Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 261 - 126 Wu Zhong: What? The hero you mentioned is

"Hmm? What?"

Chen Jie looked over and saw a small jade bottle, from which wafted the delicate fragrance of an elixir.

"Muscle Relaxing Pills?"

Zhou Chu said, "I originally intended to save two for Hu Zi, but my talent is too poor. I had to take three to break through my realm, and only one is left now. Keeping it is useless, and giving it to Hu Zi is perfect since he will likely need it."

"This!"

Chen Jie was moved, how could he not understand what Zhou Chu ant?

Zhou Chu truly treated him and Hu Zi like brothers.

You know, Muscle Relaxing Pills, one could sell for at least five to six thousand silver taels in the black market.

They were practically priceless; you couldn’t buy them anywhere.

Such an amount of money, Zhou Chu didn’t want it but was willing to give it to Hu Zi.

Chen Jie didn’t know about the relationship between Zhou Chu and Hu Zi, but he understood that Zhou Chu didn’t give it directly to Hu Zi but asked him to pass it on, clearly showing their relationship ant a lot to him, it was a matter of giving him face.

Chen Jie looked at the Muscle Relaxing Pills and felt very touched.

He said, "I don’t have money to give you, but these would fetch at least five to six thousand silver taels in the black market!"

Hearing this, Zhou Chu said, "Five to six thousand silver taels? Ha, if I sell it to my father-in-law, easily ten thousand taels, believe it or not?"

"I don’t have ten thousand taels for you!"

Chen Jie said.

Zhou Chu said, "Ha, then you owe it, and when you have it, give twenty thousand taels."

"You really know how to drive a bargain, huh? The mont it’s in my hands, the price doubles."

Chen Jie teased, and Zhou Chu said, "When you beco a rich man, you think this will matter?"

Chen Jie said, "I am really poor."

Zhou Chu said, "Okay, you’re poor. But Jiu Si, let put it this way, aren’t you planning to take this opportunity to divide so of the power held by the big brother and second brother?"

After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Can’t divide it."

Hmm?

Chen Jie said, "Those three streets, not to ntion Third Brother’s Peace, First Brother’s and Second Brother’s Yongchang, they’ve been managing them for ten years, from top to bottom, they are all their people. If we want in, unless they completely lose power, there’s no way we can enter."

"Besides, we have very few people we can use right now. Our foundation is too shallow. We can’t swallow a fat man in one bite. So, being able to take over the Big Vegetable Market and securing Nan Lake is enough for us."

Hearing this, Zhou Chu said, "Hmm, that makes sense, those managers seem easy to talk to, but each of them is no pushover."

Chen Jie said, "But this ti, we have gained a lot, it’s like White Tiger Hall finally getting a strong footing."

As they talked, on the other side, several managers who were summoned rushed hastily to their respective masters’ residences.

At Feng Xuan’s mansion.

Feng Xuan was lounging comfortably on a couch, served by two maids, and asked the manager standing below, "What did Fifth Brother say?"

"Reporting to the master, Chen Jiusi was sensible, didn’t aim to seize power, but let everything remain as is, and even ntioned that if there’s anything unclear, don’t ask him but co directly to the master."

"He even said that after a month, he would return the power to the master; he just wants no trouble for this month."

Feng Xuan narrowed his eyes and asked, "What about Nan Lake and Fourth Brother’s Big Vegetable Market?"

"The Big Vegetable Market will continue to be managed by Ding San, as for Nan Lake, it has been given to Zhou Chu."

Feng Xuan’s gaze slightly hardened, "This Fifth Brother, he has so tricks."

"Master? Chen Jiusi clearly knows the severity, where is he formidable?"

Feng Xuan looked at him and said, "What do you know? Chen Jiusi knows he doesn’t have enough people under him to swallow a fat man in one bite, so he didn’t make a move but showed weakness to us. If you really think he’s soone you can easily handle, then you are the fool."

"Ah, yes, master."

Feng Xuan said, "By the way, how is the investigation into Fourth Brother’s matter?"

"Master, there are no clues yet, but Chen Jiusi seems to be preparing to investigate."

Feng Xuan said, "Oh, that’s good, keep an eye on him."

After finishing his instructions, Feng Xuan waved his hand, "Go, let the people continue their work, and be respectful to Fifth Brother."

"Yes!"

The sa conversation was happening at Zheng Chuan’s residence.

"Hmm, Chen Jiusi said that?"

Zheng Chuan looked at the manager below, who replied, "Exactly this, he doesn’t intend to ddle in the affairs of our streets."

Zheng Chuan nodded, "It seems he is also astute, knowing the principle that greed can lead to indigestion."

After that, he turned to the manager, "What about Fourth Brother’s matter?"

"Uh, per your instructions, we are investigating it."

Zheng Chuan nodded, "Good, investigate thoroughly and see if there’s any trace."

"Yes."

...

Thus, while Chen Jie took over White Tiger Hall, the entire guild was in a frenzy, handling a complex sh of interests.

The internals of a big guild were extrely chaotic.

However, Chen Jie had a clear goal and didn’t feel any difficulty.

While Chen Jie and Zhou Chu were chatting, Uncle Fu ca to say that Peng Shizhong wanted to see him.

Chen Jie quickly arrived at Peng Shizhong’s bedroom, where Peng Shizhong was sitting cross-legged on a bed, nurturing his injuries with his inner strength.

Seeing Chen Jie arrive, Peng Shizhong said, "Jiu Si, sit."

Chen Jie sat down, and Peng Shizhong said, "This ti, I called you here to pass the Twelve Eagle Guards to you. Fourth Brother’s matter still needs to be thoroughly investigated; we can’t let Fourth Brother have died in vain."

Chen Jie said, "Yes, foster father, I will do my utmost to investigate and avenge Fourth Brother."

"Good, that’s the spirit."

Peng Shizhong spoke then stood up, stretching his limbs, "By the way, do you have any leads for the investigation?"

Hearing this, Chen Jie said, "I do!"

"Oh? Where will you start?"

Chen Jie said, "The iron mines."

"Hmm? Iron mines?!"
