The zombie king incident was merely a minor interlude for Ling Feng.
Just as Ling Feng’s attitude towards resolving the matter indicated, he truly hadn’t taken it to heart.
The incident was quickly forgotten by most.
However, for those who intended to cause trouble, the outcome of the zombie king served as a stark lesson!
Consequently, a period of calm descended.
Everything seemed to have settled into its proper groove, with no one daring to disrupt the peace.
Ling Feng’s life also became more leisurely.
When he had nothing else to do, he would play with his children and spend time with his wives.
During this period, through Ling Feng’s persistent efforts, all his wives were finally pregnant.
With this development, the affairs of the Jisheng Group gradually fell upon Ling Feng’s shoulders. Perhaps Ling Feng was looking for something to occupy his time.
Thus, he began to familiarize himself with the responsibilities previously handled by his wives.
This investigation made Ling Feng feel even more sympathetic towards his wives; the work of the Jisheng Group was no easy feat.
Of course, Ling Feng was projecting too much and overlooking certain aspects.
Previously, these tasks were shared among his wives, but now, they all fell upon him, Ling Feng.
Naturally, he found it incredibly tedious.
Another point was that Ling Feng disliked procrastination and preferred long-term planning. Even if he couldn't be ahead of others, he aimed to be meticulous in his steps.
As a result, Ling Feng’s work efficiency was exceptionally high, to the point where the entire Jisheng Group struggled to keep up with the pace of their president.
“What about the other documents?”
After completing his current workload, Ling Feng called out to his assistant who had just entered.
This assistant was originally pretty and cute, with a particularly good complexion.
However, since Ling Feng’s arrival, she had become increasingly haggard, developing dark circles under her eyes within a few days.
“President Ling, there is truly no more work for you to handle. Moreover, the tasks you’ve assigned might not even be completed by our company within one or two months!”
The assistant wore a wry smile. While the situation was somewhat amusing, she had to admit that Ling Feng was truly remarkable.
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng raised an eyebrow and remarked, “What? No more work? Are you saying the previous workload was for one to two months?”
The assistant nodded. “Yes, and you finished it in three days!”
“Why didn’t you say so earlier? I thought it was accumulated work,” Ling Feng shook his head helplessly and stood up, ready to leave his office. He had come here to ensure his wives could rest and nourish their bodies at home.
The assistant looked wronged. “You didn’t give me a chance to say anything. Ever since you joined the company, you’ve been working relentlessly. During this period, our company has been operating at your pace; everyone’s walking speed has increased significantly!”
Ling Feng shook his head. “That just shows everyone has room to spare. The Jisheng Group can operate even faster, and we need to be more efficient. The expansion of the safe zone is progressing quickly. Next, humanity will enter a period of rapid reproduction, and the population will surge. Most of Jisheng Group’s products are medicines and tonics, which will be needed by everyone!”
The assistant quickly nodded in agreement. Faced with Ling Feng’s lecture, she was genuinely convinced.
After leaving the company, Yang Fei was already waiting downstairs.
“How is it? Has anything happened recently?”
Ling Feng asked casually.
Yang Fei shook his head. “No, only the selection process for the Dark Dragon Guard has reached its final stage. We’ve identified many promising candidates. Also, the black market trading of cultivation techniques and similar items has become more rampant, especially online, where they even offer home delivery!”
Ling Feng raised an eyebrow and looked at Yang Fei. “And you call that nothing happening?”
Yang Fei gave an awkward, wry smile and shook his head. “You told me not to act rashly and to ignore the online activities!”
“Telling you to ignore it doesn’t mean I don’t need to address it!”
Ling Feng shook his head and directly dialed Zhou Jin’s number. “How is the investigation going? Have those who sell cultivation techniques online been identified?”
“Heavenly Venerate, we have identified many individuals, but the true core personnel remain unconfirmed. What is certain is that these people have already united, and it’s very difficult for our people to infiltrate them!”
Zhou Jin’s response was very precise. It was clear that Zhou Jin was not only responsible for research and development but was also establishing a global network.
This network could penetrate various communities.
Identifying targets had become relatively easy.
However, even with all these methods employed, they still couldn’t precisely pinpoint these individuals, proving that these fellows were indeed extremely cautious in their actions.
“Yes, I understand. Provide me with some locations first, and I’ll go take a look.”
Ling Feng hung up the phone immediately after speaking.
Soon, an address appeared on Ling Feng’s phone.
There was also some information below. Ling Feng directly handed his phone to Yang Fei beside him.
“Prepare yourself. Tonight, we’re going to this auction! We’ll also be selling some cultivation techniques under our guise.”
Yang Fei glanced at the information, and his eyes widened.
“This is the largest auction house in Kyoto. Are they privately selling cultivation techniques in a place like this? Isn’t it true that only those who have obtained patent authorization can sell inherited cultivation techniques?”
Ling Feng glanced at Yang Fei. “Haven’t you heard the saying, ‘selling dog meat under a sheep’s head’?”
Yang Fei’s eyes widened. “Are you saying they are turning patented cultivation techniques into their own and trading them to those who already know the news?”
“This is also what I need you to prepare for. Infiltrate and gather some internal information. Where there is no buying, there is no killing. Focus on investigating the acquisition merchants who understand the inside story. These are businessmen who stand to profit, so it should be quick to find a breakthrough!”
Yang Fei nodded repeatedly.
Ling Feng, however, seemed to have thought of something and turned back to look at Yang Fei deeply.
“Can you handle this?”
Yang Fei’s old face flushed, and he then solemnly saluted Ling Feng. “Yes, your subordinate guarantees the mission will be completed!”
“Be more flexible in your approach. If you can’t, let Shuai Nan help you. Hmm, bring him along. This kid is quite reliable when it comes to matters of money!”
Ling Feng added this command to Yang Fei.
This made Yang Fei feel an unprecedented sense of crisis.
Now, Ling Feng didn’t quite trust him, always thinking of Lin Shuai Nan for any matter.
However, Yang Fei dared not say anything superfluous. He had to admit that Lin Shuai Nan, this money-grubber, was far more adept at dealing with these businessmen than he, Yang Fei.
As night fell, Lin Shuai Nan and Yang Fei emerged from a club.
The two appeared to be quite inebriated.
They staggered into a car.
However, as soon as they got into the car, their demeanor changed completely, and they became perfectly sober.
“These guys are not simple. It took quite some effort to extract useful information,” Yang Fei gritted his teeth, looking displeased.
