Throne

Chapter 12: Going Back

The party ended and various guests left the place, But during this whole party the Emperor didn't show up

This clearly showed that the emperor doesn't favor Hao Jiazhi much, but it's for now as no one knows the future

Song Xia, and her family, operates a huge number of businesses in the capital city and also owns various farmlands

Thus, they own a big amount of share when it comes to kingdoms treasure and ongoing economy

This is the reason why Emperor Hao Zhenya can't do much and also the reason why Hao Jiazhi's brother hates him so much

Still didn't understand the reason for hate?

How does the kingdom or house works?

What is that core thing that keeps the household on-going?

On which thing, we all depend for survival?

It's not food, or some stupid relation type thing

It's MONEY

Money means power

And because Song Xia has money by her side, not even the emperor could dare to do anything stupid against her, though Song Xia is not his main wife still he can't just overlook her

Hao Ming and Hao Lei (2 big brothers of Hao Jiazhi) knows this and they also know that if Queen Song Xia tries to put all of her resources into making her son the emperor, there is a big chance that she will be successful

After all, everyone loves money and there is no doubt that more than 90% of ministers are corrupt and only care about themselves

Leaving these political things aside, let's get back to the main story

Hao Jiazhi enjoyed his time with his mother but now it's time for him to leave

So far, it's been only 3 or 4 days that he has stayed here and nothing much has happened with his little organization also

Hao Jiazhi expressed his wish to move back to his house in Huangyi (district/place in Jinmen) but her mother said no

She said "Son, you are now officially fighting for the throne so it's better to stay by your mother's side and stay safe while fighting for the throne"

A mother's worry

Hao Jiazhi understood her words clearly and what she wanted to point out, but what she doesn't know is that Hao Jiazhi is a type of person who doesn't play on others plan but makes other people play in his plan

She is worried that her son is new to this political game and will surely end up in a bad state if she doesn't show some support directly but Hao Jiazhi don't care about these small things

Hao Jiazhi knows what true politics is and knows very well how to swim with sharks in the ocean

He is not new to these games

Hao Jiazhi gave a smile to his mother and said "Those 4 spies that are roaming around my house and had been following to till this day, Mother I want to you to tell them to fall back as I don't like people having their eyes on me"

This made Song Xia shocked as the people she had hired for keeping eyes on her son are true professionals who can disguise themselves and be around you without you noticing them for even a moment

But how did her son knew it?

Was this the reason why her son gave a smile whenever he looked around the street because he knew that there are people around him who are having their eyes on him?

"You have grown up…." Song Xia said in a surprised tone

Hao Jiazhi felt really good at her praise and with a smile, he continued his words

"Mother, there is nothing you have to worry about. If I want the throne, I will take it by myself" Hao Jiazhi said to her

Finally, his mother nodded and said "Ok, you can do as you wish but if you ever need any help, don't forget about your mother"

At this, Hao Jiazhi said "Off –course, actually I do need your help in something"

"What is it?" Song Xia asked

Huangyi City-

Hao Jiazhi's mansion-

Han Yachun, with the guidance provided by Hao Jiazhi, had been handling all matters by herself without letting them know that Hao Jiazhi is away

The '5 shadows' have found a small base and are now operating thing's from there

So far, they had fully gained control over the Jinyi district and also make sure to assist people, living in that district, in their feuds/fights

Why?

Because these farmers and merchants are there chicken who give them golden egg so they don't want to harm their money source

Mao Xue now has 20 fighters under him

Fu Yu now has 5 people under his poison/medical department

Meng Bai now has 5 people in his blacksmith department and it seems like he is doing good in making swords and armors for the organization

Zheng Zhen now has 10 people in his administration department

There are now 44 head people in '5 shadows'

This means that the money need has also increased by a lot

40 (people) x 200 (salary) = 8000 ban liang

4 (heads) x 800 (salary) = 3200 ban liang

Total = 11200 ban liang per month

And the revenue he gets is only 12000 ban liang, this means that he only has a profit of 800 ban liang

Also, there are many other people who want to join his organization but for the time being Han Yachun have told them to not recruit anyone

She has long gotten a letter through a crow that Hao Jiazhi will be returning back soon

After 2 days-

"Welcome back, My lord" Han Yachun said with a smile

"Yeah, I am back" Hao Jiazhi said with a smile and then went back inside the mansion

But

He is not alone, as there are 11 beautiful females coming out of another carriage and Hao Jiazhi is carrying some big stuff with him

Also, there are 4 strong men coming inside the mansion while carrying some big boxes

Han Yachun don't know what is going on but she didn't bother much and just stayed by the side of Hao Jiazhi
