“Xiaohu, bring Green Dragon’s accounts to me tonight. I’ll talk to Abing about it. I’ll give it to him if he’s really suitable to be Green Dragon’s boss. You’ll bring him around for a period until he’s familiar and then bestow the authority on him when he’s ready.”

“Yes, Sir!” Tie Xiaohu replied excitedly. Someone was finally going to take over this difficult task.

“You two have to have a post in Green Dragon. Hmm, I think you two can be the elders of the sect. Tang Meng will supervise the general ledger, while Tie Xiaohu is in charge of disciplinary actions!” Ling Yun continued.

“Green Dragon Sect was created by Uncle Long. It might be a gang, but it has never done things like prostitution or selling drugs. I don’t want this principle to change… Understand?”

Ling Yun said this in all seriousness, and Tang Meng and Tie Xiaohu didn’t dare disobey.

Tie Xiaohu smiled happily when all this was settled. The huge rock weighing on his heart had disappeared, leaving him with a sense of lightness.

In fact, Tie Xiaohu might be a burly man, but he definitely wasn’t stupid. He was savvy and had been in Green Dragon Sect for the past three years. He had Green Dragon Sect at his fingertips — their land and operations. If he was willing to put in the effort, he would no doubt be the best candidate to run it. However, what could be done if Tie Xiaohu himself didn’t want the post because of his craze for martial arts? He also swore to be by Ling Yun’s side.

On the other hand, Tang Meng had met with a problem! His Heaven and Earth Group had yet to be established!

“Big Brother Yun, Tie Xiaohu can be at ease now, but what about me?” Tang Meng put on his best smile.

Tang Meng’s immediate headache was Ling Yun’s current assets.

The biggest was, of course, the six companies given by Miracle Doctor Xue to Ling Yun, followed by the fashion shop opposite the Ordinary People’s Clinic, and then the business dealings at the Antique Market…

There was also the hundred acres of land at Linjiang District! Its construction was imminent!

Even though Ling Yun said he was going to manage the Ordinary People’s Clinic himself, he couldn’t do so when he was busy. Tang Meng had to look out for that area as well.

Tang Meng’s plan was to establish a film and television company, a real estate company, and a pharmaceutical company. There was no more need for a pharmaceutical company, but Ling Yun had come up with yet another instruction — to purchase a large scale metal smelting factory!

What was the metal smelting factory for?

Ling Yun couldn’t possibly refine tens of thousands of tons of metal in his own backyard. Not only was he not of the necessary level in cultivation, but he would also need a huge farce to cover this up.

One would need a huge chimney for the metal smelting factory at the very least. If not, wouldn’t it cause a lot of suspicion?

Ling Yun was preparing to smelt metals, which was why the film and television company Tang Meng planned could only be delayed. He had to purchase a metal smelting factory for Ling Yun first.

Tang Meng didn’t even attend a single college entrance exam because he had so many things to settle. Could a young man of eighteen handle all of that by himself? Not in your wildest dreams!

Ling Yun’s tasks were so much simpler. He would treat when he wanted to. He wouldn’t even be in the clinic if he had no time. There were Miao Xiaomiao and Xue Meining holding the fortress there anyway. The rest of the stuff was to have Tang Meng purchase medicinal herbs and metals.

Medicinal herbs were to be used in making talismans and concocting medical pills, while the metals were used to refine vessels, and all of them were needed in huge quantities. It didn’t only require financial might but also a big enough smelting factory.

Ling Yun knew what Tang Meng was fretting about. “Tang Meng, I know what you’re worried about. You must feel muddled now. But you have to understand one principle while following me, which is that you shouldn’t take all the matters upon yourself…”

“Look at me, I have no worries!” Ling Yun smirked.

Of course you have no worries, you pushed all the miscellaneous stuff to us! Tie Xiaohu and Tang Meng thought inwardly.

They wouldn’t dare to say it out loud though.

“Wang Hongyuan is better than you in fashion, Uncle Song and the Lord of Jade are better than you in jewelry, and you are a complete novice in medicine when compared to the Zhuang Family and Uncle Xue…”

Tang Meng reddened in shame when he heard Ling Yun’s comments about him. He would dig himself a hole to hide if he could. Any more and he would probably tear up on the spot.

“You aren’t as professional as them. You’re a complete rookie in these areas… How could you not be muddled?”

