In Jack's home, in the connecting area between the kitchen and the living room on the first floor, many dishes were already placed on the round white dining table. Four people were sitting around the dining table, waiting to eat.
Misty held a small ceramic bowl and carefully filled a bowl of red spicy soup for Lin Mo, Kitagawa Hao and Jack. The tempting smell floated from the soup, and the fragrance was tangy.
"Let's try it. Misty learned the soup-making skills from my mother. The pure Mexican spicy soup is absolutely delicious." Jack said with a hearty smile, pointing to the pot of hot water on the table with his tachyon.
Spicy spicy soup.
With a smile on his lips, Lin Mo took the hot soup handed over by Misty.
He thanked her and began to carefully taste the bowl of "specialty spicy soup" that was passed down to Jack's mother and occasionally mentioned in the game.
Just taking a sip on his lips, Lin Mo felt a strong spicy aroma, and then a mixed taste of sweet and spicy. The soup was mixed with small pieces of meat. The moment he swallowed it, he almost felt like it was in his mouth.
change.
In just this small mouthful of soup, Lin Mo could taste the delicious meat flavor and taste the spicy excitement, as if a stream of heat poured into his body.
"It tastes good." Lin Mo gave the simplest compliment.
"Not bad." Kitagawa Hiroshi commented with a smile.
"Awesome, Misty, you already have some of my mother's skills." Jack glanced at Misty and gave a thumbs up.
Misty waved her hand and said humbly: "My cooking skills are far inferior to my mother's. There are other dishes here. Let's finish them first."
After drinking the hot soup in his hand, Lin Mo also turned his attention to the other dishes on the table.
The food in front of you is all Mexican-specific dishes. The sweet corn and juicy barbecue are very appetizing at first sight. In addition, there are salad-like dishes and scones, and there is also a dish in front of everyone.
of hot sauce.
Lin Mo ate very enthusiastically.
Indeed, as Jack said, this lunch tastes very strong, and every bite of food in your mouth seems to make you full of strength.
Although the taste is a bit spicy, it is still very good if you try it once in a while.
...
After the meal, Misty stayed on the first floor, tidily and virtuously cleaned the bowls and tableware on the dining table, and helped Jack with housework as much as possible, while Jack led Lin Mo and Kitagawa Hao to the third floor.
office.
"Sister Misty, don't you have to go to her divination room today?" Lin Mo took the time to ask during the break in the process of going upstairs.
Jack smiled: "Mainly because she heard that you were going to be a guest, so she took a rare vacation, and gave the key to Lao Weitou, letting him open a clinic by himself."
"This is the benefit of being your own boss. You can take a break whenever you want." Hiroshi Kitagawa also appropriately interjected.
When I arrived on the third floor, I opened the office door and saw a bright room.
There are exquisite wooden tables, bookcases for decoration, and a few green plants in the corners. The sunshine outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is strong...
Lin Mo clicked his tongue and said in surprise, "I didn't expect you to manage the office in such a stylish way."
"This is all Misty's credit." Jack did not take credit and walked to the center of the room, where there happened to be a few sofa chairs for guests and a few bottles of unopened beer.
Seeing the logos on the shells of these bottles of beer, Lin Mo couldn't help but smile:
"In other people's offices, I usually only see tea for entertaining guests, but you're so good, you actually put tequila here. Do you want to get others drunk, so that it will be easier to discuss business?"
"I usually drink this by myself. This office is also where I occasionally work at home. If I meet others, I usually choose to go to my mother's bar." Jack shook his head and started from his desk.
He brought over a hot water bottle and poured a glass of water for each of them.
"As soon as you've eaten and drank enough, just drink some cold water. Don't be too disgusted with it," he muttered.
Lin Mo and Kitagawa Hiroshi are naturally inseparable.
The two sat on the sofa. Lin Mo picked up the cup and drank some water, moistened his mouth and tongue, and then said:
"Now that we're all here, it's time to talk about some serious business. In fact, I've had a doubt since I first entered the house. Jack, do you get along well with the old priest now?"
