#139 - The Wuliang Mingwang Sect
The woman called Ayina held a scimitar, staring at the young man warily and fiercely.
After a moment, she asked:
"Are you Meng Xinghun?"
This ordinary-looking young man was Liang Jin.
Since stabilizing Dingfeng City, Liang Jin had planned to build a killer organization.
Liang Jin then took in this group of people, changed the name of the Black Flag Tower to Green Robe Tower, and started the killer business.
Later, Liang Jin discovered the characteristics of [Thousand Mile Tracking], which was indeed very suitable for a killer organization.
[Thousand Mile Tracking] can not only provide the target location, but also provide the target's portrait and information.
Relying on this characteristic, the killers never went to the wrong place, let alone the wrong person.
This also allowed the Green Robe Tower to quickly spread its reputation in the Western Desert during this period.
Even many outsiders came here, spending money to kill people.
"Since you've heard of me, sit down and have a good chat."
"Don't bring such a strong murderous aura, I have no grudges with you."
It's strange to say.
Whenever Liang Jin sits in this Green Robe Tower, he always feels like he is a businessman, and his temper will become particularly good.
He would never say that he would kill a customer because of a disagreement.
So customers sometimes have bad tempers, and Liang Jin will not easily get angry.
Anyway, most of the customers who come here have bad tempers.
Liang Jin was used to this situation.
Ayina and several strong men exchanged glances, and then sat down in the chairs.
Liang Jin's move just now made them know that the person in front of them was highly skilled in martial arts.
But the weapons in their hands were still tightly held.
"How do you know Bartell?"
Ayina questioned.
Liang Jin smiled slightly:
"The information here is naturally the most accurate."
"I rely on this intelligence channel to make a living, so I can't tell you."
"Leave the gold, and I'll give you Bartell's location."
Ayina waved to the strong man carrying the gold.
The strong man immediately threw a bag of gold cakes towards Liang Jin.
Liang Jin took the bag and replied:
"Bartell is now in Shamen Village, Qichen Town. If you go there quickly, you can still find him."
"If you drag your feet and can't find anyone, you can only inquire locally."
"As for the money, it will not be refunded."
Ayina and several strong men got the address and immediately stood up.
"You better not lie to me!"
"Otherwise, we will come back and tear down your building!"
After uttering harsh words, Ayina turned and left with the strong men.
Liang Jin looked at the gold cakes in his hand and couldn't help but sigh:
"This money is so easy to earn!"
Just saying a few words and providing a piece of information, without even sending out a killer, he earned two hundred taels of gold.
Sure enough, making money from information is the easiest.
At this time.
A burst of footsteps sounded.
A thin-faced man with dark circles under his eyes walked in:
"Master Meng, the people from the yamen are inviting you to come over."
This man was Luo Feng.
He is responsible for the business of the Green Robe Tower on weekdays.
After he gets the list, he will hand it over to Liang Jin, and then Liang Jin will provide intelligence information.
It is rare for Liang Jin to personally sit in charge like today.
Only when Liang Jin is really idle, he will occasionally make a cameo appearance.
"Okay, Shopkeeper Luo, I'll leave this to you."
Liang Jin got up and walked outside.
He rode his horse all the way and soon arrived at the county yamen.
This place used to be the Qin Mansion, but later Gao Hongzhe restored it to the county yamen and made it look decent.
At least on the surface, it looked exactly like the county yamen Liang Jin had seen in the Daqian territory.
When Liang Jin dismounted, a yamen servant ran over to take the reins:
"Master Meng, you're here."
"Lord Gao is waiting for you in the study."
Liang Jin nodded and strode into the county yamen.
The officials along the way couldn't help but salute Liang Jin.
Liang Jin walked in this yamen, as if he was walking in his own home, freely and unimpeded.
No one felt strange about this.
After all, everyone knew that the reconstruction of the Dingfeng City yamen was inseparable from Liang Jin's support.
Without Liang Jin and his gang's martial power, nothing would be possible.
Liang Jin looked at the basically fully equipped officials and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
He sighed that Gao Hongzhe was a very generous person.
After Gao Hongzhe reopened the county yamen, he summoned all the former county yamen officials.
Even though many of them had ignored him, ridiculed him, and even betrayed him, causing him to almost die in the water prison.
But Gao Hongzhe did not blame them. As long as they were willing to assist him in reopening the county yamen, he treated them with courtesy.
Liang Jin couldn't do this.
Those who betrayed Liang Jin only had one way to die.
When Liang Jin arrived at the study, Gao Hongzhe had already made tea.