“Big Brother Yun, what am I to do then?” Tang Meng asked in a choking tone, his face full of misery.

“Don’t rush, I’ve told you the answer just now…” Ling Yun smiled.

“You might not have the professional skills, but you have your strengths…”

Big Brother Yun has finally arrived at my strengths. So I still have strengths, eh? Tang Meng’s ears pricked up.

“Your communication skills are top-notch. You know how to integrate and turn a bunch of messy, senseless matters into orderly matters. That is your biggest strength!”

“That’s why I don’t need you to specialize. I didn’t have you follow me because I want you to suffer!” Ling Yun smiled.

“Leave the fashion store to Wang Hongyuan, and leave the jewelry and precious stones to Uncle Song and the Lord of Jade. As for the six pharmaceutical companies, aren’t they doing well on their own? We just need to transfer them officially under my name and then let them run as per usual…”

I’d have no more business with all these then, Tang Meng thought to himself. “Big Brother Yun, then what do I do?” Tang Meng asked with a crestfallen face.

“Integrate! After you’re done integrating, you have to supervise these professionals and communicate with the. That is a huge achievement!” Ling Yun flashed a huge grin.

“You only need to grasp the right direction, no matter how complicated the matter is… Then you’ll have to make the carrot and the stick systems clear. Isn’t that easy?

“Why would you need to worry even if you were to open another hundred companies if you handle them this way?”

“You should know what to do from now on, right?” Ling Yun concluded.

Big Brother Yun is truly awesome, Tang Meng was struck with respect once again. He had another huge question which he brought up immediately. “But Big Brother Yun, what if these professionals cheat us because I don’t know anything?”

“There’s no fish in sterile water. It’s impossible to not let others obtain some benefits!” Ling Yun laughed without a care in the world.

“People will only do well for you if they can earn well when they’re with you. Nothing will be successful if you monopolize everything!”

Ling Yun understood humanity too well. He didn’t bother with such trivialities.

“Of course, even if Uncle Tang is on our side, people won’t bother with you unless you fulfill one important criterion.”

Tang Meng understood immediately. This criterion was Ling Yun himself.

Ling Yun spent so much time and effort only to tell Tang Meng one thing. Ling Yun’s assets and money were going to be handled by Tang Meng. Tang Meng would become Ling Yun’s representative!

Wang Hongyuan, Yu Shengjin, Song Zhengyang, the Xue Family, they would only listen to Tang Meng if Ling Yun was behind him!

All of them could give Tang Meng a hard time as long as it wasn’t illegal. But would they dare to cross Ling Yun?

“Go and consolidate all my assets these two days and then establish your Heaven and Earth Group. You don’t need my permission. The Heaven and Earth Group will be yours, you will be the person in charge. I’ll never interfere!” Ling Yun told Tang Meng seriously. He wasn’t going to meddle in worldly affairs. Tang Meng’s eyes brightened up instantly.

“I’ll then inform everyone that you’ll be the one handling all my affairs. They’ll look to you as though you are god, trust me…”

Ling Yun pointed out a brightly lit route for Tang Meng, and he couldn’t be happier.

“Also, Song Zhengyang is a natural at management. His powers aren’t any lesser than Uncle Long. The Lord of Jade, on the other hand, is a natural businessman who upholds rules. I’ve tested him repeatedly on that. You can have them as your right and left hands. Their wits, coupled with Uncle Li and Uncle Tang’s power and the backing of the Green Dragon Sect… Won’t the world be under your feet?”

“Big Brother Yun, it’s under your feet, not mine!” Tang Meng corrected him with a serious look.

“It’s under the feet of us brothers, there’s no need to draw such a clean line.” Ling Yun waved his hand dismissively.

“Do as I say. Hone your skills in Qingshui City first. I have bigger things for you when you’ve gained enough experience!”

What was Qingshui? It was just a sandbox to Ling Yun. He had already set his sights on Huaxia and even the world!

Ling Yun needed to cultivate, and he needed to restore the Ling Family and make it the number one family in Huaxia! To achieve that, he needed not only money but people. Numerous talented people. There would be no need to get out of Qingshui City if he didn’t throw Tang Meng into the deep pool.

“Do you know what to do now?” Ling Yun asked with a smile.

“Yes!”

Ling Yun stood up and gave Tang Meng an encouraging pat on the shoulder. “As long as you understand. Let’s order some food, it’s time for lunch!”
