[The Ingenious One]

[Episode 11: Sentiments Blooming in Moonlight]

This can't do.

These papers will become worthless soon.

Yes.

This is such a big loss.

What should we do?

Everyone.

I've sent someone to investigate the rumor

about the attack on the trade caravan.

There is no conclusive news yet.

But remember,

the Chamber of Commerce will keep my promise.

Any merchant who fails to redeem the raw silk

after the deadline will be refunded

at the same price as the date of sale.

So you won't suffer any loss.

And the pledge is not due until tomorrow.

Why can't you keep it

for one more day?

If the rumor is true,

everyone will rush to redeem it tomorrow.

I'm afraid the pledge will become useless by then.

Yes.

You must pay us back today.

Yes.

That's right. Refund! Refund!

Refund! Refund!

Calm down, everyone.

Chairperson Su will address your concerns.

Heaven favors diligence, business favors trustworthiness.

Today, I pledge my family's century-old business

and my role as the Chairperson as collateral.

If someone fails to redeem their

raw silk or receive compensation tomorrow,

I will sell my family business

and give up my position as the Chairperson

to compensate everyone.

But the batch of raw silk is missing now.

How promising can it be tomorrow?

That's right.

Pay us! Pay us!

The news of the attack on the Su caravan has spread.

People crowded outside Su Family's doors early this morning.

Why do you sigh?

Did you also buy the Su’s pledge?

I don't understand and I don't want to get involved.

But Miss Su has always been kind to people.

I don't know who she offended this time

to cause the Su family to suffer this way.

Really?

You must have made the clothes

worn by everyone in the Su family.

Yes, ever since I was an apprentice.

It has been 40 years since then.

No matter how the world changes,

we shouldn't give craftsmen a hard time.

If the Su family falls,

you shall be in charge of making clothes for

the Cao Sect's members and families.

Thank you, Master Qi.

[At 5 a.m. tonight, the raw silk will reach the Double Stone Pier in the east of the city]

When profit is concerned,

Mr. Mo is indeed responsible.

Any other news?

Today, some escaping escorts returned to the city.

According to them, the caravan was forced

into an abandoned inn by the bandits.

But they did not expect that the bandits had

dug a tunnel to ambush them in the chaos.

They even burned all the raw silk.

It's not an elaborate plan,

but it's enough.

Any casualties?

If the rumor is true, the caravan was able

to repel several large groups of bandits.

They must have suffered great damage.

Anyway, we did not receive any news

of your friends' whereabouts yet.

Thank you for your hospitality over the past few days.

I'll take my leave.

Wait, Young Master.

It's better for you to stay.

Why?

Mr. Mo said before the truth is out,

someone would try to kill you.

Don't worry about me.

Take good care of Mr. Mo.

Rong,

is the rumor true?

Don't worry, my lady.

Someone really saw

Shu Yanan and Jin Biao

escort him out of the encirclement.

But right now, I really can't tell

if this was part of Young Master Xiang's plan.

He's from Yuntai.

Everyone can be his pawn.

Confidants mean nothing to him.

This can't do.

I'm going to look for Mingyu.

My lady.

[Liansheng House]

If the rumor is true, the caravan was able

to repel several large groups of bandits.

They must have suffered great damage.

Anyway, we did not receive any news of your friends' whereabouts yet.

Mr. Yun.

Has anyone come to seek me recently?

Chairperson Su was here.

She said to let her know if you're back.

I've been back for four hours.

Why are you still here?

The Su family is in chaos

because of my plan.

You're afraid they'll make things difficult for me.

I believe you didn't mean

for things to turn out this way.

It's been half a month since I bought this place.

How are preparations for the opening?

I feel relieved

to hear you ask about that.

If you had other intentions, you wouldn't

have let Sister Shu and Brother Jin escort him.

When Mr. Su comes back,

I'll arrange for the opening.

What if Mr. Su can't come back?

If Sister Shu can't come back,

what will you do?

I'm feeling a bit drunk.

I'm going back to rest.

Qian Rong.

Yanwu Master once said,

no one can counter this move within ten breaths.

You people from Yuntai

are too arrogant to know the world.

No wonder they say that no one in Nandu City

dares to take on the Su family by force.

They are all wrong.

