[English subtitles are available] [The Ingenious One] [Episode 10: Bloodbath to Protect the Raw Silk] [Three days ago, Yangzhou] You know how to wash your clothes too? I’m not familiar with the servants here. I’m not comfortable letting others wash my clothes. We’ve left home. Why are you still so particular?
It’s just a few inches of shabby cloth to protect from the cold. The rest is, but this one is different. Let me see. Is it made of gold? Gold? How can gold compare to this Yulan magnolia? You are a sir and yet wear these flowers and weeds. You don’t understand this.
Take the last words of our names, Su Mingyu and Ke Menglan, and you get this flower, Yulan magnolia. Miss Menglan gave this to me. Fine. Go on hanging your clothes. I think you mentioned something about Yuezhou’s Birdcage Swordplay being a swift swordplay? Do you mean Yuezhou’s Liu family’s Downpour Swordplay?
-It doesn’t matter what it’s called. -What in the world is Birdcage Swordplay? What matters are the skills involved. How can it withstand the instability of the lower half of the body? Do you want to learn it? What do you think? Yuezhou’s Liu family’s Downpour Swordplay has nine moves in total. For every move,
I’ll charge you ten taels. What do you think? Fine, forget it then. Later on, when Tang Xiao looks for your Yulan again, you can deal with it yourself. Jin. Jin. I’ll go back and write down a copy of the essentials of swordplay now. Will that do? Pack up. We’ll leave in two hours.
Aren’t we going back to Nandu tomorrow? There are Cao Sect’s spies everywhere. If we act according to schedule, won’t that fulfil their wishes? We’ve to be unpredictable so we can catch our enemy by surprise. Miss Shu is doing the right thing. Bloodshed will be inevitable on our way back.
You must follow the arrangements made by Jin and me. You’ve no choice, just pack your wet laundry. It’ll smell sour however you pack it. Don’t insult the sweetness of my beloved clothing. Are you having a stomachache? [Nandu Chamber of Commerce]
[The market price of raw silk is 5 taels and 1 coin. The market price of the deed is 4 taels and 2 coins.] The deed costs 4 taels and 2 coins. It’s 9 coins higher than yesterday’s price. The price of raw silk has reduced by 2 coins.
In that case, the deed’s price actually increased by 1 tael and 1 coin. Miss, what are you calculating? I’m calculating the probability of the Su family’s success. If the deed follows the loss ratio of raw silk, deducting one catty by two taels of silver per catty… 40,000 taels?
Then wouldn’t 80,000 taels be 360,000 taels of gold? If I had lost my appetite for days like you, I wouldn’t have the energy to think about these. Right now, the fall in the price of raw silk is obvious. The upward trend of the price of the deed… There are five days left.
Miss Ke. Miss Ke. Chairman Su wants to invite you in. I heard you are proficient in business. So, tell me how much this deed for 80,000 catties of raw silk can lower the price of Nandu’s silk by. Right now, compared to the deed, actual goods are more reassuring to the merchants.
So I guess the market price of raw silk will drop. It could drop down to 4 taels of silver per catty. I estimate a drop of at most 4 taels and 5 coins. Chairman Su, have you hedged your bets? Hedged my bets? Right now, the deed’s price is on a rapid upward trend.
I’m guessing Chairman Su is also involved. With the solid foundation of the Su family, if you resell secretly, it won’t be difficult to earn over 100,000. If raw silk can’t enter the city and you need to make compensations, they will be meager. Chairman Su is Nandu Chamber of Commerce’s supervisor.
The deeds are issued by the Chamber of Commerce. How could the Su family get involved in embezzlement by contributing to the rise of the deed’s price? I’ve overstepped my bounds. I shouldn’t have speculated without authorization. What Mr. Qian said is true. Even if I want to do it,
It’s not the right thing to do. Miss Ke is so familiar with business. I’m really surprised. I’m flattered, Chairman Su. My knowledge is shallow. All right, enough about this. Miss Ke, dare I ask what Mr. Yun has been planning recently? He’s not been in Liansheng House lately. Where did he go?
I don’t know either. It’s fine. Then I’ll have to trouble you to inform me when Mr. Yun returns. Chairman Su. This time, you’re placing all your bets on this group of traveling merchants. [Three days later] Brother, have some water. Okay. Take care of him. Dear armed escorts, how are your men?
Most of my men have minor injuries. One is seriously injured. It’s about the same for me. Several of my men are killed. The rest have minor injuries. Dear armed escorts, the Su family will make arrangements for your men and their families. You’ve risked your lives helping me. I will never forget this.
The situation is clear now. You might as well tell us your identities and who the mastermind is. Then, we might spare your lives. You’re not getting anything out of them like that. Watch and learn. Which one do you think will give in first? I think so too.
Do you want to tell me now or after I beat you up? I’ll tell you now. Our villages run errands for those who pay us. He… He belongs to Qi Tianfeng’s Cao Sect! He does! Do you think you’re clean? How many villages are there and how many people do you have?
