For split moments, Kelly could not decide if he should be angry or laughing. He was left amused by the words that he just heard.

Someone was ordering President Hart to come forward and kneel before he. He walked forward towards him ready to launch at him like a bulldog.

"You give orders to someone way bigger than you? Keep saying it until it appears in your dream!" He glared.

If father was one of the wealthiest men in the city but when his father went to see Mr. Hart, the man didn't even spare his father a single glance.

He looked at Clinton with even more disdain that was laced all over his face. He wanted to crush me already and send him back to the world that he came out from.

But there was no need to do that. The young man was going to be his bait to get the little stunning lady in his hands tonight and after that, he was going to dispose of the fool that had dared to speak to him in such a manner.

"And if you think that I am going to fall for that stunt that you just pulled. You must be a talented clown." 

With his hands tapping with impatience, he beckoned on his guards to cripple Clinton already.

Their feet paced towards him with smirks on their faces already. Seeing that she had been free, Lisa quickly stepped forward.

"Please forgive him. He never meant anything of what he just said. He is someone very close to us. I don't even think that he is thinking straight at this instant." She pleaded with tears already dripping down from her eyes at the moment.

As he felt her warm body, Clinton could already feel himself rumbling with pain. He had vowed that he was going to protect these people but it turned out that he had failed.

His heart was torn into shreds. "I 'm going to make sure that you pay dearly so that the people that I love suffer so much." He vowed in whispers, the howling breeze straining away his words.

"I will do what you have said." She was still shivering.

"Oh! So you are going to agree to my terms now after going through all of these?" He glared.

The anger that was raging through every single part of Clinton's body knew no bounds at the moment.

"Don't say that Lisa." But she had already made up and would not listen. She would rather go against her will than allow anyone to suffer because of her.

"You fool. Do you know who he is? He is the owner of this place. He can find wherever you go. Do you think that I am going to allow you to get into danger because of us?" She glared at Clinton with a look of empathy.

She knew that it was not his fault and she felt sad after she had said those hard words but that was the least that she could do to help him.

Clinton let out a low sigh as he looked at Kelly once again. Why should someone that wasn't even worthy to lick the dust off from his shoes be able to destroy his life..

"That's a good girl. Come to Daddy." Kelly smiled as Lisa walked off towards him.

Clinton could not stand it anymore. He brushed off from where was standing. Soon he was right before Kelly and a slap shot right from him to his face.

Everyone was stunned by this sudden outburst and they thought that this person had certainly gone out of his mind.

The five fingers that were laced on Kelly's face at the moment were bloody as Lisa stared at it. She could not help it but shivered.

"What has Clinton done?" She yelled.

How could he do such a thing because of them? Does he want to die? Tears flooded down from her eyes no matter how hard she tried to restrain them and she sniffed.

"You are very stupid Clinton to think that you would want to help us to your own detriment. Sometimes. I wonder what your brain is made of." 

"Rocks." Clinton replied with a now calm smile.

He felt so happy after he did what he had just done.

"Another word of that and I am going to make sure that a slap isn't what he was going to receive." He added more salt to Kelly's wound.

If there was anything that he hated most in all his life it was anyone giving him a slap across the face.

It made him so weak before this set of people and it was more than enough to get him very angry.

"Don't cripple him anymore. I want you to kill him." He glared at his guards with raging anger.

After what they had witnessed, they were more than glad to do what they had already been told to wait for the rising fury in their faces.

As they were able to slap him straight across the face, a loud noise was heard that made them put a halt to what they were doing at the moment.

Some of them already brought out weapons from their pockets. Lisa folded herself in one direction while she cried and as for the crowd, they saw Clinton as someone that was as good as dead already.

"I am sure that he is someone that had a bright future." An old lady that was also a single mother cried out of pity for him.

"Stop." The words raced through the ears of everyone present.

It seemed to have a strange effect that made you want to obey the words that this person was saying.

Their faces all turned around in that direction and most of the people that knew who this middle-aged man was had their jaws far apart with shock.

"It can't be. Mr. Hart! But what would he be doing in such a filthy area when there are a whole lot of large areas that he could always inspect?" Kelly thought aloud to himself.

He didn't even think for once that someone had already told him that he was going to call Mr. Hart over.

There was certainly no one that he could even think about the fact that Clinton who was looking more like a homeless dog could pull so many strings on Mr. Harts.

They all bowed in an instant. Even though he had not gotten over to where they were standing.

Everyone did the same even though one of them didn't know who this person was. His aura was powerful and with just a word of his mouth, they were sure that if he wanted them dead, they would certainly be. Coupled with the fact that someone as powerful as Mr. Swindon was already bowing at him at the moment.

He wore a deadly frown on his face. 

"Slap!" A loud slap was heard all over the place. Even though Kelly's face was aching at the moment, he didn't dare to look this man in the eyes.

'What.. what did I do?' Was the only thoughts that clouded his mind.

"You fool! What have you done? How could you get me into this much trouble after everything that I have done for you and your family?" He fired.

"I'm very sorry Mr. Hart. Please forgive me." Kelly said, still bowing.

