1717 New American Empire

After catching Wood, a big fat man, Xiao Lin will naturally not waste it. If he wants to maximize Wood's value, of course he must find out all about Wood's identity and background. Just after the battle, Xiao Lin sent a few clever soldiers to ride on him.

The car caught up with Ijik. As a weapon for detecting the enemy's situation and surveying the terrain, the Night Owl was naturally equipped with a Polaroid camera. As soon as Ijik looked at the photo, he knew that Wood was the sworn enemy who had been against him and relied on his sister to gain power.

The most valuable information in this is that Ijik’s sister is the woman who is the son of Charlie’s most trusted old housekeeper, and may even be his fiancée. It seems that this relationship is a bit convoluted and of no use. But in detail, Wood and

There is not much distance between him and Charlie. In terms of military affairs, Charlie is not a military sage like Sun Bin who has been famous throughout the ages. In terms of government affairs, he is not like Zhuge Kongming, who dedicated his whole life. There are usually many things, so naturally he needs to find someone to discuss.

And some complaints and dissatisfaction will also be revealed in front of close people. And this close person may be a relative or a lover, but this old housekeeper must be one of them. Otherwise, it would not be possible.

He will become Charlie Mill's general butler and personal person. Naturally, these things were also found out by Ijik, a local snake in Boston.

Since establishing a hostile relationship with Charlie Mill, the company must find out all the British trends. The most important of these is to find out Charlie's arrangements and plans. However, since suffering losses at the hands of the company three times in a row, Charlie has learned

Come on, the intelligence confidentiality work is very good. The spies sent by the company cannot enter Charlie's closest circle and can't get any valuable information at all.

Even some families who had done business with the company were squeezed out by Charlie without any notice. Originally, the colony had more than 50,000 troops, which were used to fight the Yanhuang Trading Company. If the company mobilized 30,000 people, there would be no chance of winning. However,

However, he only relied on the nearly 20,000 troops in his own hands. He also tried his best and wasted money to transfer 30,000 Hessian mercenaries from Europe.

If the French were not a greater threat now, I am afraid that at least 30,000 elite troops would come to the company to attack. In order to prevent the company from being unable to know Charlie's arrangements in the future, causing the company to be unprepared and suffer huge losses, it is necessary to bribe someone around Charlie.

, at least to obtain general intelligence information. And Wood's identity can be used completely. The old housekeeper's son is a playboy, and Wood can definitely get some information from him by relying on connections and money.

There is even no need for the old butler's son to take the initiative to inquire. This man loves to gossip when he is old. He has not been specially trained to keep confidentiality, nor can he keep it. Although the old butler is a professional butler trained by a big family, but Charlie

When he met the old housekeeper, he was not an important member of the Mill family. When he was originally sent to the colony, there was some intention of exiling him.

This also means that the old butler was not the outstanding one among the butlers trained by the Mill family, but was even from the last echelon. Charlie later struggled on his own, and the Mill family gradually saw his value and gradually increased their investment.

Pushing him to the position of colonial governor. However, the old butler did not return to receive training. The Mill family, it should be said that almost none of the British today have this concept.

Although I know not to go out and talk nonsense, I still feel a little unnatural when chatting with my son at home. Xiao Lin even thought of the excuse for Wood, that is, knowing Charlie's arrangements in advance will give him more loopholes.

If you can exploit him, you will have more opportunities to make money. Next, it depends on whether Wood is worthy of peace. Xiao Lin feels that Wood must be eliminated first, and then he can be bribed.

Under the guidance of Xiao Lin's thinking, Wood was in trouble along the way. For a whole week, he got up earlier than a chicken and went to bed later than a dog. Although he had no shortage of food and clothing, he had to do heavy work every day.

, riding a fully loaded three-wheeled bicycle. There were Night Owl warriors sitting on both sides. If he found out that he was thinking wrongly, he would slap him. Wood was so regretful that his intestines were blue, and he didn't know if he was blinded by lard in the first place.

How dare you provoke such a terrible enemy.

Fortunately, a week later, Wood's miserable life ended when he passed the last British gathering point. When he was taken into Xiaolin's marching tent by two soldiers, an interrogation was already waiting for him in the tent. According to 21

The layout of the interrogation room of the Century Police Department. Wood was pushed onto a chair fixed to the ground, and his hands and feet were tied to the chair with handcuffs. As soon as Xiaolin moved the desk lamp, a strong light shone on Wood's face.

superior.

