Chapter 442 - 442 442 No Shortage of Talent

442: Chapter 442: No Shortage of Talent 442: Chapter 442: No Shortage of Talent “If I could take out Kula Cha, would you be able to completely control this region?”

Kula Cha is an even bigger warlord, one who has his own military camps.

So, if this man were eliminated, the surrounding uncontrolled territories would increase.

If our own people don’t take control, should we just hand it over to others?

Even if those people got hold of it, they likely wouldn’t remain quiet; they would continue to attack this area and control an even larger territory.

“If I could leave some people behind, I could recruit them, and there shouldn’t be a big problem then.”

Since there was no problem anymore, the conversation shifted, “Earlier, you mentioned you wanted me to come over, is there something you need?” Zhao Guang still remembered Xu Mo had told him to visit.

Usually, if it weren’t for something important, Xu Mo wouldn’t have done so.

And he didn’t mention it on the phone, so it likely wasn’t anything ordinary.

“It’s a matter of talent.

Master, haven’t you said before that we lack talents?

I’ve gathered some.”

Zhao Guang’s gaze sharpened instantly as he stared at Xu Mo, “Did you capture people on your own?”

This was something he couldn’t tolerate.

Although he also purchased slaves, Zhao Guang certainly didn’t want to become a slave trader.

Whatever his subordinates did, Zhao Guang would set clear boundaries.

Xu Mo panicked, hastily explaining, “Please rest assured, Master.

These people are all evildoers.

Each of them deserves death.

I saw they still had some capabilities, so I controlled them.”

In Myanmar, trafficking people was very popular covertly.

Especially since Xu Mo offered good money, they were even happier to comply.

After all, even if they chopped these people up to sell, it wouldn’t fetch such a price.

They valued the people themselves, while Xu Mo valued the knowledge these people had acquired.

Having some understanding of Zhao Guang, so Xu Mo chose only those who deserved to die.

Some were even directly captured by force, thus contributing some efforts.

“You had better be telling the truth.” Zhao Guang wasn’t worried about Xu Mo lying; under the effect of the contract, he wouldn’t dare to lie in his presence.

Since they were people who deserved death, there was no problem.

“I have already organized all their criminal evidence; I’ll go fetch it now.”

“No need, I believe what you’ve said, after all, there’s the contract.

Forget it, take me to see them.”

Xu Mo promptly led Zhao Guang to a dungeon, which was quite decent underground, not a very poor environment.

After all, in the future, these people might end up working for his master.

You never know which person might become your colleague someday, so Xu Mo didn’t mistreat them too much.

Looking at the biographies of these people, indeed, each one was a talent.

There were talents in economics, in politics, and others with various technical skills.

Even the shipbuilding talents that Zhao Guang had always wanted to find—there were two of them here.

It was hard to imagine that, within this country, such talents were all despicable scumbags.

Perhaps it was because they had enough status and ability that they found it easier to engage in these activities.

Myanmar was virtually lawless, which further provided opportunities for them to engage in such activities.

“I see, they really all deserve death.

You’ve done very well this time; keep up the good work, I need more.” It finally solved the problem of the talent gap.

Zhao Guang pulled out the slave contracts; these were all high-end talents, and some restrictions were needed.

Seeing the slave contracts Zhao Guang pulled out caused Xu Mo to shudder, a fear stemming from deep within his soul.

But then, Xu Mo felt somewhat schadenfreude; now, it was these people’s turn to be unlucky.

Zhao Guang didn’t hesitate, knocking each person out right there, and forcibly contracting them.

“There aren’t many contracts left; if we continue to use them, we’ll need even more.

It seems I really have to learn on my own.

I can’t always be buying; that would raise too much talk,” Zhao Guang thought silently to himself.

Because buying contracts and buying contracted slaves are not the same.

Contracted slaves are bought from slave owners, and any problems are the slave owners’.

But buying contracts means you have to capture slaves yourself, which is considered dirty work for nobles.

Moreover, these things are also quite expensive; if purchased in large quantities, the price isn’t low.

This matter needs to be scheduled soon, but for now, let’s complete contracting these people first.

Having contracted each one, Zhao Guang said to Xu Mo, “You’ll be responsible for the explanations afterwards.

Once they behave, I’ll take them away.

Oh, and if you need assistants, you can pick a few as well.”

The stakes on this side were getting bigger, and relying solely on Xu Mo, Zhao Guang felt it was unreliable.

If he could add some loyal hands, it would make things more convenient.

At least, within the organization here, there’s no need to be as guarded against everyone as others do.

“Thank you for your kindness, Master.

I’ll choose several assistants,” Xu Mo gratefully said, his own abilities were indeed insufficient; managing to get this far was already his limit.

To continue to develop, he needed talents, but if he had to find them himself, he truly wouldn’t be confident.

Because in Myanmar, there were too many people who were betrayed and then eliminated.

But with the contracts controlling them, there was nothing to fear, such people absolutely couldn’t betray.

“Very well, next would be Habog and Kula Cha’s matter.

Gather some intelligence, then tell me.

Oh, and prepare yourself, don’t let anyone know this matter is related to you.”

Xu Mo was officially only associated with Zhao Guang, and Zhao Guang had no relations with those monsters.

To prevent problems, Zhao Guang would absolutely not allow any details to slip.

He didn’t believe that the intelligence networks of those major countries would be like these warlords.

A careless move, and he would definitely be exposed in the sight of those major countries.

With his current capabilities, if a major country was determined to capture him, Zhao Guang was not sure he could escape.

It’s not like he could go to the Otherworld and never come back, right?

Without the various cheats from this world, relying on himself in the Otherworld, he didn’t think he could do very well.

So, he still needed to be careful, wondering when he wouldn’t need to hide himself anymore.

“I will continue to arrange for intelligence gathering; the previous intelligence indeed contains a lot.” Facing such a powerful nearby enemy, no matter how foolish Xu Mo was, he couldn’t just sit and watch.