Fifteen villages, about 400 people, and dozens from Cao Sect. He’s bluffing. If they had 400 people, why didn’t they come together in full force? Why did they just send a few men? It’s not unusual. They’re just testing the waters. Miss Shu. It’s unchivalrous to kill those in captive.
If you fall into his hands, do you think he’ll let you go? Let’s keep him as a witness and bring him back to the government office. You can even use him to convict Qi Tianfeng. Fine. We can also use him as a hostage. For now, lock him up and watch him closely.
Let’s go. No. Let me go. Let me go. Got it? There’s only one way to treat these people. With ruthlessness. Since we’re like family, the tuition fee is half-price. Move along. Put down the knife! Put down the knife! Master Qi, I, Wu Laosan, will be your brother in my next life!
Is this the martial world you’ve been dying to explore? Let’s go. It seems like only ashes are left, but they’re actually marking another beginning. Chief Armed Escort Wang, you’re back. Mr. Jin. We’re back from exploring the route. How’s the situation? Look. The journey tomorrow will be treacherous. Look here, and here.
These terrains make it easy for ambush. There are at least seven or eight routes like this. But we don’t have enough men to break through the defense. Let me have a look. Be alert! He has already used several methods to deceive us thrice, in order to make us restless.
What kind of place is this? It’s a deserted relay house. It’s two hours away from here. Are the exterior walls sturdy? You’ll have to make do with it. Right now, we’re under siege. They’re trying to exhaust us completely before launching the main offense.
There’s no tenable defense position we can take in this wilderness. There’s not a moment when we can be at rest. At this rate, their wishes will really come true. Even if we hide in the relay station, we’re not much stronger. Miss Shu. There’s only 15 days left on the deed.
We don’t have much time left. Don’t worry. We’ll make it. Everyone, let’s stay up for another night. We’ll set off for the relay house at dawn. Anyway, let’s rest and reconsolidate first. I’ll make further arrangements later. Okay. Mr. Yun. Mr. Kang. Any news? You’ve been asking about the news every day.
What are you worried about? I just find it strange. Even if something happened to Su’s group of traveling merchants, someone would still escape and return. How could there be no news? You’re holding the fishing rod yet worrying about the bait’s safety. We’ll know the outcome very soon. Please wait a little longer.
[Cao Sect] Your Master. I just received a pigeon post. Su’s group of traveling merchants is hiding in that relay station now. [Su’s group of traveling merchants is hiding in that relay station now.] Your Master. I think we’ll win this time. It’s too early to be sure of success.
Brothers, thank you for braving through dangerous times with us. Every one will get an additional two seasons of salary. Those who made contributions will get additional rewards. In three days, the deed will expire. Then, we’ll secure our position as the leader of Nandu. By then, we will no longer be the Cao Sect
That has to walk on eggshells around others. [Shunyuan Relay Station] Be careful. Give me a hand. Come on. Put it here. Be careful. Here. Time is tight, and the bandits are strong. If we just continue to deplete our resources, we’ll only stay at a disadvantage. So instead of just defending,
Why don’t we lure the snake out of hiding by initiating a battle? Initiate a battle? There are more than 400 of them. How many do we have? And half of us are servants. Yes. Once the battle begins, one of us has to fight against four or five of them.
How can we withstand that? Right. Don’t rush. Let Shu finish. If we’re outnumbered, why don’t we separate them into groups and break through them one by one? That’s exactly what I have in mind. The first step is to trick them with a fake-out [Fake-out]
By exchanging the clothing of half of the servants with half of the armed escorts’. Then, we split our group into two. It’ll seem like we split up accordingly, but in actuality, one group is full of servants while the other group is full of armed escorts.
In this case, since our two groups will take separate routes, our opponents will also have to split up to chase us. Chief Armed Escort Zheng. Yes. You’ll be in charge of the servants’ group. Once attacked, abandon the freight wagon immediately, disperse, and run away. Understood. The rest of us
Will have to face a tough battle. Even though it’s not one against four, it’s still one against two. We must finish the battle quickly before the other group of bandits return and join forces against us. Since we’ve been dispatched, we’ll fight with our lives. Fight with our lives without a second thought.
This is a good strategy. Be swift and fierce. Like a strong gust of wind passing through the hills, without a single blade of grass untouched. Mr. Su, you’ll stay at the relay station. Why? Let me say it again. Your main contribution is protecting the raw silk. You must not go anywhere
And leave the raw silk unattended. [Shunyuan Relay Station] Miss Shu. Yes? Sure, leave me alone here. But what if those bandits break in? -You’re so afraid of death and you want to roam the martial world? -Alone, how can I… I’m not afraid of death. I’m afraid I can’t hold onto the raw silk.
How about this? I’ll go with you. Adding a person will raise our chances of winning. Yun Xiang was right about you. Su Mingyu. Don’t think that I left you here because I think you’re useless. This place is actually very dangerous. At present, you’re being entrusted with a great responsibility.
