Lost and Spy

Chapter 3479 My Loyalty
Anyone who has followed Meng Shaoyuan for a long time will know that this young master has two characteristics.

First, they are narrow-minded and vindictive.

Anyone who offends him will be in real trouble.

If he doesn't make you regret offending this living devil, then he is not Young Master Meng.

If he treated the brutal Japanese like this, what about others?
The second is to cover up one’s shortcomings.

To be honest, if you offend him, there may still be room for redemption.

But what if you offend his men?
Then you just stay at home and wish for the best.

He also has no fondness for Filipinos, but there is a key problem:

Gesoga was his man.

Well, even though he had never even seen what Gesoga looked like, Peng Bilan was definitely his.

But Gesoga is an employee of Peng Bilan's company.

Doesn't this indirectly mean that Gesoga is also his?

Therefore, no matter whether it was Tatako or Busaizong, from the moment they were targeted by him, the only thing they could do was to hope for the best.

Meng Shaoyuan picked up the phone: "This is Charles, ask Varnado to come to my place."

……

Varnado, then deputy director of the Manila Police Department, was in the meeting.

When he received the order from Colonel Charles to summon him, he immediately abandoned his men and ran out of the meeting room.

It left everyone dumbfounded.

But Varnado didn't care about that.

How did I get this position?
That's all because of Colonel Charles.

Without him, I wouldn't be where I am now.

So no matter when or where, even if he was sleeping in bed with his wife, in the middle of the night, as long as he received a call from Colonel Charles, he would immediately put everything aside.

Colonel Charles was everything to him!
……

"Colonel, you look very well."

After seeing Meng Shaoyuan, Varnado immediately said something complimenting.

"Please sit down." Meng Shaoyuan said lightly.

Then he took out another cigar from the cigar box and threw it to Varnado:
“It’s just been shipped from America.”

"Ah, thank you so much, Colonel."

Varnado was overjoyed and took the cigar respectfully.

Of course he knew that the colonel had not called him here just to let him taste the cigar: "Colonel, thank you for your summons. If there is anything I can do for you, please be sure to ask. It is my greatest honor to be able to serve you."

Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said, "Do you know someone called Busai Zong?"

"Busayon?" Varnado blurted out, "Of course I know him. This family has a certain status in Manila. His brother Ricot has already been included in the list of councilors that are being formed."

At this point, he secretly glanced at the colonel's expression, and then continued, "There are many people in his family who hold important positions. Therefore, even though he is only a small captain, he still has some power."

Varnado is a smart man.

He knew that since the colonel had asked about Busaizong, he should tell him everything he knew without waiting for him to ask further questions.

Meng Shaoyuan was very satisfied. What Varnado said was basically the same as what Peng Bilan reported to him.

"Colonel," Varnado asked cautiously, "Did Busaizong offend you in some way?"

"Yes, Mr. Deputy Chief."

As soon as Meng Shaoyuan said this, Varnado was immediately filled with righteous indignation: "This is outrageous. People like this should go to hell. We all see your kindness and great contributions to Manila. How can someone treat you like this?"

This flattery made even Young Master Meng feel sick.

However, Varnado immediately changed the subject: "From my personal point of view, I think such people need to be punished resolutely. However, the power of the Busaizong family is still quite large. If I rely solely on my own strength, I am afraid I will not be able to pose a substantial threat to him."

The reason why Meng Shaoyuan chose Varnado as the deputy director of the Manila Police Department was because he knew that this person was very smart.

When hiring people, we should not only hire loyal ones, but also smart ones: "You are right. I certainly won't let you fight alone."

"Colonel, thank you again for your understanding." Varnado said immediately, "Then you can give orders for the mission."

"I need to create some small problems." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "And as for your task..."

He told Varnado what needed to be done.

Varnado barely hesitated for a second: "Of course, Colonel, I'll do as you say, and I promise I won't let you down."

"Of course I trust your ability, Deputy Director Varnado." Meng Shaoyuan opened the drawer, took out a check, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Varnado: "This thing will be useful to you."

Varnado said quickly, "Colonel, how can I ask you for money for doing things for you?"

"No, I insist that you accept it." Meng Shaoyuan's voice left no doubt: "When implementing my plan, you will also need money. Your subordinates may be very loyal to you, but if they can be satisfied with money, they will be more loyal and responsible."

These words were meant entirely for Varnado to hear.

When employing people, one needs both authority and the ability to bribe them.

At least, what Meng Shaoyuan said was correct. If you can satisfy someone like Varnado financially, then he will work hard for you.

Sometimes, money really can buy loyalty.

Even if this loyalty is not so reliable.

"Then I won't refuse anymore."

Varnado put away the check and said, "Colonel, I have to tell you something from my heart. The luckiest thing in my life is meeting you. If it weren't for you, everything I have now would just be my fantasy.

Colonel, I don't know how long you will stay in Manila. You are an American and you will leave sooner or later. But I can assure you that as long as you are here, you will definitely get my loyalty, which is endless and unlimited. "

Your loyalty?

This loyalty is built on a certain level.

Meng Shaoyuan stood up and said, "I am also very grateful to hear your words here. Deputy Director Varnado, I like obedient and capable people. Perhaps, before I leave Manila, your position will be transferred, maybe."

This time, Varnado didn't thank him.

He knew that no matter how many words of thanks he said, it would not be as good as actually doing things for the colonel: "Yes, colonel, then, I will go and show my loyalty now!"
