With the sound of a wooden ladder, the curtains of the private room were pulled open not long after. A man in his thirties in a suit walked in with a smile on his face. His hair was neatly combed, and he looked like a boss.
He glanced at White Jade City, but he didn't look at it for long. He quickly cupped his hands at the Grand Master and said," Grand Master, it's been a long time. Are you still healthy? My father misses you a lot. Thanks to you taking care of us all these years, the Dark Dragon Tribe hasn't dispersed…"
The advisor sat there with a straight face and had no intention of standing up. His old eyes sized up the thirty-year-old eldest young master and suddenly said," Dalang, did you fight with someone? Where's your blowdart? That blow dart is a secret item. It's coated with poison. Anyone who touches it will die. Did you kill someone?”
The Eldest Young Master, who was addressed as Dalang, suddenly looked very embarrassed. He was like a child who had done something wrong. He stood there uneasily and said," Grand Master, this matter is not what you think…"
"It's not what I think!" The advisor slammed the tea table and growled," You useless thing! If you had half of your father's ability when he was young, you wouldn't have let me, an old man, still be on duty. Tell me, what was he like?”
Dalang's face was ashen. He stood there and said slowly," It's like this. I rushed to Long Sand City early this morning and found a place to have breakfast. Thinking that we would meet at noon, I went to have some fun. Then, I went to the pear garden. There was a play in the pear garden singing Farewell My Concubine. I saw his performance and there were traces of martial arts in every move. He must be an expert! I couldn't control my temper, so I wanted to fight with him and cause him some trouble. I thought that this actor would definitely not be able to stand my bullying and fight with me. Who knew that a few soldiers would come in halfway through my provocation. The leader seemed to be a senior officer. They pointed their guns at me. I had no choice but to leave. Before I left, I wanted to leave some traces for that senior officer to remember and not meddle in other people's business in the future. Who knew... However, he directly shot a ring into the sky and blocked my blow dart. That god-like move scared me so much that I quickly came back. I didn't kill anyone, Grand Master. I've always listened to my father and you…"
Hearing this, the advisor seemed to have calmed down a lot. He cupped his fists at White Jade City and said," I'm sorry to make a fool out of you, Young Master. I'm very rash and violent. I've been causing trouble since I was young.”
White Jade City didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at the Grand Master. When White Jade City saw this scene, he completely understood who the person in charge of Dark Dragon Tribe was. It was the Grand Master! It was not the so-called Deputy Dragon Leader of the Dark Group. Seeing the eldest son of the Deputy Dragon Leader being scolded like a grandson, it was obvious that the Dark Dragon Group had long been the private hall of the Grand Master. The fact that the Grand Master insisted on inviting the son of the Deputy Dragon Leader undoubtedly proved one thing. He was an open and aboveboard person. He did not want to lie to him and cause unhappiness in the later stages.
Dalang stared at White Jade City and wondered who this kid was. It didn't make sense for Grand Master to take such a fancy to her.
Just as Dalang was about to ask, the advisor said," Dalang, this is the person I mentioned in the letter to your father. He wants to do big business with us. You can call him Sixth Young Master.”
Dalang said in a daze," Grand Master, how much capital did he bring with him when doing big business? Did he give a deposit? Our line of work is quite dangerous now. My father told me not to take on any work without a deposit…"
"Shut up!" The advisor was so angry that his right hand was trembling. He scolded," Money, money, money, all you can think about is money. How can the Sixth Young Master be an ordinary person? Does the business that the Sixth Young Master wants to do need money? That was a good deal! What do you know!"
The eldest son blinked his eyes and read out, then quickly cupped his hands respectfully at White Jade City." The eldest son of the Cheng family, Cheng Tianhao, greets the Sixth Young Master."”
White Jade City also returned the greeting." Greetings, Brother Cheng. You've come from afar. Have a cup of tea first."”
Cheng Dalang laughed and sat down as he said," I have to drink some tea. I've been rushing all the way here. What kind of business is this that the Sixth Young Master mentioned? Can you tell me?"
The advisor said calmly," This business is our old line of work.”
Cheng Dalang was slightly stunned. He quickly gestured with his hand to cut his neck." Oh, I understand now. We're rebelling! This is good. I like doing this. I don't dare to say anything else, Sixth Young Master. Our group of people have almost 300 years of experience in this business. You know the Great Qing Dynasty, right? Ever since the establishment of the Great Qing Dynasty, my ancestors have been doing this business. At that time, our reputation was at its peak. We even had the power to assassinate the emperor! I don't dare to say anything else, but please believe us when it comes to rebelling. We are definitely professionals. We have been rebelling for 300 years, and all the emperors of the Qing Dynasty have seen us as a thorn in their side…"
As a result, the atmosphere on the table became very awkward. White Jade City and the private advisor looked at each other and listened to Cheng Tianhao's shameless bragging. They felt embarrassed.
White Jade City was also an eye-opener. Xiaobai had never seen someone who could talk about rebellion so confidently and with a hint of pyramid schemes. How could such a thing be said like that? Shouldn't it be vague and half-guessing? Is it really okay for you to say it directly? This Cheng Tianhao was really a one-track-minded person. He deserved to be reprimanded by the Grand Master.
The advisor coughed and stopped Cheng Tianhao." Dalang, I still have something to discuss with the Sixth Young Master. Have some tea first."”
" Oh, go on, go on-" Dalang lowered his head hurriedly.
The advisor looked at White Jade City." May I ask, if you succeed, will you inherit the Red Flower Union or establish a new name?"”
White Jade City flicked her teacup." The Qing Dynasty has been dead for more than twenty years. Without any rivals, the succession of the Red Flower Gang is meaningless. It's better to establish another one.”
The advisor asked again," Then what should we do?”
White Jade City's eyes lit up." White Jade City in the sky. There are twelve floors and five cities. The immortals caress my head, and my hair is tied to receive immortality. Let's call it White Jade City."”
The advisor nodded and pondered for a moment." Bai Mingming means the blue sky and white sun. Jade means the bones of a man, and the capital means the great cause of a thousand years. A good name, White Jade Capital! How should I address you, young master? We can't use our real names, otherwise, some things will be very difficult…"
White Jade City stood up and looked out of the window." I understand. My code name is Changsheng."”
The advisor nodded and pondered." Changsheng, a good name!”
White Jade City rubbed her hands and said," Let's call it a day. A few of our tails have followed us to the teahouse. Let's part ways early."”
"What?" Dalang went to the window and looked down. There were a few soldiers wandering in front of the teahouse. Dalang hurriedly said," Bastard, it must be that officer who sent people to follow them!”
White Jade City glanced at Dalang." Why? Do you want to challenge Lord Zeng one-on-one?"”
Dalang's expression was arrogant." Can't I? Is he very powerful?"
White Jade City recalled the corpse that had died tragically and tried to make a gesture." He could strangle you with one hand, just like how he would strangle a dog.”
"Impossible!" Dalang said.
White Jade City ignored him and walked straight out of the private room." That's all for today. I'll lure those tails away. Grand Master, you guys should leave quickly. I'll send the money over later and speed up the deployment. I need to know the latest news about what's happening in Long Sand City."”
The advisor cupped his hands and said to White Jade City," Changsheng, be careful on your journey. We'll take our leave first."”
As they spoke, the group parted ways, and White Jade City went downstairs.
