Chapter 67: The Iron Line Fishing Bureau
Maichai has caused a sensation in Bianliang City, and everyone knows that this Thai spiritualist has great powers, and can let Uncle Chai see the shadow of his deceased wife and talk at close range.
Everyone in Bianliang City had similar needs, and they came to the door one after another to ask for an interview with Maichai.
I handed it all over to Guan Mingzhu and Wan Xiaolong, and they took care of everything.
I locked myself in my room and carefully studied all the things that Uncle Chai had said.
Whether it is the artifacts he gave at the beginning, or about the golden treasures underground, everything will cause a sensation in the rivers and lakes.
I found that Wan Xiaolong's strength was not enough to protect Uncle Chai, and he should seek the intervention of more important people.
I called Mr. Jin alone, and he had already taken this matter to heart, and then asked me to tell Jin Hao that Uncle Chai's safety issues were all handled by Jin Hao.
I took this burden off my shoulders, and my shoulders suddenly lightened a lot.
"Ye Tian, you are really asking for your own hardship, this matter would have been easier to solve, I can find a spiritualist for you-"
Mr. Jin's words were full of ridicule, maybe he thought that these things were trivial things, but no one in Bianliang City could do it, so he could only ask him for help.
I thought of my blood feud, and when the words came to my lips, I swallowed them back.
"Ye Kai, according to what you said, Uncle Chai is a treasure, and the treasure will always be excavated one day, don't forget your original purpose. You are a treasure hunter on the rivers and lakes, wouldn't it be ridiculous if you forgot your main business for the sake of human affection? β
His words were obviously a reminder to me not to treat Uncle Chai as a friend, but as a customer.
Through the phone, I could hear the indifferent side of his work, and now facing me and giving me face, if it were someone else, it would have become a different tone.
"Mr. Jin, thank you for everything you have done for Uncle Chai."
"Ye Tian, as I said just now, we are not doing things for people, but doing things for the sake of doing things. You have to figure out that this is fundamentally different, and if you want to make things happen, then give up the feelings of these mothers-in-law! β
Before the call ended, Mr. Jin instructed: "If you can find the underground gold treasure of Bianliang City, it will be a great thing. In the past, there has never been a young person who has soared into the sky, but it is quite possible that you can break this convention. β
Uncle Chai and I had two secret conversations in a row, and he told me that too many secrets of the family should be told and not taken underground.
He had already made an agreement with Xiaojuan that when Xiaojuan thought the time was right and they left together, he would tell me all these secrets and let me be his heir.
"Ye Tian, no matter what you do for me, for what purpose, even if you are a heinous bad person, help me meet Xiaojuan, I will thank you for the rest of my life."
I didn't continue to clarify, it was just a conjuring, not a real meeting, I didn't want to spoil his fun, for an old man in his twilight, he needed some warm comfort too much.
During the second secret conversation, Uncle Chai said that there was indeed something in the underground vault, and the specific amount could not be investigated, and he had some special clues, at least more than sixty percent of the certainty, to find the gold.
In his life, the most important thing is Xiaojuan, no matter how much gold there is, even if it is piled up into a mountain of gold, it is meaningless.
I feel more and more that Uncle Chai's dependence on Maichai has been very strong, and it seems that Maichai has hinted to him that only a summoner from Thailand can help him meet Xiaojuan, and any other force may not be able to do it, so what Uncle Chai said before must have been said to Maichai.
This made my position very awkward, and Uncle Chai's life became extremely fragile.
Previously, I had instructed Wan Xiaolong to monitor Maichai 24 hours a day, so as to prevent him from playing tricks and excluding us people and taking the greatest benefits from himself.
If you are not of my race, their hearts will be different, and I will never trust a summoner from Thailand.
People in the rivers and lakes, be careful to be able to sail a ship for ten thousand years, if you blindly believe in a foreigner, it would be too stupid.
According to my instructions, Wan Xiaolong sent all the surveillance footage to my mailbox for me to watch for myself.
On the surface, Maichai did not reveal any flaws.
He meditated for up to five hours every night, as if he were an old monk.
This is not normal, his sect no longer needs this kind of monotonous meditation, he must be using this moment to cover up his true purpose.
I entered the monitoring room, ordered the camera to zoom in, and pointed it at Maichai's face, and immediately realized that he was very likely to install a password sending device inside his teeth to transmit messages while meditating.
I also noticed that his chest and abdomen rose and fell a lot, which must be Thai ventriloquism, and he was able to speak with his stomach without the help of his lips and throat.
If Uncle Chai relies too much on it and tells him all the secrets in his heart, our plan will be over.
It's equivalent to just planting a big tree and letting Maichai pick all the peaches.
I didn't tell anyone, I just told Wan Xiaolong to step up surveillance.
He reported to me that more than a dozen super-rich people in Bianliang City had requested that Maichai also perform a spiritualist ritual in their villa area to relieve his family's longing.
I used this reason to go to Maichai, and told him by the way that this time I was very satisfied with his actions, and that I would add 20% to the remuneration payable.
Maichai smiled: "Mr. Ye, there is no need, you don't value money, and I am the same, I am just doing the right thing, so that an old man who has lost his wife can relive those sweet times." β
His expression was very sincere, and the light in his eyes also revealed the selfless openness of the Grand Duke.
If I hadn't looked closely at the surveillance footage, I might have believed his faΓ§ade, but now I know that the man who sat in front of me was a careerist and a conspirator.
I sincerely thanked him, and at the same time hoped that he could relieve the troubles of the super-rich in Bianliang City.
I will let Wan Xiaolong be responsible for his safety problems, and there will definitely be no accidents.
Here in Maichai, I deliberately gave him the illusion that he had conquered everyone without any worries.
"Mr. Ye, thank you for your trust, I am very willing to do these things for everyone, and dedicate all what I have learned in my life to the society."
Everything he said was full of positive energy, but what he was saying in ventriloquist and who he was connecting with was what I was most concerned about.
It was in this room that I felt the smell of ambergris he had brought from Thailand, very strong, with an eerie smell of water.
"Iron line fishing for gold ao-" This is the name of the layout of Maichai.
He laid the bait and waited for Uncle Chai's golden crow to take the bait.
