Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 646: Sending Someone Away
"Of course I know, I'm just a little surprised, I didn't say I didn't want to tell. My mother's name was Ao Xuanhe." Ao Gong said.

"Oh." Tie Hongyan glanced at the words on the portrait, knew roughly what was written on it, and then put the portrait away.

You Xiangming said: "We believe that you will not tell anyone about today's painting. No one would cause trouble for themselves, right?"

"Of course." said Ao Gong.

Tie Hongyan asked about the blankets at this time: "I want to take a look at the blankets you sell now. Is it convenient?"

"It's convenient. Come with me now and take a look around." Ao Gong replied.

Tie Hongyan and You Xiangming followed Ao Gong to the place where the blankets were stored. She looked through several blankets one by one and found that they were all embroidered with words. She pointed to the words on one of the blankets and asked, "Is this the number?"

"Yes." said Ao Gong.

"Every time you sell a blanket, do you record the day it was sold?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"You know all this!" Ao Gong was a little surprised.

"I'm just guessing." Tie Hongyan continued, "I also guess that you may have left more detailed records, such as who it was sold to." Tie Hongyan originally only knew that some businessmen would do this, and was not sure whether Ao Gong would also use this method. However, after she heard that Ao Gong would report the sale of blankets to the people who threatened him to sell blankets, she felt that this possibility was very high.

"It seems that the distinguished guest knows everything. I have recorded them all." said Ao Gong.

"To whom was blanket numbered ninety-three sold?" Tie Hongyan asked tentatively.

"Please wait a moment, dear guest. I'll go get the record book." After saying that, Ao Gong walked to the cabinet and took out a book. He turned to the page with the blanket numbered 93, took a look, and found that the blanket was the one bought by Tie Hongyan's men. He was a little surprised why she asked that, but he didn't think much about it, and just said, "93? 93 is the one bought by your people." Tie Hongyan and You Xiangming looked at each other and nodded.

Tie Hongyan said to Ao Gong, "What about the one with number 46?"

Ao Gong flipped through the pages again and answered, "Forty-six. The man who threatened me to sell the blanket sent someone to take it away."

"It was the person who threatened you to sell the blanket who sent someone to take it away?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Yes, the person he sent that day told me that he needed two blankets to give to someone, so I took the two blankets numbered 46 and 47 and gave them to the person he sent." said Ao Gong.

"Do you know who he is going to give it to?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"I really don't know about this. I didn't dare to ask too much. He sent someone to ask me for it, so I could only give it to him honestly. If the person he sent hadn't told me that he was going to give it to someone and asked me to wrap it better, I wouldn't even know what he was going to do with the blanket." Ao Gong replied.

Tie Hongyan thought about other things and asked, "Do you have a map to the Dark Valley?"

"Yes, there are quite a few. But... it's better for you not to go there." said Ao Gong.

Tie Hongyan said: "Give us a map."

Ao Gong said: "I can give it to you, but let's make it clear. I'm just giving you the map, not encouraging you to go there. If something happens to you there, I... I won't be responsible! Didn't I advise you not to go?"