No one dares to take on my lady

regardless of methods.

If you kill me,

aren't you afraid that my sect will take revenge?

I have killed countless people in the past.

I've managed to live till now.

But I can return my life to Su's Residence anytime.

Dare to have a bet with me?

Kill me,

and see how long it takes for

my people from Yuntai to find the murderer,

and if the Su family will be implicated.

You dare not gamble with me?

Talk to me properly if you dare not.

You're so reckless.

This must not be your chairperson's order.

For the sake of the Su's Residence,

my lady has neglected and damaged her health.

When she's meeting people or receiving goods,

she always dresses herself up

so that no outsiders can tell she's ill.

If anything happens to the Su's Residence,

or any harm is done to my lady because of you,

I will kill you.

In that case,

I've saved my life.

[Double Stone Pier]

Pirates.

Don't panic.

Light the beacon

and convey the military information.

At 5 a.m. today,

raw silk will be transported by sea to the

abandoned Double Stone Pier in the east of the city.

What if it can't make it?

It's easy for you to kill me.

I wouldn't dare to lie to you.

So, from the beginning,

you've decided to take the sea route.

The caravan sent to Yangzhou

was just your bait.

It's inappropriate to call them my bait.

In war, you have to deceive your foes.

I'm just going with the flow

and taking advantage of the situation.

Since ancient times, planners have always

pretended to be bad at the things they are good at

and concealed what they have utilized.

A planner's intentions must be hard to read

and he must only strike after he has planned.

Only then, can he win in a single move.

No matter how you avoid the topic,

you cannot hide the fact that people from Yuntai are hardhearted.

My lady was right.

In your eyes,

everyone is a pawn.

No one who has achieved greatness in history

has done so by prioritizing one moment over another.

As for the Su family's caravan, the coachmen drove

the carriages and the escorts protected them.

Everyone was doing their job.

It was no different from what they usually do.

It's just that they happened to walk into

a part of my plan.

If something had really gone wrong,

I would have heavily compensated for it.

In your eyes,

money can solve everything.

You can make up for lost pawns with money.

But what if you lost close pawns like

Shu Yanan and Jin Biao?

How will you make up for them?

Do you have a better way, Mr. Qian?

Or

even if Qi Tianfeng wins the battle of raw silk,

the Su Family

still has a way to escape unscathed

and safe?

So you mean

I should thank you instead?

Shouldn't you?

That remainds to be seen.

If the raw silk can safely

arrive at the dock today,

you'll be safe.

Otherwise, I will take that

intelligent head of yours.

Have you checked the raw silk inventory

of the Cao Sect?

We've done it as you said.

But we don't understand.

Now that the pledge cannot be fulfilled,

the price of in-stock raw silk will increase.

Why are you in a hurry to sell them now?

An item bought at a discount is already cheaper.

An item sold during a price hike is already more expensive.

This is a business trick.

You don't need to understand it.

Just do as you're told.

Yes.

[Nandu Chamber of Commerce]

Mr. Qian.

Steward Ding.

Have a seat.

The deadline on the 15th has arrived.

Here's the pledge for 30,000 catties of raw silk.

According to the pledge, you need to pay 195,000 taels of silver.

I didn’t expect the Cao Sect

to acquire almost half of the pledge

distributed by the Chamber of Commerce.

Cash on delivery.

Mr. Qian, I'm sure you won't make things

difficult for an errand runner like me.

Please go back and tell Master Qi,

if he can make a comeback one day,

I hope he knows that

there's no guarantee of winning in this world.

His ambition has blinded him.

He didn't notice that he was in imminent peril.

Steward Ding,

take your 30,000 catties worth of pledge

and exchange them for raw silk outside the Eastern City gate.

All 30,000 catties of them

are top-quality silk.

[Pledge]

Later,

Steward Ding will bring tailor Wang over.

Don't stand on ceremony.

Pick the best fabric.

Everyone gets a new set of clothes.

If you have a wife and kids,

they get new clothes too.

Tell everyone.

OK.

Thank you, Master.

Steward Ding.

Your Master.

We're in trouble.

I held the pledge and thought about it while walking.

I thought the Su family must be bluffing.

But when I arrived at the city gate,

the containers were piled up higher than the walls.

