Zhang Cheng looked at Diao Dacheng and said in a deep voice: "Dacheng, you have to choose suitable people to manage these properties on your behalf. It is estimated that within a month, this general will go to Shangbei Road to take up his post.
You go with me first to see what suitable businesses there are, and you can start doing them. From now on, you can follow me and do all kinds of business. "
Zhang Cheng looked at Diao Dacheng, who looked embarrassed, and continued: "What you need to pay more attention to is to help me collect more information from all parties in the business. There are all kinds of people in wine shops, gambling houses, and gourmet courtyards." Waiting for a gathering place,
You also need to select people who are smart and honest in their work to serve as stewards and servants everywhere. One is to collect information from guests, the other is to invite those specific people to come and test their voices, and the third is to serve as our side. The place where information is transmitted;
Therefore, in the next few years, businesses will be started in all the big cities and forts in Xuan Town. The money earned will belong to you. If your capital is insufficient, I can also buy shares. "
"But one thing you have to remember is that you should do less lending in the future. If you lend money to someone who really needs it, you can't charge too high an interest rate, and you can't force them to sell their children.
Furthermore, in the Goulan Courtyard, good girls cannot be forced into prostitution. Everything must be done voluntarily. Although you are responsible for running the business outside, as time goes by, the world will know your relationship. If you ruin the reputation of the general, I will not spare you. "
"Yes, yes, everything is subject to the general's orders. I don't know much about this intelligence gathering and investigation. Whether the general can send someone over, I will definitely do my job sincerely and do my best."
The more Diao Dacheng listened, the more frightened he became, and in the end he was even more delighted. Not only could he continue to operate wine shops, gambling houses, Gou Lan Yuan and other industries, but he was also expected to expand the industry to various castles in the Xuan Mansion.
Moreover, spying on information for Zhang Cheng was something that only core people could handle. While he was delighted, he couldn't help but feel frightened. First of all, he was not used to it and was afraid that he would not handle it well.
Secondly, he was also afraid that Zhang Cheng was testing him, so he took the initiative to ask Zhang Cheng to send someone over and just obey his orders.
"Well, it's not urgent. You go back and clean up your subordinates first. Get rid of those whose bad habits are hard to change. Leave some loyal and clever people to work, as well as those who have practical skills. If If you can find it, you can also keep it in case of emergency;
You need to remember one thing. From now on, as a general, you are not allowed to do things that oppress good people. Except for targeting specific people, spying on intelligence for the general, and when executing orders, you are allowed to do so in any form. "
Diao Dacheng hurriedly stood up and knelt down and said: "Young man, you must obey the general's orders. From today on, you will never do anything that is harmful to nature. From now on, you will follow the general's orders and work for the general wholeheartedly."
Afterwards, the two discussed some details in the side hall, and Zhang Cheng even told Diao Dacheng to go directly to Chen Zhong for help when encountering problems.
After Diao Dacheng resigned, Chen Zhongcai said, "General, can you trust Diao Dacheng to do what he does?"
"Ha, look at his own performance. Now I just give him a chance. If he does well, he will really become a general. If he does things randomly or even half-heartedly, will the general take action to get rid of him?"
Zhang Cheng's face was cold and cold, and Chen Zhong felt a chill when he saw it. Zhang Cheng continued: "Chen Zhong, please arrange a few people during this time. Pay more attention to Diao Dacheng and see how other people in his town are doing." Is there any contact?"
"By the way, what do you think about putting Su Yiyang in Diao Dacheng's place to handle intelligence gathering?"
Chen Zhong was stunned. He and Zhang Cheng had met Su Yiyang for the first time yesterday. He was now practicing outside the city with Niu Sheng's team of bodyguards who stayed at night.
In addition, there were Shi Zhuzhu, Liu Youhao and others who also trained under Niu Sheng. Shi Zhuzhu was a good soldier. He was strong and could withstand beatings, and he also had the energy to refuse to admit defeat.
Chen Zhong estimated that in half a year, this boy would be a good soldier, but he always felt that he couldn't see through Su Yiyang and Liu Youhao. Their bodies and bones were generally thin, and Su Yiyang was no better than Liu Youhao.
But this Su Yiyang seems to have been really trained. Although he is not very strong, he is very slippery. His moves are often unexpected and very sinister. His eyes are always wandering around the weak parts of each person's body.
Moreover, as soon as Su Yiyang arrived in Niu Sheng's team, he talked about detectives and investigations in a clear and logical manner, especially the torture methods he mentioned, many of which Niu Sheng and others had never heard of.
Even the big monkey in his team, who was always known for his cruelty, respected Su Yiyang and often pestered him to discuss unheard-of torture methods.
Chen Zhong thought for a while and then said: "General, this Su Yiyang is unusual. He has some tricks. However, his origin is unknown. He only relies on his words. There is no evidence at all and cannot be fully believed.
In particular, this intelligence gathering is a core secret matter. How can we leave it to outsiders? I'm afraid it's inappropriate! "
Zhang Cheng stood up and walked around in the left side hall. After a moment, he faced the window and said in a deep voice: "If you use it, you won't be suspicious!"
Turning around, he said to Chen Zhong again: "I have just begun to build a camp and recruit troops. Only you, Chen Zheng, Guangda, Zhizhong and a few others can be regarded as my confidants. Just like Zhang Guodong, you can only A trustworthy person is not yet considered a confidant;
But if everything has to be entrusted to the confidants, how many people are available?
Is it possible that I have to wait three to five years for him to wait until everyone around him becomes his confidant before entrusting him with this important task?
Time waits for no one. I don’t have that much time. But if there are capable people, I can only rely on their talents and merit. I entrust you with the authority and use it without any doubt. If someone betrays me, are you and all the guards just eating for nothing? "
Chen Zhong was extremely shocked by Zhang Cheng's words. Although he had grown up in Zhang's family since he was a child and had followed Zhang Cheng for several years, their relationship was extraordinary, but today Zhang Cheng personally regarded him as a confidant. , or the first time.
He was even more amazed by Zhang Cheng's courage and courage. In his understanding, all the military generals trusted his confidants with everything. They had already formed their own factions and were connected through marriages, sworn vows, etc. to form one.
They control the servants through their relatives and confidants, and then use the servants as their confidants to hold some officers and soldiers hostage. This is the core combat power of each general. If this combat power is not lost, their strength will be intact and their status will be permanent.
Chen Zhong hurriedly bowed down and said: "Chen Zhong admires the general's courage and courage. Please rest assured, general. No matter who it is, if he dares to betray the general, even if he escapes into the palace, I will capture him. Disposal."
"Get up!"
Zhang Cheng looked at Chen Zhong, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Zhongzi, you have to look for candidates everywhere, but if you find a suitable person, write down his name and select him to join the guard team in the future. Your subordinates will at least expand in the future. To two hundred people.”
