Shen Qianshu brought Meng Qi and purposely walked around the castle. She saw the old butler in the castle. He was French and was also dressed in the British style. He looked especially like Butler Luther, but he was not like Butler Luther, who looked kind. He exuded an aura which was very cold.
“Gatekeeper!” The butler slightly lowered his head and was very respectful. This person came from the underwater world. He knew his limits very well and was only loyal to the gatekeeper. Even the representative of the gatekeeper was not considered.
“It’s been hard on you for these 20 over years,” Shen Qianshu said. The days would not have passed so smoothly with one person bringing a group of people to guard this stronghold, not knowing whether it would be used.
The butler said, “Gatekeeper has spoken so seriously. This is my responsibility.”
Shen Qianshu nodded her head and said a few encouraging words. She gave one million Euros as a bonus to the castle at one go. The butler finally revealed a smile. “I represent this group of children to thank gatekeeper.”
“Small matter!”
After the butler left, Meng Qi’s face was black. “You are really wealthy!”
“The Black Rose’s gun.” Shen Qianshu smiled as she said. “It’s been more than 20 years, and he’s still guarding this place. It’s really not easy. This money is not given to just him alone. It’s given to all the people in the castle.”
Meng Qi said, “They cannot be subdued by using money.”
“I have not thought of using money to subdue them,” Shen Qianshu said. “But did you see it? When I gave money, he gave me a smiling face. I like this giving and taking way of getting along with subordinates. You are good, I am good, everyone is good. Money is not omnipotent, but without money, will this group of people stay in the Black Rose? From what I know, a Black Rose agent’s annual salary is equivalent to 10 years of a soldier’s annual salary.”
This did not include an approximation.
Finances were allocated by the underwater world and were not under her management. However, she had accounts. This was the benefit of being in Black Rose. Moreover, due to the perfect internal system, every cent as to where the Black Rose’s accounts were spent was clearly recorded.
“Anyway, I don’t have to worry.” Meng Qi sneered. He was not the gatekeeper and did not care about how to subdue people, but he admired Shen Qianshu. Although this kind of measure was tough and unreasonable, it was very useful.
“You wait. They will come tonight!”
“Impossible!” Meng Qi did not believe at all. Only half of the people came. Regardless of whether those people were terrorist attackers or looked like they were establishing an imposing air, they were unwilling to come. It was impossible for them to come because of Shen Qianshu’s words.
Shen Qianshu smiled and did not say anything.
After one hour, Meng Qi looked at the house filled with people. He admired her even more in his heart and also thought indignantly, Hmph, she must be really lucky. Her words actually came true.
The butler held the register and checked the people on the register one by one. This was something that could not be feigned. This was because the verification of the identities of the Black Rose’s agents was done through genetic means. It was different from fingerprint verification and iris verification.
Genetic verification was 100 percent accurate. Even for identical twins, their genes would have subtle differences. Everything was recorded on a small palmtop. Everyone had to accept the genetic verification. There would absolutely be no such thing as sneaking in.
This was also why Major Jack had never sent a person successfully to the Black Rose for many years except for Xiao Qiao and Xiao Jiu. Fortunately, when Xiao Qiao and Xiao Jiu infiltrated the Black Rose, they had always followed Yang Ping and ran around. When they were carrying out their missions, there was never an official meeting, and they did not have any identification checks.
There would be an identification verification in the Black Rose once every two months. Moreover, it was random. Hence, it was very difficult for spies to enter. The butler verified everyone’s identities, including Meng Qi’s and Shen Qianshu’s.
