Imperial henchmen? Never been struck by the sword of the Six Doors (a secret police agency).

"Let's go, I'll take you out for a walk." Li Junsu said, looking at the big white ball of dough in his arms and picking it up.

"Have you gotten heavier again?" Li Junsu asked, feeling Xue Ling's weight as he lifted her up.

Xue Ling let out a dissatisfied cry. She had been very careful to control her food intake, but now that she was in her growth period, she couldn't control it anymore.

"Okay, okay, no." Li Junsu carried Xue Ling and walked out of the Six Doors.

Xue Ling then rubbed against Li Junsu's chest with satisfaction.

There's no time left for martial arts practice in the afternoon, but there's nothing I can do about it since I broke the contract.

......

Three days later, early morning.

“Boss, I can see the mountain too.” Su An said as soon as he entered the hall.

"Really? That's impressive." Li Junsu nodded and praised Su An, who looked like he wanted praise.

Su sat down smugly.

"Don't be so smug. What kind of crappy mountain is yours?" Su An mocked.

Su An's mountain was actually six doors plus ravens circling overhead. Although it was only for a moment, Su An saw it at a glance.

outrageous.

His mountains and seas are ghost mountains and bone seas, where all ghosts submit and white bones form a carpet.

The meaning of mountains and seas determines where a person can go in the future.

Could this guy be part of the entire Eagle Mountain Dog Sea?

To become a veritable lackey of the imperial court?

“That’s not what I want,” Su Anhao retorted.

"So what exactly do you want?" Su An asked, relieved.

"I plan to treat the boss as my support," Su An said generously.

"You're hopeless! Don't force me to possess you!" Su An broke down; it would be better to be a lackey of the imperial court.

"Good morning, Lord Li." The voice outside interrupted the argument in Su An's mind, and the two of them looked outside at the same time.

Song Yang's smile never faded. As soon as he entered the hall, he bowed and clasped his hands, acting like a sycophant.

"The ledger." Li Junsu could tell from Song Yang's expression that these guys had chosen sides.

"Lord Li, please." Song Yang took out a stack of small account books from his sleeve and presented them with both hands.

Li Junsu took the ledger and began to read it.

Song Yang waited quietly below, while Su An sat upright, looking aloof and unapproachable.

"This guy is a bit worse than me, but he's still got striking features. How come his brain looks like it got squeezed in a door?" Su An thought helplessly.

Only he could come up with the idea of ​​relying on others.

Li Junsu flipped through the account books, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes.

"Cleaned up?" Li Junsu asked slowly, but his words were incoherent.

"Hmm." Upon hearing this, Song Yang lowered his head even further.

He knew Li Junsu was no ordinary person, but he never expected him to be able to discover even this.

"Switch this one with the outdated one," Li Junsu said, tapping the table lightly with his finger, his voice calm and unhurried.

"Lord Li is wise." Song Yang bowed his head and offered his compliments.

Li Junsu's tactic is the infamous last-place elimination system. Because this tactic is the best way to exploit others, many people hate it.

No one would like this tactic if it happened to them, not even these businessmen.

"Su An, invite Feng Fan and the other family heads over for some morning tea," Li Junsu said calmly, closing the ledger.

"Yes." Su An stood up and replied.

After Su An left, Li Junsu turned his attention to Song Yang.

"Sit down." Li Junsu gestured vaguely towards the seats below and spoke calmly.

Only then did Song Yang dare to stand up straight and sit down.

In the main hall of the Six Doors, Song Yang truly felt the oppressive aura emanating from Li Junsu.

The solemn hall and Li Junsu's imposing aura made him feel as if his head was about to say goodbye to his body at any moment.

Song Yang sat in his seat, not daring to utter a single polite word.

Time passed minute by minute.

......

"Lord Li." Feng Fan's humble voice came from outside the door.

"My lord, everyone is here," Su An said from behind.

"Have a seat," Li Junsu said, then glanced at Su An.

Su An turned and left to boil water.

With just a glance from Li Junsu, Su An could understand what he meant; this was the self-cultivation of a good subordinate.

The heads of the families took their seats one after another, with Song Yang and Feng Fan sitting on either side of them at the lower end.

"I believe your cooperation with the Six Doors has been very smooth and successful." Li Junsu took the hot water Su An brought and brewed tea with practiced ease.

"Yes, Lord Li is wise and mighty!" someone below began to praise.

The hall was very quiet, and the patriarch reluctantly shut his mouth.

"I offer you my friendship, but some of you don't seem to need it," Li Junsu said calmly as he brewed tea.

“So, this friend who doesn’t need my friendship, you’re out of the game.” Li Junsu handed Su An a teacup.

The hall fell silent once more.

Su An carried teacups and placed them one by one on the table next to the heads of the family.

The heads of the household quickly raised their hands and accepted the teacups.

“But I value friendship very much,” Li Junsu said, turning his teacup with a half-smile.

The heads of the households felt a slight dampness on their backs.

“Those family heads who didn’t receive my friendship, you can now receive this friendship.” Li Junsu opened the lid and blew on the tea.

Those family heads who initially had no share suddenly had a bright idea in their eyes.

"The Song family head will discuss these matters with you later," Li Junsu said calmly, taking a sip of tea.

"Let's just let the unpleasantness pass," Li Junsu said with a smile, putting down his teacup.

"Yes, Lord Li is magnanimous and doesn't hold grudges. I also bear some responsibility. I will definitely keep a close eye on things next time." Song Yang breathed a sigh of relief and then said.

Seeing that Song Yang had spoken, everyone rushed to say polite words.

Li Junsu tapped the table, his eyes fixed on the family heads, who quickly shut their mouths.

“Haicheng is too small,” Li Junsu said.

The patriarchs all looked at Feng Fan, their breathing quickening.

Feng Fan also looked at Li Junsu.

“I plan to have the Gu Clan send a portion of their people here. The Yingbin Building will be responsible for the auction of Heaven-rank Gu worms, and you will be responsible for the sale of Earth-rank ones,” Li Junsu said.

Now, the patriarchs and Feng Fan were all filled with excitement.

The reception building handles the top-tier auctions and caters to the next-tier clients, whose owners are responsible for sales.

Everyone performs their duties.

“I believe everyone here is intelligent. You can discuss the specifics,” Li Junsu continued.

Song Yang and Feng Fan exchanged a glance and confirmed it: it was a look of cunning collusion.

"But I need to warn you, don't lose sight of the bigger picture." Li Junsu gave them another light but firm rebuke.

"If there are no further questions, please leave," Li Junsu said decisively without waiting for their response.

Song Yang and Feng Fan stood up, bowed, and then left.

Seeing this, the family heads could only bow and leave.

After everyone else had left, Su An approached Li Junsu.

"Boss, are they really that well-behaved?"

"They have no choice but to behave themselves."

......

Stepping outside the hall and feeling the gentle breeze, the crowd realized how cold their backs were.
