Chapter 801: Gu Xin Yi

Long Wu certainly wouldn't admit that he had fallen behind.

Rather, the underground world is far less extensive than the normal world.

The Yang Family makes progress each year like a step, while the Thirteen Hall, having left the Jingmen, keeps going in circles in the Black Zone.

One advances quickly, the other lingers in place.

His circle determines his horizons.

After being scolded by Yang Qing, Long Shan slunk away from the Yang Family.

Yang Qing said he was sitting on a gold mine without realizing it.

He thought for a long time but still didn't understand.

Then he went home.

Long Wu hadn't seen his son in a long time; he pulled him aside and talked for a while.

But lacking energy, he soon felt drowsy.

Through conversation and observation, Long Wu learned that Long Shan was facing a problem.

Finally, he gave him some advice.

"Talent is destiny."

"Learn to know people and use them well."

"Go find Gui Qi's grandson, Gui Xinyi."

"He might be able to give you some pointers."

"Be courteous when you meet him; don't put on airs."

The Gui Family has long controlled the Yang Family's spy network.

They understand the situation better.

However, now the Yang Family has more descendants, and gradually family members have come to control this system.

Gui Qi was tactful, handing over some sensitive information channels and intelligence.

He no longer meddles too much in sensitive information.

Even so, the Gui Family's understanding of the Yang Family far surpasses that of the Long Family.

Gui Xinyi, whose surface name is Gu Xin Yi.

Actually, his age is about the same as Long Shan's.

He belongs to the eldest, while Long Shan belongs to the youngest.

Long Shan called, wanting to meet him; after tidying up a bit, he went to the agreed place.

This is a villa on Peaceful Mountain.

It belongs to the Long Family's investment; usually no one lives there.

Long Shan then used this place to receive Gu Xin Yi.

After exchanging pleasantries, they soon went to the study.

Long Shan is now somewhat confused; he actually laid out everything.

Gu Xin Yi was quite surprised, and then moved by this trust.

"Uncle Long, based on your situation, the Thirteen Hall indeed needs to fill more senior talent."

"The association also has White Paper Fan, let alone so many people."

"Even for safety, if we don't hire outsiders, we must cultivate our own people."

"That old set is outdated; you should learn from the associations in Gangdao."

"Pursue multi-industry development."

"Develop white, gray, and black businesses."

"White business can settle the Thirteen Hall's family members; gray business can be used for laundering and pulling in connections."

"Black business also needs optimization."

"Yang Yeye said you're sitting on a gold mine without realizing it, and that makes sense."

Long Shan's face darkened; he was looked down upon by his juniors.

Gu Xin Yi didn't sell out, and continued.

"The money‑laundering business can indeed be done."

"But it's not about directly snatching business from those Gangdao associations."

"You can totally cooperate."

"Didn't Yang Yeye tell you to develop a business targeting those who flee?"

"That's a big business."

"According to what I know, those corrupt merchants and embezzlers have, over the years, transferred tens of trillions of assets overseas."

"Moreover, many such people still flee each year."

"You just need to skim off a portion, and that will be enough to keep you well fed."

"Furthermore, there are now many people domestically who are enamored with foreign lands; a little enticement and they'll be willing to spend a lot to go abroad."

"This business is not small either; there are now many people and agencies dealing with immigration—don't you see them?"

"This business, when undertaken, is also not small."

"Also, there's the cross‑national marriage business you're already doing."

"Domestically, there are also many foreign women who find local men uncomfortable and want to seek foreigners; you can also run this business."

"The Jingmen has opened up many places; while some are willing to marry local beautiful women, many women are unwilling to marry local men."

"These women are willing."

Why don't you see them off part of the way?

Actually, Yang Qing had already said these ideas of Gu Xinyi.

But the Thirteen Hall folks feel it's too lowly, and they never really took it seriously.

Cleaning up those unsavory people did bring gains, but after a few times they faced pressure from the local authorities.

Now Gu Xinyi brings it up again, and Long Shan even starts to doubt himself.

Could I really be wrong?

Gu Xinyi fears he won't grasp it.

During this period, over on WanDao, the number of people heading to Nanyang to run telecom scams and human trafficking suddenly surged.

The Yang Family doesn't allow targeting Daxia, but they didn't say you can't target others, right?

In the Southern Dynasties, those living comfortably are all wealthy, huh.

Long Shan stared, then turned to look at Gu Xinyi.

This kid is ruthless enough.

Indeed, just as Yang Qing said, his horizons really are narrow.

How did he not realize that many things are hard to do in Daxia, but elsewhere they don't matter?

"Xinyi, are you interested in coming to work with me?"

"The seat in Thirteen Hall is yours to take."

"You are my strategist; we strike wherever I point."

Gu Xinyi certainly won't join Thirteen Hall; it's the same reason—once you're in, you can't be seen in public.

Offering ideas is because Long Shan is my elder and trusts me.

But selling oneself? Forget it.

"Thank you for your kindness, Uncle Shan; I appreciate it."

"However, I'm the eldest grandson of the Gu Family, so sorry, Uncle Shan."

Long Shan said that just in case.

So facing Gu Xinyi's refusal, he wasn't too disappointed.

"Sigh, Uncle, I'm really exhausted; everything weighs on me."

"After returning, I'll act on your advice."

"The international marriage business is indeed good."

Gu Xinyi smiled.

"Exotic charm is actually popular domestically."

"Moreover, domestically there are many open-minded women, whom foreigners call Egirls."

"This is also doing a good deed."

Long Shan also chuckled.

"I heard domestically people joke that local men are all 'simple-confident' guys."

"I think such an outstanding girl should have a better future."

"We should introduce him to some different guys."

After discussing with Gu Xinyi for a long time, Long Shan had many ideas in mind.

Actually, Yang Qing had previously hinted at it to him, but he overlooked it.

Now picking it up again isn't too late.

This indeed has great prospects.

It's also closely tied to their work.

Doing such things, neither the Yang Family nor Jingmen would consider it problematic.

It also rid Daxia of its scourge.

Perfect.

He didn't realize how much pork he'd eaten these past two years, actually being blinded by lard.

After talking, the two went out, arms around each other, to have fun.

Yang Shulin originally thought he would still be harassed by Long Shan a few more times.

As it turned out, they never came looking for him afterward.

Yang Qihang felt.

"He probably went to see your grandfather."
