Zongwu: Aspiring to be the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 18 Three Puppies and a Eunuch

"In the capital of a country, every inch of land is worth a lot of money, yet Brother Pei's residence has a small lake... Haha, you are worthy of being the Prime Minister!"

"Brother Yin, you're joking. This mansion was given by His Majesty, not built by me."

"I see... Oh, Brother Pei is busy, so you don't have to stay here with me. It would be more interesting for me to enjoy the lake view alone."

....................................

The next day, Dao Feng came again: "Young Master, Dao Feng is here to report."

"Oh? That's pretty quick."

Zhou Mingdao: "Take it out and let me see it."

"Yes."

Three people came up immediately, each carrying a bamboo cage, and the sounds of woofing and barking spread.

When I opened it, I saw three puppies.

A white-haired minke, its body is snow-white without a trace of black.

A black wolfhound, completely black without a trace of white.

The third one was just a local dog.

All three puppies were born not long ago.

Finding these three dogs was one of the tasks Zhou Ming assigned in the letter yesterday.

Don’t underestimate the importance of just finding a dog; it may look easy, but it is harder to do.

Zhou Ming did not just randomly look for dogs. In the letter, he clearly requested the breeds and coat colors of the three dogs.

And it has to be a puppy!
People are only wary of things that pose a threat to them, such as other people, but often don't care about things that pose no threat to them, such as a dog.

A carefully trained spy observing people passing by on a street may be able to remember the general appearance of each person, but may not be able to remember a passing dog.

What's more, Zhou Ming asked for a puppy.

Puppies are unable to walk.

Whether born by domestic dogs or wild dogs, they often hide in secluded places.

If you want to find it, and find it in a short time, the search ability is not weak.

Of course, none of the above is the key.

The most important thing is that on his way back, Zhou Ming wanted to raise a few dogs.

So, he assigned this task.

"good."

Zhou Mingdao: "You have passed the test. Now comes the real mission."

"Young Master, please give the order."

"Go monitor the owner of the world's number one manor. The time... is uncertain. Normally, report every three days. But if anything unusual happens, report to me immediately."

"Respect!"

Dao Feng left.

"Suck, suck, suck..."

Zhou Ming called the puppies, and the three puppies raised their heads to sniff his scent, whimpering at the same time.

Chunhua and the others couldn't help but smile and said, "How cute..."

"Master, didn't you say before that you wanted to keep a cat?"

"It's too late. The kittens we find now are at least three months old and too old."

Zhou Mingdao.

The breeding season for cats is spring and autumn, and the latest is September, but now it is winter.

In fact, these three puppies are also grown up, and the ones Zhou Ming wants are the ones that were just a few days old.

However, it is much easier to cultivate a dog's loyalty than a cat's, so he doesn't mind even at this age, but a cat doesn't.

After all, he wants to replicate the miracle of Dog Brother with these cats and dogs.

Once you succeed, and raise a cat or dog that is proficient in internal skills and has internal strength, but is not loyal, that is not a good thing.

Chunhua and others didn't know what Zhou Ming was thinking at this time, and just thought it was a pity.

Zhou Mingdao said, "What's the pity? We can catch them next spring. If you really feel sorry for them, just get them back from these three dogs."

Then he pointed at the three dogs and said, "Let's name the black one Mimi and the white one Miaomiao. How about that?"

Qiuyue was speechless and said, "Master, you haven't found a cat that suits your taste, so you have to call a dog a cat?"

Xia Feng found it interesting and asked, "What about this local dog?"

"This one..." Zhou Ming caught it. The puppy seemed to sense something was wrong and barked twice.

"Haha, after all, we caught three dogs and turned two into cats, so at least one of them should be a dog, right? Let's not give this one those messy names, let's give it a real dog name."

After discussing it, they decided to name this last lucky dog ​​Lai Fu.

Zhou Ming placed his hopes on it.

I hope that one day this little dog will be able to fight off someone with supernatural powers.

The second person to complete the order was Jing Lei.

"Young Master, the information about this person has been thoroughly investigated."

Zhou Ming took the thin papers from Jing Lei's hand and checked them one by one.

"The head of the East Factory... Feiying! It's him!"

This person was the one who had someone pretend to be a robber and rob and kill Zhou Ming.

At that time, Zhou Ming left marks on all the robbers, and then deliberately let Dongxue kill several people.

The few who survived carried Zhou Ming's mark and met the mastermind behind the scenes.

Although they were killed on the spot, Zhou Ming still saw the man's appearance.

This time, the task Jing Lei received was to investigate the identity of this person.

Unexpectedly, this person is the head of the East Factory, Feiying. He is good at martial arts and his weapon is a pair of iron claws, so he is also called Iron Claw Flying Eagle.

The lowest-level staff in the East Factory are the "Fanzi", and several Fanzi are led by a "Dangtou".

The difference between the two can be simply understood as constables and constables, but in the East Factory, a constable only has a few subordinates, and there are quite a lot of constables, more than a hundred.

The big boss of Feiying is actually the one who ranks first among all the bosses.

But don’t think this is a small position.

The East Factory was composed of eunuchs and had a streamlined staff. The total number of personnel in the entire East Factory was only a few hundred people.

Excluding the bosses and guards, the remaining people are probably less than fifty, including various clerks.

Once he becomes the big boss, there will only be a few people above him in the East Factory system.

From this perspective, the previous robbery and murder of Zhou Ming was most likely the idea of ​​the Eastern Depot.

But Iron Claw Eagle has a secret identity.

That was the spy sent by Hulong Villa to the East Factory.

However, this does not mean that the Iron Claw Eagle's action was ordered by the Dragon Guard Villa.

As a spy, Iron Claw Eagle receives orders from two major forces at the same time.

Unless there is a conflict between the orders of the East Factory and the orders of the Hulong Villa, he, as a spy, will not act recklessly and will only obey orders.

And Zhou Ming is someone who is outside the power of these two.

Therefore, we need to continue investigating who is giving the instructions.

"Boiled!"

Zhou Ming suddenly realized that his luck had been a little too bad recently.

How come since I came back, everyone I meet is Lao Liu with a dual identity?
Needless to say, my adoptive father Pei Ju.

The same goes for Yin Zhong.

Now even Iron Claw Eagle has a dual identity!

However, Jing Lei's ability is really good. He can even find out such detailed information from the head of the East Factory.

Zhou Mingdao said, "Well done. Next, you will monitor another person, the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, Wan Sanqian. Do you understand?"

"Subordinates take orders."

After accepting the new task, Jing Lei also left.

In this way, two of the four tasks Zhou Ming arranged yesterday have been completed.

The remaining two cannot be completed in a day or two.

Ten days later, Ji Dian returned and handed over the items required for his mission to Zhou Ming.

Eight account books!

Zhou Ming opened it and looked at it. The ink on it was still fresh, obviously it had just been copied.

"Is there anything wrong?"

"After I copied it, I checked it three times and found no mistakes or omissions."

"Okay, your team's test is complete. Next, your mission is... to keep an eye on one person!"
