Chapter 14 - 015 - Trouble Comes One After Another (Request for Recommendation Ticket)
Jiang Dali's gaze flickered slightly, "Did you get this information from higher up? Do you know who from Dragon Gate Escort Agency has come? What exactly did they say up there?"
Seeing his composure, Xiong Ba felt somewhat embarrassed and calmly said, "Yes, our superiors are the Li Family of Hui City County, a prestigious wealthy household. It's always the Li Family who instructs us on what to do.
In return, for many years, Black Wind Village has never been besieged by officials, and the local powers know our background too and don't dare provoke us rashly. The Li Family also often provides us with weapons, money, and other resources.
What we need to do is to take on tasks issued by the Li Family, handling matters that are inconvenient for them.
Originally, only I and the second-in-command knew about this arrangement.
Now that you are in charge, I must of course inform you.
This task commanded by the Li Family, we took it on tough last time, and now it has paid off, as we're dealing with the Dragon Gate Escort Agency."
Jiang Dali replied, "What's there to panic about? Didn't I play the lead role last time we faced the Dragon Gate Escort Agency? Now that I'm in charge, they would have to come to me first."
Xiong Ba's old face reddened upon hearing this.
Indeed, last time it was he and Life-stealing Scholar who were dishonorable, neither daring to defy the Li Family's orders nor willing to offend the Dragon Gate Escort Agency too grievously.
Thus, such deadly offensive tasks were bravely undertaken by Jiang Dali, while the two of them happily took credit without facing risks.