But if they break in, what should I do? Don’t be afraid. We’ll use the “Empty City Ruse”. When we leave, we’ll open up all the main gates of the relay house. Just stay inside and don’t come out. But if bandits break in, just remember one rule.
To take them all down, take their leader down first. It’s been so long and there’s no movement at all. Seems like the “Empty City Ruse” was successful. Right now, yes. But we can’t be careless. How about this? Let’s obtain local materials first and make arrangements in advance. Okay, I’ll listen to you. Go.
This is superior Nverhong wine from Dingfu Restaurant. Let’s share it. We could be dead any moment. It’d be a waste to keep it. Jin. Where is Miss Shu from? Why do you ask? I’ve seen many famous young people, but this is my first time seeing a strategist like her.
She began roaming the martial world at a young age. If she wasn’t ruthless, she wouldn’t have survived until now. But I’ve also just found out about her knowledge on military tactics. No wonder. Amazing. In time, she’ll surely become famous in the martial world. Everyone, watch out! Mr. Su! Mr. Su!
Chief Armed Escort Zheng. Where are the others? As instructed, upon attack, we abandoned the freight wagon and ran away. But those bandits didn’t go back to help the other group. They came after us instead. I was afraid all the bandits would be led here, so I asked everyone to disperse.
How many people were after you? More than 20. Finally, it’s time. Close the gates and trap them in. Don’t let anyone escape. Drag him here! Get up! Please don’t kill me. Don’t kill me. How are you an armed escort when you’re so afraid of death? Exactly! Which Armed Escort Agency are you from?
You’re not an armed escort, right? I’m not. I’m just a servant. A servant? Tell me! Where is the raw silk? They’re all at the relay station. Are you Su Mingyu, the Young Master of the Su family? Interesting. It’s the first time I’ve seen a small group trapping in a larger group of opponents.
Let’s find out who’s really being trapped in today. Brave warrior, may I have your name? What are you up to? I’ve robbed countless wealthy people. No one has ever asked for my name. According to the martial world’s rules, no matter if we’re enemies or friends, we should know each other’s names.
You must have watched too many dramas. Young Master Su, listen. We came all the way here just for raw silk, not to hold you hostage. It’s out of the question if you want our raw silk. Surrender now and your lives might be spared. Keep the raw silk and hostage safe,
And kill off the rest! He’s even a martial artist. The weirder the weapon, the faster he dies. You’re as blind as a bat! Do you want to die? Get them to stop if you want to live. Mr. Su. Come with me quickly. Mr. Su! Mr. Su! I’m not going anywhere!
Steward Qian repeatedly asked for me to protect your life even at the expense of the raw silk. Raw silk is the lifeblood of our family! Dear ancestors, it was my incompetence that put the Su family and Mingyu’s life in danger. May the ancestors bless me
So I can draw an auspicious divination stick for our Su family. The rain has come and gone, and there’s still hopes to continue transportation. The woman is fierce. The full moon is near, yet the gentleman continues on. It’s dangerous. This is an ominous divination. If you persist in your opinions,
I’m afraid there’ll be a calamity. If you want peace, you must call for a ceasefire. Zhou. Zhou! Have you seen Shu? No. Shu Yanan! Shu Yanan! Shu Yanan! Shu Yanan! “Ten Taels of Gold”! I thought you were dead. I was thinking about how
Yun Xiang would have to deduct my pay when we go back. Let’s go now. Where are we going? Haven’t we killed them all? It’s been several hours but not one bandit has come as reinforcement. I’m worried that they went directly to the relay house. Su Mingyu. Guard the walls! Yes.
Save whoever you can quickly. Yes. Yes. It’s us. Miss Shu, you’re finally here. We followed the tail end when we retreated. Two groups of bandits surged in, front and back. Where is Su Mingyu? On the second floor. On the second floor. Su Mingyu? Su Mingyu! It’s me! He’s killing on autopilot now.
Are you clear-headed now? Have you regained your senses? You’ve sort of had your first kill this time. Have you counted? How many did you kill? The flesh was peeled open. It felt like the sword came to my hand. Stabbed in until the bones were reached. It felt like stabbing hard rocks.
The blood is hot when it sprays on your face. I didn’t like it. Not at all. This is normal. You’ll be fine after you’ve regained your senses. Take a good rest for a while. Leave everything to us. They’re here again! Withstand the pressure! Withstand the pressure! Go! Go!
We can’t withstand the pressure like this! Hang in there for a while more! Those who can move, get up! We must protect the courtyard wall. Yes. Withstand the pressure! The carriage is here! Have you figured it out? You’re right. This is the real martial world. From now on, you are my brother.
The real martial world is full of bloodshed. You have to kill to live. Later, when we fight, don’t show any mercy. Hang in there! Withstand the pressure! The lifeblood of my family!
