It was quite a distance from Glorious Divine Continent to Hidden Dragon Sea. After the secretary walked out, Lin Qingtian looked at the time and made a slight estimate. Even if Xu Shangfeng ordered the driver to speed up and rush back to Hidden Dragon Sea, it would still take about half an hour.
Wang Tianxiong came early because he obviously had something else to talk to him about.
Lin Qingtian actually didn't like Wang Tianxiong very much. He admired Wang Tianxiong's persistence and arrogance, as well as his tens of years of devoting himself to the empire and never retreating or complaining about the battles with other countries in the Dark World. However, he didn't like Wang Tianxiong's stance.
However, because of his different standpoints, Wang Tianxiong's qualities that were worthy of admiration and respect in Lin Qingtian's eyes had all become Lin Qingtian's malice.
No doubt about it, Wang Tianxiong was a king-type giant, The better he does, the more prestige you have in the empire's secret service, This also meant that the more power the royal family had in the empire's secret service, For many years, because of Wang Tianxiong's words in the empire's secret service system, the southwest faction that had never given up on seeking the status of the secret service system had suffered a lot. Even Lin Qingtian himself, who held the commanding heights of the empire's supreme leader, had to endure several suffocations against Wang Tianxiong, let alone the others.
However, despite his disgust, Lin Qingtian had no choice but to be courteous and respectful to Wang Tianxiong. After all, Wang Tianxiong was already on the verge of retirement. No matter how much Lin Qingtian disliked these meritorious heroes who were about to retire, he could not show them any face.
More importantly, According to the plan of the south-west faction, Over the next five years, Over the course of twenty years, the southwestern factions would work hard to expand their territory within the empire 's secret service, Wang Tianxiong and Ye Chunqiu's disciples said, He's a top veteran of the empire's secret service, And because of the position, Lin Qingtian didn't expect them to help the southwest faction, But Lin Qingtian also had a request. He still hoped that Wang Tianxiong and Ye Chunqiu could focus on the overall situation of the empire, Balancing the power of the empire's secret service, As long as the balance of power between the royal and southwestern factions could be reached within the Empire's secret service system, it meant that the southwestern faction had passed the dangerous period that followed Lin Qingtian's retirement. To be exact, the southwestern faction had stabilized its footing and had the qualifications to continue playing games with the other factions.
To put it bluntly, what Lin Qingtian wanted was not for Ye Chunqiu and Wang Tianxiong to help Lin Xuanyuan, who was about to ascend to the throne, build up his prestige without any bottom line, but to suppress the elites of other martial arts forces.
Ye Chunqiu was a top elder of the empire, In terms of seniority, At present, there really didn't seem to be anyone who could compete with Ye Chunqiu, And Wang Tianxiong was Ye Chunqiu's disciple, Without exaggeration, How many years have passed since the empire was founded, Ye Chunqiu and his apprentice were in control of the empire's secret service system. and how many years it has been in operation, How terrifying was this prestige, Even Lin Qingtian didn't dare to imagine, But he was sure that, If Wang Tianxiong and Ye Chunqiu really wanted to help Lin Xuanyuan, If he wanted to suppress the other martial arts forces, Not to mention the three World-shaking Sovereigns, Even if there were thirty of them, Wang Tianxiong and Ye Chunqiu also suppressed him so much that he couldn't breathe. After all, even though the empire's secret service system was hidden, it was still within the system. There were rules that everyone recognized. When Lin Qingtian's strength was no longer enough to rewrite the rules, Wang Tianxiong and Ye Chunqiu could easily kill opponents who were stronger than them with the rules based on their seniority.
This was definitely not what Lin Qingtian wanted.
So he secretly made a deal with the Ye family.
The so-called deal was naturally not to negotiate with Ye Nianlun face to face. Everyone was clear about what you wanted and what I wanted. Instead, it was an obscure display on different occasions, allowing both sides to achieve a certain degree of tacit understanding.
Recently, the higher-ups of the empire had noticed that Lin Qingtian seemed to be getting used to keeping silent on some important matters, or respecting Ye Nianlun 's opinion. Ye Nianlun seemed to be taking over the power of the supreme leader in advance, so it was only natural that everything was too excessive.
