"Big Brother Yun, I … I have something to talk to you about …"
During breakfast, Tie Xiaohu scratched his head for a long time as he stuttered to Ling Yun.
Seeing Tie Xiaohu turn from a two-meter-tall man into a shy lady, Ling Yun chuckled. "We're brothers, just tell me directly. Why are you thinking so much?"
In the past, Tang Meng and Tie Xiaohu spoke to Ling Yun naturally without any scruples. They treated Ling Yun like friends and brothers. However, as Ling Yun's performance became more and more outrageous, the way they looked at Ling Yun became more and more different. Even though their brotherly relationship became more sincere, there was an additional sense of reverence in their eyes.
Ling Yun understood that it was reverence that came from their bones. These two brothers looked at him as if he was a god. However, he didn't like this feeling. If this continued, they wouldn't be able to be friends anymore.
Whether it was Tang Meng or Tie Xiaohu, Ling Yun treated them like brothers who had gone through life and death together. Between the two of them, one was in charge of the legal side while the other was in charge of the underworld side. Up until now, Ling Yun had never asked about how much money Tang Meng had in his hands. He had also never looked at Green Dragon's assets and accounts.
On the night of the Qingming Festival, the three of them went through life and death together. In the eyes of others, the value of a person's life might be different. However, in the eyes of each person, their own life was the most important.
Ling Yun was indeed making Tang Meng and Tie Xiaohu work for him. To an outsider who didn't know what was going on, it seemed as though Ling Yun was high and mighty while Tang Meng and Tie Xiaohu were working for him wholeheartedly.
For example, on the night before the opening of Ling Yun's clinic, one of the five nouveau riches, Haozi, mentioned this. Even though he didn't say it explicitly, everyone could tell that Haozi was implying that Tang Meng was Ling Yun's dog.
However, only Ling Yun knew that the things Ling Yun made them do were the most meaningful to the three of them. They could bring the most benefits to the three of them!
A person could only do one thing at a time. Would he choose to eat, sleep, play cards, watch movies, chat online, or play games? Or would he choose to study, work, earn money, and cultivate?
For example, yesterday afternoon, Tang Meng and Tie Xiaohu followed Ling Yun to the Antique Market. How much did they earn? How much did Tang Meng's net worth increase by? Last night, in the wee hours of the morning, under Ling Yun's guidance, Tie Xiaohu had mastered the Raging Waves Internal Skill and successfully advanced to Houtian Realm Level Four. He had officially stepped into the world of cultivators and looked down on mortals from then on.
What did the five hedonistic sons do yesterday? What did I get this time? Dandan was still playing online games at home, Haozi and Brother Fei were still eating, drinking and having fun, and Chick was still flirting with his third-rate female celebrity. Although Abing had great ambitions, he couldn't find a chance to show off his skills.
Tang Meng and Tie Xiaohu naturally understood this as well. That was why they followed Ling Yun with all their hearts. They were at Ling Yun's beck and call. They were happy to be his chauffeur and to run errands because they knew that following Ling Yun would bring them a bright future!
Of the Seven Tigers of Qingshui, when the five hedonistic sons were still living a life of luxury, Tang Meng was already on equal footing with the most influential people in Qingshui City. This included the head of PetroChina, China Mobile, the four big banks … Song Zhengyang, Murong Wenshi, the Lord of Jade … He had followed Ling Yun for less than two months, but he was already miles ahead of the five hedonistic sons!
How exciting was this kind of life?
However, it was also because Ling Yun's performance was too heaven-defying that the two brothers were still mortals. They could not fear humans, but they would fear God. In their eyes, Ling Yun was a god-like existence that could not be blasphemed!
This kind of relationship had long surpassed the brotherhood and loyalty of friends. How could they still be on equal footing?
Tang Meng's character was there. His performance was still a little lacking. However, Tie Xiaohu was indebted to Ling Yun for teaching him. Both of them were friends on the surface, but in reality, they were master and disciple.
Therefore, Tie Xiaohu's respect and reverence for Ling Yun was simply immeasurable. He had long given his life to Ling Yun. If he could have another life, he would have given it to Ling Yun without hesitation!
Ling Yun understood the logic behind this, but he was powerless to change it. It was lonely at the top!
"Big Brother Yun … I-I don't want to be in charge of Green Dragon anymore. I feel that it's too tiring. I can't focus on my martial arts at all. I want to focus on my martial arts!
"Moreover, with my character, I can fight and fight with my life, but to let me manage such a huge business, it's really …"
Tie Xiaohu seemed to be really under pressure. He could not hold it in any longer and blurted it out in one breath.
After listening to Tie Xiaohu's story, Ling Yun laughed. He knew that letting Tie Xiaohu take charge of Green Dragon was indeed forcing a duck onto a perch. It was difficult for him.
That was because Green Dragon was not an ordinary underworld. It was a huge, complicated business group that wandered in the gray area. Its profits were shocking. The boss could easily earn at least three hundred million a year, and this did not include the status and influence that came with it.
