After an indeterminate period of silence, the room had grown somewhat oppressive due to the lack of conversation.
Finally, Song Taojie couldn't stand it any longer and turned his face to look at Chen Kai.
"They seem pretty pitiful from what they've said, how about we take them in? Or to be precise, it's you who takes them in."
"After all, I'm nothing more than your assistant. The main decision still lies with you."
Chen Kai silently nodded in agreement.
"Actually, I've been considering the same issue all along. Even though they're all northern riffraff, their strength is extremely limited."
"But as for us, who are exactly in need of manpower, they could be considered as an added workforce."
Hearing Chen Kai say this, the two men immediately lit up with joy, expressing their profuse gratitude non-stop.
Chen Kai shook his head gently.
"How much do you know about the Li Family's influence in the south?"
Immediately, the smiles on the two men's faces froze.
