After supper, Laura came to the parlor, which was not a big parlor used for receiving guests outside, but a small parlor in the inner residence. All the people here were Laura’s trusted subordinates.

However, there weren’t many people in the living room. There were only three people, Laura, Nier, and kun Zheng. Laura and kun were sitting on the sofa with a cup of cocoa in their hands.

After taking a sip of Keya, Laura turned to kun Zheng and said, ” &Quot; Grandpa kun Zheng, I’m going to Rocky Mountain tomorrow to pay a visit to Zhao Hai. Is that okay? ”

Kun Zheng had also taken a sip of the Keya, and when he heard Laura’s words, he nodded and said, ” &Quot; alright. Recently, Zhao Hai’s name has been constantly heard in Casar city. He also saved your life, so you should pay him a visit. A few days ago, he asked us to help him transport a batch of live blue-eyed rabbits over. I don’t know what he’s up to, but Rocky Mountain has almost become a restricted area. Ordinary people don’t go near it. This time, I heard that the Versailles family had also been rejected by him. It seems that this person is very strong. I’ll go with you tomorrow and see if we can win him over. If it’s possible, it’ll be a good thing for us.”

It could be said that before Laura was in charge, klent’s group had relied on kun Zheng’s support. Therefore, no matter what happened, Laura would always ask for kun Zheng’s opinion. It was also because of this that klent was so respectful to kun Zheng.

Laura heaved a sigh of relief when she heard kun Zheng’s words. Kun Zheng glanced at her and said with a smile, ” “What’s wrong? Do you have any doubts about Zhao Hai?”

Lola nodded and said, ” yes. I had some doubts at first. Zhao Hai’s appearance was too coincidental. He was also a black magician, so I was afraid that he was in cahoots with the undead mercenaries. But now, it doesn’t seem like it. &Quot;

Kun Zheng smiled and said, ” &Quot; it’s not that they don’t look like it, it’s just that they are. I’ve investigated the immortal mercenaries, and I found out that they have a very deep background. They should belong to a secret organization, but Zhao Hai isn’t. The attack on Zhao Hai by the Versailles family might be related to that organization. I suspect that qielan and the three high-ranking Warriors who attacked Zhao Hai are all related to that organization. It’s a huge and mysterious organization. I haven’t found anything yet, but I’m sure that this organization has nothing to do with Zhao Hai.”

Laura’s face changed,”there’s such an organization?” The undead mercenary group was a black magician, and Garan was a White Magician. How could they belong to the same organization? That’s not possible, is it?”

Kun was looking at Laura with a smile. &Quot; “Silly child, nothing is impossible. Do you think that the world is as simple as you think? Do you think that the White magicians attacked the black magicians because the black magicians did something evil? In fact, most of the black magicians in this world don’t do evil and the White magicians aren’t necessarily cleaner than the black magicians. It’s just that their magic is better than black magic, so they have been misunderstood by people.”

Lola nodded and continued, ” if that mysterious organization has such a powerful force, I’m afraid they would have been the king of the continent long ago. Why haven’t I heard of their name on the continent? ”

Kun Zheng smiled and said, ” the truly powerful people in this world don’t necessarily have to be Kings and tyrants. Any dynasty will be destroyed one day. However, the major forces that are truly hidden underground are very difficult to destroy. Some of these major forces have existed longer than those ancient major families. Their forces have penetrated into all aspects of the continent and are definitely a force that can not be underestimated. &Quot;

It was Laura’s first time hearing kun talk about this, so she asked in surprise, ” “Really? Who is in charge of these forces?”

&Quot; no one knows, ” kun Zheng replied with a bitter smile. &Quot; there are many great powers on the continent, but no one knows who their true master is. &Quot;

&Quot; yes. &Quot; Lola nodded. &Quot; so, the thing that’s going against us this time, are those major forces also going to attack us? ”

Kun Zheng shook his head. &Quot; that’s not the case. If those major forces really wanted to deal with us, we wouldn’t be sitting here right now. Don’t underestimate the power of those major forces. If they really wanted to deal with us, even if the entire magilder family were to join forces, they might not be able to stop us. &Quot;

“It’s that powerful?” Laura asked in shock.

Kun Zheng laughed bitterly. &Quot; they are that powerful. The magicians are considered a powerful family on the continent, but compared to those major powers, they are still a little lacking. That’s why I said that it’s not that major power that wants to deal with us this time. It’s very likely that the undead mercenaries acted on their own accord, so we don’t have to worry about anything. &Quot;

Lola nodded, then frowned and said, ” “Then aren’t Zhao Hai and the others in danger? They’ve beaten up the immortal mercenaries, so they’ll definitely get their revenge.”

