"Isn't business just like this? You need something, I need something, there's no need to beat around the bush." Huai Shi shrugged. "You've got to be thick-skinned sometimes, no matter how outrageous the sweet talk, you have to say it, or how else do you make money?"
Lin Wei looked at him fearlessly, "But there are so many Kyoto gangs... Why should I work with you?"
Huai Shi laughed, "Obviously because the Yingzhou Phylogeny can't take me down."
As long as the legitimacy of the Tanbo Inner Circle remains for a day, and as long as Huai Shi still carries the cover of the Astronomical Society, the Yingzhou Phylogeny shouldn't dream of using any illegitimate means against Huai Shi.
This is truly a nation within a nation, a sanctuary every outsider dreams of.
If the Yingzhou Branch wants to make a move, that's even simpler. Do they think Luo Su and the Ivory Tower are pushovers?
