After Lin Ziwen left, Li Changzhou called Liu De in and asked him to take one million to Lin's Industrial Bank.
"Remember, use my car, and go when there are the most people," he instructed.
"Don't worry, Second Master." Liu De clasped his hands in acceptance and left.
Li Changzhou didn't go out. He instructed his servant that anyone who came to see him must be announced, regardless of their identity.
The news of Master Li's assassination should have been spread throughout the streets and alleys by newsboys, and if any black card players who knew him were to come looking for him.
Having assumed the identity of the second master of the Li family, he wasn't afraid of exposing his white card identity. He had already seen this level of identity purchase in the 'Identity Purchase' shop in the waiting hall—not a specific name, but a slogan like 'Core Mission Personnel'.
However, the price is so high that it feels like you're cutting off a piece of your own flesh to buy it.
It's not just about money; you also need intelligence to qualify, and most importantly, you need to meet the charisma standard—at the very least, you can't be inferior to the original historical figure.
Even if someone's charm level is only 5, they can't buy the status of Pan An with a million game coins.
Everything has two sides. Someone with too much charm can spend a million game coins and still not be able to buy an identity that someone who isn't so good-looking can have.
Strangely, no one came looking for him all day.
Is it that no one knows him, or does Black Card think that contacting someone in the inner circle is risky?
The black card didn't come to his door, and the white card didn't come to protect him either.
Bai Ka's mission was to ensure the deaths of Marshal Li and Li Bichang, so that Li Changzhou could take control of the Li clan's warlordism.
If Li Dashuai and Li Bichang are killed, and Li Changzhou is still alive, he will naturally be able to seize power. Logically speaking, the level of protection he receives should not be low.
However, the three tasks are like a math problem. You get points for completing a part of it. For example, if Li Dashuai and Li Bichang die, then Baika will have completed part of the task.
Answering incorrectly will not earn you points or deduct points. For example, if you kill Li Dashuai and Li Bichang, but Li Changzhou is also killed, it will not affect the one point that the white card gets (Li Dashuai and Li Bichang are dead), and the black card will also get one point (Li Changzhou did not get the right to inherit).
Based on the reactions on the first day, could it be that both the black card and white card sides have given up on the third mission?
Black Card believes that since Li Changzhou is one of our people (if we know him), and his failure to inherit the rights is a foregone conclusion, we might as well protect Marshal Li and Li Bichang. As long as one of them is alive, we can accomplish both tasks.
Bai Ka thought that to ensure Li Changzhou inherited military power, there was no easier and simpler method than assassinating Commander Li and Li Bi—after all, Li Changzhou couldn't commit suicide, and they could come back later to force him to inherit military power (it didn't matter if he died).
Of course, these are players who are just getting by on welfare. Those with ambition will put all their effort into planning their first mission (sending troops to fight the Song warlords).
That evening, Li Qianxia came again and told him about Yang Qinglan.
"I didn't expect to hear from her so soon." Li Changzhou felt relieved.
“Hehe, in reality, I was the one who met her first. In 1928, I was the one who met her first. I think my connection with her is deeper than yours,” Li Qianxia teased.
"How could it not be deep? She's my sister-in-law."
"Wow, bro, if you dared to say that in front of her, she would have been my sister-in-law by now!"
"It's only a matter of time, I'm not in a hurry, why are you?" Li Changzhou said calmly.
"Oh, right, Qinglan told you to meet with her when you go to the pear orchard tomorrow, saying she has something to discuss with us." Li Qianxia remembered the important matter.
“Mm,” Li Changzhou replied.
“Brother.” Li Qianxia smiled.
"You want more money?"
"No, no, that's true, but let's not talk about that for now. Qinglan also asked me to pass on a message to you."
"What did you say?"
"Do not do evil because it is insignificant."
Li Changzhou nodded without much reaction.
Li Qianxia found it hard to believe that someone would not understand such a simple principle, but just to be on the safe side, she pretended not to know and asked:
"Brother, what do you think that means?"
“What’s so hard to understand?” Li Changzhou asked, puzzled. “It’s just telling me that even though the characters here are fake, they can’t do evil at will and treat human life as worthless.”
On April 27, 1928, a warm spring night, Li Qianxia learned her brother's second habit—she bit the flesh on the right side of her mouth.
She suddenly realized that Yang Qinglan's inability to bargain, compared to her brother's emotional intelligence, was as adorable as a silver shaded kitten.
