"Oh?" Fang Zhen raised an eyebrow.
'Other identities would be one thing, but the Hongmen...'
"Is the information reliable?" he asked.
"I can't say for sure. It's all hearsay from the underworld. I heard my former boss mention it, but he was vague about the details," said He Yilin.
Fang Zhen thought for a moment, then said, "Alright, contact Chen Baokun. I won't be involved directly. I'll give you a price, and you can handle the negotiations."
He Yilin seemed to consider it for a moment before replying, "Alright."
Fang Zhen wasn't keen on getting too close to Chen Baokun, mainly because he didn't want to draw any attention. Having He Yilin handle the talks would create a firewall. It would also be a good way to test He Yilin's abilities and see if he was truly trustworthy.
'This connection to Chen Baokun is worth keeping. I can activate it when the time is right.'
'If Chen Baokun really does have that status, he could be a great help in the future.'
