Under Control

Chapter 36 Under Control

15 minutes ago, I returned to Le Réseau and took some medicines that I had kept before. Other than that, I also bought a bottle of Absinthe Abv 70% from the internet. I decided to buy this liquor because I saw the habits of the "Boss Snake" who is a heavy drinker. With this liquor I try to get close to him and try to get him drunk.

I did this because I read the information about Control Serum. To use this serum, the target must be in an unconscious or semi-conscious state. After the target is injected with this serum, the target will wake up, and the first person seen by the target can control him/her.

This is the first time I bought something from [X Store], I spent $ 5,000,000 less than 15 minutes to buy this serum. Fortunately, I had prepared this money beforehand. A black box appeared after I paid for the serum, inside the box there are 2 injections containing the serum. I can use this serum for two people.

"I didn't expect that by spending $ 5,000,000 on this serum I could get 2 of it, I thought I would only get 1 serum. Cost effective."

I returned to the thief's hideout with all of it.

"Hurry up and meet the boss, he is very angry to see your work was very slow." Then I entered the Boss's room.

"Boss, I got the medicine you were looking for. I got 15 packs." I put the medicine on his table.

"Who are you? I've never seen you before."

"I just joined because of the invitation from Scarhead Boss."

"Are you subordinate to Scarhead? How can you get more medicine than him? I have often given assignments to Scarhead and I know his skill. If he can't get what I asked for today, how can a new person like you get more than him, huh?"

"Boss, I've done this job a lot in Port Sandlight."

"Oho, it seems your abilities are better than Scarhead's. There aren't many people who can do this job in Port Sandlight, no wonder you can do it easily here. But the information I received from Scarhead, the medicine was stored in a metal box that can't be opened, how do you get it?"

"I didn't get it from the place Scarhead visited, boss. Previously I was with Scarhead, because he is my senior here, he chose to enter a shop called Le Réseau, It's true that the owner lives there. Because I have no other choice, I entered the liquor store next to it, at first I just wanted to take a few bottles of liquor from there."

"But I found some information in that place, from the information I read it turned out that the store owner is the same owner of Le Réseau. I searched everything in there and found 15 packs of medicine in the drawer. I also bring a bottle of liquor that is being sold there boss." I give Absinthe that I brought.

"There's only one bottle of it's kind in there, and it sells for 15 white gold coins, I'm sure this drink can't be found anywhere else boss."

"Good, you have quality. You know I really like booze, knowing the price for this one bottle of liquor is 15 white gold coins makes me feel successful." He immediately opened the bottle and drank one full mouth.

'I hope he doesn't die of alcohol poisoning.' I pray for him because drinking absinthe is like drinking beer.

*Cough* *Cough* *Cough* "What the hell is this shet??" * Cough * "My throat is burning, owgh. I feel dizzy." He sat holding his head, I waited for a few minutes and he started to lose his consciousness because of being drunk.

Seeing this opportunity, I took out the serum that I brought and injected it into the neck of 'Boss Snake'.

Snake woke up after all the serum entered his body, when he looked at me he immediately stood up and bowed his head.

"Snake, listen to my orders. You can call me Boss when there is no one else, you can call me Nine when in a public place."

"The first command, you do your life as usual and do not tell this situation to anyone. Second, I want you to gather information from all places in this town and in other town in Llyne region. Hire someone who can write and record all the information your people have gathered. Find someone who can't betray you and make him the messenger, so I can easily convey my orders."

"Third, stop criminal activities that have a direct impact on you. I don't care if your men do criminal activities as long as it doesn't affect you because I want you to be as much as possible invisible to people. Later, you are in charge of selling information to customers, with that money you can pay your men for the information they submit."

"You also have to send people to take information that has been collected in all the businesses that I run. In addition, they also have the duty to put the information that has been purchased by the customer."

"Boss, what kind of information should I gather?" Snake asked.

"Everything, whether it's market price information, missing people, cheating people, illegitimate sons of nobles, criminal cases, people's names and their information, everything you can gather."

"It doesn't matter if it's just trivial information because from that information you can get more valuable information. Don't underestimate information about someone who is cheating, especially if it's a nobleman. I'm sure their rivals will be happy to buy that information from us."

"But for now, don't sell any information to anyone, just gather it, I'll give you funds to pay your men."

"Alright boss, I will use people who can't betray us to process the information."

"I'll give you a guide on how to organize the information later, so that it's easier to find when someone wants that information, you can teach it to the people you hire later."
