Chapter 1056: Chapter 415: Open Tender_2
"Boss, I’m signing up!"
The person speaking had the codename "Glasses." When he first joined the Ninth Investigation Bureau, he wore glasses and worked in an administrative role, earning him that codename since he was the only one who wore glasses there.
Later, when Zhang Beixing came to the Ninth Investigation Bureau, he used his own power to help Glasses regain his sight, but the codename stuck.
At this point, Glasses had already reached Level B as a Martial Artist. Although not the top echelon in the Ninth Investigation Bureau, he wasn’t weak.
Having been in the Ninth Investigation Bureau for so long, Glasses clearly understood more than anyone that this was a place where the strong ruled. Naturally, he wouldn’t pass up any opportunity to improve himself.
"Since you want to sign up, I’ll give you the opportunity. As for the others, you can compile a list, and I will assign them to the Logistics Group’s security sequence."
While speaking, Zhang Beixing stood up, both hands resting on the table.
"By the way, I forgot to mention, I will be solely responsible for the entire security sequence."
The people left in the room looked at each other, and when they snapped back to reality, they exploded in angry shouts.
"Minister, I want to sign up, I want to sign up, why are you only saying this now?"
"Yes, Minister, I think I’m more suitable to be at your side than Glasses."
"Why do you think you’re more suitable than me?"
A single sentence, whose source was unknown, instantly sparked Glasses’ displeasure.
The once quiet room suddenly became lively, which was exactly what Zhang Beixing wanted to see.
"So, you’ve gotten somewhat familiar with our place here, haven’t you?"
In the office of the Ninth Logistics Group, Richard looked over the documents Zhang Beixing handed over about the Ninth Investigation Bureau and some information about the people around him, raising his estimation of Zhang Beixing and others.
Just knowing that person is impressive and actually acknowledging that person’s impressiveness are completely different things.
"Yes, I really didn’t expect all of this. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have been so... petty."
Richard pondered for a long time before coming up with a word he deemed more appropriate.
Sitting opposite Richard, Xu Feng laughed, remembering how his initial thoughts when he first interacted with Zhang Beixing were quite similar to Richard’s now.
"Minister actually has nothing particularly outstanding, apart from his strength."
Being able to say this, Xu Feng was already considered quite irreverent, but it was indeed his genuine thought.
However, as those with military backgrounds, as long as one’s own strength was strong enough, that was sufficient. Therefore, Zhang Beixing had become the spiritual belief for all Martial Artists within the Earth Investigation Bureau or the Great Xia Realm.
"But I really didn’t expect him to get involved with such a charitable organization."
Having briefly reviewed some of the administrative requirements of the Ninth Logistics Group, for thorough capitalists like them, Zhang Beixing’s actions indeed did not differ much from running a charity.
"We don’t know the Minister’s intentions, but as long as there’s something he wants to do, he naturally has his reasons."
At this, Xu Feng couldn’t help but furrow his brow, clearly irritated by Richard’s words.
After all, having grown up under different educations and environments, their theoretical conflicts were normal.
If it were the former Xu Feng, he would definitely argue with Richard thoroughly, but now that Richard could be considered as someone personally brought by Zhang Beixing, Xu Feng knew which was weightier.
"But no matter what, since they’re spending Minister Zhang’s money, I just need to help maximize his benefits."
Richard held great respect in his heart for Zhang Beixing, as achieving so much for the workers was unprecedented in Richard’s memory.
"The boss knows you’re a genius in business, that’s why this task is given to you."
Regarding Richard’s abilities, Xu Feng never denied them, especially since the Ninth Investigation Bureau had its own intelligence network. Wanting to understand some things about Richard was no problem.
"What do you plan to do next? I suppose starting a logistics company isn’t the end goal, you’re aiming to establish an intelligence network worldwide?"
Richard expressed his insight while looking at Xu Feng.
"You’re indeed a genius."
Xu Feng’s compliment slipped out, genuinely from the heart.
Even those around him simply thought Zhang Beixing was merely trying to provide assurance for his brothers.
Though Zhang Beixing did indeed want that, the main goal was still to set up an intelligence network.
After all, the logistics industry spans worldwide, and as long as the logistics company is big enough, having their staff and ships appear anywhere in the world is normal.
As long as the logistics company’s expansion is broad enough, they can establish their intelligence network in various places.
"But don’t you have your own intelligence network?"
Richard was confused; as a special entity, the Ninth Investigation Bureau should logically have its own intelligence network.
"Of course, we have our own intelligence network; it’s just not that convenient to use."
Xu Feng was very clever and knew in his heart what Zhang Beixing had been planning all along.
Although not 100% clear, he could catch some glimpses; ever since he was appointed to establish the first team, Xu Feng had noticed.
"I roughly understand what you want to do, and I think I can help in this regard."
Richard wore a very serious expression, and his decision to follow Zhang Beixing was not just to prove his strength but also to consider other factors.
For instance, to close the gap between himself and the other party for future Federation Clan development support.
Cracks among the Eight Great Clans were already appearing, and mutual annexation was just a matter of time. Although organized intervention temporarily restored balance,
conflict among everyone was inevitable, and according to the news his grandfather returned with, the Eight Great Clans had already started opposing each other, with five factions plotting against the two remaining clans favorable to the Federation Clan.
Most importantly, those five clans had found some thing from somewhere, a monster capable of killing nearly a hundred people alone.
"I think it’s necessary to inform Mr. Zhang Beixing about this."
Green Tea had long wanted to relay the information his grandfather returned with to Zhang Beixing, but as Zhang Beixing first went to the forest and then became engrossed with the Geological Logistics Group, he hadn’t had the opportunity.
"Though I also think this might be related to that damned organization, the Ninth Logistics Group’s issues are currently most important."
Although he had recognized Richard, Xu Feng had no good thoughts about the entire Federation Clan.
As the saying goes, ’those not like us must have different hearts,’ which may be a narrow-minded view but isn’t wrong.
"But I think it won’t be long before Minister Zhang deals with your issue."
"What issue does he have?"
As the two were talking, Zhang Beixing walked in unexpectedly.
"It’s like this, information spread by the Federation Clan mentions encountering a monster capable of fighting a hundred men, and bullets can’t pierce its body."
As Zhang Beixing was already there, Xu Feng naturally had no need to hide, and he briefly explained the situation.
"I didn’t expect that guy to grow so quickly, but it’s still not enough."
Zhang Beixing, hearing this, instead of being worried, wore a mocking smile.