How did they manage to import the goods?

The Su's caravan was burnt to crisps.

It's impossible to use the river channels.

The only option left was the sea route.

But the imperial court has banned sea activities for decades.

Even without the military guards,

where did the Su family

get so many cargo ships?

No, wait.

There was a rumor this morning

that pirates entered the river last night.

Could it be them?

Your Master.

We guarded against land and river transport,

but we never thought they would take the sea route.

This is bad.

We betted with everything Cao Sect has.

Get up!

Stand up!

The Cao Sect does not shed tears.

For this deal,

the raw silk took 30,000 taels.

As for hiring the pirate ships...

That bastard, Master Guan, dared to blackmail me.

He demanded 20,000 taels for payment.

Qi Tianfeng borrowed about

50,000 to 60,000 taels in total.

We...

We invested over 100,000 taels of silver.

How much is the business of the Cao Sect worth?

You don't understand.

The Cao Sect's business

can't be bought with money.

Besides,

the Su family owes me a big favor this time.

It can’t be repaid with money either.

Anyway, in the war of raw silk,

the biggest beneficiary is us, Guanghui Bank.

What benefit did Mr. Yun get?

Was all this just to deal with Qi Tianfeng?

You've raised a good point.

He planned everything with utmost care.

In the end, what did he leave for himself?

He left a message before leaving.

But I don't understand it.

What did he say?

He told me to keep you safe.

Master.

Master Qi of the Cao Sect is here.

He wants to see you.

Tell him to wait.

Yes.

Yun Xiang must be referring to him.

the Iron Hand Demon.

I finally get to face him in a fight.

Kid.

Look at you, all raring to go.

Let me tell you.

This person is no ordinary master.

How about this?

Let the shadowman suppress him first.

Then, you can take him down when you get the chance.

Uncle,

I'm looking forward to it.

His palms technique is known for its vicious strength.

By fighting him,

I can improve on my Transforming Palms.

Mingyu.

Where are you hurt?

Sister.

I'm fine.

It's all somebody else's blood.

I'm tired.

Mingyu!

What's wrong with Mingyu?

Something's wrong with him.

I think he should be fine.

Young Master has always been kind.

He must have killed someone.

Let's give him some time to himself.

By the way, my lady.

Warrior Jin and Miss Shu

are waiting for you inside.

This is...

A small leader of the Cao Sect.

He's called Xie Guang.

He set fire to the raw silk.

Which fire?

The one in Yufeng Warehouse,

or the one with the caravan?

What does it have to do with the Yufeng warehouse?

Of course it's this time.

Your brother is also stubborn.

He won't give up even without the goods.

He insisted that we follow the Cao Sect

and nab a member back with us.

Mr. Su said we can only report

to the authorities if we have a witness.

By doing that, even if you go bankrupt,

Qi Tianfeng won't be able to rest in peace.

But I told him that

this person wouldn't talk so easily.

He refused to believe me.

Forget it.

It's nothing important.

Chairperson Su,

we almost died this time.

We didn't bring the raw silk back.

I won't ask for the goods escorting fee.

But I killed at least 30 people

to protect your brother.

That will be 10 taels of gold per kill.

Hero Jin, you risked your life in the fight.

I'm willing to pay double.

Thank you, Chairperson Su.

Miss Shu.

How should I repay you?

According to the trade contract,

if the armed escorts lose the goods,

not only do they not get any payment,

they must also pay for the lost goods.

But they lost a lot this time.

If they still have to compensate for the goods,

I'm afraid the Armed Escort Agency will close down for good.

Once a contract is made, it must be followed.

This is the rule of business.

But I can thank you in my own name.

I will return the compensation sum

and make the agreed payment.

As for any dead or injured escorts,

I'm willing to compensate their families.

No wonder you've been in charge of the Chamber of Commerce for so many years.

You're a chivalrous person.

I admire you.

Please keep your promise.

We'll be leaving now.

Did you know about this before?

This caravan was a bait for Yun Xiang to make a diversion.

If you knew,

why did you risk your life for it?

Yun Xiang...

is capable of anything.

Fortunately, the result is not bad.

You'll get used to it.

Young Master.

Two ladies have been waiting for you

at the backyard door for a while now.

Miss.