Father - Sebastian, the best and most outstanding middleman in the Heywood area, and his daily identity is a priest. He often chants sentences similar to prayers and has a high prestige among the Valentino Gang.
.
Regarding the character of this middleman, Lin Mo could only say that his impression was pretty good due to his experience in playing games.
In Lin Mo's expectation, if Jack really wanted to establish his own business in the Heywood area and become famous, then contact with the priest would definitely be indispensable in the process of cultivating his own power.
If the other party has strong hostility, Lin Mo wouldn't mind letting Beichuan Hao and Jack join forces, and then use Rogge's connections to suppress the priest.
But now it seems that this old man is quite smart.
He should have realized that there must be someone behind Jack's sudden rise, and it was impossible for him to fall out with Jack casually.
Since they cannot fall out, from the priest's perspective, there are only two options left: cooperation and non-interference.
It can be seen that the priest finally chose to cooperate.
Jack thought about it for a while and said: "The two of us get along pretty well. He is still responsible for most of the commissioned business in the Heywood area. I have no interest in the work of a middleman. I am only responsible for some of the affairs at the moment. My subordinates are mainly Mann."
team, and several other subordinates.”
"So, you didn't infringe on his old man's business?" Lin Mo asked.
"No, this is what we have agreed upon. Besides, he is an old middleman. If I rashly get involved in his business scope, it is impossible for me to be more professional than him." Jack said with a smile:
"But, the commissions he accepts usually don't dare to be related to the company, but I have your support after all, so I can still take on the orders that he doesn't dare to take, and I also get them done smoothly.
They were assigned to suitable mercenaries, and so far they haven’t left any traces.”

"By the way, I have also recruited two new people with good abilities. Let me give you a heads-up. The first one is the cybermaniac who was cured by Regina. Now he is also working under me.
, I named him Gecko, and the other was a very capable hacker, nicknamed T-bug, and I assigned both of them to Mann's team," Jack said.
Lin Mo was a little surprised when he heard this.
He never thought that T-bug, the hacker who assisted the protagonists V and Jack in the early stages of the game, would appear in this way.
However, this doesn't seem to be surprising. With Jack's current status, recruiting a hacker to cooperate is not a big problem. Moreover, in the game, T-bug will also become a teammate of Jack and V.
The addition of t-bug can only be said to be unexpected but reasonable.
"So you can say that you have strong troops now?" Lin Mo asked teasingly.
Jack waved his hand and said angrily: "It's just so so. A list involving the company can't be so easy to handle. I have a particularly difficult commission on hand right now."
"Can you tell me?" Lin Mo asked.
Jack glanced at Lin Mo, thought for a while, and subconsciously lowered his voice and said:
"Actually, I intercepted this order from another middleman, the middleman named Faraday, Mann's old employer."
"What's the specific situation?" Lin Mo frowned.
Jack said: "Someone at Military Technology asked Faraday to investigate a mysterious research project of Arasaka Company. Then, Faraday originally wanted to ask Mann for help to complete this matter, but he did not expect that Mann was already mine.
The news came to me smoothly."
"There are always people who disagree with each other in a company. Military Technology is such a large company that this situation cannot be avoided, so I used my connections to find another middle-level employee within Military Technology and borrowed his hand to take over the job.
Same commission."
"So things are not going well now?" Lin Mo touched his chin and asked thoughtfully.
"Oh, the progress is not very smooth, but Faraday's side is also so-so." Jack sneered.
I see...
Lin Mo's smile became even brighter, he coughed a few times and pretended to say:
"Jack, now you have a marginalized person in front of you who has nothing to do. His ability is still very good. As a middleman, don't you have any ideas?"
Jack was startled at first, but then he was overjoyed and asked, "Are you willing to help?"
"I haven't moved my muscles for a long time. This time...is just an opportunity." Lin Mo said with a smile.
No matter how difficult the commissioned task Jack mentioned is, it should not be a problem for him now that his mind and body are fully developed.
