The Mightiest Little Peasant

When Tang Hao returned to the mansion, he immediately went to the bedroom to check.

Sis Xiangyi was sleeping soundly.

Tang Hao smiled gently when he saw the calm, peaceful sleeping face. He felt like he was at home.

He returned to the living room and continued where he left off.

Tang Hao was crafting jade talismans when Grandmaster Chacha came. Those were not offensive talismans like before, but instead defensive talismans.

He had the idea of crafting defensive talismans when Ma Fangfang got into trouble. He wanted to protect the people he cared for.

Eleven of the twelve blood jade beads he owned were defensive Artifacts. He gave one to Sis Xiangyi, and now he only had ten left. He could give them to ten other people.

He had more than ten people that he cared for.

He had thought of producing similar Artifacts, but the process of making one was incredibly difficult. It was almost impossible to gather all the ingredients, and it was very risky to craft them. Crafting jade talismans was a more convenient thing to do.

A defensive jade talisman was like a one-time use Artifact. It can protect its bearer automatically. If one carried multiple talismans, the effect would be the same as an Artifact.

With the jade talismans, there was no need to constantly worry about those people he cared for.

Tang Hao stilled his heart and continued carving runes on the jade pieces.

A pile of jade talismans formed next to him. At sunrise, he had already crafted thirty-something pieces.

“If I give one piece to each person, that should be enough. I should make more in the future,” Tang Hao mumbled to himself.

After breakfast, Tang Hao gave a call to Liu Dajun and the others and asked them to meet at Sunshine Plaza at nine o’clock.

Then, he rode on his little three-wheeled motorcycle and went to Dragonrock Village.

He first went to his maternal grandparents’ house to deliver them a jade talisman each, then reminded them that they should carry it with them always.

After tending to his secret plantation, Tang Hao went to Sunshine Plaza and gave Liu Dajun and the others one jade talisman each.

“What’s this, Lil Tang?” President Li took the jade talisman and scrutinized it. He had never seen anything like that before.

“That’s good stuff, Big Bro Li. You’ll need to remember to carry it with you at all times. It can save your life at crucial times,” Tang Hao said.

“It can save my life?” President Li was a little suspicious.

Liu Dajun’s eyes sparkled. He excitedly looked at the jade talisman in his hand.

He knew that Tang Hao possessed supernatural powers. If he said that the talisman could save his life, he must be telling the truth!

“This is good stuff!” Liu Dajun said excitedly, then he turned to speak to President Li. “Hey, Ol’ Li, if you don’t want that, you can give it to me!”

“Pah!” President Li’s mouth broke into a grin. “Don’t you already have one? Don’t have any ideas of mine! Whatever Lil Tang gives must be good stuff.”

He grasped the talisman tightly in case Liu Dajun wanted to snatch it.

“Heheh! Hey, Lil Tang, do you have any more of this stuff? Give me a few more pieces, I’ll pay you for them. A hundred thousand yuan each- no, a million yuan each!” Liu Dajun said to Tang Hao.

President Li, President Huang, and the others were shocked.

They knew that whatever Tang Hao gave them must be something amazing, but they were still shocked by Liu Dajun’s offer of a million yuan.

‘Can this thing actually save my life?’ Everyone was thinking of the same thing.

All of them were wealthy people. Without any care for money, the most precious thing to them would be their lives. A million yuan to save one’s life was too cheap.

“Are you sure this can save my life, Lil Tang? Give me a few more pieces too!”

“Me too, Lil Tang! Don’t forget about your Big Bro Huang!”

They jostled among each other excitedly to be the first one in line.

“Hey, what are you all doing? Don’t fight with me! I’m the one who asked first! You all can step aside,” Liu Dajun said angrily.

“Ahem!” Tang Hao coughed and waved for attention.

“Well… You don’t have to fight each other. I don’t have any extra jade talismans with me now, but I will have more of them soon. You don’t have to worry,” Tang Hao said.

“Yes, there’s no rush! No rush at all!” President Li and the rest said hurriedly.

‘This is good stuff!’ The bosses’ eyes were sparkling as they had a newfound opinion on the jade talismans. They carefully kept it close to themselves.

“Oh, right! Lil Tang, I’ve heard that someone was looking for trouble yesterday. It’s that Second Young Master Luo,” President Li said during their conversation.

“Yes, that happened, but it’s settled now. No need to worry,” Tang Hao said with a smile.

“That Second Young Master Luo is a difficult person to deal with. I’ve heard of him when I used to live in Provincial City,” Liu Dajun said.

“Lil Tang, remember to tell me if anything happens to you. Luo Enterprises is big, but I know some people who can handle them. It won’t be that easy if they want to bring down our company.”

“Got it, Big Bro Liu!”

They chatted for a while more before Tang Hao went downstairs.

Tang Hao saw Ma Fangfang in the foyer.

Ma Fangfang was chatting happily with a few other sales clerks. Her smile was bright and charming, seemingly unperturbed by the earlier incident.

She was in her work uniform, the hip skirt and black pantyhose accentuated the curves of her body. The light make-up on her face made her look beautiful and classy.

Ma Fangfang was surprised when she saw Tang Hao.

The other sales clerks looked at her understandingly and scattered.

“Tang Hao!” Ma Fangfang called him softly. Her cheeks blushed bright red.

Tang Hao walked over and placed a blood jade bead into her hands.

“This… You should take this! Remember to wear it with you always. Don’t take it off ever. It can protect you!” Tang Hao said softly.

Ma Fangfang was a little surprised when she saw the bead in her palm.

“Alright, I’ll be leaving!” Tang Hao smiled at her, then headed toward the exit.

He bore complicated emotions toward Ma Fangfang. He could not say that he liked her, but he did not wish to see any harm come to her. That was why he gave her a blood jade bead.

Back in his company, Tang Hao met Han Yutong in her office.

Han Yutong’s brows were locked tight. She was worried about something.

“Have you heard it, President Tang? Something weird happened at the factory last night. All the security guards mysteriously passed out, and there was gasoline poured all over the place. Fortunately, nothing bad happened.

“Luo Feng must be behind this. He’s trying to bring our company down.”

Tang Hao sat down and said, “Don’t worry, Assistant Han. I think the Luo family will be busy with their internal affairs.”

Han Yutong was surprised and looked at Tang Hao doubtfully.

“You have to be careful though,” Tang Hao said, “I’m afraid that the Luo family will target you. That’s why I’ve prepared this for you.”

He retrieved a blood jade bead and handed it to her.

“Remember, always wear this, and never take it off,” Tang Hao reminded her.

The Luo family must be investigating what happened to Luo Feng. They would relate his mishap to yesterday’s incident. That was why he gave her a blood jade bead.

He would not have to be that worried about her.

“This is…?” Han Yutong wondered.

“It’s an amazing thing! You’ll just have to wear it!” Tang Hao smiled at her.

After work, Tang Hao went to First High and gave Yan’er a blood jade bead. Then, Tang Hao finally was at ease.