"Brother Meng, you're here."
"Sit down, sit down, come and taste this tea."
"The price of tea in this Western Desert is ten times that of Daqian. It's not easy to drink good tea."
Gao Hongzhe greeted Liang Jin to sit down.
But after the two sat down, the first thing Gao Hongzhe asked Liang Jin for was to borrow money!
It turned out.
Gao Hongzhe has been organizing the people to repair the city walls recently.
But repairing the city walls costs a lot of money, and Gao Hongzhe has to maintain the operation of the yamen, and the money is not enough at all.
Collecting taxes is a good way, but Gao Hongzhe can't collect too much tax silver for the time being.
So Gao Hongzhe set his sights on Liang Jin's silver.
"Brother Meng, please be sure to help this time."
"If you can help the county yamen through the difficulties, Gao will definitely be grateful."
Gao Hongzhe has become a lot more capable since this period of training, and has lost a lot of pretentious polite words.
In particular, the temperament of the whole person has also changed greatly.
In the past, Gao Hongzhe was brave and forward for the sake of his beliefs, but he was always too frivolous and impatient.
But now he seems more and more calm, and the whole person also has a bit of the appearance of an official, and his aura has also improved a lot.
Gao Hongzhe knew that Liang Jin had money.
Liang Jin got a lot of silver and property from destroying Red Sand Slope and Fengku Rock, which can just solve Gao Hongzhe's urgent needs.
Liang Jin smiled slightly at this:
"I don't need that money much now, it's okay to lend it to you."
"It's just…"
His money is naturally not borrowed for nothing.
Gao Hongzhe is much more flexible now. He understood as soon as he heard it, so he smiled and said:
"Qin Shuanglu left many industries. Some of the yamen have confiscated them, and some of the yamen are not convenient to manage directly."
"For example, brothels and casinos, Brother Meng can freely dispose of them."
Gao Hongzhe is determined to establish a glorious image of the yamen, so that the people can respect it.
Therefore, Gao Hongzhe does not want the county yamen to intervene in these gray industries.
Liang Jin said lightly:
"Brother Gao, my people have killed back and forth in these industries several times. Up to now, no one dares to take over."
"If I want them, they are naturally mine, so why should Brother Gao give them to me?"
Gao Hongzhe smiled awkwardly:
"I don't know what Brother Meng wants?"
Liang Jin replied:
"There is a salt lake to the east of Dingfeng City, and a copper mountain to the west."
"I will need them to boil salt and mint coins in the future."
These days, the county yamen has been counting the population, land, resources, etc. of Dingfeng City and its vicinity, and Liang Jin has also roughly understood the nearby situation.
Gao Hongzhe didn't hesitate about this.
He said frankly:
"I once promised Brother Meng that if Brother Meng wants to boil salt, cast iron, and make copper coins, I have no problem."
"It's just that the scope that the yamen can manage now is only within the city. I'm afraid no one will pay attention to the government orders outside the city."
"Even if I promise Brother Meng now, it's just a piece of paper. Brother Meng might as well ask for something practical."
Liang Jin shook his head slightly:
"What I want is your future."
"There is nothing you can give me in Dingfeng City now."
"Don't worry, Tanhualang, you only need to give me a promise, and I will send someone to send the money over in a while."
Liang Jin really doesn't lack money now. A single Green Robe Tower brings him a steady stream of wealth.
And the ten thousand taels of gold in the props column have not been used until now.
Gao Hongzhe was overjoyed when he heard this, and was about to thank him.
At this time.
Liang Jin's ears moved slightly:
"Someone is coming."
"Still a master."
As Liang Jin's voice fell, suddenly there was a burst of hahahaha laughter outside the study.
Immediately afterwards, a figure lightly landed outside the study.
Obviously, his lightness skill is not bad.
The person who came was actually a tall and burly monk.
He had a shaved head, a face full of steel needle-like stubble, his upper body was bare-chested, his chest was covered with dense chest hair, and a string of Buddhist beads hung around his neck.
He wore a large red monk's trousers on his lower body. His belly seemed to be too big, causing the waistband of his trousers to be very low, as if they would fall off at any time. He had a pair of big feet without shoes.
And on his shoulder, he was carrying a large knife.
The back of the large knife was very thick, obviously not light in weight.
Although this person is a monk, he does not have the kind eyebrows and kind eyes of a monk, but instead has a ferocious face.
"Amitabha!"
"I am from the Wuliang Mingwang Sect, and my dharma name is Xiong Xiang!"
"Who the hell is in charge here now?"