I shall go back first.

You're hurt.

Don't touch it.

It's all blood.

It's dirty.

You've never seen me like this, have you?

Don't worry.

It's all minor injuries.

Your magnolia protected me.

You sound so calm.

But you must have suffered a lot.

Tell me about your trip

someday.

You might not like it.

The world is full of heroic emotions.

I used to love

reading about them in books.

I didn't expect you to be a hero too.

It's been some long tiring days.

Let me buy you a drink.

It'll relieve your fatigue.

You're only buying me a drink after earning so much?

You should at least treat me to a boat dinner.

Let's do that next time.

I'll go back to Liansheng House first.

I know why you're going back.

You're probably wrong.

You're either going to meet someone,

or wait for someone.

Miss.

I think you have one too.

Your hands never shake when you behead people.

Yet you blush when she smiles at you?

Let's go. I'll lend you some courage.

Miss Shu.

Jin.

I'm glad you're back safely.

She insisted on coming with me.

But she doesn't say anything now that she's here.

How about I buy everyone a drink?

I need to tend to some chores at the Liansheng House.

Go ahead.

I'm tired too.

Let's drink.

You're busy. You can't go.

What am I busy with?

Rest early.

You must be tired.

You can just treat Tianhu to a drink instead.

Miss Ke, let's go back to Liansheng House.

Jin.

I won't drink today.

I have to help with work when I get back.

Okay, it's up to you.

For now, we...

Let's take a walk.

I've been in Nandu City for years.

But this is my first time

strolling on the street like this.

You're not in a rush,

why can't you take a stroll?

It's a little embarrassing,

but people of our background

don't feel completely safe

even in broad daylight.

Let's stroll to your heart's content today.

I'll protect you.

[Peace and Virtuous]

Jin.

Where is your hometown?

It's a bit complicated.

[Liansheng House]

Mr. Yun.

Miss Shu is taking a bath inside.

I was just leaving for a brief moment,

so I didn't lock the door for her.

Tianhu.

Give him the hot water.

Go back and rest.

Slide the bucket in.

My life-long innocence,

ruined in an instant.

Have you ever been innocent?

You called me here in such a hurry.

You must have something urgent to tell me.

I met Su Huairou just now.

Although she didn't say it outright,

I think

she has figured out the whole story.

What makes you think so?

I don't know. It's just my instinct.

But my instincts are always accurate.

Yanan.

Can you promise me one thing?

Just tell me what you want to do.

If Qian Rong wants to kill me,

don't do anything.

In case you lose your life.

Did he come to you?

I thought with my skills,

I could protect myself within ten moves.

But I couldn't even last one exchange with him.

I didn't expect

him to be such a skilled fighter.

So...

You must...

Why are you looking at me like that?

I'm fine.

What about you?

I'm still in front of you.

What if I didn't come back?

I shouldn't have asked.

I've been like this for decades.

I've never been safe.

My survival depends on luck.

This time was no exception.

I just want to know.

If I did not make it back.

Neither did Jin Biao

nor Su Mingyu make it back.

Will your heart

still remain unmoving?

You're right. You're insanely smart.

You want revenge,

so you must focus on the big picture.

It doesn't matter if others die in vain.

As long as your wish comes true.

Did you know?

These past few days,

I couldn't sleep well.

I've always been calm.

So I kept imagining

what would happen to me

if something happened to you.

I thought I would be numb

to the pain after a few times.

But no.

I don't believe you.

Who knows how many people you've deceived

with your sweet talk.

Do you ever speak the truth?

You still think I'm lying to you now?

You said your instincts are the most accurate.

Look at me and answer me.

Am I lying to you?

I can't tell.

How about now?

People from Yuntai must not fall in love.

You broke a rule.

Maybe I've lost

ever since that gaze in Baiju Town.

Nonsense.

If someone from Yuntai wants to hide something,

they can hide it till they die.

I thought I knew everything.

I thought I could devise a strategy for every situation.

But you, and only you.

You're too hard to figure out.

Have you figured me out now?

You always say that I only know how to lie

and set up everything.

Then why are you willing to risk your life

for such a person?

What are you doing?

I'm a little afraid to

look into your eyes.

Forget it.

There's no need to say it if you don't say it now.