Kun Zheng smiled. &Quot; this Zhao Hai isn’t that simple. I suspect that he’s supported by a powerful faction. Otherwise, how could a Black Mage like him gather so many high-level undead creatures? moreover, those undead creatures seemed to have been subdued on the mainland. Can a mage without any background do that? ”

&Nbsp; Lola was stunned for a moment. &Quot; Grandpa kun Zheng, you’re saying that Mr. Zhao Hai is also from that faction? ”

Kun Zheng nodded and said, ” &Quot; it’s possible. From the way they do things, it’s a little similar. Usually, people from underground forces like this don’t do things too openly. Zhao Hai is like this. Before he came to Casar city, he didn’t even register with the Mages Guild. After he came to Casar city, he has been living in seclusion and has never caused any trouble outside. All of this seems to be the underground forces. If Zhao Hai really is from the underground forces ... &Quot; In that case, it’s not a big deal for us to get in touch with them. Perhaps it’ll be beneficial for us.”

Laura was stunned and asked,”what benefits?” If Zhao Hai is also representing a major underground force, then the battle between the forces might implicate us. Wouldn’t we be in danger then?”

Kun Zheng smiled and said,”little Laura, you’ve been a merchant for so many years. Do you still not understand?” What was a businessman? A businessman is someone who maximises profits. You will never be a qualified businessman. A businessman’s investment has its risks. We are basically investing now. Tomorrow, we will go and see if this Zhao Hai is suitable for investment.”

“Grandpa kun Zheng, aren’t you being too Philistine?” Laura asked in a coquettish manner. You want to invest in this too?”

Kun looked at Laura and said calmly, ” &Quot; little Laura, you have to remember that a businessman is only surrounded by two kinds of people: those who are worth investing in and those who are not worth investing in, even your friends and relatives. If your friend is worth investing in, you can invest in him or help him; he might bring you more benefits; if not, you could help your relatives and friends. However, there must be a limit to this gang, because it’s impossible for it to bring you any returns.”

“Grandpa kun Zheng, what kind of person am I then?” Laura looked at kun Zheng slyly.

Kun Zheng coughed and glared at Laura. &Quot; “You’re a special case. You don’t count as either type of person.”

Laura laughed. She knew that kun Zheng’s way of teaching her was good, but there were very few businessmen who could really do this. This was because to be a businessman like kun Zheng, they had to always put benefits first and be truly heartless. This was okay when it came to talking, but it was too difficult to do it.

Kun revealed a bitter smile impatiently as he looked at Laura. Laura was good in every way. She was smart and decisive. However, she was still too soft-hearted at the moment. Sometimes, she could not bear to deal a heavy blow, which was very dangerous for a superior.

However, kun Zheng could understand. Laura was only 18 years old, after all. She was still a young lady in her Prime. It was impossible for such a young lady to be as decisive and decisive as a superior.

&Nbsp; ” it doesn’t matter if Zhao Hai is a member of the underground faction. His strength is for sure. Befriending him will only bring us benefits. We’ll go and take a look tomorrow. If this Zhao Hai really has no ulterior motives, then we’ll have to make good friends with him. &Quot; kun Zheng sighed.

Lola nodded, then frowned and said, ” &Quot; Grandpa kun Zheng, no matter what, Mr. Zhao Hai saved my life once. I have to prepare some gifts for him tomorrow. What kind of gifts do you think we should prepare? ”

&Nbsp; kun Zheng furrowed his brows. &Quot; this gift is really not easy to prepare. It’s too light, and it won’t show our status as the magicians. If it’s too heavy, it will make Zhao Hai think that we want to use these gifts to draw a line with him. This matter is really not easy to handle. &Quot;

Lola frowned and said, ” yes, but I’ve met Mr. Zhao Hai once. He seems to be easy to get along with, and he is a mage. I think we should give him a magic robe and a magic staff. The last time I met him, I found that he was holding a very ordinary magic staff, and the magic robe he was wearing was also very ordinary. I think we should give him Yue ye and Ling Feng. &Quot;

Kun Zheng nodded and said, ” that’s a good idea. Moonlit night is a black magic robe, so it’s perfect to give it to Zhao Hai. Although Spirit Wind is a wind element magic staff, it also has a great effect on black magic. It’s perfect to give it to Zhao Hai for two years. Moreover, the total value of these two items has already exceeded 50000 gold coins. I think Zhao Hai will be satisfied. &Quot;
