Siheyuan: Starting from the Old Society

Chapter 148: Complicated Officialdom Game

"My Song family has no idea for now!"

After Xu Wanqin came out of the bathroom after rinsing her mouth, Lin Sian told Song Qingzhi what he had said.

"How about it?"

"What on earth does this mean?"

After a while, seeing Xu Wanqin's beautiful eyebrows relax, Lin Sian immediately asked. He seemed to be guessing a riddle, but he was still quite interested.

"Oh, that means the Song family doesn't have a clear candidate to support right now, and this idea is just a condition, a condition for exchange."

"Of course, this doesn't mean that no one has approached the Song family, but the conditions offered by these people are still being sought by the Song family."

Xu Wanqin explained.

"Oh shit, there are so many twists and turns in there."

Lin Sian couldn't help but spit, thinking that since he didn't have the brains to be an official, he'd better not get involved.

"Officialdom has always been about exchanging interests, so some words should be said in an ambiguous way. Maybe the other party's ability to understand is a little poor. If you pay more, won't you earn more?"

Xu Wanqin gave a reminder.

"Okay, okay, then what conditions can your Xu family offer?"

Lin Sian waved his hand, not wanting to discuss these twists and turns anymore, and asked directly.

"We can afford a division!"

To put it bluntly, it means sending out a division of troops and letting a member of the Song family become a division commander with real power to mobilize troops.

Many people who become division commanders are just title holders. Let alone a brigade, they would be lucky to have a regiment of soldiers under them. The rest they have to spend money to form a regiment themselves, so this is definitely a big deal.

After hearing this, Lin Sian was secretly amazed. A division has nearly 10,000 soldiers, this is incredible!

I also remembered that the Xu family had expanded a division before, which was actually in preparation for this time.

But then I thought again, if the Xu family gave him a master, then the others must not be bad either.

So he asked, "The conditions of other companies should be similar, right?"

"To be honest, this is the best that my Xu family and other families can do, so we wanted to use Miss Song as a breakthrough point. But this breakthrough point was taken by you." Xu Wanqin said with a flicker in her eyes. But Lin Sian didn't notice.

"So, Si'an, as long as you can make this happen for me, next time you come over, you can do whatever you want. How about it?" After saying that, Xu Wanqin threw a coquettish glance, which was totally tempting!

"I'll talk to her again. Don't worry, you're so attractive. I'll do my best to get you." Lin Sian said with a smile, but in his heart he was thinking about how to negotiate with Song Qingyun again.

At the same time, he was also considering how to use this opportunity to gain more benefits for himself.

After all, in the officialdom, which is a huge network of intertwined interests, everyone is looking for the most advantageous position for themselves.

As a businessman, Lin Sian would naturally not miss any opportunity to make a profit.

So he decided to facilitate the transaction between the Xu and Song families while also trying to get the greatest benefit for himself.

Only in this way can you be invincible in this complicated game of officialdom.

Lin Sian patted his chest and promised that he thought he could make this happen by offering a favor. Lin Sian felt it was worth it to exchange a favor for a beauty like Xu Wanqin, and he still had two favors with Song Qingzhi. But this matter was not urgent, and he would talk to Song Qingzhi in a few days. He couldn't be too impatient in the negotiation.

A few days later, Zhou Qiang came and said that he had investigated and found out that the bandits on Wanger Mountain had an internal conflict. The second-in-command Zhang Xiong'an colluded with the Japanese and killed the first-in-command Sai Xishi. Since then, she has lost all trace.

Lin Sian immediately asked: "Have you investigated why there was internal strife?"

Zhou Qiang nodded and said, "Yes, our spies bribed Zhang Xiong'an's confidants and learned that the reason why he colluded with the Japanese was because of the map. Zhang Xiong'an himself had a map and had given it to the Japanese. Sai Xishi also had a map, but she probably didn't let Zhang Xiong'an get it because he is still sending people to search for Sai Xishi everywhere."

"This Sai Xishi must have gone into hiding, and it's not easy to find her. We must closely monitor Zhang Xiong'an and other bandits. If they catch Sai Xishi, we must find a way to rescue her and get her to come to our side."

"We also need to closely monitor Zhang Xiong'an and investigate which Japanese he gave the map to."

Lin Sian ordered.

"Okay, Master Lin!"

Zhou Qiang nodded in agreement.