Wood, who had been busy for a day, was irradiated by the strong light and fell asleep for most of the time. There was a long silence, and there was no sound in the tent. Xiao Lin and several soldiers exerted their momentum with all their strength and stared at Wood fiercely. Wood was frightened.

His legs were trembling, and he thought he was going to be killed. Seeing the wet look on the big man Wood, Xiao Lin finally spoke.

"Little fat man, I heard that the son of the old housekeeper next to Charlie Mill is your brother-in-law."

"Who? Oh, you are talking about Governor Charlie, yes, you are right."

"Little fat man, do you know who we are now?"

"Naturally, I know."

"I won't talk nonsense to you. There is no room for turning around between us and Charlie Mir. You and Charlie are close, so naturally we are also enemies. Besides, you took the initiative to offend us this time. Now what is before you

There are only two ways, and this one is that we kill you, throw the body wherever you want, and then never care about it again..."

"I choose two, I choose two!"

Before Xiao Lin could finish his words, Wood, who was afraid of death, had already answered first. Wood originally started out as a businessman, and his life was not easy when he was a child. He finally managed to get out of his own way, and his family's life was better. He also had several lovers.

, two of them are still aristocratic ladies that he never dared to think about before. This great day has not passed long, and if he dies, he believes that these things will be taken away by Charlie, and his in-laws will be ruthless.

Therefore, he must live. Even after a week of hard work, he did not think about seeking death and survival. This is why Xiao Lin was not annoyed, but was happy for Wood's performance. A person who is greedy for life and afraid of death is the best to control

of.

"Don't worry, listen to me slowly. This is just to do things for me. I need you to get Charlie's information from your brother-in-law. Other than that, I don't want anything from you. I don't want your business either."

No matter what, I don’t want the money. Moreover, as long as the information is valuable, I will also receive generous monetary rewards.”

"this......"

"I believe that you have paid a lot of money to reach this point in your business. At least you handed over the normal profits. I wonder how much Charlie Mir got?"

"Well, 40%, my brother-in-law and the others took one layer."

"Yeah, think about it, whether it's purchasing goods, raising slaves, running sales, or negotiating business, they don't do anything. They just provide you with protection and deter your competitors. You have to take care of those soldiers, too.

It's all done with a little effort by them. There is no cost at all in ordering the army, but half of your income will be divided."

"I......"

Xiao Lin's words seemed to be like magic. Wood had not felt it before, but now he realized that he was also resentful about having to take out half of his income. He was paying all the costs, and as the business grew,

The more slaves he acquires and the more younger brothers he raises, the greater his costs will be. And his income will only be half. From a lowly trader to the top gangster in the British colonies, his income is only one percent more than before.

times.

Although it is enough for consumption, in fact, the level of luxury in life may not be better than that of a baron. The two aristocratic female lovers are also married, and they will be taken care of by him when the family fails. If they have the other half of the income, then

His life can even reach the level of a powerful earl. Because half of it is pure profit.

By relying on Xiao Lin, although he couldn't get back the other half, he could still generate income. He naturally knew something about Yanhuang Trading Company. The company's products were very popular in the colonies and the prices were very expensive. If he wasn't afraid of annoying Charlie, he would

He would also choose to smuggle the company's products. Therefore, he knew that the company must be very rich. Xiao Lin said there was a huge reward, so it couldn't be fake.

"Here, I wonder how much money you can afford?"

"Haha, don't worry. Each piece of information is worth five thousand pounds as a base. However, you can't top it up with junk information like eating, drinking, and diarrhea. It must be of sufficient value. Moreover, I can also purchase the slaves in your hands. The price

It’s the same as Ijik’s. If you want the company’s products, I can provide them to you.”

"Okay! I did it."

Wood thought about it and thought it could be done. In order to protect his life, he agreed. However, Xiao Lin did not finish the conditions. He was not stupid. What if Wood was not controlled and he returned to Boston and refused to admit his debt. So,

Xiao Lin directly called in four elite soldiers. They were all the smartest among the Night Owls. They would personally protect and monitor Wood from now on.

Wood could only agree, and Xiao Lin smiled, walked up to him, and began to unlock the handcuffs. Suddenly, before Wood could react, Xiao Lin stuffed a pill into his hand.

"This, what is this?"

"Haha, since you know that I am an Indian, you naturally know that we have something magical in our hands. This is a kind of medicine. There are scavengers inside and mud on the outside. The mud can make the scavengers fall into dormancy, but it can only

Hold on for a month. If you don't take the antidote next month, the scavengers will wake up and bite your internal organs. I will put the antidote in their hands. As long as you do your job well, the antidote will be given to you on time.
