Chapter 15: Basic Manner
It's been a month since Hao Jiazhi had sent his letter to Zheng Zhen and there is some stuff that has changed more than HaoJiazhi had asked for
At first, it was only 70 people working in '5 Shadows' but the need for men increased more and more as they had to control 2 districts and these 2 districts are not small
So, the structure of the team is like this now-
Mao Xue, Fighter team's head, now has 60 people under him. 20 in each district and rest on standby
Xu Hai, head of the Assassination team, now has 15 females under her. 5 in each district and rest on standby
Fu Yu, head of the poison team, now has 10 people under him. 3 in each district and rest on standby
Meng Bai, head of the blacksmith team, now has 15 people under him. 3 in each district and the rest on standby
Zheng Zhen, head of the administration team, now has 20 people under him. 4 in each district and the rest on standby
There are now a total of 120 people working in '5 shadows' and all of them are well trained
Each had their own role that they have to full fill it no matter what
The fighter team's role is to keep things ongoing with no hiccups and be ready to fight. All people in this team have their own sword/crossbow and small armors on them
The assassination team's role is to assassinate those who can be a pain in the ass in the future, whom the fighter team can't kill
The poison team's role is to create a new poison or find the cure of the current list of poison that has no cure so far. Their role is to keep the health of the whole organization all well
The blacksmith team role is creating new weapons or any other item for the team. This team may seem that they don't have much use as weapons can be bought from the market, which is true, but they are the core people
They create custom weapons for each person's needs and also armors for them. Not only that, but they also make armor for horses, and right now they are working on creating carrots and more stuff
Each weapon that is held by every single person in the organization is custom made according to the users need and skill
And finally, the Administration team
Their job is to make sure everything is reported to Hao Jiazhi and also keep things ongoing in the organization with no troubles
This may sound no big deal, but the flow of money is checked by them and the money amount is not small. It's in millions
And if any single thing happened to the money, they know very well just how bad their future will get.
Now let's talk about the profit-
Around 4 million ban liang is being deposited to Hao Jiazhi's mansion, every month, and the rest of the money is kept in the base of 5 shadows for future needs
And the money that Hao Jiazhi earns from his own business is more than 500,000 per months (without paying tax, tax is around 20%)
So, the total earning he has is around 4,500,000 Ban Liang per month. Which is no doubt just too much, but…
But we are talking about Hao Jiazhi here, his desire for money is more and more
Present time-
More than 4million ban liang moves in the 5 shadows base, so for sure there are people who will eye on it
And now its question-answer time, which is bigger, Greed or Fear of death?
Its greed
There were a total of 5 people who tried to take the money out of the treasury of 5 shadows or more particularly the money that was going to be delivered this month (7th month) to Hao Jiazhi
Thanks to Xu Hai's team, a girl saw this and informed her, and things didn't go bad
Right now, those 5 men are being tied in the small wooden house as they are being interrogated by Mao Xue
"Are there any other people with you?" Mao Xue asked those 5 men who are breathing heavily after being beaten for hours
"no…" They replied in a low tone
Mao Xue doesn't know what to say or do here, these 5 men will die for sure but what about the future? Will more people commit this scene again?
He has various questions in his head, but suddenly a small voice of an eagle was heard around the base of 5 shadows
The eagle landed on Zheng Zhen's shoulder
Zheng Zhen took the letter out of the eagle's leg and read it
"Our lord is coming" Zheng Zhen said to them
Hearing this news, Mao Xue, Fu Yu, and Meng Bai took a deep breath and sweat appeared on their forehead as they remembered a certain day
Their uneasiness was well noticed by Xu Hai and Zheng Zhen but they didn't understand it as they haven't witnessed anything harsh or gore yet
Next day-
"You have created the base quite well" Hao Jiazhi said to Zheng Zhen, praising him for creating a small village like area in the forest of Jinyi District which is away from population and near the mountains
Zheng Zhen bowed and said "thank you"
Soon, other people and men's also appeared. Everyone bowed to him and witnessed just who the real head or person is behind their organization
They still don't know that Hao Jiazhi is a prince
Hao Jiazhi nodded to them and asked for people who tried to take his money away
Xu Hai led him to a certain small wooden house
Inside the room-
"So it's you people…." Hao Jiazhi said with a smile as he looked at those 5 men
Inside the room, there was not much space so only a few entered the room
Hao Jiazhi asked, "So, was it worth it?"
But no men answered his question
This made Hao Jiazhi quite angry as he doesn't like it when people don't respond to him when he is being humble
He turned around and whispered something into the ears of Meng Bai, blacksmith
Something that made the eyes of Meng Bai goes all wide
Meng Bai didn't want to follow what he was told but he has to do it. He goes out and then brought something back
In the meantime, Hao Jiazhi asked to put a table in front of one of the 5 men and also untie his one hand
This whole process made all 5 men woke up a bit, but it should have been better if they had been sleeping
Hao Jiazhi took a hammer and a long screw from Meng Bai and then told 2 men to hold the hand of that person (whose hand is untied)
Hao Jiazhi spread the palm of that person on the table and then put the sharp nib of the screw above the center of that man's palm
Hao Jiazhi aimed his hammer on the screw and with no expression; he said "When I ask you something, it means that you have to reply. That's a basic manner"
*BANG*
"AAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!"
