My Waste Husband

Chapter 596

Henry was speechless when he heard Wade's answer. He thought Wade would say some high ranking because he showed his disdain for the 15th place of the Tang clan. But his clan was ranked thirty-ninth?

Wade understood Henry's expression and waved his hand indifferently. "Boss, I don't care about the ranking. My father doesn't care about it. He didn't say anything to me. Even the clan didn't say anything when I went to them after the incident on the island last time."

Henry thought of Wade's father's character and identity. He shook his head and said, "Okay, how much do you know about the clans?"

Wade thought for a moment and replied, "Not much. I only know some basic information. Now there are fifteen top clans in total. The Tang clan ranks the last and the Li Family of Longxi is the strongest. But my father didn't say how strong they were."

"What about the Zhao clan from Meng Province?" Henry asked again.

"Zhao clan? It seems to be ranked thirteenth, a little higher than that Tang clan. But I don't know what's going on. You know, the number of people in my clan is too small, and we don't pay much attention to it. Otherwise, with my father's strength, it would be impossible to rank only 39th." Wade closed the door of the helicopter and began to take off.

Henry understood that Wade didn't know anything. Wade just listened to his father's words. If Henry wanted to make it clear, he had to rely on himself.

Meng Province was very large. It would take less than an hour to get to the closest place from Yinzhou by car. But it would take several hours by helicopter to arrive at the furthest place.

As for the location of the Zhao clan, Henry had already asked Lam's stepmother about it and went straight there.

The temperature in Meng Province was slightly higher than that in Yinzhou. At five o'clock in the morning, Henry and Wade arrived at their destination. They didn't go directly to Zhao's County but landed about one hundred kilometres away from there.

There was a huge helipad, and a man had been waiting. It was a man in his thirties, wearing a suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looked very sophisticated.

The moment Henry and Wade got off the plane, the middle-aged man knelt on one knee and put his palms together in front of his chest. "I'm Alfred. Nice to meet you, my lord."

Henry and Wade both stopped laughing and showed a serious look when they got off the plane. Henry nodded to the middle-aged man named Alfred and asked, "How many people are here?"

Kneeling on one knee, Alfred lowered his head and answered, "My king, we've got 1764 people. All are ready. We can set off at any time."

Henry walked forward without stopping. He asked while walking, "What's going on over there in Zhao County?"

Wade followed behind Henry and walked past Alfred.

When Henry and Wade were three metres away, Alfred stood up and followed Henry. He lowered his head and said, "According to the information collected over the past few months, Zhao County has a population of 73862 people in total. Ten percent of the total population is surnamed Zhao. All the well-known enterprises in the county are under the control of the family. One of them, the education enterprise which starts from a kindergarten all the way to a high-high school, is fully

owned by the Zhao family. The students in the institution are all surnamed Zhao. However, the chief of the Zhao clan rarely shows up."

"They live in groups and don't have contact with the outside world. There is no doubt that they are a clan." Henry was sure in his heart.

Clans were mysterious, but it was not completely impossible to get in touch with them. The world was just so big, and China was so big. All the places where people could live were developed. It was not easy to be completely isolated from the world. How many people in China could live in the same place as the Tang clan. Besides, how many people could really stay away from the outside world like the Tang clan? Not everyone could bear the sorrow and loneliness in their hearts.

"Arrange a car and come with me." Henry ordered.

"Understood," Alfred replied respectfully.

At half past six in the morning, the sky was brighter than in Yinzhou. An ordinary domestic car slowly drove into Zhao County.

On the surface, this county looked no different from Luohe city. People worked normally every day, and vendors shouted on the pavements. Ordinary people would not have thought that there was a powerful clan hiding in this county.

Henry and Wade sat in the back seat of the car, looking around the county, trying to spot something different. The driver was Alfred, who greeted them at the helipad. He was the person from Radiant Island who was in charge of this place and had an office here.

The people in charge of each office had unparalleled strength. They were good in many fields, such as assassination, fighting, attacking, defence, and so on. Each of them was the best of the best.

After retirement, they could go to Radiant Island, which was their dream, and live in that holy land. Their juniors would be blessed by them and blessed by the island.

"Boss, there must be something wrong with these buildings." Wade frowned slightly. After observing for a while, he felt a little weird that he couldn't say what was weird exactly.

"Alfred, are all the construction companies in this county owned by Zhao?" Henry didn't answer Wade's question but asked the driver.

"Yes." Alfred nodded. "All the high-level officials in the county, from the officials to the civilians, are surnamed Zhao." This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"That makes sense." Henry nodded with a smile.

"Boss, what do you mean by that?" Wade asked with a puzzled look.

"The plan." Henry stretched out his hand and pointed to a building outside the window. "Stop here. Let's go up and have a look."

The building Henry was referring to was a landmark of the city, and was one of the top three highest buildings in the whole county.

Alfred parked the car and the three of them walked into the building together. When they came to the top of the building, they could overlook the entire Zhao County.

Henry looked around and said, "I was forced to read something about the Eight trigrams and Nine diagrams. When I first entered the city, I felt a little strange. The outermost buildings in the county were in the same pattern, making the outer edge of the county. The streets were not like in most cities. They were organized in rings. In each ring, there were several connection places."

Wade stood by Henry's side, overlooking the whole county. From the sky, this Zhao Family County was completely the same as the Eight trigrams! The Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Zhong, Feng, Li, Kun, Dui diagrams were all set up in different areas!

It was so weird to build a whole county into the shape of the Eight trigrams. Wade took a deep breath and asked, "Boss, what do you think the Zhao clan meant by doing this?"

"I don't know, these forces that have been passed down since ancient times are all full of nonsense. Isn't your father just like that? Let's take a look first." Henry secretly remembered the layout of the county.