Under such circumstances, Lin Qingtian finally received feedback from the Ye Clan. Moreover, this kind of feedback was quite satisfactory to him, and the cooperation between the two sides could be considered more pleasant.
The more he treated Wang Tianxiong, the more courteous he would be. After all, he supported Ye Nianlun and wanted the support of the Ye Clan and Wang Tianxiong. It was definitely not a good thing to gain some strength from the secret service system and provoke Wang Tianxiong.
Lin Qingtian took a deep breath and took out a teacup to fill it. Before he could put down the teapot, Wang Tianxiong's figure had already appeared at the door.
"Fuehrer, you're in a good mood. Are you not handling your official business?"
Wang Tianxiong walked in with a file bag and sat on the sofa beside Lin Qingtian. He said with a smile.
"With some capable colleagues, I, the Fuehrer, will be at ease."
Lin Qingtian smiled and said, This was supposed to be a sentence that could easily cause misunderstandings and even wariness among others, But now, he smiled and said it without any negative intentions. Wang Tianxiong didn't think too much about it. He took out a cigarette and handed it to Lin Qingtian. He smiled and said, "I can't see other people's leisure. I know that the Fuehrer has been doing a lot of work recently, so I came to report to you. There's something I need you to decide."
"You..."
Lin Qingtian smiled and shook his head. However, his gaze was somewhat concerned, "You have the final say in the matter of the secret service system. Why is there a big issue to be discussed this time?"
At this stage, he could ask any of the giants to report to him. After hearing about it, he could ask them to communicate with Ye Nianlun , but Wang Tian Xiong was the only one who could not.
After all, the secret service system that Wang Tianxiong controlled was his main goal for many years to come. He let go of other things in exchange for a more comfortable layout in the secret service system. If he even let go of this, then he would really become a bald commander.
"Whether it's big or not, it's not small, but it's very meaningful and involves a lot of things. It's about scientific research."
Wang Tianxiong nodded his head, but his tone was somewhat serious. He handed a file bag to Lin Qingtian and said, "Take a look. The Royal Family Biological Laboratory has finally developed a new gene potion called Immortal. Under normal circumstances, it can extend a person's life by 20 years."
"What?"
Lin Qingtian stood up abruptly, and the tea in front of him was scattered all over the ground.
Extend a person's life by twenty years!
Twenty years!
What did this mean?
No matter how good Lin Qingtian's calmness was, when he heard this news, his heart trembled and he completely lost his composure.
"Yes, twenty years of life."
Wang Tianxiong nodded with certainty.
'"This is definitely the greatest discovery. This is simply … we can get the formula for the immortal potion? What does the royal family want? You can give it to us. You have to bring it over!" Lin Qingtian's breathing quickened unconsciously as he replied, "This is definitely the greatest discovery. This is simply … we can get the formula for the immortal potion!"
Formula...
Wang Tianxiong looked at him strangely. He thought to himself that he was indeed worthy of being the head of state. He had to obtain this kind of magnanimity and courage. However, his IQ seemed to be a bit overpaid. This kind of thing, you even said that it was the greatest discovery, yet you still wanted the recipe? Do you have no brains or do you think the royal family has no brains?
"There's no need to think about the recipe. The royal family will definitely not give it to you, and it's impossible to give it to you. Fuehrer, if you were the emperor, would you be willing to give this recipe to the empire?"
Lin Qingtian was stunned. If it was him...
Needless to say, even he would definitely not give it to him.
But even if he could understand it rationally, Lin Qingtian was still a little disappointed. He laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Indeed, that's the truth. So, the royal family wants to make a deal with us?"
"Yes, but to do business with us, It's not a recipe, but a finished immortal potion, Of course, there are formulas, It's not an immortal recipe, but some recipes for other imperial potions, The royal family wants to exchange us for some materials, And some of our technologies, This matter, I knew it a few days ago, The reason I didn't report to you first, because he was sorting out the materials, In addition, he had to negotiate with the royal family, Look at their influential needs. This transaction can be made big or small. It mainly depends on how you decide. A few days ago, the immortal medicine was still lacking in the last experiment. As for now, I have received definite news that the experiment has succeeded. So, our transaction can start if you agree. From my personal point of view, I am willing to support this transaction. "
