Chapter 45: Popularity
Just when Bai Ling was thinking about visiting this fellow earthman in two days, Steward Zhou brought Bai Ling good news.
It turns out that Bai Ling didn't want believers to start a killer business before? It is impossible for a believer who is originally unknown to have those guests recognize him in such a short period of time.
After all, killers who don't have a reputation, those who really need to hire killers, won't be invited. After all, losing money in vain is a small matter, and if the intention is exposed, the next assassination will not be so easy. Therefore, it is not so easy for believers to carry out the work of killers.
But fortunately, the believers did not wait for someone to come to the door by themselves, after all, no one knew that no one would come. Besides, the work of this killer cannot be publicized openly, after all, the killer also belongs to a part of the people who exist in the dark, and others also cherish their feathers, and they will not accept ten out of ten people to promote the killer openly.
But if you can't do it openly, you can come secretly, as long as you show the believer's superb martial arts at the right time, and then tell the killer's contact location, that is, the shop rented by Steward Zhou, and slowly some people will start to come here to give it a try.
It's a good thing that someone trys, so that success can give people a sense of reliability, otherwise others won't believe it, and if they want to find a killer, they won't come to the believer.
In fact, these powerful people have their own guards or loyal subordinates, but if they use these people to do bad things, it is easy to expose their masters, so they generally do not use their own people to do some dangerous things or things that are easy to expose.
And the Shadow Building, a newly emerged killer organization, just solved their difficulties, not to mention that the people in the Shadow Building are all good at martial arts, and basically they will not miss. Although it is a little more expensive, it is not more expensive than cultivating talents by yourself, and it is convenient for you to not have to take risks, so the reputation of the Shadow House gradually spread among the powerful in the capital.
In fact, the people here are still very restrained, the assassination tasks received by the Shadow Building, not much in a month, most of them are in the capital, of course, there are those who need to go to various places to assassinate, the Shadow Building has completed the employer's task very well, and has a good reputation.
At this time, Bai Ling didn't want to go against the imperial court, so the royal people, as well as some important ministers, were not within the scope of the Shadow Tower's assassination, although no one came to buy their lives now, but even if there were, the Shadow Tower would not take it.
Because although the killer's work is profitable, but there are not many orders every month, a large number of manpower is wasted, although everyone is cultivating in their spare time, but they have not contributed to Bai Ling, eating and drinking for nothing, and the believers are still very restless, so like Bai Ling, ask for instructions, and widen the scope of business.
Bai Ling thought about it, and readily agreed to their request, agreeing that they could do the work of temporary guards, pick up protectors, or escort goods. In this way, I killed two birds with one stone, escorted the goods, and maybe brought some new companions back.
Because most of the magnates in the capital knew the power of the people in the Shadow Building, they heard that the Shadow Building not only did killer tasks, but also took on protection and escort tasks, and these magnates became more interested in the Shadow Building. Everyone cherishes their own lives, so the guards of the Shadow House are very popular, especially if they have enemies, or powerful people who go far away, they will always hire people from the Shadow House to escort safety.
Although the price is a bit expensive, the people in the Shadow House are very skilled and worth the money.
With the spread of the reputation of the Shadow Building, the previous more than 500 believers are gradually insufficient, because they sent a lot of believers to infiltrate the mansions of various magnates, it is not easy to transfer people now, and the new believers have not grown well, so the rest of the believers can only work harder on their own to barely meet the needs.
But in a few months, when a new group of 3,000 believers is trained, they will be able to relax. Besides, there are new believers to develop on the way, so as long as this time is passed, there is no need to worry about manpower.
The next day, Bai Ling freshened up and went to the capital in a carriage. Today, Bai Ling was going to take a look at the possible traverser fellow, so Bai Ling didn't hang out, but prepared to meet Geng Gege.
Originally, the evening was the best, the least easy to find. But what if Geng Gege sleeps at night? Didn't Bai Ling run for nothing, besides, with Bai Ling's ability, it was the same day and night.
It took 10 faith points to exchange for an invisibility talisman, although the invisibility technique is a low-level spell, but because Bai Ling's exercises do not carry invisibility techniques, Bai Ling has no cultivation. And Bai Ling doesn't need to exchange it specifically for this spell, after all, this spell Bai Ling won't use too many places, and when the world is advanced, these low-level spells will not be of much use.
It's just that now that it is used in a low-level world like this, Bai Ling feels that it is still cost-effective to exchange for invisibility talismans. Sticking the invisibility talisman on his body, Bai Ling completely disappeared in front of people's eyes.
Bai Ling had figured out the location of the Fourth Elder Brother's Mansion and Geng Gege's location before, and Steward Zhou also told Bai Ling, so Bai Ling easily found Geng Gege's location.
Lying on Geng Gege's roof, Bai Ling wanted to see what Geng Gege was doing at this time. The believers who stayed behind before, because of the difference between men and women, did not monitor what Geng Gege was doing in the room, but now that Bai Ling was curious, he naturally investigated it himself.
However, Bai Ling found that the maids of Geng Gege's family were all outside, and one of them should be Geng Gege's henchmen, guarding the door of the room, thinking that they should not let people in.
Guarding it so tightly, and not knowing what Geng Gege was doing inside, Bai Ling's curiosity was stimulated, and he took away a tile on the roof to see what Geng Gege was doing in the house.
But the strange thing is that Bai Ling didn't find any trace of Geng Gege, according to such a well-guarded appearance, Geng Gege should be in the house. How could there be no one? Could it be that Geng Gege let people guard outside and went out secretly?
It's not impossible, Geng Gege may also have had some adventures, and he was able to hide from others and secretly leave here. Thinking of this, Bai Ling's interest was even greater, but Bai Ling thought that Geng Gege would inevitably come back, so Bai Ling kept it there, paying close attention to the situation in the house, because he didn't know what kind of means Geng Gege would have and how to return to the room.
So Bai Ling was there to guard, but it was not okay to watch all the time, so Bai Ling released his divine sense and closely monitored everything in this Geng Gege house.
Just when Bai Ling was waiting impatiently, there was movement in Geng Gege's room, and Bai Ling's divine sense sensed that Geng Gege suddenly appeared in the room.
