Chapter 258 offers an opportunity
Hong was stunned for a moment, but she quickly recovered: "Yes, yes, but everyone is dead, how... what happened?" Her heart skipped a beat. That was just something she made up on the spot. Where did she get a security escort agency?
"Although all the people from your escort agency are dead, you must know quite a few like-minded people, right?" Yun Yi raised her eyebrows slightly.
"I do know a few, but I don't know if they'll forget about me once they're gone," Hong sighed. "What does Miss want me to do?"
“Of course we should set up a caravan.” Yun Yi smiled. Her furniture business with the Guo family was doing well. In the past, she had always hired a security escort agency, but that was not a long-term solution. Moreover, she would have more business in the future. For example, once the hot pot restaurant opened, she would need to transport even more goods, and she couldn’t hire a security escort agency every time.
Therefore, she needed to establish her own security escort agency, which was essentially her own transport team.
The Fengyun Gang members could do these things, but she still had those people to rely on. Besides, most of them were based in Black City, and many had never even left Black City. Even if they formed a caravan, they wouldn't be able to adapt to the outside world in a short time. Therefore, the best solution was to recruit new people, and to recruit those with connections, preferably people from the martial arts world.
"Shall I try to contact them?" Hongyi asked tentatively.
“Okay.” Yunyi nodded. “They need to be highly skilled in martial arts and trustworthy in character. As for the treatment… I guarantee they will be satisfied.”
"Okay." Hong nodded.
After Yunyi returned, she happened to run into Jing Han, who had come with Gu Chengrui. Her eyes flashed and she said, "Come in and talk."
Hong Yi then stood guard at the entrance to the living room.
"Thank you, young lady." Upon entering the room, Gu Chengrui knelt down on one knee and bowed deeply to Yun Yi.
"General Gu, there's no need for that." Yun Yi quickly offered her hands in a gesture of support.
Gu Chengrui didn't insist and quickly stood up: "I won't say more, my Gu family... the young lady is the benefactor of the Gu family."
"I'm just offering an opportunity," Yunyi smiled. "As for how far you can go in the end, that depends on you."
"Understood, sir." Gu Chengrui nodded.
"What we need to do now is remove all the birthmarks, scars, or other marks that anyone knows about on your body," Yunyi said, stroking her chin. "Then we'll slightly alter your appearance."
"It's up to you, Miss."
"If you want a permanent solution, I can operate on your face, but then it can never be changed back. Otherwise, you can only wear a mask or use a disguise pill. The choice is yours."
Gu Chengrui looked at Jing Han.
"How about a disguise pill?" Jing Han suggested. "Although that thing has an expiration date, Bai Jianming will be back in Beijing for at most two months. We can use these two months to do our work. As for what happens after that... we'll see how it goes."
“Okay.” Yun Yi nodded, took out a box from her bag, opened it, and took out a red pill. “This disguise pill lasts for three and a half months, which should be enough for you to move around. Also…” she said, putting down a small bottle. “There is a black pill in here, which is a fake death drug. Once… this thing can save your life. As long as you take the antidote or find me within three days, you will be fine.”
Gu Chengrui's eyes lit up, and he excitedly clasped his hands in thanks: "Thank you, young lady."
"I'll have Hongyi prepare some other medicines and such for you. When do you plan to go?"
"Let's leave today." Gu Chengrui was even more anxious than Yun Yi, wishing he could get to Tianyang City immediately.
"Go and get ready, and say goodbye to the children."
Gu Chengrui nodded, turned and left.
"Yiyi." Jing Han didn't leave.
"Hmm?" Yun Yi frowned. Wasn't he calling her Yun Yi before? Why is he calling her so intimately today?
"Everyone calls you Yunyi, but I... I have to be different from others."
"Hehe." Yun Yi gave a dry laugh, "You'd better figure out what you want to call me right now. Don't keep changing the way you address me, it'll confuse even me."
"Yiyi, will I call you that from now on, or...Ayi?"
"Cough cough." Yunyi choked on her own saliva. Ayi? Auntie? Although she was quite old, she was only fourteen years old. It didn't feel right to be called auntie by someone older than her. "Just call me Yiyi."
Jing Han's smile widened: "Um... there's something else I'd like to discuss with you."
"what's up?"
“I know a friend who used to be a江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the world of martial arts and outlaws), working as a thug and a bodyguard. But he offended someone and had to go on the run with a group of brothers. Now that enemy is dead, but they can't go back to their original employer, and no one dares to hire them anymore. They want to come and join us, what do you think…”
Yunyi's eyes flickered: "How many people?" She was just about to find people to form a caravan, and now people have arrived?
"There are ten people in total, all of whom are skilled in martial arts. Although they are not top-notch masters, each of them has their own abilities and they are more than capable of dealing with ordinary bullies."
"Then let them come and meet us."
"Then I'll send them a message." Jing Han was delighted. "Should we have them come here or wait at the gang headquarters?"
"Go to the gang."
"Okay, I'll have someone send you a message when they arrive."
Yunyi waved her hand.
Jing Han then clasped his hands in a fist salute and withdrew. At the door, he glanced at Hong Yi before leaving.
"Young Miss." Hong Yi hurriedly ran to Yun Yi's side, "Now that the vice leader has someone, should I still contact someone?"
"Contact him, what if he's unreliable?"
“Okay.” Hong nodded. “I don’t know if I can receive the letter by writing, so I have to go there in person.”
Is it safe for someone to be alone?
"No problem, I'll be back in about three to five days. I'll definitely come back to ask for a New Year's red envelope."
Yunyi nodded: "I've saved a big red envelope for you."
Jing Han, Gu Chengrui, and Hong Yi left together after lunch.
When He Miao saw that Hongyi had left, she was worried that Yunyi would be alone and insisted on coming over to follow her, but Xiao Jinxiu stopped her: "Your belly is so big, if you follow Master, will you be taking care of her or will she be taking care of you?"
"I……"
"You should just focus on your pregnancy. Ah Hong is gone, but I'm still here."
“You yourself are a young lady, how can you act as someone’s maid?” He Miao glared.
"You talk as if you're not the young lady of the county magistrate's family," Xiao Jinxiu said, pursing her lips.
"Alright, you two, I'm not crippled, why would I need a girl?" Yun Yi sighed, "You two go do what you need to do, I'm going into the mountains." She turned and left, but saw Xia Laidi standing not far away, obviously waiting for her. She walked over and asked, "Is something wrong?"
(It's almost the end of the month again. Those who support Liu will receive huge year-end bonuses!)