This required a very strong and shrewd person. Not only did he have to understand the rules of the underworld, but he also had to know how to negotiate and manage. He also had to be steady and ruthless enough to control the hundreds of underlings of Green Dragon. He also had to have enough time and energy to deal with the matters of Green Dragon!
Tie Xiaohu was a martial arts fanatic. He only loved to fight and train. After seeing how strong Ling Yun was and how far he was getting from Green Dragon, he had even less desire to manage it.
Therefore, today, Tie Xiaohu took this opportunity to speak his mind.
"Alright, since you don't want to manage it, then find someone to replace you. Is there anyone suitable in Green Dragon?"
Ling Yun was very straightforward. He knew that Tie Xiaohu was really out of ideas.
"No, and I don't feel at ease handing it over to someone else …" Tie Xiaohu said with a frown.
"Hehe, Big Brother Yun, I think Tang Meng can definitely do this job. Why don't you let him be the boss of Green Dragon …" Tie Xiaohu said sneakily.
Ling Yun laughed out loud. "Tang Meng? Originally, he was really willing to go because of the three hundred million. But now, even if you beg him, he won't go! "
Of course, Ling Yun knew that Tang Meng was qualified to be the boss of Green Dragon. However, Ling Yun had a principle for Tang Meng, and that was not to let him get involved in the underworld.
Moreover, Ling Yun's clinic had received billions of yuan worth of assets. Yesterday at the Antique Market, he had gotten so many raw jade gemstones. Tang Meng was too busy to deal with all these things. He was already exhausted. How could he have the energy to manage Green Dragon?
The sudden windfall made Tang Meng dizzy. The most important thing in his mind now was how to turn the wealth in Ling Yun's hands into a huge profit chain as soon as possible. He had to let the money flow and generate more wealth. Anything else was out of the question.
However, Tang Meng was only an eighteen -year-old kid. Even though he was knowledgeable and smart, he was still too young and inexperienced. There was no way he could handle Ling Yun's wealth!
Ling Yun was confident that Tie Xiaohu wouldn't be the only one complaining to him. Tang Meng would come looking for him very soon.
"Xiaohu, bear with it for another ten days to half a month. I'll help you think of a solution when I'm free!" Ling Yun thought for a while as he looked at Tie Xiaohu who was staring at him helplessly.
Ling Yun didn't have a good candidate at the moment.
Tie Xiaohu grinned when he heard that he had to bear with it for another ten days to half a month. He was about to explode from the fact that Ling Yun was looking for his signature every day!
"Big Brother Yun, you have to be quick. I want to focus on my martial arts …" Tie Xiaohu begged with a bitter face.
"Alright, alright, I'll do it as soon as possible …" Ling Yun knew that Tie Xiaohu was at his limit. He could only nod and ask, "Xiaohu, you have to answer me seriously. Do you want to take the college entrance examination? Do you want to go to university?"
If Tie Xiaohu said yes, Ling Yun would definitely think of a way to get him into university. Even Yanjing University wouldn't be a problem.
Tie Xiaohu was so scared that he waved his hands and snorted. "I won't go even if I die! I won't take the college entrance examination either! "
"Big Brother Yun, I don't want to do anything now. I just want to focus on my martial arts. When you go to university in Beijing, I'll be your chauffeur …"
Ling Yun almost choked on his water when he heard that. He was speechless. "F * ck, you're really ambitious. You're going to be someone else's chauffeur instead of being the boss of Green Dragon …"
Tie Xiaohu chuckled. "I'm willing to be Big Brother Yun's chauffeur for the rest of my life!"
Even though Ling Yun was still laughing, his heart was warm. Of course, he didn't need Tie Xiaohu to be his chauffeur for the rest of his life. Once he reached Qi Cultivation Stage Four, he would be able to fly. Even though he couldn't fly too far in one go, it wouldn't be a problem for him to fly around Qingshui City twice.
"Since you don't want to take the college entrance examination, I won't worry about it for you. Just focus on your martial arts. I'll bring you to the pinnacle of martial arts!"
Tie Xiaohu was inexplicably touched when he saw that Ling Yun still cared about him, a useless student, despite being so busy all day.
It was worth dying a thousand times for a big brother like him.
"Big Brother Yun, I'll definitely work hard!" Tie Xiaohu was determined and excited.
"I believe you'll succeed!" Ling Yun said with a smile. His eyes were resolute and full of confidence.
Who should take over Tie Xiaohu's management of Green Dragon? However, Ling Yun started to worry again.
Ling Yun thought of Dao Yong, but he immediately ruled him out. He could tell that Dao Yong had lost his vigor. He only had the drive and the drive. Such a person wasn't useful.
Ling Yun couldn't think of a suitable candidate at the moment. He could only give up for now.
"Are you full?"
"Yes!"
"Let's go then. I'll go to school for lessons. You can go and do your own things. Oh right, if you want to cultivate, don't think about anything else. Go to Mansion Number One to cultivate. It's the fastest there!"
"Got it, Big Brother Yun."
The two of them got up and left as they spoke.
