Chapter 58 The Villain’s Traditional Performing Arts
Xu Yuan glanced at the roll-shaped paper secret report in front of him, and was slightly surprised.
Unexpectedly, the following work efficiency,
It was not Zhou Chen who accidentally handed over the secret to him, but the steward.
He ordered Zhou Chen to do this matter, and with Zhou Chen's idle working state, he probably wouldn't miss this opportunity to be courteous first, but the fact is that this secret report was not sent by Zhou Chen.
Then there is only one reason left.
The procedure does not match, Zhou Chen has no right to intervene in the Black Scale Guard, let alone the intelligence agency of Xiangguo Mansion.
In this way, this matter is somewhat interesting.
There are many intelligence systems in Xiangguo Mansion, and the Black Scale Guard, who was born in Yinger, is just one of them.
Subsidiaries of the Tianan Chamber of Commerce, such as Goulan, restaurants, and various pawnshops and banks, also have the function of collecting information.
Orders are issued from above, intelligence is collected from below, and the useless ones are filtered out layer by layer, and the useful ones are kept. Finally, the summarized information is transmitted back in ciphertext, and the person who received these contacts turned out to be a mansion manager.
Power is greater than he imagined.
But Xu Yuan felt relieved immediately.
The influence of the manga and anime I watched in the previous life is still a bit deep-rooted.
It made him subconsciously feel that in an extraordinary world, the power in his hands must be equal to his own strength.
However, practical cultivation talent and management ability will not be linked. If a group of laymen with brains full of muscles are really allowed to manage the property, no matter how big the family business may be, it may be ruined.
This kind of power structure is quite stable for the upper class. The managers of various industries in the family are like eunuchs in the palace of the previous life.
Reaching out to take the scroll of secret report, Xu Yuan was about to open it to have a look, but found that there was a thin layer of source qi fluctuations and some simple patterns flowing on it.
After carefully perceiving the patterns on the surface of the scroll, Xu Yuan's eyes became a little strange.
This is
password?
Seeing Xu Yuan taking over, the little old man in charge immediately smiled flatteringly without any pause:
"Third Young Master, if this secret report is opened directly or violently, it will be broken automatically, and special means are required to open it."
Xu Yuan glanced at him: "Can you solve it?"
Array can still be used like this, interesting.
Manager Li rubbed his hands:
"You're just joking, how could the little old man know how to solve the secret pattern of the Black Scale Guard, and these secret reports are just a hand."
said,
He glanced sideways at Yinger who was following behind.
It seems that things like secret reports are only classified and kept by these mortal stewards, and there is no access to them.
Presumably it should be to prevent these mortal stewards from leaking information after being fascinated.
Xu Yuan directly kept secret and threw it to Ying'er behind;
"Untie."
Ying'er took it silently, ignoring Xu Yuan's mind-hunting observation, and directly untied the pattern on it, and handed it back to Xu Yuan.
Xu Yuan took back the secret report, Yuan Qi entered his eyes, and blood glistened in his eyes. While browsing, he casually asked the little old man:
"Is the elixir of the mansion taken from you?"
He ran out of elixir, and he didn't have a small green bottle, so he could only take care of Xiangguo's father's property.
"The little old man is indeed in charge of the money and medicine in the mansion." Li Guanshi rolled his eyes when he heard this, and laughed in a low voice: "It's just my lord, all the things in the warehouse are from the mansion, and the little old man doesn't care. Dare to act rashly"
"take it easy."
Xu Yuan glanced at him, knowing that the other party thought that he, the three young masters, were going to play against him again, and said softly:
"My father's order will come soon, go and see if there is any pill I need in the warehouse."
Hearing this, Li Guanshi couldn't deny it with an embarrassing smile:
Xu Yuan casually reported several pills he needs now.
Manager Li's face darkened more than half.
Of these things, the fourth-grade merging body priest in the mansion can't get a few pills a year, and the three young masters count as a bottle.
He made up his mind that it would be best if Mr. Xiangguo ordered it. If there was no order, he would have to hide from these three young masters for a while.
Thinking about this, Guanshi Li's tone is still humble:
"Little old man, go get it from you, do you have anything else to say?"
While speaking, the three of them had come out of the basement, and the sky outside was a vast expanse of blue.
Xu Yuan squinted his eyes, glanced at the nursing home on duty outside the secret room, and asked softly after a little hesitation:
"I once arranged for someone to find someone named Qin Mo, do you know about this?"
“.”
Hearing this, Guanshi Li's eyes twitched.
Because of this incident, the genius Xue Yong who was at the top of his iron body was killed. Does he, who is in charge, not know?
After a second of silence, Li Guanshi said cautiously:
"Know."
"Is there any progress?"
"..have."
Answer in the affirmative, but the tone is a bit weak.
Knowing this in his heart, Xu Yuan sighed slightly:
"Did you do it?"
He remembered that the original order was only to monitor and track.
Guanshi Li explained softly:
"The man was quite vigilant. When he found out that he was being followed, he wanted to escape. Our people had no choice but to do it."
"The result of your actions is that he escaped?"
"Yes." Li Guanshi observed Xu Yuan's expression.
But Xu Yuan had no expression on his face, and his tone remained flat:
"Tell me about the process carefully."
Guanshi Li carefully chose his words, and said softly:
"After you ordered it down, the little old man immediately started to arrange it when he learned about it. We found this person in the east of the city during the few days you were in retreat, but this person was quite difficult. The nursing home is not his opponent at all, and when the other nursing homes in the mansion arrive, this person has disappeared."
"There is no news about him after that?" Xu Yuan's voice was gentle and gentle.
"Once." Li Guanshi said bravely.
"Tell me."
"We tracked down this person in the Changhong Valley, which is more than 120 miles away from the west city, but...but he is very strong, but he has an eighth-rank pulse tempering cultivation, and two seventh-rank bone tempering powerhouses are not his opponents. .”
"All destroyed?"
"One escaped."
"." Xu Yuan.
After being quiet for a second, Xu Yuan looked at Guanshi Li and asked in a very puzzled voice:
"Why don't you send more sixth-ranks? I remember that among my guards, there are not a few peak sixth-ranks, and there should be fifth-rank soul condensing realms in the mansion."
Hearing this question, Guanshi Li twitched his cheeks, and explained in a low voice:
"Third Young Master, although the monthly salary of the entire Jingjiang mansion is distributed by the little old man, the young old man has no right to directly call the nursing homes above the bone training level, and your guards cannot be too far away from you according to the rules.
"And besides, who would have known that this beast could kill people by leapfrogging?"
Speaking of this, Li Guanshi paused and coughed lightly:
"But son, don't worry, there is only one exit from the Changhong Valley. I have reported this matter to the General Mansion, and after I got the consent, I have transferred three strong men in the iron body to wait for him outside the entrance of the valley."
