Next, I poured more wine and toasted to Wang Ningyuan, Yuan Bufei, and Sister Thirteen.
These three are the backbone of the Shadow Garb Bureau and will be my key focus in the future.
Wang Ningyuan and Yuan Bufei are both seasoned veterans. When I raised my glass to them, they quickly stood up, looking pleasantly surprised.
Sister Thirteen was a bit more composed; after all, she is a girl. She simply smiled and drank without saying much in response to my toast.
As the evening progressed, everyone relaxed.
Mou Xiaoning and Wang Ningyuan started to spar playfully, while Yuan Bufei cheered them on, and Sister Thirteen quietly enjoyed her food.
I looked around at everyone and felt a sense of satisfaction.
Although the Shadow Garb Bureau had just been established, everyone showed high quality and worked together harmoniously.
I believe that given some time, this team will become my most capable assistants.
The banquet lasted for two hours and ended just before Hour Xu.
After everyone dispersed, I kept Mou Xiaoning behind.
"Sir!"
"Xiao Ning, tomorrow you should visit the Nanjian Government Office more often to see how the Yingzhou people are reacting to Qianhu's arrest."
"Yes, sir!"
"Ningyuan and Thirteen will continue monitoring Dafu Market to prevent any changes."
"Yes, sir!"
"Bufei will stay with me at home, ready to act at any moment!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Alright, you can go now!"
"Understood!"
Mou Xiaoning left, leaving me alone in the room.
I sat quietly, contemplating my next move.
Now, I had successfully infiltrated the Shadow Garb Bureau and gained the recognition of many.
Next, I needed to find a way to gather intelligence and strive to complete my mission as soon as possible.
However, this would not be easy.
Nanjiang was the domain of the Yingzhou People, and the Spy Organization here was very tightly knit, making intelligence work quite challenging.
Moreover, this was just the beginning; it was uncertain what difficulties lay ahead.
Nevertheless, I wasn't too worried.
I had a feeling that although this mission would be tough, it was not impossible to accomplish.
As long as I remained cautious and actively sought opportunities, I would surely succeed.
The next day at work, I felt the enthusiasm of my colleagues.
"Lord Ye, good morning!"
"Lord Ye, congratulations!"
"Lord Ye, please treat us tonight!"
"Definitely!"
I smiled and exchanged pleasantries with everyone.
These people were all officials from the Department of Land and were at the same level as me.
When I first joined the Military Affairs Office and the Department of Land, these individuals wouldn't even spare me a glance.
Even if we occasionally crossed paths, they would merely snort coldly with an air of arrogance.
But now, they greeted me with smiles and even a hint of flattery.
The reason was simple: I had just been appointed as a minor official, and I understood the rules.
In the future, when I am out on official duties, I will not forget everyone; this is the charm of gold.
Of course, I know in my heart that I owe this to Mou Xiaoning.
If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have gained the recognition of my colleagues so quickly.
Just as everyone was exchanging pleasantries, the Confidential Secretary of the Southern River Military Affairs Office approached.
"Lord Ye, you are requested to go to the Assembly Hall immediately!"
"Please lead the way!"
I hurriedly followed the Confidential Secretary to the Assembly Hall.
Lord Lin Feng is in Nanjiang and is an absolute figure of authority.
He controls the entire Spy Organization in Nanjiang and holds the power of life and death.
Therefore, I did not dare to be negligent at all.
Soon, I arrived at the Assembly Hall.
"My lord, Shadow Garb Bureau Ye Yifan requests an audience!"
"Come in!"
