Chapter 137 The richest man

"Young Master!" Du Fuchong received a message from Lin Xiqi and rushed to the county government.

"There should be specific news, right? There should be no problem with the Tianyan Tower, right?" Lin Xiqi asked.

In the past two days, Lin Xiqi asked Du Fuchong to come to Tianyan Tower to buy some news about Wang Dong.

After all, with their current abilities, they cannot know more inside information.

"I have it." Du Fuchong nodded.

So he told the news about Wang Dong that he got from Tianyan Tower.

After hearing this, Lin Xiqi asked, "That's how Wang Dong is indeed a righteous person."

"Yes, Wang Dong was very capable when he was a royal spy. Otherwise, he would not have become a Qianhu in his late thirty years old without any background. Unfortunately, it was because he didn't know how to please Shangguan and offend the people above the Qianhu, and he could not be promoted. It was also because he was reliable in his work, and the people above him turned a blind eye to him. In general, there were no benefits and if there were any difficulties, he would let him do it. Basically, he did not disappoint his work." Du Fuchong said.

"I wonder how much the Tianyan Tower price is for these news?" Lin Xiqi nodded and asked.

"100,000 taels." Du Fuchong said.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, it's really easy to make money from Tianyan Tower." Lin Xiqi sighed, "Any news can be sold at such a high price."

"There is no way, who said that you have something to ask for?" Du Fuchong shook his head and said.

Lin Xiqi also knew in his heart that if you want others, you will definitely pay a lot of money.

"Old Du, do you think we have the opportunity to form an intelligence force like Tianyan Tower?" Lin Xiqi asked.

Du Fuchong was stunned, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Young Master, your request is too difficult to achieve."

Lin Xiqi had also talked about forming his own intelligence organization before, but Du Fuchong just thought that it was like some major forces and sects, and having his own intelligence source was enough.

But I never thought that Lin Xiqi had such a big idea, and he wanted to be the same as Tianyan Tower. He had never thought about these things at all, and he dared not think about them.

"The goal should be expanded." Lin Xiqi smiled, "Didn't Zuo Jian just want to make the 'Gaove' over several old killer organizations such as the 'Blood Snake'? Then why can't this intelligence organization?"

Du Fuchong shook his head, and he felt that it was still a little unlikely.

"Young Master, the information about it is not just about strength," Du Fuchong said.

"I understand, Wang Dong has also talked to me." Lin Xiqi nodded, "The ability to collect intelligence cannot be judged by its level of skill alone."

"Young Master, do you want to use Wang Dong?" Du Fuchong asked.

"Do you think it's appropriate?" Lin Xiqi asked.

Du Fuchong knew Lin Xiqi's thoughts and the candidates in charge of intelligence, and they have not found a suitable one yet.

"It's appropriate. The ability of the Emperor Dragon Spy is worthy of recognition, especially those with outstanding abilities like Wang Dong." Du Fuchong nodded, "But he is a person from the court after all, and he needs to be cautious when handing over such important things to him."

"It is precisely because of this that I asked you to check Wang Dong's background." Lin Xiqi said, "He wants to show his ambitions now, and there is no other possibility. The court has already made a special mercy not to kill him."

Du Fuchong nodded and said, "If he really wants to serve the young master, there will definitely be no problem with the intelligence."

"Without knowledge, all aspects can benefit from it." Lin Xiqi said, "especially, it can complement the 'Gagger'."

"Since the young master has decided, do you need the old slave to do what?" Du Fuchong asked.

"The main thing is financial support, and the rest must be left to professionals." Lin Xiqi said.

Du Fuchong was Lin Xiqi's housekeeper, and he handled most of the matters, and money would be handled by him.

"No problem." Du Fuchong nodded.

The benefits obtained from the Mo Shang Sect and the Sunset Gang this time made his pockets bulge and he no longer had to worry about the shortage of funds, at least for a period of time.

Under Chen Changjie's leadership, many craftsmen came to the county government office to start repairing damaged houses.

Wang Dong also began to recruit yamen runners, and the notice had been posted.

There are many people watching, but no one comes here.

After all, everyone knows the treatment of Sandao County yamen runners.

After so many years, all people have escaped, who dares to come?

"Sir, the butler Wang of the Wang family in the city is asking for advice." The yamen runner named Ma San came to Lin Xiqi's study and asked for advice.

"Wang Family?" Lin Xiqi asked in confusion.

"It is the largest business in the county, the Wang family business." Ma San explained.

"Oh? Let him come in." Lin Xiqi nodded and said.

He had heard of the Wang Family Business, which was a considerable force in Sandao County.

Speaking of which, the Wang family is probably stronger than the Mo Shang Sect and the Sunset Gang.

It’s not that his strength is stronger than the two factions, but that his background is stronger.

The Wang family and Liushamen have a closer relationship. Many women in the Wang family have married Liushamen's disciples. After many years, some of these disciples have become elders of Liushamen and rank high.

Therefore, the Wang family is somewhat famous in Sandao County and even Dunhuang County.

Relying on this relationship, few people dare to provoke their Wang family's business in Dunhuang County. After operating for so many years, the name of the richest man in Sandao County is not a praising issue.

An old man in a brocade dress of sixty years old walked over arrogantly.

"Sir, you are polite." Butler Wang smiled and said.

"Why don't you kneel when you see me?" Lin Xiqi said lightly.

Butler Wang laughed and still had no intention of saluting, and said, "I heard that the master of the family has taken office, and I specially sent me to congratulate you."

After saying that, Butler Wang touched the cuff, then took out a silver note and placed it on Lin Xiqi's desk and said, "Please accept it with a smile."

"What does this mean?" Lin Xiqi asked after looking at the 1,000 taels of silver bill.

"Sir, you may not understand the rules of Sandao County when you are just a newcomer." said Mr. Wang.

"Oh? What other rules do I don't know?" Lin Xiqi leaned back and asked with a smile with a squinted eye.

Butler Wang sat down on the chair beside him, saying, "No matter who is a parent in Sandao County, our Wang family will not treat the adults badly. They will offer another 10,000 taels of benefits every year."

"What do you want me to do?" Lin Xiqi asked.

"My lord doesn't have to do anything," said Mr. Wang, laughing. "My lord just needs to wait for the benefits every year. Our Wang family can handle other things."

"I understand, I'll see you off." Lin Xiqi said lightly.

After Ma San sent Butler Wang out, he came back and said carefully to Lin Xiqi: "Sir, the Wang family is extremely powerful."
