Chapter 1314 By Your Means
"it is good."
Before Lan Qin could finish speaking, Jiang Xiaochuan responded crisply.
He raised his hand to pat Big Black's head, then turned and left.
Dahei immediately followed, staying close to Jiang Xiaochuan's side, completely suppressing its previous ferocity and hostility.
This decisive attitude caught Lan Qin off guard.
Just leave like that?
She fully expected Jiang Xiaochuan to press for details; faced with such a secret matter, no one could help but be curious.
But the Jiang Xiaochuan in front of me is acting very strangely.
Lan Qin was filled with doubts. Looking at that resolute figure, she subconsciously said, "Wait!"
Jiang Xiaochuan paused, then slowly turned around: "Is there anything else, Miss Lan?"
"Why...why are you here?"
Lan Qin's gaze was fixed on Jiang Xiaochuan, as if trying to see through his disguise and find out what was really going on.
According to the information from Sifanglou, Jiang Xiaochuan is definitely not someone who is easy to talk to.
It's impossible that they actually listened to their own advice.
"This is it."
Jiang Xiaochuan smiled faintly, "My home is in Shitou Village at the foot of the mountain. Is it surprising that I'm here near Qianyan Mountain?"
Upon hearing this, Lan Qin immediately understood and frowned in annoyance.
How could she forget that the investigation report clearly stated that Jiang Xiaochuan was from Shitou Village?
I was so focused on figuring out his purpose that I overlooked this most basic information.
That makes sense.
Jiang Xiaochuan probably sensed the unusual aura of that group of people, which is why he chased them all the way to this deep mountain.
Even so, she still didn't believe that Jiang Xiaochuan would just leave like that.
Having already chased them all this way and happened to run into them, there was no reason for them to leave empty-handed.
There's definitely something fishy going on here.
Perhaps he's planning to be the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, waiting to reap the benefits!
In a flash, Lan Qin changed her mind.
Since we can't figure out Jiang Xiaochuan's true intentions, rather than letting him lurk in the shadows, we might as well take the initiative to win him over and use him for our own purposes.
In fact, she guessed correctly; Jiang Xiaochuan had just seen the route map on the parchment scroll in her hand.
His feigned departure was not an act of giving up, but rather a plan to avoid a direct confrontation with her and instead take a more covert route to reach his target!
"If I remember correctly, Young Master Jiang seems to run a fairly large security company in Beijing? His business capabilities... have an excellent reputation."
Lan Qin abruptly changed the subject, suddenly throwing out an unrelated question.
"What? Miss Lan is interested in our company? But this is probably not the best place to discuss business."
Jiang Xiaochuan raised an eyebrow, a hint of wariness flashing in his eyes.
The security company is just starting out, and it wouldn't be a good thing if it were targeted by Sifanglou at this time.
"We're here to discuss business."
Lan Qin took a step forward, closing the distance, and looked intently at Jiang Xiaochuan:
"I would like to formally hire Young Master Jiang, and your... partner, as temporary security consultants for this operation to ensure my safe arrival at the target location and a smooth return."
"As long as the mission is completed, the reward... can be settled at three times your highest standard."
"I remember your security company has a rule that as long as the client's needs are reasonable, the situation is special, and the compensation meets the standards, you cannot refuse to accept the commission without a valid reason, right?"
Lan Qin had no time to care what Jiang Xiaochuan was thinking.
For some reason, his loyal followers were all kept under surveillance by the owner of Sifanglou.
She went to great lengths to sneak out in order to steal the treasure.
Although she was somewhat confident in her ability to steal the item, she was still worried about the possibility of failure.
Not only her, but even her die-hard supporters could not escape death.
"good."
Jiang Xiaochuan remained silent for a moment, a cold smile creeping across his face.
He initially didn't want to pay attention to this kind of moral blackmail, but then he thought that it was a good opportunity to find out the truth.
So he followed up by asking, "Since it's a hiring process, I need to ask, what is the objective of this operation?"
"Understanding the details of the mission is essential to ensuring safety, and this is also a principle of our security company."
"it is good."
Lan Qin had no choice but to tell the truth, "You must have noticed that the group of people in front are Jiang Zhenyue's men."
“Even Jiang Zhenyue himself was among them.”
"As for the purpose..."
She paused deliberately, giving Jiang Xiaochuan a knowing look, her words carrying a hidden meaning.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaochuan's pupils suddenly contracted.
He never expected that the ruthless group in front of him was actually Jiang Zhenyue's men!
So the real secret is hidden deep within Qianyan Mountain!
That old fox Jiang Zhenyue, the information he released before was not only fake about the location, but also about the timing of the operation.
"You're not lying to me?" Jiang Xiaochuan stared intently at Lan Qin.
After all, even Xuanjizi was very secretive about the people of Sifanglou. As far as he knew, apart from the mysterious master of Sifanglou, Lan Qin was the most respected.
She could reveal such a core secret so easily, which made him suspicious.
"of course."
Lan Qin looked up to meet his gaze, a confident smile playing on her lips.
"If you don't believe me, you can follow me. If you find that I've said anything untrue, you can turn around and leave. I won't stop you."
"I'm busy."
Jiang Xiaochuan refused without hesitation.
He has never been one to eagerly accept such "good things" that come his way.
Moreover, Lan Qin's thoughts are unpredictable; who knows what schemes are hidden behind this?
"you!"
Lan Qin's smile froze, and her tone became somewhat exasperated, "Don't you care about the publicity when the security company opened?"
"Are our promises to be kept and our commitment to accepting reasonable requests just empty words?"
"You can go and promote it."
Jiang Xiaochuan replied indifferently, "I don't care."
Lan Qin was speechless, and took a deep breath to suppress her anger. Knowing that forcing her was useless, she immediately changed her strategy and said in a deep voice, "Fine, I'll give you a promise."
"As long as you help me complete this operation successfully, I will help you settle your grudges with the Huangfu family completely."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaochuan felt a surge of emotion.
Previously, he had tried everything to fight against the Huangfu family, but to no avail.
Now that the Situ family is standing in his way, he is no longer afraid to confront the Huangfu family head-on.
Unexpectedly, Sifanglou took the initiative to deliver such a substantial offer.
Jiang Xiaochuan looked Lan Qin up and down again. "Do you think you can settle the score between me and the Huangfu family?"
