Tan Bin was very curious about the "standing cabinet" in the car along the way. He knew that it was a new thing for enjoyment, and it could keep the room warm in winter and cool in summer.
It's just too expensive, and it also uses pan-spiritual stones for energy consumption. It's too expensive to use, and he can't afford it.
But speaking of it, this thing is really easy to sell in the City of Fusi. His fleet has unloaded nearly fifty units from the ship these days, right? The average price of one unit is 30,000 taels, which is equivalent to 1,500,000 taels of silver. This amount of money is a bit staggering to Tan Bin.
I heard from people in the carriage shop that this thing called "air conditioner" is the top product of a new business. The owner is Yu Wenhe, a very famous businessman. But Tan Bin agreed with this statement on the surface but sneered at it in his heart.
What ability does a businessman have to make this kind of money? Too long to live, right?
There are hundreds of so-called construction workers who came with these air conditioners. Tan Bin had received an order before these people arrived, saying that he was required to do his best to help a group of newly arrived spies settle down in the city of Fushou. Isn't it just some of these hundreds of people that I'm talking about.
Therefore, Tan Bin is certain that Master Shen made this so-called air conditioner. Others are always fascinated by money, so how can they understand Master Shen's deep meaning?
In addition to these air conditioners, which were sought after by various forces in the city, and the spies who followed these air conditioners into the city, there was also a new task following them, and the task was "urgent" and needed to be completed as soon as possible.
The text description is very short, which is "dig out the roots and feet of these people", and then there are five portrait paintings.
Looking for someone again? Although Tan Bin doesn't really like this kind of task, he doesn't have the right to refuse. The main reason why I don't like it is because searching for people requires help from downlines. Currently, the spies that Blackwater has infiltrated into the City of Fusei are still in the state of being "new to your place." It's not easy to have a trustworthy informant.
Among the people Tan Bin has come into contact with so far, the only one who is suitable for training as an informant is the bloody deacon of the bloody sect who "helped" him once before. His surname is Zhang and his full name is Zhang Chong.
Since that time, Tan Bin would find Zhang Chong out for a drink every now and then whenever he was in the city of Fusi.
The two of them got to know each other quite well after going back and forth, and Tan Bin also learned a lot of information about Wusi City from Zhang Chong's mouth during the chat. Even if it's just some common sense stuff, it's enough to fill in the large gaps in Blackwater's knowledge of the City of Death.
For example, there are no flower houses in the city. The reason is simply that the Hehuan Sect, one of the three leaders, is disgusted with the Flower House, a place that sells desires. They say it is inconsistent with their sect's philosophy, so they are not allowed to open the Flower House. Even if anyone in the city dares to engage in prostitution, They will all be suppressed by the Hehuan Sect.
So on two occasions, Tan Bin led Zhang out of the city of Fusei, and found a flower house in a small town near the border to vent their anger.
Tan Bin has his own way of judging people. He knows very well that although Zhang Chong often boasts loudly after drinking, in fact Zhang Chong is just a bad guy in the city of Fusui. The only thing that made Tan Bin look at this man differently was that Zhang Chong was born and raised in Wusi City.
Zhang Chong's parents were casual cultivators. By chance, they came to the City of Fushou to make a living, and finally met and got together. However, they both died in an accident, leaving Zhang Chong, who was young at the time. And Zhang Chong did not become an abandoned child because of his parents' relationship. Instead, he was adopted by the force before his parents. After being taught the practice method, Zhang Chong was not kicked out because of his poor talent. He was given a leisurely job and has been working there until now. .
So although Zhang Chong is not very capable, his status is not high, and he doesn't even have any significant backers, this guy looks familiar! No matter where he is in the city, he knows everything, and he also knows a lot of rumors and gossip that others don't know. When chatting, he talks about whatever comes to mind, and he is not very strict about what he says.
Tan Bin finally decided to use Zhang Chong as a breakthrough point and develop him into his first informant.
After drinking two or three kilograms of wine, things turned out not to be as Tan Bin expected, except for an accident.
As soon as Tan Bin opened his mouth, Zhang Chong laughed and said that he had long felt that Tan Bin was unusual. How could an ordinary coach and horse dealer have so much money to always treat him to food and drinks? And invite him out of town to play with women?
"Isn't it just that I want to know about the situation in Waishi City? Among all the powerful forces in the old Jing Dynasty, who wouldn't want to add sand to Waishi City? If you just stop someone on the street, there is a high probability that they will take advantage of a certain force and sell it. I have received the news. This is not a big shameful matter. Hehe, I was wondering how long you would hold it in, but I didn’t expect to ask now. "
Zhang Chong's words made Tan Bin, who was originally very calm, a little overwhelmed. It took him a while to react and asked: "Deacon Zhang, are you saying that you already knew that I had another purpose for approaching you? "
"Of course. You are very covert and eloquent. I really think you are a good person and can make friends. But I also know how much I weigh. A mere errand boy is not worthy of your concern. .Besides, given your ability, I’m afraid that the status of “leader” is all false, right?
Tsk tsk, don’t even think about taking action. Although it is common for a person to die in Wusi City, I am a member of Sankuiyuan. Even if I am just an errand, I am still a member of Sankuiyuan. If I die, I must give an explanation. Even if you can handle it, it's still troublesome, isn't it?
I can help you a lot. Inquiring about information, looking for people, helping with introductions, you name it, I can find a solution for you. Of course, you have to afford the price. "
Tan Bin dissipated the murderous intention in his body. Although he was no match for Zhang Chong, the opponent could not survive in the small courtyard he had arranged. As long as he moved his fingers, he could kill the opponent.
However, it is true that as Zhang Chong said, killing him will cause some trouble later, which is not in Heishui's interests. But are you really talking about cooperation with Zhang Chong? It always makes Tan Bin feel a little awkward. Anyway, this is the first time someone has actively suggested "cooperation" to him.
Tan Bin calmed down, put on a smile again, and said, "Deacon Zhang is quite upright. To be honest, he really scared me. But I can't make the decision in this matter. I wonder if you can give me some time?"
"Of course. I won't ask you what kind of force you are, nor will I ask you what you want to do, nor will I publicize the affairs between you and me. Even if we don't reach an agreement this time, we can still be friends."
Tan Bin nodded, said "Wait a moment", then stood up and left the table to hurriedly report the situation here to Fengri City.
Although the news was urgent, it still had to be relayed, verified, and finally reported by Qianli Yin, so it took most of the day to go back and forth.
However, Zhang Chong was not anxious at all and just sat at the table drinking and bragging. It wasn't until late in the evening that Tan Bin got a reply from above: You can try to cooperate with him first, and if it doesn't work, kill him.
