out of nowhere came this disaster; it turns out someone related to a powerful background was captured.

Mad! Utterly mad!

This old man is going to die at the hands of these incompetents!

Third Elder Mo could never imagine that after so many smooth years, he would stumble on this matter.

”It seems, you do know something?”

Fang Yu asked again, but Third Elder Mo only displayed a bitter face.

”Sir, I don’t know, I really don’t know about your elder brother’s whereabouts. I’ve never even heard of [Diao Ruonian]!”

”Is that so.”

Fang Yu’s voice returned to indifference and he raised his sword to strike.

”Sir!!”

Third Elder Mo yelled in horror.

”Anything else you want to say?”

”Sir, Sir, please listen, I know where they sell all the slaves! I know it!”

”Oh?”

Fang Yu’s interest was piqued, and he slowly lowered the sword.

”Speak.”

As Fang Yu lowered his sword, Third Elder Mo’s heart, which had been hanging in his throat, finally settled a bit.

But immediately afterward, he tensed up nervously, trying to gather his thoughts.

Though he truly wasn’t responsible for certain parts, having stayed with the Mo Family for so many years, some things aren’t hard to dig up, after all, there’s no impenetrable wall under heaven.

Not to mention he has been granted the ”Mo” surname, becoming an insider after staying with the Mo Family for many years.

”Our Mo Family’s slave trading, typically, we rarely sell to local masters.”

”Because the risk is high, capturing people locally and then selling them locally. If investigated, it would cause trouble.”

”So normally, our slaves are transported through posthouses using special methods, taking long journeys, sold to bigger cities farther away.”

”Since you’ve asked today, Sir, I might as well speak clearly.”

”Our business operates in three steps.”

”The first step, is selecting targets to strike. Sometimes it’s a customer placing a specific order needing particular traits, then we make a move.”

”Sometimes, it’s just routine stocking up, picking personnel, conducting background checks, then making the move.”

”Usually, we don’t strike many times a month, spacing them out to remain low-key.”

”Tianyuan Town has a large population, but disappearances are frequent, especially in areas like the West Quarter, a poor district.”

”Therefore, we have always been very discreet in this area, almost never getting caught.”

”Even when occasionally slipping up, it would be handled stealthily by our... our people.”

”Once we have the goods, we proceed to the second step, which is packaging.”

”Since our main clientele are from larger cities a bit farther away, we inevitably face issues with cargo transportation.”

”Normal methods such as convoy escorts are unrealistic and too risky for us.”

”So, we package the slaves.”

”For safety, we rarely use our own properties for this operation; instead, we spread the risk.”

”Not many cooperate with our shop for this, because it’s risky and not many people can know about it.”

”Just recently, it should be through Ten Directions Tea House’s channels that we sold goods.”

”After all, tea houses have a seasonal nature; during specific seasons, they can buy and sell in large quantities without arousing suspicion.”

”By disguising slaves as goods like tea, we package and disguise them.”

”Finally, it enters the third phase of our operation, which is transportation.”

”There are many posthouses in Tianyuan Town, but only a few are willing and trustworthy enough to cooperate with us.”

”Guangyuan Inn, Cai Yuan Inn, Harvest Inn, Four Seas Inn, and Guaranteed Arrival Post.”

”Just like the goods needing to be re-packaged periodically, switching a shop or stall, repacking into pork, fabric, even timber and carpentry products, with these five posthouses, we also take turns.”