Even though he didn't understand what exactly was going on, he still didn't dare to argue but went ahead to argue nor even look into his eyes.

Mr. Hart looked over to where Clinton was standing and his old Demeanor was replaced with fear as he shivered even more than the dying boy who was lying on the floor at the moment.

Their eyes interlocked. He could see that Clinton was highly displeased, unlike everything that he had heard about the Young master.

If Ping was to hear about anything that had happened here. Death would be the best escape room for him out of the world.

Not knowing how he was going to get through this at the moment, his feet crashed to the floor with tears pleading down his wrinkled face.

Everyone was stunned for quite a while. It seemed like it was more like a dream but it was not. At that moment, Mr. Hart was kneeling before someone.

They could not all resist the urge to know who this powerful person that he was bowing his head before was going to be. They raised their heads and the sight that lay before Kelly made his heart freeze almost in an instant.

"The all-powerful Mr. Hart was kneeling before someone like Clinton?”

    “Your Highness, this is the tube used for blowing glass.”While the materials were being heated, Chen Qi handed Xiao Ming a ceramic tube.Once the glass liquid was formed, if one wanted to shape the glass, blowing would be required.In fact, this was the most critical part of glass production. Because the temperature of the glass liquid was so high, and Xiao Ming didn’t have heat-resistant alloy tubes, he had to use a clay-fired ceramic tube. After all, he couldn’t even produce a seamless steel tube at this stage.On either side of the regenerator, craftsmen took turns operating the bellows, blowing the heat from the coal in the regenerator into the furnace. After waiting for an hour, Xiao Ming instructed the craftsmen to open the furnace lid.Instantly, a wave of heat surged out of the furnace, causing the craftsman to jump back in alarm. Once he regained his composure, he slowly approached the furnace and saw the red, molten liquid inside.He said, “Your Highness, the materials insi

    Your Highness… this commoner is willing!”Fan Zeng was visibly excited. He had lived an unremarkable life and never imagined that such an opportunity would come to him in his later years. If he didn’t seize this chance now, when would he ever get another?“Good. The newspaper office in Bowen Academy will be completed by the end of the month. Although it will be somewhat rudimentary, it will be ready for use by then. You can start selecting the staff for the newspaper office now. Here is a document outlining the structure of the newspaper office. Take it back and review it.”After saying this, Xiao Ming instructed Luluo to fetch a manuscript from his chambers. This document was Xiao Ming’s blueprint for the newspaper office, based on modern newspaper organizations but adapted to the realities of the Great Yu Empire.Once the newspaper office was established, the newspaper delivery boys would no longer exist. Instead, they would be renamed “reporters.” However, these reporters would not

    At the command headquarters, Xiao Ming showed Pang Yukun the information he had received the previous night. The issue of the village heads also made Pang Yukun frown.There were many villages within the six prefectures, and the number of village heads was equally large. While not every village head was connected to the powerful families, the previous night’s events suggested that at least thirty percent of them were.“Your Highness, supporting a new village head is one solution, but what if the two village heads collude? Wouldn’t that make things worse?” Pang Yukun expressed his concern.Xiao Ming had also been pondering this issue, which was why he had come to discuss it with Pang Yukun in the morning. He said, “That’s why I want to establish an organization similar to the government office in each village. This organization will be called the ‘commune,’ and the production teams will be under its jurisdiction. The commune, in turn, will be managed by the county magistrate. This will

    CHAPTER EIGHTY-SEVENPing’s voice was very low, but it was enough to convince Clinton who was instantly reminded of what was at hand.He took a deep breath, his gaze switching back to the lady.He said nothing at first, but the old man was able to see through his worrisome stare.“Don’t worry, Young Master. She will be well protected. We also have stewards who will make sure that she gets whatever she desires.” He assured, causing Clinton to nod in satisfaction.“Take care of yourself, Sharon.” He said as soon as he returned his gaze to the lady, holding onto his smile.Shifting his gaze to Kyrian, he gave him a warning with his eyes, causing him to look away at once.“Let’s go.” Clinton walked away, and Ping wasted no time in following him at once.Sarah staggered through her first two steps because she was in a hurry to catch up with them, and before long they were already inside the two cars they left.Clinton felt the uneasiness that gripped him, and because it was too hard for hi

    CHAPTER EIGHTY-SIXKyrian wished that he didn’t have to obey Clinton, but there was no other option for him.He nodded reluctantly, and swallowing his pride, he adjusted the outfit he was holding, inching closer to Clinton.While Lailah watched him, she prayed silently that it was not going to be the last day she was going to be employed, and the only reason why she was silent was that she knew it was futile to speak.“All done.” Kyrian nodded as soon as he was done, staring at Clinton just to be sure that he had done well.Clinton looked at himself in the mirror that one of the guards had placed in front of him, and for the first time, he looked like a proper gentleman.He couldn’t hide his smile even if he wanted to, his eyes looking particularly at the jacket that seemed like it had been tailored particularly for him, using his measurements.He chuckled softly, turning to Kyrian who sighed for the umpteenth time, but the moment Clinton switched into a glare, he was forced to get ri
