Zongwu: Aspiring to be the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 77: Deputy of Qingyi Building, Controlling Two Powers
A few days later, the news from Taiyuan spread throughout the world.

The true identity of the owner of Qingyi Tower was exposed and he was killed.

The first floor of Qingyi was completely cleared out.

There have been huge changes in the Jewelry Pavilion. Manager Li, who was originally in charge of the southern business, has become the new general manager.

His southern business was taken over by another person.

He was not a famous person, he seemed to be just a nobody.

All people know is that his surname is Qian.

Sun Shou once again disappeared into the darkness, and no one knew where he went.

Lu Xiaofeng and others left the city after touring Taiyuan for a few days.

All the disturbances have subsided.

It seems that the dust has settled.

late at night.

A man in black came to the mountain and looked at the demolished small building on the mountain. His eyes moved slightly, and then he went to the other side and opened a trap door under the thick fallen leaves in a forest.

There is a secret passage under the door.

He stepped in, moved forward cautiously, and soon reached the finish line.

After groping around for a while, he found what he was looking for, but it turned out to be a mechanism.

When the mechanism was triggered, the sound of mechanisms could be heard all around. There was a loud bang overhead, and a heavy iron door fell down, letting in orange candlelight.

The man in black was startled, but a familiar voice came from above: "You are here."

The man in black's eyes moved and he jumped up.

What comes into view is a huge space in the mountain belly, brightly lit all around.

If Lu Xiaofeng and others were here, they would definitely know that this was the space where they were when they blocked Huo Xiu.

But at that time, there was nothing in this space.

But at this moment, there were boxes lined up and all kinds of weapons and armor standing around.

Just like...it was supposed to be!

One of the boxes was opened, revealing countless gold, silver, and jewelry.

A very familiar figure in black was playing with the treasure inside.

The man in black took off his black mask, revealing a very ordinary face.

He is indeed an ordinary person... at least on the surface.

But secretly, he is actually a killer in Qingyi Tower, ranked first in Qingyi Tower.

Yes, he is the deputy of Huo Xiu, the master of Qingyi Tower!

"Are...are you okay?" the deputy asked in surprise, with a hint of tentativeness.

The man said, "What can I do?"

"Rumor has it... you're not..."

"Rumors in the martial arts world? Do you think they're true or false?"

"This... I dare not make a final conclusion."

"Ha ha……"

The man said, "Tell all the building owners and assassins under your command that Qingyi Building has been operating for many years and has aroused fear, and we accidentally revealed the location of our headquarters. I faked my own death, putting myself in a desperate situation and then surviving. This is how I did it, to reassure them."

"Yes!"

"Also, all killers' share will be increased by 10%. The host will get a 20% increase! As for you, your share will be increased by 30%!"

The deputy's pupils shrank.

Although he was still skeptical just now, he is now certain.

This person is not the OP!

In this world, body shape and appearance can be changed through disguise, but nature cannot!

And Huo Xiu is a miser!

He can spend a fortune on his own ideas, but he will never share his wealth with others!
This person actually wants to increase the share of the profits between the killers and the owner of Qingyi Tower, so he must be fake!
In that case, does that mean the real poster... is indeed dead?!

An endless joy rose in the deputy's heart.

If so, then can I...

"Cheng Si!" The man directly exposed his deputy's true identity and said, "A 30% increase is quite a bit for you. This is also because you have a family of fourteen and it's not easy to support them. Other than that, don't overthink it."

The deputy suddenly felt as if he had jumped into an ice river, and an extremely cold feeling spread from his toes to his heart.

The joy just now disappeared in an instant, and there was only fear!

Cheng Si is his real name.

However, there are actually only ten people in his family.

Working in this industry is too dangerous. Once your identity is exposed, your entire family can easily be killed.

A cunning rabbit has three burrows. In order to pass on his bloodline, he actually kept two concubines in other places.

These two concubines were quite capable and each gave birth to a son for him.

Including these four people, there are exactly fourteen people in total!
However, he hid these two concubines very well, and even the original owner of the building didn't know about it.

However, the one in front of me...

Cheng Si immediately stopped having any other thoughts and clasped his fists tremblingly, saying, "Thank you... Thank you for your understanding..."

"Haha, work hard. You've been with me for so many years, I won't treat you unfairly."

The man said, "When you return, keep an eye on the movements of your men. If anyone rebels, you don't need to do anything. Just report their names to me."

"Yes, the host!"

"This place will no longer be used, and you don't need to come here again. As for where the first building will be built, I'll let you know later.

Go down. "

"Yes……"

Cheng Si nodded, then left through the secret passage.

After he left, the man turned around and looked around.

"Okay, Qingyi Tower is under control."

The killer industry follows the extremely primitive law of the jungle.

As long as you are strong enough, you don’t have to worry about someone disobeying you.

This is especially true in Qingyi Tower, where there are few true masters.

With Zhou Ming's methods, as long as he kills all the rebels who appear during this period, he will be able to completely and smoothly take control of Qingyi Tower.

In comparison, the Jewelry Pavilion is more troublesome.

When doing business, what matters is vision, means and connections.

Financial resources can only be ranked below these.

Therefore, talent is even more important.

If you want to control the Jewelry Pavilion, you naturally cannot use such simple and crude methods.

Fortunately, Zhou Ming had already won over Boss Qian, a business talent.

According to the deal reached with Manager Li, Sun Shou would help him become the manager of the Jewelry Pavilion.

But he had to hand over the business in the south.

In this regard, Zhou Ming directly asked Boss Qian to
With his ability and Zhou Ming's support, it is not difficult for him to control the Jewel Pavilion.

Let’s talk about Tsing Yi First Floor.

There are actually quite a lot of good things in this building.

Excluding those gold, silver and treasures, the rest, such as the iron cage made of refined steel, are quite good.

The secret passage that Cheng Si took when he came in just now was the same secret passage that Huo Xiu had planned to escape through before.

The secret passage door is made of a whole piece of steel plate that is nearly two centimeters thick, which is also made of refined steel.

It can also be projected and used as a shield.

In the middle of the main entrance passage, there is a larger door, with a huge stone weighing thousands of pounds inside and covered with steel on the outside.

The reason why Huo Xiu was so sure that everyone would not be able to escape after arriving at this space in the mountain was because he activated the mechanism and lowered the door after everyone came in.

In fact, even though there were many masters present such as Dugu Yihe, Ximen Chuxue, Lu Xiaofeng, etc., they could only wait for rescue in front of this door.

If this thing were projected out, it would be like a living city wall built in front of you!

In addition, there are 108 mechanisms here, including bows and crossbows, swords, axes, poisons, spears and other types.

Move everything into your portable space to fill up your projection inventory!
